Used to go to the Troy in Berkeley, but this one is closer to bowling, food is out fast, and the staff is super nice! My go-tos are either the gyro wrap or Impossible wrap with Greek fries, all slathered in their green hot sauce. Just roll up with a dump truck and pour the green sauce in my mouth, it's that good. read more

I remember loving Troy so much, but I fear it's not the same anymore. While still decent, it's no longer memorable. Tbh, the best thing was the fries. Serving size for everything is very fair and it is priced well, but flavor seems to be lacking now. The lamb tasted dry/old. read more

Came here on a Saturday evening to enjoy some dinner before heading to a movie to stay dry in the rainy weather. Located conveniently in the heart of downtown Alameda, this was a great spot to stop by! Staff and Service: - We were helped right away upon entering - All staff were nice and helpful Food and Drinks: - Margarita: not the best Margarita, but it was good - Bloody Mary: first time I've seen this - instead of bacon, it comes with gyro meat! - Greek Fries: definitely made upon order as these are hot and crispy - Beef Souvlaki Wrap: tasty, flavorful, and filling (definitely recommend using both of their hot sauces if you like spice) - Gyro Wrap: also tasty, flavorful, and filling - Tzatziki Appetizer: comes with one pull pita (four slices) Miscellaneous: - Plenty of seating for groups of 1-4 (I'm sure they can put some tables together). Bar seating available (with a big TV) - Parking available via street parking or parking in the Civic Center parking structure - The acoustics must be good because the restaurant was pretty full, but it wasn't loud (love this) read more

I love a good Greek place. Alameda has so many choices. Food was great! Service at first ...we weren't sure whether we seat ourselves or not. People walked by us not saying anything. So we sat ourselves. But apparently we went in the wrong seats. lol. After that everything went up hill. Service was great. Loved the recommendations. Smaller restaurant and felt cozy. read more

This was our second time dining here and food and service have been great. It has a nice open dining area with outdoor seating. We ordered the salmon platter, falafel wrap and Greek fries. The salmon platter was served with grilled zucchini, rice, tomato/cucumber salad and pita bread. It was delicious with a generous serving. Falafel wrap was mediocre, but the Greek fries were the best in town. So good! We'll definitely be back. read more

This place is decent. The falafels / falefel wraps / plates are or can be made vegan. The food is ok, personal opinion it's on the blander side, but it's fine. The staff is very friendly and helpful and the place seems adequate. It looks clean and it does it's job. This place isn't spectacular in my opinion and it's still a nice place to go to from time to time. read more

Troy - Vegan falafel wrap - Greek Near Me - Alameda, California

Walt from Walt's Adventures reporting from Troy. Regrettably, not from Greece but, instead, from Alameda, California. This Greek restaurant has a lovely indoor dining area and also a covered outdoor dining area for those who enjoy the outdoors. We were immediately directed to our table and were soon enjoying our drinks. Our selections were all quite good. They all possessed an attractive appearance. The platter, as seen in the attached picture, was created with great care, the Greek fries prevented me from consuming just one, and the Falafel was... ok. Our party found the Falafel good but was a bit on the dry side for our tastes. My followers will no doubt know that my reviews of Greek eateries are rare. Troy is a great restaurant If one is seeking conversation and great food, then travel to our nearby island of Alameda read more

We came here Saturday for lunch. Immediately sat down and it was half packed. We ordered two of the Gyros and a fries to share. Food came out very fast. I love how they gave us both sauces. My wife loves the green sauce and I love their red sauce. The fries used to be double fried but it was still yummy. Staff here was super nice and courteous and the ambiance here was awesome. Nice to spend a day date with my wife and enjoy good food read more

I had a nice grilled chicken salad for a light lunch. friendly service was provided. the end

Troy's has fantastic Mediterranean food! We sat down right away - no waiting. I ordered the Meza Platter (vegetarian appetizers) as my entree. The menu lists components as Hummus, Falafel, Dolmas, Melitzano salata, Feta cheese, Olives and served with pita. ($16) I also got an order of Spanokopita ($7) read more

Good food, generous portions, friendly & helpful service, nice outdoor seating. Overall, really nice & I would go back.

Food 3.5/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance 3.5/5 Fried Calamari appetizer (3/5) was good, but small quantity for the price ($18). Garlic Fries (5/5) & Onion Rings (4/5) were crisp! The Chicken Souvlaki was flavorful (4/5), but the Lamb Souvlaki was a bit overcooked (3.5/5). read more

I've been eating at Troy since the day they opened. The dining room is nice and the food is consistently good. But service today was extremely inconsistent. The server seemed very amateur. Halfway through the meal I was asked if I needed my check now. I never received any utensils. Today was the first time I've been charged $3 to refill my Diet Pepsi glass. I understand financial times are tough, but long-term customers spending upwards of $70 on dinner should not be charged $3 for a $0.10 glass of flat diet Pepsi. Sadly today's review is a significant downgrade. read more

The food is okay but it doesn't have the vibe it use to have. In fact the Moussaka I had this last time was like being served from a microwave prepared days before. I would travel further the next time I want Greek food even though this Troy is in walking distance. read more

Troy is a great authentic Greek cuisine restaurant. They have kebab, falafel, wraps, and more! The service was exceptional and the food was at the table very quickly after we ordered. Troy's is one of my favorite spots to eat at when in Alameda. They have many beer, wine, and non-alcoholic drink options. Highly recommend stopping in if you're in the area! read more

Our guest's favorite food is Mediterranean, so we took her here after our visit to Rosenblum Winery. Quality/Quantity - All the food was good! As they always are. Falafel - Today I felt it was a little dry?? But still good. Saganaki - Also called salted cheese where our guest is from. This was good, but of course we would have preferred more cheese. Just being greedy. Gyro Platter - Two orders. My favorite and my usual, but as always, I was not able to finish. Gyro Wrap - Small. My daughter enjoyed it and finished it. Beef Souvlaki Wrap - Small. Our guest's favorite and she was able to finish. Atmosphere - Causal Greek cuisine. Replaced the former Pappo. Open 7 days a week from 11am to 9pm. Indoor/outdoor seating. Metered street parking, but if you are willing to walk an extra block or two, there is free street parking. Service - Good. Delivery by Grubhub, Uber Eats, and Doordash. Price - Approximately $95 + tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success with your recent expansion to Pappo and your 3 locations. I have been to 2 of your 3 locations and still have not visited your Martinez location. read more

Everything at Troy Greek Cuisine was incredibly fresh and absolutely delicious. The food was prepared beautifully, and you can really taste the quality in every bite. On top of that, the staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly. Easily one of the best Greek spots I've been to!I'll definitely be back! read more

Troy is fine? But between lack of good/warm service, generic ambiance and average food, I'm putting it at 3 stars. It's not bad, by any means and if your jonesing for Greek food, it works. The saganaki appetizer wasn't the flamed cheese in a cast iron pan but more charred cheese - a pass from me. I went with the the salmon platter which consisted of salmon, rice and vegetable. Although the restaurant was empty, the food tasted cold, however the salmon was good, the thick strips of grilled zucchini were cold and void of flavor. Overall, solid eats. I'd stick with the reasonably priced wraps and understand its more of a fast casual spot that happens to have a server. * Note: they have a gyro bloody mary that seems intriguing! read more

Troy - Greek Near Me - Alameda, California

I was in the bay area and was craving some Greek food so I looked around and found this place. They have a few locations, but I picked the one in Alameda since it was closer. As far as parking there is a parking lot close by and also Street parking. There is seating inside and they also have seating outside. There was just two people eating outside and the inside was empty. I found that kind of odd for a Sunday afternoon. I was expecting a bit more of decoration inside for it being a Greek restaurant as far as ambience. The only sound inside was coming from a TV showing a baseball game. I ordered the Gyros platter, Chicken Souvlaki Platter, and Greek fries. I was disappointed in the rice and the Gyros platter. Their lamb and beef tasted like it had been sitting for a while, and it did not have much of a good taste. What was really delicious was their grilled chicken. It had a very nice charbroiled taste. I was just disappointed in the fact that they give you only one kabab for the price that they're charging. The Greek fries were good. The fries were very crunchy and yummy. It just needed more garlic and Parmesan. I did try both of their hot sauce, a red one and also a green one the green one had a cilantro taste it was a mix of flavor but delicious. The other red sauce was spicy, but had a good taste. The server was super attentive and she did amazing hats off to her. read more

For the price that I paid extra for the chicken I have at least received half a pound of chicken. I only had 4 pieces of chicken on my salad. The Greek salad alone is $11 + $8 for chicken. I am pretty disappointed as a customer. read more

Troy is located in the former Pappo location in downtown Alameda. We've popped in a couple of times now for lunch. I recommend the chicken souvlaki wrap, and the tzatziki is a must. Lots of indoor seating, and an outside parklet. They are open throughout the day. One of these days we might try them for dinner. Service is nice and attentive, and prices are reasonable. A pretty solid choice for some Greek fare in Alameda! read more

It was sad to see Pappo go but Troy is a nice replacement for this spot. With a name like Troy your best guess would be a Greek restaurant and you would be correct. Greek is not my go to food but I do like it. We have been here for lunch a few times now. The tzatziki is great.  We split a chicken souvlaki, think chicken burrito with tzatziki, lettuce, tomato and grilled onions wrapped in pita, the bread not the acromym. There is a full bar decent beer list and wine. They open at 11 and stay open till 9 everyday. I hate it when places shut down for 2-3 hours during the day and thankfully they stay open the whole time. Another plus...service is quick. read more

Troy - First time here - Greek Near Me - Alameda, California

This is arguably the best Mediterranean food I have ever had. Most others over cook most of their meats. I had the Mediterranean plate. The chicken shawarma was absolutely perfect!!! Moist, tender and so tasty. Even the strips of gyros meat, that they served on top of my friend's Bloody Mary, were tender and tasty. Pita was fresh and hot out of the oven Our server was awesome. Sidewalk dining in front or in parklet made for great al fresco dining and ambience. Highly recommend. read more

Such a wonderful dining experience in beautiful Alameda. The night life & vitality here makes you feel so relaxed and at ease. With this being said, you can't be in a hurry when dining here, service can be a bit slow despite just 2 other guests at Troy on a Wed.evening. Orders: Grilled Salmon- fresh grilled salmon served with rice(but we substituted with more grilled vegetables, such a healthier accommodation) & grilled vegetables & a side of naan.Everything was fresh & flavorful, the fish was cooked to perfection. The warm naan was a welcoming side addition on this semi cold evening. Gyros platter- beef & lamb gyros,tzatziki sauce, rice & grilled vegetables. This nothing superb of excellence. The seasoning to the meat didn't leave me parched, so I was pleasantly surprised. The tzatziki sauce was incorporated with fresh cucumbers & the rice had a light fluff to it that was perfectly cooked. I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of both dishes & would without a doubt order these 2 dishes again. *Just note that parking can be difficult & you will need a lot of patience when ordering your food here. read more

Troy is a nice location to get some Greek food! party arrived at around 12:15pm and there were plenty of table. They also have some patio seating for those who enjoy looking outside and enjoying the weather when you sit! My party and I shared the Meza Platter appetizer. It consisted of hummus, pita, 2 falafels, and dolmas, olives, and feta cheese. I particularly enjoyed the hummus and the pita. The pita was warm and the hummus was fresh! In addition, I was pleasantly surprised by the falafels because they weren't dry and was nicely seasoned/flavored. I also shared the chicken souvlaki platter with a friend. It smelled so delicious when the server brought over our food! It consisted of chicken breast, rice, grilled vegetable, hummus, rice, hummus. The chicken may have been over seasoned to eat on its own imo, but paired nicely with the grilled zucchini and the rice, so I didn't mind. This was a great meal with plenty of food that could easily be shared! It's definitely worth a try if you're around! read more

Recently located to this new location which has a metered parking lot next door making it more convenient. I always get my favorite - Meza Platter which is an appetizer that feeds two. I usually ask to hold the Feta Cheese and they switch it out with two Dolmas, also my favorite. The platter comes with two Falafels, two dolmas, feta cheese, hummus, olives, melitzano, lettuce, and pita bread for dipping. Enough for one as an entree. Had a Greek Cherry Soda for the first time - think I'll pass on the Greek Sodas in the future. Was a bit tart for me. Good service, ample table spacing both inside and outside. read more

We both ordered Greek wraps. Both of our wraps had 90 percent lettuce and almost no meat. The meat that was there was thin and in small pieces. It was very weird. I've never had a wrap like that with almost no meat. We will not return. read more

This place made sense when they were a small walkup, and it was good. They moved to a new location, so maybe that's created some hiccups. We just ordered takeout via DoorDash. Even though I requested it, there were no utensils, or anything like that. No sauce. Falafel/gyro/chicken shawarma were super dry. A lot of bread - not a lot of other stuff inside. French fries used to be a really generous portion, so I only ordered one and I should've ordered three. 80 bucks for three sandwiches and one paltry order of fries. Maybe they changed owners or are trying to save money to pay for rent on the new place. read more

Hair on the bottom zucchini disgusting! read more

I love Greek gyros wraps, and Troy makes them really well. The wrap (bread part) is grilled and nicely chewy. They put lots of fresh lettuce and veggies in each wrap, and the Tzatziki sauce adds just the right amount of zing. Their meats are really tender and flavorful. I also love falafels, so whenever I go to a Greek place I always want to try one of their falafels. Well, Troy's is one of the best I've had. It was so light and crispy on the outside and very moist and fluffy on the inside. It was also a pretty good size. It was so good, I might go for a falafel wrap next time. What we ordered: + Lamb and beef gyros wrap (7 inch): Wow yummy. There were a couple slices of lamb/beef. + Chicken shawarma wrap (9 inch): Nice chunks of tender chicken. + Falafel: Order just 1 to try and it was so good. read more

My favorite place for gyros on the island! Troy's is where you go if you want casual authentic Greek food. We usually order the gyro wrap, gyro platter, falafel wrap, and eggplant salad. The eggplant salad is my favorite! The lamb is always tender and never dry. The hot sauce that comes with the wraps are fire, I prefer the green hot sauce ;) Staff is always friendly and efficient despite how busy they get. There's street parking and a public parking lot next to the restaurant. read more

Troy - Gyro Platter - Greek Near Me - Alameda, California

Food: 8/10 Portion size: medium Service: N/A (I did take out) Value: 8/10 My hubby and I got the gyro platter and chicken platter with the grilled vegetables. The gyro platter is super healthy because it comes with the cucumner salad and pita break versus the chicken platter comes with rice and pita bread. Don't get me wrong I love rice but it enough to share between the two of us. Both are very tasty and flavorful. The gyro platter was soft and tender. There was a unique balance in flavor when eating it with the cucumber tzatziki salad. The chicken platter was also good. The chicken wasn't dry, had good flavor and the Mediterranean rice was amazing! The portions were a good size for the price! Now with restaurants increasing prices peobbaky due to covid this one seems reasonable to be and tastes delicious! I will definitely come back to try more. The Mediterranean platter also sounds like a winner! read more
