    After an average lunch at the Food court of Menlo Park Mall we were looking for a nice coffee place that offered a sit down and good coffee. WE bypassed Starbucks and found this location adjacent. Very polite owner and great coffee sitting on comfortable chairs. Highly recommend as a nice independent location serving excellent coffees and other drinks.

    We stopped by The Greek on Main for lunch and immediately found it to be a warm and inviting spot…read more *AMBIANCE* Located on main st in Metuchen, street parking can be a bit tricky. We walked in for lunch and were immediately seated. Though they also take reservations on Resy. We came dressed casually though the vibe seemed a bit dressier with the dimly lit interior. The restaurant has a clean, modern feel while still maintaining the charm of a neighborhood eatery. *FOOD* The menu offers a great variety of Greek-inspired dishes made with fresh ingredients and bold flavors. I ordered the lobster gyro, which was absolutely delicious. The lobster was flavorful and the combination of ingredients came together nicely in the pita. The dish also comes with a side of fries. *SERVICE* The service was friendly and attentive throughout our lunch. Our waitress was welcoming and checked in periodically to make sure everything was going well. Overall, great experience all around and it's the type of place you'd want as a regular neighborhood favorite. I'd definitely return and look forward to trying more of the menu!

Lots of pita bread that came that was warm. There were green olives too. Waitress was so attentive and friendly. Entrees: I had the fish of the day imported from Greece. It was grilled and butterflied! It was so good and skin was crispy the way I like it. No bones! And rice pilaf which was really good too. Light and flavorful. Friend had the lamb platter with rice pilaf. Looked really good. We thoroughly enjoyed our food. It was in good portions and worth the money. Dessert we had the grilled cheese with honey.. I think called halloumi.. and baklava. Also both freshly made. Good way to end the night. The cheese was salty and sweet with that touch of honey and the baklava was just sweetened just right. Not overly sweet. There was a private party in the back and was great to see that they can accommodate an intimate dinner for a good number of folks. I'd say around like 12-20 ppl? All in all I'd go back! :) Oh yea parking lot is very small but you can park on the street.

When you walk in, you definitely know it's a Greek restaurant - super cute! Staff were pretty nice and attentive! For an app - we got octopus and the dip plater, this consisted of 5/6 dips served with pita and cucumbers. The dips were ok. Octopus a bit chewy, but had flavor. Entree - a while fish which was deboned and a gyro platter. Both had rice on the side. (sides can be chosen). My friend said her fish was good, she was very hPly it was de-boned. My gyro platter was ok as well. Nothing fancy. I did wish it came with more salad. Dessert - we got some halumi cheese with honey and baklava. Bother we're mediocre. The baklava had a bitter after note that I was fond of. Place was ok. A nice neighborhood hangout. Again, nothing fancy.

Probably the smallest gyro I've ever had but still was packed with flavor. Pretty good experience and would return and suggest this spot to others. Really cute ambiance inside.

You are able to place your orders on a kiosk but there was a server behind them that provided us with great suggestions on what was good on the menu. I ordered the Build Your Own Pita Wrap with Souvlaki Chicken, Tzatziki, Cucumbers, olives and Feta with a side of Greek Fries. This meal was by far one of my favorites this year. The Pita Wrap was so fresh and delicious. For my dressing I chose the Lemon-Dill Vinaigrette and was blown away. The vinaigrette paired so well with the Pita bread that I could've just eaten the pita and the dressing together. I think it was the olive oil in the vinaigrette *chefs kiss*. Next up, the Greek Fries !!!!! So good. Seasoned to perfection with crumble cheese on top and paired with the Granch, made for the perfect combo. My friend tried the Greek Chopped Cheese but wanted to sub out the Beef and Lamb for chicken and was able to with no problem. He absolutely loved it. I tried his as well and it was honestly better than the chopped cheese's that I've had in the city. The Greek Chicken Chopped Cheese definitely needs to be a new menu item, shoutout to Tahj lol. If you're looking for lunch or dinner in NB you definitely have to stop by this place. It was delicious. Not to mention the owner was so warm and welcoming!!

    Kyma is definitely a must-visit in downtown Somerville! The first time I visited about a year ago,…read morewe sat inside and had a wonderful experience. Everything was delicious, especially the Greek Fries and the fondue. On my most recent visit (July 2026), we called ahead to see if we could sit on the patio with our dog, and the answer was yes! Their outdoor seating is dog-friendly. It was a beautiful summer Monday evening, just two of us and my pup. The staff couldn't have been more welcoming. They gave my dog so much attention, brought him a water bowl, and even let us order a side of steak for him, which he absolutely loved. To start, we shared the beet salad and the grilled halloumi. Both were outstanding, but the halloumi was especially memorable. For our entrées, we each ordered the steak souvlaki. The steaks were cooked perfectly and the portions were incredibly generous, so we both had plenty left over to take home. As someone who eats gluten-free, I also really appreciated how many gluten-free options were available and how accommodating the staff was. The service truly stood out. Everyone was warm, attentive, and went above and beyond to make our visit special. The patio is a wonderful place to dine on a warm evening, but the interior is absolutely beautiful as well--you really can't go wrong either way! Whether you're looking for incredible Greek food, exceptional service, or a dog-friendly patio, Kyma delivers. I can't wait to come back!

I normally get their gyro street food platter which is also good but I wanted to try something different. Another thing I like about Kyma is that the portion size is fair and you will leave feeling satisfied.
