Why everyone keeps coming back.

Nestled in the lively heart of Aix-en-Provence at 13 Rue des Marseillais, Le Samos offers an inviting taste of Greek street food with a fresh, fast-food twist. This unique eatery skillfully blends the casual flair of a hamburger joint with the bold, vibrant flavors of traditional Greek cuisines, making it a standout destination for anyone craving an authentic yet affordable meal.

The menu here is a flavorful journey, featuring mouthwatering kebabs that have clearly won the hearts of locals and visitors alike. From the perfectly spiced doner kebabs to the generously portioned mixed platters, each dish bursts with rich, smoky aromas and textures that are both tender and satisfying. Customers praise Le Samos for its thoughtfully prepared dishes; the kebabs are juicy and packed with savory layers, wrapped in thick, hearty bread that complements the fillings well.

Solid kebab! The lettuce looked questionable , so we opted to have more cabbage and no lettuce. Very tasty! Wish we had asked for the wrap, because the bread they use is quite thick.

Truly the best sandwich I’ve ever eaten. Took my breath away. I’m ready and willing to invest in the longevity of this business just so that others can experience what I felt upon the first bite of their chicken gyros. I hope this institution lasts longer than the legacy of Zola.
