Had gyro pita and didn't get fries. Ordered baklava and was a broken up little pastry piece. Also had the 21 shrimp and fries- popcorn shrimp and fries were soggy and no salt. Had Grubhub deliver and I know it wasn't their mistake. Not returning read more

Grecian Cafe - Greek Near Me - Spring Valley, California

I LOVE THIS place. The food is so fresh and tasty the greek chicken salad is my absolute favorite.

Since moving to the area this has been our go to when craving greek food. We always order for pick up. read more

Only place I go to get a Greek chicken salad! The chicken is seasoned very simple but so delicious. Staff are always friendly and polite.

My new go to when looking for gyro sandwich. Quality and the service is amazing. Thank you

Best gyro salad I've ever had. The dressing is to die for. Ambience is usually pretty ok, so is service, but the food overshadows it all.

Ordered for 5 the other night. The order consisted of half chicken dinners and salads with chicken. The chicken on each of the meals was dry.....VERY DRY. There's nothing worse than old, dry chicken that's been sitting around the restaurant for several hours. We ended up giving it to the dog. This is the second time in a row that we disliked the food from the Grecian Cafe. We gave them the benefit of the doubt the first time we got lousy food, but after the second time getting dry, tasteless food, we've decided that we'll find someplace else to eat. No thanks.....save your money. read more

My wife & I just discovered this Greek cafe. We ordered the hummus pita bread appetizer, grilled salmon, spanakopita, beef souvlaki on pita bread sandwich & lastly the baklava for dessert. Everything was delicious, took us back to our trip to Santorini! The serving sizes were huge and the friendly service was so truly appreciated. We were just going to take out & eat at home, but then decided to eat outside using the stone patio tables. Unexpectedly they brought out water to us which was such a kind gesture. We look forward to another visit to this friendly, hospitable "hole in the wall" cafe located in Spring Valley! read more

This Grecian Cafe puts many restaurants to shame. They cook the food fresh with quality ingredients. My favorite items are the half Greek Chicken and it comes with a small Greek Salad. However their Greek Chicken Salad is a generous portion of salad and lots of sautéed chicken. Down right the best salad I have tasted. The employees are professional and prompt. Overall a great place and price for an incredible meal. read more

Consistently great tasting & quality food. The family who runs Grecian Cafe are always kind and accommodating. If they are busy they are up front about realistic wait times. Our favorite order is the Gyro Sandwich with fries (the fries are bomb). We love the gyro & chicken souvlaki plates, the onion rings are on point and their hummus with pita is good. This is a month go-to for our family. Favorite place to eat on this side of town. read more

I've been coming here since I first moved to California, over 20 years ago. I left California 3 years ago but I still crave this restaurant's food and haven't found a Greek restaurant as good as they are. I recently visited my home town for a few days and I couldn't leave without stopping by here again. I ordered the gyro plate with rice and it comes with a Greek salad. The food was just as good as it was before I left!! I sent a picture of the food to my mom, who also loves this restaurant, and said she missed the food so much. I'm telling you, I've lived all over the United States and I have yet to find a restaurant that has better food than here. read more

My family and I really like this place. The restaurant owners are amazing and the customer service is great. You are always greeted with such happiness and respect. The food is very good. The 1/2 chicken dinner is so good and you get a LOT of food. The fire feta is a must try. So so good. My family and I will continue to come to this place. So so good. This place is a must. read more

Amazing Greek food. The Chicken salad for the win! Its all yummy the soup is also one of my faves!

Another place Yelp inspired me to go back to so I could write a review--my gain! It had been a hot day and I was in a salad mood. I hardly ever order salads so it had better be good and preferably Seafood or Greek. We both got the Greek salad with grilled chicken(same as the souvlaki the lady said) with fried Zucchini as a side and I decided to order one kouripiethes cookie and one Baklava to try. Both ahead of us and behind us in line were firemen from the area which I figured bode well. We had been here several times before and knew it was good already but I now look at places with a fresh perspective through my Yelp eyes. The Fried Zucchini were small and not a large portion for $3.50 but piping hot and juicy with a nice crunchy breading and ranch on the side. The salads were perfect, lots of crisp lettuce in a wonderful Greek dressing, feta sprinkled throughout instead of just a tiny chunk on the side, a couple of olives to garnish, tomato, cucumber, purple onion, and a LOT of delicious warm grilled chicken on top It came with warm grilled pita bread and tsatsiki sauce. I ate about 2/3 of mine and quit but the rest didn't make it till the next day. The cookie was very good (but I like mine better--recipe from the Greek neighbors of my childhood). The Baklava was one of the best I'd had from a restaurant or store--but not quite as good as what you buy at the Greek festival in June. That's my standard. Most Greek pastries from cafes deli's and groceries are substandard and don't taste fresh so this was better than most. I would order it again certainly. The ladies who run it are old school Greek cooks and do it right! Very cheerful and attentive also. Bravo! I forgot to check when they open but she said they close at 9pm. read more

I love their Greek chicken salad!! I grew up in the area, and I have coming to this place since I was in middle school or before. I don't live in the area anymore, and its been awhile. I'm glad I came back :) The chicken salad is definitely my favorite entrée here, I'll include a picture, but other entrées are good as well. The place is small, not much of a ambiance but nice like a little diner. If your in the area its worth checking out! Happy eating :) read more

Grecian Cafe - Chicken salad and pita bread it comes with :) love it! Big portions btw... - Greek Near Me - Spring Valley, California

I had a pretty good grilled chicken salad with a side of sliced pita bread for $8.99. This place has been around for a while now, and I use to eat here in the past before I was a Yelper. I've heard it has declined over the years with the quality of food and service. So, I came here to see and experience it for my self. The chicken on the salad tasted good and remained moist. It cold of used more color in the way of searing and a bit of more Greek seasoning. The salad was rather large, (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/VLqnAEaZkkaLrVzbnk6cEQ?select=Bb1qUhfCjaL_LMECfAmeUA#LaGYvYUFmYauxpDzjx6EpA) but as I dug in and got past some of he chicken, I realized that the chicken was sitting of pile of romaine lettuce. There was a lot of it but at least it was fresh. The tomatoes and cucumbers were good and so was the Greek dressing. They were, however a little heavy handed on the dressing because when I finished my salad, there was a pool on my plate. The pita slices with the yogurt sauce was very good. (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/VLqnAEaZkkaLrVzbnk6cEQ?select=Bb1qUhfCjaL_LMECfAmeUA#RxBhiPLmAh186RBFaL5Iow) It came with the salad with no extra charge. The service was okay. The ladies that work here are not much for conversation, but that might be a cultural thing. I noticed they were speaking Chaldean, not Greek. To be honest, the food was good, but not as good as I remember. My immediate impression is that attention to detail has diminished over the years. read more

See all

Food was great! SO good. Great portion sizes too! Very quaint cafe and very warming stuff. Very authentic vibes and taste. Definitely recommend. read more

Grecian Cafe - Small Gyro Salad, meat and cheese egg rolls - Greek Near Me - Spring Valley, California

I've been going here for years. Best things I've ordered here are the lamb shanks and gyros. Before, I really had bad experience with them because I called ahead maybe 2-3 times, and I still had to wait for my food. One time, years ago, I waited for an hour. I saw people who ordered later get their food earlier than me. When I demanded for my food or refund, the ladies there started arguing in front of me. Anyway, they got better now. There's a younger lady taking in phone orders. And we get our food on time now. Good job! read more

I have driven past this place a hundred times over the past 5 years but never stopped in until today. Let me just say I'm in love...*sings* L is for the way you look at me, O is..okay, okay..I ordered the chicken salad & it is delicious! The dressing is nice and light, everything tastes fresh and there you have it, the perfect salad! The only thing missing was avocado, but I threw that on once I got home and yup...I'm a fan! read more
