Terrific Greek food in Virginia Beach

Average Rating

Coming from a Greek background, I make it a point to try a Greek restaurant each time I travel. Trying Ammos in Virginia Beach was a great decision! The food was delicious and very similar to what my Yiayia (grandmother) used to make. The avgolemono soup was piping hot and flavorful. We ordered a mezze sampler for the table. The...

Super family owned Greek food

Creative takes on appetizers, fresh goat cheese and mozzarella, salads that blow you away, a gyro plate that I had to take a pic of it was so amazing. We have a ton of Greek residents in Tidewater, so we are spoiled by their great food. These folks stand out. Try a lunch on the patio.

My husband and I had a lovely dinner on their porch this past weekend. We both had the lentil soup and a Greek salad with the most amazing feta cheese. My husband had the moussaka with roasted potatoes and green beans. I had mahi-mahi with sautéed spinach, sun-dried tomatoes and garlic sauce with rice pilaf and baby carrots in a...

When I go to a Greek restaurant I really just want to eat taramasalata, fortunately my sister is like minded and we decided to order the taramasalata appetizer and the meet lovers entree. All of it was delicious. My brother in law's family is Greek and they really enjoy the restaurant as well. It's a bit unassuming in a strip...

My husband and I dined here with two other couples last weekend and we all had an enjoyable experience. I especially enjoyed the fish special which was a grilled whole red snapper with roasted potatoes and Greek green beans. My husband and several others really liked the moussaka. For an appetizer we tried the cheese baked in phyllo. Everyone was...

I've eaten there three times, once for lunch and twice for dinner (in only two trips to Va Beach!) Plenty of yummy appetizers: the Dolmades, Hummus and Feta Dips with Pita Wedges, Spanikopita, Greek Meatballs, Fried Zucchini, the Calamari..... and the Octopus... I could pretty much eat all day any day. Side story - one of those three dining experiences...

My spouse and I just returned from our first visit to Ammos. What an all around pleasure! Since the restaurant is only a few months old, it has a bright, new feel, Greek in spirit, but not overly kitschy. We enjoyed both of our appetizers (a fun touch with the flambéed cheese), our fish dishes and the baklava and creme...

Hubby and I wanted fresh, homemade Greek food during the Greek Festival weekend. The festival ships in pre-made food for serving to the visitors. Ammos prepares everything fresh and authentic and serves it in their new location on North Great Neck Rd. It's a little further from the Oceanfront than their original location so tourists, do yourself a favor and...

I don't write a lot of reviews, but I have to tell you about this one. I am a Greek food snob. It takes a lot to impress me with Greek food. This place did it. The food was amazing. The portions were huge. And the wine was excellent. All this for about 30% less than I would pay for...

First time was last week, but it won't be our last. We come to VA Beach only a few times a year, so our restaurant experiences have to be perfect and this one was. Food was outstanding.

We had our food delivered through a local delivery service which was quite pricey, but the food itself was reasonably priced and everything was delicious. The hummus and pita bread were top notch and I usually make my own fresh. We were very impressed with the freshness and quality of every dish we ordered.

Really good food - best I've tasted since moving from Greek Town - Chicago. Only complaint - lemon potato side order (ordered 2 - fed one person) - $4.95 for 5 wedges - REALLY?? I've worked in food and beverage for 25 years and 1 1/2 boiled potato w/ lemon and oil is TINY food/operating cost - tasted great, worth $2.95 not $5!!!

Stopped by on a Saturday night after the movies. Full house with a mix of couples, families and groups of friends but the gracious hostess quickly found us a table.
Very friendly staff, we felt right at home despite this being our first visit. The food was very good, generous portions for a reasonable price. We both took home leftovers....

Had the Greek sampler dinner and the flambe cheese. Food was scrumptious. Delectable. I lived in Greece for over a year and this was on par with the best traditional geek food I've had. Great service. Amazing really. Used a Groupon. Terrific wine. Perfect dinner.

Great Greek food at reasonable prices with very pleasant atmosphere. Having been to Greece many times I have little tolerance for those who try to cater to local tastes that have little resemblance to the authentic. Ammos is anything but and we thoroughly enjoyed the best Greek food in a long time. The service was attentive, but not overbearing.

Had the occasion to visit Ammos a second time. A very comfortable, friendly place and reasonably priced. Appetizers are as delicious as the entrees. The owners are personable, "down to earth" yet professional. The barmaid provided excellent service too. If you want to taste authentic Greek food, then Ammos is the real deal.
