I've ordered Uber Eats from this place before and when I ordered the first time, I ordered it again the next day, it was so good. I was finally in the area and got a chance to go in person and wow, the experience of eating the food fresh there was even better - although I must say this food does travel very well. I wish I caught the young man's name, who was the cashier, but he was great! He was very friendly, just seemed like a good, hardworking kid. I wanted a classic so I just got the gyro platter, the Greek fries and the soup. The soup is so good and reminds me of my favorite Greek place back home in chicago, I used to eat this type of soup every weekend with my family. Ingredients are fresh here and quality is always A1. The Greek fries are my favorite and a guilty pleasure. They are so flavorful and have the best texture. The gyro was also very filling and they really don't skimp out here with their toppings. I'm an extra sauce kinda gal and here, they really just go above and beyond without you ever needing to ask them. I wish I had a closer location in DC! Manifesting a central dc location soon! thanks to your staff for a wonderful meal! read more

The Big Greek Cafe - Gyro Platter - Greek fries - Greek Near Me - Laurel, Maryland

So I was struggling because low key I was on my way to chic fila but it was closed for construction. I was trying to make a healthy decision and stumbled across the big Greek cafe. I checked yelp and it had great reviews so I decided to give it a try. Best decision I made all day. The service I received was amazing. The cashier was super patient. I couldn't figure what I wanted so he had me describe what I had in mind and helped me order. My salad was fresh and delicious. My chicken skewers were so juicy. My potatoes were a bit greasy but tasted perfect. The price and portion were reasonable and don't get me started on the pita bread and the tzatziki sauce. I'll be back... read more

This was such a great stop while at the super chargers. The staff here was fast and polite, the gyro was delicious and the prices were reasonable. Other Greek restaurants can be slow by not here. I had 10 minutes before the supercharger was done and they got it out before. read more

We tried Big Greek Cafe for takeout and overall had a solid experience. I ordered the gyro salad and my husband got the sampler platter. The gyro salad was massive (definitely enough for two meals) though I made it one delicious night. I appreciated that the meat was packed separately to keep the lettuce fresh. At first it looked like a small portion, but once I poured it on, it was more than enough. The gyro meat was flavorful, tender, and everything you want it to be. The salad itself was fresh and generously topped. The sampler platter, on the other hand, was a bit of a letdown. While it came with a good variety and looked like a lot of food, the meat was dry and lacked flavor (it tasted like it had been sitting under a heat lamp for a while). We ended up using quite a bit of the sauces to add moisture and flavor, but even those came in very thick chunks rather than a smooth dip. Still, the portions were generous, and my meal was great. We'd probably come back, but would stick to the gyro or anything made fresh off the spigot. read more

Something has changed here and not for the better. My husband and I have been loyal customers for several years. The food was always generous, filled with lemon and well prepared. The lemon potatoes today had zero lemon as did the avgolemono ( egg lemon) soup. The potatoes which used to be well baked are now hard, boiled. Horrible. I had to put my own lemon on them and make in an airfryer and even then barely edible. The gyros which used to have tons of delicious meat are now much smaller in meat portions, a deliberate corporate change I was informed. If you ever had this food here before you will not be happy and definitely like us not coming back. The service and staff were, as usual, excellent, but there are so many other choices why return? read more

I enjoyed my Gyro. The menu offers a variety of options and the preparation time does not take long. I would recommend visiting and looking for quick Greek food. read more

Gyro salad was really good. Plentiful. Very fresh. Meat was tender and flavorful. Naan was fresh. I'd add two tzatziki sauces but other than that no complaints read more

I've tried their Hercules burger, all of their fries, their grilled chicken salad, their baklava, and their Gyro Pita sandwich. Their food is good- cooked well, mild, good feta, and flavorful overall. I especially enjoy their salads and Big Greek fries. The space is mostly clean, a little old-fashioned design, and the customer service is great depending on the time of day. Parking is easy. I'd recommend! read more

I remember going to several Big Greek Cafe locations when I lived in Montgomery County. I assumed they were only in those few locations. I moved to western Anne Arundel County, and I was happy to discover this nearby location in Prince George's County (Laurel). This location didn't disappoint either. My girlfriend & I went here on Friday, May 24, 2024 after a movie in Beltsville on the way back home. I got my own gyro platter, which was a ton of food, but I was hungry and ate well that night. Rice, gyro meat, pita bread, & side salad were all delicious. My girlfriend got a gyro wrap & fries. Their fries are really good too! But I went healthy with the side salad, but I partook in a few of her fries too. The best fries to get are the Greek fries, which are feta cheese on the fries, but even the plain fries are top notch. Staff was nice here too. read more

Thousands of years before, Kandor was a booming metropolis on the planet Krypton. That was several millennium before Krypton's most famous infant was loaded lovingly into a spaceship by his parents to escape catastrophe and destined to be discovered by the Kent's, and an even longer passing of time from when Brainiac stole and shrunk Kandor with then-Commissioner Zod's blessing. So, for philosophers and historians, a question arose, "What did life become for the residents of that 'bottled' city? I'd like to think the smallest and newest of the Big Greek Cafe's in Laurel, Maryland, at 13600 Baltimore Ave. provides an answer. Just as Laurel's Big Greek Cafe has quickly become a hotspot for citizens of the DMV to snag a Salmon Bowl, Rizogalo (rice pudding), Moussaka (Greek Lasagna-equivalent), a Hercules Burger, gyros, crispy flounder, and Baklava, so too would Kandor become a bustling destination for all Kandorian foodies. In Kandor, after all, there would be no other choice! read more

Absolutely loved my food from here. I tried the our famous gyro pita with fries. Tons of meat on the pita and the fries were amazing! My husband got the gyro bowl. He really enjoyed it. We shared the baklava cheesecake, so good! Just treat yourself and get it! I ordered there at the restaurant and took the food to go. I would say it took about 10 min for them to cook the food. Service was friendly and helpful. The restaurant was fairly small I would not bring a large party to dine in. It was clean inside. I'm not big into Greek food but The Big Greek Cafe may have made me change my mind! Everything was delicious. read more

The Big Greek Cafe for the win! 13600 Baltimore Ave, Laurel, MD 20707 Yummmm ! Greek food has always been a favorite cuisine and this venue did not disappoint! Service was fast and friendly and welcoming. A lot of my favorite dishes. My friend excitedly made me aware that it finally opened! By Lulu's, Cold Stone, Sardis, and Longhorns, Shoppers, and Pets smart.... I think there was a Starbucks there at some time. I'm always down for trying out a little bit of everything for a first impression! I left with belly full of yummies and I had fun exploring the menu! read more

I think I could eat this every week. I'm trying not to. I had a Gyro Bowl twice and it was so good each time. I keep forgetting to take a picture before I start digging into it. One day I hope to go when I'm not so hungry. I would ask to add olives to the bowl. The lemon olive oil vinaigrette was not what I expected but so good with the pita. I think they need to work on consistency because both bowls had different amounts of ingredients that were obvious enough for disappointment. The Gyro Pita was super tasty! The Bifteki Pita wasn't seasoned as much, or at least to our liking, so we wouldn't get it again. The fries are perfect, of course. I need to go to Greece ASAP. read more

A solid 4 stars! Their gyro was fantastic & flavorful as it was wrapped in a soft pita.

I ordered the Big Greek Chicken Bowl because if I avoided the Pita and was careful with the rice, it wouldn't do too much damage to my Weight Watchers points. Ordering on-line was super easy, the order was ready to go right on time and the server was welcoming. More to the point, the Chicken Bowl was fantastic. Turns out, the rice had just a touch of vinegar and I couldn't resist it after all. The home made tzatziki was so good I ended up eating the pita after all. Oh well, there's always next week's weigh-in. Great value for the money. read more

I randomly came across this place on my way home from the Doctor's office. I noticed that there was a Wednesday special which was enough for me to stop on it. The special was a gyro, you could add fries and a drink for an up charge. I think mine was more of an up charge because I got the big green fries with feta and oregano. The gyro was huge and fresh. It was better than what I expected from a fast casual place. I will definitely come back and try more things on the menu. read more

We recently ate at The Big Greek Cafe and it was awesome. We got the triple dip sampler, Greek fries, and spanakopita. The fiesta feta dip was really good. The hummus was alright. The eggplant dip wasn't great. The fries. Omg the fries. *chefs kiss* so good. The spanakopita was also really really good. The gentlemen that took our order was really nice and helpful. He was taking our order, trying to take phone orders, and running food from the pass out to customers. Props to the guy cuz he did not let the stress affect his customer service. It also took like 10 minutes for our order even though they estimated 20. All in all we enjoyed and will definitely be coming back. read more

The food was delicious every time I come here and I am so full and never disappointed at all

I bought the salad and a bowl. If you want meat, they really don't skimp on it. The salad was so fresh and everything that I like in it. Well if I'm being picky they could put a lil more feta in it. 5 stars read more

I was in the Laurel area looking for a healthy food option restaurant. TBGC came up and I decided to give them a try. The restaurant was very clean with a steady flow of customers. The customer service was very pleasant and accommodating. I decided to try The Big Greek Bowl with Falafel, an almond cream pie and a drink. Everything was delicious, the falafel was not over cooked and my dessert wasn't overly sweetened. I really enjoyed my lunch and I'll be back to try more menu items. Side note - The bathrooms were super clean, which is always a plus plus. read more

We were looking for something different and found the Bug Greek Cafe online. It was in an area of Laurel we don't visit often. My wife had the spanakopita appetizer and when it was brought out it was larger that expected. It was flavorful and the pastry was fluffy. I had a gyro and was quite surprised how good it was. The lamb and beef was perfectly cooked and was tender. Tzatziki was flavorful and perfect compliment with tomato's and red onion. It was a little salty for me but overall very good. A nice Greek fast food option if you're in a hurry or for take out. read more

It was my first time at the cafe. On Wednesdays, they have a promotion for 6 dollars Gyros so I decided to try one. Also I never had a gyro. It was good and filling. The cafe is small inside. It was clean. Great customer service. I placed my order in person. I didn't have to wait long for my food. It was nice and warm. They sell other food items besides gyros. I would go back again. read more

The food is amazing. I got lamb chops with the gyro and chicken souvlaki (with extra onions). I prefer to leave a review on the food quality rather than service received. There was one time where I called in to make my lamb chop order rare and what I got was medium well, but the flavor alone was spot on. If you are ever in the area, please visit this place - they have the absolute best food. read more
