8 Best Greek Restaurants near Columbia Heights

“If you crave a different kind of food experience, a Mediterranean and Middle Eastern buffet with big flavors and a large variety of dishes to choose from. You won’t leave the place hungry. We like the babaganoush, hummus, tabule, lentil soup, the pita and breads, the various ways they make ribs, kofta kebab, and the great desserts, like kunafa and baklava. Once in a while, some of the food weren’t hot enough. All you have to do is just wait until they bring out more food from the kitchen. Be sure to ask for mint tea, it is our favorite drink. The place is usually packed with folks from the Middle East and Africa during lunch. Between lunch and dinner, you will not have trouble finding a table.“

“Shout out to Christos Greek Restaurant and love to Gus, a truly amazing person who has kept this wonderful landmark alive and well for so many years! We have never had more delicious food anywhere! My choice was the lamb shank which was cooked to perfection, so tender it fell off the bone and didn't need a knife. Dessert for me was the mousse au chocolat (always) and having tried it at every restaurant that offers it, Christos will never be outdone. It should be mentioned that the salads are always made with what our daughter calls "happy veggies," always fresh and beautiful! the soups are all wonderfully special and "home made" as well. No one comes even close to the love and care that goes into this dining piece of heaven. Enjoying your delectable meal at Christos feels as good as a warm hug from your mom. Salut to happy tummies! :)“

“The BEST gyro in the entire state! The entire WORLD in my opinion! Everything taste just a little better when it's made from the heart! #omarthegreat #goodeats #minneapolis“

“No disrespect to the old establishment, but the new ownership hit it out of the park. The chicken shawerma is bangin. Good portions, good price. Not a fan of ordering on a tablet, and I’d recommend a menu on the wall for easier reading but I’ve already eaten here multiple times. Check it out!“

“I got cured from herpes virus with the help of herbal med i purchased from Dr MOMOH on Facebook.“

“The food was really tasty, but a bit different than listed. For example, my chicken bowl was supposed to come with pickled onions and it did not. The Turkish bread was a highlight. Definitely a takeout place because the door is broken. It does not latch and it was FREEZING on a December evening.“

“Amazing takeout! Called and ordered to-go and everything was incredible! Hands down best spanakopita (feta pie) in Minnesota! The gyros, dips and dessert were all fantastic. Will definitely be ordering again soon.“

“Wonderful combo of traditional fare and things you've probably never heard of. Friendly people and beautiful, tasty food.“
