I cannot wait to come back and try more from the menu!! My chicken was so hot and juicy. I loved the portion size of the salad and I had enough taziki sauce to put on everything. The staff was very friendly and quick to prep my meal. There was also so many desserts that looked delicious.

| My go-to Mediterranean spot in Columbus! Mad Greek has truly become a staple for me, my friends, and my family. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warmth--especially by the two amazing women at the counter who always offer a friendly welcome and great service. I love it so much that after earning my Master's degree earlier this year, I chose to celebrate there with friends and family. That should say it all! Don't be intimidated by the large menu--everything is made fresh and cooked with love. It's one of those rare places where you could close your eyes and point to anything and it'll be delicious. Just yesterday, I visited twice in one day. First, I stopped in to grab a to-go order for a family member and ordered a large fry for myself (highly recommend--they're hot, crispy, and topped with the most addicting seasoning). But once I saw how good their takeout looked, I immediately got hungry again and went right back for round two. I ordered three Blackened Snapper plates, which come with perfectly grilled snapper filet, spicy sauce, mixed veggies, rice pilaf, and pita bread. One word: AMAZING. Their desserts are homemade and absolutely worth saving room for (if you can!). Bonus points: They have a fully stocked bar An assortment of bottled drinks near the register A drive-up window for pre-placed orders They always include utensils and condiments with to-go orders--no need to ask! They're usually busy (which speaks to their popularity), but the staff works fast and keeps food fresh and hot. This spot truly feels like you're walking into someone's home and being fed a home-cooked meal made with care. Forever grateful for this gem!

Chicken kabobs

Great place for greek... This place is kind of an Eastside legend. It has not changed in forever but it has great food, a nostalgic vibe (both inside and outside), and good service. I had a Gyro, with frys, and a salad. Wifie had the chicken kabobs which she loved. It was a great experience and worth the trip.

They close at 8:30 now!

Service has not been great since the 2 ladies have not worked and it has been months. Ive been calling since 8:30 and received no answer. They need to update their site and sign on the door to say they close at 8:30 now. I and another customer walked away saying the same thing. Maybe they will do better and get better soon!! It's just not the same!!

What a pleasant surprise. I was in the mood for calamari and srooped in. So many different options. I ate there and had the calamari Greek salad and a side of lemon potatoes. Everything was fresh and delicious. The salad was huge and the lemon Preparation for the potatoes was unexpected and delightful. Though I asked for a to go container, I left nothing to take. The time to table was fast I would like to return and try something else.

Menu

I had pretty high hopes for Mad Greek after reading some reviews. The menu is huge, almost daunting at first. But luckily, they have the typical favorites listed at the beginning. I ordered the #1, a small gyro with fries. Admittedly, I was unsure how 'small' the small gyro would be, but figured if it was #1 on the menu it's probably pretty popular so went with it anyway. It was ready in just under 10 minutes, and the employee at the front checked in on me as I waited which was nice. I ordered it to-go, and when I opened it up later I quickly realized that the 'small' was indeed pretty small (could basically fit in the palm of my hand). Wishing I had gotten the regular size, I began eating away. There were quite a few banana peppers that over-powered the flavor, so I wished I would've gotten it without those. Ironically, they gave a huge portion of fries that definitely had plenty of seasoning. They reminded me of Five Guy fries in that they seemed fresh cut but lacked that true crunch. Overall, my experience at Mad Greeks was about average and I take part of the blame for ordering the small gyro. I don't think I would go out of my way to get it again, but if I'm in the area I would consider it.

Greek Fries

I did a carry out order and the ambiance of this place was cool. It's a Greek theme however,this place was great! I ordered Greek fries and they were delicious however, I can't speak for anything else. Also the service was pretty great. The cashier was nice and personable. and the food was ready really fast.

I expected Greek food but what but it had a very limited Greek menu. It was more of a Mediterranean theme.

Lotus Pho and HAWAIIAN BBQ

New to me pho restaurant, looks like it's been open in Reynoldsburg for less than a year. Quiet,…read moresmall restaurant, we were the only ones in there when they opened for dinner at 5pm and a few others trickled in while we were there. Simple menu, but good pho options! The broth wasn't my favorite, but the rare steak was great!! They did forget to leave out onions as requested, but overall service was good when we ordered at the counter.

I saw an article in 614 Magazine featuring Lotus Pho & Hawaiian BBQ and was so excited to see…read moreanother "taste of home." The photos of the Hawaiian BBQ plates looked promising. We invited some friends and went around 7p. There was one other group ahead of us but I didn't think too much of it impacting our wait time. We ordered a Short rib & chicken combo plate, chicken katsu plate, and 3 for $8.50 spam musubis. We also ordered a melon milk tea (I can never find this flavor!) and a passion fruit tea. Short Rib & Chicken Plate: by far, the best marinade and closest to Hawaiian BBQ that I've had in Columbus. The chicken was really good! Everything was chopped up into small pieces instead of the traditional whole piece of meat (chicken thigh and 3-4 strips of short ribs). The short rib was really good as well. The Mac salad is so good! On the sweeter style like in Hawaii. The melon milk tea was good but overly sweet. I went home and added more milk to it and it was edible. The boba pearls were not cooked enough and tough. My husband really liked the passion fruit tea and my son loved his strawberry tea with strawberry popping bubbles. The chicken katsu plate was not my favorite. The chicken was over cooked and too thin so it was a bit like eating cardboard. The sauce was a more traditional Japanese katsu v. Hawaiian style with ketchup/worcestershire sauce. Overall, it was really good and I'm glad to see more Hawaiian BBQ places around Columbus!
