I came here for my moms birthday this place was very family oriented and the ambiance was beautiful. I love the authenticity. The food was delicious we got a bit of everything. The customer service was excellent the sweetest servers make all the difference. They have so many options to choose from and they also serve wine and beer!! From Greek. Restaurant is cozy it was able to hold out party of 9 but definitely call ahead to be accommodated with seating they were able to squeeze us in last minute. Fantastic spot for Greek food. The spreads with pita is a great starter. The gyro and the tilapia are delicious and cooked to perfection. The service is very nice and attentive. The Greek Coffee was great like an espresso. Love this Restaurant,such a beautiful decoration!and the food were great portion and reasonable !fast service,fresh,highly recommend it. Check out dessert very yummy would definitely visit again

Salad

Place is located in a nice area of the Bronx but there is construction outside of establishment which conficts a bit with the traffic to restaurants. Restaurant is a bit small with only about 6 tables. So I took off one star for the Ambiance of the place. The service was OK, not too bad. The server was working alone serving but definitely tried to be attentive. The food was absolutely awesome. Great salad and amazing flavors in the entrees. Definitely will return for another lunch.

I was in the neighborhood yesterday and decided to try this place. Got the Greek Express Grill and Spanakopita. The Greek Express Grill was REALLY good! The chicken had good smoky char grilled flavor but was still tender. The Gyro Meat tasted very fresh and good quality. The spanakopita was also really good as well, a good mix of Feta and Spinach. Neither one overpowering. The staff was REALLY nice and everything was VERY authentic. It can be a tad pricey, but the food's taste makes up for it.

This is one of my favorite neighborhood restaurant. It is BYOB! The liquor store is nearby. Their service is exceptional. Its family run. Every time i come here i try something different from their menu and i am never disappointed! I love their salad & the grilled octopus is a must try!

Can I just say that I'm so happy and full right now? I became anxious when hubbs called to say he was on his way home and would pick up some take away from our neighborhood Greek restaurant. I was nervous because I just don't like the service or the food from the restaurant closest to our home but I was prepared to order something from them because I know he had a rough day and I just wanted him to be able to get home as soon as possible and decompress from all the worries he experienced today. While looking for the menu on Yelp, I searched Greek...and low and behold, Greek Express came up on my search list and the rating looked promising. Even better, they're located near our home as well. I quickly called hubbs and gave him the address as well as my order. First off, let me say that they must prepare foods with lightening speed because hubby got home with record timing. The food was warm, fresh and tasted oh, so good. I think we've found a new spot for our Meditteranean fix and any place that has halloumi has my heart! The Grub Rundown: Gyro Platter - ample gyro meat, choice of rice or fries and PLENTY of warm pita. Hubbs ordered this and, of course, I had a couple of bites for prosperity *wink wink* Halloumi - four grilled pieces of halloumi cheese, served with greens and lemon wedges. I liked this a lot but I'm sure it tastes way better if eaten in the restaurant, straight from the kitchen. Hummus - the color threw me off but the flavor is completely on point. They gave us so much warm pita for everything. We really wanted for nothing. Octopus - I took a chance ordering the octopus for take out from a place I've never eaten but after all of the rave reviews, I had to try it out. I'm glad I did. It was tender, well-seasoned and cooked well. Kourambiedes (Butter Almond Cookies) - very tasty and I'm glad I compromised the calories to try this dessert. I've already confirmed with hubby that this is our new Greek spot, no pun intended (well, maybe a l'il :D).

Falafel
michele e.

Just had a yearning for a falafel sandwich and stopped here to pick one up . I have taken out from here in the past but not for quite awhile - I remembered a tasty falafel- not this time . Tahini sauce was flavorless lacked the sense of cucumbers or garlic . The falafels were like leaded hockey puck hard no flavor and difficult to eat - if not for the excellent french fries my meal would have been a complete dud . Please work on improving your falafels they used to be good - light crunchy tasty .

Potato appetizer so good

This place is off the Chart! The Quality of the food is insane! Food is Amazing! The owner John is Amazing! The ambience is Amazing! I have traveled the world and this is the BEST Greek food the quality of the food is so high everything from olives sauces everything is so fresh and good! Please if you've never eaten here please try you will Not be sorry!

Calamari order we received yesterday.

Extremely unpredictable. This was the size of the calamari portion we received yesterday. The previous week we received at least twice as much. When we called to ask why this happened the man was very flippant and said they had been serving this portion all day. I miss the lovely older gentleman there who used to treat everyone kindly. I wouldn't post this if we had gotten a better response when we called. We stopped ordering for a while because things were so unpredictable and I'm sad to see things aren't better.

I've been coming here since high school, and we are NOT going to discuss how many years ago that…read morewas as a tear slowly rolls down my cheek. The best part? One of the same guys is still working here after all these years and actually remembers me. I love that! Gyro King is a true Bronx staple. If you've never been, get up and go. It's conveniently located about a block from the 4 train at Fordham Road. Now, if you're driving, welcome to Fordham Road. Parking can be a mission. Somehow, I almost always manage to find a spot right outside. At this point, I'm convinced it's fate. Inside is pretty tight, but it's well lit and has a long counter where you place your order, grab your food, pay, and keep it moving. There are also a few tables and chairs outside if you want to sit and eat. The menu is HUGE. They have just about everything you could imagine. On this visit, I grabbed the Gyro Platter, Beef Shish Kebab, French fries, and a few slices of their Gyro Pizza. The Gyro Platter was exactly what I remembered. A huge portion loaded with seasoned lamb gyro meat, lettuce, onions, tzatziki sauce, and pita bread. Filling, flavorful, and a classic for a reason. The Beef Shish Kebab had a great smoky flavor, although this particular order was a little fattier and chewier than I would have preferred. The flavor was definitely still there, but the texture could have been better. Now let's talk about one of their newer creations, Gyro Pizza. After all these years, somebody decided gyro meat and pizza needed to meet, and whoever made that decision deserves some recognition. They take a cheese slice, pile seasoned shredded lamb gyro meat on top, and finish it with their creamy tzatziki sauce. It sounds simple, but it WORKS. Savory, cheesy, meaty, creamy, and ridiculously satisfying. I've ordered it three times now, and it has been delicious every single time. Definitely give this one a try. Will I be back? After coming here since high school, I think we already know the answer. Absolutely. And now they finally take Apple Pay, so I don't even have to remember to bring cash anymore. Welcome to the future, Gyro King!

Place is small but the pizzas good. I mean for $1.50 you can't really complain. The other food…read moreitems looked pretty good but I just came for a slice with my cousins

Balkans, the rugged Southeast region of Europe is beautiful. The food in this region is vast and…read moreamazing. Even Italian and Greek food in the Balkans is outstanding. Hence, by no means I want to reduce this rich cuisine to just grilled meats. But it needs to be said that this region takes grilling to the next level. The mixed grill platter at Cakor represents a typical Balkan Grill Platter. There are places where you can get Sweetbread, Rocky Mountain Oysters, & even Heart in the platter, but what you get at Cakor is sufficient and outstanding. I always like chasing it down with IVI's Peach Soda.

Deliciousness - 3.5/5 Happiness - 3/5…read more We went to the Bronx Little Italy before a Yankees game (plenty of parking, a good idea if you don't want to pay all the stadium prices). We were planning to go out for a traditional meal but were surprised to find an Albanian-Italian restaurant. Having never had Albanian food before, we stolled in. It's gorgeous, with traditional decorations and street signs in Albanian. It definitely leaves an impression visually. Unfortunately, I can't say that I enjoyed the cuisine much. Most of the food was prepared in a flavored oil that I didn't care for. I got the mixed grill, which was a combo of meats (liver, kidney, qofta (similar to a meatball), two types of sausage, and baby lamb). My favorite thing by far was the qofta, which was nicely spiced and packed a tangy, meaty punch. Although I typically like organs (particularly liver), I found the kidneys too tough to be palatable, and the liver just didn't have a lot of flavor. The sausages were fine (although I didn't care for the spice blend in one of them). And I didn't realize baby lamb is different than regular lamb (which I loooove). It was a bit stringier, and was drenched in the oil that I didn't like (my kids, however, devoured it). Speaking of, my kids stuck with pasta. My son devoured his fettucini alfredo. We all enjoyed the light and fresh Cakor House pasta, which came with fresh tomatoes and chicken. Ultimately, I think Albanian food may not be my style. Buy I enjoyed the adventure (and especially, the decor!).
