Eleon Meze Bar - Menu

We dropped in here for a quick lunch as we had very little time. They pulled up freshly made food, very tasty and the quantities were huge, so we shared one dish

Amazing restaurant in Essen/Ruettenscheid. Everything tastes very nice, the prices are pretty ok, the staff very polite and quick, the ambiente modern and cosy. All-in-all a very nice restaurant to enjoy Greek cuisine

The food was wonderful and very reasonably priced, especially for the lunch menu, which you could order from until 5pm. They offered classic Greek dishes and well as more general Mediterranean food. The restaurant was really nicely decorated too. View menu

Great location, nice (modern lounge style) decor, great service, and wonderful food. The specialty here are the "meze", which is the Greek version of Spanish tapas. Everything we ate was excellent and already before I left the restaurant I was thinking about the next time to come there again. μπράβο!

love this restaurant, bit expensive but worth to go, with friends, family and couples....dishes are not cheap but they are tasty, many things on the menu are worth. I love the taramo salad, soulaki, fried feta cheese, almost all appetizers.... i do not know where to stop!! do not be afraid for the fact that is not often full, the problem is that not many people are ready to spend 5 euros more than usual to eat better than a schnitzel.

Eleon has such wonderful food, and it is so close to what one would find here in Athens. To be clear, I am from Texas, USA, and my wife is Greek. I make my home in Athens now though. And Eleon was recommended for us if we wanted to have some home-like comfort food. And they were so right! Everything was just like we would have at home.The servers were wonderful and spoke German, Greek, and English! And were very knowledgeable about the menu.Everything was cooked to order, delicious, and tasted just like home! Highly recommend not only for great food, but great GREEK food! View menu

I discovered the restaurant by chance, I had dinner with a friend and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal, we shall be back. We loved the tapas portions, we ordered dishes and we could not finish them all, there was no space for a dessert....We shared all the dishes which gave us four different tastes. We enjoyed fried calamaris, the portion of moussaka was just right, my friend loved the tomato and greek yogurt fritters. The only dish that was a bit too rich consisted of fried mushrooms with cheese, the dish alone would have been a meal for me. The dishes which were taken to other tables all looked delicious. The service was attentive, we were asked several times whether everything was to our sa...

I could have eaten here every night when I was in Essen. Sorry I found you right before I had to leave town as I was there for business.I could have tried it all- but what I tried was incredible including calamari and some vegetables (flowerettes) including a starter dish I forgot the name of but I loved it all.It was all Tapas. Small plates but so so good. If only I could eat 10 plates but 3 was more than enough. All fresh made and the taste was incredible. The beautiful ambiance in the restaurant was welcoming and relaxing. Also to start there is bread, tomato, and olives to start with while I drank wine.The menu is in English and GermanNo question about it - I saved this restaurant on my...

We were looking for somewhere in Essen to have a less formal meal and we came across Eleon Meze Bar and what a find it was.The restaurant is well appointed in a very casual dining environment where you could dine either inside or outside and the decor was quite appropriate.We made selections from a very varied menu and it was quite difficult to decide which to chose from as they were all very tempting. We ended up choosing six dishes and we were not disappointed. The ingredients were fresh and expertly presented, and the combinations of herbs and spices enhanced the flavours and each dish was excellent.We had a bottle of Greek white wine which was quite acceptable and price wise, very reason...
