In Short
Low-key and cheery, this white-walled diner is a favorite among locals craving classic Greek fare. Recommended starters include flaky spanakopita and lemony egg soup; the Villagers salad with feta, cukes and olives is a meal in itself. Super-crisp fries drenched in a nearly drinkable lemon-herb dressing are the must-have accompaniment to everything on the menu. Meat dishes include pork souvlaki served with refreshing tzatziki, and a crispy-skinned Greek chicken that rivals anything dished up in Greektown.

Cross-Rhodes Restaurant is a great little Greek Restaurant in the heart of Evanston. My best friend took me there last time I was in because it was one of the last places left that allowed smoking! I had my favorite Greek foods in the world which were off the appetizer menu. Spanakopita, Feta Cheese with Pita Bread and then a bowl of Egg Lemon soup. Mmmm. Really extensive and good menu and great prices.

This place is the best! The price is right and the food is definately right! The chicken is juicy and flavorful and so are the burgers. The fries are the best in the world with a greek lemon mixture on top. The gyros is not greasy and is yummy! The feta is excellent as well. Sometimes I get the white rice and mix in the feta. EXCELLENT!! This is a definate don't miss place. Bring the family or go as a couple. The serve ice cold beer and wine. The dessert is excellent as well. I can go on for days on how wonderful the food is. The ambience isn't much but who cares with food like that!
