    In response to the Kristina S. and Ali S's review: A few weeks ago, I was enjoying one of the many delicious meals I have had at this lovely family owned business with my 7 year old daughter when I noticed the teenage waitress taking multiple calls from the same person. From the waitresses response it was clear the person asked to speak to the owner, who the waitress explained was not in but that she would take a message. They kept calling back and harassing this young girl who was maturely explaining that she would pass along their message. I could hear them on the other line at this point threatening the waitress saying they would leave bad google reviews if the owner did not call them right away. I am very sorry these ladies did not enjoy their food and did not wish to pay $2 for an item they wished to add to their order but you are not entitled to continually contact a business when they’ve answered you. You are not entitled to be contacted immediately and you are not entitled to harass a place of business. My 7 year old and I were embarrassed by your behavior toward the young lady. Clearly you did not enjoy your experience, so don’t go back. I am happy to go there instead and enjoy the delicious meals I always have that are homemade and fresh. Grecian Corner is not only our favorite place to go, but we use them for catering as well. Bravo to the young lady for enduring bad behavior from adults and bravo to GCC for keeping up with a high quality standard. Support your local businesses, people!

    Ordered from here last night- ordered a chickpea burger for my vegan mom and they gave her a chicken burger instead. Didn't realize until the first bite. The receipt confirms we ordered chickpea, but it looks like there was a miscommunication. Very disappointed, will not be ordering from here again.

    If you are looking for a Greek restaurant that is conveniently located, family owned and has a menu that's sure to please. . . then Grecian Corner Cafe is your place. They aim to please whether you are dining in or doing take out. It's a cozy spot to meet and eat with family and friends.

    Walked in with my son looking to grab a quick bite to eat and immediately felt at home with the warm ambiance! This place is so quaint and cozy and I got lost looking through the endless menu options! Everything on the menu was making my mouth water so after narrowing down my order to “The Hera” and hummus, me and my son sat down to eat and WOW was I blown away with how delicious the food was!!!!!!! Perfectly seasoned and presented, I absolutely cannot wait to go back! Even the pita was unbelievable and soooooo soft and perfectly warm! I cannot wait to try the rest of the menu as well as dessert!!!!! Wish we lived closer as I think this place would quickly become a second home💛 On top of that, the owners are angels and probably the sweetest humans I have ever met. Not sure why there could be even one negative review. I think in some situations, politics get in the way of honesty, but please don’t let strangers unjust opinions get in the way of a wonderful experience and amazing Greek food! You’re welcome ;)☀️🌿🥗🍆🥑🍋🍇🥒🫒🍽️🫑

    If I could I would love to leave no stars!!! Got food POISONING from a hamburger. Must have been a good week old worth of chop meat. Waitress never came over to check on us for the duration of our dinner so I could not send it back. Left over half of it on the plate!!! The Waitress who never came over finally cleared our table after we asked her and she never asked why I didn't eat my food. She was terrible!!! The restaurant is dirty and the tables your arms will stick to because they have not been cleaned in years. You can't even look out the windows because they are so dirty. So if you want a good Greek Restaurant don't go here and I know good Restaurants!!! Also if you leave a bad review the OWNER will answer it with a snotty answer such as you were mean to the waitress or something else. Just look at the other low rating reviews you will see what I am talking about. They are not very professional.

    Came across this resturant while searching for Greek dining I'm so glad we decided on this family run resturant. We enjoyed a memorable meal here. Staff is genuine and friendly. The owner personally came over to us to ensure everything was to our satisfaction. We traveled a distance but was well worth it!

    This place was an extreme disappointment from the beginning. From placing my order to my first and last bite. The food was tasteless, poor quality, dry and disgusting at best. The owner has a horrible attitude and shows total malcontent for everything. I called a several times to rectify the issue with my very expensive order and nothing. She won't return my call or get on the phone. This is not how you treat a paying customer unless you know you are in the wrong. What a shame. Save your money the food is not worth the price and lack of customer service you get. GO ELSE WHERE!

    CURRENT REVIEW 2022- Where do I start, the reviews on this are very old because it is not the case anymore. I asked for an extra white sauce and was told I was going to be charged $2.25 for an extra white sauce with my gyro. After spending literally $100 in the place Katerina patronizingly says to me “if I have to pay for it, you have to pay for it “ I don’t even know what that’s supposed to mean. On top of that the food wasn’t even that good, the fries were horrible , my daughters chicken nuggets were disgusting the lemon potatoes were inedible and the burger was dry. There is Greek place on every corner in this town and there’s no reason why anyone should pick this one. It is overpriced and overrated, and it doesn’t look clean at all. I don’t normally go out of my way to leave a bad review because I know sometimes things happen but with this place there were just too many strikes against them. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. Go down the road to Huntington Station and take your choice of about 4 Greek places that are actually worth it. IN RESPONSE TO THIS OWNER: Just so you know I had two orders that were paid with different credit cards but together added up to $100. So I was in fact being very truthful. And the rest of my review is completely accurate based on how rude you were in your response instead of just making good and moving on. And it was not a threat when I said I wouldn’t come back it was a fact. Good luck.

    We are so fortunate to have this family owned restaurant just a few minutes from home. Food is stunning, Cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. Try the stuffed chicken. Love this place!

    Thought I would give it a shot and it's a big NOPE! The food was terrible. I started by tasting a fry. It was like a month old. It was down hill from there. I can’t imagine they will be there much longer unless they own the building.

    It may look like your average neighborhood greek place, but Grecian Corner Cafe is anything but! I first stopped in probably over a year ago with my husband and son on a random weeknight and were immediately greeted by the owner and staff. We quickly realized that despite its small size, the experience in general is nothing but small. My family took a table and instantly were taken care of by THE sweetest woman (we later come to find out she's the owner). I'm basic so I just ordered the chicken gyro plate, my husband ordered a falafel sandwich (with a million requests on how to make it just the way he likes it) and my son ordered a plethora of side dishes. Our meals were served quickly and hot and all together and once we dug in, we were hooked for life. I don't know what kind of witchcraft they use behind the kitchen but the magic that is their hummus and salad dressing is like an experience all on its own. (PLEASE do yourself a favor and order the hummus plate.....you will NOT be disappointed). The chicken gyro was truly the best I've ever had (and I lived with a Greek/Greek restaurant owner for 4 Years so I have a keen sense of this stuff) and my husband literally dreams of their falafel on the regular. Like I said, even the plain salad with their dressing had me stopping in randomly just to get a quick late lunch. From the appetizers to the array of delicious dinner options all the way to their dessert menu and drinks, you truly cannot go wrong with this place. It is a diamond in the rough and it has become our regular place with everyone who works there our second family. I wish I had pics to post but my family and I eat the food faster than I can even take out my phone. Give this place a try, you won't regret it!

    Totally legit and modernized Mediterranean food! Must try the stuffed avocado with feta and shrimp. The salad dressing is bomb! Stuffed tomatoes were off the hook! I wish I lived closer.

    We LOVE grecian corner! It was the first restaurant we ate at when we moved into the neighborhood last year and frankly, its the best greek food in town. The sangria is arguably the best I EVER HAD and is a must try. All the food that wifey and I ordered thus far has been really fantastic, and the people there remind you exactly what is so precious about small businesses! Thank you for making us feel welcome to the neighborhood!
