    🐷 Nice menu, beautiful place and polite staff ✅ good quality ✅ clean place ✅ fast service We visit this place this week. It’s our first visit and we want something fast. This store it’s self service. The menu it was really nice. We try chicken gyros 🐓, file of cheese 🧀 and chicken bacon 🥓. It’s tasteful and really fast prepared. The only bad thing is the prices. For some things it’s a kind of high. 💲💲💲

    Super tasty and definitely recommend you to check this place out in the city center of Nicosia. Staff is very useful to assist you on your needs they have plenty of dishes even vegan so go for it and it will not disappoint you. Portions are big and prices are very reasonable 😉

    If you want to have some good juicy souvlaki, this is the right place:) I went on a Sunday to this one because the other restaurant they have in Ledras closes at 3:30 and opens again at 7:30. I had the chicken souvlaki, graviera (cheese sticks) and curly fries. They were really tasty, highly recommended.

    A pig wearing a bowtie was already enough to drag me in. Pork souvlaki portion ordered moments later confirmed it was a good choice of a lunch place.

    Amazing food, amazing service! We had the meat platter for two and it was a lot of food, so tasty - especially the yellow sauce! The location is great as well, right next to the square/moat and central bus station. Would recommend!

    We went there for a meal today and had an amazing time. Scrumptious food with excellent service. Isabella served us as it was out first time she explained the menu to us and how it worked. She made our meal experience better with a compliment dessert on the house. We highly recommend this place for your next meal ☺️

    Best value for money choice in the area. Prices are relatively good, they serve you fast. Their service is also really good, even if always packed. Big drawback that everything is oily. Even souvlaki! So not many healthy options there

    For an "express" restaurant, the taste and seasoning is perfect, the starters and meat is well prepared, the portions are generous and the staff was friendly. I can recommend this place for a quick meal.

    Very delicious food, portion for two people about 20€. One minus was self-service, You have to order and take food from another floor We ordered Meat platte and it is enough for two people.

    My favorite food to eat in the whole city of Nicosia! Portion size and price ratio is great and the food is delicious. All of the workers there are very sweet and you can also get a free dessert after your meal which is rare...:') ♡ thank you!

    Very fast order management, food was delicious and HUMONGOUS portions made us unable to finish everything! Fortunately we were provided with takeaway boxes and will have breakfast ready for tomorrow.

    Our friends who live in Paphos took us to this place and we made sure to come back again. The food is delicious, these were some of the best meat dishes I tried on the island. We tried all the chicken options they had and everything was 10/10. The prices are very good, around 10-12€ per person. The presentation of the food was also nice and the service was pretty quick. You order the food yourself, pay for it and then they buzz you whenever it’s ready. The interior is nice inside, but the only downside was the amount of noice there was, especially from the children screaming around. 🥲 If you can, grab a seat outside, it’s much more pleasant. Anyways, the food is definitely worth it!

    Good fast Greek souvlaki and gyros. Very modern style Greek fast food place worth to try. Prices are a bit higher than normal.

    Fantastic staff who know their products. Very knowledgeable about allergies such as gluten free options and vegetarian dishes etc. Tasty food at very reasonable prices. Probably the only positive thing at Platia Eleftheria Square! A good Greek and Cypriot blend fast food with slow food twists.

    A very beautiful place to eat and drink. It's Self-service (you need to order at the bar). The atmosphere is nice and the servers are kind. The food is amazing, we took a plate of meat for 2 people and we eat 4. Amazing food. I strongly recommend!

    Beautiful place with incredible views and what’s most important - meals. Self service, kind and polite staff. Dishes were huge and exceptional. I took one star off because of some hair in food which shouldn’t be there. To sum up I highly recommend this place - especially for big hungers.

  • 5/5 Nestor P. 1 year ago on Google
    Loved it. Food freshly cooked to order, incredible. Option to eat I or takeaway. Next time I'm in Nicosia will visit the restaurant round the corner

    The best food ever! Excellent service! Good portions for very good prices! You can't go to Nicosia and not eat there!

  • 5/5 Marcin S. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was very delicious and there was a lot of great positions in menu so everyone could chose something for himself. Also we got panna cotta as a small gift from restaurant which was very nice. Surely one to recommend in Nicosia!

  • 5/5 Tamara C. 11 months ago on Google
    Very good food (the pork was melting in your mouth, the chicken was juicy and well seasoned), nice music, clean restaurant and toilet. So all in all very good

  • 4/5 Valeria F. 2 years ago on Google
    Came here after a day of exploring Nicosia back when I was there, and got the Halloumi with tomatoes in pita! Price was okay and portion was quite large, felt quite full. Outdoor seating area has a nice view of the main square, very much happening place. To get in they ask for Covid vaccine passes same as everywhere else in the country establishments.

    On Sunday, my family and I were in your restaurant, we’ve been visiting for a long time, but this time everything was terrible, the boorish attitude of the waiters who don’t want to fulfill their duties, my son sat down at the table while I was making an order, and the girl waitress came and told him to leave another floor to the top, while everyone, upon receiving our order, we sat and waited for plates, which no one brought, we ate already cold food because no one gave us cutlery and glasses until we went looking for it ourselves. Thank you very much for ruining dinner and mood, if I could give a rating of 0, I would gladly do it!

  • 5/5 Tigran K. 2 years ago on Google
    Been there three times in less than two days. This alone should mean enough! The food is good and is very affordable. An amazing place for a quick lunch or dinner. However, the space outside may also be wonderful for a longer evening with friends and beer!

  • 1/5 Von R. 7 months ago on Google
    I tried and gave them another chance but this time My recent visit to this restaurant left me extremely dissatisfied. Despite arriving ahead of others in line, I watched in disbelief as the person who ordered after me received their food promptly. This was a frustrating and disappointing experience. To make matters worse, I must commend the cashier for their exceptional service. They were polite, efficient, and clearly doing their best. It's a shame that the same level of dedication to customer satisfaction didn't extend to the kitchen staff. It's evident that this restaurant has significant issues with their kitchen operations and food delivery process. While the cashier did an excellent job, I ultimately judge a restaurant by the quality of its food and overall service. Regrettably, I won't be returning until they can resolve these issues. My experience at Piatsa Gourounaki was far from satisfactory. Despite ordering a simple sandwich, I found myself waiting for an excessive 20 minutes, which negatively impacted my overall dining experience. The lack of productivity in the kitchen was evident, and it felt like the staff were not taking their responsibilities seriously, leading to unnecessary delays. Improvements in their efficiency and professionalism are necessary to enhance customer satisfaction and encourage repeat visits

    WOOW! This was the best food experience in Cyprus. The meat plate was amazing, the staff was extremely friendly! We got so many gifts and so much love, that we loved this place. Everyone should go to this place if they are in Cyprus. <3
