“Best place to go to for Halal food, the owner is the best. They never got my order wrong but one time they did and fixed it for me the very moment. I ordered three philly cheesesteaks 12 inches and got chicken instead of beef and only realized that once i got home, called the owner and he was not hesitant at all in replacing my order! Props to the owner! Very nice guy and place overall!“

“I love their falafel wraps and sweet potato fries! Also very pleased that they are taking the mask thing seriously in this age of Coronavirus, thank you!“

“Friendly servers. Food was delicious. Casual environment in warm settings.“

“We enjoyed spectacular unique food & delicious cocktails with a nice atmosphere. Our server was phenomenal.“

“Wonderful food and great atmosphere;)“

“Let’s start with atmosphere. It was well kept with nice decor but I wouldn’t consider it fancy. We ordered the lebnah, liver mousse, and tuna tar tar. The mousse was the clear favorite out of the 3 amongst us. The tar tar was a bit over seasoned with chili or cumin. For the main, we got chicken shawarma and lamb meguez. They were quality and well cooked, but lacking that pop for the price. Overall, I would recommend this place to friends and family for its variety and ethnic background. However, it is a bit pricey.“

“Tazik'is is very good! We enjoyed lamb Gyros, kids meal, and pita bread with hummus and taziki. The food was great, and we dined out in the open air so we could keep our little dog out of the car.
The people are super friendly and professional and the prices are fair.
It's a must visit for anyone in the area.“

“Highly Recommend!!!!! This restaurant has the BEST Gyros in this state. They compare to the restaurants in Manhattan NY. Come out & Enjoy 😃“

“I was having the absolute worst day, so I ordered dinner, and it was so good, I honestly felt better. Never underestimate the healing properties of a really good meal, and this is the place to get the best Louisville has to offer.“

“Yum, yum, yum! The fresh grilled salmon, basmati rice, and Greek salad. I think I eat Taziki's at least twice a week. The service is wonderful, and it's not fast food. Your food will take a minute to cook because they are making it fresh (fresh being the keyword). So delicious. It is a wonderful, nutritious, and light meal that leaves you full and energized versus dragging. I don't think you could go wrong with anything you choose, including the baklava. Highly recommend.“

“Me and my girlfriend went here on a Friday night it was exceptional. some of the best food we've both had in our entire lives I had the lamb chops my girlfriend she had the duck it was phenomenal. fairly expensive, but you definitely get what you pay for here. My only caveat was it was a little too loud for us to talk without raising our voice due to it being busy .“

“Amazing place. Everyone is really nice, the food comes very quickly and is delicious. I recommend the steak rollups. Love to see that they have diet Dr pepper on tap, it is rare around here. Very affordable. I would call it cheap, but the food is just too good to be described in such a manner.

Vegetarian options: Very good about this. A lot of the dishes are vegetarian.

Dietary restrictions: They have a lot of stuff for this, but the best thing is that they are always willing to change and customize their dishes so that they are best for you.

Parking: Plenty of parking

Kid-friendliness: As friendly to kids as too adults. Refused to sell my 14 year old self a beer, though. :(

Wheelchair accessibility: There is no issue whatsoever for wheelchairs.“

“Delicious food, excellent drinks, and an inviting atmosphere/staff. Seriously, we even thought the cheese sticks were good and that’s probably not the most common thing to get at such a place but they did not sleep on it. We plan on being back-they definitely left a good impression.“

“Consistently favorable, reliable and healthy food located conveniently on Frankfort Avenue.“

“Little Greek Review:
4600 Shelbyville Rd #402, Louisville, KY 40207

We ordered a Gyro Pita and Chicken Skewers (Souvlaki) from the Light Meal selections, which came with pita bread and a Greek salad.

*Note: My 11-year-old, in exalted excitement about how good this restaurant was, wrote most of this review. I edited for spelling & grammar, but he wrote the bulk of it. Proud mom moment!

Restaurant Atmosphere: 4.5 Stars
Great atmosphere with lots of paintings and a very good layout of the tables, drink fountain, and ordering counter. The restrooms needed a little bit of love – the light switch in the men's restroom was unresponsive and detached from the wall, and the women’s restroom had no toilet paper or paper towels available, but the restaurant itself had a great atmosphere.

Food Appearance: 5 Stars
The food came out looking great! It was arranged well on the plate and looked so good that we took photos of it before we could eat it.

Taste: 5 Stars
Fresh, Crisp, Delicious, a perfect amount of sauce already in the Gyro Pita. The chicken skewers meal was grilled and well-flavored. The Greek salad contained beets and bell peppers, which was different on a typical Americanized Greek salad, but the flavor combination was delicious.

Customer Service: 5 Stars
The associate at the counter was super nice, and didn't mess up our order one bit! The food was delivered directly to our table a few minutes after we ordered.

Little Greek also has a wide variety of choices to choose from.

Vegetarian options: There are options on the menu which are vegetarian, such as a grilled vegetable bowl, a veggie pita, and a spinach pie (though that option is likely made with eggs, so it depends on if eggs are part of your diet). However, the focus of this place is not vegetarian/vegan, so there are mostly meat options and a lot of meat served.

Dietary restrictions: There is a "light meals" option for those looking for better choices.

Parking: Plenty of parking. This restaurant is in a shopping center.

Kid-friendliness: Plenty of space between tables to maneuver a stroller. Kids menu. High chairs and booster seats available.“
