Panos Restaurant

I've been gone from Erie for 30 years I can't believe this place is still there. They must be doing something right. I wonder if Nick is still around? They use to serve the best greek hamburgers and hot dogs around. If I ever get back I'll have to find out M.Allen more

Always known as "The Place to Go" after a long night of partying it really is much more. The place has never been known for its crisp and clean atmosphere. It's typical of a greasy spoon but with that in mind you also get that great greasy spoon eating. Breakfasts are always available and the offer a good array of choices. There are regulars that come in for breakfast and of course the older 'coffee club' gangs of 50+ retirees. In the late evening and wee hours of the morning if you're not out partying... I'd avoid the place. It can be hectic and a bit overwhelming if you're not as 'happy' as the clients.... I'm being nice to the drunks!! LOL During the day and early evenings it's a great choice for families. Their Greek food is a must but if you have already experienced that go ahead and move on to a good old fashioned breakfast any time of day. Reasonable prices make this very family friendly. Waitresses/Waiters can be anywhere from great to horrid... it just depends. I've experienced both here. Don't let one bad experience with a bad wait staff make you not come back though... the food is really great diner cooking that you have to experience in your life! more

I have been to Panos Restaurant many times, and what you see is what you get. The food is always pretty good, nothing amazing, and the service can either be great or awful. I have gotten servers that are completely upleasant from the get go because I was in a large group of 19-21 year olds. I have also gotten servers that are very nice and friendly. I think the main difference is the unpleasant ones are usually older bitter women that assume we arent going to order anything or tip, when in reality they are just stereotyping and we were planning on just eating something and tipping and leaving, just like anyone else. So if you go in a large group, dont expect to get great happy service, otherwise, its a good restaurant with consistently good food. more

I love Panos Restaurant because of the great breakfasts they have. They are very reasonable, service is fast and the food is great. It needs to be updated, but I think that has a lot to do with its charm. I love it! You can get bacon, eggs, hash browns, toast and coffee all for under $3.00. They have the absolute best coffee and free refills which keep coming and coming! more

Panos is a locally owned restaurant that is open 24 hours a day. Perfect for when winding down after a long night of partying. Don't let the name fool you, they serve not only Greek food but American dishes as well. Large portions, you get more than what you pay for. Breakfast, lunch, dinner and all points in between, your best bet is Panos. more

This restaurant is a perfect cozy diner in a convenient area of town. We have been going to Panos for as long as I can remember. They are one of those great places where you can get breakfast anytime of day. They're open 24 hours, so if you're hungry, they're open. They have a great range on their menu with everything priced at great low prices. more
