Greek Express: Reviews & Ratings
Chicken orzo soup is so good that it not only will relieve your cold or flu symptoms, but I suspect it can cure cancer. Delicious! Gyro was very nicely constructed with fresh ingredients in the right proportions. Gyro meat was a bit too salty today but not usually so.
The food was great. Pastries looked amazing, but I didn't try them this time. I appreciated various sizes of gyros--small made a lunch that satisfied me all afternoon. Service was especially friendly.
Came here today for lunch. Sat outside on the nice patio. Really good food and really quick too. Easily spent only $10 for lunch
It doesn't matter if you are starving or just a little hungry...The food is so good here. I love the teriyaki gyro with a side of the house sauce for the fries + a chocolate chip baklava. The fries are the best fries I've ever had in my life. The seasoning they use. The ingredients they use are all so fresh. I was skeptical about trying the calamari from a fast food restaurant but it was amazing as well. I did like their original calamari the most but the new one is just as good! Super friendly staff and always clean inside 10/10 would recommend
Good food fresh, great servings for the money, service and ambiance is as expected from a Greek restaurant. Definitely recommend this place.
I've driven by this place so many times I've lost count but for some reason I always passed it up. That is up until recently when I had a craving for Greek food and I noticed they offered delivery. Ding ding - here's my chance! I ordered a falafel Greek salad with a side of rice and some hummus and pita, all which were tasty. The hummus was creamy and flavorful and definitely hit the spot. I also very much appreciated the tzatziki that came with my salad, it was just what my falafel needed. I ended up eating every bite and had extra hummus and pita to enjoy a little later. Next time the craving comes on, I'll head straight back.
This is a cute place in columbus, with good gyros. The pita was good and warm. The hummus was okay. The dormathes were okay. The tiramisu was given to me frozen so I couldn't eat it, but once it thawed it was really good. It was annoying to wait 30 minutes for it to thaw but oh well. I loved the gyro I do recommend that.
This was my not first visit here, maybe 3-4th. Honestly was really impressed today, maybe it just hit the right spot and I was kind of starving. But got me the kids mini Gyro with the rice pilaf and a drink for $6! Deff seems like a good price and was still more food than I could finish, so would recommend for smaller eaters. I'd never had the rice pilaf, and at first glance it seemed like it could be dry and bland, but it was quite the opposite. I found it to be nice and flavorful and moist. Deff a pleasant surprise and something I was happy to eat by the spoonfuls. The kids mini gyro is still a good size, the bread was a bit crispy in some spots, lots of meat, good amount of sauce and a little lettuce to top it off. Overall a great Greek fast food option thats a good price, tasty food, and really quick service.
