Mykonos Wins Best Greek: 2023 Orlando Sentinel Foodie Awards - Critic’s Choice

We are thrilled to share some exciting news with our Mykonos family! Mykonos Authentic Greek Restaurant was honored with the Best Greek: Critic’s Choice Award in the 2023 Orlando Sentinel Foodie Awards. This recognition from the Orlando Sentinel’s expert critics is a testament to our commitment to bringing the authentic flavors of Greece to Longwood.

Since opening our doors in 2000, our family has worked tirelessly to create a dining experience that captures the essence of Greek cuisine. From our beloved spanakopita to our signature moussaka, every dish is crafted with passion and the freshest ingredients. This award is not just a win for us, but for everyone who has dined with us, shared a meal with loved ones, and supported our restaurant over the years.

We extend our deepest gratitude to the Orlando Sentinel critics for this incredible recognition and to our loyal customers who continue to make Mykonos their go-to spot for authentic Greek food.

As we celebrate this honor, we remain dedicated to maintaining the high standards that earned us this award. We look forward to welcoming you back to Mykonos for more delicious meals, memorable moments, and a true taste of Greece.

Thank you for being part of our journey and for helping us achieve this milestone!

From the Orlando Sentinel's Amy Drew Thompson:

"New restaurants aren’t necessarily new. Sometimes they’re just new to you. Or, in the case of Longwood’s long-lauded Mykonos, me. A while back, I finally made it in to check out the humble digs of this family-owned establishment and truly enjoyed the experience — from charred seafood apps and flaming saganaki to cool, creamy spreads to hearty Greek specialties (Rich pastitsio! Warmly spiced braised lamb shank!) — and recently returned to reassess. I’m always grateful for repeat reader recommendations that take me to new discoveries I’ll happily pay forward. This year, they get the top spot."
