Greek Restaurants near Stanford

“Definitely one of the better locations to grab a quick sandwich or meal on campus. This location is a bit hard to find and not well advertised. If you enter the quad main entrance, follow the diagonal path to the left and pass under the two arches the path leads to, then Olives will be on your left. Plenty of outdoor seating here and usually not too long of a wait. The sandwiches are worth it, salmon is not. Most come with a salad too!“

“I would tell you how great the food and service was, and how much we enjoyed the evening, but I don't want to make reservations harder to get as we are returning! Not only great meat and seafood, but wonderful vegetarian dishes. And desserts were over the top!“

“Great food and service! We went with some friends and the owners gave us samples of their delicious dips with pita bread. The spitfire chicken salad bowl was delicious. We had kalamari steaks and falafel too. Very delicious. We will definitely be back. Reasonably priced good food.“

“How have I not tried this place yet??? Went there for lunch with a friend on Monday. I love Greek food and always up to try a new spot. Pylos was wonderful! For lunch I had the seafood souvlaki which was delicious. Nice big shrimp and pieces of salmon in a warm, fresh pita with just the right amount of tzatziki sauce. Comes with a salad and they were kind enough to out the dressing on the side. My friend had one of the gyro wraps and she loved it. They also have Greek French fries which I have heard are amazing. Unfortunately, my current eating plan does not include them but there is always a next time! Service was very friendly and prompt. They have a nice inside restaurant and a great outside setup with heat lamps. Yay! Hubby loves Greek too so we will definitely be back (I'm going to steal his fries ).“

“Vegetarian / vegan wrap perfect for Good Friday. The Turkish double espresso was delicious and not gross like the bitter American roasters. I got fries, but did not realize lentil soup is on the menu. Next time. Operated by family, doesn’t get better than that.Dietary restrictions: Halal“

“Absolutely phenomenal experience at Greek Kitchen! From the moment we stepped in, the ambiance transported us to the Mediterranean coast. The attention to detail in decor, combined with the tantalizing aroma of authentic Greek cuisine, set the stage for an unforgettable dining adventure. Each dish was a masterpiece, bursting with fresh flavors and expertly crafted to perfection. The staff were incredibly warm and attentive, ensuring every need was met with a smile. A true gem in the culinary world, Greek Kitchen has earned its place as a must-visit destination for anyone craving an authentic taste of Greece. Highly recommended!“

“Dropped in on a whim, wasn’t sure what to order. The owner offered some free samples. The lamb is amazing! Some of the best I’ve ever had. He made me a lamb gyro that was 10/10. My son and I were very impressed with the service and food. We Will be dropping by again. Thank you!“

“You can't get better than this. The place is super clean. Easy parking. Friendly lady at the counter. And the Gyro I ordered was the best I've ever had. AMAZING! I ordered the Super Gyro. Omg. So delicious!!! Added... Greek fries are wonderful! But my gyro on a Monday evening was dry... the meat also tasted left over/ not fresh... and crazy salty. Won't change my 5 star rating based on this, unless this happens again.Vegetarian options: Great falafel for vegetariansParking: Plenty of free parkingWheelchair accessibility: Yep... it is.“

“This place looks like an old fashioned diner. The food was great and service was quick. I loved the fries. They’re the thick cut fries (but not steak fries) and they’re crispy, not soggy. They also offer local sodas! I’d definitely come back!Vegetarian options: My nephew is vegetarian and came here specifically to get their garden burger with fries.“

“I had the salmon wrap and it had salmon in almost every bite. Loaded with veggies and came with a small side salad. The dressing on the salad was so good I asked for more to put on my wrap. I will drive 20 min just for this wrap so please don’t change a thing. The manager was super nice. Thanks for a great meal!“

“Came into Nick the Greek before a movie at the RWC Cinemark. I frequently get takeout from here and they nail it every single time. The food is even better in person; it comes out within minutes, and its piping hot. This gyro bowl was no different, coming with a healthy portion of beef/lamb on a bed of rice, accompanied with tomatoes, lettuce, and tatziki. The flavors worked together so well, with the sauce providing a rich creamy flavor that goes well with the slight saltiness of the beef/lamb. The lettuce provided a solid crunch, the rice was fluffy, and the tomatoes were crisp yet soft. Another thing I really enjoy about Nick the Greek is that the food is surprisingly light: after eating, I was full, but not stuffed.If you've in the mood for some high-quality, fast-casual Greek food, make sure to check this place out!“

“Hands down to the new Greek spot in Los Altos! If you are craving for a heavenly tasty high quality food, this is the right address. Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. Moreover, the ambiance is just so Instagram-worthy. Each picture you take here would look stunning on social media, from the food images to the overall setting. Overall, great job, and the place is a must-visit!“

“I recently dined at Hella, a Mediterranean gem, and was thoroughly impressed! The combo plate I ordered was delicious, offering a variety of flavors that were both authentic and perfectly seasoned. My sister enjoyed a tasty chicken gyro, which was juicy and flavorful. The highlight of our visit was the exceptional customer service, particularly from the manager who surprised us with complimentary rice pudding. It was a delightful treat that perfectly ended our meal. I highly recommend Hella for anyone looking to enjoy quality Mediterranean cuisine and outstanding service. A definite five-star experience!“

“The only “negative” is I think it’s slightly expensive for what it is- but we do live in Silicon Valley so I suppose that has to be somewhat expected. Other than that, the food is good, is made relatively quickly, and staff have always been nice.“

“Save room for dessert; you won't want to miss it! The baklava was a sweet symphony of layers, dripping with honey and nuts. The loukoumades were heavenly pillows of fried dough, drizzled with syrup and sprinkled with cinnamon. These desserts were the perfect sweet ending to an unforgettable Greek feast.“

“Delicious authentic Greek restaurant. Must visit if you are in the Bay area. This beautiful small place gives a nice authentic Mediterranean vibe. Lovely settings and smart choice of cutlery and serving dishes. Food menu serves everyone's palette with healthy options for veg and non vegetarian guests. Grilled prawns, chicken and lamb are out of the world choices by itself or with salads. Decent portion of choices make a perfect meal. Greek salad is simple combination of fresh tomatoes and feta cheese served with vinaigrette olive oil topped with herbs that give transport you to a Mediterranean islandEnjoyed business lunch but will be visiting here to try more dishes and will write more details. Can't wait to visit this place again soon.Vegetarian options: Decent options for vegetarians. Salads and pita breads with hummus and eggplant dipsParking: Street parking but usually packed during lunch hours.“

“The food was delicious. My daughter loved it. Service is quick and friendly. The people working there are always friendly and attentive. It is a nice location but it's hard to hear like most locations. There is outdoor dining if you like. I do recommend this place for the food and service.Vegetarian options: There are clear options for vegetarian diets.“

“Delicious Greek food and quick service!I'm convinced that Nick the Greek never misses: I've been to this location twice and the Redwood City location multiple times, and the food is always fast, the employees are nice, and the service is always speedy. Nick the Greek is a restaurant group that really cares about quality.I ordered the lamb/beef gyro plate today, which I've never had before. It was ready within minutes, and came with a smorgasbord of food: lamb/beef, rice or fries (I chose rice), tatziki, tomatoes, onions, pita bread, and a side Greek salad (lettuce, olives, onions, tomatoes, and feta). I also got a side order of falafel to share my brother.The lamb/beef was warm and juicy and the rice was warm and fluffy. The tomatoes and onions added a sweet flavor that cut through the saltiness of the meat, and the tatziki was cooling and zesty. The pita bread acted as a nice palette cleanser in between bites of everything else on the plate.The Greek side salad was refreshing. The tomatoes were juicy, the lettuce was crisp and wet, and the feta and olives on top had great contrasting flavors (creamy and salty). I would get less onions next time, though, because their flavor was a bit overpowering.I barely even got to the falafel on account of how full I was from everything else, but the one piece I had was awesome: a crispy exterior and a warm, soft interior.If you're in downtown San Mateo, come and get some great Greek food at Nick the Greek!“
