    We sat here twice and ate skewers, and we liked it but we thought that the employees were not very polite. When we ate there last time, we saw that we could order by phone and got their numbers. We just called to order and they hung up on us because we were speaking in English. We were going to use translate but they didn't wait and hung up again on our second call too. What they did was really rude. Not only will we not go again, it is a place we definitely do not recommend to avoid encountering rude behavior.

    Everything about this place was awesome. It’s in a great location, the food was delicious, and the staff are so friendly and welcoming. I had such a good time just hanging out, talking to the staff while I waited for my takeaway, and watching the skewers be prepared. We tried all of them except for the pork belly…it isn’t possible to pick a favorite, they are all excellent and the mint yoghurt sauce is perfect. We had 10-12 skewers, pita, bread, potatoes, and sauces and it was only €25-26. Absolutely recommend this place, we will be returning multiple times while we are in Athens.

    Excellent souvlaki, which you can easily buy per skewer, so you don't end up with too much food. Great value for money, quick service, delicious.

    Delicious pork souvlaki fresh from the grill. Comes with a portion of seasoned fries and a piece of bread as well. For only €1.80 per stick, this makes a perfect snack!

    Just as the name suggests, the best meat skewers in town! During my 7 day vacation I was here several times abd the food was always amazing. I've tried the lamb, pork and the kebab as well, all of them were exceptional. If I ever come back to Athens, it's gonna be most likely because I am missing this place. 😄

    Superb place for souvlaki in Athens, a must to visit. The kebab one in particular with the yogurt sauce was our favorite!

    As a Greek person who visits frequently, these are my favourite souvlakis in all of Greece. I have 2 reccomendations for everyone who goes: 1. Try every variety of meat they have and don't order extra sides as the bread/sauce/fries that come with the souvlakia are enough. 2. Take your food to go and eat on the walls of the old Olympic stadium across the street.

    I love souvlaki. I've sampled souvlaki all over Greece and I can honestly say that Elvis makes mouthwatering souvlaki. The meat is grilled to perfection. In addition, they make fabulous french fries. This place deserves to be called The King of Souvlaki.

    Great quality meat for the price! We tried the pork, kebab, chicken and lamb and definitely the lamb and chicken were our favorite.

    best souvlaki in Athens! Excellent service and very kind staff

  • 5/5 nick f. 4 months ago on Google • 45 reviews
    This place has been a staple in the area for quite some time now. If you happen to be nearby I would definitely stop by and try their famous skewers. The only downside is that it can get really crowded with no place for seating as they have very few tables, and also parking is very hard sometimes. However the food tastes great and I would also say it is value for money. I would suggest trying all 3 of the skewers they offer and see which one you prefer. However, of on doubt, you can't go wrong with the pork.

  • 5/5 Julia G. 4 months ago on Google • 25 reviews
    Named one of the best souvlaki places. You’ll choose from four different skewers: chicken, lamb kebab, cubed pork, and pork sausage. I love this place. Easy to order and affordable. The meat is delicious and you will not be disappointed.

  • 3/5 Yoghurt L. 4 months ago on Google • 22 reviews
    It’s a cute place with a nice vibe. Great customer service. The meat skewer was nice, but the chips were stone cold, which is deceptive because it looks like everything is cooked in front of you. It was very disappointing in the end. Before you take your food, make sure you check that it’s all hot.

  • 2/5 eija jaraisi (. 6 months ago on Google • 13 reviews
    Huge disappointment, everything has changed, nothing is like it used to be:( High price for less than average meat. Take away came with 8 pieces of French fries even we ordered 8 meat skewers, unheard of ... Service... It used to be one of the best places to eat, pity. Although never too late to turn around, let's hope.

    The best Souvlaki we've had during our stay in Athens! We decided to go twice and honestly if you're around the area then you need to hit this spot up! We got one of each type of Souvlaki as we wanted to try it all! For the price and what's offered (you also get some fries and bread along with it) you cannot go wrong! If we're ever around again I don't think we could stop ourselves from going back 😅

    Every time when we come to Athens this is one of our favorite places to enjoy traditional Greek barbecue . We love #Elvis

  • 5/5 E E. 8 months ago on Google
    The best “kalamakia” you’ll find in all of Athens. Elvis offers only kalamakia which are incredible. Very simple, but truly delicious along with delicious fries and pita. Ieben though there’s not much seating later in the day, it’s located in a very lively area in the city which makes it enjoyable to even have a bite on foot. It gets busy very fast, sometimes service is slow… so make sure to visit at an appropriate time!!! :)

    Very juicy and tasty meat skewers! I recommend the pork and lamb ones. Friendly staff. Wished they gave more chips though. They were delicious too.

  • 5/5 Víd D. 11 months ago on Google

  • 5/5 Rosina I. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic juicy meat skewers served with delicious potatoes and bread. Very good prices Offers only roasted meat skewers and not ‘pita souvlaki’ which makes this place unique Place to sit informally outside

  • 5/5 Shahar R. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious 🤤 we had the hot dogs and the chicken. Both were really good and large portions. Very kid friendly :)

    One of the best places for souvlaki in Athens! We tried the pork and the chicken souvlaki! The meat is juicy and delicious.Always enjoying there!! Friendly staff, nice spot ! Tips: Great value for money, quick service, delicious. You can easily buy per skewer as well. You can have your order done and seat outside (since there are not tables inside), or to-go. The place stays open until late (until there are not skewers left ) Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person €5–10

  • 5/5 Υannis K. 1 year ago on Google
    The best souvlaki in Athens. Amazing quality and delicious taste. Note: They don’t serve the meat wrapped in a pita bread.

  • 5/5 Yuval A. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Nicholas P. 2 years ago on Google
    Great meat skewers and chips. We loved the lamb and chicken thighs! Don’t forget to order yogurt sauce with your meal.

  • 5/5 Milica S. 2 years ago on Google
    Best kebab in Athens, juicy, tasty and affordable. On the side you will get homemade chips, lemon and a piece of bread. Must try while in Athens!

  • 5/5 Ettore B. 2 years ago on Google
    One of my favorites spots (so far) in Athens. The meat is juicy and delicious, I tried the pork and the kebab, both incredible. Each skewer follows fries and some bread, simply awesome. They’re always full and there are no tables inside, get your order done and seat outside, or to-go.

    "Skewered. One sympathizes." James Bond, Casino Royal. This is what you're getting here, and once you've tried it, you'll be coming back for more repeatedly. If you're easily addicted to great food, you've been warned.

  • 5/5 Dion K. 2 years ago on Google
    You must go there and enjoy the atmosphere..

  • 5/5 Hubert P. 2 years ago on Google
    I love that kind of places. 100% of the street food spirit. If you are a backpacker, even a bit grown up and with kids now, it’s the place you will fall in love with. Food is simple and delicious, people friendly and willing to really notice you, not only serve great food :) h

    If you ‘re visiting Aθens this is the place to eat a famous Athenian kalamaki 🤤 Hint: shop mostly stays open until 01:00 when the Kalamakia are out of stock

  • 5/5 mateja j. 11 months ago on Google • 1 review
    We came back several times! The Lamb skewers are super tender. The taste as well as the price is unmatched! On fridays there is also a market with local farmers on the street. Great flair!

👍 A place where locals eat. Not a tourist spot. Food is spicy and full of flavor. Beware the spicy sojouk is actually the hottest food we tried in Greece.
