The long wait and huge portions basically define Stepho's. The souvali is realy filling (highly recommend the small one with one skewer (large has two). Both the lamb and chicken versions were good (athough I preferred the lamb more). Very reasonable prices. Definite bang for your buck if you don't mind the wait.

Just thinking about it makes me want to go back. Awesome price for what you get. Expect to leave walking like a penguin and a big smile. The place looks dated but the food is awesome. Seriously....LAMB anything.

I wasn't going to write a review because it's been about 3-4 months since we went to Stepho's but I kept thinking about how disappointed I was with the food. I guess the people who line up night after night don't think about how harmful this can be or perhaps they just go once in a while. Regardless... My main... More

We had lunch in this restaurant. Since we had never had Greek food before, we asked for recommendation by waitress, and she recommended the roasted lamb, which was excellent. Our other dishes were very good as well, and the price was very reasonable.

Their foods are so fresh and so home made taste. I love their Karamari dinner. Long waiting line, but it's worth it!

I absolutely love this place. Unfortunately I moved from Vancouver, and I have tried to find another Greek restaurant like this in Seattle, and in the Bay Area, and nothing comes close. Super amazing food for a great price. I think the only way I will ever experience something as amazing as Stephos is if I go to Greece! I... More

I gave this place a five star because it is that good. The lines here can be really long so I suggest you come here earlier before the usual eating time that way you'll be seated right away. The servings are huge, you can half it with someone or take home the leftovers. Ciao!

Pleasant spot - not unusual for lineups on the street. Best roast lamb I have ever had. Excellent value. Good service too.
