Reviews for Symposium in New York, NY
I walked today to West 113th Street by mistake and surprisingly found an excellent restaurant with the best soup, delicious lamb... -- wow! -- made me think of my mama's cooking. Very kind staff. Will surely return Read more
The inside of this restaurant felt capacious and cavernous. I must admit that I found it a little bit dark and isolating. But... that's less a fault of the restaurant than a consequence of my being there by myself at around 3:00 in the afternoon. As for thefood, it was fine. I had the lamb. It was neither the best nor the worst lamb I've had in my life. Portions were reasonablysized, and the price was reasonable. I have few explicit complaints, except that I want more than the simply adequate when Ichoose to go out to eat. So I'm giving three stars, though I admit that had I come here with a large party at around 7:00 or8:00 at night, the atmosphere would have felt much more soothing and bustlingly alive. Read more
I had an appointment in the area and had not eaten lunch so I popped in on the recommendation of a friend. It was late... afternoon, but they welcomed me in. I ordered the chicken kebab and a Greek salad. Both were fresh and delicious. It was also alot of food, but I ate every bite. The rice was perfect. I didn't have room for dessert, but I will be back.

We had lunch. The dishes are pretty big, sharing a small symposyum as an appetizer and asking a souvlaki lamb then, I was... completely full, even though I was pretty hungry. Anastasio, the server, makes you feel like you?re in a truly greek restaurant,given his knowledge of each dish and his greek soul. My brother and his girlfriend ordered a chicken gyro platter each, whichwas also really big and yummy. We were three and spent a total of $67. I?ll definitely come back. Read more
So it was my first time eating at a Greek restaurant and it was with a big group of around 16. The owner was super nice to us,... so we got to try the pita bread and a light dish for free. Everything was really good :) love their chicken gyro! Read more
Cheap fast-food quality for nice restaurant prices. The meal actually made me laugh because it was so underwhelming and... overpriced. The vegetarian plate pictured below was $14.95?.for unseasoned steamed vegetables and a quarter of a potato. TheKapama was $30.00 wasted. Read more
I've been eating at Symposium for 29 years - at least once a year and, on many years, multiple times. My favorite Greek... restaurant anywhere. You must must get the mixed-salad appetizer. Along with the warm pita that comes with it - I can eat thisdish any day, every day! Read more
