Loukaniko with scrambled eggs, home fries, and a biscuit.
Conrad L.

Outstanding neighborhood restaurant with a comfortable feel serving Greek and American dishes. Friendly, efficient service and really satisfying meals make this place a must if you're on Shore Drive in Virginia Beach.

Spinach, tomato, onion, feta omelette... with home-fries and rye toast.
Sharon C.

The food was wonderful, with great portions and quick fabulous service! I had the spinach, tomato, onion and feta omelet. It was a crepe style egg and then stuffed with a nice portion of spinach onion, tomato, and feta cheese. I also ordered extra crispy home-fries with onions and rye toast. Everything was made to perfection and service was pleasant and super fast! I can't wait to come back and try the other delicious looking menu items!

Great food! Cute little diner off Shore Drive - folks were nice. Would recommend but small so you may have to wait a little for a table.

Cornbeef Hash with grilled onions (onions added on)
Fina K.

Umm.. just a big WOW! This place is a treasure! I truly mean that! Set back from the street you easily pass it and takes a little effort to find parking, But folks it's all worth it! The decore is simple when you walk in, but soon as the waitress brings out the food plates my eyes and smile was ear to ear! The Lobster Beni was made perfect and very generous along with the home fries. The Cornbeef Hash was awesome added grilled onions on top. And it's so nice they can make it to order The Stuffed Berry French Toast was so stuffed with FRESH berries and they put even more on the side witj whip cream! I was so glad the owner "Milton" came by to see if everything was good! Cause I just wanted to tell him how fabulous my experience was! So for you foodies find this treasure and give it a try! Definitely will be back plenty of times!

Inside seating.
Lisa O.

To me this is a locals spot. It is an ok size inside. Not a super big place but roomy enough that your not sitting right on top of another group. The wait staff are good. Not overly friendly but like I said a lot of locals go here so if you know them they talk to you more. They are good at taking your order and they get it right every time. Even when you put in special request. We have been a few times now. My bestie loves this place. This is her favorite place to go. I personally think the food is fine. The Classic eggs benedict is ok. Their sauce is not my favorite. I have a couple other places I like better. The omlette is good. House hashbrowns are ok. Bacon could be a little more crisp for my taste. But that is my preference. I do ask for extra crispy and they have done that but the first time I had it was wimpy. So you have to know to ask to make things crispy. I am not use to telling the chef how to cook everything I order. For me this is a solid 3 1/2. Food is a 4 or 4 1/2. Staff are a 3. Parking lot is small but we have not been when it is busy. I would NEVER go on a busy time. Ya know there is always room for improvement . So for now I I will stick with the 3 1/2 With room for improvement

Sweet potato pancakes with corned beef hash

We were camping at First Landing State Park and sought out a hidden little gem of a place for a quick but tasty breakfast. Milton's Cafe fit the bill. My husband had the Western omelet with home fries and rye toast and I had the sweet potato pancakes with corned beef hash. Both dishes were very good and service was great (we sat in the bar area). It's a small establishment with a big menu. Would highly recommend.

We've loved it, quite literally. But after today and sheer number of problems, we doubt we would ever return, and that's very sad to us. We went after church. We were the ONLY customers there. I saw them doing a Door Dash order or two, but basically it was just us, a party of 4. One server working the floor. Our order. Wife got the beef-souvlaki Greek salad. Daughter a Greek gyro. Son a 16" pizza half pepperoni half grilled chicken. Me a 16" supreme pizza. I even talked to the server about "supreme" and she was like yeah, oh yeah, I got you, I know what that is. And I said I really like heavy toppings, especially the olives and mushrooms. I heard her literally go tell the cooks that. She returns to tell me they have NO ONIONS TODAY! What else for my pizza. Disappointed, no onion? It's Noon on a Sunday and we are the only customers. Ok, sub with tomato. Daughter loved her gyro. She said best ever. She doesn't like opinions, so it's perfect, she didn't have to pick them off. She loved it. Wife gets her souvlaki- beef Greek salad. NO ONIONS. She didn't tell her that. My wife wants those darn onions on a salad, to be sure. But wait, wait... also no Feta cheese at all on this Greek salad. But wait, there's more. The beef, every piece, is so tough, it's like tire rubber. Truly. None of us can chew it up. Literally, it's THAT bad. You're telling me the cooks didn't know it was tire rubber??? My pizza. Smelled good. But, very very SPARSE toppings! I asked for extra. I heard her tell them extra. Nope, just a light sprinkling of veggies. Darn. BUT WAIT! This Supreme had exactly ZERO meats. Zero. And just a light sprinkling of before toppings. My son's pizza? Half pep, half CHEESE. WHERE'S THE GRILLED CHICKEN??!?!? And the waitress is very unattentive, playing on her phone, not looking at us. Very hard to get my drink refills. I finally waive a cook over, the server is still on her phone. I said the pizza was supposed to have grilled chicken, and the beef on the salad was tire rubber, 100% inedible, replace with chicken, please. So they grilled some chicken up and brought it for the pizza and another salad for my wife. Still no feta cheese. Stayed tuned folks, the best is yet to come. The chicken made the pizza much better. My wife was already put off by the tire rubber beef they actually served her, and no onion and feta on a Greek salad. She just wanted to run the heck out of that place. But wait.... The coup de gras. While picking through the lettuce on her salad, we found a BABY COCKROACH , yep, alive and crawling around. We were about to go ballistic with all these screwups, and I just decided to not complain, and to never return, and voice it in a Yelp review, so others are aware Papa's Greek has come off the tracks, and needs to find its self again....... They were lost as lost can be today.

They seemed rather chaotic when I arrived and it appeared that one very pleasant gentleman was literally juggling and balancing all of the customers! He did offer his apologies more than once because it seemed a guy like me sitting alone in the corner was almost an afterthought. He did explain the soups ... I went for the chicken soip and had already decided on the beef schwarma. The chicken soup was reminiscent of a good Jewish Deli chicken soup with enough goodies in the broth and big chunks of chicken yet the broth was the star. The schwarma was really good too. Somewhat different than others I have enjoyed but different in a good sense A small container of food tasting hummus completed the meal At check out ... well with more than one set of apologies I was an afterthought.

The food was ready in about 8 minutes and the gentlemen brought it out to my car, which was very nice. I liked the chicken gyro. It was different textures because of the toppings with a good taste and crunch. The chicken tawook was also good. I liked the beef as well, it was tender and the sauce on it was good. The hummas and tzatziki sauce tasted good also. It made the gyros better. I like that the gyros are rolled kinda long and thin so its easy to eat without everything spilling out. You could easily eat it and drive. The rice was cooked just right. It had no flavor at all, but it was somehow still good... I'd return to try other things. If your looking to try some different foods, this is a good place to try... I got some drinks and a few were good, but one was to sweet. I had fun picking out random things to try though. 4 stars!!

Good spot for a med-style build-a-bowl. Several base options (basmati rice + mixed greens were…read moretasty) and LOTS of toppings. You get to pick 10- they were all pretty tasty. Particularly loved the spicy feta dip, baba ganoush, sumac cukes, and pickled beets. Falafel was also tasty- I think I liked this better than the veg kefta. I think they might have missed the spicy hummus and beet dip in my bowl, but to be fair, the bowl was packed to the lid and there really wasn't room for more. Harissa and lemon garlic sauces were both tasty. The pita, tho, was pretty terrible. The bowl comes with a half piece of pita and I ordered an extra on the side- both were brittle, dry, and breaking a part- definitely past their prime. I ordered via Uber Eats and it came without utentils or napkins, so be sure to ask if you are ordering delivery. And the pelegrino comes in a glass bottle and requires a bottle opener, so keep that it mind if you are in a hotel without kitchen supplies. :-) Hoping that they have fresh bread other days bc I'd def order again for a healthy, filling dinner.

Time for an update…read more My husband ordered me a Chicken Schwarma wrap from the airport as I had gotten up early, run a race, and was home alone for the night with our young toddler to surprise me - waiting for me when she went down for bed for dinner. I opened the wrap to find no chicken at all, like two extremely tiny dark dark brown pieces of meat, not fresh tomatoes or any of the usual things and a TON of sauce with some spinach. It's the worst wrap I've ever had in my life. I tried to call their store to complain and spoke to an AI chat bot that went around and around with me. I am astounded by the good reviews - my first experience was also a bowl so it seems those might be decent but the wrap was by far the worst I've ever had and was so swimming in sauce that even if it had chicken, which it certainly did not, it would have no really been edible. Gross. And a terrible thing to do to someone for dinner delivery when it's so late at night. I was exhausted from a long day and was really looking forward to this for dinner. Wouldn't recommend them to anyone.

Actually, there is ample seating, but I can see it being overwhelmed on a busy Saturday. Before your first visit, you would benefit by looking at the menu beforehand. We were warmly greeted. You let the counter server know what you want and they make your creation in front of you. They'll ask if you want it to go or to eat in and they will serve accordingly. One coworker ordered a wrap and wolfed it down so fast - it must have been delicious. I didn't get a chance to ask what he had. My other co-worker ordered the beef and lamb bowl with a base of mixed greens, adding onions, cucumbers, feta cheese, and tzatziki sauce. He also shared his hummus and pita chips with us. The hummus is exactly what you would expect - creamy and seasoned perfectly. The chips were a tiny bit oily, but I wasn't complaining. The texture - crispy on the outside and tender on the inside - made you want to eat a big bag of them. I ordered the beef and lamb bowl with a base of yellow rice. They were generous with both. For my toppings, I chose pickled red cabbage, tomatoes, and feta cheese. For the sauces, I chose tzatziki and tahini. Every forkful was a tasty, savory bite. It was all so yummy and fresh. I was eating faster than normal because it was just so good and forced myself to slow down. All the flavors complemented each other. I could have gorged myself and finished that bowl but asked for a lid so I could take my leftovers home. I can't wait to repeat that scrumptious journey. For my next visit, I will ask for less rice and more red cabbage. As an eggplant lover, I would love to try their baba ganoush (plus it's so fun to say baba ganoush). For the typical working lunch, it's not inexpensive (with can soda, mine came out to $22.38) compared to fast food. But it's worth it and you are worth it. You are getting large portions of quality food that will make your mouth sing. I'd gladly bring in a sandwich from home twice a week in order to eat here. This gem is such a great addition to the restaurant scene here. Please stop by and try their dishes. If you enjoy it - spread the word so others can enjoy it too. You will not be disappointed. I can't wait to come back. It might be tomorrow . . .
