Welcome to Ikaros, a taste of Greece in the heart of Oakland, California.

We are a family-owned Greek restaurant that has been serving the community for years, offering a warm and inviting atmosphere where you can indulge in authentic Greek cuisine. Executive Chef George’s great grandfather emigrated from Greece to Jerusalem in the late 1800s. George began cooking with his grandmother in Ramallah when he was a boy. With her he learned to use a range of spices from across the Mediterranean including Northern Africa - allspice, sumak, cumin, cloves and coriander - to bring out the best flavors in savory food.

Many of our dishes come from this blend of George’s Greek lineage and youth in Jerusalem and Ramallah, and all of our dishes are made with the freshest and finest ingredients. From our handmade dolmades to our savory moussaka to our carefully sourced Greek wines, our menu is full of traditional Greek favorites that will satisfy any craving. Come join us for a memorable dining experience that will transport you to the beautiful Mediterranean.
