GRK FRESH - Food - Greek Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I chose this place near the end of a very long, tiring day sightseeing at all the classic tourist spots. This spot is a short walk from the National Portrait Gallery and several hotels in downtown, making it very convenient for tourists. The space is clean and bright, and service is friendly and relatively quick. There's a wide variety of options and all are quite healthy! I definitely recommend this to other tourists looking for a casual spot for nutritious, tasty Greek food to recharge after sightseeing. read more

GRK FRESH - Greek Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I had my first GRK FRESH experience last week, and I can definitely say that I'm a fan! The place is clean, the girl and the manager that I interacted with behind the register were both super duper nice, and my food tasted good. I just got a Greek Salad and a side of seasoned fries, but both were very tasty. The greek salad doesn't come with any lettuce, just FYI, but had tons of flavor. And the seasoned fries were piping hot and really delicious. I love that they have different kinds of tzatziki here (I got an extra side of tzatziki to dip my fries in). I went with the original (garlicky goodness!) but I'm excited to come back and try the spicy one at another time. This location isn't too far from the Yelp DC office, so I'm sure I'll be back again before long! read more

GRK FRESH - Greek salad and seasoned fries - Greek Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

It was 2 pm and I was feeling HANGRY, thank goodness for GRK as they saved many people from incurring my wrath that afternoon. I've always been a fan of their original location in Farragut and this spot is no different. With a menu featuring freshly baked pitas, locally grown produce, grilled grass fed meat, and Tzatziki-palooza of flavors every meal feels healthy-ish. Focus on the ish part. Their french fries are SO good! They come in a paper bag, freshly cooked and extra crispy. They are basically Five Guys fries and I am HERE FOR IT. Friendly service and on hot days they have a Greek Yogurt Bar that is also wonderful. read more

Food was awful. Chicken souvlaki didnt look or taste like real meat, brussels sprouts were mushy and brown, the mini spinach pies had hardly any filling and even though I was the only person in line, when I paused to understand how their menu worked, the cashier kept sighing in frustration. Maybe she was having a rough day but she was super rude. I've been to a GRK in Jersey and it was delicious but I guess they're not all the same. read more

The Gyro was pretty tasty. The ice cream was a bit too yogurt tasting for me. Not a bad experience. read more

Food is fair at best, and service was quick but unfriendly. The honey brussels were definitely frozen before cooking. The chicken and pita wrap were dry. read more

GRK FRESH - Greek Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

So I really wanted to like this place. Since they opened I've been seeing folks walking around with the light blue carryout bags during lunch time. I finally decided to give them a try and I must say that I was pretty disappointed. The place is very clean and the service was great, but unfortunately for me, this meal did not satisfy my taste buds. It didn't have much flavor. I ordered a to go plate with chicken and kaftero (their "spicy" sauce but it was mild for me). To be honest, for $12, there are better options. I might come back to try their greek yogurt but that's it. read more

GRK FRESH - Chicken plate - not impressed. Won't be returning - Greek Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I had passed by this place a few times and decided to stop by after looking for a fast casual spot to eat. I was starvinggg so I got the chicken yeero platter with brown rice, pita, and salad and then a side order of spanakopita. Food came out shortly after and let me just say: the spanakopita was delicious! It really reminded me of the spanakopita I would eat in Greece for breakfast, which is super hard to find in the US. I like a good filling to filo dough ratio and this was ideal. That was definitely the highlight of my meal. The chicken was a little bland and chewy, next time I would get the pork or halloumi cheese option. The rice was dry yet oily? It was definitely missing something. The salad, pita, and tzatziki were your standard affair -- except I wish the salad removed the croutons and added tomatoes instead. Again, this is your standard, fast lunch spot so for what you get, it's pretty good. Next time I'll come back and try some different stuff (but keep the spanakopita). read more

How Do You Know When You've Found "The One"? Intro: I can't remember the last time I went to a new food spot without checking out the Yelp score first. However, when I laid eyes on GRK for the first time, there was a such an allure that nothing else mattered... which brings me to the ambiance. Ambiance: I'm not sure if it's that perfect shade of blue, the chic and elegant font, the impeccable lighting, or the perfectly placed designs sprinkled throughout, but something about this place is irresistibly compelling. I've never known a fast-casual restaurant (Thanks, whoever coined that term, so I can stop saying "Chipotle style") could be this way. You know... I had always thought love at first sight was it a myth, but I've lived and learned. Food: Looks can only get you so far, but fortunately, GRK's offerings are always fresh and well prepared. I've gotten the chicken plate with salad, pita bread, and giant beans for side. The tzatziki sauce is the unsung hero that holds everything together. It's so good that I have committed to learning how to spell tzatziki without using Google. Shredded is the only word I can think of to describe the way the chicken is prepared, but it's good. The salad is fresh. The pita bread is warm and well textured. The giant beans are great. Come on, where else are u going to get giant beans as I side? Customer Service: I've been twice and my order was taken right away and my food came in less than 2 minutes. Closing Remarks: Of course, we should never expect uber authentic cuisine from fast-casual restaurants. However, GRK offers some really distinct and refreshing flavors and options. Other reviewers don't seem to express the affinity that I have for this place, but that's because GRK and I were made for each other. In the iconic words of Jon B... "They don't know what bout this is" read more

Great choice for a quick; well thought out greek treat. Limited specialties means they're focused on giving you their best. My " YEERO" platter was fantastic through and through: Well seasoned crisp edged fries Lot's of flavorful beef/lamb slices right off one of the giant hunks rotating in full view . Three choices of Yogurt sauce I chose a nice fresh cucumber and romaine salad A whole pita quartered and stacked $13 w/tax! Really good karma too! Next Time chicken! read more

Completely underwhelmed by the food. I ordered a pita sandwich and it barely had anything in it and no flavor. It was just blah. I feel like this place needs to redo their menu and get professional help with it. Fast food ambiance. read more

Service was pretty good for 4:30/5 pm on a weekday, and I would hope so given that despite its location, it was pretty empty. Why the two stars? The food was not good. They ran out of their special (Grk Original Pita) or so we were told and were instead relegated to other things on the menu. We opted for the plate and were not impressed with what we got. I think the comment was they were out of the pork, which was their special, so we got lamb and beef, which I preferred. Unfortunately, the protein was not what I expected - instead of being shaved meat, the pieces were like shards of meat. Besides the texture and presentation, it just didn't taste good. The salad was not dressed. Sadly, the best things were the warm pita triangles and fries. read more

My official rating for is 4.5 stars. It's a very fast ordering system, like the Greek version of Chipotle, but the food is far better than you'd expect! The pita was warm, the meat was delicious, and the selection of sauces and sides is fun. For a quick, casual, and flavorful meal, stop by GRK FRESH. read more

Avoid at all cost. Service horrendous. Food horrendous. No one there actually wants to take your order. When you walk in they will roll their eyes and sigh outloud that you are there and they have to speak to someone. The salad was soggy, the meat dry and cold, and nothing was "fresh" as the name describes. DO NOT GO. read more

I never been to a Greek restaurant like this, the menus offer is small and very little do I recognize. As I walked in the door it has a look of confusion and disorientation because I expect something fun and friendly in a tourist location. I ordered the only two things I recognized on the menu board: Lental Soup and the fountain drinks (different flavors than in other fast food restaurants). Definitely has a food quality to it I just wonder how they could be at the right location. For a city with such a limited array of foods this restaurant is an in-your-face attempt to be different in DC. Goodso thing the restaurant is so noisy it's difficult to hear assume that the order takers are as they have conversation. read more

What a great spot! This neighborhood is such a tourist trap so it's so nice to see a legit fast casual place pop up. I came in right at 5 on a week night and it was pretty dead. I imagine they do most of their business at lunch. My "yeero" was SO good. The pita was lightly grilled and so fresh. The lamb was meaty and salty and not at all greasy. It totally achieved that classic gyro flavor but elevated just a tad. I asked for the grk tatziki, which was also delicious, but I wish they'd put on more. I actually would have liked about double what they put on. I finished out the meal with frozen yogurt topped with baklava and honey. It was the perfect dessert! Their frozen yogurt is very tart so it was a great compliment to the sweet baklava. Very reasonable prices too. My pita was about $9 and the froyo sundae was $5. read more

Mediterranean bowl was nothing special for the price--it was missing some sauce and a side of pita, both of which would be extra. Roti or Cava are far better options for this style of Mediterranean food in D.C. read more

I studied in Athens for three months, and since returning, I've been constantly on the hunt for authentic Greek food in the states. It was my mission to find DC's best Greek food offerings, and GRK FRESH did not disappoint. The food was great, though it was a little pricey for fast-casual. But I was happy to pay for the quality. The place was hip and well decorated, a really neat spot downtown. Super clean and brightly lit. Service was helpful and quick! The standout here: the frozen yogurt. I haven't found good Greek frozen yogurt since I left Athens, but this... this was IT! And it came with fresh baklava pieces as toppings. Incredible!!! And so pretty! My only wish: that retsina/alpha were offered. Authentic drinks would've made this meal perfect. read more

This place has delicious frozen Greek yogurt! We loved frozen Greek yogurt with honey when touring Greece and I've been on the lookout in the states ever since and am delighted they have it here! In addition to topping it with hi, they have fresh fruit and other toppings, including crumbled baklava which is delicious. It's a touch pricey, but I think it's totally worth it. We tried their entrees once as takeout and weren't as impressed in that realm. I got a gyro platter with giant beans and my husband got a gyro and they were both fine, but the meat didn't seem particularly fresh and juicy. I really enjoyed the giant beans though - aside from the Greek yogurt that was my favorite part of the meal! We were a bit disappointed to have spent almost $30 on our meal (including a medium frozen Greek yogurt) when it wasn't super filling or amazing, but it did satisfy my craving for Greek food so I'll give it that. read more

A solid choice if you're looking for a quick bite before touring Ford's Theater or need an affordable lunch break option. I went for the original beef and lamb gyro which brought back tasty memories of the Greek isles. The cooking style and seasonings are reminiscent of exactly what you'll find in Greece so this is as authentic as you'll get inside the beltway. Service is efficient and knowledgeable if you're unsure what you might like. There is a pretty wide menu beyond the pita wraps. All-in-all a good quick-service establishment serving approachable Greek dishes that will please most palates. read more

Their soft serve yogurt is phenomenal. Get the baklava on top! Also they have really good feta and they'll put it on your gyro if you ask!

I work nearby. The food is totally inconsistent. The Brussels tonight were terrible. Made me wonder if they had gone bad. The menu is way overpriced for this area and this type of food. I'm not going back. read more

GRK FRESH - Brussels - Greek Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

3 stars for a decent Greek spot. My wife and I decided to stop by GRK Fresh, located across the street from the Ford Theater, for a bit to eat on a Sunday afternoon. The venue is very open and clean with a combination of tables with seats and hightops with stools. The kitchen is open concept so that you can see the lamb rotating, and the menu is listed up on a large LED board behind the register. We went up to the counter and put in an order for some Greek yogurt, a piece of spanakopita, a gyro plate, honey brussel sprouts, and Greek fries. The cashier didn't seem terribly interested in talking to us (makes sense due to the location in a touristy area), but he did give us a good heap of toppings on our Greek yogurt. The reason this spot is getting a 3 star is the food. My wife and I eat a lot of Greek food after visiting Greece this past summer. While everything we had here was fine, nothing (aside from the yogurt) was as fresh as you get from most Greek spots. The gyro was just ok, my wife didn't care for the honey brussel sprouts (although I thought they were fun), the Greek fries were just fries with some seasoning, and the spanakopita tasted like it was made the day before. Nothing was bad, but it just struck us more as basic tourist food than anything worth seeking out versus other Greek restaurants in the city. Overall, GRK Fresh is a fine downtown Greek spot if you are in a pinch or visiting from out of town. read more

This I assume would be chicken from the very oily Greek salad that I ordered 10/15/22!!!...Chicken was bland tasted old and was gross!!! I felt something weird in my mouth while trying to chew this mystery meat something felt weird in my mouth, so when I spit it out this is what I was chewing sandwich wrapping paper probably from that reused chicken!!! ! Never again. The salad was very oily also!!! I want my money back $16.27 wasted!!! read more

Very standard Mediterranean food. Ordered the lamb plate. The lamb was kinda dry. The salad and tzatziki sauce was just okay. My favorite item was probably the fries which were seasoned well. Food came out really quick though, probably because everything was pre made. Overall an okay experience. read more

While in DC, we were hoping to find a great gyro. This sadly wasn't it. The tzatziki sauce tasted low fat and also did not come with your order. It was over $1 per small serving. The meat wasn't terrible, but it was far from the best I've had. Definitely wouldn't go back. read more

I really recommend this fast food ann you can not make mistake with gyros !!!!!!!!!!!

Perfectly reasonable fast casual option. On the plus side, gyro was moist and flavorful. On the down side, a bit pricey ($10 for a smallish gyro - fries are extra). Skip the baklava, which was tasty but squishy. read more

GRK FRESH - Beef and Lamb platter with tossed salad and honey Brussels sprouts. - Greek Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

The food was delicious. The best gyro/yeero we've had in a long time. If you are used to European Gyros with cabbage, I highly recommend you get the slaw as a side. Fries were the best fries I've had in the States. Only thing I could say is the bathrooms weren't the cleanest/nicest. But staff was nice. Frozen yoghurt was a hit with the kids. We don't have any pictures because we were too hungry and the food was too good... read more

I guess I'm spoiled by Big Greek in Silver Spring, which is my normal place for Greek. But it was disappointing. The gyro meat wan't what I have come to expect. It wasn't that hearty, satisfying, quasi-sausage-like composite meat product that I'm used to seeing on the spit. The meat that I got in my Greek salad was not that. It seemed like ultra-lean brisket that was cut way too thin and served straight from the refrigerator. And instead of lettuce (there was literally no lettuce in the salad), the green aspects of the salad were slices of mostly green pepper and also some cucumber. It wasn't terrible, actually. But it wasn't what I was expecting. The filling for the spanikopita was actually pretty good. But the fillo dough was thick and hard. The brussels sprouts were way overcooked and seemed like they had been cooked in a sauce that made them taste sour. I wouldn't go back. Sorry to say it. read more

I had never walked by Grk before, but my sister and I had just left the Smithsonian and were in desperate need of a pick-me-up. We wandered in and ended up getting the Spanakopitas - they were delicious! They came out hot, the filling (spinach, feta, grape leaves) was delicious and well-balanced, and the phyllo pastry was very flaky. They were also surprisingly large for the fact that they cost less than $7 each and we left feeling very sated. The rest of the food looked very fresh and tasty as well if you were in the mood for something with meat or a larger serving. read more

IMO the best thing on their menu are the French fries, especially if you eat them while there hot, I most definitely get them whenever I'm downtown shopping, I ordered them on Uber eats and they were soggy, I tried the frozen yogurt and it wasn't what I expected, it wasn't bad but it wasn't delicious either, I also had a beef and lamb gyro which was okay, the meat was a little dry. read more
