Mitsos Greek Traiterie

Tweede Hugo de Grootstraat 25-H, Amsterdam, Netherlands

Mitsos is a Greek traiterie on the Tweede Hugo de Grootstraat that's been at the same spot since 1996. Since September 2022, the Gunes-Sahin family runs the place, with Funda in the kitchen and Can up front. It still feels like a family operation, just a new generation of it. The food is homemade, daily fresh, and covers meat, fish, veggie, and vegan options. You can take it to go or eat there. The pita gyros is made a la minute with your pick of pork, chicken, minced meat, or veggie, stuffed with tzatziki, red onion, and tomato. They even do it as a build-it-yourself kit for home. The moussaka is the classic with eggplant, potato, veal mince, and bechamel, and there's a veggie version too. Desserts like baklava, rizogalo, and chocolate pie sit in the display case, all house-made. They also stock Greek deli goods, many of which they pick out and import directly from local producers on Crete. So it's not just a spot to grab lunch, it's also a place to shop for the
