IKOS Greek Mediterranean

This was one of the newer restaurants in Downtown Jersey City that had been on my radar, and I was finally able to check it out. The space is beautiful, with a stylish design and a great ambiance. I was seated right away for my reservation while I waited for my friend to arrive. Our server was attentive from the start, happily answered all of our questions, and offered thoughtful recommendations. We decided to order the margarita pitcher based on her suggestion. We started off with the octopus which was cooked perfectly and the perfect hint of pomegranate vinaigrette. For our entree, we ordered the lamb chops with two sides. Everything arrived promptly, and the lamb was cooked well and packed with flavor. Since it was a Friday night, there was a live DJ who played a great mix of music that really enhanced the atmosphere without overpowering the dining experience. Overall, it was a great experience and definitely a spot I'll be returning to.

Excellent food. Constantinos and his team really do a good job. The grilled calamari was different and really nice. Oysters were nice and fresh. The lamb chops were excellent. Would recommend this place. Great value here

I honestly love going to IKOS Greek Mediterranean. The food is always so good, fresh, and full of flavor. I’ve been there for brunch, lunch, and dinner and every single time everything was amazing. The staff is super sweet and welcoming, and the whole place has such a cozy vibe. As a mom with a baby, I really appreciate how comfortable and family-friendly it feels every time I go there. Def one of the best spots in Jersey City if you want good food, great service, and a beautiful atmosphere. Highly recommend 🤍

Edit: Knocking a star off my initial review (reducing from 5 stars to 4 stars) due to a frustrating experience. Overall, over two experiences, the food is good (besides one unfortunate experience where two of the same dish came out with a problem) and the staff warm and friendly. Below I will give detail of both experiences. -- Recent experience (dinner) We ordered the lobster papardelle and it arrived quite salty. It tasted like a different dish to what we enjoyed last time at lunch. One server asked how things are going. I replied honestly, the dish was salty. From there it became a frustrating experience of being told by 4 different servers over about 20 minutes that they will either take it off the check or make us a new one. But after quite some time, still no action had been taken, we just continued circling the same set of options. They were all apologetic, warm, and polite. But we needed to get going, and I had clearly expressed this after just a few minutes. We could not continue to waste time waiting on them to correct the issue and needed to go. I finally stood up and started walking out the door and finally we could pay. So subtracting a star for the salty dish (unfor

Make reservations guys because this place is packed and I can see why. The atmosphere is absolutely fantastic — great music from the DJ, lively vibes, and a warm, welcoming setting that makes you want to stay all night. The food was delicious from start to finish. The steak was perfectly cooked and full of flavor, the fries with truffle oil were crispy and seasoned just right, and the drinks were well made and refreshing. The lobster pappardelle was rich and satisfying, and the octopus was tender and comparable to the ones I’ve had in Greece, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Everything was packed with flavor and beautifully prepared. I’ll definitely be returning and highly recommend it to anyone looking for great Greek food, amazing vibes, and a fun night out!
