This is authentic Greek food at it's finest. We made an early reservation and had a wonderful time in this intimate upscale atmosphere. Not only is the food amazing (the most tender octopus in the best olive oil I have ever had) but this restaurant is family owned! We found out that it's one brother up front, and one brother and his son in the back cooking from their mother's recipes. Everything about the experience was above and beyond and if your visiting Portland or a local it would be a mistake to miss out on Emilitsa!

Fantastic food and experience. I've recently started eating vegetarian, and was a bit worried that I wouldn't be able to find something to eat here, even though I've absolutely loved everything here in the past (their lamb is ridiculous if you're a carnivore. Start with the sliders and then go for the main dish with lamb as well...amazing.) Let's just say I left the place happily full. Plenty of good food (vegetarian and otherwise) to go around, and the Greek wines pair deliciously with the dishes.

Best Greek food I've ever had. I had the sliders as an appetizer and lamb chops as my entree and both were delicious. Beyond the food, the service was stellar as well. We booked a reservation for 4 originally and called ahead the day of to notify them a 5th was joining us and the owner who answered the phone very nicely accommodated us. He greeted us when we arrived and we were very well taken care of the rest of the night by our server, Marissa. She gave us great recommendations throughout the night and was very accommodating and helpful addressing the various questions and special requests we had. This place is no doubt 5 stars and I'd very happily come back for another meal when I return to Portland!

Really enjoyed this place in downtown Portland. I ordered the grilled octopus and sampled mousaka, lamb, swordfish, and chicken dishes from friends. All were very flavorful and nicely portioned. What made this a 5-star was the service. Marissa was our waitress and she was wonderful! She provided great recommendations, and had such a great energy to her. Thanks for a lovely evening.
