Theo’s Metro

Theo's is a really cool and historic place to visit. When you go inside you'll see all these things they kept and preserved from the previous popcorn factory that was there for almost 100 years. I was interested in what it all was so I googled it while I was waiting for my meal, and it's an interesting read, especially when you're sitting there and can see the story unfold in front of you. For example the tables were made from the dolleys they found in the factory. Pretty cool stuff! It's pristine the way they took this old stuff and gave it new life and kept the history intact. Very cool! The food is good too! Fresh ingredients and amazing taste. I started out with a Caesar salad with sliced lamb add on. They were generous with the lamb and it elevated a typical salad. I liked it. Nice change from a Chicken Caesar and you can scratch your gyro itch at the same time. I also ordered the Mediterranean Shrimp Strudel. This is decadent and delicious! The sauce is so good! I loved every single bite of this and it leaves you wanting more. I had been craving fried zucchini, so I also ordered the vegetable moussaka. Light breading and good sauce also. Their sauces are really lovely wi

Theo's is amazing. I went there today for the first time, and I was enchanted. The building seems to be an old factory of some kind, beautifully repurposed with genuine charm. The tables were beautifully painted with Greek scenes, Greek music was playing on the speakers, there was a fountain. It was incredible! Then came the food. The grape leaves were delicious. The best I've ever had, and I've had quite a few. I got one of the specials, which was a grilled chicken and rice bowl, and it was very good. I'm very excited to try more. The service was excellent. Just the right amount of attention, and she knew her stuff. Who knew we had such a gem in Kingston? I wish I'd gone sooner. Fantastic!

Food here is excellent. I got the steak risotto, hubby got the salmon. They were extraordinary. The lemon chicken orzo soup is absolutely a must. We got the spicy feta and pita bread as an app. It was perfectly spicy and the poetiin was huge. They bring the food out in a relaxed pace so you have time to settle between courses. Our waitress, Kate, was wonderful. Highly recommend.

We love greek food so whenever we come to a new town we look to see if there is a Greek restaurant and try it. This one has the added advantage of a unique and interesting setting being in an old popcorn factory! One of the negatives of the setting is that parking is a major challenge. The menu is chock-full of Greek dishes and others. We tried a variety including the flaming Saganaki. One of our party went non Greek. Service was superb by all staff members. They dropped freshly baked rolls on us with an oil herb mixture that was amazing. The flaming cheese was properly presented. Of the Greek foods we liked the dolmades and spanakopitas. The gyros were obviously home made and well seasoned but looked odd - like steak umms. The Moussaka was also oddly flavored as well. Portions are large so you will have leftovers!

Had a group of 10 on a Thursday night. We were told to make reservations next time even when it was mostly empty upon arrival. I ordered the shrimp crab Alfredo. Received the lobster Alfredo after a 90 minute wait for our food. Waitress told me what I ordered is not on the menu. I pointed to the shrimp crab alfredo when I ordered. So, I showed her the menu again. Was met with indifference. Also, I've ordered shrimp crab alfredo for years. Had long lulls of no service. Many of us wanted dessert and coffee but it was not offered. Whole evening took 3 hours not by our choice. Gratuity of 20% was added to our tab as well. Irritating considering I didn't even receive what I ordered. This isn't the first bad experience I've had. Ordered takeout a week ago. Came when they said it'd be ready and waited an extra 25 minutes for my food. Frustrated, aggravated and not impressed all around.
