Excellent, very friendly service, above and beyond in my opinion. The atmosphere is comfortable and the building itself is mucher bigger inside than it appears outside. There's also a full bar in the back. I had a small greek pizza, and a side of spanakopita, and it's all homemade. Very delicious, very satisfying, I'd definitely return again. read more

We needed calmer respite from the crowded Portland downtown, and this place could not be more perfect for our family. The food was delicious, with some interesting options (breakfast pizza, Thai chili chicken salad, etc.) alongside some Greek and pizza classics. The real star here though is the service - the owners could not be more welcoming and friendly. Wish we lived closer so we could be regulars! read more

Kozeta's Restaurant - Breakfast pizza - delicious! - Pizza Near Me - Westbrook, Maine

it is the perfect side of the road place to go to. I had the pesto pizza, side salad, and large garlic bread. It was FANTASTIC. My husband got the gyro dinner and it was "the gyro I dream of". We are visiting the area but if you are thinking of stopping by here, please do! you will not regret your decision. The comfy booths and "at home" feeling is just what you are looking for after a day of travel. read more

Fantastic service for a perfect home made meal! Pasta is amazing and wonderful service mixed with great people!

Best pizza around. Convenient to the drive-in theater. Worth the trek up route 302. Friendly, family-owned; serving simple and delicious food. read more

I ordered a pizza and was so excited to have a good pie after reading the reviews. Unfortunately I ended up being disappointed because the crust was too thick and was crunchy and dried out. I should have ordered a thin crust but I didn't. I'll try a thin crust at some point and will hopefully have a better review next time. read more

Absolutely delicious!! The inside isn't fancy at all, (carpet etc) but I would go back for the food and the service read more

BEST chicken gyro I've ever had. We did a takeout order and everything was ready when we picked up. The staff were very welcoming. I can't wait to go back again! read more

Best cheese pizza we have had in a long time! Passing through town from Frye Island. We got hungry and stopped. The pizza crust was toasted well yet soft! The sauce was tasty and not over powering with flavor. And the cheese was melted just right! read more

Delicious salads and pizza!!! Convenient location as your heading to the lakes region. Good service and value. Highly, highly recommend it!

Went here the other night and the service was great. Place was clean. Pizza was delicious along with their gyros and kids thoroughly enjoyed their chicken fingers and burgers. The fries were homemade and delicious too! read more

Ordered 2 pizzas for delivery, Buffalo Chicken and Hawaiian. The Buffalo Chicken pizza had dried sauce, fried chicken pieces and burnt cheese. It felt like eating a dried piece of bread with dried hot sauce on top. It was truly atrocious. The Hawaiian didn't fare better. This pizza had all pineapple pieces in the middle and there wasn't enough sauce on the bread. The crust was so hard and dry the next day, my son broke his tooth (baby teeth, thank god!). I won't order pizza's from this place again for sure! Buffalo Chicken Pizza read more

Stopped here on the way home from Bridgton and wow!! The gyros were THE BEST we've ever had! Had a lamb and chicken, the meat was perfectly seasoned, a perfect portion of tzatziki, and the pita was top notch! The very nice lady that helped us told me that their gyros are great but her pizza is the best around....if that's true it could be top 10 in the world! read more

Stopped in for my first time, after seeing other good reviews here. Had a great experience from the moment I walked in. I was greeted by the owner and got immediate service! I had the Greek pizza which was light, easy to eat and made with fresh ingredients. I will be back very soon! read more

Visited from Texas, and hands down the most delicious pizza! Light airy crust, perfectly toasted on bottom. You will not be disappointed.

Kozeta's is back open after the devastating fire shut them down a while back! The remodeled dining area is setup even better than before. There is still plenty of on-site parking. The staff is just as friendly and inviting as they ever were and the food is full of flavor! My pastrami sandwich had a generous amount of melted provolone on top and you could tell it was made on a fresh sub roll. When you bit into the delicious bread it had the perfect balance of soft on the inside but toasted on the outside. Sometimes when you get toasted sandwiches they crumble or fall apart while you are eating them because the bread wasn't completely fresh to begin with and they are over-toasted. Not here! My daughters got a pepperoni and hamburg calzone. Again, nothing but yummy. I do have one critique though. The calzone didn't have any height to it. It wasn't filled like you'd normally expect one to be. It was more like a stuffed pizza and not as big as a traditional calzone. My 10 year old was able to eat the whole thing within minutes because it was the size of 3 slices of a 10 inch pizza. read more

After a long day at the ER in Portland, Kozeta's was a heaven-sent pit-stop on the way home. Wonderful pizza and dolmas, plus a very healthy chicken salad wrap. And, a very inviting dining room, and very friendly and welcoming staff. Bravo!! read more

Amazing pizza and amazing owners! We were driving to our rental and decide to stop for some pizza, and what a gem is that place. Hopefully we will try something else from the menu during the weekend. Thank you Kozeta's! read more

Fantastic pizza and service! Light and crispy crust, freshest veggies on top. Highly recommend!

We moved here two weeks ago and have eaten there six times. We love the Buffalo chicken pizza with blue cheese added. The spaghetti sauce is excellent and everything is fresh and well prepared across the board. read more

Excellent food for very reasonable pricing, nice people, fine atmosphere, clean, flowers...recommended. Also a bar with TV at low vol with take out available. read more

Great pizza and super friendly staff, excited to try more from their menu - will definitely be back!

Don't let the outside fool you! The inside is bright and festive and the friendly owners make you feel right at ease and treat you like family. I tried the the Cobb Salad & Teriyaki Chicken Pizza. The presentation of the salad was amazing and everything was really fresh. It was great to not have to pick off a lot of extra stuff off my salad-only thing I missed was the egg. Pizza was amazing. Chicken was not too strong & still crisp. Give it a try. You will not be disappointed. read more

Stopped in about a half hour before closing. Great family owned restaurant with amazing pizza. I'm gluten-free so I ordered a salad with chicken and homemade dressing. My family loved their pizza and I enjoyed my salad. We will be back soon. Great, clean place. read more

This past Tuesday, out of curiosity, I decided to try out Kozeta's Restaurant on Route 302 in Westbrook. I knew nothing about their fare and with an open mind hoped the restaurant might be a "hidden gem". I had difficulty upon perusing the menu in finding anything to eat that seemed remotely enticing that was not high in calories or empty carbohydrates Eventually, I settle dupon their chicken stir fry as it's the only healthy meal on the menu besides the salads. When the meal arrived it's presentation was as bland as the food tasted. The dish was about as mediocre as I've ever had. A white plate sans any garnishment, little slivers of veggies, "institutional" chicken tenders and served on starchy brown rice. Turns out the server was the owner. If anyone should know to offer a diner water with their meal she should but that was not the case. It's not as if they were very busy mind you; there was one other diner in the restaurant. The meal arrives. I'm famished and dig in. The owner eventually comes over and asked how the meal is. I look at her and begin to speak uttering the word "Well" about to tell her my thoughts, which wouldn't have been overly praiseworthy. She interrupts me and says, "Just so-so?" I said, "Well to be honest the meal doesn't have a lot of taste". The owner at this point gets hostile. She says, "Well everyone who comes here loves my food...." I exclaim that "I'm not EVERYBODY". I imply that as the owner it might behoove her to listen to the opinions of others especially those people we are not overly impressed with the food". The owner's condescending attitude in response was off putting and argumentative, I made some constructive suggestions as to how I felt she could improve this dish yet my opinion seemed like the last thing she wanted to hear, I wish I could write a favorable review especially in view of the fact that I am a staunch supporter of local businesses. As a consumer honest reviews are important in making decisions on where to spend our hard earned money. Social media holds us all accountable and reviews on sites like Yelp, Urban Spoon and Four Square aid consumers by providing us all with useful information that guides our decisions when we are looking for new places to eat. Hence, I felt compelled to post this review even after reading that most people who have dined at Kozeta's in the past have had positive experiences. In closing my dining experience was unfavorable predominantly based upon the food and the way I was treated as a customer. In my opinion Kozeta's menu is unimaginative, the dish I had was unsavory (not to mention skimpy in terms of portion size) and the owner definitely has a chip on her shoulder. At the end of the day what matters is customer satisfaction, which is something I learned from reading "The E-Myth". It is not about what you sell but how you treat your customers that is of paramount importance. read more

I've been getting my haircut at Goodfellas in Westbrook for a few months now. This is when I noticed Kozeta's which is right next door. Decided to give it a try with them being Greek and me not having tried Greek food. We were immediately greeted with a smile by the owner who asked us if we were dining in or getting takeout. We went with the takeout route. They do offer a variety of breakfast items, although the breakfast pizza is what comes recommended by locals. We went for dinner so we ordered Jalapeño Poppers, Spanakopita, and a 10" All Meat (Sausage, Pepperoni, Ham, Hamburger, Bacon, Sausage, Meatball). While we were sitting waiting for our food I looked around and really enjoyed the vibrant colors they had throughout the restaurant. The poppers were probably microwaved but weren't bad at all. The Spanakopita was what hit the spot! Most places tend to buy it out of the box but you could taste the freshness of the dough and spinach. It had that homemade taste to it. The pizza was also very good! Crust was not too soft but not too crunchy ether. I can't comment on the service because we got takeout, but we will be returning to dine-in! The best thing about this place is that it's local to Westbrook and small authentic places like these are very rare in this town. read more

Back in business after rebuilding from a fire, it looks to be on track for success. Best spanikopita (Greek spinach pies) in Portland. Great salads. Excellent Greek style pan pizza. The menu is big and I'll be back to try more. read more

Wonderful food! Wonderful owners! Love this place. Hawaiian pizza is magical and the wings are crispy perfection!!! Cannot say enough about the quality of the food or the kindness of the owners. read more

Just received our 1st order from Kozeta's and WOW, we are fans. We ordered several pizzas (cheese, buffalo chicken, and hamburg) French fries and wings. All are amazing. Wings are super crispy and tasty. Buffalo chicken is loaded with chicken and the hamburg pizza has lots of meat as well. We ordered the regular crust. All were amazing. Don't hesitate to order from this place! read more

Friendly service, casual dining-Delicious homemade pizza!! Homemade pittas for their Gyros and homemade marinara, yummy! The spanakopita was flaky and the portions generous.

I drove by recently and they are remodeling after the fire. Hoping to open again soon!

We are so happy the restuarant is back open again! Tonight we had the best pizza ever...Hawaiian with feta and we had buffalo wings. The pizza was so good, we saved a few for breakfast. Yes, breakfast! read more

I love this small business and as a small business owner myself, I appreciate good , honest people offering a good product ( there are many here) with excellent service. When our family stepped in, the owner immediately greeted us with a smile and said to sit anywhere. We sat down at a booth ( 5 people). The owner came over and offered us a chair to be more comfortable. She was so accommodating and genuine. In another review there was criticism of the side room where there is a pool table and that the bar had an odd tiki bar theme. This is because the owner spends so much time in bringing out their best products : their foods in quality and freshness that they " overlook" on other aspects. This owner wants to please everyone who comes in including children so she offers a "playroom" for the children. There is nothing wrong with that. Having a bar and being able to offer a beer to patrons, nothing wrong with that either. Now their food: House pizza was fresh with quality ingredients . The crust was awesome light and crisp not soggy after all that toppings ( see picture). Cheese and steak : filled with meat and the bread was soft. The Cobb salad was good with chunks of chicken and feta cheese. It was missing tomatoes, cucumber and hard boiled eggs but was nevertheless a good salad. The chicken pesto fettuccini was good with chunks of tender chicken and pasta was cooked perfectly. Yes I had a bite of everything! Overall will come back for their pizza! Love that crust! read more

Absolutely perfect, sweetest old lady helped me decide what I wanted ( large cheese pizza ) and it was beyond perfect. Definitely a hole in the wall read more

Food ***** Service ***** Ambience **** I liked the homemade pizza crust, has a soft bread like sponginess to it so it is not too chewy like most pizza crust. When in town, I would order to have garlic dressing on the crust. The ingredients used were high quality, fresh, and generously portioned. The owner have a cheerful personality and all the more reason to stop by more often for the tasty homemade Greek pizzas! I also ordered the spinakopitas, and they are nicely sized and well filled with spinach and cheese, best part was they weren't too salty. I appreciate that a lot. read more

The owner is the sweetest and engaging with all the customers. Food is wonderful. Restaurant is S P O T L E S S. We came in at lunch and I was watching her scrubbing the backs and spindles of chairs on the other side of the dining room. The chicken and lamb gyros did not disappoint and house dressing on the salad was perfect. Finish it with the baklava. You won't be disappointed! read more

I have a lot of opinions about Kozeta's restaurant. First, the positives. They have consistently solid diner type food, similar to what you might get in a big shiny diner in the tri-state area (the kind that used to have mini juke boxes at the table and a rotating desert cabinet). You can usually get breakfast anytime of the day (except Friday) and they do offer some greek specialties like a chicken or lamb gyro and spanakopita triangles. Greek specialties that are almost impossible to get around here. They also have fairly reasonable prices and are never super crowded. Oh, and the people working there are usually very nice. On the other hand, their physical space is weird and doesn't have comfortable flow for customers choosing to eat in the restaurant itself. The booths are placed in 3 matching rows so you could be sitting on top of the people at the next table over. Each row ends with a half booth, half chair table that juts out into the middle of the restaurant where there are almost always a bunch of people waiting for takeout. These tables allow for NO privacy whatsoever, they are almost a group experience. There is a strange tiki-themed bar that might be one of the most uninviting bars I have ever seen in my life, AND in the back, there is a big, unused open space with a pool table and a flat screen TV. I have NEVER seen anyone in that space ever, which is very confusing and slightly creepy. Every time I have ever been to Kozeta's they seem rushed and overwhelmed, EVERY TIME. Granted, I often go on the weekend, but I though the whole point of running a restaurant is to encourage customers??? The woman who runs the place is SUPER nice but is always apologizing while 4-8 people stand around waiting for their take out orders. I have literally never been to Kozeta's when this was not the case. This past Friday night as the same scene played out again, I wondered if she ever gets tired of apologizing so much. I most sincerely hope that they figure this whole tangle out. Maybe hire more people? Figure out a better ordering system? I have no idea, but right now it's not good. The food is good to very good, the atmosphere is most definitely not. read more

Yeah, this place looks unimpressive from the outside but don't let that stop you from giving it a try. The homemade dishes are exceptional. I ordered the Whole Nine Yards. The over medium eggs were cooked perfectly. The sausage was crispy on the outside and deliciously flavorful. Home fries were homemade and the pancake was the perfect consistency and flavor. Breakfast is served all day. My wife ordered chicken quesadillas. The crispy tortillas are thickly stuffed with ingredients. The marinated chicken really stands out. She's a picky eater and was very, very happy with her choice. We didn't try the pizza but I heard that it is phenomenal. If you're in the Portland area, give this place a try! read more
