A friend and I started with enjoying a friendly get together at this restaurant, but were entirely insulted by the staff and owner, and after having only two glasses of wine, we were told to leave, but only if an Uber would be called. My friend had to take us out of the restaurant in order to leave, and that was only after the owner was insistent about who was driving... it was utterly ridiculous!! The entire experience was completely disrespectful, was entirely invasive into our get together, and he had no right to invade our personal space during our dinner. No one was inebriated and no one was being disrespectful. I will NEVER go to this establishment again, and I don't recommend anyone go there, EVER!! read more

What a great place and a terrific bargain. The dinner is more than enough for two people with soup and salad and entree and sides. The lemon egg soup was some of the best I've had and the gyro was tender and flavorful. Very friendly staff. read more

I was excited to try this place based on the reviews. I travel for business and look for different restaurants to try. the food was ok, gyro meet had a garlic sauce that was weird. Seems traditional so maybe just not my taste but I did like are 3 things. 1. I came in and order to go and the nice gentleman said it will be a while and offered me a drink, gave me half a glass of sangria to try. It was ok, I assumed it would be in the house since the glass was half (bad assumption). 2. It took over 30 minutes for my salad to be ready. 3 I was charged $10 for the sangria and I agreed to pay but since it was over the allowance for my work dinner (with the drink) I paid with 2 credit cards and left the tip on my personal card (20% of the total bill). They forged additional tip on my work card and that is not right. Ambiance was very family oriented, you can tell is mostly regulars, dark place and nice service. I will not visit nor recommend this business due to the experience of being over charged and persuaded to spend more while I wait. read more

Greektown - Gyro salad cost me $40 - Greek Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This is the most amazing restaurant! Tonight was our first time and it will definitely be a regular spot. Family-owned and run (the owner and his sons serving and chatting up everyone). We felt so welcomed, the food was absolutely delicious, the ambiance is cozy and family-friendly. It's like a big hug. read more

Decided to give this place a try as I've been on the hunt for some quality Greek food. All in all, I was very impressed. The ambiance here is romantic and intimate with low candle lit lighting . Perfect spot for a date night. The service we got here was also great. The owner stopped by our table several times to make recommendations. He's very personable and pleasant. Everything we ordered here was excellent and delicious. We started off with an order of the Spanikopita as an appetizer. The portions were very generous, and I highly recommended them. Next we got the main course. I got the gyro plate and my partner got the pastitsio . Again, very generous portions (the gyro is huge) and delicious. The main courses came with a soup and Greek salad. I don't know how we had the room for it but we lastly had the baklava cheesecake dessert. DO NOT LEAVE WITHOUT TRYING THEIR DESSERT. We devoured it in less than a minute. So good! All in all, this is probably the best Greek restaurant I've been to in Phoenix. Will definitely come back again! read more

Ok so it's been rumored that they have the best Greek food! Recommended by a dear friend! Let me tell you!!!! This food was BONKERS!!! From the "world famous calamari", to the "special" gyro dinner, to the "only dessert we have". I have found a new favorite hangout! And the plate breaking and the "OPAS"! And we cannot forget George and his kids! Will DEFINITELY be back! read more

I was so impressed with Greektown and couldn't believe I hadn't been before. The service was fantastic. We over ordered (of course). We started with their fried cheese in phyllo... this was so good... like amazing. I had the lamb chops, which is a huge portion and tasty. They come with a great salad, soup, veggies, potatoes, bread (omg so much food). The husband had a tasty (and affordable) chicken pita. We also got dessert because we're sick humans... we had to try their dessert sampler and it was also great. This is a wonderful place for a date night, check them out! read more

NEW FAVORITE RESTAURANT!!!! amazing food, beautiful atmosphere, quality service, and the most community filled restaurant ever!!

We had a fabulous dinner here with another couple who goes often. They have raved about it and rightfully so, the vibe and food made for a great date night out! It's family-owned and run and it shows. They have so much passion and enthusiasm for their restaurant. We started with the Saganaki and Calamari (both YUM) - for meals we got 1/2 and 1/2 plates which is a way of trying 2 similar dishes (almost like a sampler dish but for entrees). The ladies both got 1/2 Shrimp George and 1/2 Shrimp Grigori and the guys both got 1/2 Capama and 1/2 Pastitsio. Everything was delicious and service was top-notch - we will definitely be returning! read more

I have been going to Greektown for the last 10 years and it never misses the mark. George prepares everything from his YiaYia's recipes and is very proud to tell you that these recipes are the best, (They are) The Moussaka and Pastitsio are amazing and the vegetables are prepared with lemon and cooked to perfection. The Dolmades and Spanakopita are made fresh every day and are too die for- with freshly made Avgolemono soup. Don't be fooled by the humbleness of the building. Amazing food awaits! We drive there from Carefree and it is worth the trip every time. Go and try this authentic food, you won't be disappointed. read more

This is the one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. The entire family works here and you can tell they care about every aspect of dining. We had every family event there since I was a baby. Check it out! Ask for George, and tell him the Balsamo's sent you. read more

Terrific !!! When we're back in Phoenix we will definitely stop by. Calamari with their special sauce - amazing.

We came to celebrate my mom's birthday and celebrate we did. George and his son's create a fun environment to share. George's son is now in charge of the kitchen. Some of the dishes remain traditional, but he's put an updated twist on others. All are exceptionally tasty. read more

We had a Greek themed birthday party & the food we ordered was AMAZING! Fresh, authentic & delicious! Definitely would recommend!

What a fun evening!! George and his sons made our dining experience wonderful! The Greek wines were delicious and new to me. Dinner recommendations were spot on and truly with pure Greek dishes. Do not miss this experience!! read more

It's hard to find words to properly praise Greektown. It's not just the best food, it's the best atmosphere while you eat. You have to start with the calamari. That is the best squid I've ever had and the lemon sauce they make could turn an old shoe into a delicacy. My second favorite is the capama lamb. The flavor will blow you away and even if you think you don't like lamb, the capama is sure to change your mind. You really can't go wrong with anything from Greektown and the appetizer chicken soup with lemon will start your meal with a simple but extravagant delight. The family that owns this restaurant are all in a class of their own and sure to keep you entertained. Just go eat there and see for yourself. read more

Excellent food and service. Family run with mom, dad, and two sons almost always there. Usually a lot of fun. read more

Came by on Friday 8/12. Plenty of empty tables. Man comes from behind bar says it will be 20-30 minutes. Told us to have a seat in stools up front. No explanation- hey I'm short staffed. If he had politely asked for patience, we would've stayed. Needless to say, we left and won't bother to be back. read more

Great family running a wonderful restaurant with great food and atmosphere. Can't wait to introduce more friends to Greektown Restaurant.

I love this place!!! I'm from a very Greek area in Chicago and this is the best I have found in Phoenix that even compares. The owner is awesome and his sons that work there are the best. For me it's a taste of home. The whole experience. read more

I could only give this place two stars and that is for the food which was mostly tasty. Portions were on the small side and frankly overpriced. If it were how we're treated by the owner, I would give it zero stars. This man was incredibly loud and obnoxious in ways you can't imagine. He was rude, sexually inappropriate and made snarky comments to us and other tables. Read the reviews on him and you'll see it's not just us. Never again. read more

Rude and unwelcoming. Didn't even place order turned around and walked out. Would not recommend solely on that experience.

It's so nice to come to a family owned restaurant that is not only delicious but very considerate of gluten intolerance and allergies! I really appreciated their knowledge and ability to make some dishes completely gluten free. We came in from Philadelphia and they made us feel right at home! The chicken kabobs with veggies were delicious and the chocolate mousse was superb! All gluten free read more

I have not ever been treated so poorly by a restaurant owner. If I could I would give a zero minus zero stars. I ordered a Mediterranean salad and asked for extra feta because there was a tiny sprinkling on the salad. He took the check back and charged $4.00 for a tiny container of feta. I asked about and he said " it's a beautiful salad, you don't want it fine and proceeded to take it back. I was starving and said no that's fine I just don't get it what so pricey for a wee bit of feta. He replied "Don't blame me blame Joe Biden". I was appalled that politics came into my food purchase, no matter what my beliefs are it's not the time or place. I am so sad and very Hangry!!! Not cool, not nice at all, mean spirited man, yikes!!! read more

If you want some great Greek food this is the place to go I quite a few things on the menu and everything is great I think they have the best calamari in town are crispy and love the lemon sauce that they put on them the spawnakopeekess I'm good nice and Flaky and a two different sauces they put with it or both are great their cheesecake they make is as wonderful the owner is always there and he's hilarious seems like he remembers a lot of his customers which is a great thing definitely I'm going to go back everyone should try it you won't be disappointed read more

I found this restaurant on a whim one day on Yelp years ago and my friend and I went to check it out and the food and the people were quite amazing. I would go back to Greektown every so often when the craving for a good meal hit me and what I mean by that was when I lived in Detroit, Michigan on every Friday all of girls who worked in offices nearby would venture over to one of many Greek restaurants and indulge in great food and Ouzo. Well, I then moved to the desert some 40yrs ago and knew that one day I would find this restaurant called Greektown. After many trips to this place on 7th Street I realized I was going down memory lane in my head. I had turned 70 this year and I wanted to share my birthday with friends & family here at the Greektown restaurant. I called George and asked if I could bring 11 people to his restaurant to help celebrate my birthday and he said yes. George welcomed us with open arms and a genuine care, setting the tone for a unforgettable evening. While we waited for our tables George made us feel right at home offering warm hospitality that stood out immediately and a tasty sangria I might add. After dinner I asked each of my guest the same question how was your meal? And each one smiled and said you did it again another fine meal with amazing food & impeccable service. Sas efcharisto all for a beautiful and memorable birthday. Jodi O PS if yelp had 6 stars it would be - AMAZING. read more

Came here last night with my boyfriend. Best experience ever. The owner was amazing and made us feel like family. The food was so delicious. The salmon was huge and the pasta was perfect. We got the cheesecake with raspberry sauce and baklava for dessert. Definitely would recommend. read more

It's hard to beat the experience I had at greektown. I felt welcomed like family! The owner and his family were smiling, laughing, and just chatting everyone up! The ambiance felt like Greek tradition, plates were getting smashed and everyone was screaming opa! The food was AMAZING and I had enough to take home for left overs! The drinks were made with ouzo and had a fun twist! The feta came in bricks and large quantities! You could not ask for a better restaurant and hospitality! And while you're there do NOT miss out on the cheesecake baklava! You HAVE to try this place out, it's honestly in the top 10 best locations in the valley for me! Check out their Facebook page too for secret menu items and fun videos of the owner interviewing customers! read more

We had such a fun dinner here! It was an amazing, authentic, family-owned place that makes you feel like part of the family as soon as you walk through the door. From the line dancing around the dining room to the incredible food and Greek wine, we had the best experience. It really felt like we were transported to Greece for the evening. Can't wait to come back! read more

Greektown - Mousaka- an eggplant & potato version of the Greek lasagna. SO delicious! - Greek Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This is some of the best Greek food you'll have in the Phoenix area. Found this place by accident and wasn't sure it was open by how it looked on the outside. Don't let that deter you, the food and staff are amazing. This is 3rd generation restaurant. We will be back. read more

We had a very enjoyable dinner for our first indoor dining experience in a year and a half. George and his family are welcoming and you are made to feel like part of the family instantly. The decor is exactly what I expected based on my experience with other greek restaurants and provides a very authentic ambiance. My recommendation is to request a booth as their chairs are not the most comfortable. We started with a greek wine and an order of Tiropites and Saganaki. That, combined with the basket of warm pita and garlic bread had me stuffed before my main course even arrived! Both starters were delicious and perfect as a meal by themselves. I ordered the souvlaki off of the special board and my dining companions ordered off the regular menu. All of the mains have super generous portions and come with avgolemono soup and a salad as well. After the soup I knew I really couldn't eat more so I pretty much had my main packed to go. The souvlaki order comes with 4 skewers, rice, veg and a potato! I have never been to a restaurant that gave more than 2 skewers so I was amazed by their portion. I did nibble a few pieces of chicken dipped in their homemade tzatziki before it was packed up and it was moist and delicious. i don't know how George managed to do it but he convinced the table to share a piece of baklava cheesecake. I thought that it would be a cheesecake that included the ingredients of baklava but it was just a piece of cheesecake with baklava on top. Based on the clean plate, I believe my dining companions enjoyed it. The meal concluded with a shot of ouzo and a rollicking "Opa". I won't lie, it was not the best greek food I have ever had (I have eaten a LOT of greek food around the world) but that doesn't mean that Greek Town's wasn't very good and delicious, because it was. That, combined with the warm hospitable atmosphere makes it a "must visit" if you want greek food in Phoenix. P.S. For those like me that use restroom cleanliness as an indicator of overall restaurant cleanliness - Greek Town's restrooms were pristine! read more

Came here last night and really enjoyed my meal here. The owner is there co.es by and says hi, very sweet guy. I ate here with my mom and we shared an order of dolmadas, they are very large, come as order of 3. As for entrees we order pretty much the same thing Greek lasagna but I got the mousaka which is made with eggplant instead of noodles and my mom got the Greek lasagna. Both were good, theu come with a side salad and cup of soup. Also there was veggies on the side which was an added bonus cause I didn't know that was part of the entree. Definitely will be back to try other menu items. Service was great, very attentive. read more

Wanna feel at home? This is the spot. Truly a mom and pop restaurant as it's a family that runs it. Kitchen and front of house. The food is truly amazing. There wasn't one thing I tried that I didn't like. The ambiance is also special. read more

The family here makes you feel like you're a guest in their home when you come to eat. George runs the front of the house with his two sons and keeps everyone happy and laughing while Tasoula cooks up the most amazing Greek dishes I've had since I was on vacation over there! You can't go won't with their pasta dishes either. Incredible sauces and those dolmades are one of a kind. You will not be disappointed. read more

Everything was perfect the flavors the staff and atmosphere 5 stars! We went with a friend who grew up in a Greek neighborhood and he said everything was authentic! read more

The last great American Greek restaurant! Family owned and as authentic as it gets. You may think "why would I get Greek in Phoenix", but you won't question it after this meal. Service a tad slow, but that's the price of the experience. read more

Great Greek food. Family owned with mom/grandma dad and sons recommending dishes, cooking and serving the meal. They can serve a family style meal with entrees that is great for tasting multiple dishes. Loved the experience. read more

My father and I came to Phoenix to watch my daughter play volleyball. Found Greektown via Yelp and glad we did. First of all the George the owner is the ultimate host. We were greeted with a warm hello and given a few suggestions for lunch The sautéed calamari in lemon sauce was to die for. The calamari were very tender and the lemon sauce had just enough garlic read more

Greek town was great! We entered the restaurant and the owner greeted us and had us sit at the bar until our table was ready. We ordered a specialty drink with ouzo , the drink was excellent. We were then seated in a booth with a nice white tablecloth. We ordered calamari appetizer , which was fabulous. I asked our server, Dimitri, if I could order two items , half of each as my entree and he quickly said yes. The food was the best Greek food we have had in a long time We can't wait to go back! read more

This place has amazing and authentic Greek food. The environment is very cozy and the customer service is even better. I believe it is a small-family business with the owner being the dad, the cook is the wife, and their 2 sons are the servers. We ordered the flaming cheese (don't know the Greek word), Calamari, and the Original Gyro. My partner also had a few beers. It was a little bit on the pricier side but it's definitely worth the price! Will come again! read more
