We were hungry and tired after a visit to Kunsthalle and this restaurant was practically opposite. Even though we were not necessarily craving Greek food, the menu seemed very varied and so we did not look further. Shortly after we had sat down, the proprietor or senior boss came to our table and greeted us with a handshake. Drinks and food arrived very quickly and my lamb was very nice, if suspiciously hot (microwave?). The deliberate burn-marks on the chicken filet in my Mum's salad also looked a tad "over-engineered", but she was pretty happy with it even though she would have preferred a vinaigrette dressing rather than a yoghurt/mayo one. All in all, probably not the most sophisticated culinary experience to be had in Bregenz, but good enough and at very decent prices. Would revisit when in town again.

After a morning in a natural habitat in Austria, just like ver the German border, we stopped by Lindau for lunch. My sister recommended this Greek restaurant to us for lunch. We were immediately seated and soon after ordered our food. Our girls had the children's chicken nuggets, my sister had ordered a Greek baked cheese for starters while my husband and I shared octopus. That was delicious. For the main my sister had souvlaki, my husband had trout and I ordered grilled squid with cheese and tomatoes with tomato rice. The food was cooked very well. No complaints from us.
3. Taverna Ikaros

This small comfortable place a few minutes' walk from the art-oriented center of Bregenz is a nice evocation of a taverna in some small Greek town: it resembles some we ate in on the island of Hydra. It's very unlike the big fancy Greek restaurant opposite the museum -- a completely different feel.A very small place seating maybe sixteen or twenty people tops -- plain tables and ladderback chairs, everything blue and white, with a handpainted mural on one wall. The owner/host has a little English, enough to handle orders: most of our interactions with him were in German. We used the German menu, so I'm not sure if there were English-language ones, but the host helped us with anything we weren't sure about. Nothing at all fancy about the food, but this isn't fast food: the owner takes the right amount of time and care over it. Last time we were there my husband had the kokkinisto )a pork stew in tomato sauce with rice on the side): I had spit-grilled lamb skewers. (I'm not a big Greek-food fan, though my husband is; mostly I stick to grilled meat when eating Greek, and these were terrific.)White and rose retsina to drink, and coffee with Metaxa afterward: a perfect lunch for a warm day, in a comfy welcoming place. And reasonably priced, too. Highly recommended. Will add images of the food later if possible.

We chose this restaurant based on the generally good reviews but we were disappointed. I have eaten at countless Greek restaurants across Germany over many years and this one was among the worst. To begin with, the saganaki starter- not baked at a high enough heat, pale and bland looking. Then came the side salads - no taste, the tiniest olive ever (only one per plate) and an equally small lump per plate of somewhat tasteless feta cheese. Normally in Germany the side salads at Greek restaurants are fairly tasty and at least made to suit the German palate but not this one. Onto the main courses, we chose gyros. I cannot say it was terrible but it was lacking in taste and although not the greasiest gyros, it was far from being tender either. Oddly for Greek restaurants in Germany, this one offers baked potato with almost everything. They agreed to serve chips/fries and rice instead but it was not mentioned on the menu that these were even an option. The final irritation came when I ordered some tap water for the children and received a bottle of sparkling water instead, something many children will simply not drink in my experience. We left it at that and paid for it rather than cause a disturbance but all in all I would say this restaurant is best avoided.Dear guest,we thank you for ratting and let us your expirience know. Based on that we can work on our Services.At the same time we sadly we read about your unsatisfied Gourmet Experience with our greek specialities which are typically always, more or less, with much more oil cooked then usually in Germany is normal. Do we right understand that you aren't feed up because aren't enough salads, feta & Co served to you and your children? That's mad but not the normally experience with our measure. The most our guests let us pack the half or more of the ordered food to take that to their home because we serve always big enough portions. The "Water" thing is a mistake we think, because in Germany, you got surely the same experience, the standard water you became if you order a water is a sparkling table water. We think the Waiter hasn't ask you, we work on that. Dear guest, as you see we are very sensible for your requirements for a excellence Experience with our Restaurant AND the Greek culture which we clearly are represent and we hope you by your next visit to satisfied as expect (and a little bit more). Let us please try!Nice time till then we wish you and your family.
