Samos
Samos is a Greek gem located, appropriately, in Greektown. Expect a line when you go no matter what day or time it is, but the food is well worth the wait. The tzatziki is perfectly creamy and tangy and the pita is warm and buttery. Other highlights include the souvlaki and the grilled octopus.
