I have been to Roditys many times, and most recently on July 5th, 2009. Once again I wasn't disappointed. I have been to Greece many times, and I am hard press to find a dish at Roditys that didn't equal or surpass anything in Greece. I would recommend the broiled lamb chops. They are the best on the planet, as... more

The food at Roditys is certainly good, and the prices are reasonable. If you're looking for a good meal in Chicago and you don't want to pay lot, this restaurant should be on your short-list. The one thing that keeps me from recommending it without reservations is the weird service from the macho Greeks that run the place. A message... more

Absolutely one of the best (and oldest) traditions in Greektown. The food and service is top notch. A bottle of Roditys red table wine is only $20.00. Delicious lamb. Highly recommended and reasonably priced. more

I looked at the menus of various Chicago Greek restaurants before arriving and chose Roditys because of its Friday specials. Once there, I couldn't decide between the sweetbreads and the braised lamb in lemon/egg sauce with artichokes. Being indecisive, I ordered both. I finished the lamb, but could only finish about half of the sweetbreads. My wife had the Greek... more

I've been traveling to Greektown in Chicago from NE Wisconsin for over 20 years, and by far my favorite Greek restaurant is Rodity's. The service is unmatched, the valet parking is easy and the food is superb. Be sure to try the Saganaki (flaming cheese) so you hear the infamous "OOmpa!" The braised lamb and gyros are outstanding and the... more

I dined at Roditys with my mother and sister last fall and had expected another ho-hum family dining experience--but was I wrong! Everything we ordered (moussaka, spanakopita, lamb, and several kinds of soup) was fabulous--and fresh. I'm no great fan of lamb, but the way Roditys prepares it gives new meaning to the phrase "melts in your mouth." Service is... more
