THE FAT GREEK - THE //Freaken.Addictive.Tasty// GREEK
As you walk in it seemed like a place where you order up front & then wait for your food... it is a sit down resteraunt. I was stupid & tried to order at the register my first time.
The inside is petite but the tables are well spaced with enough room so you don't feel so stuffy. Like most greek resteraunt the interior decor was all blue & trims of white with random white pillars placed all around. The location for this place is easy to miss but it is right next to Ralphs grocery store in the same plaza as boiling crab.
Staff was friendly & I had to see the most halarious judgemental facial expression our server gave us when he saw that we finished our food... it was a look of surprise & just dumfounded ahahaha Also the comment of the lady that dropped off our food was "O my you guys ordered too much food" for some reason because it is more of a family owned & the reactions were sincere & cute in my opinion ahahha but also used to the expression since we get it a lot...
HUMMUS & PITA 5.75 - Enough citrus & enough garlic to actually taste it. I would have to say the BEST hummus I have tasted thus far. The pitas were also nice & hot although not enough... but you can get another side order for only a $1
FAT GREEK SALAD 7.95 - my mommy used to own a salad shop so there is a specific flavor profile I expect from the dressing for a greek salad & this place brought back my childhood memories! Also they give a great amount of feta cheese to go w/ every bite you take.
GRILLED CHICKEN BREAST 11.95 - a little too healthy for my taste buds but my fiance really appreciated since he likes to be healthy when it comes to choosing dishes. But still the chicken was tender & the pilaf rice was perfect. The dish also came with some fat fries which were soft on the inside & crispy outter.
CHICKEN FAT GREEK GYRO 7.95 - they don't lie when it says FAT gyro... i literally have to take out half of the cut grilled sliced chickens so that I could actually pick up the gyro & eat it instead of trying to fork & knife it. The rest of the chicken I add to the Greek salad =]
BEEF FAT GREEK GYRO 7.95 - juicy pieces of meat & no need to pull it out because the are more flat pieces... but absolutely flavorful and juicy... although I wasn't sure if it was a beef & lamb mix or not.
FRIES 2.00 - fat fries & boat bowls worth which is a lot for only $2
BAKLAVA 4.50 - it had enough crunch to every bite... but i also have never had bad baklava =]
