Pick 4 Breakfast - eggs, bacon, sausage and potatoes
Ross M.

After driving by for years and seeing a full parking lot, we finally got up enough courage to stop by and have breakfast. Don't go to IHOP. Eat local. It's much better. Food: 4/5 Came out hot, tasted great. Eggs, sausage, potatoes and pancakes with syrup. I'd skip the eggs Benedict, as it's all about the hollandaise sauce, and order that at your favorite bistro where they make it better. Service: 5/5 Normal, classic, well done service. Was it perfect? No. But who cares. It was real and honest. Ambiance: 4/5 I'm just looking for a place I'd wanna hang out for an hour or so and eat in peace. This place does it. Place was clean and bustling. Overall: Recommended for classic diner breakfast. We'll be back.

Chipped Beef w/ Fried Potatoes
Joshua R.

Nice diner with typical diner fare. Something about me - I LOVE chipped beef, and it's one of my favorite things to order when I visit breakfast diners. I ordered it here, and it was subpar. It wasn't bad, but I think it lacked salt or flavor - couldn't taste the beef, and the gravy was just meh. Our waitress looked came by several times to see if we needed anything, but she seemed to be unsure of herself - perhaps she is new or in training. Seemed like a lot of locals eat here - we were just visiting from out of town.

Chef salad
Sarah D.

Obsessed with their chef salads. Took my mom here for lunch and the Christmas vibes and service were on point. Never had a bad experience here!

Grits, Eggs, and Bacon
Calvin C.

Went here for breakfast. Restaurant was roomy and clean. Breakfast of bacon egg whites and grits was good. I appreciated adding my own salt, pepper, and butter to my grits. Our order came out quickly, like 5 minutes. Service was good and friendly, we did have to ask for the check, but still, a good place to have breakfast.

While many servers deserve recognition, our most recent visit stood out thanks to Sam. She was friendly, helpful, courteous, and genuinely welcoming. Atmosphere: The restaurant features an open seating area, plus a separate side section with additional booths and tables. There's a subtle Greek feel to the space that adds character while still feeling casual and comfortable. Food & Popularity: Because Jimmy the Greek is so popular, wait times can vary depending on when you arrive, especially for larger parties of five or more. If you come later in the morning, they may run out of popular items like biscuits and gravy, which are signature breakfast dishes. On rare occasions, we've also experienced food that was slightly underdone (such as eggs under-cooked too soft or French toast that was a bit soggy). Overall Experience: Jimmy the Greek is one of the best breakfast spots in the Stafford/Fredericksburg area and even in several surrounding counties. Despite a few minor drawbacks, it remains one of our top breakfast choices and easily earns five stars. Our experiences have been consistently positive, and the quality of both the food and service keeps us coming back. I highly recommend giving it a try!

This is "Greek-style" and not a Greek eatery. What a disappointment. I do so love Greek food which…read morelured me here, so I write this as a cautionary review. Whats more sad is that I paid $15 for something that isn't at all as advertised. I ordered the Chicken Souvlaki Greek Salad as I love grilled meat. Never have I had souvlaki in over a dozen voyages to Greece that was wet boiled or microwaved, as this chicken seemed to be. Souvlaki are grilled skewers. This place should NOT sell the pile of bland, blond, wet chicken breast as "souvlaki." The "Greek" salad was sad. No other way to describe it. It had the ingredients of a Greek salad (lettuce, tomato, cucumber) but the feta was meager and there were no onions. The tzatziki was more akin to ranch dressing (not made with yogurt- real Greek yogurt would hold a spoon standing in it. This was almost liquid.) ) and the pita was a doughy, cheap substitute. Their listing says fresh bread, and this pita was not so much. The owner seems nice and personable, and I wish him well but I also wish he would pay more attention to the product he delivers, especially if they call it, Greek. UPDATE from owners rebuttal: I write fair reviews as I experience the food. The issue is not whether you have fresh ingredients or quality chicken: it is clearly stated what you served was just not souvlaki in anyway, it was wet sautéed chicken and that was not traditional tzatziki. It was tzatziki-like sauce. Period. If you go to a pizza place to buy a pizza and you get high quality toasted bread with excellent tomato sauce and good mozzarella- it's still not a pizza, no matter the quality, and you shouldn't call it a pizza. I don't deny you are Greek, proud or otherwise, just serve what you advertise. Good luck to you too!

Truthfully, we didn't know it was a Greek grill spot until we were craving Gyros. Gyro was awesome (ask for extra tzatziki or add it to the gyro) We didn't get anything else this time. The store is clean and has a couple dine in tables. But the real move is to call your order in for pick it up! Probably our move for future Vienna festivals, parties etc. Staff was great...super friendly. Price was reasonable...cheaper than Chinese and healthier. Happy to find a new local spot.

Plaka Grill specializes in gyros and Greek fast food. We ordered gyro platters that came in a bed…read moreof rice with a side salad included. It was our first time ordering pork-meat gyros and they were really good. We ordered a side of Greek roasted potatoes, as well as French fries. Those potatoes were excellent. They were full of tasty flavor. Lastly, we ordered a chicken gyro platter. It was good too. The pork meat gyro was delicious too. Where Plaka Grill fell down for me was on the side dishes. The salad was wilted and plated in the same container as the meat and rice. The steam from the other hot dishes could have caused the wilting. I was not a fan of the rice either. The other people in our party were fine with the rice, so maybe it was just me. I have heard about Plaka Grill as a family dining destination. I think looking at the reviews and sharing my experience, they need to revamp a few items. We still enjoyed our meal and the portions were generous. I am so sorry that I forgot to take pictures.
