Ate supper here as we had other business in the area. We were pleasantly surprised by how good the food was. In particular, all three meats we tried (chicken, gyro, and lamb/beef kebab) were excellent - soft, succulent, and with a delicious authentic grilled taste, which is often surprisingly lacking in the meat from other Mediterrenean places. The sides didn't disappoint either; the basmati rice was flavourful and cooked properly (not hard, grainy, or old), the tazatziki was creamy but properly flavoured so there was a nice tangy balance, and the tabbouleh, not usually my favourite, blew my mind (crunchy, fresh, and a perfect foil to the rice in texture and taste). To round it all off, I had an excellent cup of hot tea, and was thrilled to find it was made properly with boiling water and an Ahmad Cardamom teabag, which is top-tier and very different to weak cheap teabags usually available. Service was pleasant and attentive but unobtrusive. Music was a bit too loud for my liking, but from reading other reviews, clearly this is a matter of personal taste and one can't please everyone. It didn't matter much, though, because the food was so good. Thank you to all concerned for the...
Read moreITS OKAY. It was either this place or the burger place across the way for dinner one night around 6:30pm. My family of 7 had the gyros, burgers, and the gyro platter, none of it was of high quality. The $7.29 gyro wasn’t even as good as some gyro kits you can buy in the grocery store. The gyro platter was over cooked and cold. The burgers were kinda stale or toasted but cold, but overall okay for a place that doesn’t mainly serve that. The fries were bad. Stale, end of the day fries. For the atmosphere of this restaurant I can’t complain the pickings are slim when it comes to buildings in this area and it’s well kept up. The decor is spot on. It’s in a office sort of building and it’s sort of cold. The bathrooms are what you’d expect in an office. This place is the place where when you leave you feel just a little bit dirtier than when you went in. Like after a shower when you go outside barefoot and feel a little less squeaky clean. The emoji I’d give this place: 😕 or :\
Ok I’m not sure why the recent reviews are so good but my only thought is that they went during the day maybe. Also it wasn’t...
Read moreWow. Just wasted 40 bucks on this place. If you like Greek food, or good food in general, don't go to Greek Kouzina. So bad. Bland AF. Hummus is bland like paste, zero flavor. And the tzatziki is so bland...tasted synthetic...it must be the can you got it out of. Steak kabob was bland and the meat was rubbery. Was that eye of round I detected, there, chef? Way to splurge on the finest ingredients. And everyone loves a good well, well, well done steak. I know I do. Yuck. At least the Greek salad dressing can't be bad, right? Wrong. Kraft could produce a better Greek salad dressing in Gary, Indiana without being within a mile of a recipe. Well, there's still dessert. How can you mess that up, right? Baklava had no honey on it. That's right, you're supposed to put honey on it, chef. Don't just buy it by the giant sheet at Costco and serve it up. I guess you wouldn't know, because clearly the nearest thing to Greek cooking you're experienced with is that Arby's gyro you had one time, which is way better than...
