Professional and kind staff who were happy to have new customers trying their food. We didn't wait long for the food and were able to admire the themed interior with plenty of information on local businesses. My mother loved the chicken and salad. The spinach and feta pastries were fantastic, too. You should also try their chocolate baklava. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu, these were just our favorites. Excited to visit again in the future! read more

Place is great. Well worth a stop if you're in the areas. I've catered food to many customers from here & ALL have loved it. While the gyros are the best I've ever had, the homemade selections are the true hidden gem. read more

Great food, authentic. Very helpful staff. Very clean. I think the location hurts their potential.

The food is sooooo yummy!! I got the Fish and Fries, and my mother got the Traditional Gyro, both are phenomenal!!! We took it home, but the experience while we were there was great. The kind man who rang us out was so sweet, very attentive and very friendly. The entire restaurant looks super cute, has a very "mom 'n' pop's" style. Overall, I would absolutely recommend people to visit! read more

The Big Greek Cafe - The Fish and Fries, along with some Gyro meat! - Greek Near Me - Harrison, Ohio

I tried big Greek cafe for the first time today and it was amazing!! The food was absolutely delicious.The homemade hummus was great and the warm pita bread was so good!! The best part about the whole experience was the owner of the Greek cafe was super friendly and funny definitely a people person. He even gave me a sample of the meat before I bought my sandwich to make sure I liked it. read more

Love this place. Not for the gigantic gyros, but the patient service as I try to figure out exactly what I want. It happens almost every time I visit. Guess I should go in more often. Very tasty food and don't skip dessert. The dining area is small, but adequate. Highly recommend giving this place a try. read more

Ok, first thing, Covid Restrictions in place. They have a sign on the counter, some sort of a variance so they do not have to wear masks, I guess while preparing food. Regardless, they have only half of their seating available. They do enforce customers wearing masks while ordering or waiting. The place is located in a small strip of stores. it was very dark and we did drive past since the sign out front was one of those multi-purpose signs for several operations in the building. We walk in and are greeted immediately. Friendly young lady takes our order and tells us to have a seat and it will be ready shortly. I ordered the Gyro Burger, consisting of gyro meat with tzatziki, feta cheese, onions, tomatoes and tirokafteri (spicy sauce), and a side order of American fries. My wife ordered the mousakas, a small Greek Salad and a slice of baklava. Our timing was good! When we walked in, there was only one person ahead of us waiting for carryout. However, the cafe must have been preparing other phone orders. Plus, after we sat down, 4 more folks came in and placed orders to go. When they finally called our name for us to pick up our food, the young lady apologized for taking longer than usual and included an extra piece of baklava to make up for the delay. Ok, the food! Be HUNGRY!! The portions were quite generous! The Gyro burger was BIG! A ton of meat, nice, dark, fresh slice of tomato, some onions, the homemade tzatziki and the super tasty tirokafteri! THE special spicy sauce. Interesting stuff, it tastes sweet initially , then you can taste the spice . Not hot , but a really nice flavor. BE FOREWARNED!! Lots of meat and sauce, huge bun, be prepared to use a knife and fork oaths thing as it got messy REALLY fast. But was REALLY Good! The moussaka looked delicious. Again, a very large portion. So big, my wife brought half of it home. She said it was some of the best she has had. The salad looked like it was made from all totally fresh ingredients. And the salad dressing looked and tasted fresh, too. This was in Harrison so for us , it's about a 25 minute drive, but well worth it! If you are in the mood for some GOOD greek food, but nothing fancy as in decor, but clean and bright, THIS is the place to go. Recommend it big time! read more

I don't have anything bad to say about the Big Greek Cafe, but I don't have anything outstanding to say about it either. Ok food, ok service, restaurant is clean. It just felt like something was missing in the taste of the food. read more

I recommend this place because its good food and plenty of it. I will mention that the zaziki (sp) sauce is sour cream based.

Food is delicious, huge portions! Deserts are amazing. Definitely worth a stop in Harrison!

Make sure you are hungry when you stop at The Big Greek Cafe. The food was delicious and the portions were HUGE! You definitely get your money's worth. read more

Great food. Dimitri is a gem. Always makes me smile. Love the feel of the cafe. Always clean and welcoming. A little pricey, but it's worth it. read more

I had the traditional gyro with Greek fries. The gyro was big with lots of meat. The tzatziki was really good and so was the pita. The Greek seasoning on the fries with feta cheese was good. The food was served quickly after ordering from the counter. I love the look and decor of the place, which was very clean. read more

This is a gem in Harrison, OH. I had the gyro with green fried, and delicious baklava and baklava cheesecake. The staff was friendly, fair prices, and the meat was so tasty and fresh. Would love to see how they make a lemon chicken rice soup. read more

If you like Gyros, these are wonderful! Other items as well, but they are high quality and yummy.

What a fun place for lunch. The food and service are at the top of my list. The Traditional Gyro was full of meat that cooked to perfection. If you don't like it, it's your fault. :) read more

My bf and I were trying to figure out where to go for lunch yesterday and his dad recommended this place so we gave a shot since is was closed by. The place is your typical family own restaurant, so is tiny but very neat and catchy since is had ocean blue color all over and Greek decorations all over so it really takes you somewhere. The options are listed on a wall so no menus which is sort of weird but not a big deal, the guy who there was nice and answered all questions about the food. I ordered a Greek salad along with grape leafs and my bf ordered the gyro. Honestly I was expecting better flavor, I've had Greek salads and this was not it, I mean the veggies were fresh and tasty but nothing you can't cut at home for less money, also the grape leafs were like can grape leafs which means they were terrible, I was disappointed. On the other hand, my bf liked the gyro I'm didn't try it but he said it was alright. I had higher exceptions since is a small place and food is usually good and homie at places like those, with that being said not planning on going back there. read more

Pleasantly surprised to find great Greek food in Harrison. (The only Greek restaurant in Louisville is at the once a year Orthodox Festival.) I got takeout, and the hummus was perfect with the fresh pita, and the falafel crisp and not oily. I look forward to trying out the rest of the menu. Service was quick and friendly. read more

Family business with delicious food. The Greek salad and gyros are spot on. Very warm and friendly service.

Omgosh best gyros ever! And the owner is hilarious and fun to talk to. Their menu is much more variety than most other Greek spots.

My new favorite Greek restaurant! We only got take out but wow! The gyro is huge and delicious! The falafel sandwich the same. Perfect crispy exterior with soft flavorful inside. It's hard to find GOOD Greek/middle eastern food but now this will be our "go to " place. Only disappointment was the Greek fries were small but still yummy. read more

Based on our visit tonight, I would not recommend or visit again. Initially I was disappointed that you had to purchase bottled water vs being able to ask for a cup of water. I saw that their menu stated that drinks did not come with ice, but was hoping to at least get a cup of water for my kids who don't drink soda or the other bottled drinks available without the extra charge. The price for Greek fries was also too high for the small and soggy order we received. The visit continued to go downhill when my two kids' cheese coneys arrived way too sloppy and soggy for them to eat. We attempted to cut and scoop them with a fork and knife. Finally, I found the women's restroom with a sign that said "closed, use men's", which was unpleasant to help my young daughter with. Once inside the men's restroom we also found the paper towel dispenser with an "out of order" sign which was about on par with our whole experience. The only reason for giving 2 stars versus 1 is that my husband's traditional gyro was a fairly large size and he said it had a good taste and flavor. read more

Great food with big portions of meat. I forgot how good the food was and I will be back soon.

We stopped here for lunch after hiking at the beautiful Miami Whitewater Forest. It was the best falafel and baklava I have EVER eaten in my entire life. Eat here!!! read more

I give this establishment 5 Gyros in all categories. Great local place to grab some amazing food!!! read more

Harrison's best and only Greek spot! Kind of tucked away in an outlet off Harrison Rd, this place took me by surprise. It has a very comfortable and homey feel to it, and a wide selection of food to choose from. Prices were decent and my to-go order was out pretty quickly. The gyro and fries were awesome, not gourmet or anything, but exactly what I was looking for. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

First of all, it is hard to find. Once you find it, the way the street entrance is arranged, it is VERY easy to bottom the car out. Once inside, you order at the counter, then have a seat and wait for your order to get done. Soda pop available in cans only. Greek food was just okay. I guess the real reason though for the poor rating was being made fun of when I was ordering. I came SO close to giving up. I guess I should have. read more

Good food, reasonable prices and Dimitri is fun and welcoming. I'm honestly not sure why I haven't made this place a regular stop, other than only being in Harrison twice a week. I haven't had anything I didn't like and Dimitri will not only take the time to explain ingredients you're not familiar with, he'll throw in a Greek lesson! Is it the absolute best Greek food I've ever had? No. But come on, it's Harrison. And for small town, it's pretty dang amazing! read more

The Big Greek Cafe - Baklava, lemon egg custard and Greek Apple pie - Greek Near Me - Harrison, Ohio

The best and biggest gyros around anywhere in the Cincinnati area!! Tzatziki is to die for.

Solid Greek food, I'm Greek and more critical of Greek restaurants. This place is good and you can't go wrong with any menu item.

My wife likes Greek Food, so we tried it. It's pretty good. No table service, no refills on drinks. Somewhat expensive.

We had a great experience at The Big Greek. Delicious Greek comfort food, fun atmosphere, and the owner is very friendly! read more

The Big Greek Cafe - Greek Near Me - Harrison, Ohio

Been coming here for years! Never been disappointed at all. Really good Greek food of any variety.

Food and service are very good. Nice to have a Greek restaurant tucked into a little corner in Harrison Oh.

Very good Gyro! They don't skimp on the meat and their sides are pretty good too! The fries I ask them to be fried a little extra (they're not crispy otherwise). The baklava has improved a lot since they first opened. They're very good. Of course the olives and feta cheese are great on the side! Not a fan of the grape leaf appetizer. read more

Food was awesome! Passed by the restaurant one day and thought we'd give it a try. Food is authentic, traditional Greek served with pride. I had chicken souvlaki with Greek fries. For appetizers we order hummus and pita - seriously the best. read more

Food is OK. Owner is not. I asked for grilled onions and got yelled at. He refused to put onions on his grill. The asked for a fork and again got a lecture. NEVER went back read more

While visiting Harrison, Ohio I stopped by to try The Big Greek Cafe! I'm only sad that I'm visiting the area. The food is SO GOOD!!! The family that runs the restaurant is so friendly. Don't miss the chance to get some of the best Greek food I've ever had! I had the gyro and baklava. Both are incredible! read more

We LOVE the Big Greek and try to support it during this Covid crisis by getting carry out once a week. HUGE amounts of meat on the gyros on a normal order; and enough meat to eat the next day when you order "xtra meat". This is our favorite mom & pop restaurant by far! read more

Amazing gyros, Greek fries are incredibly tasty and most impressive is Dimitri the owner's positive attitude and engaging personality! Trip is always worthwhile! read more
