“ First time visiting this establishment. We have high expectations for this type of food. The Great Greek was hands down the best! From the lady at the counter to the chef, it all was on point and we will definitely be coming back again very soon. Thank you for this great experience...! ”
“ Very yummy food that comes out fresh and hot from this counter serve style eatery. I really enjoyed the tangy crispy feta fries, which I havent seen anywhere else. The gyro was literally perfect. They have fountain sodas, bottled, fancy beverages. If you have time to enjoy your meal at the location, you should! Impeccably clean place. ”
“ We found this place on Google search, and let me tell you, I definitely underestimated this place! I wasnt expecting much, ala typical fast food, but I was very much mistaken! The dining room was very clean, the tables chairs and bathrooms were very well taken care of. The young ladies working the front counter were super helpful, very nice, and answered all of our food related questions. Now let me tell you about the food. It was marvelous i had the Greek burger, and the flavor explosions were amazing, mixing a warm beef Patti with cool filling. The fries were fresh, crisp, and perfectly seasoned. We also had the gyro plate, which was also very good portions and the taste was outstanding! The great Greek is a definite must stop and one place this Google reviewer will be returning to! Update returned here on 0662024 and the food is amazing! Tried different items on the menu and they did not dissapoint! Still super friendly staff and just a pleasant experience all around. Keep it up great geek , I upgraded to a 5 ”
“ Makes sense why its called The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill...its great! We ordered the lamb souvlaki with rice pilaf, grilled steak souvlaki with feta fries, and some baklava for dessert. Everything tasted amazing, very authentic and in the restaurant they play Greek music. Friendly staff and quick service. Recommend! ”
“ The food is amazing! We tried it when you first opened and we were disappointed as we love Mediterranean food. Our go to was Dinos after Aladdin got too expensive to visit and Mystic didnt settle well with us but we tried you again much later and WOW, unbelievable! The soup, rice, beef and chicken, hummus, fries and the dressing!, unreal. Our only real complaint is that when we come to dine in, it seems that staff spends more time dealing with to go orders than the folks eating in. I now order to go always so that I no longer have to wait so long in the dining room. Please though, let me reiterate, these are merely minor set backs as the food you prepare is honest to God the best Greek food Ive ever had. We are about 60 per cent through the menu, we will try everything you have to offer. Quit note, please make the soup hotter! Thanks all, keep up the good work and youll have a customer for life. Oh and the baklava ice cream, are you kidding us!! Thank you Tim ”
“ Good portion. Great flavor. Fast and easy. Got The Great Greek Euro. It was delicious. I usually skip the tzatziki sauce but for some reason I chose to leave it asis and was not disappointed. Their sauce is good. ”
