First of all WOW! Definitely my new favorite place. The trio of spreads was beyond delicious, my favorite being the middle one; the whipped feta, the textures and flavor was perfect. The tzatziki and humus were also amazing, the most flavorful I have had in a restaurant. I got the falafel pita and without a doubt was the best falafel I’ve had, typically it is dry, but not this one, somehow was moist with still being authentic tasting. My mom got the pita platter with gyro and a salad, I only tried her salad, which was almost overflowing and wonderful, perfect mix of everything and amount of sauce. They had white and wheat pita, both SO good, not dry at all.
The place itself had a great vibe and was very clean, with nice music playing. They have a lot of seating so you won’t feel crowded at all, and even lit up outside seating.
The service was so wonderful as well, allowing us time to choose without pressuring us, giving us options and even creating fun conversation, which was much needed after a long day of work. We were checked on multiple times by multiple different staff.
I WILL be going back and abundantly recommend others to try.

Order to go. It. Was. Terrible. Of course, once it’s at your house who wants to go back. My steak sandwich didn’t have the au jus and was like dried beef and chewy, and without the au jus I couldn’t even make it palatable. My other sandwich was supposed to be chicken and was a regular gyro-for my wife who only eats chicken and seafood. It all went in the trash and we ate leftovers. Very disappointed.

4 Stars – Great Fast Casual Greek at UTC!

For anyone craving quick, delicious Greek food in the UTC area, look no further than Louis Pappas Fresh Greek. We tried the traditional gyro and the dolmades—stuffed grape leaves with seasoned ground beef—and both were packed with flavor. The hummus with pita was fresh and satisfying. One tip: the salads are huge! A large can easily feed 3–4 people, so portion accordingly. Friendly service and fast for a sit-down spot. A great fast food-style Greek experience with generous portions and tasty classics. Check the photos before you go!

Upon entering first thing I notice is wall mural. Nice tables and clean! Owner definitely takes pride. I was greeted pleasantly by the order taker. I expressed it was my first time. She went over a few favorites with me. I was here for a great Gyro. I only ordered that and a water. Bill was 10.98. Not too bad. Meal was delivered to table. Refill drink station. All clean. 5 tables in restaurant at 12:30 pm on Thursday.

Gyro was ok. Pita bread was falling apart. Ingredients were fresh. Sliced tomatoes not chunks. It was warm, not hot. I asked the delivery girl at my table for extra tazikki, to which she responded we charge 85 cents for extra. I declined. Not enough on the gyro. Kinda dry. Onions were crunchy.

Personally I dislike restaurants that charge for extra sauce or dressing. The cheapness causes people to go elsewhere. Just raise your price. I felt she could of said, understanding it is your first time here and the fact you did tip on your order I will give you what you request, but be aware for next visit.

I will not return. Not impressed. Like I stated it’s OK, not blowing me away or wowing me.

Very basic “Greek fast Food”, super confusing to order especially if it’s your first time here. Food is definitely not the best. Chopped salad is super sour, Gyro meat was warmed up on the grill. Won’t recommend, lots of better Greek places around

First off, you can’t go wrong with Greek food. It’s healthier than most options out there. This place makes the most delicious, HUGE portion salads. I also love their pick 2 combos. They give you plenty of food. Everything is fresh. The place is very clean, and their prices are very fair. $12.95 for pick 2 is a great deal for lunch. I always come here and my only disappointment is that I don’t live closer to come everyday. Every weekend will have to do.

Unfortunately, not the best Greek food I’ve had in my life. Menu is confusing, getting me to order a side of salad, even though it comes with a salad. The intention they say is so you can make your own sandwich. This was the pita platter. If I wanted a sandwich I would have ordered the pita sandwich. Not sure the owner thought through their menu options before going live. The Keftate (meatballs) were over cooked making it taste like Trader Joe’s frozen meatballs. While it has Greek tones and vibes this type of quality food would never be served in Greece. Disappointed this cost $17.

My wife and I randomly stopped in for lunch and had a Very nice meal. It’s one of those places that you order at the counter, they bring you your meal and you leave your dishes for them to clear for you. You get your own drinks, napkins utensils, etc.
The food was EXCELLENT, however, we waited a fair amount of time for the rather simple dishes we got (gyro, pita sandwich and dolmades).
We ordered the dolmades (stuffed grape leaves) as an appetizer but had to ask twice for them and they were delivered about 10 minutes after our main dishes had arrived. We were almost done by the time they got to our table. They were out of forks, so I asked the guy at the counter for some. He brought us forks a few minutes later, but I noticed when I went to refill my drinks that they still had not restocked the forks at the self-serve station.
Overall food was GREAT. Probably one of the best gyros I’ve had in Florida. The service was not good at all. They ask for a tip up front. Due to my experience, I would suggest not tipping when you order, and rather leave a cash tip based on your experience and the service you received. I’ve worked for tips and strongly feel they are earned, not simply entitled to. Besides, this is more like a fast food place, so they are making at least minimum wage, unlike table-service restaurants where they are not. I don’t mind leaving tips at these places, but I definitely did not receive service compatible with the 20% tip I left when ordering.
4-star review solely based on quality of food. Otherwise it would have been a 3. Hope this helps!

I loved the food! Actually it’s the best food I’ve had at a restaurant in a long time. Everything was quality. Caiden was so upbeat for a young man, thanks for making our Christmas Eve all the more magical! My kids loved your playfulness.

Merry Christmas!

What a pleasant surprise to try this place. Probably passed 20 times thinking it was a high-end sit down restaurant with table service. It’s actually more a modern bowl, pita and plate restaurants just like a CAVA or Chipotle. The taste of the meat was amazing, portion size was great. It’s also super clean and nice atmosphere. We’ll definitely come back!
