21 Best Greek Restaurants near Itasca

“Great food with a lot of variety. Beautiful decor and ambiance. Professional staff. One of my favorite places to eat.“

“I’ve been to Greece four different times, and I can tell you right now — Greek Islands gets as close to authentic Greek food as you can possibly get without boarding a flight to Athens.

The food was simply amazing. The chicken kebabs were perfectly seasoned, juicy, and grilled exactly the way they do it overseas. And the Mediterranean chicken with rice Wow. Full of flavor, tender, and seasoned in a way that instantly brings you back to a seaside taverna. Every bite tasted fresh no shortcuts here.

The calamari was so fresh, I could’ve sworn Poseidon brought the octopus in himself. Lightly breaded, perfectly fried, and incredibly tender — not rubbery at all. That’s how you know it’s the real deal.

The restaurant was super busy, and honestly, I could tell why. When a place is packed like that, it usually means one thing: they’re doing something right. The aesthetics of the restaurant are super cool too — it has that vibrant, warm Greek vibe that makes the whole experience feel authentic and lively.

If you’re craving real Greek food and want something that truly reminds you of the islands, this is the spot. I’ll definitely be back. 🇬🇷“

“The food was great. The restaurant was filthy. I took a shower when I got home.“

“I have been coming here for years and would have recommended it until tonight. I walked in and was told that they are too busy to take my order!! WTF!?!? Isn't that a good problem to have? Suck it up, that is part of the business!! I have never in all my life been turned away from a restaurant for such a stupid reason. They didn't even know what I was going to order, which was only a gyro and only taken a couple minutes to make. Not very professional, nor a good way to treat a customer....“

“Best Greek food in the area!“

“This is everyone favorite vendor at our display! They bring the energy, they bring the excitement, and most of all they bring the most amazing Greek food!!!“

“Absolutely amazing experience, great food, and fun yet inviting atmosphere“

“I'm obsessed with Violi! If you're shopping in Oak brook you need to stop by for the happy hour menu“

“Thank you Molos for a wonderful evening. We hosted a small birthday celebration with 20 people. The room was cozy and private and since we had dined before we knew the food would be awesome. We did appetizers of course. The Baked Feta was a huge hit as well as the Saganaki of course. We ordered Greek Salad for each table and our guests ordered off the menu. I’m sure it was a challenge for the kitchen but they handled it very well and everyone enjoyed their meal. We had one server, who’s name I did not get, (may fault). She was awesome! In the end the entire night could not have gone better and even with drinks, wine, and desserts, ordered as our guests desired, the price was very reasonable. We all highly recommend Molos!!“

“some of the best greek food I ever have had! portions and prices are fair!..can't wait to go back! the feta sauce is amazing“

“My fiancé and I have been a gyro war. I’m a Skokie Dengeos girl and he’s a diehard Squabs fan. While it’s hard to compete with childhood memories after trying Squabs I totally get it. The gyro was perfectly cooked, the tzatziki was beautiful, the fries were delicious. The absolute standout was the customer service. I was having such a bad day. I confused the gyro plate with the gyro dinner and they took such good care of me. I had cried the whole ride over and left with the biggest smile and a plate of leftovers. 10/10 I will be coming back every chance I get.“

“very polite owners. great food and for the price, nice portion sizes. Definitely recommend. visited with wife and daughter after going to the zoo. we are from Dekalb and will be back.“

“One of the best Gyros I’ve ever eaten. Delicious food!“

“Excellent food. Good people.“

“homestyle burgers, very clean and delicious food. mom and pop shop. I’d rather give them my business than a big chain any day!“

“Wonderful people, excellent service, great food. Our group just kind of showed up and they had no problem accommodating all of us for lunch. We will definitely be going there again. 14 people in our group and all different food orders, everyone was happy with their food and everything tasted wonderful! Will definitely be going there again!“

“Probably one of the best breakfasts I’ve had in a very long time. I had the Avacodo and Bacon Omellete with hashbrowns and an English muffin. Reasonably priced and a tasty and well-sized omelette! We will go back and I’ll take pictures next time.“

“Nice atmosphere, friendly and efficient staff and good food🌟“

“Absolutely amazing! The 1/2 Greek Chicken at The Gyros Factory is one of the best meals I’ve had in Des Plaines. Perfectly seasoned, cooked on the bone, and unbelievably tender. The rice pilaf and Greek potatoes complete the plate beautifully. A must-try!“

“The food was amazing and so was the service. Enjoyed everything we had. Also the espresso martini(s) was pretty good too 😉 Something here for everyone.“

“Almost forgot about this when scrolling thru my photos. This past June was the first time trying this location, 2nd time overall and the previous was at the Schaumburg location.

I really like their menu here although to many it may be just another Chicago style/Greek fare restaurant. That's fine by me being I live for Chicago hotdogs, juicy burgers, Italian beef, gyros, fries, etc.

The food overall is really good here but the gyros are the bomb. We don't have any Brandy's locations up in Lake County (I live in Beach Park) but I sure wish we did!

If ever in the area again, I could definitely go for some tasty grub from Brandy's. Wish for continued boomin' business for decades to come for the owner(s).“
