My husband is from Greece, well Crete, actually. We stumbled on this place on the way home one day and thank goodness we did! We didn't get a chance to eat in the deli (although the owner kept bringing us samples to try), but we did shop in the market. It is a very new store, so the shelves aren't full yet, they're trying to figure out what the customers want. We felt the selection was very good--canned goods, dried beans, fresh fruits and vegetables, frozen meats, and of course olives and feta and desserts. The prices are very reasonable. My husband says they're better than anywhere he's seen.
We got a leg of lamb and it was the most tasty lamb I've had in a long time. I'm a fan of sheep feta, whether French or Bulgarian. I think we got the Bulgarian this time. Everything we got (except the Baklava-type desserts, I wasn't so crazy about them, and I love dessert!!) The owner let us try their hummus, tabouli, and falafal -- all were fantastic!!
The owner even showed us his catalog and said he would special order anything we wanted! Super friendly, clean, good menu in the cafe, can't wait to try it! This is a fantastic jewel of a place on Pinnacle Peak & 19th Ave, just south of Norterra.
