I ordered via DoorDash and at first glance both pieces of moussaka looked very old - the eggplant was rock solid and the bechamel tasted sour. Upon further inspection, the ground beef was filled with cooked MAGGOTS. I've read other reviews stating that the moussaka is not made fresh - it sits on the counter for god knows how long and is reheated in a microwave. Avoid at all costs! read more

Troy has been one of our favorite places since we moved to Alameda. Although a bit cramped inside it does have seating outside... and that's where you'll find us most days. As I don't eat meat I usually order the Meza Platter. But yesterday was different. Troy has added Impossible meat to its menu and things skyrocketed to a whole new level. I've had plenty of Impossible Burgers but those are made for the American burger taste in mind whereas Troy uses the Impossible meat with a Middle East taste in mind. I had the Impossible Wrap and it is impossibly amazing! Next time I'll order the Impossible Platter. And, of course, we had Troy's basket of French Fries. Without a doubt they are the best fries ever... made to perfection with zero calories (that statement is not true but I can dream, right). For a town with a rather small population Alameda has a diverse selection of great ethnic restaurants which is pretty amazing when one considers we are located next to San Francisco and Oakland. read more

Love this place! Its small and easy to stop in annd grab a bite. I have been living on the falafels which are really made well and tasty! I also love the spanikopita and fries (of al things)...yummy! I am so happy to have this addition to the Alameda line up. read more

My wife and I stopped by to sample the fair and were pleasantly suprised. We have had Greek food many times in the past and Troy ranks up there with the best of them. The Greek fries were hot and fresh as well as awesome. The gyro was also really good. The sauce was perfect (to include the amount) and the amount if meat (including the taste) was great. Usually when a new Greek place pops up we try it and if you are in the mood stop on by. The place is small and offers little seating. There is only street parking available. read more

Tiny place, but great & generous food portions. All fresh & tasty. Perfect location for the pedestrian perusing Park St. The Troy Salad (Greek salad topped with Gyros meat) makes for a satisfying meal. Never disappointed. read more

Cute little place, nice staff, but mediocre appetizers. I ordered the dolmas and avgolemono soup. The dolmas were cold and did not contain the much-heralded beef (the way I like them-if I wanted cold dolmas I'd go to Cost Plus and pick up a tin). In addition, the grape leaves used for the dolmas would have benefitted from 1-2 more soakings to get rid of the harsh flavor. The avgolemono soup was thick with rice and egg, as it should be, but the lemon was overpowering. I suspect that the cook did not use chicken broth to prepare the rice; had he done so it would have balanced out the lemon nicely. The dolmas was served with about a cup of tsaziki but only two pita pieces - way too much sauce, too little pita. I'll stick to Athenian in Suisun and Petra in Orinda for fast Greek food. read more

The gyros are great - the meat is full of flavor, moist and thick. Other places serve their meat either too greasy or too dry. Also, friendly staff and great hot sauce. read more

The Moussaka is absolutely delightful. The eggplant, spices, cheese, and meat all blend wonderfully to create a beautiful symphony in my mouth. My friend ordered the small gyro with french fries and loved it! The space is limited, however we were able to find a table. The service was good, staff was helpful in providing suggestions and the food was served quickly. read more

Was in the mood for Wally's in Emeryville, but they were closed so we went here instead. Rice is decent, maybe a little too aldente. Chicken was a bit dry and not nearly as flavorful as D'yar in Berkeley. Hummus was good. Pitas were also fluffy and nice. Pretty good value for your money. I'd go again. read more

Love, love this place! Great food with such good flavors! The service is consistently (which is key) courteous and friendly. The location and restaurant is perfect for a quick enjoyable bite. Oh, and love their sauces!!! read more

I'm a big fan of their Gyros Platter. I usually get it to go with a side of dolmas. Top notch Greek Cuisine on the Island.

Always a good choice for greek/ Mediterranean food! They are quick and it's always on point.

I've only had their lamb gyro and falafal here. Both are really delicious but I think what makes it over the top is the garlicy green and red sauce they give you to go with it. It's so delicious. I wish I could buy or make this myself (if someone knows the receipe, let me know!). Also, I live in San Francisco, I haven't found a fast/delicious/inexpensive Greek place in the city. read more

Great Greek staples. Don't miss the salads. I always order in a large Gyro to go.

Been there done that!!! Awesome!!! Food always good!!! Didn't let the parking intimidate you!! Tiny place but tasty food!!

Amazing !!!!!!!! Fresh, so delicious, I have never left this place unsatisfied. The green sauce is a wonderful kicker if you like kick. I'm not a French fry fan but my friend ordered them and they were so good I may order them myself. read more

We really enjoy this place every much!! My 16 yr old loved it! He had the gyro and I had the kefta my wife had Lamb shawarma it was all amazing. We sat outside on a beautiful Alameda night out!! Propel walking the streets. It's really a nice feeling!! I gave it four stars because I'm very critical about middle Eastern food!! I grew up with a Palestinian FAM next door.. If you know anything about being neighbors and friends. Well your family.. So the food is good it's just I still have my Palestinian mom food on my mind and pallet!! Try it you'll like it it's good! read more

One of the best spots in Alameda. Food is fresh and delicious. Fantastic service and your food comes quick. If you havent been here you need to try it. Amazing gyros, shwarmas, greek fries, salads, hummus and tzatziki. read more

We love eating here with our kids! It's their favorite restaurant! The staff are always friendly. This is a great place for some fast, but tasty and healthy food. read more

Troy is a good stop to get a bite to eat before seeing a movie. Service is quick and the food is pretty good. The food is a bit pricey for what I'm used to for amount of greek food you get. My husband and I both got a gyro and an appetizer portion of the hummus with four pieces of pita bread, which all came out to be $20. Not bad, and a better choice than Daphnes. read more

5 stars for the Greek fries...hands down the best fries I've ever had. They are so simple, yet so great. It could be that they go amazingly well with their house sauces...both the red and green. The gyro is good....though not consistent. I sense it is either freshly prepared and delicous....or re-heated and a bit tough, depending on when you go. It probably has 6 tables, so definitely not suited for large groups. If you're in Alameda in craving Greek food.....this is the place you want to go, not the other Greek places a few doors down. read more

The best GYRO in a long time. During the first bite, I remembered how much I love pressed lamb/beef meat and tzatziki sauce! The lettuce was dark green likely red leaf lettuce or bib, the tomatoes were crisp and not mushy, and diced perfectly. The tzatziki sauce was fresh, cool, and just heavy enough! The server brought "hot sauce" to my table and although I didn't ask for it, I was so glad she did. What was that hot sauce? The gyro was perfection alone but, the hot sauce gave my taste buds a few moments more of gyro nirvana. read more

best Greek food in Alameda. They are stingy with their sauce to go, but no matters. Falafel gyros are amazing.

The staff are really nice and helpful. The service is fast and the food is great! Its a cute little place as well. I had falafel and it is very good, I would recommend it. But next time we go I am going to try something else. :) read more

I had two family members come visit me in Alameda and since I am new (all over again) to the island I told them to pick out a place that looked good and they chose Troy. We had dinner on a Thursday night at around 6:00pm and we were the first customers for the dinner rush. By the time we left all of the tables inside and one outside was occupied. I had the classic gyro with a side of fries and my family members each had a salad. I LOVED my gyro and I heard good things about the salads. This place is very small and cannot accommodate large groups (over four) very easily. That being said the food is great for the value. read more

Eats: Chicken Souvlaki - This dish is quite good, it has grilled tomato and eggplant with some coconut rice and their yogurt is tasty. Spanakopita - This was okay, not as cheesy and too many layers of the crust. Prefer a little thinner I also tried their red and green hot sauce, the green one is hotter than the red and it's quite spicy. Service: You order your food, you take your number and they deliver the food to you. Quick service Parking: Street parking and across the street is a theater, so it's good for a movie date. read more

I've eaten here frequently (10+) and always end up satisfied. Most of the time I get the small falafel (bread is undeniably fresh every single time) with red spicy sauce on the side. They have a green hot sauce as well but I lean to the red, I wish they would bottle it! I have also tried the chicken shwarma and various dinner plates, all good but the falafel is amazing! read more

Average Greek food. Hummus app took longer than expected. Eggplant salad only came with 1 slice of eggplant and 2 slices of zucchini. Should've been more. Polite customer service and tables outside was a plus. read more

Was a nice break from the rural east coast being from chicago it certainly wasnt the creme de la creme though its easy on the wallet and super good tasting meat grilled fresh and spiced modestly, the zatziki sauce was well prepared it was still chill to the tongue after being on the sandwhich for a minute and was packed with lots of tasty cucumber chunks. read more

Great cozy little place for Greek. My wife says yes anytime I mention this place as an option. We eat here anytime we feel like Greek which is often. Not exactly the type of place you bring a date but for my wife and I who like low key dinners this is a great spot. read more

Great tasting food although the portions are a bit small. We ordered the gyro plate with yummy side dressing and a gyro falafel. Both were good tasting..will return to try other parts of their menu. read more

Troy is a nice little Mediterranean restaurant tucked away across from the Alameda movie theater. Their menu is nice and small, food comes out fresh made to order. The only downside would be the size of the place is pretty small, so harder have more than 2 people eating together. They're pretty quick with service so good for take out too. Definitely a nice variety and not pricey at all. read more

We have been going here for years... Flatbread has gotten thin and tough and where are the thick fries with the seasoning?? I had to stick the gyro in the microwave to soften the bread. It just used to break up in your mouth w it's buttery goodness. This is one of my favorite place to eat. Hopefully someone from the restaurant is reading this and make improvements as I am sad and disappointed! read more

My cousins and I were craving fries so we decided to come to troy. We got 2 togo fries and they were delicious! Better than most fries out there, so it's understandable that it cost more,but it's not too expensive. 4 stars because they forgot to put in ketchup when they usually do. read more

This small portion of food cost me $9!!! When I realized that this was not enough food & went back in to order a side of hummus they wouldn't accept my debit card for a $4.95 purchase, & said it had to be $5 to use my card (even after just purchasing $25 worth of food that was not enough to fill 2 people), they proceeded to ask me if I wanted extra pita instead of just charging me $4.95, so I just said forget it I will never eat here again. The salad looks larger in the picture, than it really is @ about 4 ounces. The spanokopita were 2 small triangle 1" x 2" large. Don't get me wrong, the food was tasty, so if you are accustomed to overpaying for food then this is your place. read more

Troy - Portions too small!!! Too pricey!!! - Greek Near Me - Alameda, California

Greek fast-food at it's finest. Everything was perfectly cooked and had great flavor. My only kvetch is that the portions were not bigger. I will be back. read more

Always good. Reliable and delicious. Good prices and nice to be able to sit outside when it's nice outside.

I've been here several times and have been impressed with the food and service every time. It's a no frills place where you order at the counter before finding a seat to wait for your food. The food always comes out quickly and is delicious. I particularly like the dressing on the Greek salad. Yum! The service is actually very good and attentive too. read more

Delicious falafel with fresh, doughy pita. What more could you ask for?

This place is great! Super tasty Greek food at a decent price. A friend and I stumbled upon this place when I first moved to Alameda and loved it. I'd gotten the Pastitsio (like a Greek version of lasagna) and she got the Moussaka. Both of us loved it. Last night wanted a quick meal before a movie and got the delicious Chicken Souvlaki . The deliciously roasted chicken came with wonderfully roasted vegetables, rice pilaf and Tzatziki with pita. At first I thought the portion of chicken was small, but it was quite filling. Great location directly across the street from the Alameda Theatre. Small area to eat, but they do have some outside seating and they do take out! Highly recommend. read more
