This is damn good Greek.
The food is straight amazing, lamb of all kinds, kefthates, dolmathes, meatballs etc., etc...
Any of the lamb dishes are really tasty. I used to work on Bakerview and would come here after work when I could spend a little $$ on a really good meal. It's a little more than the average restaurant regarding price, but worth it.
The decor is also a little corny, like a cheesy Vegas style Greek archetecture thing. -

We went a week or so ago, husband had the mixed seafood grill and I had the lemon chicken both were really good. My chicken was juicy and flavorful, a very large portion, it came with tzatziki sauce that was oh so delicious. Husbands seafood was really nice also.
The service was great, very attentive and friendly. We are looking forward to going back and trying some other stuff. -

I've always enjoyed the food here, and it's very convenient to the adjacent property Hampton Inn. The seafood medley in white wine sauce is one of my favorites. I can see where service can be slow at times, based on staffing, but I've generally been fortunate. A couple of times, I've been one of only 2-3 patrons there.

Our favorite for Greek food in Whatcom County. The lamb in either form is fabulous. It would be five stars except there is no view, not horrible, but not stong on ambiance.

If you are staying at the Hampton Inn in Bellingham, Washington, I would strongly advise you to NOT go to Mykonos Greek Restaurant for dinner. Although the food is really good, it by no means saves this restaurant from its terrible service.
My family and I went to Mykonos because it was within walking distance of our hotel (the Hampton Inn). We arrived at about 8:15pm on a Friday night and the place was surprisingly empty. There were only a few tables of customers and two big tables that consisted off high school soccer players and their parents. While we were waiting to be seated, we took a look at the list of specials and my father and I both agreed that the Prime Rib sounded very appealing.
A bus girl was cleaning a table and saw us standing there, she sat us down and told us that our server would be there momentarily. While we were waiting, I noticed that there only seemed to be three people working the entire floor of customers. After ten minutes of waiting, the bus girl returns to our table to ask us for our orders. I distinctly remember her saying that she was not our server when she sat us, so it appeared that our server was too busy and she was helping him out. My father and I both requested the special, to which she replied they were all out of. She said she would go back into the kitchen to see what she could do and she would be right back out.
We waited 15 minutes until finally another waiter came over to take our orders. While we were waiting, I observed the same bus girl/waitress bring bills and wait on the soccer family table. Now, I wasn't going to complain yet. I worked in the restaurant industry for two years and I know how people can be, especially large parties. So I was going to give this girl the benefit of the doubt for not coming back to our table and letting us know about the special.
Our new waiter seemed a little stand offish. I don't want to say that he was rude, but rather not very caring. Most dishes here come with rice or potatoes. I asked if they offered brown rice and the waiter gave me a look like he was shocked that I would even asked and muttered "It's just rice pilaf." He also gave my dad a hard time when he told him all he wanted was a small greek salad. After taking our orders, he said he would be right out with some pita bread.
20 minutes later, no pita bread. I was getting upset at this point because the soccer family had long since left the restaurant. This left them with no excuse of the poor service. I noticed that other patrons seemed annoyed at the lack of service as well. It seemed like that all three workers at the restaurant would come out just to do something like deliver food and then they would retreat back into the kitchen. There was no floor presence whatsoever.
Another 15 minutes later, our food comes out. We were sat down at 8:30 and it took almost an hour for us to get food. When the waiter brought out our food, he still did not bring any pita bread. My dad finally asked him where it went and he said he would go get it. Another 15 minutes later, the pita bread finally arrived.
When we were finished eating, I just wanted to pay the bill and get out of there. It took another 10 minutes for them to bring the check and then to bring me back my receipt.
Now, as far as the food goes, it was pretty delicious. I ordered the lamb and it was very tender. The Greek Salad is also very tasty as well. My parents complained that the Chicken that they ordered was a little dry however. But for this lackluster service, I rather go to the Greek spot at the food court then come here again.
The atmosphere wasn't very appealing ever. The entire restaurant was very dark. It was like they knew it wasn't going to be busy today so they just had the lights half on so they could cut costs on the energy bill. The pantheon thing they have is pretty cool and is where we sat, but again, since the place was so dark it didn't really matter.
The end does not justify the means is the best way to describe Mykonos. Although the food is delicious, there is no chance that I will put up with such appalling service again. If you're staying at the Hampton Inn, I would recommend you just drive to the Red Robin's or even the Mc Donalds, which is where we should have gone that night.

Our favorite place for Greek food in B'ham.
On the outside, the place looks kinda like a bordello, with lots of pink neon and grecian columns, but the quality of the food and the friendly staff make up for it.
I always get the lamb souvlaki and my wife most often gets a huge appetizer plate with dolmades, spanakopita, keftedes, etc. Their tatziki sauce is ridiculously good, with so much garlic it ought to be a sin. But if sauce that good is wrong, I don't wanna be right! -

Went to dinner here with my wife and baby. The service was great very nice girl was there delivering everything in a timely manor. The food was really good I had the Mixed Seafood that was sooo good I would get that again. My wife had the roast chicken and that was very tasty I had a hard time not eating to much of her meal. The portion sizes were good and I was very full! The only thing that was not really good was the pita bread it was hot and buttered but was really flavorless and bland. We enjoyed the meal and service and will be back for more.

I was fortunate enough to arrive at Mykonos for a late lunch when it was not busy. This was probably not adequate enough to determine how well the establishment functions during peak times, but we were pleased with the service we received. Service was not a concern during our visit.
The star of our meal was the immolated halloumi cheese appetizer. OOOPAH! What a delicious showpiece. The chicken gyro I had was on par with most good Greek restaurants. -

I used to love going here for dinner, "used to" being the key term here.
The food has been really good every time I have gone for dinner, I have eaten here at least 2 dozen times, and nothing but good words for the food itself.
The service here has never been good, though the food was good enough, that I put up with it because dinner was so tasty when you finally got it.
But eventually the service got SO BAD the good food couldn't compensate for it any longer, tis a shame because food wise its the best greek food in town.
I stopped eating here based on bad service alone. A strong "stay away" for this place. -

Not much atmosphere and service was just okay, but the food was good apart from the salad which was nothing special. Hot and fresh pita bread & great souvlaki. It was not terrible, but not memorable.
No bloody bazouki player, which was very disappointing. -

The service is meh, but the food is amazing! I would probably kill for the tzatziki recipe. I have tried to reproduce it, but to no avail. I recommend the spinach and feta stuffed chicken breast. My mom really likes the dolmades and my dad's favorite: arni psito is quite amazing.
Recently, the starting Greek salad has shrunk which makes me sad. But they still give you warm, buttery pieces of pita bread. Make sure to catch them for more so that you can have it with the extra tzatziki that comes with your meal!
