| - Having recently relocated to the area from Chicago, I was on the hunt for some authentic and delicious Greek cuisine. I have a firm belief that the best places are usually the ones you least suspect. I actually found Diner on 50 from Yelp and decided to give it a try a few months back. Its very unsuspecting (seriously, I've passed it countless times without a thought) but man, do they know how to make Greek food. My go to order is the platter they serve with Greek style chicken, Greek Salad, rice and I upgrade from potatoes or plain French fries to Greek fries (topped with feta and tzatziki - trust me on this one) with lots of sides of tzatziki. It is literally so delicious and satisfying to eat. And the staff couldn't have been any friendlier. After having tried it the first time, I convinced my in laws that we needed to get take out from there. They were skeptical but went along with it. I placed the to go order right there (you can order over the phone of course) and Jimmy the Greek (that's what he told me to call him) went out of his way to make sure that I was taken care of while I waited for my order. He went as far as to make me a latte on the house to drink while I waited. If that's not customer service, I don't know what is. So, to get to the point, I brought the food home and everyone went wild for it, seriously, loved the food. This has now become one of our favorite places to order dinner from when we do order out on occasion. My father in law has gone as far to say that the Greek fries are actually too good and he cant order them too often because he cant resist eating them all and they're better than any poutine he's ever had (this man is a huge poutine fan), so take that for what its worth. Therefore, I'm really impressed with this unsuspecting gem of a diner. Its simple, classic, no fuss and delicious! Give this unsuspecting gem a try!
