Nancy's Greek Cafe

The restaurant is located next door to the burnt down Bunny Museum. We arrived after walking from the Christmas Lane tree ceremony. I was surprised that the restaurant was empty for dinner but the owner was stating since the street was closed off nobody could get through in their cars. I ordered the Gyro sandwich and the lentil soup. The sandwich was big and it was more than enough food to fill me up. My other half stated the lentil soup was probably one of the best she has ever tasted. While we waited for our food the restaurant started getting packed with customers.

The service was good, and food was delicious and plentiful. The owner was friendly and praised his hard working staff.

We will tell others about this restaurant and will return ourselves.

The food was delicious. They clearly are short servers, and service was a bit uneven, but it was friendly and helpful. Nice to see an Altadena restaurant thriving. It was very busy.

The food was very good, however I was overcharged. $58 for Mousaka, salad and a 1/2 inch slice of cake ... a little too much for what I got.

The Mousaka and Greek Salad were excellent. However, it was a little pricey for what I got.

We really like this little bistro. The food was great and authentic; the service prompt and unobtrusive. I had leg of lamb, served in a delicious sauce. Prices are great.

Shawn and company made us feel like part of the family. Nancy, most of their employees and their clientele lost their homes in the Eaton fire earlier this year. The bakery has shut down temporarily because of the circumstances. Help them get back on their feet and support local business! Altadena Strong!

Thanks for the lovely meal and kindness. See you again soon!

What a lovely spot, but the FOOD! Owner is incredibly friendly and each item was made extremely fresh. Also: this spot is as close to the devastating Eaton Fire as it gets. Definitely worth your support

This Greek Cafe is an institution in Altadena! Made with love the menu offers authentic Greek flavors. The owner and his staff are attentive and so pleasant. The entrees are delish, my kids love the Souvlaki Chicken and the Lule is flavorful both served with fluffy rice. The creamy chicken soup is the definition of comfort with the right amount of lemon taste. I was so incredibly happy to know they are open again having survived the Eaton fire.
