Eugene, Oregon’s Best Restaurants and Food Carts

"A bonafide Eugene institution, Poppi’s Anatolia may not have the buzz of some of its new-wave local competition but it has the heart and the food to match. Perhaps it’s the fact that this Mediterranean-Indian-ish spot was established in 1977, but the vibe here feels fully contemporary with warm wood tones and plenty of plants cascading around the windows. This is the spot for a Greek salad or a lemony, sizzling pile plate of saganaki and brown bread, though you can also find some surprises on the Indian section of the menu such as the spicy, cumin-laden Bombay aloo (always accompanied by a delightfully varied dish of chutneys). To drink there’s a full list of Greek and Cypriot sippers like metaxa and raki as well as Greek wines and refreshing hibiscus-mint tea." - Brenna Houck, Eater Staff

The service was excellent and the staff were very friendly. Please be aware that street parking is required and may involve a fee. The restaurant is somewhat small, so depending on the day and time of your visit, you may experience a wait for a table. Their menu is quite extensive. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals, including two daily specials and a couple of appetizers to share. We found their mango lassies to be more tart and yogurt-forward than mango-flavored.

I thought the food was not that great. Lamb was overcooked and tough shrimp was overcooked and rubbery. Maybe they just were having a bad night. I’m not sure. Would I go back? Definitely not

Unique dining experience. For Eugene. Poppi's is a very nice escape from all the other mediocre offerings in the surrounding area. There are a lot of very great offerings from this cozy place. Good drinks. Great food. Interesting menu. The location and dining room size keep the experience limited in an intimate kind of way. Out of the few times I've been here I'm not sure I've ever had the full treatment. So, maybe a more than modest review.

Had a date night here and while most of the food was delicious, the service was terrible. Our waitress had to hike up her pants every time she moved from one table to the next and I never saw her wash her hands, she also had to be asked three times for bubbly water that my husband ordered before she brought it, and she delivered the food without a fork to eat it, then looked perplexed when we asked for one when we were able to get her attention ten minutes later. It made the delicious food and beautiful atmosphere not as great. I don't think we'll be returning.

Food and service were good. The issue I had was that all the best tables toward the front of the restaurant and by the windows remained empty for the first hour we were there on a Sunday evening. We had made a reservation requesting a window table. When we arrived we were ushered to a back table by the bathroom. Finally we were allowed to sit in the middle of the restaurant. We were told that the front of the restaurant tables were reserved. I guess some diners get preferential treatment.

Went here for the first time with my friend. We ordered the skordalia appetizer, gyro dish, and porkchop dish. The appetizer was yummy! The gyro dish was as what you would expect. The porkchop dish was well seasoned and a bit chewy. I would come here again and try different menu items!

This place is so delightful we came back the next day! Kat and Surai (apologies if misspelled) were absolute delights and made us feel so welcomed and appreciated. The food was amazing, the service was stellar, and the atmosphere gives old school Eugene vibes. What a hidden gem! One of my dinner mates comes here every year on her birthday, for over 10 years. She highly recommends it to anybody. I’m so grateful she recommended it to me.

What a treat! Truly delicious food and great people. Normally the menu is a combination of Indian and Greek food, occasionally they have a Greek night with expanded selections — the eggplant dip (Melitzanosalata) and calamari were incredible as were our entrees. We will definitely return to this gem.

Food was good. I had a Greek dish. It was delicious. I went to lunch with my friend and we both really enjoyed it. We shared our food. It was very nice. We tried to go again but they were closed. I hope they aren't closed for good.

First of all, we are trying to eat clean these days, and chose Poppi's Anatolia in hopes of a good protein with vegetables. The roast chicken was absolutely delicious!!! So was the Mediterranean salad. We didn't have anything else, but if you are looking for warm and flavorful cooking that makes you feel like you are sitting right in the middle of a Greek mama's kitchen, this is the one!

From seeing Yelp reviews, my daughter chose this restaurant for my bday dinner. All in all a good experience. Our server was sweet. The service however was slow. I absolutely loved the spanakopita and the hummus. The lavender lemon drop was delicious however extremely tiny- consumed in only 3 sips. The potatoes in tomato sauce were quite unremarkable. It was an eclectic yet noisy interior. If in town again I'd stop by for the spanakopita.

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner here. It has such a cozy vibe and transports you away from the downtown area into a more intimate dining space. The food was really nice. Lamb souvlaki was tender, juicy, and well seasoned. We had a selection of mezze. The melanzatosalata was a bit different than others I've had, as their version includes what I assume to be tahini or some other creamy ingredient (as opposed to smoked/roasted eggplant with cucumber). It was more like a baba ganoush in that respect. The potato mezze was my favorite, but the levels of raw garlic are not for the faint of heart! My issue with all our mezze (including the artichoke) was that it was fridge-cold. I don't mind dishes being served "cold/chilled" and prepared in advance, but it was like you took leftovers right out your fridge and bit into it - you know the taste and sensation I mean. Cold on the teeth and all. So I would have preferred that they bring it up to room temp before serving to have a better eating experience. Service was really kind and lovely. We hope to come back to try their Indian side of the menu!

Food is excellent and service prompt. Parking is inconvenient. Ambience is interesting with high wood ceilings. The table we chose had cold draft so be careful picking your spot. Recommend.

Super unprofessional staff , horrible food quality. The servers are teenagers without knowledge of how to give a proper service to the costumers. I hate to say this but I felt racism in their actions. Please avoid Poppi's Anatolia. Not recommended this place.

Greek night last night, food's delicious, hosts very graciously introducing specials and very accommodating about the drinks, willing to make the drink by requesting even though it's not on the seasonal cocktails list. Nice atmosphere not overly loud, you can still have a quiet conversation with your dinner partner. The special greek egg lemon soup's not very traditional though. My prawn dish's delicious, perfectly cooked.

Poppi's Anatolia is a cute little restaurant. It kinda feels like a 2 in 1, since they serve both Greek/Mediterranean food and Indian food (I'm not sure where the connection comes from, but as a lover of both types of food, it definitely piqued my interest). This trip I only tried the Greek food, so I'll definitely have to come back to try out their Indian fare as well. We ordered the Skordalia appetizer, the Gyros Plate, and the Spanakopita. The Skordalia portion was HUGE (we ended up requesting more pita), and the flavor was amazing. The bite of the garlic was prominent and accented by the zing from the lemon. The Gyros Plate was good. The beef was a little tough, but the lamb was cooked perfectly. I was expecting the gyros to either be premade, or with the pita on the side, but the pita was stacked underneath the pile of meat and tzatziki, which was puzzling. The pita was also a little bit over toasted, but softened up with the food. The salad was crisp and a nice complement to the heavier flavors of the gyros. I recently discovered Spanakopita and was eager to try another rendition. I was not disappointed. The spinach and feta was creamy and the filo was crispy. I loved every bite and wished there was more. Unfortunately, the spanakopita shone so brilliantly that the sides felt a bit lackluster in comparison.

-Cute but entrees were not worth it- The ambiance in this restaurant is excellent. Very nicely decorated and in theme as a Mediterranean restaurant. However, if you do not set a reservation, they will sit you in a small hallway between the restrooms and kitchen which is not as great seating. The service was good and they checked in on us frequently. We ordered Bhajias for an appetizer and that was very good and unique. My partner also got a fruit flavored shot he really liked. We were a bit disappointed by our main entrees though. I ordered the lamb dish which was served as bite sized chunks on a skewer. It was very over cooked and very chewy and there was a small bone in one piece. It also was very plain on its own and I needed to dip it in tzatziki to eat it. The olive in my salad also had a pit in it which I did not expect and almost hurt my tooth. The salad was also very plain in general and I didn't like it, and I normally love salad. The rice it was served in was also plain, which was surprising considering this dish was $23. My partner ordered the chicken and it was cooked good but it was served as a whole quarter of a chunk of chicken on the bones still, which wasn't listed on the menu and he didn't enjoy. He had to spend a while to get all the meat off the bones with just a fork and butter knife. It came with potatoes and broccoli which was cooked and seasoned very well. Overall, I do not recommend the lamb dish at all, but the chicken dish was good if you don't mind deboning your own chicken. Overall, it was our least favorite place we have eaten at in Eugene and we will not be going back. I am giving this 2 stars considering the entrees are over $20 and the lamb dish was really bad. Also, I was disappointed I spent over $20 each entree for dishes I felt like I could make at home. The total for 2 entrees, 1 appetizer, and a shot came to $67.

I started going to the gym across the street, so we decided to come here after a swim. I have wanted to come here for a long time, and I really wish that I did sooner! The servers are very sweet and friendly. It feels like they are all sort of help each other out. We didn't have a difficult time getting a table. It smelled great in there. The ambiance is rustic, quaint and cute. The kitchen is open so you can sort of see the action while you are dining. I was surprised by the Indian food on a Greek menu, but it offered us a broader choice in a smaller menu. We have been twice now and we ordered the meze platter twice now to try everything on it. The Hummus, and eggplant are super garlicky! In the best kind of way! Loved the artichokes, and potato walnut spread as well. We also really enjoyed the dolmas. They are fruit and moist. The Dahl was simple and tasty. The chicken was really tasty. It was a bone in thigh and leg with potatoes that has a ton of flavor and some zucchini. The skin was perfectly salty and crisp. We also got the pork chop. It was a tad small, but flavorful! They bring you a desert platter when you are done. So you can see all of the dessert options. I've gotten the Baklava. Although it's a bit clunky, I really enjoyed it. It's made with almonds, and honey syrup. What else do you need?? Lol We have decided that this place eats like a really good home cooked meal. Nothing fancy, just super flavorful and delicious. We plan on getting the fried cheese and potato onion fritters next time! Update- got the fried cheese! Get it! It's very filling, but super tasty!!! Yummm!

It was a no for our dinner date night. I ordered a lamb kabob plate, the lamb was over cooked and chewy, rice was old and so dry unable to eat. My partner had an eggplant dish that wasn't flavorful. We weren't feelin the love. The restaurant wasn't busy so not sure what happened. Heard from locals this was a great spot to check out. Hope you have a better experience.

You know how there are restaurants that are local institutions, that everyone raves about, or ones that have accolades and awards, and you go there and it's just kind of...meh? Well, Poppi's is *NOT* that place--it's still great! It's been around since the 80s, and it still has managed to keep up a wonderful, warm, cozy atmosphere, paired with delicious, freshly made Mediterranean and Indian food. I think the menu has plenty of options, and a good selection of beverages. On my last visit, I got a gyro sandwich: the pita was warm and had the right amount of delicious char from the grill. The meat was fresh. The salad on the side was crisp and had a tasty dressing. I paired it with a glass of wine and had a lovely meal. My baklava for dessert was a little dry, but still flaky and delicious. I didn't know Poppi, but I know some of her family, and know people who knew her, and I've heard multiple stories about what a generous and kind local business the restaurant is and has been. (All the staff I met there on my most recent trip seemed friendly and relaxed so I assume it's a decent place to work.) I always get a good meal when I come here, and I love supporting such a great longtime local business.

Nope. Un-yummy. I know that they are a fixture in Eugene, but for me specifically, the Greek menu is sparse, toned way down, and the Indian fusion offerings are only OK. I have tried on different nights and with different staff and the food is always the same. The wine and beer list is limited. We just don't eat here. It is not on our restaurant rotation in Eugene. The baklava is bad. Look, I know that is a bold statement, but I take my baklava seriously and I have sampled it all over the world: Lebanon, Singapore, Hamburg Germany, Athens, at the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul, street carts in Kapadokia, NYC, Houston, Tel Aviv, Berlin... I have had walnut, pistachio, almond, and mixture of all three. I know Baklava. Their version is not made with rose water, the walnuts are WAY too chunky, not enough honey is used - nowhere near enough, and it is not left to sit for long enough before serving. It is dry, chunky, not sweet enough, and leaves a powdery aftertaste. I will step down from my Baklava high horse now, but as a side note the best I have ever had was from Hafız Mustafa in Istanbul.

The food was good. Cool restaurant. Service was a little mediocre, but they were really busy when we were there so they probably had a lot going on. We would go again.

Anatolia's has been a long-time favorite, but we haven't been here in 2-3 years. We were recently pleasantly surprised that they are just as good as we remembered. We always order either the gyros plate or roasted chicken. This time, we both had the gyros plate and it was scrumcious: moist gyros, delicious pita, and a Greek salad with a lemon dressing to die for. The portions have gotten a little smaller, (they use smaller plates), but the flavor and goodness haven't changed. It's also understandable that the portions have become smaller due to the rising costs of everything. We finished off our meal with a brandy-soaked cake with chocolate. It's very sweet, so sharing it was perfect. Our waitress was so nice and accommodating, too. 'Just a lovely date night out.

Poppi's is a unique place in the Downtown Eugene area as it focuses on Greek and Indian foods. Interesting combination but works well. The inside is decorated nicely with high ceilings and wood beams throughout along with the long hanging plants for ambience. I had a traditional Gyro along with my choice of a soup or salad. I chose the soup which was chicken, lemon and egg and was pretty tasty. My daughter had a tofu vegan dish along with the other soup they offered. We both really enjoyed our food. Great service as well. Try this hidden gem of a place and you'll love it.

I'm giving a 3-Star, because the food was superb. But I probably will not return because of the service. Had a rezzie, was seated promptly and was provided water and a cocktail and ordered our two entrees and a cup of soup. Our server never came back to check on us. We were not given any attention again until 40 minutes later when our entrees arrived (delivered by a different staff member who was very friendly). She did have to move our empty water and cocktail glasses and empty water carafe out of the way that I had placed near the edge of the table to signal more water and/or the offer of another cocktail would be appreciated, since looking around and trying to obtain eye contact was not working. Still no soup (which I had expected much sooner). So she went back and got it and delivered it in under one minute. Since we were still not offered the opportunity to order another cocktail when our server finally did bring us a fresh water carafe after our food arrived (I assumed she was told by the person who delivered our food), dashing too quickly to open the door for requests, I finally was able to flag her down to ask for another cocktail. The food was very good, we tried both a Greek dish and an Indian dish; both were superb. The service from our server was not, we received more attention and friendliness from other staff. We had a lot of food left over and asked our server for a box, she brought one, a very small box...I crammed as much as I could into it, but, at this point, was just too irritated to actually have to ask for a bigger or additional box when she clearly had no interest in truly providing what customers need OR lacked basic awareness skills that servers do well to develop....so, unfortunately, I left some food on the table.

Greek Indian fusion may spark your curiosity, but this place has a Greek side of the menu and an Indian side of the menu. Place wasn't super busy and service was okay. I ordered the gyro which they did as expected, but nothing special. May consider going back.

Restaurant is cute, waited a solid 30 minutes while it was dead for our food which was incredibly bland and disappointing. Spent a lot of money on a small portion of very bland food. The hibiscus lemonade was good though.

Ambience: very sweet. Been here a long time. nice music. Service: great. Friendly. Food: chutneys: Great! korma chicken curry: bland, no veggies, could not taste or see the almonds. Pappadams: just ok. No choice of other indian breads other than naan (boring). Food here like everywhere is overpriced and I could make better at home. I do like that they are open all day instead of shutting down between lunch & dinner. Parking: metered on street.

My friend and I were celebrating his birthday in Eugene and really wanted some Greek food, specifically good pita and hummus! We did a yelp search to find this restaurant, one we haven't been to before. We showed up an hour before closing but we're still met with super friendly service. The menu features a mix of Indian and Mediterranean cuisine, with so many vegan options!! I had a hard time choosing, but ended up getting the spilt pea soup and a greek salad, with a side order of pita. I forgot to remove the feta on my salad to make it vegan so I just picked it off. The side order of pita came with this garlicy & delicious dip, and I loved the soup! My friend got an appetizer sampler dish of 3 different dips and pita and olives. Since it was a birthday dinner, the waiter gave us both free shots of this licorice tasting liquor! Overall we both loved our food and the service, and can't wait to be back.

I always enjoy supporting restaurants that are an "institution"--the family-owned place that makes things according to recipes passed down, that's been around unchanged forever. (That's why New Day is my favorite spot in Eugene, for example.) Poppi's opened before I was born, and the atmosphere is super charming. I also saw a picture on the wall of Poppi herself, who passed away recently; I'm sorry for their loss. This all makes me feel bad saying the truth... but honestly, I was so unimpressed by the quality of the food relative to the price point that I can't imagine returning. First of all, I don't quite understand the Greek-Indian hybrid for a restaurant concept. Greek-Albanian or Greek-Turkish, perhaps. I looked at their website wondering if there's some special story behind it, but found nothing. Can they narrate the history of the restaurant a bit, so we're not so puzzled about the hybrid? Here's what I tried: -Spanakopita plate. The spanakopita needed quite a lot of salt. The filo on the top wasn't crispy, but soggy. Perhaps it needed a thicker layer on top. (Tradewinds spanakopita is much better.) It came with two sides crammed onto a small plate: potatoes in tomato sauce, which tasted like plain boiled potatoes with passata almost directly out of the carton and scarcely cooked, and zucchini and onions with dried herbs, which were adequately salted but quite undercooked and crunchy. Both side dishes reminded me of student co-op style. This should not be a $20 dish. -Sampler of appetizers. Pita was good and they serve a lot of it. The eggplant dip is so aggressively garlicky that it's hard to taste anything else, including the flavor of eggplant. It would have been delicious if that flavor were scaled back; it was very close. Artichoke hearts didn't have much flavor, although they were pleasant to eat; I assume they must make them fresh, but the experience wasn't that different from the kind you can get in a jar, so I didn't quite get it. Could they be grilled or something? Dolmas were decent, a bit understuffed and floppy and mostly flavored with tons of dried mint and no other flavors come through. (I'm picky about dolmas bc it's my absolute favorite food and I make very good ones myself on special occasions.) -My friend got a pork chop, which was served without a sauce on top of plain rice with a salad. I can't review meat dishes since I'm a veg-head, but he was disappointed that the dish just seemed plain, dry, three disconnected elements without much concept of how they interact, and with no sauce for the rice/meat. Service is fast and friendly, and again, I feel bad saying all this but it's ca. $30/person here and I want to be served food that's better than I can make at home. If they're charging upscale, they need to strive to be upscale. This place reminds me of Beppe and Gianni's. It's a Eugene institution, family owned, cute as can be, and it's been around forever so no one wants to criticize it. But being the only Greek place in town doesn't stir up enough competition that they're really attentive to the quality of the food relative to the price. If the price point is lower, my expectations change dramatically.

High quality Greek food with a friendly staff who are dedicated to the memory of the restaurant's founder. The Thali Plate that I ordered was s combination of four vegetarian dishes with sauces and chutneys. Lots of wonderful flavors that blend well. It came with rice and pitas so you can sample them in various combinations. The "chai" was just chai tea bags but they provided plenty of good honey and cream so I was able to doctor it into something pretty close to real chai. Will come again.

I am usually quite critical and detailed in my reviews, but Poppi's leaves no question. The food, service, and aesthetic atmosphere are nothing short of dazziling. The team is clearly a well oiled machine that is clicking after a road of relationship and culinary work. The live acoustic young musician was one of the better performances I have seen, with a hauntingly beautiful voice. Ellie is an elegant maestro.

Hubby and I returned after over 18 months. Disappointed that the meal was as enjoyable this time around. We ordered Hummus, Olives, Calamari and Grilled Lamb. The best thing we had was the Hummus w/pita and the Olives. The Calamari was tender but no flavor and kinda oily. The Lamb wasn't tender and not what we remembered the last time we were there. Overall we spent $51 plus tip and walked away with a new resolve to learn to make more Greek food at home.

Do you ever walk into a new restaurant and just know from the smell in the air, the feel of the place, that it is going to be good? Poppi's Anatolia did not disappoint! Amazing food, quaint ambiance, and our server "Scarlet" was off the charts personable and cute. We had greek coffees, shots of ozzo, and two sumptuous curry entries. Our bill was $43. Wow.

Does this restaurant in an identity crisis? Maybe, but who among us isn't? I went on Thursday evening with two other people, and we had a lovely time! The staff was incredibly helpful and patient (our pronunciations were no good), and the food was delicious and generously portioned. We had the kota psiti (roasted chicken), poppadoms (lentil crisps with spicy pickled onion), and a large platter that had a variety of Indian dishes with chutney and rice. We enjoyed the atmosphere and food, and would come back again.

I ordered the dinner special, which was a beef stew of some kind, and my partner got the gyros. We will absolutely be returning!

I seldom pan a restaurant this much but lawd, there's a limit. Dinner here recently and nothing was done well, in spite of nice staff. Their tzatziki must not have been made with Greek yogurt, and it was very bland. They even cut the accompanying carrot sticks too thick, so they weren't nice to eat. Shrimp and lamb overcooked, rice in a small portion and dry. Inept Greek salad with excessively large chunks. Bad retsina. Mediocre dessert. Never again.

We went here for a late lunch and shared a couple different items. We ended up sitting outside as the inside was hot dark and uncomfortable, outside was perfect. The waitress helped us pick a few items- all i can say is wow!! The dance of flavors that were present-were phenomenal. It was spicy but not just for the sake of heat but rather flavor spice. The chutney medley was a pleasant surprise to calm the spice. I was a bit concerned eating outside, as we have had trouble with being victims of aggressive panhandling at other restaurants in the area, but I was pleased that we had absolutely no trouble and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The waitress was so full of knowledge on the whole menu- from spice to ingredients and how different order combination would compliment each other. We will absolutely be back

Writing this after a couple Months- 2 of us ordered a lamb dish and 2 of us ordered chicken. I was so unhappy with my dish I told the waitress that I didn't like it. She didn't care and charged me for the entire dish even though I didn't eat it. The 3 others were disappointed with the dry chicken and lamb but didn't say anything. The service was slow overall, we still suffered through it. Never coming back, because they made us pay for food we didn't really like.

Outstanding quality and flavors. We ate Mediterranean; will return for Greek/Indian.

The meal is finished but I can still feel all the flavors dancing across my tongue. Seriously, I haven't had a meal this good in a long time. Every single dish had such depth. The saganaki was perfectly tangy. The skordalia was smooth. It had a spice that instead of just heat was garlic! The tzatziki was bright. I cannot express with enough enthusiasm how flavorful everything was. Besides tasting great, the service was friendly and warm. The atmosphere was cheerful. And the prices are very reasonable. Honestly, I'm just so excited by some place that recognizes flavor is more than salt and spiciness is more than just pepper heat. Oh, and try the rice pudding. Do your palate a favor and get three courses here.

Best Mediterranean in Eugene! Great staff that goes above and beyond to please you! Wide range of menu items that fail to displease. Native Greek recipes alongside Indian inspired dishes, all packed with flavor! The aroma as you enter trumps that of any restaurant. The lines between comercial cooking and truly blessed home-cooked meals are blurred within these walls.

We had high hopes for this restaurant because it had a cute ambiance, was absolutely packed and when presented with the appetizers thought it was a great choice (the dolmas are delicious) so we were excited for the rest of our dinner. We ignored the sour demeanor of the first server. She would not engage when asked about what olive oil they used and she had a bit of attitude when we asked for water... she went to other tables that were seated after us. Then after a 50-minute wait she presented us with the food and INSISTED that we ordered something we had not... despite the fact we all said it was not ordered... to be fair, she offered to fix the issue, but after a 50 minute wait everyone was hungry and impatient. What happened to the customer being always right? It would have been one thing if she had said she will get it fixed, but her insistence on our order was something we never experienced in the food service industry before. We were then given another server who was absolutely GREAT! Unfortunately, the entire 'dining out' experience was ruined by the first server who has ABSOLUTELY NO business being in customer service.
