    Greek Chicken Salad

    I stay door dashing the Greek chicken salad to work at least once a week. It always hits the spot. It's yummy and nutritious. Some days it's extra good. Tried to pull up one time and I was super confused on whether it was open or not? But it keeps getting delivered so the door dash drivers find it.

    Beef and Chicken Kebab Combo

    Just had a great meal delivered via DoorDash. I ordered the kabob combo - beef and chicken. The beef was super tender. Generous portion. Loved the flavor of the tzatziki. Really enjoyed it. Definitely the best DoorDash I've had. Travelled well! Probably even more delicious in person. Will absolutely be ordering from them again.

    Had a craving for a gyro sandwich, and believe it or not, I was cruising down El Cajon Blvd., when I saw a sign that said Greek and American Food. No kidding, I was flying off the seats of my pants. when I made a quick right and stopped here. When all the the dust had settled, I ordered a the gyro combo with fries and a drink for $6.45 The gyro sandwich tasted great and as you can see it came well stacked with gyro meat. (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/elsas-kitchen-san-diego?select=R3EE-_E4vsOqRrNcD0B-qA#adF96uYVaJ40Efhmx7zFVQ) The sammi was simple and came with tomatoes and onions only. (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/elsas-kitchen-san-diego?select=R3EE-_E4vsOqRrNcD0B-qA#oP02xxvGT3GCiBy_MCmGcQ) I spread some of their yogurt dressing sammi which was descent, but a little bland. It needed some more aggressive seasoning and lemon juice. (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/elsas-kitchen-san-diego?select=R3EE-_E4vsOqRrNcD0B-qA#8E8I_QxGUeM_IEBqjz_dXg) Overall, it was a very good gyro sandwich. The fries that came with the combo were okay. They were typical previously frozen fries. They were well fried and decently seasoned. (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/elsas-kitchen-san-diego?select=R3EE-_E4vsOqRrNcD0B-qA#kki7j2Ra1ldsWWRiecLHBA) One thing that did disappoint me was the ice tea I ordered. First of all, I told the employee I wanted unsweetened iced tea. I told him twice to make sure, but to make a long story short, I was handed sweetened, perhaps, Brisk fountain drink iced that was unwelcoming to sweet for me. Not my cup of tea, so to speak, so I did not drink it and I yelped it! (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/elsas-kitchen-san-diego?select=R3EE-_E4vsOqRrNcD0B-qA#-EVaVZyK61In13TgRcRmYA) The service was okay. A little indifferent, but not unfriendly. The place is very simple and perhaps a borderline whole in the wall-ish place. That being said, they make a good gyro sandwich with a lot of good gyro meat.

    I've heard GREAT things about this place. I just picked my food and it smells on POINT!!!

    Elsa's kitchen is a nice little find! They have a very good Gyro sandwich and the frenchfries are super yummy and delicious. I could eat their frenchfries all day!!! The falafel and spanikopita ( I probably misspelled that ) are just ok. I've also tried the gyro salad which was pretty good. Overall really decent food and portions for the money. I wish they offered garlic sauce as an alternative to the tziki sauce thus the 4 out of 5 stars.

    Delicious food, I always get greek salad with gyro or chicken with extra feta. It's enough for two meals.

    Gross. This is what they consider a gyro plate.

    First Visit, Instant Fans!…read more We stopped in this afternoon with my wife and our four sons after a busy day out, looking for a quick meal--and The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill completely exceeded our expectations! The restaurant was spotlessly clean, and the service was impressively fast, which is no small feat with a hungry crew our size. But what really made our afternoon was Milab. She was incredibly nice and welcoming, and we couldn't help but notice that even when she wasn't processing customers, she was actively cleaning and keeping the place looking pristine. That kind of hustle and attention to detail really stands out. And the food? Absolutely delicious! Every single dish hit the mark. We came in as first-timers and left as definite regulars. Totally worth it, and we will absolutely be returning. If you're looking for great Mediterranean food with fast, friendly service in a clean environment, this is your spot! We ordered the Great Greek Gyro and it is a really good size. Our 3 and 5 yr old could share the next time. Our hungry 7 and 9 year old devoured them. Thanks, Ashley & Lindsey Head

In deciding where to go for my birthday celebration, I remembered George's and I wanted to come here because it's one of my favorite places to come for lunch. They have wonderful lunch specials that includea side of four pieces of pita bread a large Greek salad with fresh feta cheese and delicious dressing and olives and cucumbers and tomatoes, as well as their rice pilaf. Today I couldn't decide between the lamb euro and the moussaka so they had a special that included two main dishes sampler so that's what I ordered and I got two for one. I took enough home for a late dinner and I thoroughly enjoyed my lunch. Two of the ladies enjoyed the chicken kebab lunch with all the sides and my other friend chose her salmon salad because she's a fish eater. There's something for everyone here. They were kind enough to bring a birthday baklava for us all to share, and they sing happy birthday to me, and I blew out the candle. Georgia and her family were all there to celebrate with me and the service was excellent as usual. Even though it's on a busy street there's lots of green plants that shield you from even being aware that you are on the busy street. Please come here for a delicious Greek meal at very reasonable prices and good quantity. And you get to have a cooked meal from a family kitchen!

The salad was in the box with the other items and the lettuce and dressing were hot by the time I picked it up. Reminding myself with this review to not go back. I'm actually surprised they have such good reviews. I really wanted to like it because it seemed like it was family run, which is why I picked it. The woman over the phone was sweet and was going to give me an extra hummus instead of tiziki and another one for free (which I didn't ask for), but when I arrived there was some confusion and they were going to charge me for two kabob plates (even though they were clearly handing me one meal), then forgot they were going to give the hummus instead of tziki and so I paid extra for a hummus I didn't ask for. The price went from $32 to $24 to $19 for my $15 plate. (Hopefully that was a simple mistake and not a money grab).
