Food is OK,but the place is very dirty .Service is horrible ,horrible,horrible .Waiter is an old man very bad dress ,very slow server and dirty cothes. Prices are like in an good restaurant but its service with plastic cup and plastic plates is the worst service that you can imagine. Definitely I will never go back. read more

Very disorganized. They get your order wrong, promise to correct it and then fail at that too.

My husband and I fell in love with this place, and decided to move to Riverdale based on our first experience here. The Greek owner, Manos, is wonderful. He really puts himself into this retirement passion project. We're considering asking him to be our child's surrogate grandfather... mostly kidding ‍ The gyro plate, lemon chicken soup, and Greek salad are outstanding. You can tell it's quality, authentic Greek food. End your meal with some of the baklava and little cookies and some Greek coffee. read more

YUM! YUM! YUM! Love this place! My old boss was Greek so I ordered a few platters of their cookies/pastries for an office party and I scored brownie points. She was impressed and said they beat her place in Astoria! Their Taramasolata (sp?), OMG, absolutely delicious. And their Avgno Lemono soup is sinful and the best I've ever tasted. Loaded with fresh dill and served with warmed pita. I popped in there over in January when I had a horrible cold and laryngitis and ordered a bowl. The charming older Greek fellow (owner) gave me a container to take home for free and told me to get plenty of rest! Fresh meats, fresh veggies...the gyros, etc., are all delicious - as is the spanakopita (loaded w/fresh dill!!). Am really glad they expanded! Great food, decent prices....a hit for Riverdale! read more

We're monthly patrons to this excellent restaurant. We love the mousaka, grape leaves, grilled octopus, fried calamari, and lamb chops. A real neighborhood gem! Also, great take out. read more

Have you been in since the renovations? I feel like I just walked into what is supposed to be portrayed as Greece. Colorful, Open, Airy, and ample seating. WHAT A HUGE CHANGE! Luckily, not everything changed: the food is still as awesome as it was in the past. Their moussaka is delicious. Their chicken souvlaki platter comes with Greek salad. And the service, wow, its about as close to hospitality from someone's own home. Bravo, Greek Express. I enjoyed my meal and the new atmosphere! read more

Like the decor but wasn't thrilled with the food, got the gyro platter with rice and was just plain tasteless white rice,Greek rice should be spicey....gyro meat was ok at best and they don't serve beer....mythos Greek beer is perfect with real Greek food....try leftis gyro in tarrytowne if you want REAL Greek!! read more

There's a large disconnect between its popularity on Yelp and its popularity in reality. The primarily competition, Lefteris Gyro in Yonkers (and throughout Westchester) and Christos Gyro down the hill in Kingsbridge, outclasses Greek Express in quality of the food, portion size, speed of service, and, most glaringly, price. read more

So being Greek I feel like I always have the "bet you can't beat my grandma's" attitude when it comes to greek food. Greek express gave grandma a run for her money! Giant portions of perfectly seasoned meat. I also ordered the orzo which was amazing! It had bits of olives, spinach, sun dried tomato and feta! I left with a belly full of wonderful flavorful food! Would definitely go again! Now the true test will be taking my Grandma! read more

This place is awesome, their food is amazing! Their service was great and I will definitely go back. Our waiter was such a sweet heart Thank You Greek Express. read more

I absolutely love this little restaurant. I love the old Greek guys working the counter and taking your order. I always order the gyro which never disappoints. Meat is hot with lettuce, tomato, and onions cold, just like its supposed to be. The only negative for this place is they tend to get overwhelmed with phone orders. Sometimes I call ahead for take out and I get a busy tone. When was the last time you heard a busy tone? For Pete's sake guys join us in the 21st century and get a better phone system with several lines. read more

Yummy - what a fantastic gyro!! I would also recommend the lemon chicken egg soup. Rich and yummy and refreshingly spiced with fresh dill. Favorite new delivery spot -very fast. Finally, I don't have to go to Manhattan when I have a craving for Greek food. read more

Only tried them for take-out, but they were fast and efficient and the Gyro sandwich was fantastic. It was made with lamb, as it should be. It filled the whole car with a wonderful aroma that made everyone wish they were eating that Gyro. All the food coming out of the kitchen looked fresh and delicious. The ambiance was very nice and cozy. read more

This place deserves a much more creative and expressive name to fit their grub. "Greek Express" sounds like the sort of late night, beer-soaked, belly-buster I regularly encountered while living in the U.K. This place, however, is top notch. Orzo salad is amazing; theGreek salad is bar-none the best I've had; the staff is the real deal; they take the time to learn your name (even when ordering over the phone) and make a point of referring to "insert your name," frequently. This is a nice touch. Looks like they might be expanding their location to accomodate more seating, nice touch. read more

I've previously given this place 4 stars, but the last two orders I've had have made me re-think that. I hate to say this, but every time I order take-out from here and the father answers the phone, I say to myself "expect mediocre food". I feel as if the son makes much better food (my most memorable experiences have generally been when the son was running the show and making the food) and also makes it faster. Part of the issue could be that it takes so long for the father to get the food out that by the time it arrives it isn't as hot. For example, if french fries sit for too long, they become soggy and not nearly as enjoyable, as has been the case the last few times I've ordered. Additionally, I'm taking off one star because the African delivery guy (there are two of them, and of late I've gotten the African guy) can be rather rude. For some reason, it's always a big deal to provide me the itemized receipt. When I asked for it this time (it was clearly in view), he stated that he already gave me a receipt (the credit card receipt, which is not itemized), and then I insisted that I receive the itemized one, and he acted as if he didn't know what I was talking about, then finally relinquished and gave it to me, but I can tell he wasn't pleased, as if I was doing him a disservice. There has to be some reason why they don't like providing that (this has been a problem since I started ordering from this place years ago), and I don't like the attitude that I receive from him when I ask for it, nor his snotty disposition in general when dealing with him. It had been several months since the last time I ordered from here due to a horrendous experience, and after today's situation, it may be yet a while before I order from here. The food was just mediocre at best today (ordered a gyro deluxe sandwich with fries, a halloumi cheese side, and a zucchini croquette side). The halloumi cheese tasted too salty (in other words, saltier than usual) and the croquettes were just ok. I've noted in my previous review that the prices went up, as did the credit/debit card minimum (now $20.00). I now spend around or over $30.00 each time I order from here, and for that price, the food needs to be memorable, and of late it hasn't. My previous order was a disaster. I asked for two gyro deluxes (a gyro sandwich with fries) for me and a friend who was here at the time, and received the wrong thing. I knew something was wrong when the total was much higher than expected. I immediately checked the bag and informed them of the wrong order while the delivery guy was here (it was again the same African guy I mentioned above). The girl on the phone who botched the original order agreed to give us the right one, but then acted as if it was our fault for botching up the order when it was her who made the mistake. On top of that the delivery guy started to become irritated as he had to wait until they figured out how to correct the mess at the restaurant. Then they told us they wanted the food back, which I complied with. The delivery guy came back quickly, but it was certainly a hostile environment on both sides. They seemed to be irritated at us for their screw up, and we were just as annoyed for the error and long wait, as we were hungry. Given the two latest experiences, I'd say this is strike two before I can consider not ordering from this place at all, which is a shame because as a Riverdalian, I strive to support our local businesses here in Riverdale. read more

Is there even a lower rating? Another waste of precious space with another lousy restaurant in Riverdale. So bad one waits to see if maybe they got sick. And the waiter was horrible. It was hard not to ask if they had any idea how terrible it all is. I felt like apologizing to my stomach. I notice a lot of 4 & 5 star reviews - are you all members of the owner's family?! read more

Well worth the wait. Everyone I know loves this place and it's obvious why. Try anything on the menu, ANYTHING, but if you're not adventurous then a simple gyro and fries will make you a believer. read more

Okay just finished my Gyro sandwich for lunch and it was fabulous - possibly the best I ever had. Guess last one was a fluke.

Fast delivery The person that answered the phone was very knowledgeable with the menu and offered good alternative salads was green and crisp. not bad at all read more

Delicious food and very friendly staff. Their new renovations made the restaurant beautiful and like a little quaint Taverna in Greece.

I am back in California....enjoying the sunny weather but i am missing my Gyro's from Greek Express sooooooooo much the food is to die for!!! The only thing better than the food is the service!!! The owners are fantastic..thank goodness I fly back to NYC several times a year. If you have not tried this place out it is a MUST!!!!!! PRICES ARE REASONABLE AND FOOD IS FANTASTIC read more

FRESHLY Prepared! No pretentions Wonderful Greek Food in Da Bronx.

Great great great gyro , these little Gus have been in the neighborhood forever and their gyro , salads, specialties are fantastic, very tasty desserts, service is good read more

Cute and delicious spot. My husband and I had dinner here on Friday night. We got seated right away. The atmosphere is cute with feelings of what seems like authentic Greek food. We got the grilled octopus, stuffed portobello mushroom, grilled chicken, and lamb gyro. Everything was delicious. Especially their fries lol. The only negative thing we went through was that there was a long wait between our appetizer and entrees. But our waitress was kind enough to apologize for the wait once our food came out and so was the older gentleman who seemed liked the owner. My husband and I def want to go back to try their other foods. read more

5 stars goes to the extremely old Greek man who was our waiter, he was funny , gentle and helpful going for a vegetarian choice. The vegetarian platter is enough for two and its $15 bucks. No high chairs for my daughter but the place is so small you should leave the kids at home or go to salvatores across the street, where you will have to deal with an unattentive order taker. Yes , I'm still working on that, kind of service. read more

Not sure what happened... Loved this place for the last 3 years. All of a sudden, the prices increased, and in the last 3 deliveries we've had, the portions have decreased. I also wish they would expand their menu a bit but it never happens. Honestly, the price now for what you get is not worth it for me. Really a shame because as I said, we used to order here all the time... :( read more

Super friendly, super authentic food: delicious and affordable. I love this family owned place! read more

Maybe I don't know Greek food, but I liked Kefi, The Greek Kitchen and Uncle Nicks on the West Side. Greek Express is on par. Delicious Pastichio with nice chunky tomato sauce on side. Great find in the area and worth the drive. Lots of meter or free parking options in the area. read more

This place has become a regular. Love the food and the atmosphere, and great location. You will not be disappointed.

After reading the reviews on Yelp, couldn't get the falafel out of my mind. Went with my daughter, I had falafel, she had a gyro. Both were fresh, delicious. Store is tiny but comfortable. Prices are reasonable. I brought a piece of baklava home - small but VERY good and fresh. Good healthy lunch for 2 for $10! Friendly people. We will definitely be back. read more

Excellent ! with friendly staff and really great food. Meat fans go for bifteki and suvlaki. Excellent choices of salads. My favorite: Greek salad +chicken suvlaki. read more

Wish I could give it a 5 stars with an asterisk. Best food in Riverdale, but such a popular place, it's almost impossible to get food delivered on a Friday or Saturday night because their phone is always busy. read more

Bangin! Just moved to Riverdale recently and walked into this place for a dinner date. Absolutely awesome. Friendly and welcoming staff, great ambiance, and the food is incredible. Got the Gyro Platter & Tirokafteri. Sooo good. read more

Love love this place!!! The best greek food in the Bronx! The staff are wonderful. My favorite dish is the orzo salad and the chicken souvlaki is on point. read more

For what it is, a small, informal, Greek spot, this place is top notch. The food is fresh, beautifully presented, and as tasty as could be. The decor is charming and the guy who runs it a down to earth cultured gentleman. We make this place our #1 place to eat as we head in and out of the city. Easy on and off the Henry Hudson. Don't miss it. The giant white bean salad, grilled thinly sliced eggplant with hummus, and the calamari are terrific. read more

The first time I came was for my birthday. Although we came very late the people where still very friendly and did not hesitate to seat us. They serve very large portions and the prices are very affordable. I love it here read more

Always delish!!!! Great service! We usually get it delivered but its always nice to stop by:) love it! Yummo!

Great Greek food. Reminds me of the place I used to go to in college. Don't blink or you'll miss a great spot in a tiny restaurant in a tiny storefront in a tiny building. read more

Love that it is BYOB but I really rather take a trip to Astoria. Fine place for lunch take out - greek salad or souvlaki. Also like that they open up the patio doors during warm weather. read more

Such a friendly place with lovely dishes like moussaka and a really nice side salad with olives and feta. We enjoyed it so much and the owner who waited on us was happy to get us glasses for our byob wine bottle. Just really good Greek food in a great, relaxed atmosphere! read more
