My next restaurant review is for Mykonos Grill location on
Church Street in Burlington. In my
previous post a shared trip advisors reviews for the restaurant. Almost every time I’ve eaten at Mykonos, the
restaurant has been at at least 80% capacity. The general public seems to have
a lot of great comments to make about this spot. Overall, it was rated the second best
restaurant in Burlington out of 181 restaurants. I would agree that this would be one
of the top 8 restaurants in Burlington but I would be pressed to give it the
number 2 spot.
The first
aspect I would like to talk about is the atmosphere and the service. The
service at Mykonos is nothing short of spectacular. Even with a full restaurant, the staff will do
a great job waiting in a timely manner while getting everything right. The atmosphere is somewhat boring
overall. Although the atmosphere isn’t
great, it’s really all you are looking for out of this type of restaurant.
Overall the
food is very reasonably priced. Most of
the combo meals will cost between $8 and $10.
These meals also come with two very sizable sides. For example, a customer can get a Gyro plate
with a side salad and fries for only $8.
The overall quality of the food is above average but not exceptional. I
believe the Gyro meat is not as good as it could be. Being a Greek restaurant, I feel like great
Gyros is a must. In my opinion, the chicken skewers are the best item on the
menu. The fried zucchini is also a very good
appetizer.
I would give
Mykonos an overall rating of 4 stars. As I mentioned previous there is a reason
the restaurant gets the great reviews it does. Based on my criteria, I just can’t
give Mykonos 5 stars. The average atmosphere mixed with food that is not “exceptional”
is the reason I cannot give this place 5 stars.
