Expensive, and terrible food. We're familiar with Greek & Mediterranean foods... and this wasn't it. Hummus was the only edible dish. My chicken shawarma gyro was awful... dark meat that had to be drumstick due to taste and cartilage pieces. My lunchmate's chicken souvlaki was just as bad. The last straw was very uncomfortable seating and sticky tables.

Ordered chicken Shawarma wrap. Filled with some pieces of dark meat, lots of hunks of fat/ chicken skin, cartilage, tendons. Yuk.

Crazy Greek Restaurant on Bell and 7th is truly a hidden treasure for anyone who enjoys authentic Greek and Mediterranean food. Whether you are a vegetarian searching for a healthy meal or simply looking for a satisfying bite, this spot delivers. It’s set up like a fast-casual restaurant, but with the warmth and hospitality of a family kitchen.

From the moment I walked in, I felt the family-friendly atmosphere. A playful five-year-old (a guest of a dining family, not an employee) greeted me at the door with a smile, which instantly showed the kind of community vibe this place has. After that laughable and heartwarming moment, I was warmly welcomed at the counter by two friendly young ladies who took the time to explain the menu and answered my questions with patience.

The menu offers a wide variety of Mediterranean favorites. You’ll find classics like gyros, Greek salads, falafel, hummus, dolmas (stuffed grape leaves), and pita with tzatziki. For something heartier, there are lamb and chicken platters served with rice and vegetables, as well as crispy fries and spanakopita (spinach pie). My companion and I ordered Greek salads, fries, and a gyro. The food arrived hot, fresh, and flavorful—the salads were crisp and refreshing, and the gyro was deliciously seasoned and wrapped perfectly in warm pita.

The restaurant itself is spacious, with both indoor and outdoor seating. The interior is clean, with flat-screen TVs for watching sports, while the patio seating sits near a beautiful fountain, making it a relaxing spot to enjoy your meal. The restrooms were also spotless, which speaks to the overall cleanliness and care put into the establishment.

It’s easy to miss this gem tucked behind Safeway, but it’s absolutely worth seeking out. Highly recommended for anyone craving genuine, wholesome Greek food in a welcoming, family-friendly environment. Off 7th Street and Bell

Mediterranean food is my favorite. Do yourself a favor and don’t go here.
The food was overcooked and tasted like it was left out for hours. The staff couldn’t even tell me what soubovki meant. Or even describe what it tasted like.
They were out of anything, Shawarma
Tables were sticky. I should’ve known I owe a terrible place when it was 5 o’clock, which is a normal time to eat and nobody was in here.

The Domas were so cheap. I didn’t trust them.

The food was decent, but nothing that really stood out. We came in for lunch and were surprised at the price — $46 for two people without any drinks felt steep for what we got. The portions were very large, which some might appreciate, but it didn’t quite make up for the lack of value. Service was okay, not rude but definitely not warm or friendly either. Overall, it wasn’t a bad experience, just not memorable. Not sure we’d come back.

The falafel was too bready with little flavor beyond overused oil. Maybe two stars is too generous.

I'll start off with that they did change their name, so yes, it's the right place.
Walking into a completely empty restaurant on a Saturday was weird but the food was really good!
Someone's earlier comment said a Gyro was $21? They are not, they range from $7-$11 depending on size. The girl at the counter was nice and answered our questions. Plus, you get a discount if you use cash!

The place is cute but slightly hidden in the shopping complex. Inside is clean and staff are friendly. Portions are large but for the price they should be.

We ordered two gyro pitas ($9 each) and made them combos (side of fries and rice, $5 each and drink). Whole meal ran a little over $30 bucks.

Again, large portions with a whole basket of fries and plate of rice. Lots of meat in the pitas. The gyro meat was very salty, hard to enjoy. The fries were were nothing special. The rice was disappointing. The flavor was off and hard to eat but salvagable if taken home and doctored.

Overall, not a great experience considering price and quality. Large portions and nice place help but not likely to return as there is better stuff nearby.
