mediterranean food and service here is super good. It was so savory. I've had nothing but great experiences here and will keep coming back. Prices are appropriate. If it wasn't far from my work I would come by more.

Papapavlo's is a wonderful hidden Mediterranean gem. It is upscale, but a warm environment. The food is on the slightly pricy side, but well worth it. I had the salad with the beef and lamb gyros. The care and flavor in even their vegetables is notable; but the flavor of the gyros was buttery, savory, and tasted the way you'd hope your grandmother's cooking tasted. I highly suggest you give it a try, and I will be returning.

Came here for a special event and loved it! The food was very good and service was attentive. (Would have been 5 ) Came again with friends who did not like the exotic flavors of their regular menu. (3 )

Went there with my family this past New Year's Eve. We hit an early dinner to avoid the New Year's Eve rush. It took literally two (2) hours to make it through dinner by the time we ordered to the time we were served. The most disappointing part was what you got VS what was advertised. I ordered the "Surf n Turf" which was billed as a jumbo prawn and steak combo (this also happened to be the most expensive item on menu). When this main course finally came, the three (3) prawns were hardly "jumbo" and the steak portion was that of an appetizer. I can understand it being New Year's Eve and being busy. I can understand the server having no control over when the food comes out. However, skimping on portions to turn a profit is just not cool.

If I could give ten stars I would. The food was DELICIOUS. The server was attentive. I wouldn't say it was pricey. It was actually decently priced. The ambience was relaxing. If I lived closer I would definitely revisit and revisit.

Wow the food there is unbelievably good. Decent prices for a high-end restaurant. to say their gourmet would be an understatement. Love it that the staff know the menu because they've tried it. The owner even came and checked in with us. one of my top three favorite restaurants along with their other location to Familia Bistro

This place is a local gem! The food and the customer service is excellent! I ordered the lamb chops, chicken brochette and lamb brochette. All 3 were excellent. We also enjoyed the baklava cheesecake. You have to try this place!

Such a wonderful place to enjoy a quiet meal with a romantic date , someone you love or with a best friend. The atmosphere is clean just the perfect amount of light and not too noisy. I've never seen screaming crying kids there either! That is a huge Plus for me. The food is very good and the cook is very skilled and open-minded, creative and patient with the most picky food snobs. The wait staff is also wonderful. They always seem so welcoming and appreciative of your business and do everything to make your meal very special. It's worth every penny to go there. It's what dining out is supposed to be like.

The food and service were good. The "chef's choice pasta" was a bit salty, but everyone in my party enjoyed his/her food. The pasta (as in all the pasta being served) is also usually served with a side of green beans and carrot skins.

I was immediately shocked when I saw the portion for the crab cakes appetizer. They were literally three little silver dollar sized, thin patties of crab cakes with a very small side of lettuce with italian dressing. I forgot how much they were exactly, but the price was too expensive for the portion size. The dessert's were a hit and miss, but I personally liked the cheesecake they had.

The waitresses who attended us were very nice and attentive. The restaurant gives a nice ambience and is a clean little restaurant to check out. I might give it another shot.

My boyfriend and I have been going here for several years. The food is great and the service is wonserful. I love the flaming cheese. It's a little on the pricey side, so we usually save it for a special occasion.

I m from Detriot MI home of Greektown and was looking forward to a delicious treat. The waitress and salad was nice for starters but not my order lamb kabob brochette and my friends vegetable brochette. Dry tough, no flavor. And they did not have garlic sauce. And finally when I saw my bank statement the next day the waitress gave herself an additional $4 tip. The meal for two was definitely not worth $70!!

Delicious! The cauliflower wings are awesome, perfectly battered and fried. Their pesto is fantastic. I find myself craving it at random times throughout my day. The variety of selections is fantastic, and the portion sizes are very good. For anyone considering to go on a plant based diet, but is unsure of what they would be able to eat, you should definitely give this place a try. You won't be disappointed.

Great atmosphere, food is pretty good but not the most impressive I ordered the pasta with marinara and Italian sausage turns out the Italian sausage is made into the sauce making it not an marinara sauce. But the food still tastes good.

I was open minded about trying this place at the Standiford location. It might just be me but I've been to other Mediterranean restaurants (Demetra Cafe) and Papas just doesn't stack up with the big dawgs. I still suggest giving it a try for yourself.

Tasted the chicken fettuccine alfredo with a side of green beans and a cup of clam chowder. The fettuccine was topped with a beautifully cooked chicken breast and a creamy and delicious alfredo sauce. Although some of the green beans were rubbery, I'll give them a pass because the pasta was just that good. The clam chowder was also very tasty and the clams were perfectly cooked. The waiter was also very kind and fast with refills and bring out our food, never had to ask for anything. Bring your family here for a nice meal or bring your date for a romantic evening. Papapavlo's is a great place to experience a variety of delicious cuisine.
