This place is a true gem. The owner came to our table and chatted with us for a long time. This is homestyle Greek cooking. Made to order. Made with love. Don't think twice. Go!

This is one of my bf and my's favorite little cafe's, serving up delicious and authentic Greek specialties. Today we had my favorite - the Beef Moussaka (eggplant layered with beef in sauce, topped with bechamel) served with roasted potatoes and vegetables, and an excellent Greek Salad. We often get their flatbread stuffed sandwiches. Prices are reasonable at $25 for the moussaka dinner (I took home half) and $8. for the salad. Easy parking in their lot. The gentleman who often serves us is very friendly. As everything is made to order, this is not a place to come if you want "fast casual" because it takes awhile to receive your food, but it will be served hot and perfectly made. Great for take out and family meals.

Nancy's greek cafe has amazing food! All freshly prepared. Their tabouli is my favorite. We have been going to this restaurant for several years now and the food never disappoints! Highly recommend.

A slightly hidden away gem with terrific fresh delicious food, plentiful portions, friendly service and fair prices. Ordered delivery many times but even better in person when you can eat the carefully prepared dishes fresh and hot. Comfortable, quiet - a rarity these days. Try the shrimp kabobs, gyro, greek salad. A place where your business is appreciated.

I believe the restaurant is going through a renovation, so things are alittle all over the place. However, the food is PHENOMENAL! Service was great as I connected to the chef being Greek (as am I), and the ambiance was par. Overall, if you are in the mood for Greek goodness, head on over!

My husband and I work from home and decided to grab a late lunch together. The few usual local places were all closed so we decided to try something new. What a wonderful experience we just had at Nancy's Greek Cafe!!!!! The food was some of the best we have had in years, such fresh and authentic ingredients. The place is beautiful with newly painted Greek murals and beautiful plants etc., the owner was so friendly and kind! This place is our new go to for sure!! What a gem for the community! Make sure you go!!

Delicious food and attentive service! Highly recommend to anyone in the area. Everything was a 10/10. The gyro was fresh and the veggies on it were vibrant. The bbq shrimp (grilled) are my favorite, cooked perfectly and a large portion. My family also loved the pastitsio, lentil soup, & gigantes. The freshly made coffee is good and strong. We've eaten at restaurant and also ordered takeout and food has been consistent either way. Seating area can fit a large group and there was an outdoor seating area too. Easy parking with lots of space.

My husband and I love the Greek food here! My sister is half Greek so I have tried her home cooked food, and I can say that this is very authentic. Even something as simple as the lentil salad is amazing- so fresh and so much flavor! We were introduced to this restaurant because we ordered our wedding cake here (vendor for our venue) & I'm so happy because we discovered one of our new favorite restaurants!

Me and my family did not enjoy the food here. Nothing tasted fresh, it all tasted pretty stale starting with the pita bread that went with the hummus. The marinated chicken kabob was super dry and tasteless. The vegetables that come with the entree seemed to be cooked in lemon which was gross. We spent $89 here and were super dissatisfied. On top of that the service here is extremely slow, we waited 45 mins for our "dine in" food.

The food was delicious and the service was great! The restaurant was very cozy and gives off hole in the wall vibes.

The food here is so fresh and authentically Greek! This is an Altadena gem. The service is wonderful and I feel so taken care of here. The flavors are incredible. You must try this place. It's also great for takeout!! I'd share pics of my food but I devoured it.

I can’t believe this place has a 4.4 review score because it’s probably the WORST place I’ve ever eaten at. So much so I felt the need to give a review. I got the chicken souvlaki plate and the chicken was the worst tasting chicken I’ve ever had. It literally tasted like dirty old olives. I am Greek and this was NOT Greek food. This is a disgrace to my culture calling this Greek food it was TRASH. never eat here!!!
