Reviews
The gyro meat was dry, hard like jerky, such that my daughter BROKE HER TOOTH biting into it. Anything cooked in oil tasted & smelled rancid. The pita’s were stale and hard, snapped in half like a cracker. The tabuleh, which I was so excited for, was sour, overpowered with lemon & had the acidic, off taste of something that had aged to the point of fermentation. Baklava is honey & heaven so I was sure it would be the saving grace. No. It’ tasted scorched and burnt.
The falafel….smh, lived up to its reputation. It’s so awful that it can’t escape criticism even in the positive reviews for The Greek. Cold, mushy patties of what tastes like unflavored cold oatmeal and dirty oil.
I see plenty of good reviews, but many recent ones that mimic my experience. It’s a shame when quality drops so quickly. I grew up in an ethnically diverse neighborhood & this is NOT the lively; flavorful Mediterranean food I desperately hoped it would be. Once my daughter’s tooth is examined by her dentist I may hand deliver this mess back to the establishment with her bill. Appalling.
The falafel should be labeled differently, maybe Greek falafel? It is not light and fluffy soaked chickpeas. It is more like fried hummus balls with a little onion and parsley and tasted greasy. If you are strict vegan, it is fried in same oil as chicken, which they do tell you if you ask. The tomato was fresh and the pita was thick, fluffy and warm. There was a good amount of hummus on the falafel pita. Their online menu mentions you can get tzatziki (regular or vegan on it, but they do not have vegan tzatziki. The dolmas did taste homemade. You get a side of 4 for $3.99.
The gyro meat was ok. The gyro platter was half lettuce, tomato salad, dressed well with dry feta crumbles and 4 strips of meat, a few fries which were hot and crispy, and pita bread.
The metal tables and chairs made it even colder inside and weren’t really comfortable. The Greek music was nice, not too loud.
My husband, who is Greek, said hello in Greek to the owner. He said it back, but never came out to see how our food was, so I would say not extremely friendly, compared to other Greek restaurants we have been to. They were not overly busy. We ate at around 2:00 pm.
Order at the counter and a server will bring the food to you.
My husband had the Greek burger, which came with fries. I had a bite of the burger. It was so tasty!
I had the Greek gyro bowl. It came with some hummus. I didn’t realize it came with rice at the bottom. It was very good.
Decent portions and reasonable prices.
We’ll return here to try some of their other items on the menu. All the food photos I see on Facebook look wonderful.
I do wish they would open another restaurant in Leland. They were supposed open sometime in 2024. I hope they will open one in Leland.
All the flavors were delish. I had to ask them to heat up the Spanikopeta as it was cool in the middle which they did with a smile!
Made the flavor of the pie explode. Excellent!
We will be back! Service with a smile!
