Decent food spots in Abingdon, VA are mighty few in number. Abingdon isn't exactly known as a…read moreculinary destination so between the many fast food joints, if you want something a little more ethnic and tasty, Greeko's is one of the few options on hand. It's a small house in Main Street and not terribly big but still felt kind of cosy. I was here for a quick lunch during a weekend workshop but managed to try out their Moussaka. Now I've had Moussaka in Greece and at many Greek restos in Montreal and it's always been presented as a stacked dish, like lasagna. Greeko's version wasn't stacked at all but rather looked liked it had spread over half the plate. Taste-wise, it wasn't bad at all but this is Abingdon after all so my expectations weren't high at all. Service was quick and friendly.

I had the gyro platter with Greek side salad, and could not believe how fast it was served. It was…read morea lot of food for a reasonable price. Small dining area with a few rows of booths and a few tables.

Today was really good weather so everyone was downtown on the patio of every restaurant and we…read moreequally wanted to be on patio. Yeah that didn't happen because this place was also packed on the patio LMAO So keep that in mind. Good weather=slim chances of sitting outside especially on a Saturday. But, we actually enjoyed sitting indoors, less busy inside, more quiet. The seat inside are like a bench style so keep that in mind if you are a huge privacy person. Also the tables are small so if you are ordering a appetizer try to finish before your food comes out that way she can grab it. It was very tight when the entree came. The wall has a unique aesthetic with different items stemming from their culture. Our waitress was really nice, great sense of humor, and very well dressed in appearance. She paid attention in making sure we got a refill. Appetizer: 3 triple dipper hummus where you get pita bread and 3 flavors of hummus. The jalapeno hummus is the only one that stood out with a taste and flavor. The other two tasted the same and was very bland in my opinion. I ordered the Meze Bowl with couscous and it was really good except the hummus I think it was red roasted I can't remember. I would have been happy just with the jalapeno hummus. The person who I was with ended up getting a kabob and he enjoyed his food. Will I go back ? Yes This was my first visit so next time I know what to order. But, I would be more interested in visiting on a regular weekday vs the weekend. I think people should check it out for sure!

This place is a lovely oasis of food and atmosphere downtown. Loved the meze platter variety- the…read moreroasted eggplant was such a standout that I ordered the roasted eggplant entree as well and was not disappointed. Their baba ganoosh was fresh and full of eggplant flavor, with much less additives some places use like mayo. The long grain rice was delicate and flavorful. The pita bread I think is fresh made- it was absolutely delicious.

When riding the Hatfield McCoy Trails, we found ourselves in the very tiny town of Kimball WV, and…read morewe were curious to see what there was to eat or drink in this town. Driving through Kimball feels like traveling back in time, long before technology and division took over this country. Unfortunately the town was left heavily damaged after two major floods a couple decades ago and a small community is all that's left. Imagine my surprise finding a Greek restaurant in that environment. When you walk inside, it hardly looks like a restaurant, but you are immediately greeted by some of the nicest people you will ever meet. The owner has been in this town and in this building her whole life and her parents were as well. There is so much history in these walls and she loves to talk about it. I could spend an afternoon just hearing about the life of this small town and how they are fighting for its recovery. As for the food, in a word: unremarkable. It was tasty and prepared well, but nothing you'll remember the day after. Prices seemed high but I imagine the overhead in this small of a town makes that unavoidable. My 5 stars are really for the people. I'd give the food/ambiance 3/5, but the people really make it a diamond in the rough. It's the only option in town anyways, but even if there were others I'd still say stop here to talk for a while!

I didn't end up drinking the Turkish coffee because I really didn't like the smell of it I just dumped it. The hummus was extremely potent but it was very very good. Definitely clears out the sinuses. The baklava was not super sweet like a typical baklava that's drowning in honey. This was very light. The beef Shawarma was tasty. But I would definitely order a side of tzatziki sauce.

We walked in and ordered food to go. The place was nicer…read morethan expected inside. Good selection of food but this place is more of an Italian restaurant in disguise than it is a Greek restaurant. Alot of pizza and pasta on the menu. There were a handful of Greek items, my wife got falafel and it was really dry, I got the gyro plate and it wasn't bad. We were wanting more traditional sides like humus, a Greek salad, and rice, which is usually comes with these types of plates, but their sides offerings were pasta salad, broccoli, and a few other things that don't really fit the bill. We asked if we could make substitutions so that we could have it how we wanted and they nicely obliged but they kept leaving things off, or gave us the wrong thing and we had to go back inside two different times. Glad we didn't just drive away before checking our order. The food was decent enough, may go back to try a few other things. Just wish it was more of what Greek/Mediterranean restaurants are in other areas.

This place needs to do better. I searched what places in East Tennessee sell grilled octopus and…read morethis place pops up. So of course I naturally look at reviews and pictures and people posted pictures with two or three good size pieces of octopus. I figure perfect, it looks delicious I'm gonna order. So I ordered the grilled octopus and also the tzatziki. My total was about $35. I get to my car and I look in the bag and instantly think "WTF are you kidding me?" What I got was a complete and utter joke. I had asked for veggies instead of the potatoes and I get what is shown in the picture a couple teeny tiny carrots and radishes and I'm kind of laughing as I eat them because I'm thinking damn... Each of these cost me a dollar so I better actually eat them. I look at how tiny my portion of food is and I think wow I wonder if I would've actually sat in the restaurant if it would've looked anything like the picture or if I would've got a decent size instead of this teeny tiny little container. The octopus was overcooked, it was tough and hard to chew. All they did was put it on the grill it had the char flavor but that was it no other flavor. Definitely would not recommend this place.
