You will get the worst visa interview experience here. Visa officer was very mean and didn’t care, she acted like you owe her something for her to let you to go to Greece. Extremely picky and trying to wrong you to reject your visa application.

I have been trying for a month just to get an appointment for my passport. Now I’m told I’ll have to wait another month? Someone needs to fix this location. My family in Chicago got their appointment immediately.

If I could give them one star, I would gladly do this. The lobby has been recently remodeled, to appear like an interrogation room (with the counter glass windows being replaced by double sided mirrors). Who on earth thought about this? When you talk to the staff, hiding behind these mirrors you enter the world of Greek bureaucracy. Instead of serving the public, the staff enjoys sending Greek citizens on a spin. During a conversation, I found out that according to their information, Davis is not in California. If any Greek has fond memories of their country, they only need to visit this place to be reminded why they are no longer there.

Though it does not help that they were understaffed and have to deal with Greek bureaucracy, they were all in all very responsive through email and were eager to complete requests for any certificate in a timely manner. Keep up on the good work!
