| - I was somewhat saving this for my 200th review as I wanted it to be a write-up about something good. Greco's Fresh Grill in the Blakeney area near Rea Rd and Ardrey Kell Roads is one of the best places in the area to go for fresh, quick, and reasonably priced, mostly authentic Greek food.
It is counter service. Peruse the menu above the grills and sneezeguards, then order what you'd like and they'll bring it to your table. Lamb gyros, chicken gyros, vegetarian stuffed grape leaves, lemon oregano fries, etc.. I have had the chicken gyro, the plain hummus, and the lemon oregano fries. The gyro is delicious; they do not skimp on the chicken, and there is a lot of seasoning and oil on it. Do NOT remove it from the foil lest you would like oil dripping all over you. The hummus is probably the best I have had around here. It's very fresh and there are no fillers in it. The menu states "If it's harder to pronounce than a Greek last name, then you shouldn't be eating it.". The lemon oregano fries are decent. They are not necessarily my flavor preference, but they are good for what they are.
The people working, from the Greek cooks/owners, to the teenage girls usually running the register, are all very friendly. So if you want a good, fresh gyro at a fair price in south Charlotte, Greco's is the place to go.
