We had the three dip platter (all but fava), it was delicious and the pita bread was so fresh. One friend tried the meatballs and said they were good. We each had a gyro: two of us had the traditional which happened to be pork (not expected), one had chicken, and the other had beef-lamb. I think the pork in the traditional didn’t live up to my expectations, it was tasty but the meat itself was a bit dry so next time I go I’ll get the beef-lamb. Everyone else liked their selections and we enjoyed the fries. The fries come on the gyro and they are more than enough, I placed mine of the side to eat separately. We had wine, the restaurant is byob but we purchased a bottle. The wine is sourced by The University Wine Company, you do have to purchase it separately from your dinner bill. The customer service was great, Eryn did a good job checking in on us and also just good interpersonal skills. We will all be back for another visit soon.
Nice Greek food Definitely inspired by authentic Greek cuisine. I have had many similar dishes and these were pretty close. Staff was great. Place was huge. Very clean.
It's truly a neatly designed decor. Waiter was very friendly and helpful. Food was delicious. My husband said he could eat the red pepper feta dip with a spoon, it was so good. And one of the best gyros I've had in a long time. Definitely will be returning!
Lovd the food but sometimes the amount varies on take out! I've gone back in to show them Orzo, peppers etc and they corrected the amount. So was happy wasn't a debate. My husband and I really like the shrimp and chicken dishes along with tomato and chicken noodle soups. Baklava and yogurt desert delicious!
This was our first time trying The Greek and we will definitely be back! We were greeted by friendly staff and only had a 10 minute wait. It was a very busy day. The appetizers were delicious! Our gyros and gyro platters were very good. The server was attentive and an overall great experience.
This was our first time at The Greek for dinner on the recommendation of a friend. We had a delicious dinner that started with a glass of the chardonnay from University Wine Company and the grilled calamari and three dip appetizer. The three dips were all good and the calamari in the garlicky butter marinade was really good. We both had the lamb kabobs for dinner with veggies over orzo. The lamb was prepared beautifully at medium rare like we asked for. For dessert we had the chocolate cake which was delicious but a bit to much after so much good food so we took most of it home. The staff was friendly and we had a great first visit. We will be back for sure.
Food was fantastic!! My friend and I got gyros (she got the beef/lamb one and I got the “traditional” with pork) and they were to die for. The desert was great too!! Only downside was there was a bit of a wait despite seeming like they weren’t super busy? But maybe they just had a lot of to-go orders. Cute little Greek atmosphere and great overall vibe. Will definitely be going back! Another downside I thought of: it doesn’t seem like there’s too many dairy free or gluten free options :/ such a shame because it was all so tasty!
I went there during Christmas holidays and the decorations over the restaurant is pretty good. Besides, the service is it is excellent as well. However, I‘m not a fan of Greek food so that’s reason why I think the cream is so strong and the cuisines are not as tasty as I think. In short, I still think it’s a good place for hanging out dinner though.
