15 Best Greek Restaurants near Marina Del Rey

“Been quite a regular to the place given it’s distance to me, and even got it multiple times for meals for bigger groups. I always did pre order by the app especially bigger orders did take time here given they prepped it fresh.

I love how their gyros were always tasty and the portion was generous. I typically went for either chicken or beef, and added extra ‘treats’ of falafel. The meat was always fresh and tender and even the sides like hummus was pleasant.

I have been knowing they do have soft serve but haven’t had a chance to try it until last week when I was craving for froyo and remembered they did sell it and was super close to reach. I then discovered that they recently launched Dubai chocolate topping, which was melted chocolate coating, with pistachio spread and kataifi pastries along with pistachio crumbs. Having it for first time, I was surprised by how gigantic it was. Gladly the greek yogurt wasn’t overly milky so it felt lighter and I’d say the toppings were generously served. This particular one was priced higher than both the plain and the one topped with honey and baklava. It was pretty delighting but I would recommend sharing or you likely wouldn’t finish it in one sitting.“

“Everything about this place is excellent. The food is flavorful and clearly made with care, the service is kind and attentive, and the atmosphere is both elegant and inviting. A wonderful dining experience every time!“

“My husband and I always come here for Sunday brunch after the farmers market. We never make a reservation, but if you get there at 11 you can usually get a table. The BBQ is delicious, there is always fun music playing, and all of the staff is so nice and attentive. We especially love our usual servers Michael and Brianna! It has become our Sunday ritual :)“

“Sublime choice for my birthday. Between my husband and myself, we had the avgolemono soup (velvety smooth), grilled octopus (tender and tasty) zucchini chips (perfectly crisp) lamb chops (4 appetizer-size because I was getting full by then) moussaka, and baklava for dessert. Wine and martinis. Not inexpensive, but worth every cent for the experience. I highly recommend Louka for the vibe, service, and certainly the delicious meals.“

“Literally my favorite place in the area to get take out from. The veggies are fresh, the hummus is creamy and flavorful, the falafel is never dry, and the brisket practically melts in your mouth. I wish I could get a cookbook to learn their secrets.“

“The owners, food and atmosphere! Very convenient to airport and walking distance from rental cars and hotels, Great place to eat“

“Great Pita! It’s homemade!“

“Nick the Greek is hands-down one of the best spots to take hungry college kids when they need a hearty, satisfying meal that doesn’t break the bank. The portions are generous, the food is fresh, and the flavors feel like comfort food with a Mediterranean twist.

The menu is full of options, from classic gyros and souvlaki to falafel and bowls piled high with rice, meat, and veggies. Everything is made fast but tastes like it took hours, which is perfect for students on tight schedules (and even tighter budgets). The fries with feta and garlic are always a crowd favorite, and the baklava makes the perfect sweet finish.

The atmosphere is casual and welcoming—great for grabbing a quick bite between classes or sitting down with friends after a long day. Plus, it’s a place where picky eaters and adventurous foodies alike can find something to enjoy.

If you’ve got college kids with big appetites, Nick the Greek will fill them up without emptying your wallet. It’s flavorful, affordable, and always hits the spot.“

“This is one of our MUST GO TO RESTAURANT when we come to Los Angeles. Food is very delicious, good portion and environment is so chill. The hockey game always plays on TV with photos of Kings made it special. It just takes a minute to walk out to the Hermosa Beach to enjoy the Sunshine.“

“Loved the ambiance, service was great, friendly, welcoming and yummy fish✨“

“I’ve seen this place since 2017 but never decided to eat here once I found out it was a Greek restaurant (at that point I thought they just served chopped up grilled chicken on top of bowls of salads with olives) but boy was I wrong.
The service is as good as the food, both magnificent. I finally came here because of LATryGuy on YouTube review in one of his YouTube channel shorts and when I saw the chicken I said “OH it’s like Dino’s Greek style chicken with the seasoning and lemon juice on the bed of fries at Dino’s restaurant) I tried both types of lemon garlic chicken meals at Maisons so far the regular and spicy (which it’s actually not that spicy at all) and they were good. The gyro is good too, I’m just disappointed they have not re-upped on the LEGENDARY LAMB CHOPS for months after the review. Next I have to try the shrimp pasta like LA TRY Guy reviewed he said it was a 10/10 for everything.“
