    I went with my friend for a late dinner in Chicago Restaurant Week, reservation at 9:15. We got there on time and still had to wait 30 min for our table. They placed us in this little table right besides the bar. The place gets crowded, specially the bar, so we were constantly surrounded by so much people, the servers had a hard time reaching us in multiple occasions, women passing by basically rubbing their hair on our food, people literally touching us, cause again, the place it’s PACKED and our table was in a horrible location. The server service was poor, but I guess it was hectic Saturday night, but still they should’ve prepared more for that, this is not a new event and Lyra it’s a very famous spot.

    Hands down one of the best meals I have ever had! Everything was so fresh and came with great presentation. The atmosphere was also great with a swanky Mediterranean vibe.

    The food was great and our server was extremely attentive and hospitable. Unfortunately the buser dropped plates onto my sister and stained her coat and shirt/scarf with oil. Unfortunately this must not have been communicated to the server because nothing was done.

    We love Greek food and everything was so good! The Lamb gyros, charred octopus, spanakopita, and halloumi were items not to be missed. We will definitely be back!

    Maybe it was an off night but the food was so so at best. The octopus was the worst I have ever had.

    Food was pretty good. I didn’t finish my lamb gyros so asked the server to pack it to go. She didn’t pack the sauce that I didn’t finish so when I noticed that I asked the bus boy to bring me some sauce to go. He did but when I got my bill I noticed a $5 charge for “extra sauce.” This ruined the whole experience for me and I think it’s outrageous to charge five bucks for extra half ounce of sauce.
