" After hearing a lot of good things, I finally made it to Ouzo Cafe. I was quite impressed with the operation! The food came out promptly and was absolutely delicious. The calamari was tender and seasoned well. I had the chance to try the lamb gyro and loved every bite! The atmosphere was cozy, but it felt a bit cramped at times. Regardless, the food quality and service made for a very enjoyable experience. I will recommend it to friends looking for Greek cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I like to consider myself a Greek food connoisseur! After trying many places, I must say Ouzo Cafe has some of the best gyros in Milwaukee. The flavor was spot on, and the ingredients so fresh! All of our meals came out quickly, and the servers were prompt in checking on us. The cozy setting is perfect for a date night. Plus, their dessert options are not to be missed. I will definitely come back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled upon Ouzo Cafe quite randomly and was pleasantly surprised! It’s a hidden gem downtown. The food is authentic and fresh, not to mention the generous portions! I had the moussaka, and it was creamy with just the right amount of seasoning. The service was fast and friendly, which added to the overall positive experience. I could see this being a regular spot for dinner with friends. I especially loved the cozy atmosphere and how it wasn't bustling; it felt intimate. " (*Curated Review*)

" The overall experience at Ouzo Cafe was nice, but I found it to be lacking in authenticity. While the service was impeccable and the staff were warm and inviting, the food didn’t quite measure up to the authentic flavors I was hoping for. The gyros, though decent, could have used more seasoning and flavor. I wasn't overly impressed with portion sizes either—they felt somewhat smaller compared to similar spots. That said, I'd give it another shot; maybe I just ordered the wrong items. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve visited Ouzo Cafe multiple times, and it's consistently very good! The chicken is always juicy, and the fries are seasoned just right. However, I did notice that the prices have climbed a bit since my first visit, which was disappointing. The staff have always been friendly, and I've never had a serious issue with service. The atmosphere can get a little noisy during busy hours, but that's expected at popular places. Overall, a solid choice for Greek food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ouzo Cafe holds a special place in my heart, and every visit feels like home. The spanakopita is phenomenal; just the right balance of spinach and feta wrapped in flaky pastry. The service is consistently great—everyone is so friendly and remembers past customers. On this visit, I decided to try the chef's special seafood dish, and it was heavenly. I left feeling satisfied and happy. It's a must-visit if you're near downtown! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been coming to Ouzo Cafe for years, and I always get the same thing—lamb gyro and Greek fries. They hit the spot every time! The lamb is tender and juicy, the pita is made fresh, and the fries are seasoned to perfection. The staff remembers my order, which makes me feel special. Although the place can get busy, the service is prompt and friendly. If you’re a fan of Greek flavors, you’ll find a little piece of heaven here! " (*Curated Review*)
