| - I pretty much love everything there is about Greek food. I would be happy with absolutely anything off a Greek menu. That being said, you'd think I would be a little more picky considering this is a chain restaurant and not a traditional mom-and-pop shop. However, I've eaten here a few times and I've enjoyed it every time. Since it's a chain I doubt they start from scratch on every dish; however, the food has been nothing but fantastic each time I've come!
Our server pointed me toward a mid-range Greek red wine which I didn't get the name of but was mildly tart with little aftertaste. The gyro sandwich is enormous and not greasy at all, and the meat is soft and chewy. Didn't come with enough tzatziki but that's because I like to drown my french fries in it as well as putting it on my sandwich! French fries were thin-cut and crispy on the outside, chewy inside.
Happy hour specials are pretty good and they do "reverse" happy hour as well, which is later at night. The happy hour menu includes "Greek" sliders and mini pizzas which I don't think are on the regular menu.
Spanakopita is flaky and the filling is lighter than expected! There is a hummus trio that comes with yet more pita bread, but I found that I prefer the original, plain hummus. The other two flavors I don't remember that well as I didn't care for them much.
Mousaka is hearty and warm and a big dish. Awesome comfort food.
For dessert, the baklava, while awesome with complex flavors and textures, was a little heavy (and a little oily on the bottom) and served with whipped cream, which I could have done without.
Overall, I like to come here because I always end up liking what I order.
