This ancient practice not only reflects the heart of Hellenic culture but also inspires us to provide every guest with an unforgettable experience, one rooted in respect, hospitality, and the spirit of divine welcome. At Ithaki, every meal is an invitation, and every guest is treated as though they are the most honored in the room.

Sat outside on a gorgeous chicago day. Saul was amazing. The food was fantastic. We had the breads and spreads to start. Then we had the octopus and tuna to start. Gabby came through and checked on us and was an absolute delight. We finished with the corn, gyros, and deconstructed Pastitsio!!!
