John's Grecian Delight was fantastic. It may sound like I'm putting you on when you read this review, but John's Grecian Delight was no joke. The food is wonderful and the price is so reasonable that it seemed unreal. Let me start with the strange part. John's Grecian Delight is in the lower level of what looks like an abandoned Mall. You have to go in the back, and go downstairs to where the restaurant is located. I just followed my GPS, but it really did look like the GPS was misdirecting me. The back of the mall has very few cars, weeds are growing up through cracks in the parking lot, and it looks like it's not in use any longer. But, it's there, and it's worth the journey. In fact, it's like a treasure hunt! It's a small menu, but everything on it is great. I'm going to upload photos of my food. I will also upload photos of the restaurant, the menu board, the pastries, and the salad bar. So if you want really good food at a very reasonable price you need to check this place out. It's only open for lunch and early dinner, until about 7 p.m., so be prompt and bring an appetite. You'll be glad you did.

I remember this place as a child growing up in Bellevue when Southroads Mall was still bustling. The fact that this place is still there arrests to its amazing food. It has become a gem as they say. Family-owned and family-centered in a world where mainstream and business now dominates. Authentic, prices are a steal for what you get, and that tells me that they care more about their customers than profit. You have to do a little search on the bottom floor of the mall, but even that is its own cool adventure and adds to the proof that this place is phenomenal. The awards show it even so far since the mall's closing! I have provided pictures to show it!

I’ve been eating here since I was five, long before I even knew what a gyro was. Stepping into John’s floods me with nostalgia in the best way possible. I’m reminded of lunch dates with my grandma, stopping by for dinner with my high school best friend and introducing my husband to the best gyros in the Omaha metro area. John takes so much pride in his food and you can tell he truly values each and every patron. I really enjoy how he thinly slices the gyro meat allowing it to get crispy on the flat top. His tzatziki is the best I’ve ever had!! Thick in consistency and full of flavor. No one does it like John!

I wish I had taken a photo, but the food looked and smelt so good I started eating right away and enjoyed every bite. Made it back again and I brought my wife with me. We each got a gyro w/fries. My gyro was just as good as last time and my wife loved hers as well. I actually got a photo this time. If you like Greek food then you'll enjoy John's Grecian Delight. It has a nice quiet atmosphere, the food service is quick, and the employees are very courteous. The prices are better than fast food places and the food taste better. If they ask if you want sauce on your gyro, say yes. The sauce is amazing.

To start, the food here is simply amazing! I have yet to find better Greek food anywhere else. The portions are generous, and the prices are incredibly reasonable, considering the quality of the food. John, the owner, is a wonderful person who has been devoted to serving the community for many many years. I suggest that you pay a visit and try it out, as I am confident that you will want to return for more!
