been there twice now in the last couple months, I can vouch for the stuffed grape leaves, and the Greek salad service was good and they didn't mind us hanging out. Definitely go again.

10/10 in food and service! Kathy is a badass bartender with exceptional attention to detail, personality and efficiency. My bf and I love sitting at the bar in the back with the open garage doors, especially on a sunny day. The Greek salad is to die for, so is the calamari! I never gotten anything I didn't love. The portions are generous and the flavors are as close to authentic Greek as you can get! Great for date nights and groups!

Me and my family love this restaurant, most of the time we get a carryout, but me and my son decided to dine in today. We sat outside, but it was kind of busy so we went inside after few moments and the owner gave us a free Saga Naki for waiting!! I've been coming to this location since they opened up years ago and what a first class place. The kind of place where you would want to impress a first date or take your family to. Definitely our favorite restaurant in the area.

Excellent service Yuvetsake with lamb or beef is excellent. We came here not know it Greek all I can say is WOW... Oddly enough the salad was excellent and it's only a freaking salad.

Pegasus is the closest and most authentic Greek cuisine in SCS. Whether dining in or carrying out, I have never had a bad meal at Pegasus. The staff is always pleasant and helpful, the food is hot, and the portions are plentiful. If dining in, Pegasus has a lot of seating, usually not too busy, and has a quaint ambiance to the inside.

We had a nice lunch here. With great service and delicious food. We all got the Greek salad, which was wonderful and we got the saganaki, which is always delicious with wonderful bread. My dad also ordered a combo plate that had a little bit of everything and that was really good.

Absolutely LOVED my experience at Pegasus Taverna. In all honesty I haven't had much exposure to Greek food so I wasn't sure what to expect prior to dining here. But let me tell you, I was pleasantly surprised by everything from the service to the food. M My party was a decent size since my sister, her husband and my husband were in town visiting my brother in laws family. They've gone to this place for some time so it came with high expectations. We were all seated right away and opted for the outdoor patio since that's what was recommended. I'm sure it's quite nice when the weather is decent outside but on the night we visited it was pretty warm outside. But that didn't stop the great experience. Our waiter was very attentive and friendly. He answered any questions we had on the menu since we were unfamiliar. Honestly it felt like he knew us even though he didn't. I love that their customer service vibe is so relaxed. My brother in law ordered the Appetizer combo for the table to have. Honestly I'm sure exactly what it included but the spread they had in it was absolutely delicious! Did I mention they bring fresh bread for the table too? The spread worked perfectly on the soft bread. For my main meal I went with the chicken gyro. It was amazing! Everything was so fresh and I added a bit of the spread from our appetizer dish to the pita. Perfect pairing! This place deserves more than 5 stars in my opinion. They have great customer service and their food is delicious! I'd definitely come back if I'm in the area again. I wish they had multiple locations so I could it more often. Highly recommend!

Pegasus has been a local and family run Detroit "Greektown Staple" for over 24 years. Both their Greektown locations and St. Clair Shores location boast of their broad and authentic Greek menu. I am a St. Clair Shores local resident and typically dine at the St. Clair Shores Pegasus location. Their heated structured outdoor patio is perfect all year round with a plethora of natural light. Their outdoor heated patio tables recently got a facelift and they look classy! Much of their staff have remained loyal employees and you'll see a lot of the same faces. Their menu is diverse with all of the classic dishes you'd find locally in Greece and embodies the authenticity of Greek Cuisine. I'm a creature of habit and usually start with the Saganaki appetizer and pita bread. If you're anything like me, you'll have a hard time picking just one item so an entree! They have a combination platter with your choice of lamb, beef or chicken with Spanakoteropeta, Moussaka and Dolmathes served with rice and vegetables. If you're new to Greek Cuisine, this dish is for you! They have an assortment of authentic lamb dishes, as well. All of their meals are served with the traditional Greek-village style bread. When I traveled to Greece, I was able to take cooking lessons with a local chef in Athens and Pegasus' tomato sauce is above average. This most recent time I've dined here, David was our server and he was knowledgeable and authentic. They have a large parking lot so you won't struggle to find parking. They are able to accommodate large groups, as well. When I don't have time to dine-in at Pegasus, they are one of my take-out go-tos. They are not open on Mondays, but this seems to be a common post-COVID era restaurant theme, so it's not a big deal! If you're looking for an authentic taste of Greece without boarding a plane, Pegasus is a great selection!
