Greek Restaurants in Santa Cruz

“Achilles is by far the best Mediterranean food I’ve tasted and what makes it so much better is the customer service that surrounds you. I work for a veteran nonprofit, and I chose Achilles by the sea for a food option. The owner Elias personally reached out to me, and I have never ever received such kindness and support that I received from him. He is such a great guy, and the food that he prepares for his customers is beyond, amazing. I cannot explain how grateful we are for the support of Achilles. The veterans were so grateful and they all complemented on how great the dinner was. So, on behalf of Operation Surf, we want to highlight Achilles by the sea, and the amazing staff that supported our Veterans, staff and volunteers alike. Thank you again and I highly recommend you trying this restaurant, you will not be disappointed.“

“I ordered the Souvlaki chicken gyro bowl and it was fantastic! I am gluten-free and everything in the bowl was safe. The bowl is half yellow rice and half lettuce with chunks of red onion, tomatoes and cucumber, then topped with a super yummy sauce! I went inside for a pick up and it is very nice and clean. The staff was also very friendly! I asked if there was any flour or gluten in their french fries and there is not. However, they do share a fryer with gluten/wheat items so if you are sensitive to cross-contamination, that is not a good option. I will be coming back for sure!“
