Best Greek food, (Chicken Gyro's and Tzatziki, specifically) I have ever had, anywhere. Everything tastes homemade and delicious. Friendly table service, good for take-out too. My only regret was living around the corner for a year before I tried this place.

Had lunch at the Greek Corner recently after watching Guy Fieri's glowing review on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. We arrived on a Monday about noon, sat down right away. It's a decent sized restaurant, several tables and great waitstaff. My husband and I split the egg-lemon chicken rice soup. It was delicious. Just the right amount of lemon, perfect temperature. A good way to start our lunch. Then we each order the gyro sandwich. Really good - loved the homemade pita bread. The prices were very reasonable. We will go back for dinner. Definitely recommend this place.

I have always grown up living around Greek restaurants... Went to school up the street from there and work in the area. I have driven by this place time after time. I ordered their lamb skewers and had their beef and lamb gyro. I must say their food is amazing. Their french fires are fresh.. Not frozen.... Having had feta cheese at many places theirs is the best I have ever tasted in my life... I don't know if they got the animal in the kitchen... because that is how fresh the feta was.. I am having this tomorrow.. mmmmmm Greek is great!!!

Clean place, awesome food, nice service. Wife and I had the vegetarian combo, which was very tasty. Other dishes at the table looked tasty, too. Greek desserts were all wonderful (seven people shared rice pudding, flan, baklava, and galaktobouriko). Will definitely come again.

So, I probably need help with the Yelp star rating. It does not seem to align at all with the Michelin rating or any conventional scheme. Am I wrong to assume that it is curved-up a bit? I flag something as three stars and the Yelp screen displays 'A-OK' -- that makes sense to me for Greek Corner. It's okay. Okay is not bad. Yet, I see all of these four-star and five-star reviews for the place. What am I missing? It's a corner joint. "Joint" in the traditional sense of the word. There is not a right angle anywhere in the place, It's all bowed shelves, mismatched fixtures and furniture and bits and pieces of things tacked up. It's okay food. Nice to have a reliable Greek restaurant in/near Boston. But, it's not five-star. If the only point of comparison for local Greek food is the lame, Viagra-laden, happy hour joint at the Long Wharf Marriott, then I can see why folks are excited about Greek Corner, but, hey, it's really just okay. If you end up spending months in Boston and miss real Greek food, you will appreciate Greek Corner Restaurant, despite it's inaccessible location and run-down decor. The staff is friendly. Service quick. And, as I think I mentioned, the food is okay. Enjoy!

Put it this way... I have Greek blood in me. I've been to many Greek restaurants. This place has by far the BEST GYRO I have ever had... and the best rice pudding to boot.

I had heard rave reviews about this place for years so convinced the BF and I to finally check it out. We headed over at 8:30 PM on Fri. 7/27. Easily found street parking at this time (3 spots away from restaurant). Upon entering, three waitresses were standing behind the counter chatting and watching the opening ceremonies to the Olympics. One sat us immediately. Another waitress came back within 5 min. and took our drink orders and we placed our order since we read the menu before coming. Ordered the spanakopita; Greek fries (homemade fries with skins on, topped with grated cheese, oregano and lemon juice); chicken gyro for myself and a gyro sandwich plate for the BF (gyro, rice and Greek salad). Service: Great. Waitress was friendly, polite and attentive (she came back 2x to check on us). Food came out quickly and was hot to warm where appropriate. Food: Spanakopita ($4.95): I love spanakopita but unfortunately I was not in love with theirs. It was OK. It was bland and lacked that feta sharpness so made me think not a lot of it was used. But the most disappointing part was that they definitely heated it up by microwaving it (piping hot) which made it soft and droopy. I'm pretty sure the phyllo should be crispy. Regardless, I ate the entire triangle. Average but wouldn't order it again. Greek fries ($4.25): I also love french fries (who doesn't?) and had heard great things about these fries from a colleague so I made it a point to try these and after trying them, I'm not sure what she was raving about. In my mind, I was expecting crispy golden shoe string fries with shaved parm sprinkled on top and a dusting of fresh oregano. Instead a pile of dark wide-cut dense fries came out with a layer of parmesean powder covering them and some dried oregano sprinkled about. When you picked up a fry, all the parm powder just fell off; you just tasted potato. No taste of the lemon juice could be had at all. It just didn't come together. They were pretty much just skin-on fries. Average but wouldn't order again. Would try the regular fries. Gyro Sandwich Plate ($10.95): Gryo comes with pilaf and Greek salad. BF said the gyro was very good. The gyro descrip said it had ground beef but the beef was shaved style like the lamb. Meat was flavorful and tender but the lamb was a little dry. He said it was good but not better then the gryo we get at the annual St. Helen & Constantine Church Hellenic festival in Central Square, Cambridge (unbelievable gryos. Go to the fesitval in June). The pilaf wasn't bad but we didn't like the flavor; it had a cinnamon or clove taste (pilaf was tinted red/orange) which just isn't our thing. The salad was average (no kalamatas in sight) but it did have a nice large block of feta. So overall a lot of food for your $11 bucks. Very good. Chicken gyro ($6.50): Now we get to the high marks...This was fantastic. The chicken was tender, juicy and flavorful, and it was definitely charbroiled. I'm really sensitive to gamey tasting chicken (or rib or thigh meat) and there was none of that taste here. The pita was soft and chewy. The tzatziki was thick and garlicky. Great and highly recommended. Side of pita: You also get cut up soft pita wedges with your meal which is a nice touch. Would be better if they also gave you some tzatziki with it though (we asked for some which was delicious). Otherwise it's a little dry to eat but still nice to have. As we were finishing up, a table of 3 sat next to us and ordered only gryos (which they devoured in minutes) and a baklava to share. Clearly they were regulars because I think that's they way to go here: just get some gyros and a dessert to share. I think if you do that, you'll be very pleased. The BF and I will be back when we get the hankering for gyros and I'll definitely try the baklava (which I was told is house-made upon asking).

As they say in the Greek homeland - Opa!!! This place is absolutely fantastic - whether it be for a group dinner party with friends, a quick dine-in, or take out (I've done all 3). The staff is super friendly and laid back and the prices are more than reasonable. The restaurant has a great neighborhood feel as well. Why don't you do yourself a favor and order the Corner Special Gyro, and treat yourself a bit by making it a Combo with an order of fries. I'm willing to say that is the best value you'll find in Cambridge/Somerville - period! It's also the best Gyro I've had. I've also had the Souvlaki plate and it is delicious. I haven't tried any of the desserts, but you're darn tootin' that I've got my eye on their baklava!

Once again, the Greek Corner amazes me. I arrived at Greek Corner tonight with a huge line out the door; apparently, one of the waitresses was late/didn't show up, and everyone arrived at 7PM to eat dinner! Despite the potential shitshow that could have ensued, our service and food came out in a timely manner. I was pretty shocked that the cooks and staff were able to keep up with the demand... there were literally 20 order tickets lined up, ready to be made! My first few reviews are terrible, so looking back on my original one is kind of embarrassing. As I mentioned, everything I've had is delicious, but the true stand-outs include: any of their soups (had the lentil tonight, out of this world!!!!) village salad with chicken (great mix of veggies and feta without lettuce, served with grilled chicken), greek fries, and chicken slouvaki! Parking isn't too terrible; you may need to do a lap or two, but you should be able to find a spot within a few minutes. They have a bustling take-out business and also deliver though a variety of food delivery services. Cheap, delicious, ethnic... my three favorite attributes for dining out.

Very Good Greek restaurant near Cambridge. I started off with the sampler for 2 but among 3 of us, it was plenty. It came with tzaziki, hummus, tabouleh, eggplant, feta cheese, spinach pie and fish roe and it was a good portion for us to dip our pita bread into. I got the gyro special with the fries and it was very good. Service was excellent and I really enjoyed my meal here.
(5)
Edgar D.

We were very excited about this place after reading the reviews. Unfortunately we were fairly disappointed when we actually tried it. The salads consist of block-cut lettuce, a meager amount of onion and carrots, and not even much dressing other than oil. The fries looked interesting... like we were about to taste something quite interesting. The also disappointed. They were soggy and unspiced. The meats were good, but not in any way great. And the feta cheese was scarce throughout. I am afraid we won't be coming back any time soon.

Best Greek food in Boston. I especially love the spanikopita and chicken kebabs. also good is the souvlaki, gyros, Greek salads, and the tzatziki. Mmm! My workplace often caters from here and the catering is delicious, and the delivery is always on time and served with a smile.

4.5 stars. It'd be 5 if not for one small gripe, which I will get to. Everything I've had from Greek Corner has been quality. Their gyros -- I've had both the Souvlaki Special and the regular Greek Corner Special repeatedly -- are stuffed full to brimming with tasty meat and veggies, and topped off with some seriously finger-licking-good tsatziki. I cannot get enough of that stuff. If you order it as a side/appetizer for delivery, they send you a pretty substantial container of it, along with a square of wax paper containing a healthy grip of (usually) still-warm pita bread. The hummus is likewise delish, though this last order, the consistency was off. I did not care, though, and here's why: the ingredients are still obviously totally fresh, the result is still fresh, and the flavor is good even if it was a little bit liquid for my taste. Actually, I have yet to meet any of their appetizers that I don't like. Guilty pleasure: homemade smoked sausage. It's an amazing treat on a chilly (or hung over) day. Finally tried the pastitso: worth the hype. My madre lives in Italy much of the year. Greece isn't Italy, but Italians do like bechamel and perfectly-cooked noodles, and this dish had plenty of both. Where did the missing half of a star go, then? Because poorly packed delivery boxes make me a sad panda. I think their side salads would be awesomely vinegar-tart and delicious, but they are always packed in the same box as whatever heated entree I've ordered, and have wilted into puddles of unappetizing hot lettuce by the time they get to me. Salads do not belong in boxes with hot entrees. It really does make a difference. For similar reasons, the gyro plate travels better than actual gyros. The more you know!

I LOVE Greek food, and it's hard to do it wrong. And they don't do it wrong -- it's good. Not cheap, not spectacular, but very good. The fries are often cold, but the gyros are very good. The dolmades are so-so and they don't do lemon sauce, but the souvlaki is good (very expensive for what you get). If you like Greek food, give it a try! The only real problem with this place is that it takes over an hour to get a simple dinner there. The service is just awful. Not mean, but unbearably slow. Really, really, really, really slow. Unfortunately, my littlest child is not adventurous, and always gets the burger, which is AWFUL, but that's not the restaurant's fault -- they're better at Greek food. Also, I almost forgot: the baklavah is very good (lots of cinnamon).

Went here on a Sunday night. It was not crowded at all and I was seated immediately. I ordered the Gyro combo with fries. The food overall gets a 5/5 as far as Greek food goes. The Gyro was one of the best I've had and wasn't too big or small - just right. The fries were a little soggy and just average, but I wasn't going there for them anyways. The service was great as well once they changed my waitress. The first waitress didn't come to my table and I had to flag down the bus boy who tracked her down (her first comment to me was, "Were you waiting that long?" - as if I was bugging her). Before getting my food they thankfully changed to a waiter who knew how to do his job and was attentive. If i lived in the area I would come here all the time. Overall 4.5/5 (rounding down for the waitress and soggy fries)

Amazing! Best "hole in the wall" place. The Corner Special Gyro is to die for! I get it almost weekly. Only downside is the service, they're not always the friendliest bunch.

Best greek food I've found in the area. Dynamite gyros and tzatziki, fallafal are excellent too. We get takeout from here regularly, it's our default place to order from in the neighborhood.

3.5 Stars Good Greek food. If you order a plate and don't want your salad steamed by your rice consider asking for it on the side.

I come here a lot with my co-workers for a quick lunch. They do a great job getting us out of there in time. Fantastic greek salad, gyros and hummus. Parking isn't so bad because Mass Ave isn't that busy mid-day. Bring some quarters though if you can't grab a 2hour spot which are close to the restaurant.

Greek food cooked to perfection. The meats are all flavorful and moist with high quality salads and pilaf. The Gyro plate is a perfect meal with large portions. I love the family atmosphere here and although they get unbelievably busy everyone seems to maintain a smile and a pleasant attitude. They have a fairly large selection and everything is authentic and fresh. Pricing ranges from $10-15 per person here and it is beyond worth it. I will definitely always consider this place for my Greek food. The only downside is that parking can be a pain sometimes, but what's new in Cambridge.

I've lived in the Cambridge area almost three years now and have eaten at Greek Corner maybe 5, 6 times. The food is really, really tasty and is really consistent. I've love the souvlaki, it's my favorite by far. I have to say that what has disappointed me time after time, though, is the service. It is SLOW. Not slow as in we have to wait forever to get our food, slow as in we wait forever for a waiter to approach us from start. This, too, has been consistent. Every once in awhile, we get a waiter that's not so friendly, too, which adds to the frustration of waiting 15 minutes to ask for water. Alas, I continue to go. Why? Because it's really yummy. I just can't give a "4" due to the service, otherwise the food gets a "4."

I have been getting takeout from here periodically for a couple of years, but I have given up. The food quality seems to fit to a bell curve fairly well. About half the time it is in the not-so-bad to pretty-good range. Then maybe a quarter of the time you get better than pretty good. It is that bottom end at the tail that kills it for me, that remaining 25% that is just bad. I preferred the souvlaki plate, which gets you a couple skewers of lamb, rice, and salad. Bad salad: I think around 3:00PM the kitchen hauls out a crate of lettuce, chops it up and dumps it in a big vat and pours dressing over it. If you get salad at 7:00PM you are probably getting something from the top half of the vat, but woe be unto the takeout order at 8:30PM that gets the sloppy dregs at the bottom. No points either for the precisely allocated single slice of cucumber and wedge of never ripe tomato. Bad souvlaki: Again, I can only think this is a matter of timing. I have found some pretty rank lamb skewers in my takeout. Some achieve this odd combination of being over cooked and dry, yet also suffering from an over marinated taste too. Old boots don't usually yield lamb-like cubes, but maybe they have discovered a new technique in the kitchen. Maybe the lesson here is dine-in, don't get takeout. Maybe it is to not get takeout near the end of the night, because all you end up getting is leftovers. They can make good food here, but they can't manage to do it consistently and that is what kills it.

Absolutely delicious gyros! Perhaps the best in Boston. But that's not all. Everything else is delicious too. They have the best Avgolemano soup (my favorite), great fries, and fantastic desserts (their galaktoboureko is mighty tasty). "Da Connah" is a solid place all around for good, honest Greek food. Their gyros alone will have me coming back for more.

I used to go here a lot as a child, and the things I loved then are still there. The atmosphere, a family-run Greek restaurant where the severs share their Euro Cup brackets and know their clientele by name, is some of the best I've seen for families in Cambridge, accompanied by the mural of the Greek coast and incredible accommodation for the various picky eating phases my siblings and I have gone through (including but not limited to "grilled cheese without the cheese"). My personal favourites include the fried eggplant appetizer, the calamari, the tzatziki (which is appropriately garlicky and full of cucumber without being overpowering) and the taramasalata. I went there last night and had spinach pie (always excellent), greek fries (french fries with cheese and tarragon - a little soggy but still interesting), and classic rice pudding with cinnamon. Other favourites include the moussaka, the pastitsio (my brother's favourite), and the special gyro. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a family friendly restaurant that's reasonably priced with good food.

Guy Fieri sold me on this place. We ordered everything from the sampler appetizer to the greek fries to the smoked sausage and baked lamb shank. Food is fresh, authentic and outstanding if you know how to eat Greek food. Prices are average and worth it. The only thing they need to work on is their shitty service. Would go back.

First, I'm Greek. My parents moved here from Greece and all mom ever cooked was Greek food, so I think I know a bit about it. If I don't feel like making it myself, or want to enjoy a variety of dishes with friends without cooking for 3 days, THIS IS THE PLACE. Greek Corner is my favorite Greek restaurant (next to the Olympia in Lowell). Their dishes taste just like my mom's. You just can't get any more authentic than that. And if you just think this place is "okay", then you're probably not Greek. 'Nuff said. I recommend the lentil soup (perfect), fried saganaki, and fried calamari for appetizers. Oh, and the tzatziki is perfect. I hate dill. I wish I knew who made the assumption that Greek food should have dill in it. My mom never used it. So, yeah, they don't put dill in the tzatziki, which is key for me. And if you've never tried it, the taramosalata is divine. I could eat waaay too much of that if you let me. The spanakopita is excellent (though I like mine a bit better, but I'm biased). And if you like lamb, go for it. The gyro is fantastic. Oh, hell, get anything. It's all good! Kali Orexi

The Greek corner is a nice little find. The kind of home style local place you can feel safe at knowing you are going to get a good meal. We went with the family which includes two very picky children and a vegetarian wife. We all found dishes we enjoyed and had a nice experience. We ordered a variety of appetizers and entrees and almost all were done well. Presentation is simple, diner style, and the food comes out fast considering how busy they are. On a Tuesday night at 6:30 they were pretty much full. Overall a solid place and a great break from the other, fancier, Greek restaurants I have been to.

Being Greek myself, I know Greek food! And this is GOOD Greek food!! Everything is great but my favorite thing to eat is the gyro (without lettuce). Good size, plenty of meat, plenty of tzatziki sauce and inexpensive! Staff is very friendly, always greeting me with a smile. The decor makes me feel like I am back in Athens! YUM! Mouth is watering just thinking about it!

A friend and I stopped in for lunch on a weekday. The tinted windows are deceiving from the outside-- if the neon sign had not announced "open," the place would have looked closed. When we entered, though, we discovered that there were quite a few people enjoying lunch here. It was a bit warm in the restaurant, but not too bad. I ordered the corner's special gyro and my friend ordered the falafel sandwich. They were both large and delicious. For dessert, we split some baklava, and oh man was it good. My only reservations are about the service and their "vegetarian gyro." We were seated somewhat near the back, and it kind of seemed like our server disappeared and/or forgot about us. Granted, when we finally caught someone's eye, he was very friendly and helpful, and we weren't in a rush, so it wasn't the end of the world. Also, I think the item "vegetarian gyro" is a bit misleading-- we were thinking it would have vegetarian meat, but no, it's just a greek salad on a pita, and it costs the exact same thing as a gyro with meat. Doesn't really make sense...

Having been here twice, I would say that the service isn't great, although, on our last visit, the young man was so charming that we really didn't mind and we weren't in a hurry. Also, the prices are very reasonable and the food is excellent which counts a lot for us. I had a skewer of lamb on a Greek salad. The lamb was cooked perfectly - just slightly pink in the center of a cube. My husband had the plate of lamb skewers with french fries. His lamb was nicely cooked, too. One of our guests had the Gyro plate and the other had the special, swordfish skewers. Both meals were good and the swordfish was fresh and perfectly cooked. The decor is not fancy, but the prices are right and the food is consistently good.

Oh, Greek Corner! You are a lifesaver for a couple of reasons: 1. You provide me with yummy, relatively inexpensive Greek food, which 2. Stops me from actually wanting or needing my Greek mother-in-law to come visit to make it for me (and trust me, this is crucial!) I love Greek Corner...what else can I say? I've eaten both at the restaurant and gotten take out. I find the method of service there very European -- no one is bugging you to hustle you out the door to clear the table, but you can still get the things that you need. I've had the pork souvlaki, chicken souvlaki, and the gyro dinner plate and all were fabulous. Get the horiatiki instead of whatever the regular side is because it's delicious and gives a more authentic experience anyway. I am also a huge fan of their tzatziki and spanakopita. You can easily spend under $10 per person if you get just a dinner plate...and you will be full!

Aimee L.

My favorites: * Souvlaki plate or Souvlaki sandwich * Spanakopita Be prepared for onions and garlic to stick with you for the next 24 hours. Also, be careful of broken skewer pieces in the meat.. especially in your sandwich. Restaurant: relatively clean and bigger than it looks from the outside. Service: ok - specifically I remember the first time coming here, when it was 20 minutes to closing on a Saturday, and our group was turned away, although many people were still dining and others were picking up their orders. At Greek Corner, the service when dining in is ok, but it's better to do take out. Parking: sometimes difficult, especially since the side street is reserved for local residents.

The fact that so many Greek people have given such good reviews to this restaurant speaks to how authentic the food her is, and the more authentic, the more tasty it is! And it really is so tasty. I am a crazy person for Spanikopita. Filo dough, spinach and cheese makes the most mouth watering parcel of delight. They do it right at Greek Corner :) The eggplant and feta wrap is also a favorite of mine. Here's my moral dilemma.. I am really trying to spend my money (thus my consumer vote) at restaurants and venues that use environmentally friendly practices and are running their business in a sustainable way. The restaurant industry is such a large entity and I think it is so important for restaurants to lessen their env impact as much as they can. And it's totally possible and super cost effective. From what I know, the Green Restaurant Association works closely with restaurants to make them Certified Green Restaurants. So, I'm urging all of my favorite places, and Greek Corner is definitely one of them, to look into it. I hope that no readers get sick of me doing it!

This review is the latest in my effort to review restaurants FOR TAKEOUT, because that's how my husband and I usually eat restaurant food. We ordered a gyro plate with fries, a chicken gyro sandwich, the greek fries, and the baklava. We had high hopes because we love the spanokopita. The pros: the food arrived on time and it was still warm. The gyros are very good. The flatbread is fresh and soft. The flavors of the meat, both the chicken and the lamb, are fantastic. If we were only rating these two dishes, I'd give GCR four stars. however ... The cons: the fries were barely cooked and flavorless, even the greek fries which were dusted with some sort of cheese. Also, we got approximately four small bites of baklava for four dollars. It tasted good but customer satisfaction-wise it's a travesty. In short, next time I'll stick to anything made with filo dough and my husband says he'll stick with the gyro. But I won't go experimenting again.

This place is half good. Nothing at all like Peter's downtown by the financial district. The portion of the spinach pie and the feta was tiny tiny! They don't refill your water glass. I like their chicken-lemon-egg drop soup, though. I'd go back, but only if I was in the area.

Live in the 'hood', been going here since day 1. Food always appears fresh. I've never gotten a brown piece of lettuce. This is a regular stop. I consider it healthy eating. Haven't found this quality of Greek food duplicated anywhere.

I tried the Souvlaki lunch plate and have had it regularly about once a week since. The lamb is tangy and offset perfectly with the yogurt sauce (pay extra and get some. It's worth it). The salad is fresh and crispy with good basic oil/vinegar dressing. Mix in some of the sauce to boost the flavor.

This is a GREAT little place on Mass. Ave. I think the staff is awesome. They are very friendly and attentive. I highly recommend the swordfish kabob dinner and while your at it a must have is the homemade hummus. I have also had the chicken dinner and the gyro all made to perfection.

The Greek Corner is casual Greek food the way it should be done. I've traveled pretty extensively looking for the perfect gyro and I think it lives at this unassuming North Cambridge location. The lamb meat delicious and, nearly as importantly, the gyro always arrives well put together, not crumbling or falling apart they way some other restaurants serve it. The chicken gyro is like a work of art. It's just so good. But don't feel that you need stick to these staples because I haven't found a single wrong note on the menu. The spanakopita is worth ordering and the baklava is great. My favorite appetizer on the menu, though, has got to be the fried calamari, which was a surprise. An old roommate and I ordered it on a whim once and were a little bit disappointed when it didn't arrive with something to dip it in. Turns out that doesn't matter. The octopus is lightly fried and so well seasoned that to dunk it in marina or anything else would detract from just how good it really is. All that said I do have just a few gripes. The house red wine isn't worth ordering. The front door to the restaurant must have a kind of brain washing ability because I always forget and end up ordering a glass. And just like that I'm always disappointed. The other problem is the service. I've eaten in European restaurants and know that the dining experience is different, to say the least. Still, waitresses come and go seemingly at their whim and occasionally walk by empty glass - a big no-no for me. But the staff is always friendly and that does a little bit to make up for the inattentive service. So if you're looking for the most mouth watering gyro and calamari in North Cambridge, don't bother going anywhere else - it just won't be as good.

Really cute, really delicious. Cozy up in a booth and order the house red and some starters. The fried zucchini is light and wonderful, the fried eggplant tossed with a subtle citrus sauce even better. The spanakopita is flaky and buttery, the falafel flavorful and adorned with generous servings of hummus and tabouleh. Leave room for the mains, though. Dinner plates come with a wonderful rice (or fries) and a Greek salad with a block of good feta. I sampled the gamut of meats. Souvlaki was satisfying and gyro was tangy with a killer tzatziki, but the lamb kebab was overdone. The pasticchio is a lovely comfort food, with ground beef and pasta baked in a creamy bechamel. Finish with coffee and you've just had a wonderful, homestyle Greek meal.

this place is legit. havent been to greece, but im guessing this is as authentic as it gets! literally the best chicken and feta cheese i've ever had. been desperately trying to re-create the perfectly charred, ridiculously juicy chicken at home, without success. guess i will keep returning for pointers. enjoy!

I've been writing draft after draft of this. . . my favorite was in a Herodetus-esque kinda thing, but I couldn't get it to gel so I'll say this. This place is legendary and has been around forever. Long enough that Herodetus himself wrote about it. Fan-friggin-tastic with all the accouterments that one might expect from a Greek joint: Mediterranean scenes, hard chairs, and paper placemats. OH! and Delicious food! The dolmades were little balloons of flavor and the Gyros. . .Ahhhh the gyros. . the true measure of any greek place The gyros suck. Don't get the regular gyros. It's that ground homogenized crap. If you want the real thing. the real tasty tender melt-inyour-mouth thing, get the lamb sammich, So tender, so flavorful, so delicious. Just as Zeus ordered all those thousands of years ago. Yeah, they're that good. So. Greek corner, I salute you. And if you let me back in I promise to keep my pants on this time! SERIAL!

Love Greek Corner! Feeling adventurous one day, I went here with my brother to try falafel for the first time. I was not disappointed. Service was quick and friendly. Prices were great, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting (if not a bit loud, given that it was a Saturday lunch, lots of kids around). Parking isn't bad at all, given the location. Greek Corner is very affordable; our bill was less than 30$ for 3 people, and we were able to try 2 entrees and 2 soups. The lemon chicken soup and the lam gyro are fantastic!

Shaina P.

Still delicious. Me, Dave, and brother tried three different lamb dishes. In each dish, the lamb was tender and delicious inside, and yet each had a completely different taste and texture. Awesome! Correction on the gyro plate: more like ground meet molded around a skewer, grilled, and then sliced over pilaf and salad. Looked kinda like mini lamb-y donuts (yes, it was yummerz). What is that secret ingredient in their pilaf that makes it so damn addicting? I could eat their sample platter in one bite. Quality, quantity, and great prices.

Great little place and one of the only good things about working in West Cambridge - you can go here for lunch once and awhile. Always great, I personally recommend the Avgolomeno (sp?) soup to start and it is hard to beat the Gyro - I always come back to it as I have not yet found one as good anywhere else.

Best Greek food in Boston. Hands down. No doubt about it. I have eaten in or ordered out from here probably more than fifty times. I have never been disappointed with anything I have eaten, and I have ordered most of the menu. Most often, I opt for the Corner Special Souvlaki, with a taramosalata appetizer. Taramosalata may look weird (it's fish roe mixed with potatoes, so it comes out this odd pink color), but trust me, it is excellent. Ask for extra pita; the appetizer portion is big. The key to the Souvlaki is the cucumber yogurt sauce, which greatly complements the flavorful lamb. I also recommend the pastitso and moussaka. I get them sometimes, just for a change. Greek Corner has all the standards, too (hommus, tabouleh, grape leaves, Greek salad, olives) individually or in a sampler plate, which I enjoy when I come with Greek food newbies. The service is a mixed bag. If you come during dinner hours, expect to wait a while for your food. They are always understaffed during these hours, when the place is really busy. However, they are much faster during other times of the day, and take out has never taken more then 10 minutes preparation. As for the atmosphere, the place is cozy and can be quite loud. But what else can you expect? It's a homey place, serving homemade Greek food. And they do it to perfection.

Deanna C.

I love you Greek Corner. Thank you for existing. I came on a Friday night with a big group of gals and we only had to wait a few minutes for a table. Service was fast and the tables had cute paper place mats of Greece. After reading all the raving reviews for the gyro, I order the gyro sandwich with Greek fries. The gyro was AMAZING. Almost our whole table got one and we all loved it! The Greek fries were nothing special...just normal fries with parmesan cheese and some herbs on top. One thing to keep in mind: after stuffing your face with delicious Greek food, you will smell like it afterward. Even after brushing your teeth and your tongue, the garlic and onion taste and smell will still linger. Probably not the best thing to eat before going to a bar and trying to meet people (like we did). Even a few cold beers didn't wash down the taste. But, let's be honest....it was so worth it!

Rebecca S.

LOVE Greek Corner! It's one of our favorite local haunts. With a chef-husband, we're not super-easy to please...but we never leave unhappy when we eat here, which is generally a few times a month. We generally get to-go, as it's a little more restful to eat at home, as it can get a little noisy later in the day, but nothing beats having a heavenly gyro with a cold Mythos on a hot summer evening. Greek fries are a MUST too... My mother insists on eating here at least twice when she visits- we'd never be forgiven if we skipped it. The seasoning is just right- they're not afraid of garlic, and cook their meats to a point of doneness where everything is still juicy and flavorful. YUM. Another reason to love North Cambridge.

After returning from a vacation to Greece, my friend had a hankering for some stateside Greek, so we headed over to Greek Corner after reading all the positive reviews on Yelp. We weren't disappointed at all -- extremely friendly staff and excellent, authentic Greek. What, you were looking for something else? If you've only ever had falafel from places that don't specialize in Greek, just forget about whatever salty impression you've got of the stuff and get the falafel here. The Grape Leaves they serve at Greek Corner are the best I've ever had. Anywhere. Great grape leaves have a taste that's unlike any other meal I've ever had, and whatever it is, Greek Corner's got it nailed. My friend and I made a deal -- I'd give her one of my grape leaves in exchange for her souvlaki. I tried her souvlaki (cooked perfectly)... and then she said she was too full to try my grape leaves. SCORE. The Galaktoboureko we had for dessert was fabulous, and was gone within about 15 seconds. Real plate-licking stuff. The waitress dealt very patiently with our attempts to pronounce it before smiling and setting the record straight (how many times a day must she have to do that?). For Greek in Boston, make the trip out to Greek Corner. So worth it.

If you're hoping to have the gyro sandwich made with fresh lamb and beef slices as featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives (as we were), it would be wise to call ahead first. It is a special, not part of their regular menu. The waiter told us it appears on the special board as "traditional gyro" and is made a couple times a week, although there are no set days. We were there on a Sunday and had missed it by a day - so disappointed! Instead we had the Corner's Special Gyro (made with typical gyro meat - ground meats formed into a tube, put on a vertical rotisserie and sliced) and the Corner's Special Souvlaki. Both were delicious but not what we had been looking forward to. Hope to return someday for their "traditional" gyro!

Drove waaaay out of the way to come to dinner here because of the great reviews. And you know what? The reviews were very accurate. The place is really cute, kind of small, but not so small that you're sitting on top of the next person. Anyway, we started with the FRIED CALAMARI for an appetizer, which was delicious. Since I am terrible with decisions, I was debating between the CHICKEN KEBAB vs the SWORDFISH KEBAB. So the waiter made it simple and suggested half and half. Perfect!!!! My husband and the PORK SOUVLAKI and he literally was in heaven. He doesn't eat pork, but souvlaki is his only only exception. :) Best of all, the prices are great. Parking sucks though.

We ate here last night, and I am pleased to recommend it. Because it was Friday night, there was a line at the door but they seated us without too much wait, even with a party of 12 ahead of us. The food arrived quickly and was delicious. The staff was friendly and accomodating and the prices were reasonable. This place is one of those rare jewels which you sometimes stumble across. If only it were easier to find parking in Cambridge.

Irene, and her co-workers, treated us really well for my wife's birthday celebration. Wanted a meal that would cater for the varying tastes of my family and friends....Greek Corner Restaurant didn't disappoint. They even brought out a birthday rice pudding cake topped with a candle! We had the sampler plate and 2 calamaris for starters that was more than enough for our party of 6. The main courses were ample. Nothing was too much. Extra pitta bread was supplied, and even though my lamb shank dish came with the wrong accompaniment, Irene brought the correct one almost immediately and left the original. The red house wine recommendation was very good. Many thanx for recommendation from fellow reviewers. We may not have gone to this wonderful restaurant, had it not been for you.

I'd passed by this place several times and never stopped or thought twice of it. Enter the Duke. That's right, none other than Massachusetts own Michael Dukakis...in fact, this is a long story but I'll cut it short. The Duke had a catered speaking engagement. I was there. Greek Corner was the caterer. The offerings were delicious. I've been falling all over myself to get here ever since. I'd peg the decor as cozy kitsch. There's a mural of some idyllic Greek Island on the wall with seven people on it. Don't ask me how I know it's seven, or why I cared in the first place. There's a hutch in the rear of the largest part of the dining room whose shelves are bowing under the weight of several bottles of Greek wine. The place is family friendly and as Class Act noted, maybe a little too close to Arlington. The menu is straightforward so we got to business with a saganaki appetizer, gyro and lamb souvlaki combos. The saganaki appetizer wasn't exactly saganaki as I remembered it. This was more a dish of melted flaming cheese. My saganaki, of delicious memory, held form when grilled or fried. I didn't let that detail stop me from eating it though. The gyro was delightfully seasoned and the lamb souvlaki was grilled to perfection, not overly dry or charred. The salad accompanying one combo plate was limp and pitiful but the fries accompanying the other? Piping hot and crispylicious. The taramosalata was creamy, lemony and salty and provided a great dipping sauce for my fries. The service was marginal. Our wait was about 15 minutes. The place was packed, but several people who were seated after we were received their dinners before we did despite the fact that we'd only ordered two sandwiches fries and a salad. We had no room for dessert, but weren't disappointed. When your belly is filled with deliciousness who cares from whence it came? We now have the perfect equation for a dinner for two with room for dessert, one sandwich combo with fries, one sandwich... DESSERT! Better luck next time.

It can be a little noisy in Greek Corner, but the energy definitely lends itself to a warm atmosphere. The walls are beautifully painted with inviting scenery of Greece. The lamb souvlaki plate is decently priced and very good. The lamb's not really gamey but tender and flavorful. The sides were fresh as well. You feel like you're being treated as a guest at someone's home with the friendliness and warmth of the service.

This place is in my speed dial for a reason. A very good reason. I get takeout from them more than any other place in the area. I call when I get off the commuter rail at Porter and by the time I'm at the restaurant, my gyro is waiting for me, warm and ready to go. Mostly, I do take out from this place, but inside the restaurant is decently spacious and a nice place to grab a meal. The staff are very friendly and the food come us pretty quickly. Honestly, I've never ordered anything other than the Corner Special Gyro. It's an amazing deal. A great amount of food at a very reasonable price. It is also large enough to feed a small army. If I'm feeling famished, I may add a salad, but that's only for the very ambitious. I think the key is great feta and amazing pita bread. The Greek Corner has, most likely, the best Greek food in Boston. Make your way here and do it soon!

I've lived near this place for over two years now and finally decided to check it out a few weeks back. This place is so amazing! I am not a red meat-eater so I can't tell you how their lamb is or their Gyros but their vegetarian sampler plate is so freakin' good! The hummus is thick and yummy, the bread is fresh and delicious, the tabbouleh is spicy and the stuffed grape leaves tasty. I loves me some calamari and this is some of the best squid out there! I also love their rice and swordfish kabobs; thick and juicy! Also, they are not stingy with their portions and the price is right. I also highly recommend washing everything down with their European iced coffee; thick and dark and syrupy! They also serve booze, try a Greek beer like Mythos. Man, I wish I was there right now.

Jody M.

food alone is 5 stars. but due to service, this is a conditional 4 stars. we stopped going to the greek corner a couple years ago - even though the food is great - because the service was so...relaxed. when a waitress would finally get around to us, she would always be friendly, helpful, beautiful but never very...energetic. so we'd wait 20 minutes to get a menu, 30 minutes to place an order, 25 minutes to get the food (always terrific), and another 30 minutes to get the check. then we tried it one more time this week and maybe it was because we got there after 7 and the dinner rush was pretty much over or maybe it was because there are new waitresses, but the service was exponentially faster! still friendly, helpful and beautiful but now also attentive. so as long as the service stays on track, it's 4 stars, even 5. but if this was a momentary lapse, it would have to be 2 stars.

Great vegetarian combination plate. I went with two friends and a baby, and we were able to find a table with stroller parking at 11:45 AM, right before it got busy. As others have said, the waitstaff takes its time to come around to the table, but I think it's really a test they administer: "Hah! Let's see if these chicks can endure the delicious aromas wafting from our kitchen, without freaking out and waving one of us down! If so, we'll serve them!" Sort of like MTV's Boiling Points, without the hidden cameras and monetary rewards. Who needs money, anyway, when you have scrumptious grape leaves, crispy falafel, and to-die-for tabouleh? Not I! Back to food, here's the low down on the things I ate: Tabouleh appie: lemony, tangy, salty, and awesome where it counts. Comes with kickass pita bread. Vegetarian Combo Plate: Grape leaves, spanakopita, falafel (1), grape leaves (2), a huge pile of hummus, and fries (about 17). Everything was grape (haha, I mean great)! Spana was savory, falafel was flavorful, and the fries were fabulous. Coffee: Wow - I really liked the coffee. Maybe it's because I only stock the half-caf shit in my house, but this drove me to Jittersville with one cup alone. So I had two. Baklava: Got two pieces to go, and TRIED to bring one home for hubby but made the mistake of eating mine in the car. Then his. So I didn't give him the empty bag... i just told him lunch was good and suggested we go there for lunch sometime during the week. Yes, play nice-y nice-y with the waitstaff, and they'll love you forever. Be patient, and pretend you're actually in Greece on vacation. The wait won't seem as long that way.

I absolutely love this place--I have to stop there any time I'm near it. The service is excellent and fast, the decor is surprisingly cozy and almost a tiny bit romantic (said the GF), and the food is SUPERB. I made a great deal of noise about there not being good/plentiful Greek food in Somerville and Cambridge, and while I largely feel that's still true, this place is a gem. I always get the gyro, but I've sampled friends' meals, and it's all fantastic. The portion sizes are generous without being overkill, so you don't leave hungry. Lastly, this review wouldn't be complete without mentioning the Greek Fries--I'm in love with Greek Fries. They're basically fries that have been done-up with grated parm and some oregano, but the potatoes are hand cut and absolutely perfect. I always wanted to like hand-cut fries, but they all seemed to come out hard and cardboard-like or else like a carved-up baked potato. Not these--no, sir. Fantastic.

The food is DELICIOUS. 5 of 5 stars. So why 4 stars then? Just picked up food from Greek Corner and waited 15 minutes while my food was ready on the counter for the staff to find a minute to take my ccard. Its the same 3 people that work there all the time and while they are very friendly they are extremely overworked and it really shows, whether it is sit down or take out service. The food is amazing, and is completely worth going. The food comes out fast, once they take your order. Prices are very fair as well.

I had a chance to check out Greek Corner Restaurant last week with my friend, Wynonna J., who felt that Greek Corner was one of the better restaurants in Davis Square. With that ringing endorsement and being new to the area, I was excited to give this place a try. We went on a Friday night, and I thought the service was good. Our vegetarian sampler appetizer came out in a matter of minutes, which was key because we were both really hungry. I could tell Wynonna J. was fading fast, when our conversation decreased rapidly to my uninterrupted monologues, though I think I put on a great show. As an appetizer, the vegetarian sampler plate is delicious. It is a plentiful assortment of grape leaves, spinach pie, hommus, tabouleh, feta cheese, and eggplant salad. It is perfect to split between two people. As far as entrees, I would especially recommend the chicken gyro. It is a delicious deal at $5.75 as it is stuffed with flavorful marinated chicken with lettuce, tomatoes, and onions.

Location: -1 star. Price: +1 star Verdict: 5 stars Way too far for me to go on a whim... but the gyros make it worth the long travel. Yes I waited 30mins in 13 degree weather for the 77 to take me there. But the gyro was so worth it! (I think it's the pita they use...) Their food is excellent. I particularly enjoyed their falafels, hummus and Greek fries. I'm not a fan of the moussaka, but that might just be a difference in preference. It's difficult to find good Greek places in the city that satisfy my cravings...and am happy to say this one hits the spot!

Best greek food in the Boston area, by far. The food is fresh and delicious, the service is great a,nd the staff are super friendly. Greek Corner is the type of establishment you should want to support, they deliver a fantastic product without extraneous frills and pretension. Sometimes it gets a little crowded, and there's a bit of a wait, but it's totally worth it.

It's simply serendipitous that I live 1/4 mile from this place. It's amazing. And I'm not really sure how I survived without it. I have been here several times in the past 2 months of living in the area, and it's delicious and cheap. I've had their chicken gyro combo and the corner special souvlaki and both are so good. I want to try other things but those two wraps are so tasty that I have a hard time straying, even though my roommate said the Pastitsio (sp?) was yummy. And their Baklava is, according to her, divine. Boyfriend lives in Back Bay and we have ordered take out and brought it back to his place. It's on the way from mine to his, but even if it weren't it's totally worth it.

Kathleen F.

Mmmm this place is delicious and definitely has authentic greek food! One of my favorite things are the greek fries--I have been trying to find them everywhere since I had them in greece and this place has them, delicious! The salads and kebabs are also very good. I have not had a bad dish yet from here and I've tried about half of the menu at this point. Yum!

French Fry World Tour Stop #5 Greek Fries, my friends, is the menu item under scrutiny today. That's some nationalistic chauvinism there, right? Like "Oh, yeah, sure, we gave the world democracy, but McDonald's still owes us royalties for that other thing." There's some food items I regard as indisputably Greek. Kalamata olives? Greek. That salty pink fishy stuff that I can never remember the name of? Greek. Any combination of spinach and feta cheese ever in the history of the universe? Greek. Fries? Well, to be honest, the Greek Corner does a pretty decent job of convincing me that the French have managed to pull a major fast one on the entire world. So right on, Greek Corner, and right on, Greece. Eleutheria e Thanatos ! (Yeah, I just looked that up.) To be honest, I'm not sure exactly what goes into the Greek Corner fries to change their nationality, but there's definitely some lemon juice, possibly vinegar, certainly oregano and a generous amount of parmesan cheese. Maybe some other things. Again, you've probably had some sort of pseudo-gourmet herbed fries that you're thinking must be similar to the Greek Corner's offering but you are WRONG. And I bet you've never had your fancy herby fries with a feta melt, which is the Official Sandwich of Greek Fries the way the hamburger is the Official Sandwich of french fries. I once tried dipping these fries in tzatziki, and it was a bit of a revelation. Eat 'em fast - they can get a little soggy. It won't be tough, I promise. To sum up: **** Serving Size * Condiment Novelty (**** for Preparation Novelty) ** French Fry Fortitude *** Quality Control

They have a leaky air conditioner over the front door, so be sure to step in on the extreme right or left of the door. Cool? Cool. I've only gotten take out from this place but it's always been perfection. Call ahead or just walk in, it usually takes less than 10 minutes before you're on your way to Yummytown. Okay, that was lame but I don't feel like backspacing it because I secretly like saying Yummytown. While you're waiting, pretty much everyone there will ask you how you're doing. I check out the side chalkboard for the day's specials and immediately start cursing myself for ordering my regular (but still delicious) dish. I usually get some spanakopita or the corner special souvlaki (chunks of marinated lamb or pork in pita bread with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, parsley and cucumber yogurt sauce). Last time I came in pretty late and I remember being surprised about how good everything tasted. The meat was tender (and they weren't skimpy when it came to my pita), the ingredients tasted super fresh, and it was super saucy just like me (some may not dig this, so ask for it a little lighter if that's how you roll). It's pretty dangerous that the prices are cheap and it's so close to my apartment!

Sarah M.

This is a great find. The food is excellent, prices are v. good, and the decor is "good enough." I had the chicken gyro combo w/ fries ($8.50), which was great (fantastic warm pita). The portions were HUGE though, and b/c we had ordered the hummos and feta/olives appetizer, it was way more food than I needed, but that's fine. I love leftovers! The hummos was great, the feta and olives were pretty and tasty - my kids loved them. The kids shared a chicken skewers w/ rice from the kids menu and liked it. Sig. other had a gyro combo w/ salad and loved it. A hit -- we'll go back and will just order a little less! The only drawbacks - parking - we found it right in front, but it's a gamble. And decor is 7/10. The review should be a 4.5, wish yelp did halfsies!

Eric G.

Hands down best Gyro I have had in Boston. This is definitely a must-try place in Cambridge. Gyro was a little crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, the perfect "well-done" that I always look for but did not have to ask for at this place! Service was great too, very quick and courteous. Can't believe it took me 5 years to try this place. Wish it was closer to my workplace that way I could have it every week!

Jason C.

Great place - good, high quality and very inexpensive Greek food. We usually get the chicken or lamb gyro and they're the best I've had in the area. Very fresh and flavorful. The Greek fries are solid too, although a little soggy at times so I'd recommend ordering them extra crispy. I've had the falafel and it's solid but not spectacular. Very good baklava if you want something sweet after the meal. I usually do take out - which is really quick but service for dining in has been very attentive the times I've eaten there.

First impression of Greek Corner was that it must be pretty good with the long line out the door. Party of 2 and we were seated in 10 minutes without a reservation around 6pm on a Thursday night. It wasn't until 10 minutes passed before our server arrived to take our drink and appetizer orders though. The grape leaves and Greek fries were familiar so we ordered them. I enjoyed the grape leaves, particularly the depth of lemon flavor, even though they were slightly colder than what my company would prefer. (She's Albanian and likes em warm.) The Greek fries were her favorite and she actually took her entree to go because they were that good. Meanwhile the gyro I had was delicious. Can't go wrong with lamb and beef wrapped in a pita with cucumber yogurt sauce and veggies. I had shawarma the other night but I love the gyro more. To finish our meals, we each requested a piece of baklava that ended up being huge and freshly baked! So far it's the best I've tried yet with the perfect flaky texture on the outside and nutty goodness on the inside. I usually hate sweet desserts for their decadence but, even with the honey drizzled on top, the baklava was not cloyingly sweet. Perhaps it was due to the Greek coffee I sipped on the side. If diabetes weren't a risk factor I'd have eaten another baklava for sure. Overall, the food and value here is a 5/5. Just the service could improve with a 3/5 that is probably due to high table turnover during peak hours. P.S. I could not stop staring at the signed portrait of Guy Fieri!

Gonen M.

I have been to Greek Corner so many times, and never was disappointed! Service is always great, food is awesome. My favorite is the grilled chicken skewers pita sandwich (it is called souvlaki in Greece, but I guess it is called chicken sandwich in Greek corner. I just say chicken souvlaki and they get what I mean) with Greek fries (hand-cut fries with a little parmesan on top). I don't like their desserts that much, but still their baklava is better than what other places would pass as baklava...
(5)
Cristina R.

OPA! This cozy corner is the most authentic Greek spot in the area and continues to have a humble feel despite it's Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives debut. Guy Fieri doesn't kid around. The gyro is indeed delectable. But the moussaka is where I've found my Greek Corner comfort. Flavorful ground beef is served in a large lasagna-like slice with eggplant and creamy yet somehow fluffy cheese. It's truly love in food form. All of the specialty plates include a Greek salad and choice of rice or fries, so you've got a hefty meal on your hands for around $13. The rest of the menu items I've sampled including the soups and pita sandwiches have also been scrumptious and affordable. It's all Greek to me!

So when Jason L and I first started dating, I felt the need to try to impress him with my "good taste." So, I brought him to Greek Corner. Greek Corner has all the elements of a "cool place." It has fresh food, big portions, zesty service and cheap prices. There is also Greek coffee and the MOST DELICIOUS OF GYROS. The gryo plate is a a gifts from the gods. The meat is out of this world tender and flavorful. The spinach pie is flaky and dense and cheesy. The coffee is strong. As the Irish would say, "it puts hair on your chest." The decor is non-fussy and diner-esque. Perfect for a casual get-to-know-you date, or pre-drinking dinner. I always feel like I am back in NYC - St. Marks Place, or the Village, specifically, when I come here. Parking, is easy to find. Take out available. I could end with some Mount Olympus puns - but I won't. Go here, eat well, leave with a full tummy and wallet.

We love Greek Corner and get take out often. We have also had great dining-in experiences (including with our toddler). The avgolemono soup is wonderful, as are the chicken skewers, salad, spinach pie, and there's just something special about the rice pilaf.

Tuli S.

MMM! Get the Gyro Plate! I've been here many times through HS and college and I haven't found a better gyro in the Boston area yet. Really awesome and worth visiting. Service is good and the food is consistent.

Damien S.

Just when I thought Zo had me off carnival-style gyros, Greek Corner smacks me in my naive mouth. Of course, tzatziki and shredded lettuce go flying; Greek Corner is so strong. Plopped the tush at a two-top by the front door/drinks cooler/TV/to go counter, and zoned in immediately on the lunch special: any sandwich and a side (fries, chips, soup or salad) for $8.50. You may be about to ask, "Does this include their avgolemono soup?" Yes, interruptopotamus; yes it does. Now, let me finish before you try to jump in again. The sub-$10 meal coupled the piping hot, creamy and tangy cuppa egg, lemon and rice special, with a beef and lamb wrap in a warm, toasty (and heavily seasoned) pita. Arguably the best in its class, the gyros meat is tender is pip-poppin' with street flavor, if only there was a bit more of it! Both the protein and dat dilly sauce got jammed in the back by a veritable onslaught of iceberg. Oh, if it were a bit more balance, I would've cried while eating. And not just because of all the topsoil we're losing to erosion. This sandwich is scrumptious. Watched Colombia eke out a victory on the in-house CRT, put the bill on plastic and bounced out in under 30 minutes. Can't spare another moment? Get it to go, son - no fewer than four folks grabbed a white sack of goodness during my lunch break. I know because their big heads blocked my view of the World Cup. Super friendly staff? Check. I've no doubt the next visit to Greek Corner will yield that fifth star. And the next visit is in the immediate future.

I have had take out a couple of times and have been wowed. Big portions of tasty fresh food. What else could I want? I'm crazy about the spanakopita and the stuffed grape leaves. Salad and pilaf with many entrees and TONS of pita bread. Yay!

Alee G.

The moussaka here is sooooo good!! The stuffed grape leaves aren't too bad either. Give it a try!

Tony J.

The food is very good, and the place is really friendly. The servers are fun, and contribute to the nice, relaxed atmosphere. They also do takeout, so if you're having a large party, consider getting food from here. It's one of the few places where I've actually enjoyed the lamb, since I don't like the taste of lamb.
(4)
Michelle S.

It was alright, not sure I'd come back. Service was mediocre and slightly inattentive. We started with the hommus which came with very bland pita bread. From that alone I was nervous about the rest of the meal. I went for a Gyro sandwich plate and got double salad. The greek salad was good and once I dug into the gyro I was like yep ok this is why people like it... however it was very heavy on the tzatziki to the point where I just had to stop eating it because it was over powering the sandwich. My friend got the greek salad with chicken wrap. She pulled out a whole chicken tender from her wrap, it wasn't cut up at all.. If I lived a bit closer I'd consider just take out gyros with light on the tzatziki but I don't see myself traveling there to sit and eat.

Liz S.

I tried this place for takeout because of the stellar reviews. I ordered the vegetarian platter, and got a huge portion of rice, hummus, pita, spanikopita, and Greek salad, with a cube of feta, two grape leaves and a giant falafel ball. And, meh. They didn't give me any plastic cutlery or napkins which made eating back at the hotel an interesting challenge! And it was all fine, it just didn't match my expectations from reviewers of the best Greek food they've ever had. Maybe all their effort is on good gyros, but to me, your falafel shouldn't be a giant dry ball. I think getting basic Mediterranean foods right is an important staple. And I am also vegetarian and I want to enjoy my meal just as much as the carnivores. The hole in the wall Mediterranean places in DC are much better.

Beth J.

I love this place! The service was awesome and the food was amazing. We shared the spinach pie, dolmathes, gyro plate and had baklava for dessert. It has been a really long time since we've had Greek food this good. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Patrick F.

I ordered Foodler delivery from Greek Corner and was very impressed with the quality of food.. I ended up getting the Chicken Kabob dinner (see photo) which came with Rice Pilaf, Seasoned Grilled Chicken, and a small salad. The food arrive hot and tasty, and the chicken was grilled and seasoned perfectly - juicy and delicious, which is hard to get with delivery! My one complaint is that the side of tzatziki was TINY.. for $2.50 it should have been a good amount. Not to mention that tzatziki should just come standard with your meal especially at that size!
(4)
E F.

Oh yeah. When I lived around the corner, this place was my jam. It's a little funny that they still post all their awards on the front window, even those now very very outdated, but it doesn't mean they aren't still great. Big portions but not always big flavor - still a great choice.

Bryan W.

The Ultimate yeer-oh!!! What makes this place different from any other Greek joint?? They have a combination yeer-oh that has ground beef and lamb!!!! I know... nothing special about that huh? WRONG!!!! This is a great sandwich! I will give it the bald fat guy approval . ( be sure to grab a few napkins) Nice taste and texture and nothing but fresh ingredients were used! I love Pastitso but it got vetoed and we had the Moussaka instead. Nice slices of eggplant, ground beef (I thought it was lamb) potatoes and a lightly spicy. I wasn't happy with the bÃ©chamel but everyone has there own way of preparing things. Not saying that it is bad...Just not what I am accustomed too. We split the swordfish kababs . It was too a bit acidic but the rice and salad kinda brought everything together. This place reminds me of the Astoria,Queens area. I will definatly swing back for the Pastitso and Avgolemno!!
(3)
Kunal C.

Greek comfort food at its best! If you love Greek food, this place is a must try. Some of my favorites are the avgolemeno soup, saganaki cheese and the baked lamb. The decor is a little outdated and the service is slow at times but that food is worth it.

I am so happy I found this place! The dressing on the greek salad is so delicious. The salad itself is fresh and the chicken has great texture (tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. My husband had the lamb gyro which was the best he said he has ever had. It seems like it gets busy a lot but well worth the wait. YUM!!! The only downside is the Guy Ferrari pictures on the wall. Just keep your eyes on the food.

Jose B.

The Gyros are really tasty and fresh. I tried other things like the mousaka which was good on the top but bland and tastless on the bottom meat and eggplant half. The marinated octopus was not impressive and overpriced for the portion. The deserts ate good though and the lamb souvlaki is a treat. Didnt think much of the pork souvlaki. I go there to eat a Gyro once in a while and I order it with extra tzaziki sauce that is where they excel that gyro is spot on try it the rest is all Greek to me or maybe not so much Capish?

Definitely one of my favorite places to eat in the area! My go to order is usually the Corner's Special Gyro, but when I'm really hungry I order the Gyro Sandwich Plate. Their prices are very reasonable and I always have a pleasant experience here. My coworker usually orders the Sampler Plate and has great things to say about it, but I've yet to try it. I've also heard that the Falafel here isn't that good, so maybe stay away from that.

Just tried this place for the first time, they were so busy, it was a wait for a table. They were short staffed and the credit card machine didn't work. We ordered spinach pie, the corner special gyro, corner special souvlaki, gyro plate and tuna wrap with salad. All was delicious and we will definitely be back. Come on a Sunday, better chance to find a parking space.

Eloise M.

Some of the best authentic Greek food available in the area. Good prices for a large amount of food and definitely worth trying. I highly reccomend the gyro plate. The beef is cooked to perfection and seasoned deliciously. The plate is served with a lightly dressed salad with feta and fresh tomato. The optional rice is very tasty though nothing special. The gyro plate is served with perfect Greek tzakiki sauce and a helping of fresh pita. Mmm, I think I'll go back soon.

During my time in Boston my host recommended this place around the corner literally from where I was staying. So we walked over and checked out what all the hoopla was about. Fortunately for the name of the place it was located on a corner. Definitely a plus on their part. So apparently this is a well-known place that made the food network/travel channel. The line out the door was proof; though it was not a long wait we did observe that this is a family run business. And only the family, three of them were running it. Cook, servers, and busers. I will admit the longest wait was to get a table, the three of them we all moving fast. There was no delay in getting food ordered and on our table. We ordered many different items to have our own little tasting while here. And as usual I tired to eat it all. The food was fantastic! So many different flavors to choose from definitely something for everyone's taste. I would recommend a trip out to Cambridge. You can get here by train, though I do not remember which line it was to get out there. Enjoy!

The first stop on Valentine's day was the tattoo parlor across the street from this restaurant. Sandra did a stellar job putting a 1920's labor movement image on my arm, but after a while under the needle I needed some food. So we went to Greek Corner around 5:30 and it was great. The food was fantastic. First, a heaping sampler plate of hummus, baba ganoush, spanikopita, and a couple other things. All of it fresh and delicious, I especially enjoyed the tangy hummus. Then we shared a gyro plate, and this thing was fairly incredible: tons of delicious spicy tender meat and a mountain of just out of the fryer fries. The waitress was like, "its Valentine's day, you're making her pay?" and I muttered something and she said "I always work on Valentine's day. That's what 18 years of marriage does." Take it from me, folks: more ink, more Greek food, less marriage.

I live down the street from Greek corner and go here all the time! Greek corner has a great assortment of very authentic Greek food. Definitely check out the saganaki, gyros, and anything lamb. I'm personally not a fan of dolmathakia, but friends of mine who are said that they were wonderful. That said, make sure you go here when you have a bunch of time on your hands, because they can be a little slow to take your order and a little slow to bring the bill. However, the time between ordering your food and receiving it is relatively short. Great family-run feel here, if you love Greek food check it out!

Ok so this place I Really wanted to be great I would have settled for good cuz I was so hungry. I made the drive to Somerville and wish I made the drive to Steve's in Back Bay instead. Yes even thinking about parking too. The place was empty 2 other Parties of 2 were in the place. The guy at door says seat your self I guess he never told us that we needed to get out own menus too. So were waiting to get them and then he comes over 5 mins later and says "what you we want." I and say ymmm menus please. He gives us them with a look like I have 4 heads. We order the food I ask for hot sauce we get Asian style hot sauce ODD Very ODD. The food potions were WAY too small. My husband gets a roasted lamb sandwich he wanted a plate of lamb but we can't fight about semantics. The sandwich had 3/4 pieces of lamb. The tomato was cut in a way for him to get the ends He hate this so much!!!! My husband tells the guy about the small potions of lamb and he says oh you got 4 pieces you were giving to much!!!!!!!! WHAT!!!!! It's so sad.

I could eat here every day! Ok, maybe three or four times a week. Yes, the gyros and lemon soup are to die for as everyone else has observed, but I think the real star has been glossed over by other yelpers. The pita. Can I get an "amen"? I'm not talking about whatever that flat bread is they put on your table after you order (could be store bought pita), I'm talking about what they serve their delicious sandwiches in. Anyone who gives a d*mn about sandwiches knows the truth- a transcendent sandwich is made or broken by the bread it's served on, and this place gets it right, so right! Their pita is soft, fluffy, chewy, and the flavor is delicately divine! The perfect vessel for all their yummy meats and sauces. I always find a parking spot outside, and always drive away with a smile on my face. Check it out!

Greek Corner, why are you so freezing? All the time! Still, how can you not want to eat here when you see the decor--faux columns around the door, scenes of Greece painted on the walls...it's like taking a trip to the Mediterranean, minus the warm weather. The food is solid. The gyro plate is where it's at. They always have baklawa. Apparently, it's also an awkward second date spot. Fantastic people watching. [Girl, "no, no, it's my treat this time...oh...I forgot my wallet, oops!"] The staff is nice, and doesn't seem to judge when I inevitably always eat here 20 minutes before closing time. The portions are healthy. Craving satisfied.

The food was delicious. We had a starter plate for two which was a nice way to settle into the Greek experience. The chicken Gyro was tasty and moist and full of flavor. There was plenty of seating at lunch and it looked like they were doing a lot of take out business as well. Of course parking in Cambridge is Cambridge's fault when the snow is ever-present.

Update: 2 of the 3 people that ate delivery food from the greek corner are down with food poisoning. I blame it on the salad: maybe not well-washed?

What happened to the amazing Greek Corner I used to know?? Went here with a date Friday night and was so disappointed. Our feta and kalamata olive app was skimpy; the calamari bland and chewy. We ordered gyro and souvlaki entrees and both were super dry. At least the baklava was good, and the service friendly.

Greek Corner was recommended to me by a coworker whose father is from Greece. This place is super authentic and delicious! It might not be the fanciest spot in the neighborhood, but it's definitely worth the stop for a quick bite. Be sure to order their gyro! I'm a huge fan of their takeout. You can literally place an order at the counter that is ready to go in less than 10 minutes. I'm not sure why there are complaints about service. I have never had a bad service experience here. I have eaten at Greek Corner for lunch and dinner a bunch of times. Next time you find yourself in North Cambridge be sure to stop in here!

Our first time at this restaurant and definitely not going back. Unfortunately one of our take out had a worm in our salad (I have a video to prove it). Called & spoke with Maria. She apologized and said sometimes they're in the lettuce. First and last visit! Maria made it seem as if it's normal for the worm to be in the lettuce. No thank you! Disappointed and disgusted! The lamb souvlaki was not bad but I've had better Greek cuisine!

Really great food. Busy, sometimes noisy, authentic. Reasonable prices & tasty. I love the gyros & the lamb shish kabobs are to die for. Never had a problem parking on Mass Ave, even though it is in Cambridge. This place is nowhere near my home in Salem, but I still make the trek 5 or 6 times a year...it's that good.

I've basically had everything here. It's really good and the most authentic Greek restaurant I've been to in the Boston area. Sometimes service can we spotty but the food glazes over any shortfalls it has. I highly recommend their Greek chicken salad and kebabs.

Everything was good, except the commercial radio in the dining room. Food is fresh, decent portions, presented on the plate in an appealing way, and very flavorful. Service is prompt and courteous. Decor is really quite charming, artwork and murals on the walls. It would have been four stars; they lose one star because they played Magic 106.7 over the stereo: I really, really hate hearing commercials while I'm eating. The owners should get satellite radio or an iPod so we don't have to be YELLED AT BY RADIO ANNOUNCERS while we're trying to eat.

Bomb.com (don't click that) Gyro and Lamb plate are great. Don't expect the best service in the world but it's not bad either. All very nice, seems like they get a little stressed when busy.

This place is great and reasonably priced. The reviews about the service are on point. You don't come here for the great service, but hey, they aren't trying to sell themselves as high end. Try the lamb kebabs, they really hit the spot. Wonderfully spiced and delicious!

I was ssssoooo close to making this only 3 stars but finally decided on the 4 because the food and atmosphere more than makes up for it. The decor is gorgeous and welcoming, I loved the Greek murals along the dining room wall. We were there on a weeknight and practically every table was filled, always a great sign that we came to the right place. I stared at a wall of wine in my seat all night, another nice touch. But my goodness, the service here was terribad. Waitresses should not be magicians and disappear at the drop of a hat. Ours played the David Copperfield role all night and did just that. Drink is empty? Too bad, you won't have it refilled for at least 10 - 15 minutes. Want your bill? Oooopppsss, you'll be waiting on that too. The moussaka and gyros may be the only thing I ever order here, if I do decide to return and have a sit down meal. In fact, the moussaka may have been the best I've ever had, I have another craving for it just thinking about it. The gyro lamb meat was perfectly seasoned and they got my order right when I didn't want a few certain veggies in it. The only small issue with it is that the pita didn't taste 100% fresh, I guess they don't make their own which is a letdown. Can you please get your act together and fix the service problem? I love your trofi but hate your servitÃ³ra. I can laugh about how long everything took after the fact but at the time I was pretty peeved.

I went here for an authentic greek gyro but the gyro was not even close to a greek gyro. So yeah I was disappointed and will not go back. The location was nice but no parking. I guess that is it for me and this place.

I've been frequenting this place since high school! Then it started because the prices were reasonable for a massive quantity of food. I continued going for those reasons and for the fact that everything on the menu is amazing! The pastitsio is my favorite guilty pleasure food and I could eat their Greek salad and stuffed grape leaves every day for the rest of my life! If you're thinking about coming here, just go ahead and do it. You won't regret it!!

Ive grown up going here. It deserves to be in the deliciousness hall of fame. Great servers. Eat this: Egg lemon soup, white bean soup, lentil soup. Horitaki salad, tzatziki, octopus, fried calamari Baked lamb, moussaka, gyro. Rice pudding. Hiella.

After all the hype and watching this place on Diners Drive Ins and Dives... I finaly tried it...and in my opinion it was just that - hype. Now on Foodler, I placed a deliver order (perhaps the problem?). $6 delivery fee is redic. Prices: Gyro plate with a side of spinach pie. Prices were a bit steep. $5.50 for a 4 inch triangle of pie. $11.95 for a gyro plate which included a ton of rice and a large salad. Food: The gyro itself was covered in sauce (too much for my liking), had specks of lettuce, plenty of red onion, a single tomato slice, and semi dry meat (maybe it sat with the delivery guy too long?). The meat was seasoned well, although I could hardly taste it under the globs of sauce. The rice was not like any pilaf I've tasted. More of a tomato flavor. The salad had a nice lemony dressing and a chunk of feta. The leaves were wilted bc of the dressing so dressing on the side (for delivery) is recommened. Sad to be disappointed. It was by no means "bad", but I was expecting more given all the 5 star reviews. I would recommend going to the restaurant instead of delivery.

Good place - good portions - had lamb shish kabab and the hubs had corner special gyro - both were delish ! For coffee lovers - try the Greek coffee - but don't if you planning to take nap after the meal :)

The gyro is better than most other Greek places in the area and the tzatziki is amazing. Strangely though, the Greek dressing is nearly flavorless. Pro tip: as for extra tzatziki and use it as salad dressing.

Going to have to agree with all the good reviews and say that Greek Corner Restaurant is great! Came here with some friends early Saturday evening, and the place was already packed! We snagged one of the last free tables. Started with the sampler plate - it's a great way to try a little bit of everything! They say it's for 2, but we easily shared it between 4 people. The TARAMOSALATA - red caviar blended with bread and spices, didn't sound too great, but ended up being AMAZING. I need a tub of this right now. The gyros were packed with yummy meat and delicious. I couldn't finish mine and am eating the leftovers as I type. Mmmm gyro-smelling hands. =P The service was a bit slow and spotty, but that's ok because it was super packed and our waitress was really nice when she did stop by. Just be prepared to chill for a bit if you're coming during peak hours. There were about 15 people waiting for tables at 8pm. There was a little snafu with the check - they charged us for an extra app. We pointed it out on the way out and they were super cool about it and promptly refunded us. We'll be back! Perhaps for takeout instead of dining in. :)

Love love love this place ! The wall art with Santorini's beautiful landscape..the table mats with the country's and the islands map and ofcourse the sumptuous food..makes this the best spot for Greek food. Wondering about the prices?- they are friendly to your pockets too ! The best way to try few things together is to order the Sampler Plate - Taramosalata, hummus and eggplant salad are definitely my favs. Their fried eggplant is to die for. Wrap them in the Pita with some tzatziki..So good ! Having tried Greek food back in Greece; their gyros are as authentic as they can get. The meat is so flavorful and well done..a bite into the Gyro, you can taste the warm Pita..so fresh..slightly crispy..followed by the meat (ground beef and lamb is the best) and ending with the tzatziki sauce-home made, always fresh and creamy...Mmmmm my taste-buds are salivating already !! However, on the service front they can do a lot better. I categorize this place as a restaurant I go to because the food is fantastic but service is pathetic. Every time you need something, it takes 10-15 minutes to get a server's attention. Very rarely do they stop by themselves, since they are always so busy chatting with each other. Oh well..as long as I get those Gyros, I really don't care about anything else. The gyros make my soul so happy and satisfied that nothing in the world matters anymore. PS: They offer free pita bread at the beginning of the meal. Pay a dollar or so extra, but get the warm (grilled) Pita's..so so good that you will never eat those cold pitas again!

I live in the neighborhood and really want to like this place, but I've been here twice and I'm not sure there will be a third. The good: It's a cozy space, and take-out is easy and efficient. The bad: The food. The first time, the gyro plate was so salty I could barely eat it. The second time, I got a gyro wrap (house sandwich) to go. The poor vegetables were completely SMOTHERED in a garlicky yoghurt sauce, and the pita was so greasy that the paper covering it was soaked through with oil. The lamb was greasy and salty. The whole thing was just assembled very carelessly. Sigh. I feel like instead of making an effort to put out thoughtfully prepared food, this restaurant just dumps on salt/sauce/oil, and hopes for the best. I am so disappointed!

LOVE the Greek Corner. It's a fun, busy atmosphere with great tasting food, good portions and reasonable prices. I enjoy the brisk and friendly service--it always makes me think of an Greek grandmother's kitchen who loves you but tells you to move your butt so that she can stir the soup. (I'm not sure even I know what that means--but maybe you do. And, full disclosure, I don't know any Greek grandmothers!) My only wish is that it had full booths. But, one can't have everything! A definite favorite for all the Greek foods you would want!

Greek food is just one of those cuisines that my boyfriend and I just go gaga over. We had talked about coming here for way to long, and finally just made a date of it last Friday night. I studied abroad in Athens, so anything that KIND OF touches the incredible food I ate in Greece is something I am VERY interested in. As you find at most Greek places, the foods reasonably priced. My biggest issue is trying not to order everything on the menu. For two, we ate a good sized meal. Started with the avgolemono - a lemony chicken and rice soup that I would swim in if I could. They nailed that. Then we got the horiatiki salad (a true greek salad: tomatoes, green peppers, onions, cucumbers, olvies, oregano and feta) - it was good, but I've had better. The falafel was actually very dry. It was fine when I smothered it in tsatziki, but honestly what isn't? The sampler plate I'd highly recommend if you're like me and want to eat everything on the menu - you get a couple scoops of their popular starters (grape leaves, tsatziki, taramosalata, spinach pie, hommus, tabouleh, feta, eggplant salad and olives). I'd say it's better for two than four because you get two of everything and it comes on a plate smaller than your average dinner plate, so order another one if you have four people. Last but not least, we wanted lamb. Greeks (and really any Mediterranean kitchen) are pretty consistent with making mouth-watering lamb. So we order the Souvlaki and eat a couple bites and think "hmmm this seems really over cooked" and then we start to look at it more closely and notice its white-ish color. Our "lamb" was definitely PORK. We were kind of bummed out, so we asked another waitress if it could be pork by any chance. She played Switzerland and said she'd check with our server and the kitchen. (No lady, look at my food) Our server comes over and assures us she put lamb on the ticket - which we weren't arguing, we just thought maybe someone gave us the wrong plate. It was really weird that no one actually inspected our food or thought to bring it to the kitchen, so we just sadly moped out leaving our less than half eaten pork souvlaki to go to waste. On the other hand the baklava was pretty good, and it looked like they had some decent lunch options under $10.

This little restaurant is where I fell in love with the Gyro, the chicken, the warm pita, and that addicting yogurt cucumber sauce. Every other gyro in the city pales in comparison. I never thought I'd appreciate a good grape leaf, the assumption of the texture and taste was off putting. Assuming makes an ass out of me and only me, they are yummy, by far my favorite appetizers. Lentil soup is warmth and love in a bowl. Lastly, staff is kind and quick to please, so happy to give them my business.

Morris M.

Only been there twice, first time was bad, second time was awesome. 1st time: Lamb Shish Kebab -- Oops! Wrong food. The lamb was too dried to me, not even close to "delicious" as they wrote on the description. 2nd time: Moussaka -- Oops! Right food. Great taste, thought a little bit too greedy.

Been going to Greek Corner for about a year now - it's a bit far to travel for me and the parking can be problematic but the food is the best Greek I've found so far so it's worth the hassle. Granted, it's Americanized Greek, but it's always good, it's fresh, the portions are huge and the prices are reasonable. Ate there a few weeks ago - had the gyros platter and fries, my friend had the same with the homemade chicken soup which was excellent. The service can leave a lot to be desired - it's a little less than it should be, not always attentive but never too difficult to flag them down if you need something. They do big business on takeout. It's not a fancy place by any stretch of the imagination but it's clean and the food makes up for the shabby interior. Wish it was a little closer to my home so I could visit more often. But I'm happy tp go there when I can.

I'm Greek, and was raised with Yiayia's home cookin' from Athens. So I was there to be WOWED. I'll be straightforward with this one. The apps. Don't bother with the Saganaki - small portion and not worth it. Fried zuchini was great but you have to order it with tzatziki to dip. Tzatziki was pretty good. Lentil soup was great as was the Avgolemono. Their speciality GYRO. Fantastic. Get one. They skimped on the szatiki, but I had some leftover from the apps, so I was ok. I felt a bit cheated when I got the check though. I swear I saw fries,salad,or soup with your gyro - but I was charged extra for my soup. I asked the waitress, and she said it was extra, and I didn't feel like challenging it any further. My husband had the pastitsio and he said I made better - there was very little meat in it, and it was very dry - like it was an old piece. So, there you have it. The Greek Corner has some amazing authentic Greek food, some not so great, mediocre borderline miserable waitstaff (but she also was an authentic Greek!). It is definitely worth giving it a try!!

The pita that the gyro is made with is flaky/buttery on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The yogurt sauce is amazing and the house lemon/chicken/rice soup is delicious and perfect on a chilly day!

Madeline L.

I LOVE THIS PLACE. As an authentic greek girl as well as an all around food lover I can totally vouch for the Greek Corner. I recommend a regular or chicken gyro sandwich, the pastisio, the fried calamari, the moussaka, or the avgolemono soup, just to name my favorites. I live a few blocks from here and I go with my family once or twice a week on average. The waitstaff is extremely nice and friendly, but sometimes a little slow, but that is exactly what service is like in Greece, so get over it Americans! This is probably my favorite restaurant in the neighborhood and I can't say enough great things about it!!!

Andrew H.

I agree strongly with the 'its freezing' comment. I kept my down jacket on the whole time. Other than that the food is well above average and it is cheap. I had the falafel to start and a lamb special souvlaki. I'll definitely be back.

Nicely marinated meats, light and fluffy pita, non-greasy gyros, and overall very tasty greek food.

Del P.

I see plenty of positive reviews for their 'corner gyro', I have to say that these people never had a real& good gyro sandwich. The meat is not actually from a gyro; big, round, spins and chills in front of a fire, oh no, not even close. It's strips of mystery meat bought in a container and cooked on a griddle before being served.. It tastes ok with bread lettuce tomato onion and tazitki sauce( what wouldn't?Â¿) but its not what I'd want to put into my body. Yes the sandwich is under $7 but it still is a disgrace to the name gyro. That's the only thing I tried as a take-out, I hope the appetizers/ salads are better but I doubt I'll be back to try.

5 stars on the food. 1 star on the service. This was my first time dining at Greek Corner. I was impressed by the food. Great, savory flavor. I might come back only for take out. I can't give my recommendation for their service. We were seated and reviewed the menu. All looked great. I had to try the moussaka, since I haven't had it in some time. Took a few minutes to decide, but I made a firm decision. On this hot 90 degree day, I was hoping that our server would come around, but we waited at least 5 minutes before being greeted. She swoops in and asks, "do you know what you want?" Very punctual. Got our orders in... waited a bit... Haven't seen our server for a little while. Finally our hummus plate arrived. Delicious. Waited some more... our glasses were empty, haven't seen our server for a while... Waited some more. Our dinner came, finally. Server noticed our glasses were empty. Asked, "Want a little more water?"... Nodded for acknowledgement. Hadn't seen our server in some time... Waited some more, asked for someone else to top off for water. I was getting frustrated. Thirsty on a hot day. Makes sense? 15 minutes went by, and we found our server holding a filthy bucket and took another table's check. 5 minutes later, she asks, "all set?" I wanted to wrap up to go. 5 minutes later, she appears with a Styrofoam box, and I wrapped it up myself. I decided to pay the bill at the counter to expedite the process. I just wanted out of there. Just before leaving, I asked for a bag. Lady held up her index finger and said, "one minute" and scooted her way past me. So, there's no warm and intimate service if that's what you're looking for. No knock on the food. Just call ahead and get it to go. Do not sit down.

Love Love LOVE this place!!! Get the greek salad with chicken and a side of tsadziki. Very kitch, but warm family-run vibe to the place. Nice servers. Lots of families so it's boisterous...if you're looking for quiet date spot, this ain't it. BUT...for something proximate to a home-cooked, healthy meal, you can't go wrong. Also the lemon soup is great.

Mando L.

I had friends over and we decided to get some take-out that wasn't pizza - how refreshing! This place has excellent food and it's nice to switch it up from the pizza/Chinese/Thai food conundrum. I got Greek Salad which was perfect and the marinated octopus, tsatsiki and pita - all were super tasty and filling but lighter than your average take-out fare. Cheap and delicious, highly recommended.

One of my favorites for affordable and traditional Greek food. Great hummus and my favorite spanakopita around. The lines can be long on weekends and there is little interior room to wait so winters are tough. Parking is also limited.

Being Greek I often miss having authentic greek food around. I discovered Greek corner a few months back and I have already been there a couple of times. I have tried souvlaki, saganaki, fried squash and Greek salad. It was pretty decent and authentic for Americanized Greek food. Definitely one of my top greek restaurants in Boston.
(4)
Tulan K.

The food was ok. The sampler plate was nice as well as the lentil soup. The schwarma dish was nice . The same exact kind of beef/lamb schwarma as Cafe jaffa in boston. Leads me to believe both uses ready schwarma rolls and just shaves it and gives it to customer. Not what I saw in the diner drive-in and dives episode where they made fresh one.

It says they're open til 10pm. Showed up at 9:30 and the unwelcome host told us "they just turned the grill off". Bull. If your restaurant closes at 10 why the heck is your grill off at 9:30pm. Restaurant was FULL of people. P.S. I have worked as a waitress at 5 different restaurants and you are NEVER allowed to turn customers away with these bull excuses. You seat and serve up until the moment the door closes and at some of the better restaurants I've worked at you serve even beyond closing time. Terrible, unwelcome host (hipster dude with glasses and a beard). Will never go back.

Faith K.

I used to love this place for quick, convenient Greek food, but after my most recent visit I have to say the quality has diminished. The feta was odd but otherwise everything tasted fine.. However, I had heartburn and felt awful for the rest of the day. My husband and Yiayia were happy with their meals, but were both very burpy for hours after. On the bright side, the service was solid.

Boston is a tough place for greek food, and I know. I'm from Queens. I came here on a Friday night and it was quite busy. They must have been in a rush because my Moussaka was a bit cold on one side. The waitress was running around so feverishly that I just ate it. Then it took about 20 minutes to pay our check. Not bad, but not great. A pretty good deal though.

I go here a lot with my co-worker and it is our favorite lunch spot. The appetizer sampler platter is great - it comes with all your favorite greek snacks and every time we get it we finish it. Their gyros are really good and their fries are surprisingly awesome for any kind of restaurant. I definitely recommend this place, I've never been disappointed!

Anastasia R.

I have been missing out on this little treasure for like 12 years. I usually take a pass on Greek restaurants because the ones I've been too over season their salads and overcook their meat, then expect you to forgive them because they can make baklava. Like it's hard to make phyllo dough, honey, and nuts taste good. Having had 2 Greek roommates in my life, I had the good stuff and I don't tolerate mediocrity. At the Greek corner, they do everything right. The pork souvlaki is a juicy delight, as is the sample platter which has spinach pie, grape leaves, hummus and other treats. And of course the baklava is fantastic (not that that's a challenge, but they still get credit for finishing strong).
(5)
Althea D.

This is the best Greek food I've ever had in a restaurant. The chicken kebab is amazing, the pastitso is amazing (it's not tomato-ey as the menu suggests), and the house salad dressing is so good I could drink it out of a cup. The restaurant is very casual and the prices are reasonable. I wish I lived closer as I'd go far more often.

Marissa C.

Serving size here is HUGE. Huuuuuuuge. I ordered a Gyro Plate, which is a large plate filled half with a large green salad with vinaigrette and half with a lot of french fries. On top of the salad and french fries was over 6 oz. of gyro meat - more than I could ever eat in one sitting. I also substituted "greek fries" (skin still on, lots of seasoning, finely sprinkled cheese) for the regular, which made my plate even more visually interesting. The plate came with a cup of lentil soup, a very large chunk of feta, a juicy tomato wedge, and 5-6 slices of pita bread. The lentil soup was delicious and lemony. Also ordered were a large spinach pie (a triangle with a 6"+ base) and a sizable greek salad full of feta and olives (but maybe a little too much dressing for me - I'd ask for it on the side next time). It was a little difficult to get past the front door due to the line of people waiting at the take-out counter (the sign of a good product!), but the service during lunchtime was friendly and accommodating. Next time I'll try the souvlaki!

Just an all around neighborhood restaurant. Chicken seemed like it was good quality and the food (chicken kabob platter the first time, and gyro second time) was pretty good. though their salad is a huge dissappoint. good feta but weak on the seasoning/dressing. pita on the gyro wasn't fresh. but great overall value. They also take credit cards with no minimums, which is great.

Traci K.

The food at Greek Corner is ok. The spanakopita was tasty. The gyro plate was nice (though I wished it had come with some pita). The moussaka was slightly under-seasoned, but all in all decent. The service, while friendly was practically nonexistent. Once seated, we waited fifteen minutes before anyone even came over and acknowledged our presence. Once we ordered, the food arrived promptly, but no one came to follow up. How was the meal? Was there anything we needed? (Yes, I want some pita, pls.) Nada. Once the meal was history, no one came to clear our plates and after almost a half hour or waiting, we had to flag someone down to get the check. I guess I would go back for take-out, but I don't think I'll be back to sit down.

Inge M.

I love Greek Corner! Today we drove 45 minutes to get there... Yes, it is that great. We were 6 people and a baby. We called to make a booking but was told no reservations are taken over weekends. My husband asked if high chairs were available. The person he spoke with said yes, and asked what time we would be there for lunch. Ronald said we will be 6 people and we will be there at 12:30pm. On arrival we were greeted by an arrogant young man. My voice is gone due to a cold and he told me to speak up when I told them we were the 6 people who had called earlier. He said they don't take reservations and do not have a high chair for us because they have a reservation for 10 people" and they booked 6 high chairs. No high chair was thus available to us. My husband reminded him that we had called and enquired, he replied that they do have chairs, just not available to us... I lost my appetite and my patience with this little boy. We left and went elsewhere. I did return after lunch to discuss my disappointment with the way he had treated us. He told me "goodbye" and "sorry to hear" while the other male waiter laughed at me. The kitchen staff also overheard this conversation. They are amazing and always prepare THE best food! Young man, you ruined my lunch and missed out on serving 4 new customers! You are in the service industry and I would suggest you think before you speak. You are rude! Your establishment deserves employees with improved judgement.

I was able to eat inside while my grandmother was visiting, and we had a lovely meal. The gyro was yummy! I am not a fan of the baklava... it was a very small piece and didn't seem fresh. I will probably still be back for the gyro though.

I've been meaning to try this place for a while, I finally did, and it's now one of my Boston favorites. The vegetarian plate is a real deal ...so much food, so much variety and absolutely delicious. The Galaktoboureko (Dessert) is mouthwateringly delicious with a greek coffee. I can't wait to go back.

One of our top places to bring out of town guests. The food is always GREAT. Food is 5 stars no question. Service has been very hit or miss in the past. Our last couple visits have been very pleasant, however we've had a couple where the service would warrant a lower rating. Hopefully the service trend continues. Value is incredible, most appetizers are 5$-10$. Entrees/Sandwiches range from 7-20$. Portions are large and sandwiches are enough for dinner with an app. Favorite Apps (come with plenty of pita bread): -Falafel (2 huge falafel's (probably the best tasting in the area) with hummus, pita bread, and tabbouleh, $5.95) -Eggplant Spread (creamy eggplant spread, great taste, ~$5.95) Sandwiches: -Gyro (ground lamb and beef, lettuce, tomatoes, onion, and tzatziki sauce in pita) -Corner's Special Souvlaki (better than the gyro IMO, try it! chunks of marinated lamb, tender and delicious. only difference from the gyro is the meat cut) The best part of these sandwiches are the pita bread (fresh, hot and fluffy), and the tzatziki sauce (amazing). Sandwiches are around 7.50$ each. Entrees: Chicken Kebabs - seem to be grilled over characoal and marinated in something delicious. You haven't had many or any chicken dishes this good and this cheap before. Comes with rice and salad for around 12$ Tips : Parking is street but not bad since it's North Cambridge. There can be a decent wait primetime fridays/saturdays (never more than 30mins). Come and enjoy! If you were our friends we would bring you here (that's saying a lot).

Came here after good reviews of their Greek goodness and was not disappointed. Their hummus was yummy, pita bread soft, and their gyro plate plentiful. The "Greek fries" were a treat with the bonus olive oil and parmesan cheese sprinkled on them. The real winner was dessert. I know another Yelper on here mentioned that you can't mess up phyllo dough, honey and nuts, BUT, you CAN make it absolutely scrumptuous and they DO. My date and I both agreed that this was by far the best baklava we have had. Why? Because unlike others that are quite dense and heavy, their baklava was light, airy, and (of course) absolutely delicious. We split one serving (think small pie slice) but I would recommend getting your own--it's that good. The cinnamon sprinkled on top was just the right amount too. Scraped the plate, we did (mmhmmm insert Yoda voice here for absolutely no reason). :)

I love gyros and am always searching for the best in the area. I dragged Husby here on a Sunday afternoon right before the Pats game so it was fairly empty. We started off with the spanakopita, which was flaky but a bit dry with too much dill - still tasty. I got the combo with avgolemono, which was tart enough and still creamy. However, the star of the meal was the gyros. I got the ground beef and lamb so it had that hearty meatiness that I love so much. Lots of fresh veggies and garlicky tzatziki complemented the meat wonderfully. Our server was pleasant and there was a good pace on the dishes as they came out. No complaints here. I am looking forward to coming back!

I'm a fiend for a good greek salad. Since moving to Somerville, I hadn't found one that fit the bill. Finally, I did a Yelp search in order to hunt one down. I finally went here and voila - I was satiated. The menu is classic, the food yummy and it has a nice family, neighborhood, unpretentious feel. It's become a favorite haunt.

Went with a friend who's visited family in Greece multiple times.... She approved! I've been there twice. Both times I enjoyed the food. Most recently, on a Sunday evening, I had the lamb kabobs. Tender meat cooked well, medium, well- still very juicy. Plates are large - I could have split the lamb kabobs. The pita bread was divine and the hummus was legit. The staff there has been friendly and professional both times. They clearly take pride in their Greek heritage, Greek food, and customer service. If you want to get in and out quickly, order it to go, and come pick it up though. This is definitely a "sit, enjoy, and actually talk to your friends or date"-type of place. It's the kind of unpretentious place that makes me feel right at home. They also have a type of wine that my friend says her grandparents literally add to everything back in Greece (soda, seltzer, etc.) and drink straight. We were on our way to yoga, otherwise we would have ordered wine too. ...Next time!

bottom line: good food, prices, and service I ordered the Corner's Special Gyro with fries for ($9.50) and a lemonade ($1.50). The gyro was delicious and the fries were better than average. The lemonade was homemade and it came with a refill. The waiter was helpful and friendly. I've got no complaints about the Greek Corner and I'm definitely going to come back.

I live walking distance from this place and have been here multiple times, mostly for takeout but once or twice for sit in. Service is usually okay give or take (as in not stellar but not terrible) but I appreciate the consistency and it's not like I come to a restaurant like this and expect to be wowed by the waitstaff, yanno? But...the food is SOLID! I usually go for the gyro, as it is their special. However, I think all of their dishes with lamb are good, which is saying a lot because I don't really like lamb that much. But it seems the most flavorful out of the meats I've tried here. I also like their yogurt sauce. Once, I came here with a friend from Cyprus (it's an island off the coast of Greece/Turkey) and she told me that the food here was authentic enough to remind her of home. Not that I really care about the authenticity as long as the food is good, but props to Greek Corner! One suggestion for improvement: they could work on their fries though. They are soggy and were served lukewarm even when I ate in. Eh, skip.

Who woulda thought that I'd find the BEST GYROS EVER at a small little shop in cambridge? Jenny S. and I ordered the sampler plate ( yelp.com/biz_photos/u0Cvâ€¦ ), which was made for exactly 2 people (had 2 of everything). Came with a garlic-y yogurt sauce, hummus, dry feta, some type of greek caviar (i think it was "taramosalata?", stuffed grape leaves (just whatever), olives, cucumbers, tomatoes, soggy spanikopita, and pita bread. It wasn't too bad, but I think if you're gonna something, ORDER THE GYRO (which I shall explain next) EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT ABOUT IT ( yelp.com/biz_photos/u0Cvâ€¦ ): Filling was perfectly balanced with the carbiness and slight oiliness of the grilled, thick pita bread. MEAT was SEARED and flavored to perfection. Vegetables added a nice crisp freshness to it and oh mahh gawwddd. I WANT ONE NOW. ..Can't you tell that the gyro's as good as sex for me? No but really, overall, come here for the gyro.. I've had a lot of gyros in my life BUT greek corner definitely takes the cake!

Terrific! I've been going for years and it is always great. My wife got the lamb shish kabob plate w rice and salad and it was perfect. Tender and flavorful. I got the chicken kabob plate also w rice and salad and it was perfect. This is the best meal for the money. And our server was delightful. We were w our 6 yr old daughter and she was super friendly and accommodating.

My go-to place for a consistently delicious grilled chicken dinner. Generous portions, with large pieces of white meat chicken, rice and salad. I have had a few other dinners there as well, all good. Very reasonably priced, and always consistent. Better for take-out than sit-down I've found.

This is a pretty neat place. Total neighborhood joint in North Cambridge, a healthy walk north from Porter Square. The food was nicely prepared and very tasty, and the service was warm and neighborly. Although not necessarily close to anything real interesting, its a great gem and worth the trek to dine here...

I went here for the first time last week with a friend who I traveled Cyprus and Greece with. We wanted a taste of some authentic, delicious Greek cuisine and that's what we got! I ordered the chicken gyro lunch special and it was perfect. The tzatziki was delicious. Service was okay, but overall happy with my meal. Thanks so much!

Aimee M.

Just went here tonight... so here first are all the negatives: There was a fruit fly and a fly flying about Two different waitress came to take our order They brought my partner lamb when she ordered chicken and she ordered rice and they brought her fries My fries were slightly undercooked The pita served with the hummus were not the best, they should have served hot flat bread that they use for the gyro Could have done without the sad salad that came with my platter Parking on a Friday night at 7 was really hard OK now that that is all out of the way my gyro rocked! The hummus was good also, minus the pita served with it. I took some baklava home with me that was also good. Portions were good but I could have used one more slice of meat in my gyro. Yes, I will be coming here again but most likely will get take out which had an equally long line as the line for tables but I would rather eat this food at home.

Perhaps we just came on a bad day, but I don't see how the Greek Corner gets so many 4's and 5's. Things were somewhat confused when we came in the door. People were milling about, and no one came to seat us for almost 10 minutes, despite many open tables. When we were seated, three different servers came to take our order. The A/C was out of order (?), and it was quite hot inside. We shared an appetizer plate. The plate was average size, with lots of varieties of appetizers, but I found the flavors rather muted. The tzatziki, for instance, did not have enough garlic compared to what I am used to. The spanikopita was tasty but quite soggy. The feta and olives were good. The entrees were a mixed bag. My beef brochette was way overcooked even had I wanted it well done (and they didn't ask how I wanted it), quite chewy (even for my tastes, and I like meat with a lot of texture), and way under marinated. My wife's vegetarian platter was to her liking, except for the falafel, which was overcooked and gritty. Parking is OK, since the location is far enough from Porter Square. Prices are reasonable, and service is good. It's hard to find good Greek food in Boston. If you're nearby, the value is OK, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here.

Krystal C.

Service: 3/5 (i'll give 4/5 to my waitress. She was very nice. But when my cousin and I went in the restaurant, no one say anything to us and we were stood at the in front of the counter and waited for a few minutes even there were few ladies stood behind the counter.) Lamp chop: 4/5 Fried Calamari: 3/5 Grilled Sausage: 4/5
(4)
David H.

The food is as close to authentic Greek cuisine as you'll get in Boston, and having family over there, I've been to Greece more times than I can count. The service, however, is hit or miss. The last three times I've been, we've had to wait a very long time to be waited on. We sat at our table for more than five minutes before being asked if we wanted a drink. The food comes out fast once you order, but it's getting to the ordering part that takes forever. Plus, once you're waiting for the bill, the staff disappears, and again once you wait to pay them. I keep putting up with it because the food is good, and there aren't many authentic Greek restaurants in the neighborhood, but my patience is wearing thin.

Crazy busy on a Saturday night. Not so busy that we left though. Business is brisk with tables turning over often. The staff is efficient and on top of things - not super personable but I wouldn't be either working in a packed to the gills restaurant. The food is very good - the falafel is delicious and the pork souvlaki is awesome. Fresh, very flavorful, and good portions.

Hair D.

Great tasting Greek food at the best prices! This is much better than Steve's Greek on Newbury St in Boston. Favorite menu items are gyro wraps, AVGOLEMONO, MOUSSAKA, PASTITSO along with the best fried calamari and Greek salad. Any of the appetizers are great! But make sure you order GALAKTOBOUREKO for desert, its awesome! Its a small place and usually gets very busy most nights. Get there early or try going for a late lunch/early dinner. Metered parking on Mass Ave as well as bus service to Arlington Heights and Harvard Sq.

Came here for dinner over the weekend and the place was packed. This is a no frills Greek Restaurant tucked away on a corner of Mass Ave. The sign isn't that flashy, so you would miss the restaurant unless you were looking for it. There's no waiting list or reservations, you just show up and wait in line. The Gyro meat is great, as are their french fries, which appeared to me to be fresh cut, not prepared from frozen storebought fries like most restaurants. Get the flaming cheese app, it tastes meaty and delicious. Only criticism is that I wish that they heated up the pita before bringing it out, but otherwise, the food is great and very reasonably priced.

S Z.

Pretty decent Greek. A bit too much sauce on the gyro, but the bread was soft and fresh. The meat was flavorful too. I think the best part was the price- only 6.50 for a gyro? Yes please!

Vanessa L.

The decor of the place looks like it could need an update but hey, we didn't come here for the decor, we came here for the food. =) I thought the place I went to in San Jose, CA had the best gyro I've ever had but I think they've been beaten by the ones I had here. Delish!! Would definitely come back again.

Birds chirping... The sun shining through my blinds, a warm breeze making its way through my bedroom window... and... now... imagine the opposite. The weather was terrible outside. Cold rain, mist, and darkness. There was no way I was going out in that kind of weather so what better occasion to get something delivered. My browser launched, I made my way over to Foodler.com and glanced at some of the various types of food I could get. Just instants later, I had picked: Greek Corner Restaurant it shall be. I had never been there although I've driven by it many times. I decided to go for the corner's special souvlaki; in this place, I went for lamb but you can get it with pork instead. It's marinated in herbs and spices and then grilled on charcoal. It is served inside of a pita bread with some tomatoes, lettuce, parsley, onions and some wonderful cucumber yogurt sauce. The sandwich was great. I also went for some spanakopita (spinach pie) and was looking forward to eating it. It's essentially layers of filo dough with some cheese and spinach. The only snag I hit was the fact that there was also a ton of dill in there. I don't like dill. Not one bit. I still ate some of it but I wasn't too thrilled by it. If one liked dill, I'm pretty sure that it would have been good though. Although it was delivered, the meal was quite enjoyable and the prices were pretty good as well. I look forward to returning there and experience it from inside the place next time.

I had high hopes for this place due to fellow Yelpers' reviews as well as a friend's recommendation. I wanted to love it. And maybe I will some other time, but... Went to Greek Corner on a Friday night. It wasn't too busy as it was past 9pm. Had a taramosalata appetizer and was very happy with it. It was delicious. Then came a gyro sandwich plate with salad and fries. The meat was well marinated, but the tsatziki sauce as well as the salad dressing were so garlicky and my stomach can't take too much garlic. I even felt it in my mouth when I woke up 12 hours after having dinner. Next time I go there I'll try the lamb shank as it looked so delicious. The service was ok, nothing special. We ordered and she brought our food to the table. No cartwheels or anything of that sort. I'm sure, I'll be back and will make sure to ask for garlic-free food.

Ladyjane S.

Don't listen to the naysayers who've been here ONCE and travelled from NY, blah blah blah... This place is awesome. I've been coming here for years and the food is ridiculously good. I always get the vegetarian platter but I've also gotten the gyros and pastisio and avgolemono soup. Everything I've had has been great. The one complaint I have is the pita they give you with the platters. They're dry and cardboardy and even when they're fresh the seem stale. I wish they gave you the gyro pita instead. Spinach pie also is not that great. Make it yourself. Service is hit or miss, but I don't come for the service. I come for the hummus, falafel, teramozsalata, galaktobouriko (sp???) and Mythos!

Staff seemed a little distracted and looked like they were having a lot of fun with eachother, but I can forgive that since the food and atmosphere was so great. I will definetly be returning! Love the change of pace from burgers and fries or italian. The two of us split an appetizer plate and it was more than enough food, and was fresh and tasty. New favorite!

Kathy C.

I like this place! The first thing I noticed as I sat down was a huge picture of Guy Fieri with his autograph. He was apparently here for his show Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives, a show I love. The food is great, the menu is huge, the prices are cheap, the service is decent, the interior is spacious, and the location is easy to find. It got crowded as my friend and I left, so it must be a local hit. I had the Corner Special Gyro which had beef & lamb w/seasonings. I liked it, and the pita bread is warm and super soft. Yum!

For a long time, I was down on Greek Corner- it felt too much like a diner for me (the paper placemats with that trademark gold border, the bright lights) with a faux Greek motif, too decor-less to warrant a trip to that still slightly-dead zone between the far reaches of Porter and the beginnings of Arlington. But tonight I put my diner biases to the side, and I actually found Greek Corner to be good - I had the veggie plate (spinach pie, two stuffed grape leaves, falafel, greek salad, hummus, and french fries - for $10.95) -- all of it was enjoyable, and the grape leaves (one of my all time favorite foods) and spinach pie were both exquisite. In fact, the only disappointing part of the plate was the falafel which was far too hard on the outside and far too flavorless on the inside. All this to say, yes, Greek Corner lacks ambience, but the food and friendly staff make up for it. If you find yourself in that northern Mass Ave corridor and you're craving a fairly quick, fairly inexpensive meal, Greek Corner is a good spot. And if you're craving that diner feeling, Greek Corner just might be the place for you.

Why are your gyros so mouthwatering and delicious Greek Corner Restaurant? It's almost as if they have some sort of gravitational pull on me. I can't get enough of you. Although everything on their menu is pretty darn tasty, my favorite has to be the chicken gyro with some extra cucumber yogurt sauce. I also get the greek fries on the side. These fries must be from another planet or something. They are crazy good. The fries are homemade with the skins on & topped with grated cheese, oregano and lemon juice. I'm sitting here drooling for a bite of their gyro and fries. Expect a visit from me soon Greek Corner!

If we could give our experience with the Greek Corner Restaurant zero stars we would!! My partner and have had great success and have enjoyed many meals using Grub Hub. We want to be clear that our issue is with the Restaurant. The one + was on-time delivery, it was all downhill from there. After taking the food, we realized that the dessert was missing. Dessert! The best part!! We called, and were cut off mid-sentence, and rudely told to call the delivery service. No apology, simply cut off. When we tried to fully explain the situation, cut off again. Ok, I understand that the Restaurant hires a third party delivery service, and that GrubHub is also contracted out, however, the buck stops with the place serving the food, as far as we are concerned. If he would have been nicer, maybe even offer an apology and an explanation, we would have been on our way... but he hung up on us. Our meal was over $60 including almost $20 in tip and delivery fees - our hard earned money wasted. I chatted (great service!) with a representative from GrubHub and our account was credited for the item, and we received a code for $ off a future purchase. We were also told (TAKE HEED!!) that it is best to filter searches on the weekend to filter out businesses who hire delivery services. Will do! One other thing: I am a vegetarian, though not exceptionally picky. I had asked that they separate the meat and veggie apps into different boxes. They didn't do this, which I would normally not complain about (maybe they didn't see my friendly note?) but the item containing fish eggs on the platter was splattered on at least half of the other items in the box. Really? Thanks for that. As for the rest of the food? Nothing spectacular. I feel bad not including more about the food in the review, but the service really spoiled my appetite. At least now we know to steer clear (of delivery services that charge extra, AND this place) and we hope that they rectify their customer service for the sake of their business, because we can't imagine that many people in the Boston area enjoy being treated like crap. Also, to the person who wrote the review about the fries being gross and soggy - nothing's changed!!

My girlfriend and I had been to Greek Corner about two years ago and loved it, so we were excited to make it back. Unfortunately, the return trip wasn't as good as we were hoping for. We started by splitting tzatziki and saganaki (fried cheese). The tzatziki was nice, but the saganaki was frankly, gross. It came to our table in flames, and whatever alcohol was used to flambe it hadn't burned off, so it still tasted like it had been soaked in alcohol. Even after my girlfriend poured out the extra liquid, it tasted off. We split the lamb chops for our main course, which were fine, but not fantastic. Overall, we left feeling like we'd want to try another Greek place before coming back.

2 Corners Special Gyros, Please! And yes, we will be there in 10 minutes to pick them up :-) This is our common, we don't feel like cooking but want yummy, freshly made delicious food ready in 10 minutes that isn't from a place like McDonalds or Taco Bell go-to place. Greek Corner, literally is around the corner from our house. I feel like it must have fate for us to live so close to it, since we really are pretty dependent on their gyros for situations like that. Plus if you order food to go/for pick up here, I swear they give you way more salad and fries (the two side options you get when you order the gyro as a plate) than they do when you eat in the actual restaurant. Plus their gyros are HUGE! Just getting that is a meal all on its own, and their combo of seasoned beef and lamb with all of those herbs and that yogurt sauce in it, is simply perfect. Perfect, I say. Their soup here is so so, but their sampler plate with that spinach pie, hommus, tabouleh, feta cheese, eggplant salad and olives is awesome and totally makes up for what their soup lacks. But I think that I could easily eat a corners special gyro from here a couple times a week and never get bored with that flavor, so if you haven't tried this place yet, now you know what to order when you do!!!

Food is always very good here. The corner special Gyro is always good. Highly recommend the Greek fries as a great twist on the usual French fries. Service is usually very attentive though at times it can get busy an you might get "lost" in the crowd when at a corner table. Parking is really tough here as it is right in Mass Ave. Would recommend taking the T (77 bus) or else you might need to park a bit away and walk. They do serve beer and wine. Makes for a nice lunch or dinner out.

Dinara E.

Their chicken wraps with tsatsiki (sp?) sauce is amazing! Their fries are bland (unsalted) and on the soggy side - assume they are just left out a lot. Their chicken and lemon soup is weird and not that good. But I'm not joking when I say that I could eat their chicken gyros every single day for the rest of my life.

Kathy J.

Love anything they make with lamb, the souvlaki was excellent but the roast lamb was even better. I love the fries, I don't know why, I normally wouldn't even order them. Saganaki (sp) hot flaming cheese yum! Wasn't crazy about the grilled shrimp, but loved the greek salad it came with.

Brandon B.

Greek Corner lived up the the hype! We spent over a week in Greece and the Greek Islands this summer and Greek Corner was the most authentic food we've found in Boston. We started with the sampler plate and added a falafel to try. The sampler platter was awesome. Everything on it was great. The dolmas were tightly rolled and packed with flavor. The taziki was just right. The taramosalata was a stand out....I'd never had it before but couldn't stop eating it! The only average item was the spanikopita. It was good, but didn't taste extremely fresh and could have used more filling. I liked the falafel as well, but it wasn't your traditional fried chickpea falafel. It was dark throughout and wasn't as "soft" on the inside as I normally like. I got a village salad before my meal that brought back so many memories of Greece. They do not serve lettuce salads in Greece so the village salad is as authentic as it comes. For my entree I got the lamb shank in red sauce and it was phenomenal! The lamb was so tender it melted in my mouth and the flavor was outstanding! The red sauce complemented it perfectly and the rice helped bring everything together. This was some of the best lamb I've ever had. My wife got the gyro and was extremely happy with it as well. Service was excellent as well. Very friendly and attentive. If you want good, authentic Greek food, go to the Greek Corner!

Melanie W.

Wonderful gyro sandwiches and gyro plates. I've also enjoyed the grape leaf plate, Greek fries, chicken kebab, beef kabob and lamb kabob. I thought the spinach pie lacked flavor, the baklava was far too sweet (almost couldn't eat it and it gave me a toothache) and my Greek salad wrap with chicken fell apart when I bit into it. I wish that the salads came in separate containers when ordered for take out, as warm lettuce is gross. The pita bread is thoroughly enjoyed. I used to live right down the street and when I needed a Greek fix, this place was perfect.

Jim S.

A family-run place that will certainly not raise the bar for exotic Greek cuisine, but very good food, all homemade. Vegetarian platter( grape leaves, spinach pie, falafel, hummus, salad, rice) is $11. Everything else is reasonable, too. Menu is limited and predictable, but good for them for only trying to do what they do right. Slightly erratic service from different people (probably all family) at different times. Typical Mass Ave storefront location in older building with high tin-embossed ceiling and requisite maps/murals of Geek islands,

Another Triple D place I HAD to try. My friend lives around the block from this restaurant so we stopped by on our way home from sightseeing last night. I got the Gyro last night as it was so good.

Jonathan H.

This is my go to place when I'm craving a gyro sandwich and fries. I always browse the menu, feeling guilty that I should really branch out on the menu as I normally would at any restaurant...but who am I kidding, my heart (and stomach) know why we're here: the gyro plate. Luckily, I've split some tasty apps with my wife: both the sample plate (says for 2 but could easily accommodate 4) and the saganaki (flaming cheese!) are delicious. Also, a quick head's up that service can be a little slow here, but always friendly.
(4)
Particular P.

The falafel was interesting, crunchy that was unexpected, I don't pretend to be a falafel connoisseur, but I wasn't a huge fan. Gyro was simply amazing, and cheap so a huge win there. The spinach pie was average but again cheap. The atmosphere great and the place smells amazing. If you live in the neighborhood this a great place but not a destination stop.

I have heard only good things about this place and was not disappointed. We stopped in for lunch and had the lemon soup and Greek corner gyro. The soup was richly flavored and the gyro was heavenly with well flavored lamb and beef on a pita with lettuce, tomato and yogurt.

This place is exactly what I wanted it to be. I saw it on Food Network, made the trip (a few times), and was thoroughly pleased. And while I guess it's technically neither a diner, drive-in, or dive, it *is* just like the family-style Greek restaurants ("Coney Islands") I grew up with around the Detroit area. It's not fancy pants Greek. It's a plate of salad and rice and a heap of some sort of delicious, roasted meet. The gyro meat is fantastic. The lamb souvlaki is perfectly seasoned. The moussaka was everything I could've hoped for. And the baked lamb is fall-off-the-bone tender and covered in delicious sauce. The prices are fair, the service is just fine and on a Sunday you can find parking on one of the side streets off Mass Ave. For me, on a cool Fall night, there's something about a plate of hearty Americanized Greek food that just can't be beat. I've only tried one appetizer (the saganaki). Sadly, it fell a bit short and I've identified why. Back home at every Greek place I'd visit, the saganaki comes to the table on a heated iron skillet. It's then ignited ('opa!') at the table, and stays oozy, melty good until the end. The reason it stays that way is the skillet. At the Greek corner, the cheese comes in a tiny metal tray and very quickly congeals into a block. Not so good. But whatever. I can look past it for the wonderfulness that is the rest of the menu. Speaking of which, try the galaktoboureko - it sounds like a Marvel comics villain, but it's DELICIOUS. An amazing, flakey, honey, creamy, custardy pile of dessert deliciousness. Anyway, thanks Greek Corner, for giving me a little taste of my Mindwestern roots here in New England.

Nicole A.

YUM YUM YUM YUM. My favorite restaurant around Davis Square. So nice to go sit and and relax, be teased by the friendly Greek staff, be served your drink with a big "opa!" The sampler appetizer is great when you're with a lot of people, and I always order the Mousaka. Perfectly rich and creamy, and laden with eggplant and meat. The gyros are great too. And-- this means a lot coming from a Lebanese girl who resents the Greeks for misrepresenting baclava as Hellenic cuisine-- I have to say theirs is great.

Summary: Mediocre food and careless/disengaged wait staff. Don't bother. Details Cleanliness: Grade C- Table/chairs had rice from previous diners still on it. I did not visit the restroom, so I cannot comment on the cleanliness of that space. Service: C+ Waitstaff did bare minimum for a sit-down restaurant. She literally slammed the appetizer plate down on the table. She did not ask once during the meal how everything was (she did ask at the end). Also, we were seated near the window into the kitchen (dishwashing?) area and at one point, one of the big plastic basins came flying out, landing on the floor near my dining companion. Classy. Food: C Spanakopita appetizer-phyllo pastry was quite soggy, not crisp as it should have been; spinach filling had discernible hints of dill/mint. Moussaka plate w/side salad and rice pilaf - salad had at least two wilted/decomposing lettuce leaves (all cheap iceberg) in it; tomato was nearly unripe and undoubtedly flavorless. Best part of salad was the block of feta on top of it. Moussaka was bland - the meat layers lacked expected seasoning of cinnamon and allspice and did not seem to have any sauce at all. The best part of it was the bechamel sauce on top, which was quite creamy and rich. Rice pilaf was overcooked and also bland--the main seasoning being salt.

Such a great place for takeout but also excellent for sit down dining. Plenty of room, the food is cheap and very good for the price. I recommend you get the sampler appetizer at least once to try the taramosalata, which is basically a carp roe-based dip served with pita bread that is absolutly delicious. To be fair, it's not the best greek food I've ever had (that would be at The Aegean in Framingham) but it's still wicked good.

The appetizer sampler w/ dolmathakia, tsatziki, taramosalata, spinach pie,hommus, tabouleh, feta cheese, eggplant salad and olives--Perfect way to start a meal! The taramosalata (Red caviar blend) is AMAZING!! The Falafel pita wrap with side of lemon soup- Delicious and filling for only $9.25! The Corner Special Gyro, Moussaka, and Combo Vegetarian Plate are a few of my other favorites. Delicious and authentic food, friendly and attentive service, and amazing value makes Greek Corner one of my "go to" place for a great meal!

Have you been to Greece? Well, if you have then you know this is one of the most authentic Greek places in the area. Family run with great food. You don't pay for atmosphere, but everyone is welcome! If you want good Greek food this place won't disappoint.

This place is so good. A bit out of the way if you're taking the T to Davis Square, but absolutely worth it. I'm no expert on Greek food, but I've had my share while living down in Houston, and I'm so happy to have found a place like this in Boston. On my future visits, I will be more adventurous with the menu, but I can comment right now that the gyro and the baklava are both among the best I've ever had. Even my Chinese father, who is generally hesitant when eating non-Asian food, loved both dishes. My only small criticism is the falafel sandwich. While the pita bread (which is unbelievably good) and all the fixings in the sandwich are delicious, the falafel is always a bit dry, especially when compared to the perfectly moist chickpea fritters over at Clover Food Lab. Still, this place is a winner overall for sure. What to order: -gyros -baklava

The beef and lamb gyros here are the stuff dreams are made of. Not to be missed.

I'm not Greek and I'm not going to pretend my 10 days in Greece has made me an expert on Greek but this really made me feel like my non-existent Greek half was satisfied. I was so happy coming in here because it gave me the chance to have Pastitso, which I had not had in over a year. Anyway, Boyfriend and I shared Dolmathes and Saganaki appetizers. While in Greece I had always had Saganaki, fried cheese, served plainly on a plate, but they served it in wine. I thought it was so good and different. The Dolmathes, which are stuffed grape leaves, were plump and lemony. The Pastitso was a hearty serving of noodles, beef, and a cream sauce. It had the perfect touch of nutmeg. Heaven. The meal is served with fries/rice and salad. I upgraded the fries to Greek fries, which are lemony fries served with grated cheese and oregano, and made the standard salad a Horiatiki salad. The meal was affordable, filling, and delicious. I had heard such great things about Greek Corner, and now I can see why.

The best chicken Gyro -- period! I've eaten at many Greek restaurants and I can honestly say this was the best chicken Gyro I've ever eaten. The chicken was grilled to perfection and was moist and juicy. The pita was fresh and warm and the tzatziki sauce was fresh and obviously homemade. I also had some of their galaktoboureko and it was out of this world. This is not a fancy restaurant, but if you want really good Greek food that is freshly made, then give this place a try.

Courtney N.

The food at Greek Corner was so delicious! My boyfriend and I were in search of something different, and since he's a big lamb fan we just had to stop when we saw this restaurant, and we were not disappointed. The service was fast, we were seated in no time. The place only seemed moderately busy, but it was early in the dinner rush. I ordered a European iced coffee which was yummy. For entrees, my boyfriend (of course) got the baked lamb. His lamb actually was a functioning leg, which he gleefully played with and kept showing me. I got the moussakka and I was definitely impressed. Both came with rice and a salad. So much food! I couldn't finish mine, I'm sad to say. I wanted to, but my stomach said no. The prices were great. We've eaten out a lot the past week (with my boyfriend's brother recently visiting) and I found Greek Corner the best food for the price. I cannot wait to go back and get more yummy food. Awesome, yummy, and more awesome!

Really bad service, I'd go again the food was worth it. It isn't. Not if you've frequented Chicago's Greek town eateries.

I told the waiter that I wanted an eggplant salad sandwich -- then changed my order about four more times in the next five minutes because indecision is my worst quality. The adorable young man was incredibly patient with me and even offered advice ("Well, if you get eggplant instead of chicken, you get more stuff because the eggplant comes with herbs and spices.") Ultimately, I got the chicken gyro and it was a great choice. The waiter gave me an extra heaping side of yogurt sauce for **free** merely because I asked. Such awesome service! Another example: friend spilled water all over herself and they cleaned it up immediately. PLUS they serve Mythos, the Greek beer ($4).

Hey I'm half Greek, my mother is from athens - so i have had authentic and tasty Greek food all my life. I could swear to you that my mother and Yiayia were in the kitchen cooking just for me. EVERYTHING is delicious, from the egg lemon soup to the roast lamb dinner. there's nothing else like it, if you like Greek, or if you never tried it but want fresh delicious food, this is your place!

Five stars for lamb gyros, Greek fries, and the cafÃ© frappÃ©! Highly recommend. The service is what it is- service. The tasty food makes up for it in my eyes.

While the service here has never been its strong suit, the food here is excellent. I've been going here for years. When I worked in Harvard Square, I went to Greek Corner II. Yesterday was the last time I will be going here, however, because the service here is just terrible. We tried to get lunch yesterday, it wasn't at all crowded, the lunch crowd was wrapping up. We were seated almost immediately, and then...we waited. We tried to flag down a waitperson, but were ignored. We asked a busboy to get us some attention, and...waited. After about fifteen minutes, we decided to leave. One waitress asked, not nicely, what the problem was. I explained that we had been ignored and kept waiting long enough. "For five minutes!!!" she said with a sneer and an eyeroll. We left. We'll stick with The Aegean in Watertown.

This is my fiance's favorite place ever. He always gets the gyro meal- which includes a gyro in a soft pita, a greek salad which is fantastic, and some rice pilaf dealy. I like the gyros. I have also had the vegetarian plate, which was not my favorite. I would give them 5 stars, but I like the food from the campus trolley by BU better (Which may not be saying as much for my taste- but I think it is awesome.) They are great for eat in or take out. Prices are quite fair/ modest!
(4)
Iannis R.

We were raised on this stuff, so we're hard to impress, I expect the best Greek fare, and nothing less. The service is friendly, warm and nice For good Greek food you can't beat the price. The gyro is good, the saganaki is flaming The retsina is strong (and almost laming). We suggest you order the vegetarian plate It's enough to feed you and also your date.

Jonathan N.

I ordered a Gyro and it was pretty good. I've had some delicious Gyros in Athens, so I might be a little skewed, but my entire experience at Greek Corner was really just OK. I would definitely recommend that this place is worth a trip. Everyone I've known has recommended it to me.

Gyros are amazing! Staff is super friendly! We're going back!

It's not fancy, but holy smokes is it yummy - reliably yummy. We must have had take-out from here once a week once we discovered it. Lamb - awesome. Gyro platter - awesome. Chicken kabobs - yum. Even the rice is really good. If you like meaty-goodness, this is your spot.

Absolutely LOVE this place. From the salads, the lentil soup, lamb, and pita are the best around! Definitely authentic Greek food made with love!!!

It's been my pleasure on multiple occasions to visit the Greek Corner. My only complaint is that it's never the seven minute walk from Porter Square that I think it is (in reality, it's a fifteen minute walk from Porter and about a ten minute walk from Davis). But I never mind, because after the walk, the food is great. The souvlaki sandwich with lamb is tasty--it's got the right amount of meat and plenty of that delicious yogurt sauce. It's $6.95 and completely filling. I also recommend the sampler plate (to share as an appetizer, or as a dinner item for one person). It has dolmathakia (stuffed grape leaves), tsatziki (that delicious yogurt sauce), a caviar-blend thing that sounds weird but tastes great, spinach pie, hommus, tabouleh, feta cheese, eggplant salad, and olives. Very tasty and satisfies all your varied Greek food cravings at $10.95. I've also had the rice pudding ($3.25), which was excellent. All in all, a great place. Recommended for: Cheap but tasty dinners or lunches out, take-out, and groups/families.

Greek food done right, the Greek Corner has it all. Stopped in on Saturday afternoon and got Gyro's to go and they were wonderful. The pita was delicious. Went back this afternoon and ate in the restaurant. Nice, old school and great food. The sampler platter was a great mixture of appetizers, served with fresh pita bread. The tabouli salad was especially tasty. We had the lamb souvlaki and the lamb shish kabob. Both were delicious. Juicy, well seasoned. Loved it. The young waiter and waitress couldn't have been any nicer.

Normally food does not inspire me to take pictures, but after getting take-out from Greek Corner last night, I just had to. I had heard about the restaurant and driven past it about a million times in my 4 years here. But I had never gone in. Once entering the restaurant, it is much larger and nicer than it appears from the outside. I'm not saying it looks horrible from the outside, but it looks like a tiny, tiny place (or least I had always thought that). It was nearing 9:00 P.M., so there was no way I was going home to cook something. Enter Greek Corner. I was being indecisive, so I decided on the sampler platter for two (but without olives - love olive oil, hate olives). This contains: dolmathakia, tsatziki, taramosalata, spinach pie, hommus, tabouleh, feta cheese, eggplant salad for the indecisive person who wants to try a bit of everything. I swear the container they gave me weighed a few pounds. Look at the picture I posted. I asked if it came with pita, and I got a mountain (again, see picture). I got all of this for $10 (and I have at least 2 more meals out of it in the fridge). The food was delicious - quality and quantity, a huge plus! The spinach pie was not the best I've ever had (just with it had a bit more feta/salt), but that's just personal preference, and it was by no means bad, just a bit different. On top of this, since the food in the plate is cold, it took just minutes to get my food. The staff was also friendly and we chatted about the unavailability of peanut butter in countries like Brasil. I'll definitely be back!

As a vegetarian, I'm constantly struggling to find veggie-friendly eateries and restaurants. As a new college grad, I've been deprived of food with flavor for the past 4 years. Thankfully I'm in the right place for both of those requirements. And Greek Corner fits the bill. The people who work there are actually really accommodating - I went in once and asked them to make me a pita wrap with grape leaves, feta, lettuce, etc. (not on the menu) and they completely obliged! I've gone with other friends who have enjoyed the restaurant equally as much. The ones who do eat meat have not been able to stop talking about the gyros. And such good baklava too!

Went back recently. Food still awesome, service a little slow this time. But servers were pleasant and apologetic. Still love it!

Ido W.

The bottom line: Old-fashioned family style unassuming restaurant that is very reasonably priced. I will come back. The Pro's: The baked lamb and baklava were excellent. The service is very pleasant. The food is cheap. The con's: The salad platter is not the best we've had. If the salads were better partitioned on the plate that may make it better. The lamb suflake was not very good either. Not bad. Just not excellent.

Chris K.

This is one of my favorite Greek restaurants. The food is consistently good and the prices are very reasonable. My favorites include the white bean soup, gyros, spinach pie, and the most excellent tziki sauce you will ever have!!! It's so creamy, garlicky, cucumber-y --- YUM!

Christos M.

One of the most authentic Greek restaurants that I've ever eaten at in the US. The more expensive Greek restaurants that I have visited can't even come close to the quality of food that I've had at this little gem in Cambridge. The appetizers are enough to give them an excellent review, and the lamb chops and roast lamb to die for. They also have a great vegetarian menu like the spanakopita and dolmathes which is what I have been getting there in the last couple of years since I turned vegetarian. Excellent service, kid friendly, and very clean. You have to try their taramasalata if you get there, they make it on the premises.

Cara P.

My friend who is like super duper greek first brought me here. Like so Greek that her grandmother "chased her around and slapped her with a wooden spoon when she got mad" greek. Anywhoo, the service is fast, the food is so good annnnd cheap! But the best part....it's two blocks from where I work. It's my "go to" place for wraps because I am completely in love with their homemade tzatsiki sauce. Ummmm yummm! Next up on my list to try is there spinach pie. Seriously - if you are in the area you must stop in!
(5)
Mark M.

We used to eat there all the time but the service began to grate on us. They're short with customers and don't seem to value their patronage. We waited 30 minutes one time for a table despite they're being 6 open tables. It was frustrating for us and the 3 couples in front and behind us.

BEST GREEK FOOD IN BOSTON! Feta Melts...egg lemon soup... pastitso ... gyros... their food is incredible! This is my family's place to go if we ever have any family event that involves going out to dinner. Even my one year old nephew eats it up! Go here, don't think about it any longer... you're already missing out on so much delicious pita and baba ghanoush as you read this! Go!

Amanda G.

I may start sweating Greek Corner hummus if I'm not careful. This place was less crowded before Guy Fieri visited it, then the secret was really out. I live a stone's throw from here and I have dinner (or lunch) at Greek Corner probably once every two weeks. The same people who work here are always here, and I kind of love that. But more importantly, I love that they serve authentic, delicious, cheap Greek food. Chicken gyros, vegetarian platter, village salad (YUM) are all mainstays of my diet. If you love a) hummus b) shwarma c) avolegmeno soup d) fresh grilled pita bread e) feta... the list goes on. Cheap, fresh, yummy square meals for the whole family! Two people, sans a Corona, is about 22 bucks with tip.

Hyerun K.

I think they have the best gyros in town! My fiance thought it was the succulent meat that made it so good, but I'm convinced it's the perfect amount of tang in the yogurt-dill sauce that sets this gyro apart! The servers were wonderful as well (and explained that it's pronounced "yee-ro" and not "yuhr-ro" or "jie-ro"). I'm docking a star though because the lettuce in my gyro wasn't fresh (it was turning brown!) and the greek fries are just regular fries with some sort of powder sprinkled on them. I'm used to greek fries having feta sprinkled or baked on top, but they used something similar to ranch dressing powder.
(4)
John S.

Great Greek-American classics, to be sure, but the restaurant itself is a mob scene. The service was friendly, but over-worked, and I think you'd all be best served by ordering takeout and eating it in the relative comfort of your own homes.

As I was driving home and rethinking the lunch from this restaurant I kept on subtracting stars. Saw this diner on diners, drive ins, and dives. Let me get right to it someone is not being quite honest and don't know who, but lets move on. When I was watching the show they prepared gyros, they showed layering of marinated meat. When done they shaved it and made the standard gyro (sauce, lettuce, tomatoes, onions). I was looking at the menu and noted for the gyro they described the meat as ground lamb and beef. Ok maybe every Greek menu is written the same but this place serves the real deal, shaved meat, wrong it was the ground ubiquitous stuff you can get at the quicky mart. Well sort of this was strong of lamb grease. The lettuce was border line fresh and there was no onions, what the storm put kink in their onion delivery? Leave it to say not a very good gyro. The French fries look great and were hot, well browned but every restaurant knows to blanch the fries then cook them on a higher heat to crisp the outside, these weren't done this way. Although nicely browned they were not crisp on the outside. They were ok but they could have been a home run if they knew how to cook them. The side salad was ok but the lettuce was just on he cusp of freshness and once again no onions. The dressing ws ok I think they were trying for a lemon vinaigrette but the lemon was almost undetectable. I tried an appetizer, it was some form of red caviar (salmon eggs?) spun up with I think yogurt. Not bad tasted somewhat like a lox dip. I wouldn't order it again not because it was bad but I prefer the hummus or babaganush. Problem was it was served on lettuce garnish which really looked like it was pulled from the trash bin. This meant this dip was plated oh a day or two ago maybe. Not a pleasant presentation. The lunch came to $18.10 without tip, little high for the quality and quantity. I like Greek diners they usually have a menu as large as "gone with the wind" and they usually do an amazing job on each dish. This one failed.

Saganaki is delicious. All the food is delicious, except falafel - it's dry and not made correctly. Servers are abrupt and not highly attentive; the place is considered a "dive", in the best way possible. It's worth going. I'm a repeat customer.
(4)
Rachel B.

The good: - I've gotten the standard gyro here a couple of times and it has been tasty - The hummus is really garlicy and flavorful Not so good: - Most recently my gyro had hard pieces of what seems like pebbles, but was probably bone - The prices are a bit steep for pretty standard fare - The greek salad leaves much to be desired. Usually it's kind of sad and wilty and warm - Parking is tough unless you have a Cambridge permit or come on a Sunday when it doesn't matter If I'm craving a gyro I'd probably return, but only because I haven't tried anything better.

Melissa M.

delicious and on the cheap - which isn't always an easy pair to find in somerville. got take-out last night and ordered 2 greek corner gyros, eggplant salad, and a piece of baklava and spent around 20 bucks. for two people for dinner i'd say that's a good deal. the take out service was super speedy and the counter guy was warm and friendly. the food was delicious as well - the lamb chunks in the gyros were juicy and perfectly grilled and by the time i finished crushing it, i was stuffed. will definitely go back for take-out as an alternative to the usual stop in at anna's for a burrito, and would likely dine-in with friends if we were looking for somewhere casual and low key to go.

The line was out the door when we arrived on Friday night, which we took to be a good sign. The wait was a little more than the 10 minutes we were told and the main dining area was smokey from the kitchen. As soon as we got our food though, all of this was forgotten. We started with a plate of falafel and hommus which was so fresh and delicious I actually stopped mid-sentence after tasting it. It was probably the best falafel I've had in years. Such great flavor and texture! The only thing I would have changed on that plate was to add more hommus-it wasn't enough for two people to share. But that's just proof that it was good. For dinner I had the Corner's Special Souvlaki with lamb. Simply delicious. It too was fresh and perfect though I do have to say that I'm not sure it was lamb. It tasted like beef, which was fine with me but others might have been disappointed. The meat was perfectly cooked and seasoned, regardless of what it was. My boyfriend had the Gyro with beef and while I didn't taste it, I could tell (by the fact that he was so quiet!) that his was delicious too. At the end, we both sat back in our chairs and sighed because Greek Corner totally surpassed our expectations. The only true downside was the smokey wait-but really, if smelling fresh meat grilling in a restaurant is a downside, then I'm OK with it. We'll be back several times, for sure.

Greek Corner is delicious. I came here for lunch after seeing this restaurant featured on "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives". I wasn't optimistic since I don't 100% trust Guy Fieri (the hair and the sunglasses are working against him), but for this restaurant he was spot on. My husband and I shared a falafel appetizer that was served with hummus and tabbouleh. The falafel was perfectly cooked and the hummus and tabbolueh were obviously homemade. For lunch I had a corner special gyro that was absolutely outstanding. It was overstuffed, hot, and delicious. My one criticism would be that they went extra-heavy on the yogurt sauce which overpowered the sandwich. No big deal though, next time I'll just get sauce on the side.

nadine h.

Not worth the hype!! Had a Gyro with salad. Practically no filling and the salad was soggy. The waitress was unfriendly. I would rather go to Pita in the South End twenty times better. The prices are inexpensive because the quality isn't good.

Socal C.

Three of us came here for dinner on 1/1/2013. I'm no expert on Greek food, but Greek Corner's offerings were tasty enough. It's the service that was insulting. That subject will be addressed with a detailed story in a bit. But quickly, we had to ask for menus after 20 minutes of being seated---got orders in after over 30 minutes---were never asked about more drinks after one glassful and it took 15 minutes for someone to pick up the check and process our payment. I aim to sample any restaurant a few times--rarely is my first visit or even second visit a make or break affair. So I'd have been willing to return to Greek Corner and try something else on another day. However, we'll never walk in here again. I hit a Greek restaurant and a Greek bakery all the time in Lowell where I work. Those two places (Olympia restaurant & Olympus bakery) play at a level well above Greek Corner. However, I understand that Greek Corner patrons don't pass through Lowell much if they live in Cambridge/Arlington/Somerville. Thus, Greek Corner is one of the few options for Greek food in the area. And for that purpose, Greek Corner gets the job done. However, condescension from a waiter is NEVER acceptable. I had ordered the roast lamb sandwich combination which comes with fries (rice I believe is also a choice). Perhaps I ordered incorrectly---entirely a possibility. When the sandwich came sans fries, I asked the waiter about my missing fried potatoes. She informed me that I had to order the combo to receive the fries. I was confused at this point and was sitting there trying to remember if I had ordered correctly. Then the waitress leaned down at me and motioned with her hands (as if I was some child who didn't know how to order a meal) "But, sir, you have to tell me you want the combination in order to get the fries." Did I get it wrong or did she? Forget the whole "The customer is always right." business. That's not my point. The point is another person--customer or otherwise---who's legitimately confused should not be treated in such a way. She got me the fries but the rudeness--we don't gotta pay to get treated like that. Oh, well, we finished up the meal--the fries were very good--paid our bill and knew that the 57 bucs or so we spent would be the last dollars we would ever pay out to Greek Corner. Again, the food was solid. But if you got some time and wanna take a drive and want Greek food. Get Ye to Lowell. Pick up delicious spinach pies for $5.50 at Olympus bakery and have the roast lamb with garnish at Olympia restaurant. The food is far better and hey, the workers won't treat you like trash.

I saw this place on triple D and I stopped what was doing and rode my bike there from the north end in 90 degree heat. It was worth it, and I've been back about 5 times since. I just get the lamb Gyro and a Greek beer and it doesn't get much better. I also like that they put shredded lettuce on the Gyros, most Greek places don't do this.

Went here for the first time today after running. I was all sweaty and gross but it didn't matter. Had the gyro, could have eaten two. Fantastic sandwich. The place is nice inside and quiet. A peaceful and tasty getaway from being on Mass Ave.

John X.

Nice little place off of Mass Ave. The sign is unassuming and the restaurant does not stand out, but inside it is tastefully decorated. The place was packed when I went, and for good reasons. We started with the Tabouli which was excellent. We got fairly full off of it which probably wasn't the best idea, but it was worth it. I got the gyro plate, while my friend got the lamb kabob. I actually liked her dish better than mine, and she liked mine better than hers, but both were excellent. The lamb and beef were well shaved and perfectly marinated, with the rice pilaf and salad adding a perfect counterpoint to the food. The lamb kabobs were juicy and well seasoned also, definitely the dish I will order next time. Highly recommended!

Liz G.

I used to frequent this place quite a bit during my carnivore days. Their chicken gyro is worth coming here. The falafels, on the other hand, are so dry that you'll need a gallon of water to toss these suckers down. The tahini sauce is also extremely bitter tasting and doesn't complement the sandwich. So if you do come by here, ask for taziki sauce instead. The cucumber sauce moistens up the dry falafels.

Jillian M.

This place it really fantastic. The food is great, the prices are solid and the service is just right. Every time I have been here, I was glad I did, which is the true test, isn't it? I thought I had experienced the depths of its glory until last weekend, when dirty and sweaty after a day of softball, we came here and ordered the appetizer sampler (always delicious) and the swordfish kebab. Oh. My. God. The swordfish kebab. Where do I start? It was so moist and beautiful and well-marinated. My boyfriend thought he was going to have to leave me alone with it. Just saying. It was truly the best thing I have eaten this year.

Joanna F.

I brought my Greek father and non-Greek mother to the Greek Corner this weekend. Everyone seemed to thoroughly enjoy their meals. I've been here a handful of times, and the service has always been great, it's never too full and the food is scrumptious. I got the vegetarian plate. It was the perfect amount of food. Spinach pie, hommos, falaffel, grape leaves, greek salad... yes please! My boyfriend and brother both went for the gyro sandwich plates which were HUGE. My parents both went for lamb souvlaki which looked awesome. We also split some baklava for dessert. Great Greek food and a great place to go to try different types of Greek food if you've never had it, thanks to the combo plates.

Steph P.

I'm Greek, so I know what I am talking about. This food is awesome, almost as good as Yia Yia used to make God rest her soul. My grandfather, like most Greeks, owned a restaurant. So far, I have been here two times with my cousin (also Greek) and we have been blown away. You know that dish you make really well so you never order it out because you are convinced no one can do it better? That is most Greek food for us. So the first trip we went safe, ordered things that are hard to screw up. Spanakopita (spinach pie), dolmathes, taramosalata (a fish roe spread), a gyro and calamari. Everything was so good. They make their own Taramosalata and it is the best I have ever had. You have to try it, it is only $1.99 for a little sample. The gyro was a step above standard, mostly due to the homemade tzatsiki sauce. The calamari was very lightly breaded, not greasy, lemony and delicious enough to order on the second visit. Entrees come with a delicious salad topped with a nice hunk of feta and fries or pilaf almost as good as Yia Yia's. On the second visit, we got the appetizer sampler for 2 with the taramosalta, dolmathes, spanakopita, garlic-tastic hummus, eggplant salad, tzatsiki and tabouleh. Yum. Double yum. But I went out there this time. I trusted these Greeks running around yelling at one another in my grandmother's native language. I ordered the pasticio. Now, you have to understand, I make the same pasticio that I have eaten my whole life. I love it and everyone who has tried it begs me to make it again and again. This pasticio was great. I loved it. I will still make mine, but I have found a place where it is actually good. And did I mention, this app and two entrees was only $37 including tax? And they have Coke, no Pepsi (backwards from the Billy Goat but still funny). I am whore for a restaurant with Coke. I have to say too, I love the feel of this place. The diner/paper placemats/faux Greek is all actually very Greek. And who gives a crap anyway if the food is incredible? Love, love, love. I can guarantee that I will be here often.

Really solid Greek food. Nice service. Ambience is nothing special. Love the Falafel plate, and the rice and salad are delicious. Take some baklava to go, too. Authentic food, good prices. Recommended!

This is a great neighborhood gem for North Cambridgers, and Davis and Porter Square natives. Food is tasty, prices are affordable, service is attentive and fast. I've stopped by here twice after getting a haircut nearby and loved the gyro and slouvaki. Next time I may splurge on some more classic entrees, but for now having a counter and sit service is definitely a plus. Definitely check it out for some affordable Greek eats.

Greek Corner is fantastic...fantastic food, fantastic service and fantastic value. I love the gyro, and being a vegetarian, they always accommodate me and change the dish to meatless whenever I make the request. The waitstaff is very friendly and the prices are reasonable. This is the first place I'll go whenever I have a Greek food or tzatziki craving! Yum!

Ok, lets just start with the fact that no matter how entertaining a TV personality may be, there is still a show to be had. Having said that I would steer far far away from the Greek Corner. I woulnd't go so far as to say I literally drove up from New York just for this place, but it was definitely on the Boston bucket food list, and unfortunately our first stop. I, like so many others became somewhat entranced by the platinum lure that is Guy Fieri, and quickly jotted this place down after watching the show. Gyro's done the right way, dude I'm there, where do I sign? But oh no friends, this is part of the trap, and you'd think as a filmmaker I'd know that the magical world of television is a farce, but I fell, and I fell hard. Growing up in Astoria Queens in the 80's meant lots and lots of greek food, and not always great but in abundance. So needless to say I set the bar kinda high, but after the performance I saw I didn't think it would be an issue. Well folks, it was, it was a big issue, because nothing I saw or ate reflected anything near what was portrayed. I should have known when we were seated as the only patrons, I was in for disappointment, but when our waitress left us sitting there without menus, the confirmation stamp was dropped. After waiting for close to 6 minutes for her to return, I finally got up and asked if we could see a menu. She was polite and apologetic, and having been a waitress I know it happens to the best of us, but it's not like the place was pumpin so....just sayin. Freshly sliced meat stacked onto the spit, I think not, it was no different than the generic block of Gyro meat you order at any diner across the country. In fact it lacked flavor, and a crap ton of it, if not for the tzatiki sauce they could have sandwiched squirrel meat between that pita for all I woulda known. The portion was insultingly small, and I'm all for normal sized portions, but for $7 bucks I expect to at least be full. My husband's burger was fit for a doll house, although the fries were of a decent size. The pita was mostly charred, the meat dry and bland, and as previously stated; small. Prices were descent but for what you get, I woulda paid double to have sunk my teeth into what was sold to me on the screen. Doing things the "right way" for the cameras, is a crappy way to haul asses through the doors. Next time, try actually doing it the right way, I felt duped and quite the dumb ass for setting my hopes so high. Honestly, after this experience I longed for the Gyro's at Greek Village in Carmel NY. Ya just don't know how good ya have it until its replaced with crap.

Wow look I am the 100th review, do I get a prize? Anway, I went here last night for dinner with my parents based on the Yelp reviews. I have to say the food was great but the restaurant was a little loud. The friendly service and the great food made up for it though. I ordered the vegetarian grape leaves (A+), the baked lamb which is served with rice and some kind of tomoato based sauce on top of it was very tender and flavorful as well (A+).

My 4 stars= 4.5 stars. Minus .5 because I've never really had Greek food before so I have nothing to compare it to. Came here last night for my Godfather's birthday and was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoy Greek food. The restaurant was very cute inside and definitely had a Mediterranean feel. The service was great (also helps that our server was attractive and had the cutest greek accent ever). He explained to us about the different wines (since they were all Greek of course) and made recommendations (which I love). We started of with the falafel dish and the sampler plate. The spinach pie was awesome, the grape leaves were awesome, and everything else I can't quite pronounce or remember how to spell it, but it was great as well. I ended up just kind of piling everything onto my pita bread and eating it all together- delicious. For my entree, I ordered the gyro plate. Shaved lamb piled on top of rice pilaf and a salad. SO GOOD. so so so good. The lamb was so delicious and flavorful, with the perfect amount of seasonings. I couldn't get enough of it. The plate doesn't appear to be too big, but its jam packed with hidden pieces of lamb and buttloads of rice. I loved it. My father order the lamb shish kabob which was thicker pieces of lamb on skewers, with the same rice and salad thing going on. Although not as good as my shaved lamb, it was still yummy. If you haven't tried Greek food, this is definitely your go to place. I plan to come back to introduce a friend to the wonderful world of Greek cuisine. Entrees for $10.25? I'll take that any day.

Had lunch there yesterday with my wife and our daughter. This is Greek cuisine done right. The Gyros were terrific, the sausage I had was equally good. The place has nice atmosphere too. Service was fast and friendly.

All I have to say is thank god I have a Greek friend! I met up with her and two other friends here tonight and was blown away. Simply blown away. First off, I got there early and watched a lot of comings and goings, and swooned when I saw that almost everyone was greeted warmly, by name. It says a lot to me when a place has regulars, and the Greek Corner definitely was overflowing with them. There was lots of banter, congratulations to one waiter about his engagement, one employee shouting to a regular that he saw him the other day in Medford. It all just made me wish I was a regular too. Now onto the food. We sampled a lot: I had the lamb/beef gyro and the egg/lemon/chicken soup, one friend had the chicken gyro, and the other two had veggie platters. We also got an order of fries (which had parmesean on them, not feta as I believe some reviews referenced). We also got a side order of hummus. I will be back, often, for more gyro's. It was the perfect amount of veggies to juicy meat, and the tzatziki in it was delicious. And the pita it was served on? So perfect. If all you've ever had was supermarket pita, then you need to come here and try the homemade pita bread. It will amaze you. The most outstanding thing I ate though was the hummus. I declared, "OMG this is the best hummus I've ever had!" and I wasn't kidding. I wasn't being dramatic. I was telling the god's honest truth. So The Greek Corner has thus landed a spot on my perfect dish list!

My Boston favorite for Greek food, by a long shot. Started eating here in 1997. Glorious, glorious food. Someone below complains about the salad. That's how a legit Greek salad is made: large cuts of cucumbers, tomatoes, onion, feta, a little olive oil. Xoriatiki (not sure how to transliterate best) is not the same thing as a McGreek Salad. Souvlaki is great. Tzatziki is the best. Hummous done Greek-style, very good. Chicken kabab is so subtle, so delicious. Gyros are awesome, and quite filling. Avgolemono , calamari, it just doesn't stop. OK, the moussaka is a little greasy IMO. That's OK because I don't like moussaka. There is only one problem at this place: the service is slow. It's as if they imported actual Greek service standards to Cambridge (I've lived in Greece; they take life slow).

4.5 stars....good prices, great food! We like this for Friday night take out. They're fast and delicious. We order the souvlaki plate (lamb) and they must have made some changes recently, because it's even better! Lamb is more tender and highly seasoned (almost too much, but I'll take it). Heavenly...even better, leftovers the next morning go great in scrambled eggs. Best tsatzik sauce I've found so far and they're usually very generous with the pita bread. Parking can be tight, but if it's after hours, we use the side parking lot (bank?). We heart you, Greek Corner.

I came upon this place when my original choice down the street was closed. Service was very fast, as soon as we walked in we were whisked away to a table. I saw most people seated were eating gyros. My fiance decided that was his choice. I got a Greek salad wrap with chicken. We started with the hummus appetizer. The hummus was nicely presented but overly garlicky. I like garlic but this was extreme. We didn't even finish it. Our food came shortly after. My wrap was wrapped in foil then cut in half. Little pieces of foil made their way inside the wrap. I had to carefully pick them out. The chicken was flavorful but the some lettuce pieces had brown ends. The gyro on the other hand was delicious. My only complaint was that the tzatziki sauce was too excessive. Big globs came out in all directions once biting in. It overpowered the taste of the meat. I would return again for the gyro but ask for less sauce.

Liz M.

VERY LIMITED REVIEW I'm only reviewing what I ate, some hummus & EGGPLANT SALAD + the service. hummus + eggplant salad - way too salty. service - no bueno. people need jobs, maybe they need more waitstaff. There aren't that many Greek places around but this aint no Fontanas or an Astoria joint. Maybe the meat is worth it.

Annie I.

I go here for lunch sometimes and get the gyro plate special--it comes with a gyro and a salad, and the tzatziki is amazing!! the price is reasonable, somewhere around or under 10 bucks for lunch. my girlfriend usually gets a salad and always likes it. the staff is friendly and it has a small family business vibe.

One of my favorite restaurants in Boston - great food at a good price. Everytime I've gone and deviated from my usual order though, I usually regret it. It's not like they were bad, they just can't compare to the swordfish kebab yet (honorable mention to the gyros though). Their swordfish kebab is incredible: incredibly well cooked and tender. Even my friend who normally doesn't like swordfish was a converted fan after trying a taste of mine. Good portions and I don't get why, but their rice pilaf is weirdly delicious. What's so special about rice? I'm not quite sure...I am generally meh about rice pilaf and the artificial buttery taste that it leaves in your mouth but Greek Corner rice is deliciously flavored yet not too heavy.

Liked the location and atmosphere of this place. Parking is a PITA so be prepared. Gyros were good but I wasn't as blown away as I hoped I'd be thanks to DDD. Portion sizes were appropriate for the price.

Overall I really like Greek Corner and I eat the same items all the time. Pros 1) Gyros - super good and the bread is always fresh 2) Fries - really good and they taste fresh not frozen. Some people think that they are too greasy, but I guess I like it that way 3) Tabouleh - pretty good Cons 1) Falafel - Gross and really hard with no taste 2) Baklava - dry and tastless. Maybe the authentic version is too not have it sweet (forgive me if that is the case). 3) Home serve ware - They should invest in professional/commercial serve ware. They put desserts on homestyle dishes

Marti S.

Since I did my take out review, I have eaten in a few times. Service can be a little spotty, but everyone is always really nice, which makes up for it. Also, the food is just so so so good. Tonight I had a lamb shish kebab sandwich which was one of the most delicious things I've had in a LONG time. My boyfriend always gets the gyro - always - if that says anything about how good it is. And their falafel is super yummy - I tend to get the falafel sandwich, but now that I know how good the lamb is that might change. Turns out the French fries still aren't good in the restaurant. And their lettuce is always iceberg. Those are my two main criticisms - the French fries and lettuce.

Greek Corner's unassuming blue and white storefront belies a lively, family-owned neighborhood restaurant that serves simple, authentic Greek food. The dÃ©cor isn't much, except for an enormous seascape mural on the back wall. The inexpensive menu features basic Greek cuisine done very well. My boyfriend and I went on a Wednesday night and almost all the tables were taken. We ordered hommus as an appetizer which was very good. For dinner, my boyfriend had the Corner's Special Gyro with grounded beef and lamb seasoned with herbs and spices, and I ordered the chicken kebab with marinated chicken breast on a skewer with green pepper and onions, cooked on charcoal. The gyro was good, but we thought that the gyro at Steve's Greek Cuisine at Faneuil Hall was marginally better. The chicken kebab was also very good, but we thought that the chicken could use more seasoning. While Greek Corner fell short in some areas, you can't beat the price so we will definitely be back.

I was very pleasantly surprised by the Greek Corner. When I walked in I was expecting a typical grease-ball meal, but I was only half right. Me and my girlfriend ordered from Greek Corner take-out. I got a gyro plate, my girlfriend got a Greek salad wrap, and we also got a saganaki to share. The guy I talked to on the phone was very helpful, telling me what everything came with, how big the appetizer was, etc. As soon as we got the food home we dug in, wanting to make sure everything was still hot and fresh. The saganaki was very good, despite it not being prepared table-side. My gyro was fantastic. The meat was perfectly cooked and the filling was perfectly mixed and portioned. My girlfriend's Greek salad wrap, while also very good, was a bit problematic. The thing was absolutely swimming in oil. She practically had to eat the thing over the sink it was spilling so much (insert BP joke here). Despite the absurd mess it made though, my girlfriend still liked it and we still plan to go back again sometime. One odd thing, our order came with a lot of extra pita bread. I'm not sure what it was for or why it was there, but we had no use for it. This is not to say it was a negative, it was just curious.

I cook Greek and I do it well. My cousin took me here and said it was really great. It's not. For me, pastistio is a test and they failed it -- bechamel underdone, microscopic layer of hamburg and sauce, no taste of any cheese. And the salad! Throw some iceberg on the plate and a hard piece of tomato and call it good? And the dressing -- so astringent and overpowering. The fries while they held hope o first glance were lukewarm and had no taste. Sorry, I'll cook at home.

Went there with a group of friends and ate well. I had the veggie plate which is very generous, including falafel (a bit overcooked), grape leaves with rice (delicious), hummous (very good and fresh), and fries (limp and greasy), and lots of lettuce & tomatoes & feta--a lot of food! The red house wine was decent. My table mates were all happy with their choices although I didn't think it looked very appetizing. Service was very friendly and with a smile! The place was very busy and lively, which means it was loud, but the atmosphere was very congenial.

This place has, by far, the best Greek food at the best prices in the area. It loses a star for rather slow and inattentive service, but I'm willing to deal with it because the food is so tasty!

Two words: Corner Sandwich It is the best gyro EVER! Delicious lamb and beef with a great yogurt sauce. The pita is so soft and yummy. Their other Greek dishes are ok; pretty good, but not as good. They do a hefty take out business, but it's also nice to eat there. Good corner diner feel. It's run by the family, and there's something to be said for the staff actually speaking Greek to each other.

I married into a Greek family 25 years ago. This places stands up to the best of home-cooking. We've had a bit of everything from souvlaki, moussaka, pasticcio, dolmathes, salads, spanakopita, lamb - it all strikes home. We do takeout, then pretend we made it, without the two days of labor! Let's put it this way, I would take a native Greek to this place. 'nuff said.

A couple weeks ago while heading to Hana Sushi, we walked by the Greek Corner. You can smell the food from outside, and my mouth started to water. I grew up surrounded by Greek food and the aroma reminded me of being in the kitchen with Yia Yia and Pouli (my Greek grandparents). My Pouli was a chef, so he knew how to cook, and I knew how to eat. I think if he were still around he'd be very happy with the food served here, as it is a lot more authentic than what you can get in other places. And of course, the plates are piled high, as they should be! My meal was amazing, the vegetarian platter was overloaded with spanakopita, salad, stuffed grape leaves, hommus, falafel, and rice (you could also get fries). There was easily enough here for me to bring some home for leftovers, but I just couldn't stop eating. And when I mean I couldn't stop, I mean it. We also ordered some baklava for dessert. Amazing. The service was also great as it was actually pleasant and didn't come across forced in anyway. I cannot wait to come back, and maybe bring my Dad to see how he thinks it measures up. Something tells me he'll also get a little nostalgic and think back to the days spent in Yia Yia and Pouli's kitchen.

Let's face it, you will not come here propose to your girlfriend or have your graduation dinner, so all that really matters about this place is that the food is AWESOME. I live a block away and I have to fight myself from picking up dinner there every night. If I could just eat the warm buttery pitas that they wrap their sandwiches in all day, I probably would. The falafel, souvlaki, gyro, all are bomb. Oh and the hommus, the HOMMUS. I might have to put this place on speed dial because the store-bought crap does not hold up. I actually used to work at another Greek restaurant in the city and the Greek Corner wins by far. I mostly get take out, which they prepare really fast; they are usually done by the time I can walk over right after calling.

Keith M.

Dinner on a saturday night. Got in right away around 6, but it filled up quick. Parking is tough, but keep circling! I had Dolmades and Moussaka with some salad. The dolmades came out quick and chilled (my preference). The moussaka was a good size with just enough eggplant and beef. I wanted to order more, but that was enough for one visit.
(3)
Hilda W.

Ohhhh...Greek Corner! I said I would come back and try you again and I did. Boy, am I glad that I did. And this time I ordered correctly. We got the special lamb sandwich and an order of the Greek fries. Our waitress was friendly, though busy, which was an improvement over last time. That lamb sandwich was the best thing ever. The pita was crisp and hot, the tzaziki was delicious and the lamb was heaven. I was so worried that it would be tough or gristly, but it was tender and flavorful. The Greek fries were pretty good, but I think next time I will get just regular fries. So now I can't wait to go back and get another one of those lamb sandwiches. This is the stuff that dreams are made of.

We've been going to this restaurant ever since it opened over 20 years ago when we lived in North Cambridge. It's our favorite restaurant. It's good Greek food, comfort food (if you grew up eating Greek food). Sure, it gets busy and the service can be uneven, but that's the price you pay for a popular spot. It's casual, good for families or couples. The appetizer plate is great if you can't decide which dips you want. Otherwise, get the tzatziki and/or eggplant dips. Fantastic! The baked lamb is great. We often get the souvlaki as well, although it can sometimes be overcooked. Just go!
(5)
Yvonne W.

Although my lovely is Chinese, when he wants yummy homey food, he always has a craving for Greek Corner, especially their baked lamb, which I also am in love with. The meat on the lamb shank is so moist and tender that it literally just falls off the bone when you poke it with your fork. No knife is needed. Just dig in! We've also had the moussaka here -- layers of eggplant, ground beef and potatoes with herbs and spices topped with a special Bechamel sauce. I usually don't think that much of eggplant unless it's prepared Chinese style (I think eggplant parmesan is gross -- Sichuan style eggplant is one of my favorite things in the world, next to Taiwan Cafe's basil eggplant), but this was very impressive. I found myself smiling afterwards thinking, wow, Greek Corner has made me like a different style of eggplant! Another time we came here, we had the swordfish kebabs, which we wouldn't get again because the fish was really dry. We've also had the Sampler Plate that included dolmadakia, tzatziki, taramosalata, spinach pie, hummus, tabouleh, feta cheese, eggplant salad and olives. You should definitely get this if you want an appetizer but are feeling indecisive about which to pick. We love the tzatziki here - it's creamy, yogurty, and has lots of dill in it! If there's one downside about this place, it's that it's a bit of a walk from the Porter T stop, and also that the service is pretty slow. The wait staff is always nice and friendly, but it's just that this place gets so crowded that at times there aren't enough waiters to go around.

I wish I could give one of the many glowing reviews of Greek Corner- but I just can't. But I'm pretty sure the fault is all mine for ordering something they do fairly well, as opposed to awesomely well, because a four-star Yelp rating doesn't lie, folks. I usually get the falafel plate with fries. I am crazy for neither the falafel nor the fries. The falafel is too hard, large, and dry for my taste, and the fries are weirdly sweet. The hummus and tabbouleh are good, but nothing spectacular. I like the salad, but that's probably because I'm nuts-o about feta cheese. Next time, I think I'll try the veg platter, or the feta melt, or spanikopita, or one of the many dishes that has been ethused over, because my dinner mates always seem to enjoy their various carniverous meals. Verdict: I'll be back, baby. Also, when I was there yesterday picking up some takeout with my boyfriend, the A/C seemed to be malfunctioning- it was spitting water all over the place. No one (included us) really minded, since it was so damn hot, but we saw this little kid position himself under a more steady drip of water leaking from the outside portion of the A/C. And he was DRINKING IT. Heh. Extremely amusing pre-dinner show! 5 stars for the coolant-laced water drinking child!

Greek Corner is for BALLERS! This place is great; my boyfriend brought me here the day after Valentines day for a post-romantic gyro . We enjoyed our meal very much. Our waitress was funny and not at all saccharine; when asked how she was doing, she replied, "God, I just can't wait to get out of here! I've been here since 10:30 this morning!" It was 9:30 PM, so we chuckled and left a big tip, because working in a restaurant for nearly 12 hours ain't a holiday. We started with the spinach pie (Spanakopitawhaaa?) and had scarfed it almost before the waitress set it down. We sat around lazily checking out the decor whilst waiting for our gyros, flagging down another waitress to ask for pita bread (we were starving; also, we are total fatties). Our gyros barely lasted 5 minutes. We rose from the table feeling satisfied but not overly stuffed, a sure sign of effective comfort food. The best part? Our meal barely hit the $20 mark. My boyfriend had enough $$ left over to buy me a Porsche.

The best Greek food that I've had next to my family's homemade! The only downside is the spinach pie portions are rather small and they never have the wine I want despite listing it on the menu.. I usually get the Octopus Salad, Gyro, lamb tips, sampler platter, and the Egg Lemon Soup. All real good.

Kai M.

Pretty good Greek place. Authentic Greek, quality ingredients, homey feel. I had the gyro and a bunch of appetizers etc. The apps were delicious, but I was surprised by gyro. I've had better gyros from sub shops, not to mention at the Greek Festival in Arlington( a must if you're a fan of Greek). Overall, a nice, cozy, delicious restaurant.

The Greek Corner Restaurant is located on Mass Ave., conveniently across the street from where the bike path comes out. When you walk in the door, there's a sea-inspired theme painted on the wall which some might find cheesy...but hey, they're Greek, so I found it tasteful. And the restaurant is really clean, which is probably not an easy image to present say, between 6 & 8pm. I'm not a huge Greek food eater, but the food at this place is so good. I got the falafel sandwich with fries. The sandwich had just the right amount of warm hummus. The fries are quite rectangular with a sweet tinge to them. I tried my girlfriend's avgolemono (egg-lemon soup with rice), and you could actually taste the lemon, though the soup was still sweet enough. And their spanakopita was perfectly flaky, with the right amount of spinach. The waitress didn't take too long to take down our order even during this busy time, which was nice. And the server didn't patronize me when I asked for ketchup and he had just set it down right in front of my face. The only real reason I dock a star is because, when we arrived, sure it was busy. And sure there were no tables available, and sure the staff was running around. But there were a couple of people up front, and if they'd just taken the time to say, "It's gonna be at least five or ten minutes," that would have been good. But no one really said anything until we were ushered to our table, and we felt kind of stupid just standing there and looking around. And the acoustics kind of suck...it can get really loud and I feel like I'm hearing all of the customers ten-fold. Other than that, it was all good -- savory food, and the employees for the most part really have a well-oiled machine running there. I'd definitely go back again.

Best Greek food in the Boston area. Live this place. It is a real neighborhood place and can get really crowded. They are not in a hurry to seat you, serve you, or get rid of you. Very relaxed and really delicious. Try pastitsio, calamari, chicken gyro, and rice pudding.

Good Greek food, one of the better ones, portions are not that huge but okay for the price. I would go back if I'm in the area but maybe not out of the way. Greek fries were awesome, had that for the first time and would definitely get them again. The vegetarian appetizer sampler had good variety, very fresh. The spinach pie was not very good (cold and dry), rest everything was good on the plate. The gyro and the roast lamb were both quite good. The meat was well cooked and properly spiced. RECOMMENDED!

Have eaten here several times in the past few months, and have never had a bad meal. Great falafel, hummus and babaganoush are solid as well. Atmosphere is nice and staff is very friendly, feels family-run but I could be wrong on that. My only complaint- they don't fire up the saganaki and give it the traditional 'opa!' treatment (if you've ever ordered saganaki, you probably know what I mean). It's still a good dish, but feels a little lacking without that little extra. Definitely recommend trying it, very reasonably priced and good to satisfy a greek food craving.

Last night I was struck by a hardcore craving for gyros, to which I immediately Yelped the word and was drawn to this page. Jesus... I just came back from this place, I'm stuffed, and even writing this review is making my mouth salivate for delicious gyro goodness. So obviously, I recommend trying a gyro... but that isn't all that is tasty! Try an order of the spanakopita, listed as 'Spinach Pie'" Its pretty big but it isn't all that heavy, so don't be afraid if you don't think you have a big stomach. (still salivating) Finally, as I left I ordered some baklava for the road. I didn't want to get my hopes up for it, because the rest of the meal was so good, and I figured it couldn't be all great.. Its the reason this became a 5 start rating instead of a 4. It was so perfect, I considered leaving my girlfriend on the side of the road so I could finish her half. And the best part? 2 meals, an appetizer, and desert... 25 bucks.

I like! Very nice! I had the chicken souvlaki sandwich. Rich yogurt sauce, fresh and tender chicken, and of course the prerequisite Saracha. Cheap and quick with friendly service. A must if you're hungry but on the go.

Sunny S.

Best Greek neighborhood place in all of Cambridge. From apps (avoglomeno soup and stuffed grape leaves) to sandwiches (gyros) to platters (veggie or meaty combos), everything is fresh and excellent! The service is always a little "slow" or Mediterranean-speed, so don't go if you want to rush through the meal and get on to see a show. Save that kind of eat-and-run for Harvard Sq's Greek Corner II place near Charlie's Kitchen -- same great sandwiches and yogurt-garlic sauce but greasier gyros and paper wraps instead of porcelain plates.

The Greek Corner is one of my favorite local restaurants. Cheap food prepared hot and fresh, served in a casual and easygoing environment. They do a ton of business, and are really nice people. The best dish here in my opinion is their gyro sandwich. It is simply awesome. They start with a thick, hearty fresh-baked pita (nothing at all like what you get at the supermarket, I assure you), add juicy grilled and seasoned beef and/or lamb, top with fresh veggies and a sour cream/dill sauce. The whole package tastes AMAZING, and that's what keeps me coming back. Just a great balance of hot/cold, savory and sour, fresh and freshly cooked. This is one of those things I could eat every meal for the rest of my life and be happy. As for the rest of the menu, I am not really a Greek connoisseur, so I can't say much. They have a decent array of Mediterranean stuff. Didn't care much for the Greek fries. The baklava makes for a great, sticky sweet ending to any meal.

Greek Corner has really good Chicken Gyros! We have ordered the steak and it was overcooked and tough. I would definitely go with the gyro. Very affordable and quick for take out, too.

Yes yes yes yes yes yes YES. OK, being a Greek-American, I've been to way more Greek restaurants and diner-style places than I'd care to count. So when I moved to Davis and saw the blue-and-white exterior with the ancient Greek-style lettering and neon-columned windows, all I could think was "uh oh." Boy, that was stupid of me! I was really pleasantly surprised by the decor and the FOOD (which, you know, in a restaurant is kind of important)! For one thing, the decor inside is a lot more toned-down than I was expecting. You won't find in here: Corinthian faux-marble columns and fountain-statues of Athina/Apollo/Zeus holding a wax model of the special of the day. You will find in here: Subtle wall decorations (like traditional Greek cooking utensils), just one wall mural. This place won't assault your sense of aesthetics! The food is wide-ranging, though overall pretty basic and homey, just the way most Greeks like it. Gyro, souvlaki, pita, meze -- all delicious and well-cooked. Their melitzanosalata (eggplant salad) had a lot of garlic and tomato in it, which was awesome. You can't go nuts with some staples like gyro or souvlaki, but their appetizers showed a lot of creativity. Skip the "greek salad" (lettuce salad with feta cheese is not Greek--Greeks don't eat lettuce salad! it's an Americanism, like the fortune cookie or chop suey) and get some of the eggplant salad or taramosalata with pita. That's how it's really done, Greek-style. In the end, the Greek Corner is comfort food. It's nothing sophisticated, but it's filling, delicious and cheap -- and sometimes that's all you want. Add my vote to the pile of fellow Greek-Americans who give this place a solid stamp of approval. Next time I have a hankering for some guilt-free gyro, I'm heading to the Corner.

My boy and I have been in search of a great Greek restaurant in Boston to beat his Greek aunts food. This is the place. The baklava alone beats hers, but I will never tell her this. After a quick yelp search, we were on our way. We ate until we thought we would explode, but it didn't matter, because every bite was amazing. The gyro was perfection, the yogurt sauce on it was like a little bite of heaven- smooth and flavorful. The lamb was juicy, not too chewy, and loaded into the gyro, to fulfill anyone's appetite. The spanikopita was unlike most I have had and I have never loved it so much before. It was light and airy. The cheese was flavorful, but didn't take away from the spinach. The drinks were good, and the bread, the bread was warm and heavenly. It is probably a good thing I have to drive here, otherwise, I would never eat at home. If this doesn't make you salivate, even a little, then go and try it for yourself. It is a hidden gem in Boston.

Great catering. Their Greek salad is AMAZING. I haven't had many of their menu items, but their veggie roll up is delicious as is their gyro. Their falafel roll up is good, but dry. One helping of any item here will keep you full for hours and hours.

I love the Feta Melt. It comes with big slices of tomatoes in a gyro wrap...mmm! Yum! Also, get a Greek beer. Just do it -- really! I like going to this place for lunch with a friend for something different (other than a cafe or a burrito). Prices aren't bad, food is satisfying.

Hooray for greek food! Greek food is that dirty little secret kind of eating. Like "shhh... I'm eating Greek food, don't look at me like that!" I ordered a gyro plate with fries, and the gyro was excellent, but the fries were a bit meh. Too greasy! So pretty much typical greek food, eh? Fine by me, because I love those crazy wraps. Unfortunately, Greek music flounced through out the restaurant. Now this would've been all fine and well if not for one thing; the movie/television show/etc; Borat. Every single song that got pumped through the sound system made me want to talk about disco dancing, sitting on comfortable chairs, or perhaps ping-pong. Every song sounds like a variant of the music before it. I'm quite sure there's a bunch of delicate groupings and so on and so forth that I am not accustomed to, but until that day, anything east of Italy and west of, say Mongolia, will make me think of Borat. Service was spotty at best, but I was also there at 4:00 PM on a Saturday so I'm not going to delete much, but it was a little insulting that we had to take the check to the front counter after waiting 10 minutes. I'd go again, but next time it's gonna be takeout.

I don't know much about greek food but i enjoyed greek corner. I ordered the lamb shank which the waitress told me was the best and most authentic item on the menu. The lamb was really tender but the flavor could have been better. The staff and the food were good enough to make me return.

Great , Great, Great food but...............................................Â..I went there with 8 people in my party...I have to start by saying I love greek food and went there by the score of the yelpers...........There was yelper on here last week who said he waited 15 min standing at the front enterance and was ignored before leaving and going to a place called franks down the street. He said that the staff was just rude and did not even recognize they where standing there. This past sunday I received the same welcoming. There was plenty of seating and the girl who works there "short with I believe a pony tail...dark hair" looked like she could have cared less to seat us. She honestly looked like she has a attitude. Could it be that she has worked there so long that she does not care to greet people happily ??? I was not the only person who noticed as it was discussed by us all after we left. I can tell you would go back because the food was so dam good. I think the owners or management are working in the kitchen and they need to know that something is going on at the front enterance of there buissness. I see you have been there along time but I feel that this issue should be taken care of. I'd suggest a host/hostess to handle everyone coming through the door and not rely on the waitress or waiter to set tables or deal with the customers coming through the doors.Again............awesome food !!!...............Its just leaves a bad taste in my mouth to be treated like crap when I first walk into a place of buissness. Ps --Our waitress was not the one who set the table and took us over to it...It was another young lady (taller ) and she did a superb job !!! The tip reflected that to her credit !!!

If you want large portions of traditional Greek food in Boston, then the Greek Corner is the place to go. Casual atmosphere, decently priced, and has a large variety of Greek plates. Closest T stop is Davis Square, about a 10-15 minute walk from there. Only went there once at the end of my senior year, but I wish I discovered it sooner. It was worth the hike from BU.

Tessa H.

Greek Corner is AMAZING!! I love it. I only do take out there, but have been meaning to dine in. The chicken and lamb kebabs are delicious and I always get the appetizer sampler which has amazing different types of hummus, dolmathakia (grape leaves), the best spanakopita I've ever ead and more delicious stuff. The pita bread you get with it is fresh baked and always warm and soft. The portions are giant and I always have leftovers. I haven't tried everything on the menu, but I highly recommend any of their kebab dinners or their gyros (I get them with chicken) as well as their grape leaf dinners. Go to the Greek Corner and you will not only not be sorry, you will be delighted.

Heather C.

er....4.5 stars? We stopped in to this place after seeing it on Diners Drives Ins and Dives. It was awesome. Husband said it was the best gyro he ever had (and it was indeed tasty) and I ordered the Pastitso which is almost like a greek lasagna. I wasn't too thrilled about mine but I had never had the dish before and nothing to compare, plus I got a corner piece without much meat at all. Salad was awesome and we also ordered a side of tzatziki to dip pita in and it was soooo good. It's been well over a year since we last visit and have been meaning to go back. The ambiance is nothing special but that's not what you go for.

Dawn E.

I am deeply enamored of Greek Corner. It's super cheap and delicious to the extreme. The vegetarian platter is a great value with its array of Mediterranean delights, and it helps that everything on it is SO. GOOD. I have to say I'm kind of suspicious about how they get their grape leaves to be so perfect. Are they witches? In that case, GC, I am under your spell.

Mina O.

We heard about Greek Corner on Food Network (Diners, Drive-In & Dives) and we had to try it! The food was fantastic but I'm giving them 3 stars because our service was horrible. Which ruined the experience for us. There were people around us that sat down the same time as we did and some cases after us. They were served before us, finished their meals & paid for their check before we even got our food. We asked our waitress a couple times and she kept telling us it was coming up. Personally, I think she forgot to put our order in. 45 mins later we finally got our food. Our waitress didn't even apologize for the wait. Even though our meal was absolutely delicious (gyro, moussaka & beef kabob), I'm hesitant in going back. Maybe our server had a bad night. Who knows, but whatever the reason is - still unacceptable. At minimum, apologize for the wait.

If I could eat in only one restaurant for the rest of my life, this would be it. Their swordfish kabobs are awesome, falafel delicious, gyro juicy and flavorful, and the appetizers are fantastic. If you like Greek food, you need to come to this place!

Eric Y.

I frequent Greek Corner about once every 2 months or so and really enjoy the food here every time. I usually order the same thing (appetizer sampler and gyro plate) and always satisfied at the end of the meal. Service at times can be slow if its busy, but overall a great experience-home-style Greek cooking in a causal atmosphere. Best Greek food I found in the local area and will keep returning!

Very good greek food in a family style ambience and reasonable price range. Used to frequent this place a lot while I was a student in Boston. My favorite is Baked Lamb with Greek salad!

jerry b.

we came here on a weekday nite so the place wasn't crowded but I still had a rushed feeling as we gave our drink order while we looked at the menu. the young lady asked if we were ready to order. when she brought our drinks she asked again. we ordered an app, the saganaki, love it & in our fave down in nj they lite in front & every one in the place shouts "ooopah". we ordered our food which came quickly & was great. My wife couldn't finish her gyro, & i had a tough time finishing my sausage meal. I didn't care for the salad being on the same plate as the meal so next time I will ask for separate plate. There is no parking lot, we were kicked out of the lot next door even tho bank was closed. according to the attendant it belong to another restaurant about 4 or 5 blocks down the street. order 2 gyros to go a few days later w/extra dressing on the side, superb.

Love the Greek Corner. Portions are large, and they serve Loukaniko (sweet pork sausage, grilled and doused with lemon), my favorite food growing up.

Jamie N.

Are you hungry? Get ready for this. Climb the stairs to Greek Corner, rain or shine, and order yourself a SOUVLAKI PLATE. Get the fries or the rice with it, either way will be TASTY. Have some tziki on the side to dip your meat and pita into. The same dude behind the counter will always be there. He's quick with the orders and the change (and make sure you have ACTUAL change, because this place does not take cards). Wash it all down with an icy cold Coke from the mini-fridge next to the counter, and OPA! - you're in a taverna in Athens. Only minus the noise from speeding "motos" (Vespas) and the salivation of stray cats and dogs. Instead, you can check out that creepy puppet show guy across the street in front of Bertucci's, or take your food away with you and do some of your own salivating in private. Mmmm...MEAT.

Susie C.

Fantastic. Inexpensive. Great for take-out or eating in. I usually do take-out because I use them mainly after a long day at work when I'm too tired to cook. I love, love, love the sqordfish kabob dinner, the chicken kabob dinner, the liquid heaven avoglemano soup, and the greek salad. Most dinner platters some with their yummy yellow rice and a huge scoop of salad, plus pita bread, which I always use to make tiny swordfish sandwiches with a little rice, salad, and fish... then roll it up and mmm.. so good. Plus, really good greek beer, and a truly awesome appetizer-to-share sampler that comes with a mix of all things delicious that you dip your pita bread into and hope you don't spill all over yourself. Totally recommended, and I feel lucky to live right around the corner.

An old haunt - haven't been there in years, so this is more a historical review. Simply fantastic baked lamb shanks, accompanied with a salad and rice, for a great price. We also used to always get the fried calamari - also excellent. I've heard various things about Greek Corner lately - none of them good - but I'll have to see for myself.

Been here a couple times now and it hasn't failed to impress. The cheap roll-ups are a good option if you are on a budget. Service is good considering the crowd that we encountered both times we were there.

My boyfriend and I love this place. The atmosphere is not pretentious, our server is always extremely nice and I love the fact that they have frappe. Just like the ones that I force his cousin to make me everytime I'm over her house! Yes, I force her. If you have not tried it, you must. It's a whole different coffee experience! And being the caffeine junkie that I am, I give up my Starbucks and dunkies for this. On to the food, the boyfriend loves the gyro. He says it reminds him of the home he gets back home. So, being that I've never gone to Greece, I'll take his word for it. I always find the food pretty good, a lot like the one we get at his family house and the atmosphere is more of a comfort food type. I have to say, I love their fried zucchini's and hummus. I'm so addicted to their hummus. My favorite dish there is their vegetarian plate (and I'm not even vegetarian!). All in all, I always leave there with my wallet still intake, my stomach full and with a smile on my face.

1 Corner Special with fries and a Mythos, please. Thank you! This is now the only thing I ever get there, and it gets 5 stars, easy. I did have one experience, some time ago, with browned and gross lettuce in a Greek salad. I complained, they gave me a new salad, and I didn't go back in there for quite some time. Now I love it, though.
(5)
Robert R.

I thought this place was very authentic. I hadn't had Greek food in a long time and was very happy with the food quality as well as the atmosphere. I lived in Greece for two year back in the 1980s and miss the whole eating experience, this was as close as I've seen in the U.S. The Tzatziki, fried zucchini and Spanakopita were very good. I think I ordered one of everything, I sat there and ate as much as I could hold. The waitress, while very attractive wasn't very friendly. Overall this was a great place to get real Greek food.

Liz L.

I have lived in Greece (though I am not personally Greek) and am extremely picky about Greek food in the US. From other reviewers, perhaps this would have been a different experience at dinnertime than lunchtime. The service was OK. The waitstaff delivered the wrong entree to me and didn't notice our waving her down till my dining companion actually got up and went over to tell her. When she came back, she seemed more amused than concerned, blaming the chef for putting the wrong plate on our tray. Later, when we were trying to pay the bill that had been delivered, she was too busy typing text messages on her cellphone to notice our again trying to flag her, and again my dining companion had to go over to her to get service. My fellow diner said that she was probably overwhelmed at being the only person waiting tables at the time we were there (there were perhaps 6-8 occupied tables), but I didn't see that as an excuse to be standing off out of sight of most of the tables and not even bothering to check on people. In terms of the food: As an appetizer, we ordered the tzadziki. It was pretty good, with lots of garlic (which I prefer), but it tasted to both myself and my dining companion as if the yogurt had been cut with sour cream, which is not just not traditional, but makes tzadziki taste much creamer than usual and cuts the taste of the herbs (a shame, as they tasted like they were fresh). As a main dish, I ordered the vegetarian combination plate, which consisted of a huge, bland, very atraditional salad (mostly iceberg lettuce, which I did not ever even see in Greece!) piled high in the middle, with two vegetarian-style grape leaf rolls and a piece of spanakopita (spinach-feta mix in phyllo) on one side and a giant lone falafel ball on the other side, placed smack in the middle of a little pool of hummus. Despite the inelegant placing on the plate, the grape leaf rolls were excellent, tasting distinctly like the chef had used fresh-squeezed lemon juice. The falafel ball was pretty dry (not surprisingly, as it is difficult to cook a large falafel ball the whole way through without having that happen) and the hummus was a bit gluey. The spanakopita, which was one of my favorite lunches in Greece, tasted surprisingly bland for a combination that is usually so delicious; it tasted like it was mostly spinach with a bit of feta, and as if the spinach had either been overcooked or come from the freezer, and the phyllo surprised me with its lack of flakiness. The only thing I ate out of the large centerpiece salad was the feta, which was pretty good but not the greatest I've ever tried. If I go back, I will order a plate of just the grape leaf rolls. My dining companion got the village salad as an entree, which was supposed to be done in a traditional Greek salad style, but the tomatoes were way too coarsely chopped - as if the chef had simply halved or perhaps quartered large tomatoes - and my companion said that the chef had put too much oil on the salad. At the end of the meal, there was a pile of giant pieces of tomato on the other plate to match the large pile of iceberg lettuce on mine.

I have eaten here many many times and am almost always delighted with my food. There are certain dishes that they do really really well and I've learnt that it is better to stick to those. The highlights: The Chicken Kabob is outstanding. It is simple and perfectly cooked. The chicken is tender, moist, smoky and delicious. The Tzatzki and Taramasalata are fantastic, although because they are home made are sometimes a bit inconsistent. I've had Tarama once there that didn't taste at all like the other times, but when it's good it's great. The home made Greek sausages are wonderfully complex in flavour and addictive. I also can't get enough of their grilled shrimp. They are delicious and I always wish the portion was twice as large. The lowlights: I hate to mention these as everything else I've had here has been really stellar, BUT how can you call yourself a Greek restaurant and not have a fantastic Moussaka? I was completely underwhelmed by the Moussaka and almost didn't come back again, but decided to give them another chance and have been thrilled with everything on all subsequent visits. I have never ordered the dry, bland moussaka again. The Bechamel sauce which normally can save a so so Moussaka was terribly blah and the eggplant was also dry and heavy. I've had some Moussaka's that are so sublime that they make you want to cry. It's time for the Greek Corner to stop resting on it's laurels and redo the recipe for the Moussaka. I haven't ordered the Pastitsio as I'm sure that if the Bechamel sauce on the Moussaka was terrible then it would also be terrible on the Pastitsio as well. The Dolmades (stuffed grape leaves) were also underwhelming. They tasted like every canned one I've ever had.

Recently returned from an overseas trip... Sorry for being absent, Yelp. Last night went to Greek Corner Restaurant to get my fill of kebab. It was delicious, and certainly deserving of the Best of Boston award. Hearty portion sizes and pleasant service.

If you have reduced your dining out budget due to the economy, you should definitely check out the Greek Corner's always delicious and always inexpensive menu! I love everything about the Greek Corner - friendly servers, cozy atmosphere, large menu, quick service, and fresh ingredients. I would go there just for their Tzatziki and Falafel if the rest of their food wasn't equally as declious. I also love their charcoal cooked meats. Their menu will delight vegetarians and carnivores alike. Oh, and take out is super fast.

Tony P.

Fantastic food. The service can be a little slow so I usually get it to go. I highly recommend the Gyro plate as well as the lemon egg drop soup that begins with "A" that I would butcher if I tried to pronounce, spell, etc... Prices are reasonable and portions are large. The Gyro plate will usually take me from dinner to leftover lunch.

I've been eating here for years. It's very consistent. In fact, I don't think the menu has changed in all that time. The food is fresh and flavorful. Good soups and sandwiches. The eggplant salad is delicious. More regular salads can be disappointing as they are mostly iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, onions kind of thing. The fried calamari is always done well. The various eggplant dips, tsatziki, hommus etc. are always dependable. Full dinners can be hit or miss. Had a roast lamb once that was chewy and room temperature--a braised lamb that was very nice. Service can be slow when it is busy. Not much on atmosphere but food makes up for it. Better value for lunch than full course dinners.

This is my favorite restaurant in all of Boston. It has a very low key family style atmosphere. I don't think it's possible to order something from the Greek Corner without it being totally delicious. The chicken kabab has that bbq'd taste together with the Greek spices it is so scrumptious.

lisse g.

Go here. Now. The people are so friendly -the food is so good. I can't say enough about this little gem. I've been going there for 5 years and everyone I have ever brought has fallen in love with this place. Get the sampler platter, the baked lamb to split, and a bottle of Anastasi Red and you're out of there for under $45- and you'll be stuffed. Just a quick walk down the bike path from Davis. You can't get a better deal.

Yassouuu! Greek Corner is the BEST! I love this place. I have been going here for years and have never once been disappointed. The food is great, owners are very nice and the staff is nice as well. Some favorites are the Avgolemono Soup (Egg-Lemon soup), Souvlaki, Saganaki (Fried cheese), Gyro dinners, Kalamarakia Tiganita (basically fried calamari) and GREAT pastichio!!!..And the sweets, don't forget those! Greek Corner has great authentic rice pudding and flan...both to die for! Everything you could ask for and more..Great family atmosphere or great to bring your special someone for a cozy little dinner. Opa, Kalinihta!
(5)
Rich O.

Love the Corner. The egg lemon soup (AVGOLEMONO?) is the cure for the common cold and some winter nights I'll just stop for a cup or 2 to go. The pasticho and souvlaki are great (please excuse this Irish boy's Greek spelling). It's not really a place to linger but the service is efficient. If you want good Greek food without having to make a night of it the Greek Corner rocks

Anna-Laura S.

i actually am never able to convince myself to try anything other than their gyros, i love them so much. occasionally they skimp on the tzatziki sauce, but that's my one complaint. sometimes i'll get some greek fries, which are delicious, and then the baklava is tasty. maybe someday i'll try something else, but really, i am always in bliss when i can just get my hands on something like a gyro or a dÃ¶ner kebap.

Ty V.

Decided to try this place out after reading the reviews on Yelp and I was definitely NOT disappointed. Small, causal atmosphere that is complimented by great food. Gyros plate was excellent and service was quick and friendly. Needless to say, I'll definitely be coming back to try more of their dishes.

Its true. You can get a decent meal here without breaking the bank! Under $15 a person for some fantastic food! I have grown to really love this place- the only issue is driving to it, and no subway stations nearby- but I'm from MT- I don't like city driving. The wait staff here are fantastic- the setting is a little off in that its lacking in any intimacy. There is one large dining room with several plain looking tables. The food is what any meal is really about- so I'll compromise on the decor. The food is amazing here- its just fantastic. and the desert is to die for. How can anybody go wrong?

Went with the in-laws for a lunch. The generously-sized appetizers of tzatziki and taramasalata were raved about around the table (from folks who were thoroughly apprehensive when I suggested them), and the souvlaki, gyros and roast lamb were all hits. And a bargain at less than $75 for four people, including drinks and tip! We'll definitely be going back.

Last night my bf and I went to the Greek Corner to try their gyros since we are on the hunt for the best gyro in Mass! I knew of this restaurant before and never been inside (my father wasnt to pleased with this place so I never went) so we figured we would give it a shot since all the great reviews from Yelp. The restaurant is clean and very organized with nice greek decor. They only had 2 servers but our waitress was attentive when needed to be and apologized for bringing us diet coke instead of coke (yes we care!). Anyways, I ordered the Lamb Gryo combo with a greek salad and my boyfriend ordered the same but with the fries. In my gyro there was a TON of tzatiki sauce and it was VERY garlicy even hours later i could still taste the garlic in my mouth...not so pleasant. The meat seemed to be cubed and not shaved like a gyro normally should be cut but I didnt see a gyro up in the back on the spit. The pita was tasty but not crisp enough for me either. The greek dressing was the most classic oil/vingaer with seasoning not the creamy type and I got a small butt of the lettuce bottom on my plate. My bf's gyro was the same way but had to take at least 3 bites to even get to any meat and he didnt have a ton of tzatiki sauce like I did either. He also got the fries which were tasty but not crispy but very yummy I believe. We chose to get a rice pudding for there and a galatabouriko to go which I was very excited since it is one of my favorites. The rice pudding was good but the galatabouriko was a let down, not very sweet with no honey at all and a bunch of cinnamon on top. Did not satisify my craving of a yummy dessert. Overall I wouldnt go back here as I much rather prefer the Farmer's Grill in Newton so driving out there (from East Boston) is defintely worth it in my book. But I think if you live in the Cambridge/Boston area and you are not to picky on food like we are then this is a good quick gryo spot to go to.

The gyros here are big, bomb, and like 5 bucks. The lemon chicken soup's pretty good, too. The gyros would be outstanding drunk-food if only they'd stay open later... Side note, parking is ALWAYS at least a small hassle here, so prep your mind. (it's worth the hassle.)
(4)
Ken B.

this is a good place to get good quality Greek food for reasonable prices. I typically gets the Village Salad with chicken, which is just your basic Greek Salad + umm chicken. all the ingredients are fresh and tasty and at less than $10 it's a good deal. they are pretty fast if you phone in your order ahead of time, but the service for sit down meals can be painfully slow. I think it's a better place for takeout than for a sit down meal, but do both with regularity.

If I lived closer to Greek Corner, I might be in danger of going there every day. It's a small family-owned business, and the folks who work there are extremely overworked, though you'd never know it to talk to them. They're friendly and professional, and very warm. We love the low-key atmosphere, the completely reasonable prices, and even the open seating. We have taken countless out-of-town visitors and local friends there--of all types of foody allegiances--and everyone's loved it. When we got married, we kept saying that if were were marrying in Boston, we totally would have had them host our rehearsal dinner. They're that fun, and that good. (I think they might offer some catering, but I'm not sure.) The food! It's amazing. As someone with more than a few weird food allergies, I love that Greek Corner's foods are relatively unadorned...if you order chicken, it's basically grilled chicken marinated in a touch of lemon and basic spices...and yet each dish is so tasty as to suggest a ton of ingredients. Everything is fresh, and you can see into the kitchen from the front desk, so...they've got nothing to hide, I guess! As for what to order, it's hard for me to stray from my favorite items, though I do vary my menu on occasion: chicken gyro sandwich is amazing, and unlike others I like their Greek salad a lot. (NB: Once in a while they'll use what tastes like a prepared salad dressing, which I hate but my husband likes; usually it's the homemade kind, my preference. You be the judge!) Hummus is incredible, a bit more liquidy and garlicky than other places. Love it. If you go late on a very busy night, sometimes you'll even get the gyro wrap bread instead of the traditional pita (if they run out of regular pita), and that stuff is like food of the gods. Spanakopita is excellent and decadent but not greasy, really packed with flavor, but not too much cheese. Also love the spanakopita plate, which comes with a salad and a side--the Greek fries are just okay in my opinion (don't like lemon on my fries), but the regular fries are unapologetically yummy. What else? My husband loves the lamb gyro and/or lamb plate (sorry, Lambchop!), but if you get this, be sure to ask for the roasted lamb, as the other kind of lamb (grilled, maybe?) is not as flavorful. I'm allergic to nuts but the hubby also swears by their baklava. Guests we've brought have loved the avgolemono soup, very traditional, as well as the steak tips and pork chops. It's a great place to go with vegetarians since there are so many tasty choices. Here's another tip: if it's too late/rainy/whatever to go out, you can easily call ahead and pick up (usually takes no more than ten minutes), or if you're within range diningin-dot-com will deliver, though you should beware, because diningin charges you more for each item than Greek Corner does. Something else: notice that after-hours you can park on the wall-side of the bank parking lot just past Greek Corner. Sometimes it's tough to find a spot on the street. All in all, my favorite food-spot in the Boston area. Enjoy!!

We went here after reading all of the other great Yelp reviews and we were pleasantly surprised. The wait staff were extremely pleasant, the food was delicious and the prices were very reasonable. I had the chicken gyro and my wife had the beef and lamb combo gyro and both were amazing. The only drawback is that we started with the falafel appetizer and the falafels appeared to be glazed with something and were rather tough and dry (maybe this is just a different way of cooking them - I have always had them much softer). The rest of the appetizer plate was delicious tough.

Were it not for yelp, I would never have touched this place. One look at it makes you wonder whether you've died and woken up in 1970 when this was an exotic European diner. Though the decor hasn't aged well, the ingredients are timeless: outstanding food, at a cheap price with friendly, if occasionally slow service. I've made this my new favorite place for a lazy Sunday lunch. The comfort food and laid back vibe makes it a perfect place to hang out with friends and forget that tomorrow is Monday.

I hate to give such a bad review but I tried this place a couple of times now after reading the reviews and I have to say the people giving this place three or more stars have to have had their taste buds removed or just have no clue what real Greek food tastes like. Everything was of fast food quality, never again. Sorry

My wife, daughter, and I visited there today after a six year hiatus. We used to go there all the time in the 90s when it first opened. The food is just as good as it was back then. The lemon soup, feta, chicken gyro, and butterfly shrimp dinner were all great. Make sure you leave room for the Baklava. And very reasonable prices. My only complaint was that it was a little cold inside, but this is more a criticism of Boston in March than the restaurant itself. Warm up, baby!

An awesome little gem ! Simple decor, friendly service, and delicious food, all at bargain prices, what more can you ask for ? Try this family owned restaurant for a relaxed lunch, enjoy the fabulous egg lemon soup, indulge in the amazing gyros, and don't forget the home made baklava before you leave. Speed of service is average. Prices are low. This little jewel has been a perennial fave.

Laura T.

Love this place. It's nothing fancy - but they do what they do quite well. They offer simple, reliable, delicious, and unpretentious food. Don't miss the falafel (sooo goood), hummus, village salad, gyros, and the greek beer.

Laura M.

You want the best Greek food near Boston...well you'll find it here at the Greek Corner!. I have been dining here for nearly 20 years and I have NEVER had a bad meal. Always fantastic! The grilled chicken Gyro is a must! Save room for the Baklava...just too yummy!

K S.

We had a craving for gyros and were pleased to find the Greek Corner nearby for lunch. The gyros were fantastic with warm pita bread, fresh veggies, savory lamb, and just the right amount of tzatziki sauce. We also tried the Greek fries which are sprinkled with lemon juice, oregano, and cheese. The friendly service was a little slow to take orders but our food was delivered fairly quickly. Overall a great local spot for fresh Greek food.

I go wild for this place. You cannot beat the appetizer sampler platter for 2 (what's in it? Who cares- it's awesome) and the House Special Gyro. Holy crap, that gyro is good. It has the most delicious garlic sauce on it that I've ever had. Not sure what another reviewer was talking about with the ground meat- when I've gone it has been slices of lovely, succulent lamb, but I haven't been there in a couple of months. I hope they haven't changed the sandwich given the stupid economy. :( And the prices are oh-so-right.

NAWWWWWW, JK!!!! this place is fantastic. fan-friggin-tastic. the food was delicious, the service was great, and it's cute. way cute. definitely go for the sampler platter. and i know it may not be the most authentic, but how cool is it that they have a veggie gyro? yeah, pretty damn cool.

Justine D.

Their food is SO good and the prices are totally reasonable and the service has always been timely and friendly. I love this place! They gyros are awesome, the greek salad is great, the grape leaves and moussaka are also wonderful. I haven't had anything here that I didn't like. Awesome!

I actually created my Yelp account for the sole purpose of giving this restaurant a poor review after seriously shabby service. We ordered delivery from Greek Corner via Mix Menu. We ordered two salads and some Greek fries, but when we received our food there was no dressing with our salads. We immediately called Mix Menu and when they were of no help we phoned Greek Corner directly. I understand that their food is delivered through a 3rd party delivery company, but that does mean that they shouldn't take accountability for their service or their product. After I politely explained to the manager what had happened he told me that dressing is put on the salad unless otherwise noted. I explained to him that I understood this, but that I was holding two bone dry salads. Instead of apologizing in any way, he proceeded to argue with me that there was dressing on the salad as if I was an idiot for not being able to understand this. I repeated that I understood their process but that there was no dressing on our salads. He then told me that I could complain to Mix Menu, but that it really wasn't their problem. Needless to say we were very disappointed in this service. Not only did we not receive any dressing, the salads were really small and overpriced especially for their size. You can definitely do better from your average Greek neighborhood pizza spot. Even though I was excited to see other very authentic Greek food on the menu like Tsatziki and Dolmathes we will not be ordering from this place again after this experience.

It's cheap and alright, but i wouldn't go out of my way for this place. I got the gyros platter. It was fine, much like one gets on most any corner in NYC. But I'm no expert, so read the other reviews.

Freedah D.

I've been eating at the Greek Corner off-and-on for years, and I still think it's the best value-quality option in Cambridge. The food is excellent, the portions are generous (but not obscene) and the service is always friendly. Sometimes the kitchen is a little slow so don't go there if you don't want a leisurely meal. Overall, it's terrific.

Amy C.

My best friend growing up was Greek, so I've have the great fortune of spending several months in Greece eating food made by a real-life Greek yaya (as in grandma). This place comes pretty close to the real deal. Julie, one of the waitresses, is a perfect complement to the no-nonsense atmosphere. She's pretty hilarious if you get her started...

Solid Greek chow. Service is efficient and friendly. I've heard this place gets packed, but for a quick weekend lunch it's good.

Pete P.

how can you not love goerge and his employees 4 stars? they work hard, they have very reasonable prices and the food is consistently good. its not epic, but its always good. the atmosphere is very budget but i prefer it as long as the prices are fare. they have good vegetarian and even vegan options and are always friendly. it doesnt look like it but they do serve beer and wine and their tzatziki is the best i have had in boston. i even brought some to my 85 year old grandmother from greece and she loves it. this place is better for lunch than dinner. if i had to drive out to it, i probably wouldnt go, but if you can walk, hit it and hit it often! PS - it really helps to know what to order... for example, i stay away from the swordfish kabobs... i dont think they get turned over enough... not so sure how the fish is...

Mc I.

Love the Greek Corner. Cheap, fast, pretty murals on the wall, delcious tzatziki. They did give me the wrong meat in my gyro once, but when I told them they quickly whipped up exactly what I ordered and let us keep the other gyro free of charge, so I can't complain.

A cute, casual place with a friendly feel. Service staff were kind and helpful. Affordable prices. The galaktoboureko for dessert was awesome! I'll be going back for sure. ...Parking may not be easy to find the first time around. And hopefully you won't get seated too near the door when it's cold out. There's only so much a curtain can do.

love this place. food is amazing- by far the best greek I've had in the area. Last time we did take out we ended up waiting awhile. I was starting to get upset, but the guy included baklava for free as an apology for making us wait. completely redeemed it in my opinion and I definitely plan to go back

Adrienne B.

I love this place. My boyfriend used to live on Dudley St. so it was super convienent to pick up a quick meal here when we couldnt' think of anything else. You have to like Greek Food to like this place though cause its all they have. The greek salads are amazing and the dressing is really garlicy so be prepared to smell like it when you're done eating. The hummus is great, the calamari is great, the chicken kabobs are moist and tasty- its all good. The staff are very sweet and the food comes up fast. Definitely check it out!

I was looking for a laid back spot to have lunch with an old friend, and this one turned out to be perfect! The food was delicious, the service very attentive and kind and it was a great overall experience. I enjoyed the specialty sandwich with lamb that I ordered. And my favorite part was a European style iced coffee which was fantastic!

I'm writing this off of memory, but I do remember a really delicate yet flavorful pastitio served with a side of salad and some bread. A worthy little corner restaurant. I wasn't as impressed with the salad as fellow reviewers seemed to be.

This place has consistently amazing food and pretty good service. I have no complaints. It's just a shame they don't deliver!

Eloise M.

Some of the best authentic Greek food available in the area. Good prices for a large amount of food and definitely worth trying. I highly reccomend the gyro plate. The beef is cooked to perfection and seasoned deliciously. The plate is served with a lightly dressed salad with feta and fresh tomato. The optional rice is very tasty though nothing special. The gyro plate is served with perfect Greek tzakiki sauce and a helping of fresh pita. Mmm, I think I'll go back soon.

The other night I had the sampler plate appetizer for my dinner. It was delicious and really hit the spot. For dessert I ordered the flan which had been freshly made that day. It was the best flan ever!

Jason C.

Great place - good, high quality and very inexpensive Greek food. We usually get the chicken or lamb gyro and they're the best I've had in the area. Very fresh and flavorful. The Greek fries are solid too, although a little soggy at times so I'd recommend ordering them extra crispy. I've had the falafel and it's solid but not spectacular. Very good baklava if you want something sweet after the meal. I usually do take out - which is really quick but service for dining in has been very attentive the times I've eaten there.
(4)
Eric G.

Hands down best Gyro I have had in Boston. This is definitely a must-try place in Cambridge. Gyro was a little crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, the perfect "well-done" that I always look for but did not have to ask for at this place! Service was great too, very quick and courteous. Can't believe it took me 5 years to try this place. Wish it was closer to my workplace that way I could have it every week!

Dan C.

First impression of Greek Corner was that it must be pretty good with the long line out the door. Party of 2 and we were seated in 10 minutes without a reservation around 6pm on a Thursday night. It wasn't until 10 minutes passed before our server arrived to take our drink and appetizer orders though. The grape leaves and Greek fries were familiar so we ordered them. I enjoyed the grape leaves, particularly the depth of lemon flavor, even though they were slightly colder than what my company would prefer. (She's Albanian and likes em warm.) The Greek fries were her favorite and she actually took her entree to go because they were that good. Meanwhile the gyro I had was delicious. Can't go wrong with lamb and beef wrapped in a pita with cucumber yogurt sauce and veggies. I had shawarma the other night but I love the gyro more. To finish our meals, we each requested a piece of baklava that ended up being huge and freshly baked! So far it's the best I've tried yet with the perfect flaky texture on the outside and nutty goodness on the inside. I usually hate sweet desserts for their decadence but, even with the honey drizzled on top, the baklava was not cloyingly sweet. Perhaps it was due to the Greek coffee I sipped on the side. If diabetes weren't a risk factor I'd have eaten another baklava for sure. Overall, the food and value here is a 5/5. Just the service could improve with a 3/5 that is probably due to high table turnover during peak hours. P.S. I could not stop staring at the signed portrait of Guy Fieri!

Gonen M.

I have been to Greek Corner so many times, and never was disappointed! Service is always great, food is awesome. My favorite is the grilled chicken skewers pita sandwich (it is called souvlaki in Greece, but I guess it is called chicken sandwich in Greek corner. I just say chicken souvlaki and they get what I mean) with Greek fries (hand-cut fries with a little parmesan on top). I don't like their desserts that much, but still their baklava is better than what other places would pass as baklava...
(5)
Cristina R.

OPA! This cozy corner is the most authentic Greek spot in the area and continues to have a humble feel despite it's Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives debut. Guy Fieri doesn't kid around. The gyro is indeed delectable. But the moussaka is where I've found my Greek Corner comfort. Flavorful ground beef is served in a large lasagna-like slice with eggplant and creamy yet somehow fluffy cheese. It's truly love in food form. All of the specialty plates include a Greek salad and choice of rice or fries, so you've got a hefty meal on your hands for around $13. The rest of the menu items I've sampled including the soups and pita sandwiches have also been scrumptious and affordable. It's all Greek to me!
(5)
Tony J.

The food is very good, and the place is really friendly. The servers are fun, and contribute to the nice, relaxed atmosphere. They also do takeout, so if you're having a large party, consider getting food from here. It's one of the few places where I've actually enjoyed the lamb, since I don't like the taste of lamb.

So when Jason L and I first started dating, I felt the need to try to impress him with my "good taste." So, I brought him to Greek Corner. Greek Corner has all the elements of a "cool place." It has fresh food, big portions, zesty service and cheap prices. There is also Greek coffee and the MOST DELICIOUS OF GYROS. The gryo plate is a a gifts from the gods. The meat is out of this world tender and flavorful. The spinach pie is flaky and dense and cheesy. The coffee is strong. As the Irish would say, "it puts hair on your chest." The decor is non-fussy and diner-esque. Perfect for a casual get-to-know-you date, or pre-drinking dinner. I always feel like I am back in NYC - St. Marks Place, or the Village, specifically, when I come here. Parking, is easy to find. Take out available. I could end with some Mount Olympus puns - but I won't. Go here, eat well, leave with a full tummy and wallet.

Mary S.

We love Greek Corner and get take out often. We have also had great dining-in experiences (including with our toddler). The avgolemono soup is wonderful, as are the chicken skewers, salad, spinach pie, and there's just something special about the rice pilaf.

Tuli S.

MMM! Get the Gyro Plate! I've been here many times through HS and college and I haven't found a better gyro in the Boston area yet. Really awesome and worth visiting. Service is good and the food is consistent.

Damien S.

Just when I thought Zo had me off carnival-style gyros, Greek Corner smacks me in my naive mouth. Of course, tzatziki and shredded lettuce go flying; Greek Corner is so strong. Plopped the tush at a two-top by the front door/drinks cooler/TV/to go counter, and zoned in immediately on the lunch special: any sandwich and a side (fries, chips, soup or salad) for $8.50. You may be about to ask, "Does this include their avgolemono soup?" Yes, interruptopotamus; yes it does. Now, let me finish before you try to jump in again. The sub-$10 meal coupled the piping hot, creamy and tangy cuppa egg, lemon and rice special, with a beef and lamb wrap in a warm, toasty (and heavily seasoned) pita. Arguably the best in its class, the gyros meat is tender is pip-poppin' with street flavor, if only there was a bit more of it! Both the protein and dat dilly sauce got jammed in the back by a veritable onslaught of iceberg. Oh, if it were a bit more balance, I would've cried while eating. And not just because of all the topsoil we're losing to erosion. This sandwich is scrumptious. Watched Colombia eke out a victory on the in-house CRT, put the bill on plastic and bounced out in under 30 minutes. Can't spare another moment? Get it to go, son - no fewer than four folks grabbed a white sack of goodness during my lunch break. I know because their big heads blocked my view of the World Cup. Super friendly staff? Check. I've no doubt the next visit to Greek Corner will yield that fifth star. And the next visit is in the immediate future.

I have had take out a couple of times and have been wowed. Big portions of tasty fresh food. What else could I want? I'm crazy about the spanakopita and the stuffed grape leaves. Salad and pilaf with many entrees and TONS of pita bread. Yay!
(4)
Alee G.

The moussaka here is sooooo good!! The stuffed grape leaves aren't too bad either. Give it a try!
(5)
Michelle S.

It was alright, not sure I'd come back. Service was mediocre and slightly inattentive. We started with the hommus which came with very bland pita bread. From that alone I was nervous about the rest of the meal. I went for a Gyro sandwich plate and got double salad. The greek salad was good and once I dug into the gyro I was like yep ok this is why people like it... however it was very heavy on the tzatziki to the point where I just had to stop eating it because it was over powering the sandwich. My friend got the greek salad with chicken wrap. She pulled out a whole chicken tender from her wrap, it wasn't cut up at all.. If I lived a bit closer I'd consider just take out gyros with light on the tzatziki but I don't see myself traveling there to sit and eat.
(3)
Liz S.

I tried this place for takeout because of the stellar reviews. I ordered the vegetarian platter, and got a huge portion of rice, hummus, pita, spanikopita, and Greek salad, with a cube of feta, two grape leaves and a giant falafel ball. And, meh. They didn't give me any plastic cutlery or napkins which made eating back at the hotel an interesting challenge! And it was all fine, it just didn't match my expectations from reviewers of the best Greek food they've ever had. Maybe all their effort is on good gyros, but to me, your falafel shouldn't be a giant dry ball. I think getting basic Mediterranean foods right is an important staple. And I am also vegetarian and I want to enjoy my meal just as much as the carnivores. The hole in the wall Mediterranean places in DC are much better.
(3)
Beth J.

I love this place! The service was awesome and the food was amazing. We shared the spinach pie, dolmathes, gyro plate and had baklava for dessert. It has been a really long time since we've had Greek food this good. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Patrick F.

I ordered Foodler delivery from Greek Corner and was very impressed with the quality of food.. I ended up getting the Chicken Kabob dinner (see photo) which came with Rice Pilaf, Seasoned Grilled Chicken, and a small salad. The food arrive hot and tasty, and the chicken was grilled and seasoned perfectly - juicy and delicious, which is hard to get with delivery! My one complaint is that the side of tzatziki was TINY.. for $2.50 it should have been a good amount. Not to mention that tzatziki should just come standard with your meal especially at that size!
(4)
E F.

Oh yeah. When I lived around the corner, this place was my jam. It's a little funny that they still post all their awards on the front window, even those now very very outdated, but it doesn't mean they aren't still great. Big portions but not always big flavor - still a great choice.

Bryan W.

The Ultimate yeer-oh!!! What makes this place different from any other Greek joint?? They have a combination yeer-oh that has ground beef and lamb!!!! I know... nothing special about that huh? WRONG!!!! This is a great sandwich! I will give it the bald fat guy approval . ( be sure to grab a few napkins) Nice taste and texture and nothing but fresh ingredients were used! I love Pastitso but it got vetoed and we had the Moussaka instead. Nice slices of eggplant, ground beef (I thought it was lamb) potatoes and a lightly spicy. I wasn't happy with the bÃ©chamel but everyone has there own way of preparing things. Not saying that it is bad...Just not what I am accustomed too. We split the swordfish kababs . It was too a bit acidic but the rice and salad kinda brought everything together. This place reminds me of the Astoria,Queens area. I will definatly swing back for the Pastitso and Avgolemno!!
(3)
Kunal C.

Greek comfort food at its best! If you love Greek food, this place is a must try. Some of my favorites are the avgolemeno soup, saganaki cheese and the baked lamb. The decor is a little outdated and the service is slow at times but that food is worth it.

I am so happy I found this place! The dressing on the greek salad is so delicious. The salad itself is fresh and the chicken has great texture (tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. My husband had the lamb gyro which was the best he said he has ever had. It seems like it gets busy a lot but well worth the wait. YUM!!! The only downside is the Guy Ferrari pictures on the wall. Just keep your eyes on the food.
(5)
Jose B.

The Gyros are really tasty and fresh. I tried other things like the mousaka which was good on the top but bland and tastless on the bottom meat and eggplant half. The marinated octopus was not impressive and overpriced for the portion. The deserts ate good though and the lamb souvlaki is a treat. Didnt think much of the pork souvlaki. I go there to eat a Gyro once in a while and I order it with extra tzaziki sauce that is where they excel that gyro is spot on try it the rest is all Greek to me or maybe not so much Capish?

Karmen C.

Definitely one of my favorite places to eat in the area! My go to order is usually the Corner's Special Gyro, but when I'm really hungry I order the Gyro Sandwich Plate. Their prices are very reasonable and I always have a pleasant experience here. My coworker usually orders the Sampler Plate and has great things to say about it, but I've yet to try it. I've also heard that the Falafel here isn't that good, so maybe stay away from that.

By far the best greek food in MA. Everything is good... The corner's special gyro is my favorite dish there.

Rae S.

I could eat here every day! Ok, maybe three or four times a week. Yes, the gyros and lemon soup are to die for as everyone else has observed, but I think the real star has been glossed over by other yelpers. The pita. Can I get an "amen"? I'm not talking about whatever that flat bread is they put on your table after you order (could be store bought pita), I'm talking about what they serve their delicious sandwiches in. Anyone who gives a d*mn about sandwiches knows the truth- a transcendent sandwich is made or broken by the bread it's served on, and this place gets it right, so right! Their pita is soft, fluffy, chewy, and the flavor is delicately divine! The perfect vessel for all their yummy meats and sauces. I always find a parking spot outside, and always drive away with a smile on my face. Check it out!

Greek Corner, why are you so freezing? All the time! Still, how can you not want to eat here when you see the decor--faux columns around the door, scenes of Greece painted on the walls...it's like taking a trip to the Mediterranean, minus the warm weather. The food is solid. The gyro plate is where it's at. They always have baklawa. Apparently, it's also an awkward second date spot. Fantastic people watching. [Girl, "no, no, it's my treat this time...oh...I forgot my wallet, oops!"] The staff is nice, and doesn't seem to judge when I inevitably always eat here 20 minutes before closing time. The portions are healthy. Craving satisfied.

Ken S.

The gods must be smiling on Greek Corner Restaurant, where the pita breads are soft and warm, the kabobs are juicy and tender, and the baklava are flaky and sweet.
(4)
Jim S.

The food was delicious. We had a starter plate for two which was a nice way to settle into the Greek experience. The chicken Gyro was tasty and moist and full of flavor. There was plenty of seating at lunch and it looked like they were doing a lot of take out business as well. Of course parking in Cambridge is Cambridge's fault when the snow is ever-present.

Update: 2 of the 3 people that ate delivery food from the greek corner are down with food poisoning. I blame it on the salad: maybe not well-washed?

What happened to the amazing Greek Corner I used to know?? Went here with a date Friday night and was so disappointed. Our feta and kalamata olive app was skimpy; the calamari bland and chewy. We ordered gyro and souvlaki entrees and both were super dry. At least the baklava was good, and the service friendly.

L F.

Greek Corner was recommended to me by a coworker whose father is from Greece. This place is super authentic and delicious! It might not be the fanciest spot in the neighborhood, but it's definitely worth the stop for a quick bite. Be sure to order their gyro! I'm a huge fan of their takeout. You can literally place an order at the counter that is ready to go in less than 10 minutes. I'm not sure why there are complaints about service. I have never had a bad service experience here. I have eaten at Greek Corner for lunch and dinner a bunch of times. Next time you find yourself in North Cambridge be sure to stop in here!

Our first time at this restaurant and definitely not going back. Unfortunately one of our take out had a worm in our salad (I have a video to prove it). Called & spoke with Maria. She apologized and said sometimes they're in the lettuce. First and last visit! Maria made it seem as if it's normal for the worm to be in the lettuce. No thank you! Disappointed and disgusted! The lamb souvlaki was not bad but I've had better Greek cuisine!

I like this place because it is very hard to find good lamp chops around here and this place does a pretty good job. Service is good compare to Mediterranean or middle eastern place. I do recommend since I'm a usual customer

Really great food. Busy, sometimes noisy, authentic. Reasonable prices & tasty. I love the gyros & the lamb shish kabobs are to die for. Never had a problem parking on Mass Ave, even though it is in Cambridge. This place is nowhere near my home in Salem, but I still make the trek 5 or 6 times a year...it's that good.

I've basically had everything here. It's really good and the most authentic Greek restaurant I've been to in the Boston area. Sometimes service can we spotty but the food glazes over any shortfalls it has. I highly recommend their Greek chicken salad and kebabs.

Everything was good, except the commercial radio in the dining room. Food is fresh, decent portions, presented on the plate in an appealing way, and very flavorful. Service is prompt and courteous. Decor is really quite charming, artwork and murals on the walls. It would have been four stars; they lose one star because they played Magic 106.7 over the stereo: I really, really hate hearing commercials while I'm eating. The owners should get satellite radio or an iPod so we don't have to be YELLED AT BY RADIO ANNOUNCERS while we're trying to eat.

Bomb.com (don't click that) Gyro and Lamb plate are great. Don't expect the best service in the world but it's not bad either. All very nice, seems like they get a little stressed when busy.

This place is great and reasonably priced. The reviews about the service are on point. You don't come here for the great service, but hey, they aren't trying to sell themselves as high end. Try the lamb kebabs, they really hit the spot. Wonderfully spiced and delicious!

I was ssssoooo close to making this only 3 stars but finally decided on the 4 because the food and atmosphere more than makes up for it. The decor is gorgeous and welcoming, I loved the Greek murals along the dining room wall. We were there on a weeknight and practically every table was filled, always a great sign that we came to the right place. I stared at a wall of wine in my seat all night, another nice touch. But my goodness, the service here was terribad. Waitresses should not be magicians and disappear at the drop of a hat. Ours played the David Copperfield role all night and did just that. Drink is empty? Too bad, you won't have it refilled for at least 10 - 15 minutes. Want your bill? Oooopppsss, you'll be waiting on that too. The moussaka and gyros may be the only thing I ever order here, if I do decide to return and have a sit down meal. In fact, the moussaka may have been the best I've ever had, I have another craving for it just thinking about it. The gyro lamb meat was perfectly seasoned and they got my order right when I didn't want a few certain veggies in it. The only small issue with it is that the pita didn't taste 100% fresh, I guess they don't make their own which is a letdown. Can you please get your act together and fix the service problem? I love your trofi but hate your servitÃ³ra. I can laugh about how long everything took after the fact but at the time I was pretty peeved.

I went here for an authentic greek gyro but the gyro was not even close to a greek gyro. So yeah I was disappointed and will not go back. The location was nice but no parking. I guess that is it for me and this place.

I've been frequenting this place since high school! Then it started because the prices were reasonable for a massive quantity of food. I continued going for those reasons and for the fact that everything on the menu is amazing! The pastitsio is my favorite guilty pleasure food and I could eat their Greek salad and stuffed grape leaves every day for the rest of my life! If you're thinking about coming here, just go ahead and do it. You won't regret it!!

Ive grown up going here. It deserves to be in the deliciousness hall of fame. Great servers. Eat this: Egg lemon soup, white bean soup, lentil soup. Horitaki salad, tzatziki, octopus, fried calamari Baked lamb, moussaka, gyro. Rice pudding. Hiella.

After all the hype and watching this place on Diners Drive Ins and Dives... I finaly tried it...and in my opinion it was just that - hype. Now on Foodler, I placed a deliver order (perhaps the problem?). $6 delivery fee is redic. Prices: Gyro plate with a side of spinach pie. Prices were a bit steep. $5.50 for a 4 inch triangle of pie. $11.95 for a gyro plate which included a ton of rice and a large salad. Food: The gyro itself was covered in sauce (too much for my liking), had specks of lettuce, plenty of red onion, a single tomato slice, and semi dry meat (maybe it sat with the delivery guy too long?). The meat was seasoned well, although I could hardly taste it under the globs of sauce. The rice was not like any pilaf I've tasted. More of a tomato flavor. The salad had a nice lemony dressing and a chunk of feta. The leaves were wilted bc of the dressing so dressing on the side (for delivery) is recommened. Sad to be disappointed. It was by no means "bad", but I was expecting more given all the 5 star reviews. I would recommend going to the restaurant instead of delivery.

Good place - good portions - had lamb shish kabab and the hubs had corner special gyro - both were delish ! For coffee lovers - try the Greek coffee - but don't if you planning to take nap after the meal :)

The gyro is better than most other Greek places in the area and the tzatziki is amazing. Strangely though, the Greek dressing is nearly flavorless. Pro tip: as for extra tzatziki and use it as salad dressing.

Food outstanding .... Service slow... Price good... Coffee ... Oh the coffee... Taking the flan home so we'll see

The pita that the gyro is made with is flaky/buttery on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The yogurt sauce is amazing and the house lemon/chicken/rice soup is delicious and perfect on a chilly day!

Going to have to agree with all the good reviews and say that Greek Corner Restaurant is great! Came here with some friends early Saturday evening, and the place was already packed! We snagged one of the last free tables. Started with the sampler plate - it's a great way to try a little bit of everything! They say it's for 2, but we easily shared it between 4 people. The TARAMOSALATA - red caviar blended with bread and spices, didn't sound too great, but ended up being AMAZING. I need a tub of this right now. The gyros were packed with yummy meat and delicious. I couldn't finish mine and am eating the leftovers as I type. Mmmm gyro-smelling hands. =P The service was a bit slow and spotty, but that's ok because it was super packed and our waitress was really nice when she did stop by. Just be prepared to chill for a bit if you're coming during peak hours. There were about 15 people waiting for tables at 8pm. There was a little snafu with the check - they charged us for an extra app. We pointed it out on the way out and they were super cool about it and promptly refunded us. We'll be back! Perhaps for takeout instead of dining in. :)

Love love love this place ! The wall art with Santorini's beautiful landscape..the table mats with the country's and the islands map and ofcourse the sumptuous food..makes this the best spot for Greek food. Wondering about the prices?- they are friendly to your pockets too ! The best way to try few things together is to order the Sampler Plate - Taramosalata, hummus and eggplant salad are definitely my favs. Their fried eggplant is to die for. Wrap them in the Pita with some tzatziki..So good ! Having tried Greek food back in Greece; their gyros are as authentic as they can get. The meat is so flavorful and well done..a bite into the Gyro, you can taste the warm Pita..so fresh..slightly crispy..followed by the meat (ground beef and lamb is the best) and ending with the tzatziki sauce-home made, always fresh and creamy...Mmmmm my taste-buds are salivating already !! However, on the service front they can do a lot better. I categorize this place as a restaurant I go to because the food is fantastic but service is pathetic. Every time you need something, it takes 10-15 minutes to get a server's attention. Very rarely do they stop by themselves, since they are always so busy chatting with each other. Oh well..as long as I get those Gyros, I really don't care about anything else. The gyros make my soul so happy and satisfied that nothing in the world matters anymore. PS: They offer free pita bread at the beginning of the meal. Pay a dollar or so extra, but get the warm (grilled) Pita's..so so good that you will never eat those cold pitas again!

I LOVE THIS PLACE. As an authentic greek girl as well as an all around food lover I can totally vouch for the Greek Corner. I recommend a regular or chicken gyro sandwich, the pastisio, the fried calamari, the moussaka, or the avgolemono soup, just to name my favorites. I live a few blocks from here and I go with my family once or twice a week on average. The waitstaff is extremely nice and friendly, but sometimes a little slow, but that is exactly what service is like in Greece, so get over it Americans! This is probably my favorite restaurant in the neighborhood and I can't say enough great things about it!!!

Greek food is just one of those cuisines that my boyfriend and I just go gaga over. We had talked about coming here for way to long, and finally just made a date of it last Friday night. I studied abroad in Athens, so anything that KIND OF touches the incredible food I ate in Greece is something I am VERY interested in. As you find at most Greek places, the foods reasonably priced. My biggest issue is trying not to order everything on the menu. For two, we ate a good sized meal. Started with the avgolemono - a lemony chicken and rice soup that I would swim in if I could. They nailed that. Then we got the horiatiki salad (a true greek salad: tomatoes, green peppers, onions, cucumbers, olvies, oregano and feta) - it was good, but I've had better. The falafel was actually very dry. It was fine when I smothered it in tsatziki, but honestly what isn't? The sampler plate I'd highly recommend if you're like me and want to eat everything on the menu - you get a couple scoops of their popular starters (grape leaves, tsatziki, taramosalata, spinach pie, hommus, tabouleh, feta, eggplant salad and olives). I'd say it's better for two than four because you get two of everything and it comes on a plate smaller than your average dinner plate, so order another one if you have four people. Last but not least, we wanted lamb. Greeks (and really any Mediterranean kitchen) are pretty consistent with making mouth-watering lamb. So we order the Souvlaki and eat a couple bites and think "hmmm this seems really over cooked" and then we start to look at it more closely and notice its white-ish color. Our "lamb" was definitely PORK. We were kind of bummed out, so we asked another waitress if it could be pork by any chance. She played Switzerland and said she'd check with our server and the kitchen. (No lady, look at my food) Our server comes over and assures us she put lamb on the ticket - which we weren't arguing, we just thought maybe someone gave us the wrong plate. It was really weird that no one actually inspected our food or thought to bring it to the kitchen, so we just sadly moped out leaving our less than half eaten pork souvlaki to go to waste. On the other hand the baklava was pretty good, and it looked like they had some decent lunch options under $10.

This little restaurant is where I fell in love with the Gyro, the chicken, the warm pita, and that addicting yogurt cucumber sauce. Every other gyro in the city pales in comparison. I never thought I'd appreciate a good grape leaf, the assumption of the texture and taste was off putting. Assuming makes an ass out of me and only me, they are yummy, by far my favorite appetizers. Lentil soup is warmth and love in a bowl. Lastly, staff is kind and quick to please, so happy to give them my business.

Only been there twice, first time was bad, second time was awesome. 1st time: Lamb Shish Kebab -- Oops! Wrong food. The lamb was too dried to me, not even close to "delicious" as they wrote on the description. 2nd time: Moussaka -- Oops! Right food. Great taste, thought a little bit too greedy.

Angband A.

I live in the neighborhood and really want to like this place, but I've been here twice and I'm not sure there will be a third. The good: It's a cozy space, and take-out is easy and efficient. The bad: The food. The first time, the gyro plate was so salty I could barely eat it. The second time, I got a gyro wrap (house sandwich) to go. The poor vegetables were completely SMOTHERED in a garlicky yoghurt sauce, and the pita was so greasy that the paper covering it was soaked through with oil. The lamb was greasy and salty. The whole thing was just assembled very carelessly. Sigh. I feel like instead of making an effort to put out thoughtfully prepared food, this restaurant just dumps on salt/sauce/oil, and hopes for the best. I am so disappointed!

LOVE the Greek Corner. It's a fun, busy atmosphere with great tasting food, good portions and reasonable prices. I enjoy the brisk and friendly service--it always makes me think of an Greek grandmother's kitchen who loves you but tells you to move your butt so that she can stir the soup. (I'm not sure even I know what that means--but maybe you do. And, full disclosure, I don't know any Greek grandmothers!) My only wish is that it had full booths. But, one can't have everything! A definite favorite for all the Greek foods you would want!

Been going to Greek Corner for about a year now - it's a bit far to travel for me and the parking can be problematic but the food is the best Greek I've found so far so it's worth the hassle. Granted, it's Americanized Greek, but it's always good, it's fresh, the portions are huge and the prices are reasonable. Ate there a few weeks ago - had the gyros platter and fries, my friend had the same with the homemade chicken soup which was excellent. The service can leave a lot to be desired - it's a little less than it should be, not always attentive but never too difficult to flag them down if you need something. They do big business on takeout. It's not a fancy place by any stretch of the imagination but it's clean and the food makes up for the shabby interior. Wish it was a little closer to my home so I could visit more often. But I'm happy tp go there when I can.

I'm Greek, and was raised with Yiayia's home cookin' from Athens. So I was there to be WOWED. I'll be straightforward with this one. The apps. Don't bother with the Saganaki - small portion and not worth it. Fried zuchini was great but you have to order it with tzatziki to dip. Tzatziki was pretty good. Lentil soup was great as was the Avgolemono. Their speciality GYRO. Fantastic. Get one. They skimped on the szatiki, but I had some leftover from the apps, so I was ok. I felt a bit cheated when I got the check though. I swear I saw fries,salad,or soup with your gyro - but I was charged extra for my soup. I asked the waitress, and she said it was extra, and I didn't feel like challenging it any further. My husband had the pastitsio and he said I made better - there was very little meat in it, and it was very dry - like it was an old piece. So, there you have it. The Greek Corner has some amazing authentic Greek food, some not so great, mediocre borderline miserable waitstaff (but she also was an authentic Greek!). It is definitely worth giving it a try!!

I agree strongly with the 'its freezing' comment. I kept my down jacket on the whole time. Other than that the food is well above average and it is cheap. I had the falafel to start and a lamb special souvlaki. I'll definitely be back.

Nicely marinated meats, light and fluffy pita, non-greasy gyros, and overall very tasty greek food.

Del P.

I see plenty of positive reviews for their 'corner gyro', I have to say that these people never had a real& good gyro sandwich. The meat is not actually from a gyro; big, round, spins and chills in front of a fire, oh no, not even close. It's strips of mystery meat bought in a container and cooked on a griddle before being served.. It tastes ok with bread lettuce tomato onion and tazitki sauce( what wouldn't?Â¿) but its not what I'd want to put into my body. Yes the sandwich is under $7 but it still is a disgrace to the name gyro. That's the only thing I tried as a take-out, I hope the appetizers/ salads are better but I doubt I'll be back to try.

5 stars on the food. 1 star on the service. This was my first time dining at Greek Corner. I was impressed by the food. Great, savory flavor. I might come back only for take out. I can't give my recommendation for their service. We were seated and reviewed the menu. All looked great. I had to try the moussaka, since I haven't had it in some time. Took a few minutes to decide, but I made a firm decision. On this hot 90 degree day, I was hoping that our server would come around, but we waited at least 5 minutes before being greeted. She swoops in and asks, "do you know what you want?" Very punctual. Got our orders in... waited a bit... Haven't seen our server for a little while. Finally our hummus plate arrived. Delicious. Waited some more... our glasses were empty, haven't seen our server for a while... Waited some more. Our dinner came, finally. Server noticed our glasses were empty. Asked, "Want a little more water?"... Nodded for acknowledgement. Hadn't seen our server in some time... Waited some more, asked for someone else to top off for water. I was getting frustrated. Thirsty on a hot day. Makes sense? 15 minutes went by, and we found our server holding a filthy bucket and took another table's check. 5 minutes later, she asks, "all set?" I wanted to wrap up to go. 5 minutes later, she appears with a Styrofoam box, and I wrapped it up myself. I decided to pay the bill at the counter to expedite the process. I just wanted out of there. Just before leaving, I asked for a bag. Lady held up her index finger and said, "one minute" and scooted her way past me. So, there's no warm and intimate service if that's what you're looking for. No knock on the food. Just call ahead and get it to go. Do not sit down.

Love Love LOVE this place!!! Get the greek salad with chicken and a side of tsadziki. Very kitch, but warm family-run vibe to the place. Nice servers. Lots of families so it's boisterous...if you're looking for quiet date spot, this ain't it. BUT...for something proximate to a home-cooked, healthy meal, you can't go wrong. Also the lemon soup is great.

During my time in Boston my host recommended this place around the corner literally from where I was staying. So we walked over and checked out what all the hoopla was about. Fortunately for the name of the place it was located on a corner. Definitely a plus on their part. So apparently this is a well-known place that made the food network/travel channel. The line out the door was proof; though it was not a long wait we did observe that this is a family run business. And only the family, three of them were running it. Cook, servers, and busers. I will admit the longest wait was to get a table, the three of them we all moving fast. There was no delay in getting food ordered and on our table. We ordered many different items to have our own little tasting while here. And as usual I tired to eat it all. The food was fantastic! So many different flavors to choose from definitely something for everyone's taste. I would recommend a trip out to Cambridge. You can get here by train, though I do not remember which line it was to get out there. Enjoy!

The first stop on Valentine's day was the tattoo parlor across the street from this restaurant. Sandra did a stellar job putting a 1920's labor movement image on my arm, but after a while under the needle I needed some food. So we went to Greek Corner around 5:30 and it was great. The food was fantastic. First, a heaping sampler plate of hummus, baba ganoush, spanikopita, and a couple other things. All of it fresh and delicious, I especially enjoyed the tangy hummus. Then we shared a gyro plate, and this thing was fairly incredible: tons of delicious spicy tender meat and a mountain of just out of the fryer fries. The waitress was like, "its Valentine's day, you're making her pay?" and I muttered something and she said "I always work on Valentine's day. That's what 18 years of marriage does." Take it from me, folks: more ink, more Greek food, less marriage.

I live down the street from Greek corner and go here all the time! Greek corner has a great assortment of very authentic Greek food. Definitely check out the saganaki, gyros, and anything lamb. I'm personally not a fan of dolmathakia, but friends of mine who are said that they were wonderful. That said, make sure you go here when you have a bunch of time on your hands, because they can be a little slow to take your order and a little slow to bring the bill. However, the time between ordering your food and receiving it is relatively short. Great family-run feel here, if you love Greek food check it out!

Ok so this place I Really wanted to be great I would have settled for good cuz I was so hungry. I made the drive to Somerville and wish I made the drive to Steve's in Back Bay instead. Yes even thinking about parking too. The place was empty 2 other Parties of 2 were in the place. The guy at door says seat your self I guess he never told us that we needed to get out own menus too. So were waiting to get them and then he comes over 5 mins later and says "what you we want." I and say ymmm menus please. He gives us them with a look like I have 4 heads. We order the food I ask for hot sauce we get Asian style hot sauce ODD Very ODD. The food potions were WAY too small. My husband gets a roasted lamb sandwich he wanted a plate of lamb but we can't fight about semantics. The sandwich had 3/4 pieces of lamb. The tomato was cut in a way for him to get the ends He hate this so much!!!! My husband tells the guy about the small potions of lamb and he says oh you got 4 pieces you were giving to much!!!!!!!! WHAT!!!!! It's so sad.

I had friends over and we decided to get some take-out that wasn't pizza - how refreshing! This place has excellent food and it's nice to switch it up from the pizza/Chinese/Thai food conundrum. I got Greek Salad which was perfect and the marinated octopus, tsatsiki and pita - all were super tasty and filling but lighter than your average take-out fare. Cheap and delicious, highly recommended.

One of my favorites for affordable and traditional Greek food. Great hummus and my favorite spanakopita around. The lines can be long on weekends and there is little interior room to wait so winters are tough. Parking is also limited.

Being Greek I often miss having authentic greek food around. I discovered Greek corner a few months back and I have already been there a couple of times. I have tried souvlaki, saganaki, fried squash and Greek salad. It was pretty decent and authentic for Americanized Greek food. Definitely one of my top greek restaurants in Boston.
(4)
Tulan K.

The food was ok. The sampler plate was nice as well as the lentil soup. The schwarma dish was nice . The same exact kind of beef/lamb schwarma as Cafe jaffa in boston. Leads me to believe both uses ready schwarma rolls and just shaves it and gives it to customer. Not what I saw in the diner drive-in and dives episode where they made fresh one.

It says they're open til 10pm. Showed up at 9:30 and the unwelcome host told us "they just turned the grill off". Bull. If your restaurant closes at 10 why the heck is your grill off at 9:30pm. Restaurant was FULL of people. P.S. I have worked as a waitress at 5 different restaurants and you are NEVER allowed to turn customers away with these bull excuses. You seat and serve up until the moment the door closes and at some of the better restaurants I've worked at you serve even beyond closing time. Terrible, unwelcome host (hipster dude with glasses and a beard). Will never go back.

I used to love this place for quick, convenient Greek food, but after my most recent visit I have to say the quality has diminished. The feta was odd but otherwise everything tasted fine.. However, I had heartburn and felt awful for the rest of the day. My husband and Yiayia were happy with their meals, but were both very burpy for hours after. On the bright side, the service was solid.

Boston is a tough place for greek food, and I know. I'm from Queens. I came here on a Friday night and it was quite busy. They must have been in a rush because my Moussaka was a bit cold on one side. The waitress was running around so feverishly that I just ate it. Then it took about 20 minutes to pay our check. Not bad, but not great. A pretty good deal though.

I go here a lot with my co-worker and it is our favorite lunch spot. The appetizer sampler platter is great - it comes with all your favorite greek snacks and every time we get it we finish it. Their gyros are really good and their fries are surprisingly awesome for any kind of restaurant. I definitely recommend this place, I've never been disappointed!

Anastasia R.

I have been missing out on this little treasure for like 12 years. I usually take a pass on Greek restaurants because the ones I've been too over season their salads and overcook their meat, then expect you to forgive them because they can make baklava. Like it's hard to make phyllo dough, honey, and nuts taste good. Having had 2 Greek roommates in my life, I had the good stuff and I don't tolerate mediocrity. At the Greek corner, they do everything right. The pork souvlaki is a juicy delight, as is the sample platter which has spinach pie, grape leaves, hummus and other treats. And of course the baklava is fantastic (not that that's a challenge, but they still get credit for finishing strong).
(5)
Althea D.

This is the best Greek food I've ever had in a restaurant. The chicken kebab is amazing, the pastitso is amazing (it's not tomato-ey as the menu suggests), and the house salad dressing is so good I could drink it out of a cup. The restaurant is very casual and the prices are reasonable. I wish I lived closer as I'd go far more often.

Marissa C.

Serving size here is HUGE. Huuuuuuuge. I ordered a Gyro Plate, which is a large plate filled half with a large green salad with vinaigrette and half with a lot of french fries. On top of the salad and french fries was over 6 oz. of gyro meat - more than I could ever eat in one sitting. I also substituted "greek fries" (skin still on, lots of seasoning, finely sprinkled cheese) for the regular, which made my plate even more visually interesting. The plate came with a cup of lentil soup, a very large chunk of feta, a juicy tomato wedge, and 5-6 slices of pita bread. The lentil soup was delicious and lemony. Also ordered were a large spinach pie (a triangle with a 6"+ base) and a sizable greek salad full of feta and olives (but maybe a little too much dressing for me - I'd ask for it on the side next time). It was a little difficult to get past the front door due to the line of people waiting at the take-out counter (the sign of a good product!), but the service during lunchtime was friendly and accommodating. Next time I'll try the souvlaki!

Just an all around neighborhood restaurant. Chicken seemed like it was good quality and the food (chicken kabob platter the first time, and gyro second time) was pretty good. though their salad is a huge dissappoint. good feta but weak on the seasoning/dressing. pita on the gyro wasn't fresh. but great overall value. They also take credit cards with no minimums, which is great.

Have been ordering here for probably the past 10 years and always get the lamb slovaki plate. Lamb is always tender. Its not a fancy place but usually hits it right.

The food at Greek Corner is ok. The spanakopita was tasty. The gyro plate was nice (though I wished it had come with some pita). The moussaka was slightly under-seasoned, but all in all decent. The service, while friendly was practically nonexistent. Once seated, we waited fifteen minutes before anyone even came over and acknowledged our presence. Once we ordered, the food arrived promptly, but no one came to follow up. How was the meal? Was there anything we needed? (Yes, I want some pita, pls.) Nada. Once the meal was history, no one came to clear our plates and after almost a half hour or waiting, we had to flag someone down to get the check. I guess I would go back for take-out, but I don't think I'll be back to sit down.

I love Greek Corner! Today we drove 45 minutes to get there... Yes, it is that great. We were 6 people and a baby. We called to make a booking but was told no reservations are taken over weekends. My husband asked if high chairs were available. The person he spoke with said yes, and asked what time we would be there for lunch. Ronald said we will be 6 people and we will be there at 12:30pm. On arrival we were greeted by an arrogant young man. My voice is gone due to a cold and he told me to speak up when I told them we were the 6 people who had called earlier. He said they don't take reservations and do not have a high chair for us because they have a reservation for 10 people" and they booked 6 high chairs. No high chair was thus available to us. My husband reminded him that we had called and enquired, he replied that they do have chairs, just not available to us... I lost my appetite and my patience with this little boy. We left and went elsewhere. I did return after lunch to discuss my disappointment with the way he had treated us. He told me "goodbye" and "sorry to hear" while the other male waiter laughed at me. The kitchen staff also overheard this conversation. They are amazing and always prepare THE best food! Young man, you ruined my lunch and missed out on serving 4 new customers! You are in the service industry and I would suggest you think before you speak. You are rude! Your establishment deserves employees with improved judgement.

I was able to eat inside while my grandmother was visiting, and we had a lovely meal. The gyro was yummy! I am not a fan of the baklava... it was a very small piece and didn't seem fresh. I will probably still be back for the gyro though.

I've been meaning to try this place for a while, I finally did, and it's now one of my Boston favorites. The vegetarian plate is a real deal ...so much food, so much variety and absolutely delicious. The Galaktoboureko (Dessert) is mouthwateringly delicious with a greek coffee. I can't wait to go back.

One of our top places to bring out of town guests. The food is always GREAT. Food is 5 stars no question. Service has been very hit or miss in the past. Our last couple visits have been very pleasant, however we've had a couple where the service would warrant a lower rating. Hopefully the service trend continues. Value is incredible, most appetizers are 5$-10$. Entrees/Sandwiches range from 7-20$. Portions are large and sandwiches are enough for dinner with an app. Favorite Apps (come with plenty of pita bread): -Falafel (2 huge falafel's (probably the best tasting in the area) with hummus, pita bread, and tabbouleh, $5.95) -Eggplant Spread (creamy eggplant spread, great taste, ~$5.95) Sandwiches: -Gyro (ground lamb and beef, lettuce, tomatoes, onion, and tzatziki sauce in pita) -Corner's Special Souvlaki (better than the gyro IMO, try it! chunks of marinated lamb, tender and delicious. only difference from the gyro is the meat cut) The best part of these sandwiches are the pita bread (fresh, hot and fluffy), and the tzatziki sauce (amazing). Sandwiches are around 7.50$ each. Entrees: Chicken Kebabs - seem to be grilled over characoal and marinated in something delicious. You haven't had many or any chicken dishes this good and this cheap before. Comes with rice and salad for around 12$ Tips : Parking is street but not bad since it's North Cambridge. There can be a decent wait primetime fridays/saturdays (never more than 30mins). Come and enjoy! If you were our friends we would bring you here (that's saying a lot).

Came here after good reviews of their Greek goodness and was not disappointed. Their hummus was yummy, pita bread soft, and their gyro plate plentiful. The "Greek fries" were a treat with the bonus olive oil and parmesan cheese sprinkled on them. The real winner was dessert. I know another Yelper on here mentioned that you can't mess up phyllo dough, honey and nuts, BUT, you CAN make it absolutely scrumptuous and they DO. My date and I both agreed that this was by far the best baklava we have had. Why? Because unlike others that are quite dense and heavy, their baklava was light, airy, and (of course) absolutely delicious. We split one serving (think small pie slice) but I would recommend getting your own--it's that good. The cinnamon sprinkled on top was just the right amount too. Scraped the plate, we did (mmhmmm insert Yoda voice here for absolutely no reason). :)

I love gyros and am always searching for the best in the area. I dragged Husby here on a Sunday afternoon right before the Pats game so it was fairly empty. We started off with the spanakopita, which was flaky but a bit dry with too much dill - still tasty. I got the combo with avgolemono, which was tart enough and still creamy. However, the star of the meal was the gyros. I got the ground beef and lamb so it had that hearty meatiness that I love so much. Lots of fresh veggies and garlicky tzatziki complemented the meat wonderfully. Our server was pleasant and there was a good pace on the dishes as they came out. No complaints here. I am looking forward to coming back!

I'm a fiend for a good greek salad. Since moving to Somerville, I hadn't found one that fit the bill. Finally, I did a Yelp search in order to hunt one down. I finally went here and voila - I was satiated. The menu is classic, the food yummy and it has a nice family, neighborhood, unpretentious feel. It's become a favorite haunt.

Eliza F.

Went with a friend who's visited family in Greece multiple times.... She approved! I've been there twice. Both times I enjoyed the food. Most recently, on a Sunday evening, I had the lamb kabobs. Tender meat cooked well, medium, well- still very juicy. Plates are large - I could have split the lamb kabobs. The pita bread was divine and the hummus was legit. The staff there has been friendly and professional both times. They clearly take pride in their Greek heritage, Greek food, and customer service. If you want to get in and out quickly, order it to go, and come pick it up though. This is definitely a "sit, enjoy, and actually talk to your friends or date"-type of place. It's the kind of unpretentious place that makes me feel right at home. They also have a type of wine that my friend says her grandparents literally add to everything back in Greece (soda, seltzer, etc.) and drink straight. We were on our way to yoga, otherwise we would have ordered wine too. ...Next time!

bottom line: good food, prices, and service I ordered the Corner's Special Gyro with fries for ($9.50) and a lemonade ($1.50). The gyro was delicious and the fries were better than average. The lemonade was homemade and it came with a refill. The waiter was helpful and friendly. I've got no complaints about the Greek Corner and I'm definitely going to come back.

I live walking distance from this place and have been here multiple times, mostly for takeout but once or twice for sit in. Service is usually okay give or take (as in not stellar but not terrible) but I appreciate the consistency and it's not like I come to a restaurant like this and expect to be wowed by the waitstaff, yanno? But...the food is SOLID! I usually go for the gyro, as it is their special. However, I think all of their dishes with lamb are good, which is saying a lot because I don't really like lamb that much. But it seems the most flavorful out of the meats I've tried here. I also like their yogurt sauce. Once, I came here with a friend from Cyprus (it's an island off the coast of Greece/Turkey) and she told me that the food here was authentic enough to remind her of home. Not that I really care about the authenticity as long as the food is good, but props to Greek Corner! One suggestion for improvement: they could work on their fries though. They are soggy and were served lukewarm even when I ate in. Eh, skip.

Who woulda thought that I'd find the BEST GYROS EVER at a small little shop in cambridge? Jenny S. and I ordered the sampler plate ( yelp.com/biz_photos/u0Cvâ€¦ ), which was made for exactly 2 people (had 2 of everything). Came with a garlic-y yogurt sauce, hummus, dry feta, some type of greek caviar (i think it was "taramosalata?", stuffed grape leaves (just whatever), olives, cucumbers, tomatoes, soggy spanikopita, and pita bread. It wasn't too bad, but I think if you're gonna something, ORDER THE GYRO (which I shall explain next) EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT ABOUT IT ( yelp.com/biz_photos/u0Cvâ€¦ ): Filling was perfectly balanced with the carbiness and slight oiliness of the grilled, thick pita bread. MEAT was SEARED and flavored to perfection. Vegetables added a nice crisp freshness to it and oh mahh gawwddd. I WANT ONE NOW. ..Can't you tell that the gyro's as good as sex for me? No but really, overall, come here for the gyro.. I've had a lot of gyros in my life BUT greek corner definitely takes the cake!

Terrific! I've been going for years and it is always great. My wife got the lamb shish kabob plate w rice and salad and it was perfect. Tender and flavorful. I got the chicken kabob plate also w rice and salad and it was perfect. This is the best meal for the money. And our server was delightful. We were w our 6 yr old daughter and she was super friendly and accommodating.

My go-to place for a consistently delicious grilled chicken dinner. Generous portions, with large pieces of white meat chicken, rice and salad. I have had a few other dinners there as well, all good. Very reasonably priced, and always consistent. Better for take-out than sit-down I've found.

This is a pretty neat place. Total neighborhood joint in North Cambridge, a healthy walk north from Porter Square. The food was nicely prepared and very tasty, and the service was warm and neighborly. Although not necessarily close to anything real interesting, its a great gem and worth the trek to dine here...

I went here for the first time last week with a friend who I traveled Cyprus and Greece with. We wanted a taste of some authentic, delicious Greek cuisine and that's what we got! I ordered the chicken gyro lunch special and it was perfect. The tzatziki was delicious. Service was okay, but overall happy with my meal. Thanks so much!

Crazy busy on a Saturday night. Not so busy that we left though. Business is brisk with tables turning over often. The staff is efficient and on top of things - not super personable but I wouldn't be either working in a packed to the gills restaurant. The food is very good - the falafel is delicious and the pork souvlaki is awesome. Fresh, very flavorful, and good portions.

Aimee M.

Just went here tonight... so here first are all the negatives: There was a fruit fly and a fly flying about Two different waitress came to take our order They brought my partner lamb when she ordered chicken and she ordered rice and they brought her fries My fries were slightly undercooked The pita served with the hummus were not the best, they should have served hot flat bread that they use for the gyro Could have done without the sad salad that came with my platter Parking on a Friday night at 7 was really hard OK now that that is all out of the way my gyro rocked! The hummus was good also, minus the pita served with it. I took some baklava home with me that was also good. Portions were good but I could have used one more slice of meat in my gyro. Yes, I will be coming here again but most likely will get take out which had an equally long line as the line for tables but I would rather eat this food at home.

Perhaps we just came on a bad day, but I don't see how the Greek Corner gets so many 4's and 5's. Things were somewhat confused when we came in the door. People were milling about, and no one came to seat us for almost 10 minutes, despite many open tables. When we were seated, three different servers came to take our order. The A/C was out of order (?), and it was quite hot inside. We shared an appetizer plate. The plate was average size, with lots of varieties of appetizers, but I found the flavors rather muted. The tzatziki, for instance, did not have enough garlic compared to what I am used to. The spanikopita was tasty but quite soggy. The feta and olives were good. The entrees were a mixed bag. My beef brochette was way overcooked even had I wanted it well done (and they didn't ask how I wanted it), quite chewy (even for my tastes, and I like meat with a lot of texture), and way under marinated. My wife's vegetarian platter was to her liking, except for the falafel, which was overcooked and gritty. Parking is OK, since the location is far enough from Porter Square. Prices are reasonable, and service is good. It's hard to find good Greek food in Boston. If you're nearby, the value is OK, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here.

Krystal C.

Service: 3/5 (i'll give 4/5 to my waitress. She was very nice. But when my cousin and I went in the restaurant, no one say anything to us and we were stood at the in front of the counter and waited for a few minutes even there were few ladies stood behind the counter.) Lamp chop: 4/5 Fried Calamari: 3/5 Grilled Sausage: 4/5
(4)
David H.

The food is as close to authentic Greek cuisine as you'll get in Boston, and having family over there, I've been to Greece more times than I can count. The service, however, is hit or miss. The last three times I've been, we've had to wait a very long time to be waited on. We sat at our table for more than five minutes before being asked if we wanted a drink. The food comes out fast once you order, but it's getting to the ordering part that takes forever. Plus, once you're waiting for the bill, the staff disappears, and again once you wait to pay them. I keep putting up with it because the food is good, and there aren't many authentic Greek restaurants in the neighborhood, but my patience is wearing thin.

Hair D.

Great tasting Greek food at the best prices! This is much better than Steve's Greek on Newbury St in Boston. Favorite menu items are gyro wraps, AVGOLEMONO, MOUSSAKA, PASTITSO along with the best fried calamari and Greek salad. Any of the appetizers are great! But make sure you order GALAKTOBOUREKO for desert, its awesome! Its a small place and usually gets very busy most nights. Get there early or try going for a late lunch/early dinner. Metered parking on Mass Ave as well as bus service to Arlington Heights and Harvard Sq.

Came here for dinner over the weekend and the place was packed. This is a no frills Greek Restaurant tucked away on a corner of Mass Ave. The sign isn't that flashy, so you would miss the restaurant unless you were looking for it. There's no waiting list or reservations, you just show up and wait in line. The Gyro meat is great, as are their french fries, which appeared to me to be fresh cut, not prepared from frozen storebought fries like most restaurants. Get the flaming cheese app, it tastes meaty and delicious. Only criticism is that I wish that they heated up the pita before bringing it out, but otherwise, the food is great and very reasonably priced.

S Z.

Pretty decent Greek. A bit too much sauce on the gyro, but the bread was soft and fresh. The meat was flavorful too. I think the best part was the price- only 6.50 for a gyro? Yes please!

The decor of the place looks like it could need an update but hey, we didn't come here for the decor, we came here for the food. =) I thought the place I went to in San Jose, CA had the best gyro I've ever had but I think they've been beaten by the ones I had here. Delish!! Would definitely come back again.

Staff seemed a little distracted and looked like they were having a lot of fun with eachother, but I can forgive that since the food and atmosphere was so great. I will definetly be returning! Love the change of pace from burgers and fries or italian. The two of us split an appetizer plate and it was more than enough food, and was fresh and tasty. New favorite!

I like this place! The first thing I noticed as I sat down was a huge picture of Guy Fieri with his autograph. He was apparently here for his show Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives, a show I love. The food is great, the menu is huge, the prices are cheap, the service is decent, the interior is spacious, and the location is easy to find. It got crowded as my friend and I left, so it must be a local hit. I had the Corner Special Gyro which had beef & lamb w/seasonings. I liked it, and the pita bread is warm and super soft. Yum!

Birds chirping... The sun shining through my blinds, a warm breeze making its way through my bedroom window... and... now... imagine the opposite. The weather was terrible outside. Cold rain, mist, and darkness. There was no way I was going out in that kind of weather so what better occasion to get something delivered. My browser launched, I made my way over to Foodler.com and glanced at some of the various types of food I could get. Just instants later, I had picked: Greek Corner Restaurant it shall be. I had never been there although I've driven by it many times. I decided to go for the corner's special souvlaki; in this place, I went for lamb but you can get it with pork instead. It's marinated in herbs and spices and then grilled on charcoal. It is served inside of a pita bread with some tomatoes, lettuce, parsley, onions and some wonderful cucumber yogurt sauce. The sandwich was great. I also went for some spanakopita (spinach pie) and was looking forward to eating it. It's essentially layers of filo dough with some cheese and spinach. The only snag I hit was the fact that there was also a ton of dill in there. I don't like dill. Not one bit. I still ate some of it but I wasn't too thrilled by it. If one liked dill, I'm pretty sure that it would have been good though. Although it was delivered, the meal was quite enjoyable and the prices were pretty good as well. I look forward to returning there and experience it from inside the place next time.

I had high hopes for this place due to fellow Yelpers' reviews as well as a friend's recommendation. I wanted to love it. And maybe I will some other time, but... Went to Greek Corner on a Friday night. It wasn't too busy as it was past 9pm. Had a taramosalata appetizer and was very happy with it. It was delicious. Then came a gyro sandwich plate with salad and fries. The meat was well marinated, but the tsatziki sauce as well as the salad dressing were so garlicky and my stomach can't take too much garlic. I even felt it in my mouth when I woke up 12 hours after having dinner. Next time I go there I'll try the lamb shank as it looked so delicious. The service was ok, nothing special. We ordered and she brought our food to the table. No cartwheels or anything of that sort. I'm sure, I'll be back and will make sure to ask for garlic-free food.

Ladyjane S.

Don't listen to the naysayers who've been here ONCE and travelled from NY, blah blah blah... This place is awesome. I've been coming here for years and the food is ridiculously good. I always get the vegetarian platter but I've also gotten the gyros and pastisio and avgolemono soup. Everything I've had has been great. The one complaint I have is the pita they give you with the platters. They're dry and cardboardy and even when they're fresh the seem stale. I wish they gave you the gyro pita instead. Spinach pie also is not that great. Make it yourself. Service is hit or miss, but I don't come for the service. I come for the hummus, falafel, teramozsalata, galaktobouriko (sp???) and Mythos!

Jennifer N.

For a long time, I was down on Greek Corner- it felt too much like a diner for me (the paper placemats with that trademark gold border, the bright lights) with a faux Greek motif, too decor-less to warrant a trip to that still slightly-dead zone between the far reaches of Porter and the beginnings of Arlington. But tonight I put my diner biases to the side, and I actually found Greek Corner to be good - I had the veggie plate (spinach pie, two stuffed grape leaves, falafel, greek salad, hummus, and french fries - for $10.95) -- all of it was enjoyable, and the grape leaves (one of my all time favorite foods) and spinach pie were both exquisite. In fact, the only disappointing part of the plate was the falafel which was far too hard on the outside and far too flavorless on the inside. All this to say, yes, Greek Corner lacks ambience, but the food and friendly staff make up for it. If you find yourself in that northern Mass Ave corridor and you're craving a fairly quick, fairly inexpensive meal, Greek Corner is a good spot. And if you're craving that diner feeling, Greek Corner just might be the place for you.

Why are your gyros so mouthwatering and delicious Greek Corner Restaurant? It's almost as if they have some sort of gravitational pull on me. I can't get enough of you. Although everything on their menu is pretty darn tasty, my favorite has to be the chicken gyro with some extra cucumber yogurt sauce. I also get the greek fries on the side. These fries must be from another planet or something. They are crazy good. The fries are homemade with the skins on & topped with grated cheese, oregano and lemon juice. I'm sitting here drooling for a bite of their gyro and fries. Expect a visit from me soon Greek Corner!

2 Corners Special Gyros, Please! And yes, we will be there in 10 minutes to pick them up :-) This is our common, we don't feel like cooking but want yummy, freshly made delicious food ready in 10 minutes that isn't from a place like McDonalds or Taco Bell go-to place. Greek Corner, literally is around the corner from our house. I feel like it must have fate for us to live so close to it, since we really are pretty dependent on their gyros for situations like that. Plus if you order food to go/for pick up here, I swear they give you way more salad and fries (the two side options you get when you order the gyro as a plate) than they do when you eat in the actual restaurant. Plus their gyros are HUGE! Just getting that is a meal all on its own, and their combo of seasoned beef and lamb with all of those herbs and that yogurt sauce in it, is simply perfect. Perfect, I say. Their soup here is so so, but their sampler plate with that spinach pie, hommus, tabouleh, feta cheese, eggplant salad and olives is awesome and totally makes up for what their soup lacks. But I think that I could easily eat a corners special gyro from here a couple times a week and never get bored with that flavor, so if you haven't tried this place yet, now you know what to order when you do!!!

If we could give our experience with the Greek Corner Restaurant zero stars we would!! My partner and have had great success and have enjoyed many meals using Grub Hub. We want to be clear that our issue is with the Restaurant. The one + was on-time delivery, it was all downhill from there. After taking the food, we realized that the dessert was missing. Dessert! The best part!! We called, and were cut off mid-sentence, and rudely told to call the delivery service. No apology, simply cut off. When we tried to fully explain the situation, cut off again. Ok, I understand that the Restaurant hires a third party delivery service, and that GrubHub is also contracted out, however, the buck stops with the place serving the food, as far as we are concerned. If he would have been nicer, maybe even offer an apology and an explanation, we would have been on our way... but he hung up on us. Our meal was over $60 including almost $20 in tip and delivery fees - our hard earned money wasted. I chatted (great service!) with a representative from GrubHub and our account was credited for the item, and we received a code for $ off a future purchase. We were also told (TAKE HEED!!) that it is best to filter searches on the weekend to filter out businesses who hire delivery services. Will do! One other thing: I am a vegetarian, though not exceptionally picky. I had asked that they separate the meat and veggie apps into different boxes. They didn't do this, which I would normally not complain about (maybe they didn't see my friendly note?) but the item containing fish eggs on the platter was splattered on at least half of the other items in the box. Really? Thanks for that. As for the rest of the food? Nothing spectacular. I feel bad not including more about the food in the review, but the service really spoiled my appetite. At least now we know to steer clear (of delivery services that charge extra, AND this place) and we hope that they rectify their customer service for the sake of their business, because we can't imagine that many people in the Boston area enjoy being treated like crap. Also, to the person who wrote the review about the fries being gross and soggy - nothing's changed!!

My girlfriend and I had been to Greek Corner about two years ago and loved it, so we were excited to make it back. Unfortunately, the return trip wasn't as good as we were hoping for. We started by splitting tzatziki and saganaki (fried cheese). The tzatziki was nice, but the saganaki was frankly, gross. It came to our table in flames, and whatever alcohol was used to flambe it hadn't burned off, so it still tasted like it had been soaked in alcohol. Even after my girlfriend poured out the extra liquid, it tasted off. We split the lamb chops for our main course, which were fine, but not fantastic. Overall, we left feeling like we'd want to try another Greek place before coming back.

Travis M.

Food is always very good here. The corner special Gyro is always good. Highly recommend the Greek fries as a great twist on the usual French fries. Service is usually very attentive though at times it can get busy an you might get "lost" in the crowd when at a corner table. Parking is really tough here as it is right in Mass Ave. Would recommend taking the T (77 bus) or else you might need to park a bit away and walk. They do serve beer and wine. Makes for a nice lunch or dinner out.

Dinara E.

Their chicken wraps with tsatsiki (sp?) sauce is amazing! Their fries are bland (unsalted) and on the soggy side - assume they are just left out a lot. Their chicken and lemon soup is weird and not that good. But I'm not joking when I say that I could eat their chicken gyros every single day for the rest of my life.

Kathy J.

Love anything they make with lamb, the souvlaki was excellent but the roast lamb was even better. I love the fries, I don't know why, I normally wouldn't even order them. Saganaki (sp) hot flaming cheese yum! Wasn't crazy about the grilled shrimp, but loved the greek salad it came with.

Greek Corner lived up the the hype! We spent over a week in Greece and the Greek Islands this summer and Greek Corner was the most authentic food we've found in Boston. We started with the sampler plate and added a falafel to try. The sampler platter was awesome. Everything on it was great. The dolmas were tightly rolled and packed with flavor. The taziki was just right. The taramosalata was a stand out....I'd never had it before but couldn't stop eating it! The only average item was the spanikopita. It was good, but didn't taste extremely fresh and could have used more filling. I liked the falafel as well, but it wasn't your traditional fried chickpea falafel. It was dark throughout and wasn't as "soft" on the inside as I normally like. I got a village salad before my meal that brought back so many memories of Greece. They do not serve lettuce salads in Greece so the village salad is as authentic as it comes. For my entree I got the lamb shank in red sauce and it was phenomenal! The lamb was so tender it melted in my mouth and the flavor was outstanding! The red sauce complemented it perfectly and the rice helped bring everything together. This was some of the best lamb I've ever had. My wife got the gyro and was extremely happy with it as well. Service was excellent as well. Very friendly and attentive. If you want good, authentic Greek food, go to the Greek Corner!

Wonderful gyro sandwiches and gyro plates. I've also enjoyed the grape leaf plate, Greek fries, chicken kebab, beef kabob and lamb kabob. I thought the spinach pie lacked flavor, the baklava was far too sweet (almost couldn't eat it and it gave me a toothache) and my Greek salad wrap with chicken fell apart when I bit into it. I wish that the salads came in separate containers when ordered for take out, as warm lettuce is gross. The pita bread is thoroughly enjoyed. I used to live right down the street and when I needed a Greek fix, this place was perfect.

A family-run place that will certainly not raise the bar for exotic Greek cuisine, but very good food, all homemade. Vegetarian platter( grape leaves, spinach pie, falafel, hummus, salad, rice) is $11. Everything else is reasonable, too. Menu is limited and predictable, but good for them for only trying to do what they do right. Slightly erratic service from different people (probably all family) at different times. Typical Mass Ave storefront location in older building with high tin-embossed ceiling and requisite maps/murals of Geek islands,

Excellent Middlle Eastern Food in somerville. Their vegetarian platter is a rock star with fresh pita. Did not try anything else but I will for sure.

Been back twice to pick up some take out, and the staff is attentive and on the ball. I won't ever stop going there when I'm in the neighborhood. The food is just that good!

Another Triple D place I HAD to try. My friend lives around the block from this restaurant so we stopped by on our way home from sightseeing last night. I got the Gyro last night as it was so good. The meat was tender, juicy, and extremely flavorful. Once again Guy Fieri has led me in the right direction!

Have liked this place for over ten years. Solid food, relaxed atmosphere - sometimes it gets crowded and/or the servers are a little stressed, but take out is good too. Lamb!

Just tried this place for the first time, they were so busy, it was a wait for a table. They were short staffed and the credit card machine didn't work. We ordered spinach pie, the corner special gyro, corner special souvlaki, gyro plate and tuna wrap with salad. All was delicious and we will definitely be back. Come on a Sunday, better chance to find a parking space.

As they say in the Greek homeland - Opa!!! This place is absolutely fantastic - whether it be for a group dinner party with friends, a quick dine-in, or take out (I've done all 3). The staff is super friendly and laid back and the prices are more than reasonable. The restaurant has a great neighborhood feel as well. Why don't you do yourself a favor and order the Corner Special Gyro, and treat yourself a bit by making it a Combo with an order of fries. I'm willing to say that is the best value you'll find in Cambridge/Somerville - period! It's also the best Gyro I've had. I've also had the Souvlaki plate and it is delicious. I haven't tried any of the desserts, but you're darn tootin' that I've got my eye on their baklava!

Once again, the Greek Corner amazes me. I arrived at Greek Corner tonight with a huge line out the door; apparently, one of the waitresses was late/didn't show up, and everyone arrived at 7PM to eat dinner! Despite the potential shitshow that could have ensued, our service and food came out in a timely manner. I was pretty shocked that the cooks and staff were able to keep up with the demand... there were literally 20 order tickets lined up, ready to be made! My first few reviews are terrible, so looking back on my original one is kind of embarrassing. As I mentioned, everything I've had is delicious, but the true stand-outs include: any of their soups (had the lentil tonight, out of this world!!!!) village salad with chicken (great mix of veggies and feta without lettuce, served with grilled chicken), greek fries, and chicken slouvaki! Parking isn't too terrible; you may need to do a lap or two, but you should be able to find a spot within a few minutes. They have a bustling take-out business and also deliver though a variety of food delivery services. Cheap, delicious, ethnic... my three favorite attributes for dining out.

Very Good Greek restaurant near Cambridge. I started off with the sampler for 2 but among 3 of us, it was plenty. It came with tzaziki, hummus, tabouleh, eggplant, feta cheese, spinach pie and fish roe and it was a good portion for us to dip our pita bread into. I got the gyro special with the fries and it was very good. Service was excellent and I really enjoyed my meal here.

Edgar D.

We were very excited about this place after reading the reviews. Unfortunately we were fairly disappointed when we actually tried it. The salads consist of block-cut lettuce, a meager amount of onion and carrots, and not even much dressing other than oil. The fries looked interesting... like we were about to taste something quite interesting. The also disappointed. They were soggy and unspiced. The meats were good, but not in any way great. And the feta cheese was scarce throughout. I am afraid we won't be coming back any time soon.

Best Greek food in Boston. I especially love the spanikopita and chicken kebabs. also good is the souvlaki, gyros, Greek salads, and the tzatziki. Mmm! My workplace often caters from here and the catering is delicious, and the delivery is always on time and served with a smile.

4.5 stars. It'd be 5 if not for one small gripe, which I will get to. Everything I've had from Greek Corner has been quality. Their gyros -- I've had both the Souvlaki Special and the regular Greek Corner Special repeatedly -- are stuffed full to brimming with tasty meat and veggies, and topped off with some seriously finger-licking-good tsatziki. I cannot get enough of that stuff. If you order it as a side/appetizer for delivery, they send you a pretty substantial container of it, along with a square of wax paper containing a healthy grip of (usually) still-warm pita bread. The hummus is likewise delish, though this last order, the consistency was off. I did not care, though, and here's why: the ingredients are still obviously totally fresh, the result is still fresh, and the flavor is good even if it was a little bit liquid for my taste. Actually, I have yet to meet any of their appetizers that I don't like. Guilty pleasure: homemade smoked sausage. It's an amazing treat on a chilly (or hung over) day. Finally tried the pastitso: worth the hype. My madre lives in Italy much of the year. Greece isn't Italy, but Italians do like bechamel and perfectly-cooked noodles, and this dish had plenty of both. Where did the missing half of a star go, then? Because poorly packed delivery boxes make me a sad panda. I think their side salads would be awesomely vinegar-tart and delicious, but they are always packed in the same box as whatever heated entree I've ordered, and have wilted into puddles of unappetizing hot lettuce by the time they get to me. Salads do not belong in boxes with hot entrees. It really does make a difference. For similar reasons, the gyro plate travels better than actual gyros. The more you know!

I LOVE Greek food, and it's hard to do it wrong. And they don't do it wrong -- it's good. Not cheap, not spectacular, but very good. The fries are often cold, but the gyros are very good. The dolmades are so-so and they don't do lemon sauce, but the souvlaki is good (very expensive for what you get). If you like Greek food, give it a try! The only real problem with this place is that it takes over an hour to get a simple dinner there. The service is just awful. Not mean, but unbearably slow. Really, really, really, really slow. Unfortunately, my littlest child is not adventurous, and always gets the burger, which is AWFUL, but that's not the restaurant's fault -- they're better at Greek food. Also, I almost forgot: the baklavah is very good (lots of cinnamon).

Went here on a Sunday night. It was not crowded at all and I was seated immediately. I ordered the Gyro combo with fries. The food overall gets a 5/5 as far as Greek food goes. The Gyro was one of the best I've had and wasn't too big or small - just right. The fries were a little soggy and just average, but I wasn't going there for them anyways. The service was great as well once they changed my waitress. The first waitress didn't come to my table and I had to flag down the bus boy who tracked her down (her first comment to me was, "Were you waiting that long?" - as if I was bugging her). Before getting my food they thankfully changed to a waiter who knew how to do his job and was attentive. If i lived in the area I would come here all the time. Overall 4.5/5 (rounding down for the waitress and soggy fries)

I come here a lot with my co-workers for a quick lunch. They do a great job getting us out of there in time. Fantastic greek salad, gyros and hummus. Parking isn't so bad because Mass Ave isn't that busy mid-day. Bring some quarters though if you can't grab a 2hour spot which are close to the restaurant.

K G.

Greek food cooked to perfection. The meats are all flavorful and moist with high quality salads and pilaf. The Gyro plate is a perfect meal with large portions. I love the family atmosphere here and although they get unbelievably busy everyone seems to maintain a smile and a pleasant attitude. They have a fairly large selection and everything is authentic and fresh. Pricing ranges from $10-15 per person here and it is beyond worth it. I will definitely always consider this place for my Greek food. The only downside is that parking can be a pain sometimes, but what's new in Cambridge.

erin n.

I've lived in the Cambridge area almost three years now and have eaten at Greek Corner maybe 5, 6 times. The food is really, really tasty and is really consistent. I've love the souvlaki, it's my favorite by far. I have to say that what has disappointed me time after time, though, is the service. It is SLOW. Not slow as in we have to wait forever to get our food, slow as in we wait forever for a waiter to approach us from start. This, too, has been consistent. Every once in awhile, we get a waiter that's not so friendly, too, which adds to the frustration of waiting 15 minutes to ask for water. Alas, I continue to go. Why? Because it's really yummy. I just can't give a "4" due to the service, otherwise the food gets a "4."

Its true. You can get a decent meal here without breaking the bank! Under $15 a person for some fantastic food! I have grown to really love this place- the only issue is driving to it, and no subway stations nearby- but I'm from MT- I don't like city driving. The wait staff here are fantastic- the setting is a little off in that its lacking in any intimacy. There is one large dining room with several plain looking tables. The food is what any meal is really about- so I'll compromise on the decor. The food is amazing here- its just fantastic. and the desert is to die for. How can anybody go wrong?

I have been getting takeout from here periodically for a couple of years, but I have given up. The food quality seems to fit to a bell curve fairly well. About half the time it is in the not-so-bad to pretty-good range. Then maybe a quarter of the time you get better than pretty good. It is that bottom end at the tail that kills it for me, that remaining 25% that is just bad. I preferred the souvlaki plate, which gets you a couple skewers of lamb, rice, and salad. Bad salad: I think around 3:00PM the kitchen hauls out a crate of lettuce, chops it up and dumps it in a big vat and pours dressing over it. If you get salad at 7:00PM you are probably getting something from the top half of the vat, but woe be unto the takeout order at 8:30PM that gets the sloppy dregs at the bottom. No points either for the precisely allocated single slice of cucumber and wedge of never ripe tomato. Bad souvlaki: Again, I can only think this is a matter of timing. I have found some pretty rank lamb skewers in my takeout. Some achieve this odd combination of being over cooked and dry, yet also suffering from an over marinated taste too. Old boots don't usually yield lamb-like cubes, but maybe they have discovered a new technique in the kitchen. Maybe the lesson here is dine-in, don't get takeout. Maybe it is to not get takeout near the end of the night, because all you end up getting is leftovers. They can make good food here, but they can't manage to do it consistently and that is what kills it.

Absolutely delicious gyros! Perhaps the best in Boston. But that's not all. Everything else is delicious too. They have the best Avgolemano soup (my favorite), great fries, and fantastic desserts (their galaktoboureko is mighty tasty). "Da Connah" is a solid place all around for good, honest Greek food. Their gyros alone will have me coming back for more.

Samantha H.

Being Greek myself, I know Greek food! And this is GOOD Greek food!! Everything is great but my favorite thing to eat is the gyro (without lettuce). Good size, plenty of meat, plenty of tzatziki sauce and inexpensive! Staff is very friendly, always greeting me with a smile. The decor makes me feel like I am back in Athens! YUM! Mouth is watering just thinking about it!

I used to go here a lot as a child, and the things I loved then are still there. The atmosphere, a family-run Greek restaurant where the severs share their Euro Cup brackets and know their clientele by name, is some of the best I've seen for families in Cambridge, accompanied by the mural of the Greek coast and incredible accommodation for the various picky eating phases my siblings and I have gone through (including but not limited to "grilled cheese without the cheese"). My personal favourites include the fried eggplant appetizer, the calamari, the tzatziki (which is appropriately garlicky and full of cucumber without being overpowering) and the taramasalata. I went there last night and had spinach pie (always excellent), greek fries (french fries with cheese and tarragon - a little soggy but still interesting), and classic rice pudding with cinnamon. Other favourites include the moussaka, the pastitsio (my brother's favourite), and the special gyro. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a family friendly restaurant that's reasonably priced with good food.

Guy Fieri sold me on this place. We ordered everything from the sampler appetizer to the greek fries to the smoked sausage and baked lamb shank. Food is fresh, authentic and outstanding if you know how to eat Greek food. Prices are average and worth it. The only thing they need to work on is their shitty service. Would go back.

First, I'm Greek. My parents moved here from Greece and all mom ever cooked was Greek food, so I think I know a bit about it. If I don't feel like making it myself, or want to enjoy a variety of dishes with friends without cooking for 3 days, THIS IS THE PLACE. Greek Corner is my favorite Greek restaurant (next to the Olympia in Lowell). Their dishes taste just like my mom's. You just can't get any more authentic than that. And if you just think this place is "okay", then you're probably not Greek. 'Nuff said. I recommend the lentil soup (perfect), fried saganaki, and fried calamari for appetizers. Oh, and the tzatziki is perfect. I hate dill. I wish I knew who made the assumption that Greek food should have dill in it. My mom never used it. So, yeah, they don't put dill in the tzatziki, which is key for me. And if you've never tried it, the taramosalata is divine. I could eat waaay too much of that if you let me. The spanakopita is excellent (though I like mine a bit better, but I'm biased). And if you like lamb, go for it. The gyro is fantastic. Oh, hell, get anything. It's all good! Kali Orexi

The Greek corner is a nice little find. The kind of home style local place you can feel safe at knowing you are going to get a good meal. We went with the family which includes two very picky children and a vegetarian wife. We all found dishes we enjoyed and had a nice experience. We ordered a variety of appetizers and entrees and almost all were done well. Presentation is simple, diner style, and the food comes out fast considering how busy they are. On a Tuesday night at 6:30 they were pretty much full. Overall a solid place and a great break from the other, fancier, Greek restaurants I have been to.

A friend and I stopped in for lunch on a weekday. The tinted windows are deceiving from the outside-- if the neon sign had not announced "open," the place would have looked closed. When we entered, though, we discovered that there were quite a few people enjoying lunch here. It was a bit warm in the restaurant, but not too bad. I ordered the corner's special gyro and my friend ordered the falafel sandwich. They were both large and delicious. For dessert, we split some baklava, and oh man was it good. My only reservations are about the service and their "vegetarian gyro." We were seated somewhat near the back, and it kind of seemed like our server disappeared and/or forgot about us. Granted, when we finally caught someone's eye, he was very friendly and helpful, and we weren't in a rush, so it wasn't the end of the world. Also, I think the item "vegetarian gyro" is a bit misleading-- we were thinking it would have vegetarian meat, but no, it's just a greek salad on a pita, and it costs the exact same thing as a gyro with meat. Doesn't really make sense...

Amy C.

Having been here twice, I would say that the service isn't great, although, on our last visit, the young man was so charming that we really didn't mind and we weren't in a hurry. Also, the prices are very reasonable and the food is excellent which counts a lot for us. I had a skewer of lamb on a Greek salad. The lamb was cooked perfectly - just slightly pink in the center of a cube. My husband had the plate of lamb skewers with french fries. His lamb was nicely cooked, too. One of our guests had the Gyro plate and the other had the special, swordfish skewers. Both meals were good and the swordfish was fresh and perfectly cooked. The decor is not fancy, but the prices are right and the food is consistently good.

Trisha A.

Oh, Greek Corner! You are a lifesaver for a couple of reasons: 1. You provide me with yummy, relatively inexpensive Greek food, which 2. Stops me from actually wanting or needing my Greek mother-in-law to come visit to make it for me (and trust me, this is crucial!) I love Greek Corner...what else can I say? I've eaten both at the restaurant and gotten take out. I find the method of service there very European -- no one is bugging you to hustle you out the door to clear the table, but you can still get the things that you need. I've had the pork souvlaki, chicken souvlaki, and the gyro dinner plate and all were fabulous. Get the horiatiki instead of whatever the regular side is because it's delicious and gives a more authentic experience anyway. I am also a huge fan of their tzatziki and spanakopita. You can easily spend under $10 per person if you get just a dinner plate...and you will be full!
(5)
Aimee L.

My favorites: * Souvlaki plate or Souvlaki sandwich * Spanakopita Be prepared for onions and garlic to stick with you for the next 24 hours. Also, be careful of broken skewer pieces in the meat.. especially in your sandwich. Restaurant: relatively clean and bigger than it looks from the outside. Service: ok - specifically I remember the first time coming here, when it was 20 minutes to closing on a Saturday, and our group was turned away, although many people were still dining and others were picking up their orders. At Greek Corner, the service when dining in is ok, but it's better to do take out. Parking: sometimes difficult, especially since the side street is reserved for local residents.

Faith N.

The fact that so many Greek people have given such good reviews to this restaurant speaks to how authentic the food her is, and the more authentic, the more tasty it is! And it really is so tasty. I am a crazy person for Spanikopita. Filo dough, spinach and cheese makes the most mouth watering parcel of delight. They do it right at Greek Corner :) The eggplant and feta wrap is also a favorite of mine. Here's my moral dilemma.. I am really trying to spend my money (thus my consumer vote) at restaurants and venues that use environmentally friendly practices and are running their business in a sustainable way. The restaurant industry is such a large entity and I think it is so important for restaurants to lessen their env impact as much as they can. And it's totally possible and super cost effective. From what I know, the Green Restaurant Association works closely with restaurants to make them Certified Green Restaurants. So, I'm urging all of my favorite places, and Greek Corner is definitely one of them, to look into it. I hope that no readers get sick of me doing it!

Best Greek food, (Chicken Gyro's and Tzatziki, specifically) I have ever had, anywhere. Everything tastes homemade and delicious. Friendly table service, good for take-out too. My only regret was living around the corner for a year before I tried this place.

June D.

Had lunch at the Greek Corner recently after watching Guy Fieri's glowing review on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. We arrived on a Monday about noon, sat down right away. It's a decent sized restaurant, several tables and great waitstaff. My husband and I split the egg-lemon chicken rice soup. It was delicious. Just the right amount of lemon, perfect temperature. A good way to start our lunch. Then we each order the gyro sandwich. Really good - loved the homemade pita bread. The prices were very reasonable. We will go back for dinner. Definitely recommend this place.

R T.

This review is the latest in my effort to review restaurants FOR TAKEOUT, because that's how my husband and I usually eat restaurant food. We ordered a gyro plate with fries, a chicken gyro sandwich, the greek fries, and the baklava. We had high hopes because we love the spanokopita. The pros: the food arrived on time and it was still warm. The gyros are very good. The flatbread is fresh and soft. The flavors of the meat, both the chicken and the lamb, are fantastic. If we were only rating these two dishes, I'd give GCR four stars. however ... The cons: the fries were barely cooked and flavorless, even the greek fries which were dusted with some sort of cheese. Also, we got approximately four small bites of baklava for four dollars. It tasted good but customer satisfaction-wise it's a travesty. In short, next time I'll stick to anything made with filo dough and my husband says he'll stick with the gyro. But I won't go experimenting again.

This place is half good. Nothing at all like Peter's downtown by the financial district. The portion of the spinach pie and the feta was tiny tiny! They don't refill your water glass. I like their chicken-lemon-egg drop soup, though. I'd go back, but only if I was in the area.

I tried the Souvlaki lunch plate and have had it regularly about once a week since. The lamb is tangy and offset perfectly with the yogurt sauce (pay extra and get some. It's worth it). The salad is fresh and crispy with good basic oil/vinegar dressing. Mix in some of the sauce to boost the flavor.

Brian K.

The Greek Corner is casual Greek food the way it should be done. I've traveled pretty extensively looking for the perfect gyro and I think it lives at this unassuming North Cambridge location. The lamb meat delicious and, nearly as importantly, the gyro always arrives well put together, not crumbling or falling apart they way some other restaurants serve it. The chicken gyro is like a work of art. It's just so good. But don't feel that you need stick to these staples because I haven't found a single wrong note on the menu. The spanakopita is worth ordering and the baklava is great. My favorite appetizer on the menu, though, has got to be the fried calamari, which was a surprise. An old roommate and I ordered it on a whim once and were a little bit disappointed when it didn't arrive with something to dip it in. Turns out that doesn't matter. The octopus is lightly fried and so well seasoned that to dunk it in marina or anything else would detract from just how good it really is. All that said I do have just a few gripes. The house red wine isn't worth ordering. The front door to the restaurant must have a kind of brain washing ability because I always forget and end up ordering a glass. And just like that I'm always disappointed. The other problem is the service. I've eaten in European restaurants and know that the dining experience is different, to say the least. Still, waitresses come and go seemingly at their whim and occasionally walk by empty glass - a big no-no for me. But the staff is always friendly and that does a little bit to make up for the inattentive service. So if you're looking for the most mouth watering gyro and calamari in North Cambridge, don't bother going anywhere else - it just won't be as good.

Really cute, really delicious. Cozy up in a booth and order the house red and some starters. The fried zucchini is light and wonderful, the fried eggplant tossed with a subtle citrus sauce even better. The spanakopita is flaky and buttery, the falafel flavorful and adorned with generous servings of hummus and tabouleh. Leave room for the mains, though. Dinner plates come with a wonderful rice (or fries) and a Greek salad with a block of good feta. I sampled the gamut of meats. Souvlaki was satisfying and gyro was tangy with a killer tzatziki, but the lamb kebab was overdone. The pasticchio is a lovely comfort food, with ground beef and pasta baked in a creamy bechamel. Finish with coffee and you've just had a wonderful, homestyle Greek meal.

this place is legit. havent been to greece, but im guessing this is as authentic as it gets! literally the best chicken and feta cheese i've ever had. been desperately trying to re-create the perfectly charred, ridiculously juicy chicken at home, without success. guess i will keep returning for pointers. enjoy!

I've been writing draft after draft of this. . . my favorite was in a Herodetus-esque kinda thing, but I couldn't get it to gel so I'll say this. This place is legendary and has been around forever. Long enough that Herodetus himself wrote about it. Fan-friggin-tastic with all the accouterments that one might expect from a Greek joint: Mediterranean scenes, hard chairs, and paper placemats. OH! and Delicious food! The dolmades were little balloons of flavor and the Gyros. . .Ahhhh the gyros. . the true measure of any greek place The gyros suck. Don't get the regular gyros. It's that ground homogenized crap. If you want the real thing. the real tasty tender melt-inyour-mouth thing, get the lamb sammich, So tender, so flavorful, so delicious. Just as Zeus ordered all those thousands of years ago. Yeah, they're that good. So. Greek corner, I salute you. And if you let me back in I promise to keep my pants on this time! SERIAL!

Love Greek Corner! Feeling adventurous one day, I went here with my brother to try falafel for the first time. I was not disappointed. Service was quick and friendly. Prices were great, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting (if not a bit loud, given that it was a Saturday lunch, lots of kids around). Parking isn't bad at all, given the location. Greek Corner is very affordable; our bill was less than 30$ for 3 people, and we were able to try 2 entrees and 2 soups. The lemon chicken soup and the lam gyro are fantastic!

Shaina P.

Still delicious. Me, Dave, and brother tried three different lamb dishes. In each dish, the lamb was tender and delicious inside, and yet each had a completely different taste and texture. Awesome! Correction on the gyro plate: more like ground meet molded around a skewer, grilled, and then sliced over pilaf and salad. Looked kinda like mini lamb-y donuts (yes, it was yummerz). What is that secret ingredient in their pilaf that makes it so damn addicting? I could eat their sample platter in one bite. Quality, quantity, and great prices.

Bryan G.

Best Greek food in Boston. Hands down. No doubt about it. I have eaten in or ordered out from here probably more than fifty times. I have never been disappointed with anything I have eaten, and I have ordered most of the menu. Most often, I opt for the Corner Special Souvlaki, with a taramosalata appetizer. Taramosalata may look weird (it's fish roe mixed with potatoes, so it comes out this odd pink color), but trust me, it is excellent. Ask for extra pita; the appetizer portion is big. The key to the Souvlaki is the cucumber yogurt sauce, which greatly complements the flavorful lamb. I also recommend the pastitso and moussaka. I get them sometimes, just for a change. Greek Corner has all the standards, too (hommus, tabouleh, grape leaves, Greek salad, olives) individually or in a sampler plate, which I enjoy when I come with Greek food newbies. The service is a mixed bag. If you come during dinner hours, expect to wait a while for your food. They are always understaffed during these hours, when the place is really busy. However, they are much faster during other times of the day, and take out has never taken more then 10 minutes preparation. As for the atmosphere, the place is cozy and can be quite loud. But what else can you expect? It's a homey place, serving homemade Greek food. And they do it to perfection.

Jocelyn C.

One of my favorite restaurants in Boston - great food at a good price. Everytime I've gone and deviated from my usual order though, I usually regret it. It's not like they were bad, they just can't compare to the swordfish kebab yet (honorable mention to the gyros though). Their swordfish kebab is incredible: incredibly well cooked and tender. Even my friend who normally doesn't like swordfish was a converted fan after trying a taste of mine. Good portions and I don't get why, but their rice pilaf is weirdly delicious. What's so special about rice? I'm not quite sure...I am generally meh about rice pilaf and the artificial buttery taste that it leaves in your mouth but Greek Corner rice is deliciously flavored yet not too heavy.

Liked the location and atmosphere of this place. Parking is a PITA so be prepared. Gyros were good but I wasn't as blown away as I hoped I'd be thanks to DDD. Portion sizes were appropriate for the price.

Overall I really like Greek Corner and I eat the same items all the time. Pros 1) Gyros - super good and the bread is always fresh 2) Fries - really good and they taste fresh not frozen. Some people think that they are too greasy, but I guess I like it that way 3) Tabouleh - pretty good Cons 1) Falafel - Gross and really hard with no taste 2) Baklava - dry and tastless. Maybe the authentic version is too not have it sweet (forgive me if that is the case). 3) Home serve ware - They should invest in professional/commercial serve ware. They put desserts on homestyle dishes

Since I did my take out review, I have eaten in a few times. Service can be a little spotty, but everyone is always really nice, which makes up for it. Also, the food is just so so so good. Tonight I had a lamb shish kebab sandwich which was one of the most delicious things I've had in a LONG time. My boyfriend always gets the gyro - always - if that says anything about how good it is. And their falafel is super yummy - I tend to get the falafel sandwich, but now that I know how good the lamb is that might change. Turns out the French fries still aren't good in the restaurant. And their lettuce is always iceberg. Those are my two main criticisms - the French fries and lettuce.

Greek Corner's unassuming blue and white storefront belies a lively, family-owned neighborhood restaurant that serves simple, authentic Greek food. The dÃ©cor isn't much, except for an enormous seascape mural on the back wall. The inexpensive menu features basic Greek cuisine done very well. My boyfriend and I went on a Wednesday night and almost all the tables were taken. We ordered hommus as an appetizer which was very good. For dinner, my boyfriend had the Corner's Special Gyro with grounded beef and lamb seasoned with herbs and spices, and I ordered the chicken kebab with marinated chicken breast on a skewer with green pepper and onions, cooked on charcoal. The gyro was good, but we thought that the gyro at Steve's Greek Cuisine at Faneuil Hall was marginally better. The chicken kebab was also very good, but we thought that the chicken could use more seasoning. While Greek Corner fell short in some areas, you can't beat the price so we will definitely be back.

I was very pleasantly surprised by the Greek Corner. When I walked in I was expecting a typical grease-ball meal, but I was only half right. Me and my girlfriend ordered from Greek Corner take-out. I got a gyro plate, my girlfriend got a Greek salad wrap, and we also got a saganaki to share. The guy I talked to on the phone was very helpful, telling me what everything came with, how big the appetizer was, etc. As soon as we got the food home we dug in, wanting to make sure everything was still hot and fresh. The saganaki was very good, despite it not being prepared table-side. My gyro was fantastic. The meat was perfectly cooked and the filling was perfectly mixed and portioned. My girlfriend's Greek salad wrap, while also very good, was a bit problematic. The thing was absolutely swimming in oil. She practically had to eat the thing over the sink it was spilling so much (insert BP joke here). Despite the absurd mess it made though, my girlfriend still liked it and we still plan to go back again sometime. One odd thing, our order came with a lot of extra pita bread. I'm not sure what it was for or why it was there, but we had no use for it. This is not to say it was a negative, it was just curious.

So, I probably need help with the Yelp star rating. It does not seem to align at all with the Michelin rating or any conventional scheme. Am I wrong to assume that it is curved-up a bit? I flag something as three stars and the Yelp screen displays 'A-OK' -- that makes sense to me for Greek Corner. It's okay. Okay is not bad. Yet, I see all of these four-star and five-star reviews for the place. What am I missing? It's a corner joint. "Joint" in the traditional sense of the word. There is not a right angle anywhere in the place, It's all bowed shelves, mismatched fixtures and furniture and bits and pieces of things tacked up. It's okay food. Nice to have a reliable Greek restaurant in/near Boston. But, it's not five-star. If the only point of comparison for local Greek food is the lame, Viagra-laden, happy hour joint at the Long Wharf Marriott, then I can see why folks are excited about Greek Corner, but, hey, it's really just okay. If you end up spending months in Boston and miss real Greek food, you will appreciate Greek Corner Restaurant, despite it's inaccessible location and run-down decor. The staff is friendly. Service quick. And, as I think I mentioned, the food is okay. Enjoy!

Put it this way... I have Greek blood in me. I've been to many Greek restaurants. This place has by far the BEST GYRO I have ever had... and the best rice pudding to boot.

Clean place, awesome food, nice service. Wife and I had the vegetarian combo, which was very tasty. Other dishes at the table looked tasty, too. Greek desserts were all wonderful (seven people shared rice pudding, flan, baklava, and galaktobouriko). Will definitely come again.

It can be a little noisy in Greek Corner, but the energy definitely lends itself to a warm atmosphere. The walls are beautifully painted with inviting scenery of Greece. The lamb souvlaki plate is decently priced and very good. The lamb's not really gamey but tender and flavorful. The sides were fresh as well. You feel like you're being treated as a guest at someone's home with the friendliness and warmth of the service.

I had heard rave reviews about this place for years so convinced the BF and I to finally check it out. We headed over at 8:30 PM on Fri. 7/27. Easily found street parking at this time (3 spots away from restaurant). Upon entering, three waitresses were standing behind the counter chatting and watching the opening ceremonies to the Olympics. One sat us immediately. Another waitress came back within 5 min. and took our drink orders and we placed our order since we read the menu before coming. Ordered the spanakopita; Greek fries (homemade fries with skins on, topped with grated cheese, oregano and lemon juice); chicken gyro for myself and a gyro sandwich plate for the BF (gyro, rice and Greek salad). Service: Great. Waitress was friendly, polite and attentive (she came back 2x to check on us). Food came out quickly and was hot to warm where appropriate. Food: Spanakopita ($4.95): I love spanakopita but unfortunately I was not in love with theirs. It was OK. It was bland and lacked that feta sharpness so made me think not a lot of it was used. But the most disappointing part was that they definitely heated it up by microwaving it (piping hot) which made it soft and droopy. I'm pretty sure the phyllo should be crispy. Regardless, I ate the entire triangle. Average but wouldn't order it again. Greek fries ($4.25): I also love french fries (who doesn't?) and had heard great things about these fries from a colleague so I made it a point to try these and after trying them, I'm not sure what she was raving about. In my mind, I was expecting crispy golden shoe string fries with shaved parm sprinkled on top and a dusting of fresh oregano. Instead a pile of dark wide-cut dense fries came out with a layer of parmesean powder covering them and some dried oregano sprinkled about. When you picked up a fry, all the parm powder just fell off; you just tasted potato. No taste of the lemon juice could be had at all. It just didn't come together. They were pretty much just skin-on fries. Average but wouldn't order again. Would try the regular fries. Gyro Sandwich Plate ($10.95): Gryo comes with pilaf and Greek salad. BF said the gyro was very good. The gyro descrip said it had ground beef but the beef was shaved style like the lamb. Meat was flavorful and tender but the lamb was a little dry. He said it was good but not better then the gryo we get at the annual St. Helen & Constantine Church Hellenic festival in Central Square, Cambridge (unbelievable gryos. Go to the fesitval in June). The pilaf wasn't bad but we didn't like the flavor; it had a cinnamon or clove taste (pilaf was tinted red/orange) which just isn't our thing. The salad was average (no kalamatas in sight) but it did have a nice large block of feta. So overall a lot of food for your $11 bucks. Very good. Chicken gyro ($6.50): Now we get to the high marks...This was fantastic. The chicken was tender, juicy and flavorful, and it was definitely charbroiled. I'm really sensitive to gamey tasting chicken (or rib or thigh meat) and there was none of that taste here. The pita was soft and chewy. The tzatziki was thick and garlicky. Great and highly recommended. Side of pita: You also get cut up soft pita wedges with your meal which is a nice touch. Would be better if they also gave you some tzatziki with it though (we asked for some which was delicious). Otherwise it's a little dry to eat but still nice to have. As we were finishing up, a table of 3 sat next to us and ordered only gryos (which they devoured in minutes) and a baklava to share. Clearly they were regulars because I think that's they way to go here: just get some gyros and a dessert to share. I think if you do that, you'll be very pleased. The BF and I will be back when we get the hankering for gyros and I'll definitely try the baklava (which I was told is house-made upon asking).

This place is in my speed dial for a reason. A very good reason. I get takeout from them more than any other place in the area. I call when I get off the commuter rail at Porter and by the time I'm at the restaurant, my gyro is waiting for me, warm and ready to go. Mostly, I do take out from this place, but inside the restaurant is decently spacious and a nice place to grab a meal. The staff are very friendly and the food come us pretty quickly. Honestly, I've never ordered anything other than the Corner Special Gyro. It's an amazing deal. A great amount of food at a very reasonable price. It is also large enough to feed a small army. If I'm feeling famished, I may add a salad, but that's only for the very ambitious. I think the key is great feta and amazing pita bread. The Greek Corner has, most likely, the best Greek food in Boston. Make your way here and do it soon!

I've lived near this place for over two years now and finally decided to check it out a few weeks back. This place is so amazing! I am not a red meat-eater so I can't tell you how their lamb is or their Gyros but their vegetarian sampler plate is so freakin' good! The hummus is thick and yummy, the bread is fresh and delicious, the tabbouleh is spicy and the stuffed grape leaves tasty. I loves me some calamari and this is some of the best squid out there! I also love their rice and swordfish kabobs; thick and juicy! Also, they are not stingy with their portions and the price is right. I also highly recommend washing everything down with their European iced coffee; thick and dark and syrupy! They also serve booze, try a Greek beer like Mythos. Man, I wish I was there right now.

Jody M.

food alone is 5 stars. but due to service, this is a conditional 4 stars. we stopped going to the greek corner a couple years ago - even though the food is great - because the service was so...relaxed. when a waitress would finally get around to us, she would always be friendly, helpful, beautiful but never very...energetic. so we'd wait 20 minutes to get a menu, 30 minutes to place an order, 25 minutes to get the food (always terrific), and another 30 minutes to get the check. then we tried it one more time this week and maybe it was because we got there after 7 and the dinner rush was pretty much over or maybe it was because there are new waitresses, but the service was exponentially faster! still friendly, helpful and beautiful but now also attentive. so as long as the service stays on track, it's 4 stars, even 5. but if this was a momentary lapse, it would have to be 2 stars.

Love it! Highly recommend the chicken gyro. Although everyone else at my work swears by the Corner Special (lamb gyro)... I can't really testify personally because I don't like lamb.

Great vegetarian combination plate. I went with two friends and a baby, and we were able to find a table with stroller parking at 11:45 AM, right before it got busy. As others have said, the waitstaff takes its time to come around to the table, but I think it's really a test they administer: "Hah! Let's see if these chicks can endure the delicious aromas wafting from our kitchen, without freaking out and waving one of us down! If so, we'll serve them!" Sort of like MTV's Boiling Points, without the hidden cameras and monetary rewards. Who needs money, anyway, when you have scrumptious grape leaves, crispy falafel, and to-die-for tabouleh? Not I! Back to food, here's the low down on the things I ate: Tabouleh appie: lemony, tangy, salty, and awesome where it counts. Comes with kickass pita bread. Vegetarian Combo Plate: Grape leaves, spanakopita, falafel (1), grape leaves (2), a huge pile of hummus, and fries (about 17). Everything was grape (haha, I mean great)! Spana was savory, falafel was flavorful, and the fries were fabulous. Coffee: Wow - I really liked the coffee. Maybe it's because I only stock the half-caf shit in my house, but this drove me to Jittersville with one cup alone. So I had two. Baklava: Got two pieces to go, and TRIED to bring one home for hubby but made the mistake of eating mine in the car. Then his. So I didn't give him the empty bag... i just told him lunch was good and suggested we go there for lunch sometime during the week. Yes, play nice-y nice-y with the waitstaff, and they'll love you forever. Be patient, and pretend you're actually in Greece on vacation. The wait won't seem as long that way.

I absolutely love this place--I have to stop there any time I'm near it. The service is excellent and fast, the decor is surprisingly cozy and almost a tiny bit romantic (said the GF), and the food is SUPERB. I made a great deal of noise about there not being good/plentiful Greek food in Somerville and Cambridge, and while I largely feel that's still true, this place is a gem. I always get the gyro, but I've sampled friends' meals, and it's all fantastic. The portion sizes are generous without being overkill, so you don't leave hungry. Lastly, this review wouldn't be complete without mentioning the Greek Fries--I'm in love with Greek Fries. They're basically fries that have been done-up with grated parm and some oregano, but the potatoes are hand cut and absolutely perfect. I always wanted to like hand-cut fries, but they all seemed to come out hard and cardboard-like or else like a carved-up baked potato. Not these--no, sir. Fantastic.

The food is DELICIOUS. 5 of 5 stars. So why 4 stars then? Just picked up food from Greek Corner and waited 15 minutes while my food was ready on the counter for the staff to find a minute to take my ccard. Its the same 3 people that work there all the time and while they are very friendly they are extremely overworked and it really shows, whether it is sit down or take out service. The food is amazing, and is completely worth going. The food comes out fast, once they take your order. Prices are very fair as well.

I had a chance to check out Greek Corner Restaurant last week with my friend, Wynonna J., who felt that Greek Corner was one of the better restaurants in Davis Square. With that ringing endorsement and being new to the area, I was excited to give this place a try. We went on a Friday night, and I thought the service was good. Our vegetarian sampler appetizer came out in a matter of minutes, which was key because we were both really hungry. I could tell Wynonna J. was fading fast, when our conversation decreased rapidly to my uninterrupted monologues, though I think I put on a great show. As an appetizer, the vegetarian sampler plate is delicious. It is a plentiful assortment of grape leaves, spinach pie, hommus, tabouleh, feta cheese, and eggplant salad. It is perfect to split between two people. As far as entrees, I would especially recommend the chicken gyro. It is a delicious deal at $5.75 as it is stuffed with flavorful marinated chicken with lettuce, tomatoes, and onions.

Location: -1 star. Price: +1 star Verdict: 5 stars Way too far for me to go on a whim... but the gyros make it worth the long travel. Yes I waited 30mins in 13 degree weather for the 77 to take me there. But the gyro was so worth it! (I think it's the pita they use...) Their food is excellent. I particularly enjoyed their falafels, hummus and Greek fries. I'm not a fan of the moussaka, but that might just be a difference in preference. It's difficult to find good Greek places in the city that satisfy my cravings...and am happy to say this one hits the spot!

Best greek food in the Boston area, by far. The food is fresh and delicious, the service is great a,nd the staff are super friendly. Greek Corner is the type of establishment you should want to support, they deliver a fantastic product without extraneous frills and pretension. Sometimes it gets a little crowded, and there's a bit of a wait, but it's totally worth it.

It's simply serendipitous that I live 1/4 mile from this place. It's amazing. And I'm not really sure how I survived without it. I have been here several times in the past 2 months of living in the area, and it's delicious and cheap. I've had their chicken gyro combo and the corner special souvlaki and both are so good. I want to try other things but those two wraps are so tasty that I have a hard time straying, even though my roommate said the Pastitsio (sp?) was yummy. And their Baklava is, according to her, divine. Boyfriend lives in Back Bay and we have ordered take out and brought it back to his place. It's on the way from mine to his, but even if it weren't it's totally worth it.

Mmmm this place is delicious and definitely has authentic greek food! One of my favorite things are the greek fries--I have been trying to find them everywhere since I had them in greece and this place has them, delicious! The salads and kebabs are also very good. I have not had a bad dish yet from here and I've tried about half of the menu at this point. Yum!

French Fry World Tour Stop #5 Greek Fries, my friends, is the menu item under scrutiny today. That's some nationalistic chauvinism there, right? Like "Oh, yeah, sure, we gave the world democracy, but McDonald's still owes us royalties for that other thing." There's some food items I regard as indisputably Greek. Kalamata olives? Greek. That salty pink fishy stuff that I can never remember the name of? Greek. Any combination of spinach and feta cheese ever in the history of the universe? Greek. Fries? Well, to be honest, the Greek Corner does a pretty decent job of convincing me that the French have managed to pull a major fast one on the entire world. So right on, Greek Corner, and right on, Greece. Eleutheria e Thanatos ! (Yeah, I just looked that up.) To be honest, I'm not sure exactly what goes into the Greek Corner fries to change their nationality, but there's definitely some lemon juice, possibly vinegar, certainly oregano and a generous amount of parmesan cheese. Maybe some other things. Again, you've probably had some sort of pseudo-gourmet herbed fries that you're thinking must be similar to the Greek Corner's offering but you are WRONG. And I bet you've never had your fancy herby fries with a feta melt, which is the Official Sandwich of Greek Fries the way the hamburger is the Official Sandwich of french fries. I once tried dipping these fries in tzatziki, and it was a bit of a revelation. Eat 'em fast - they can get a little soggy. It won't be tough, I promise. To sum up: **** Serving Size * Condiment Novelty (**** for Preparation Novelty) ** French Fry Fortitude *** Quality Control

They have a leaky air conditioner over the front door, so be sure to step in on the extreme right or left of the door. Cool? Cool. I've only gotten take out from this place but it's always been perfection. Call ahead or just walk in, it usually takes less than 10 minutes before you're on your way to Yummytown. Okay, that was lame but I don't feel like backspacing it because I secretly like saying Yummytown. While you're waiting, pretty much everyone there will ask you how you're doing. I check out the side chalkboard for the day's specials and immediately start cursing myself for ordering my regular (but still delicious) dish. I usually get some spanakopita or the corner special souvlaki (chunks of marinated lamb or pork in pita bread with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, parsley and cucumber yogurt sauce). Last time I came in pretty late and I remember being surprised about how good everything tasted. The meat was tender (and they weren't skimpy when it came to my pita), the ingredients tasted super fresh, and it was super saucy just like me (some may not dig this, so ask for it a little lighter if that's how you roll). It's pretty dangerous that the prices are cheap and it's so close to my apartment!

Sarah M.

This is a great find. The food is excellent, prices are v. good, and the decor is "good enough." I had the chicken gyro combo w/ fries ($8.50), which was great (fantastic warm pita). The portions were HUGE though, and b/c we had ordered the hummos and feta/olives appetizer, it was way more food than I needed, but that's fine. I love leftovers! The hummos was great, the feta and olives were pretty and tasty - my kids loved them. The kids shared a chicken skewers w/ rice from the kids menu and liked it. Sig. other had a gyro combo w/ salad and loved it. A hit -- we'll go back and will just order a little less! The only drawbacks - parking - we found it right in front, but it's a gamble. And decor is 7/10. The review should be a 4.5, wish yelp did halfsies!

Great little place and one of the only good things about working in West Cambridge - you can go here for lunch once and awhile. Always great, I personally recommend the Avgolomeno (sp?) soup to start and it is hard to beat the Gyro - I always come back to it as I have not yet found one as good anywhere else.

MaryJayne T.

I cook Greek and I do it well. My cousin took me here and said it was really great. It's not. For me, pastistio is a test and they failed it -- bechamel underdone, microscopic layer of hamburg and sauce, no taste of any cheese. And the salad! Throw some iceberg on the plate and a hard piece of tomato and call it good? And the dressing -- so astringent and overpowering. The fries while they held hope o first glance were lukewarm and had no taste. Sorry, I'll cook at home.

Went there with a group of friends and ate well. I had the veggie plate which is very generous, including falafel (a bit overcooked), grape leaves with rice (delicious), hummous (very good and fresh), and fries (limp and greasy), and lots of lettuce & tomatoes & feta--a lot of food! The red house wine was decent. My table mates were all happy with their choices although I didn't think it looked very appetizing. Service was very friendly and with a smile! The place was very busy and lively, which means it was loud, but the atmosphere was very congenial.

Two words: Corner Sandwich It is the best gyro EVER! Delicious lamb and beef with a great yogurt sauce. The pita is so soft and yummy. Their other Greek dishes are ok; pretty good, but not as good. They do a hefty take out business, but it's also nice to eat there. Good corner diner feel. It's run by the family, and there's something to be said for the staff actually speaking Greek to each other.

Greek Corner is fantastic...fantastic food, fantastic service and fantastic value. I love the gyro, and being a vegetarian, they always accommodate me and change the dish to meatless whenever I make the request. The waitstaff is very friendly and the prices are reasonable. This is the first place I'll go whenever I have a Greek food or tzatziki craving! Yum!

I married into a Greek family 25 years ago. This places stands up to the best of home-cooking. We've had a bit of everything from souvlaki, moussaka, pasticcio, dolmathes, salads, spanakopita, lamb - it all strikes home. We do takeout, then pretend we made it, without the two days of labor! Let's put it this way, I would take a native Greek to this place. 'nuff said.

A couple weeks ago while heading to Hana Sushi, we walked by the Greek Corner. You can smell the food from outside, and my mouth started to water. I grew up surrounded by Greek food and the aroma reminded me of being in the kitchen with Yia Yia and Pouli (my Greek grandparents). My Pouli was a chef, so he knew how to cook, and I knew how to eat. I think if he were still around he'd be very happy with the food served here, as it is a lot more authentic than what you can get in other places. And of course, the plates are piled high, as they should be! My meal was amazing, the vegetarian platter was overloaded with spanakopita, salad, stuffed grape leaves, hommus, falafel, and rice (you could also get fries). There was easily enough here for me to bring some home for leftovers, but I just couldn't stop eating. And when I mean I couldn't stop, I mean it. We also ordered some baklava for dessert. Amazing. The service was also great as it was actually pleasant and didn't come across forced in anyway. I cannot wait to come back, and maybe bring my Dad to see how he thinks it measures up. Something tells me he'll also get a little nostalgic and think back to the days spent in Yia Yia and Pouli's kitchen.

Let's face it, you will not come here propose to your girlfriend or have your graduation dinner, so all that really matters about this place is that the food is AWESOME. I live a block away and I have to fight myself from picking up dinner there every night. If I could just eat the warm buttery pitas that they wrap their sandwiches in all day, I probably would. The falafel, souvlaki, gyro, all are bomb. Oh and the hommus, the HOMMUS. I might have to put this place on speed dial because the store-bought crap does not hold up. I actually used to work at another Greek restaurant in the city and the Greek Corner wins by far. I mostly get take out, which they prepare really fast; they are usually done by the time I can walk over right after calling.

Keith M.

Dinner on a saturday night. Got in right away around 6, but it filled up quick. Parking is tough, but keep circling! I had Dolmades and Moussaka with some salad. The dolmades came out quick and chilled (my preference). The moussaka was a good size with just enough eggplant and beef. I wanted to order more, but that was enough for one visit.
(3)
Hilda W.

Ohhhh...Greek Corner! I said I would come back and try you again and I did. Boy, am I glad that I did. And this time I ordered correctly. We got the special lamb sandwich and an order of the Greek fries. Our waitress was friendly, though busy, which was an improvement over last time. That lamb sandwich was the best thing ever. The pita was crisp and hot, the tzaziki was delicious and the lamb was heaven. I was so worried that it would be tough or gristly, but it was tender and flavorful. The Greek fries were pretty good, but I think next time I will get just regular fries. So now I can't wait to go back and get another one of those lamb sandwiches. This is the stuff that dreams are made of.

Daniel G.

We've been going to this restaurant ever since it opened over 20 years ago when we lived in North Cambridge. It's our favorite restaurant. It's good Greek food, comfort food (if you grew up eating Greek food). Sure, it gets busy and the service can be uneven, but that's the price you pay for a popular spot. It's casual, good for families or couples. The appetizer plate is great if you can't decide which dips you want. Otherwise, get the tzatziki and/or eggplant dips. Fantastic! The baked lamb is great. We often get the souvlaki as well, although it can sometimes be overcooked. Just go!
(5)
Yvonne W.

Although my lovely is Chinese, when he wants yummy homey food, he always has a craving for Greek Corner, especially their baked lamb, which I also am in love with. The meat on the lamb shank is so moist and tender that it literally just falls off the bone when you poke it with your fork. No knife is needed. Just dig in! We've also had the moussaka here -- layers of eggplant, ground beef and potatoes with herbs and spices topped with a special Bechamel sauce. I usually don't think that much of eggplant unless it's prepared Chinese style (I think eggplant parmesan is gross -- Sichuan style eggplant is one of my favorite things in the world, next to Taiwan Cafe's basil eggplant), but this was very impressive. I found myself smiling afterwards thinking, wow, Greek Corner has made me like a different style of eggplant! Another time we came here, we had the swordfish kebabs, which we wouldn't get again because the fish was really dry. We've also had the Sampler Plate that included dolmadakia, tzatziki, taramosalata, spinach pie, hummus, tabouleh, feta cheese, eggplant salad and olives. You should definitely get this if you want an appetizer but are feeling indecisive about which to pick. We love the tzatziki here - it's creamy, yogurty, and has lots of dill in it! If there's one downside about this place, it's that it's a bit of a walk from the Porter T stop, and also that the service is pretty slow. The wait staff is always nice and friendly, but it's just that this place gets so crowded that at times there aren't enough waiters to go around.

I wish I could give one of the many glowing reviews of Greek Corner- but I just can't. But I'm pretty sure the fault is all mine for ordering something they do fairly well, as opposed to awesomely well, because a four-star Yelp rating doesn't lie, folks. I usually get the falafel plate with fries. I am crazy for neither the falafel nor the fries. The falafel is too hard, large, and dry for my taste, and the fries are weirdly sweet. The hummus and tabbouleh are good, but nothing spectacular. I like the salad, but that's probably because I'm nuts-o about feta cheese. Next time, I think I'll try the veg platter, or the feta melt, or spanikopita, or one of the many dishes that has been ethused over, because my dinner mates always seem to enjoy their various carniverous meals. Verdict: I'll be back, baby. Also, when I was there yesterday picking up some takeout with my boyfriend, the A/C seemed to be malfunctioning- it was spitting water all over the place. No one (included us) really minded, since it was so damn hot, but we saw this little kid position himself under a more steady drip of water leaking from the outside portion of the A/C. And he was DRINKING IT. Heh. Extremely amusing pre-dinner show! 5 stars for the coolant-laced water drinking child!

Greek Corner is for BALLERS! This place is great; my boyfriend brought me here the day after Valentines day for a post-romantic gyro . We enjoyed our meal very much. Our waitress was funny and not at all saccharine; when asked how she was doing, she replied, "God, I just can't wait to get out of here! I've been here since 10:30 this morning!" It was 9:30 PM, so we chuckled and left a big tip, because working in a restaurant for nearly 12 hours ain't a holiday. We started with the spinach pie (Spanakopitawhaaa?) and had scarfed it almost before the waitress set it down. We sat around lazily checking out the decor whilst waiting for our gyros, flagging down another waitress to ask for pita bread (we were starving; also, we are total fatties). Our gyros barely lasted 5 minutes. We rose from the table feeling satisfied but not overly stuffed, a sure sign of effective comfort food. The best part? Our meal barely hit the $20 mark. My boyfriend had enough $$ left over to buy me a Porsche.

Great gyros + plates. Friendly service. Bright, nicely decorated space. The mural whisks you away to the Mediterranean! Greek Corner is the perfect "cheap eats" spot. Yum! p.s. Get the Greek Fries!

We ate here last night, and I am pleased to recommend it. Because it was Friday night, there was a line at the door but they seated us without too much wait, even with a party of 12 ahead of us. The food arrived quickly and was delicious. The staff was friendly and accomodating and the prices were reasonable. This place is one of those rare jewels which you sometimes stumble across. If only it were easier to find parking in Cambridge.

The Greek Corner Restaurant is located on Mass Ave., conveniently across the street from where the bike path comes out. When you walk in the door, there's a sea-inspired theme painted on the wall which some might find cheesy...but hey, they're Greek, so I found it tasteful. And the restaurant is really clean, which is probably not an easy image to present say, between 6 & 8pm. I'm not a huge Greek food eater, but the food at this place is so good. I got the falafel sandwich with fries. The sandwich had just the right amount of warm hummus. The fries are quite rectangular with a sweet tinge to them. I tried my girlfriend's avgolemono (egg-lemon soup with rice), and you could actually taste the lemon, though the soup was still sweet enough. And their spanakopita was perfectly flaky, with the right amount of spinach. The waitress didn't take too long to take down our order even during this busy time, which was nice. And the server didn't patronize me when I asked for ketchup and he had just set it down right in front of my face. The only real reason I dock a star is because, when we arrived, sure it was busy. And sure there were no tables available, and sure the staff was running around. But there were a couple of people up front, and if they'd just taken the time to say, "It's gonna be at least five or ten minutes," that would have been good. But no one really said anything until we were ushered to our table, and we felt kind of stupid just standing there and looking around. And the acoustics kind of suck...it can get really loud and I feel like I'm hearing all of the customers ten-fold. Other than that, it was all good -- savory food, and the employees for the most part really have a well-oiled machine running there. I'd definitely go back again.

Best Greek food in the Boston area. Live this place. It is a real neighborhood place and can get really crowded. They are not in a hurry to seat you, serve you, or get rid of you. Very relaxed and really delicious. Try pastitsio, calamari, chicken gyro, and rice pudding.

Fios is great... The service that I didn't like much. I wait a little too long to be sited, but I enjoy the greatest hummus salad ever...

Good Greek food, one of the better ones, portions are not that huge but okay for the price. I would go back if I'm in the area but maybe not out of the way. Greek fries were awesome, had that for the first time and would definitely get them again. The vegetarian appetizer sampler had good variety, very fresh. The spinach pie was not very good (cold and dry), rest everything was good on the plate. The gyro and the roast lamb were both quite good. The meat was well cooked and properly spiced. RECOMMENDED!

Have eaten here several times in the past few months, and have never had a bad meal. Great falafel, hummus and babaganoush are solid as well. Atmosphere is nice and staff is very friendly, feels family-run but I could be wrong on that. My only complaint- they don't fire up the saganaki and give it the traditional 'opa!' treatment (if you've ever ordered saganaki, you probably know what I mean). It's still a good dish, but feels a little lacking without that little extra. Definitely recommend trying it, very reasonably priced and good to satisfy a greek food craving.

Last night I was struck by a hardcore craving for gyros, to which I immediately Yelped the word and was drawn to this page. Jesus... I just came back from this place, I'm stuffed, and even writing this review is making my mouth salivate for delicious gyro goodness. So obviously, I recommend trying a gyro... but that isn't all that is tasty! Try an order of the spanakopita, listed as 'Spinach Pie'" Its pretty big but it isn't all that heavy, so don't be afraid if you don't think you have a big stomach. (still salivating) Finally, as I left I ordered some baklava for the road. I didn't want to get my hopes up for it, because the rest of the meal was so good, and I figured it couldn't be all great.. Its the reason this became a 5 start rating instead of a 4. It was so perfect, I considered leaving my girlfriend on the side of the road so I could finish her half. And the best part? 2 meals, an appetizer, and desert... 25 bucks.

I like! Very nice! I had the chicken souvlaki sandwich. Rich yogurt sauce, fresh and tender chicken, and of course the prerequisite Saracha. Cheap and quick with friendly service. A must if you're hungry but on the go.

Sunny S.

Best Greek neighborhood place in all of Cambridge. From apps (avoglomeno soup and stuffed grape leaves) to sandwiches (gyros) to platters (veggie or meaty combos), everything is fresh and excellent! The service is always a little "slow" or Mediterranean-speed, so don't go if you want to rush through the meal and get on to see a show. Save that kind of eat-and-run for Harvard Sq's Greek Corner II place near Charlie's Kitchen -- same great sandwiches and yogurt-garlic sauce but greasier gyros and paper wraps instead of porcelain plates.

I love you Greek Corner. Thank you for existing. I came on a Friday night with a big group of gals and we only had to wait a few minutes for a table. Service was fast and the tables had cute paper place mats of Greece. After reading all the raving reviews for the gyro, I order the gyro sandwich with Greek fries. The gyro was AMAZING. Almost our whole table got one and we all loved it! The Greek fries were nothing special...just normal fries with parmesan cheese and some herbs on top. One thing to keep in mind: after stuffing your face with delicious Greek food, you will smell like it afterward. Even after brushing your teeth and your tongue, the garlic and onion taste and smell will still linger. Probably not the best thing to eat before going to a bar and trying to meet people (like we did). Even a few cold beers didn't wash down the taste. But, let's be honest....it was so worth it!

Rebecca S.

LOVE Greek Corner! It's one of our favorite local haunts. With a chef-husband, we're not super-easy to please...but we never leave unhappy when we eat here, which is generally a few times a month. We generally get to-go, as it's a little more restful to eat at home, as it can get a little noisy later in the day, but nothing beats having a heavenly gyro with a cold Mythos on a hot summer evening. Greek fries are a MUST too... My mother insists on eating here at least twice when she visits- we'd never be forgiven if we skipped it. The seasoning is just right- they're not afraid of garlic, and cook their meats to a point of doneness where everything is still juicy and flavorful. YUM. Another reason to love North Cambridge.

After returning from a vacation to Greece, my friend had a hankering for some stateside Greek, so we headed over to Greek Corner after reading all the positive reviews on Yelp. We weren't disappointed at all -- extremely friendly staff and excellent, authentic Greek. What, you were looking for something else? If you've only ever had falafel from places that don't specialize in Greek, just forget about whatever salty impression you've got of the stuff and get the falafel here. The Grape Leaves they serve at Greek Corner are the best I've ever had. Anywhere. Great grape leaves have a taste that's unlike any other meal I've ever had, and whatever it is, Greek Corner's got it nailed. My friend and I made a deal -- I'd give her one of my grape leaves in exchange for her souvlaki. I tried her souvlaki (cooked perfectly)... and then she said she was too full to try my grape leaves. SCORE. The Galaktoboureko we had for dessert was fabulous, and was gone within about 15 seconds. Real plate-licking stuff. The waitress dealt very patiently with our attempts to pronounce it before smiling and setting the record straight (how many times a day must she have to do that?). For Greek in Boston, make the trip out to Greek Corner. So worth it.

If you're hoping to have the gyro sandwich made with fresh lamb and beef slices as featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives (as we were), it would be wise to call ahead first. It is a special, not part of their regular menu. The waiter told us it appears on the special board as "traditional gyro" and is made a couple times a week, although there are no set days. We were there on a Sunday and had missed it by a day - so disappointed! Instead we had the Corner's Special Gyro (made with typical gyro meat - ground meats formed into a tube, put on a vertical rotisserie and sliced) and the Corner's Special Souvlaki. Both were delicious but not what we had been looking forward to. Hope to return someday for their "traditional" gyro!

Drove waaaay out of the way to come to dinner here because of the great reviews. And you know what? The reviews were very accurate. The place is really cute, kind of small, but not so small that you're sitting on top of the next person. Anyway, we started with the FRIED CALAMARI for an appetizer, which was delicious. Since I am terrible with decisions, I was debating between the CHICKEN KEBAB vs the SWORDFISH KEBAB. So the waiter made it simple and suggested half and half. Perfect!!!! My husband and the PORK SOUVLAKI and he literally was in heaven. He doesn't eat pork, but souvlaki is his only only exception. :) Best of all, the prices are great. Parking sucks though.

I have always grown up living around Greek restaurants... Went to school up the street from there and work in the area. I have driven by this place time after time. I ordered their lamb skewers and had their beef and lamb gyro. I must say their food is amazing. Their french fires are fresh.. Not frozen.... Having had feta cheese at many places theirs is the best I have ever tasted in my life... I don't know if they got the animal in the kitchen... because that is how fresh the feta was.. I am having this tomorrow.. mmmmmm Greek is great!!!

Irene, and her co-workers, treated us really well for my wife's birthday celebration. Wanted a meal that would cater for the varying tastes of my family and friends....Greek Corner Restaurant didn't disappoint. They even brought out a birthday rice pudding cake topped with a candle! We had the sampler plate and 2 calamaris for starters that was more than enough for our party of 6. The main courses were ample. Nothing was too much. Extra pitta bread was supplied, and even though my lamb shank dish came with the wrong accompaniment, Irene brought the correct one almost immediately and left the original. The red house wine recommendation was very good. Many thanx for recommendation from fellow reviewers. We may not have gone to this wonderful restaurant, had it not been for you.

I'd passed by this place several times and never stopped or thought twice of it. Enter the Duke. That's right, none other than Massachusetts own Michael Dukakis...in fact, this is a long story but I'll cut it short. The Duke had a catered speaking engagement. I was there. Greek Corner was the caterer. The offerings were delicious. I've been falling all over myself to get here ever since. I'd peg the decor as cozy kitsch. There's a mural of some idyllic Greek Island on the wall with seven people on it. Don't ask me how I know it's seven, or why I cared in the first place. There's a hutch in the rear of the largest part of the dining room whose shelves are bowing under the weight of several bottles of Greek wine. The place is family friendly and as Class Act noted, maybe a little too close to Arlington. The menu is straightforward so we got to business with a saganaki appetizer, gyro and lamb souvlaki combos. The saganaki appetizer wasn't exactly saganaki as I remembered it. This was more a dish of melted flaming cheese. My saganaki, of delicious memory, held form when grilled or fried. I didn't let that detail stop me from eating it though. The gyro was delightfully seasoned and the lamb souvlaki was grilled to perfection, not overly dry or charred. The salad accompanying one combo plate was limp and pitiful but the fries accompanying the other? Piping hot and crispylicious. The taramosalata was creamy, lemony and salty and provided a great dipping sauce for my fries. The service was marginal. Our wait was about 15 minutes. The place was packed, but several people who were seated after we were received their dinners before we did despite the fact that we'd only ordered two sandwiches fries and a salad. We had no room for dessert, but weren't disappointed. When your belly is filled with deliciousness who cares from whence it came? We now have the perfect equation for a dinner for two with room for dessert, one sandwich combo with fries, one sandwich... DESSERT! Better luck next time.

Great , Great, Great food but...............................................Â..I went there with 8 people in my party...I have to start by saying I love greek food and went there by the score of the yelpers...........There was yelper on here last week who said he waited 15 min standing at the front enterance and was ignored before leaving and going to a place called franks down the street. He said that the staff was just rude and did not even recognize they where standing there. This past sunday I received the same welcoming. There was plenty of seating and the girl who works there "short with I believe a pony tail...dark hair" looked like she could have cared less to seat us. She honestly looked like she has a attitude. Could it be that she has worked there so long that she does not care to greet people happily ??? I was not the only person who noticed as it was discussed by us all after we left. I can tell you would go back because the food was so dam good. I think the owners or management are working in the kitchen and they need to know that something is going on at the front enterance of there buissness. I see you have been there along time but I feel that this issue should be taken care of. I'd suggest a host/hostess to handle everyone coming through the door and not rely on the waitress or waiter to set tables or deal with the customers coming through the doors.Again............awesome food !!!...............Its just leaves a bad taste in my mouth to be treated like crap when I first walk into a place of buissness. Ps --Our waitress was not the one who set the table and took us over to it...It was another young lady (taller ) and she did a superb job !!! The tip reflected that to her credit !!!

The best Greek food that I've had next to my family's homemade! The only downside is the spinach pie portions are rather small and they never have the wine I want despite listing it on the menu.. I usually get the Octopus Salad, Gyro, lamb tips, sampler platter, and the Egg Lemon Soup. All real good.

Kai M.

Pretty good Greek place. Authentic Greek, quality ingredients, homey feel. I had the gyro and a bunch of appetizers etc. The apps were delicious, but I was surprised by gyro. I've had better gyros from sub shops, not to mention at the Greek Festival in Arlington( a must if you're a fan of Greek). Overall, a nice, cozy, delicious restaurant.

If you want large portions of traditional Greek food in Boston, then the Greek Corner is the place to go. Casual atmosphere, decently priced, and has a large variety of Greek plates. Closest T stop is Davis Square, about a 10-15 minute walk from there. Only went there once at the end of my senior year, but I wish I discovered it sooner. It was worth the hike from BU.

Tessa H.

Greek Corner is AMAZING!! I love it. I only do take out there, but have been meaning to dine in. The chicken and lamb kebabs are delicious and I always get the appetizer sampler which has amazing different types of hummus, dolmathakia (grape leaves), the best spanakopita I've ever ead and more delicious stuff. The pita bread you get with it is fresh baked and always warm and soft. The portions are giant and I always have leftovers. I haven't tried everything on the menu, but I highly recommend any of their kebab dinners or their gyros (I get them with chicken) as well as their grape leaf dinners. Go to the Greek Corner and you will not only not be sorry, you will be delighted.

Heather C.

er....4.5 stars? We stopped in to this place after seeing it on Diners Drives Ins and Dives. It was awesome. Husband said it was the best gyro he ever had (and it was indeed tasty) and I ordered the Pastitso which is almost like a greek lasagna. I wasn't too thrilled about mine but I had never had the dish before and nothing to compare, plus I got a corner piece without much meat at all. Salad was awesome and we also ordered a side of tzatziki to dip pita in and it was soooo good. It's been well over a year since we last visit and have been meaning to go back. The ambiance is nothing special but that's not what you go for.

Dawn E.

I am deeply enamored of Greek Corner. It's super cheap and delicious to the extreme. The vegetarian platter is a great value with its array of Mediterranean delights, and it helps that everything on it is SO. GOOD. I have to say I'm kind of suspicious about how they get their grape leaves to be so perfect. Are they witches? In that case, GC, I am under your spell.

Mina O.

We heard about Greek Corner on Food Network (Diners, Drive-In & Dives) and we had to try it! The food was fantastic but I'm giving them 3 stars because our service was horrible. Which ruined the experience for us. There were people around us that sat down the same time as we did and some cases after us. They were served before us, finished their meals & paid for their check before we even got our food. We asked our waitress a couple times and she kept telling us it was coming up. Personally, I think she forgot to put our order in. 45 mins later we finally got our food. Our waitress didn't even apologize for the wait. Even though our meal was absolutely delicious (gyro, moussaka & beef kabob), I'm hesitant in going back. Maybe our server had a bad night. Who knows, but whatever the reason is - still unacceptable. At minimum, apologize for the wait.

If I could eat in only one restaurant for the rest of my life, this would be it. Their swordfish kabobs are awesome, falafel delicious, gyro juicy and flavorful, and the appetizers are fantastic. If you like Greek food, you need to come to this place!

Eric Y.

I frequent Greek Corner about once every 2 months or so and really enjoy the food here every time. I usually order the same thing (appetizer sampler and gyro plate) and always satisfied at the end of the meal. Service at times can be slow if its busy, but overall a great experience-home-style Greek cooking in a causal atmosphere. Best Greek food I found in the local area and will keep returning!

jerry b.

we came here on a weekday nite so the place wasn't crowded but I still had a rushed feeling as we gave our drink order while we looked at the menu. the young lady asked if we were ready to order. when she brought our drinks she asked again. we ordered an app, the saganaki, love it & in our fave down in nj they lite in front & every one in the place shouts "ooopah". we ordered our food which came quickly & was great. My wife couldn't finish her gyro, & i had a tough time finishing my sausage meal. I didn't care for the salad being on the same plate as the meal so next time I will ask for separate plate. There is no parking lot, we were kicked out of the lot next door even tho bank was closed. according to the attendant it belong to another restaurant about 4 or 5 blocks down the street. order 2 gyros to go a few days later w/extra dressing on the side, superb.

Jamie N.

Are you hungry? Get ready for this. Climb the stairs to Greek Corner, rain or shine, and order yourself a SOUVLAKI PLATE. Get the fries or the rice with it, either way will be TASTY. Have some tziki on the side to dip your meat and pita into. The same dude behind the counter will always be there. He's quick with the orders and the change (and make sure you have ACTUAL change, because this place does not take cards). Wash it all down with an icy cold Coke from the mini-fridge next to the counter, and OPA! - you're in a taverna in Athens. Only minus the noise from speeding "motos" (Vespas) and the salivation of stray cats and dogs. Instead, you can check out that creepy puppet show guy across the street in front of Bertucci's, or take your food away with you and do some of your own salivating in private. Mmmm...MEAT.

Susie C.

Fantastic. Inexpensive. Great for take-out or eating in. I usually do take-out because I use them mainly after a long day at work when I'm too tired to cook. I love, love, love the sqordfish kabob dinner, the chicken kabob dinner, the liquid heaven avoglemano soup, and the greek salad. Most dinner platters some with their yummy yellow rice and a huge scoop of salad, plus pita bread, which I always use to make tiny swordfish sandwiches with a little rice, salad, and fish... then roll it up and mmm.. so good. Plus, really good greek beer, and a truly awesome appetizer-to-share sampler that comes with a mix of all things delicious that you dip your pita bread into and hope you don't spill all over yourself. Totally recommended, and I feel lucky to live right around the corner.

If I lived closer to Greek Corner, I might be in danger of going there every day. It's a small family-owned business, and the folks who work there are extremely overworked, though you'd never know it to talk to them. They're friendly and professional, and very warm. We love the low-key atmosphere, the completely reasonable prices, and even the open seating. We have taken countless out-of-town visitors and local friends there--of all types of foody allegiances--and everyone's loved it. When we got married, we kept saying that if were were marrying in Boston, we totally would have had them host our rehearsal dinner. They're that fun, and that good. (I think they might offer some catering, but I'm not sure.) The food! It's amazing. As someone with more than a few weird food allergies, I love that Greek Corner's foods are relatively unadorned...if you order chicken, it's basically grilled chicken marinated in a touch of lemon and basic spices...and yet each dish is so tasty as to suggest a ton of ingredients. Everything is fresh, and you can see into the kitchen from the front desk, so...they've got nothing to hide, I guess! As for what to order, it's hard for me to stray from my favorite items, though I do vary my menu on occasion: chicken gyro sandwich is amazing, and unlike others I like their Greek salad a lot. (NB: Once in a while they'll use what tastes like a prepared salad dressing, which I hate but my husband likes; usually it's the homemade kind, my preference. You be the judge!) Hummus is incredible, a bit more liquidy and garlicky than other places. Love it. If you go late on a very busy night, sometimes you'll even get the gyro wrap bread instead of the traditional pita (if they run out of regular pita), and that stuff is like food of the gods. Spanakopita is excellent and decadent but not greasy, really packed with flavor, but not too much cheese. Also love the spanakopita plate, which comes with a salad and a side--the Greek fries are just okay in my opinion (don't like lemon on my fries), but the regular fries are unapologetically yummy. What else? My husband loves the lamb gyro and/or lamb plate (sorry, Lambchop!), but if you get this, be sure to ask for the roasted lamb, as the other kind of lamb (grilled, maybe?) is not as flavorful. I'm allergic to nuts but the hubby also swears by their baklava. Guests we've brought have loved the avgolemono soup, very traditional, as well as the steak tips and pork chops. It's a great place to go with vegetarians since there are so many tasty choices. Here's another tip: if it's too late/rainy/whatever to go out, you can easily call ahead and pick up (usually takes no more than ten minutes), or if you're within range diningin-dot-com will deliver, though you should beware, because diningin charges you more for each item than Greek Corner does. Something else: notice that after-hours you can park on the wall-side of the bank parking lot just past Greek Corner. Sometimes it's tough to find a spot on the street. All in all, my favorite food-spot in the Boston area. Enjoy!!

We went here after reading all of the other great Yelp reviews and we were pleasantly surprised. The wait staff were extremely pleasant, the food was delicious and the prices were very reasonable. I had the chicken gyro and my wife had the beef and lamb combo gyro and both were amazing. The only drawback is that we started with the falafel appetizer and the falafels appeared to be glazed with something and were rather tough and dry (maybe this is just a different way of cooking them - I have always had them much softer). The rest of the appetizer plate was delicious tough.

Were it not for yelp, I would never have touched this place. One look at it makes you wonder whether you've died and woken up in 1970 when this was an exotic European diner. Though the decor hasn't aged well, the ingredients are timeless: outstanding food, at a cheap price with friendly, if occasionally slow service. I've made this my new favorite place for a lazy Sunday lunch. The comfort food and laid back vibe makes it a perfect place to hang out with friends and forget that tomorrow is Monday.

I hate to give such a bad review but I tried this place a couple of times now after reading the reviews and I have to say the people giving this place three or more stars have to have had their taste buds removed or just have no clue what real Greek food tastes like. Everything was of fast food quality, never again. Sorry

My wife, daughter, and I visited there today after a six year hiatus. We used to go there all the time in the 90s when it first opened. The food is just as good as it was back then. The lemon soup, feta, chicken gyro, and butterfly shrimp dinner were all great. Make sure you leave room for the Baklava. And very reasonable prices. My only complaint was that it was a little cold inside, but this is more a criticism of Boston in March than the restaurant itself. Warm up, baby!

An awesome little gem ! Simple decor, friendly service, and delicious food, all at bargain prices, what more can you ask for ? Try this family owned restaurant for a relaxed lunch, enjoy the fabulous egg lemon soup, indulge in the amazing gyros, and don't forget the home made baklava before you leave. Speed of service is average. Prices are low. This little jewel has been a perennial fave.

You want the best Greek food near Boston...well you'll find it here at the Greek Corner!. I have been dining here for nearly 20 years and I have NEVER had a bad meal. Always fantastic! The grilled chicken Gyro is a must! Save room for the Baklava...just too yummy!

We had a craving for gyros and were pleased to find the Greek Corner nearby for lunch. The gyros were fantastic with warm pita bread, fresh veggies, savory lamb, and just the right amount of tzatziki sauce. We also tried the Greek fries which are sprinkled with lemon juice, oregano, and cheese. The friendly service was a little slow to take orders but our food was delivered fairly quickly. Overall a great local spot for fresh Greek food.

I go wild for this place. You cannot beat the appetizer sampler platter for 2 (what's in it? Who cares- it's awesome) and the House Special Gyro. Holy crap, that gyro is good. It has the most delicious garlic sauce on it that I've ever had. Not sure what another reviewer was talking about with the ground meat- when I've gone it has been slices of lovely, succulent lamb, but I haven't been there in a couple of months. I hope they haven't changed the sandwich given the stupid economy. :( And the prices are oh-so-right.

Good solid Greek food that's never disappointed me. Why the hell aren't there more restaurants like this?

NAWWWWWW, JK!!!! this place is fantastic. fan-friggin-tastic. the food was delicious, the service was great, and it's cute. way cute. definitely go for the sampler platter. and i know it may not be the most authentic, but how cool is it that they have a veggie gyro? yeah, pretty damn cool.

Their food is SO good and the prices are totally reasonable and the service has always been timely and friendly. I love this place! They gyros are awesome, the greek salad is great, the grape leaves and moussaka are also wonderful. I haven't had anything here that I didn't like. Awesome!

I actually created my Yelp account for the sole purpose of giving this restaurant a poor review after seriously shabby service. We ordered delivery from Greek Corner via Mix Menu. We ordered two salads and some Greek fries, but when we received our food there was no dressing with our salads. We immediately called Mix Menu and when they were of no help we phoned Greek Corner directly. I understand that their food is delivered through a 3rd party delivery company, but that does mean that they shouldn't take accountability for their service or their product. After I politely explained to the manager what had happened he told me that dressing is put on the salad unless otherwise noted. I explained to him that I understood this, but that I was holding two bone dry salads. Instead of apologizing in any way, he proceeded to argue with me that there was dressing on the salad as if I was an idiot for not being able to understand this. I repeated that I understood their process but that there was no dressing on our salads. He then told me that I could complain to Mix Menu, but that it really wasn't their problem. Needless to say we were very disappointed in this service. Not only did we not receive any dressing, the salads were really small and overpriced especially for their size. You can definitely do better from your average Greek neighborhood pizza spot. Even though I was excited to see other very authentic Greek food on the menu like Tsatziki and Dolmathes we will not be ordering from this place again after this experience.

It's cheap and alright, but i wouldn't go out of my way for this place. I got the gyros platter. It was fine, much like one gets on most any corner in NYC. But I'm no expert, so read the other reviews.

I've been eating at the Greek Corner off-and-on for years, and I still think it's the best value-quality option in Cambridge. The food is excellent, the portions are generous (but not obscene) and the service is always friendly. Sometimes the kitchen is a little slow so don't go there if you don't want a leisurely meal. Overall, it's terrific.

My best friend growing up was Greek, so I've have the great fortune of spending several months in Greece eating food made by a real-life Greek yaya (as in grandma). This place comes pretty close to the real deal. Julie, one of the waitresses, is a perfect complement to the no-nonsense atmosphere. She's pretty hilarious if you get her started...

Solid Greek chow. Service is efficient and friendly. I've heard this place gets packed, but for a quick weekend lunch it's good.

how can you not love goerge and his employees 4 stars? they work hard, they have very reasonable prices and the food is consistently good. its not epic, but its always good. the atmosphere is very budget but i prefer it as long as the prices are fare. they have good vegetarian and even vegan options and are always friendly. it doesnt look like it but they do serve beer and wine and their tzatziki is the best i have had in boston. i even brought some to my 85 year old grandmother from greece and she loves it. this place is better for lunch than dinner. if i had to drive out to it, i probably wouldnt go, but if you can walk, hit it and hit it often! PS - it really helps to know what to order... for example, i stay away from the swordfish kabobs... i dont think they get turned over enough... not so sure how the fish is...

Mc I.

Love the Greek Corner. Cheap, fast, pretty murals on the wall, delcious tzatziki. They did give me the wrong meat in my gyro once, but when I told them they quickly whipped up exactly what I ordered and let us keep the other gyro free of charge, so I can't complain.

A cute, casual place with a friendly feel. Service staff were kind and helpful. Affordable prices. The galaktoboureko for dessert was awesome! I'll be going back for sure. ...Parking may not be easy to find the first time around. And hopefully you won't get seated too near the door when it's cold out. There's only so much a curtain can do.

love this place. food is amazing- by far the best greek I've had in the area. Last time we did take out we ended up waiting awhile. I was starting to get upset, but the guy included baklava for free as an apology for making us wait. completely redeemed it in my opinion and I definitely plan to go back

Adrienne B.

I love this place. My boyfriend used to live on Dudley St. so it was super convienent to pick up a quick meal here when we couldnt' think of anything else. You have to like Greek Food to like this place though cause its all they have. The greek salads are amazing and the dressing is really garlicy so be prepared to smell like it when you're done eating. The hummus is great, the calamari is great, the chicken kabobs are moist and tasty- its all good. The staff are very sweet and the food comes up fast. Definitely check it out!

I was looking for a laid back spot to have lunch with an old friend, and this one turned out to be perfect! The food was delicious, the service very attentive and kind and it was a great overall experience. I enjoyed the specialty sandwich with lamb that I ordered. And my favorite part was a European style iced coffee which was fantastic!

I'm writing this off of memory, but I do remember a really delicate yet flavorful pastitio served with a side of salad and some bread. A worthy little corner restaurant. I wasn't as impressed with the salad as fellow reviewers seemed to be.

This is my go to place when I'm craving a gyro sandwich and fries. I always browse the menu, feeling guilty that I should really branch out on the menu as I normally would at any restaurant...but who am I kidding, my heart (and stomach) know why we're here: the gyro plate. Luckily, I've split some tasty apps with my wife: both the sample plate (says for 2 but could easily accommodate 4) and the saganaki (flaming cheese!) are delicious. Also, a quick head's up that service can be a little slow here, but always friendly.
(4)
Particular P.

The falafel was interesting, crunchy that was unexpected, I don't pretend to be a falafel connoisseur, but I wasn't a huge fan. Gyro was simply amazing, and cheap so a huge win there. The spinach pie was average but again cheap. The atmosphere great and the place smells amazing. If you live in the neighborhood this a great place but not a destination stop.

Tim S.

I have heard only good things about this place and was not disappointed. We stopped in for lunch and had the lemon soup and Greek corner gyro. The soup was richly flavored and the gyro was heavenly with well flavored lamb and beef on a pita with lettuce, tomato and yogurt.

Two awful Chinese restaurants later my whole family said lets just go to the Greek corner. Why? Because it's always good. Every time. Nice people, good food, convenient.

Jamie G.

This is my fiance's favorite place ever. He always gets the gyro meal- which includes a gyro in a soft pita, a greek salad which is fantastic, and some rice pilaf dealy. I like the gyros. I have also had the vegetarian plate, which was not my favorite. I would give them 5 stars, but I like the food from the campus trolley by BU better (Which may not be saying as much for my taste- but I think it is awesome.) They are great for eat in or take out. Prices are quite fair/ modest!
(4)
Iannis R.

We were raised on this stuff, so we're hard to impress, I expect the best Greek fare, and nothing less. The service is friendly, warm and nice For good Greek food you can't beat the price. The gyro is good, the saganaki is flaming The retsina is strong (and almost laming). We suggest you order the vegetarian plate It's enough to feed you and also your date.

This place is exactly what I wanted it to be. I saw it on Food Network, made the trip (a few times), and was thoroughly pleased. And while I guess it's technically neither a diner, drive-in, or dive, it *is* just like the family-style Greek restaurants ("Coney Islands") I grew up with around the Detroit area. It's not fancy pants Greek. It's a plate of salad and rice and a heap of some sort of delicious, roasted meet. The gyro meat is fantastic. The lamb souvlaki is perfectly seasoned. The moussaka was everything I could've hoped for. And the baked lamb is fall-off-the-bone tender and covered in delicious sauce. The prices are fair, the service is just fine and on a Sunday you can find parking on one of the side streets off Mass Ave. For me, on a cool Fall night, there's something about a plate of hearty Americanized Greek food that just can't be beat. I've only tried one appetizer (the saganaki). Sadly, it fell a bit short and I've identified why. Back home at every Greek place I'd visit, the saganaki comes to the table on a heated iron skillet. It's then ignited ('opa!') at the table, and stays oozy, melty good until the end. The reason it stays that way is the skillet. At the Greek corner, the cheese comes in a tiny metal tray and very quickly congeals into a block. Not so good. But whatever. I can look past it for the wonderfulness that is the rest of the menu. Speaking of which, try the galaktoboureko - it sounds like a Marvel comics villain, but it's DELICIOUS. An amazing, flakey, honey, creamy, custardy pile of dessert deliciousness. Anyway, thanks Greek Corner, for giving me a little taste of my Mindwestern roots here in New England.

Nicole A.

YUM YUM YUM YUM. My favorite restaurant around Davis Square. So nice to go sit and and relax, be teased by the friendly Greek staff, be served your drink with a big "opa!" The sampler appetizer is great when you're with a lot of people, and I always order the Mousaka. Perfectly rich and creamy, and laden with eggplant and meat. The gyros are great too. And-- this means a lot coming from a Lebanese girl who resents the Greeks for misrepresenting baclava as Hellenic cuisine-- I have to say theirs is great.

I ordered a Gyro and it was pretty good. I've had some delicious Gyros in Athens, so I might be a little skewed, but my entire experience at Greek Corner was really just OK. I would definitely recommend that this place is worth a trip. Everyone I've known has recommended it to me.

It's not fancy, but holy smokes is it yummy - reliably yummy. We must have had take-out from here once a week once we discovered it. Lamb - awesome. Gyro platter - awesome. Chicken kabobs - yum. Even the rice is really good. If you like meaty-goodness, this is your spot.

Absolutely LOVE this place. From the salads, the lentil soup, lamb, and pita are the best around! Definitely authentic Greek food made with love!!!

Summary: Mediocre food and careless/disengaged wait staff. Don't bother. Details Cleanliness: Grade C- Table/chairs had rice from previous diners still on it. I did not visit the restroom, so I cannot comment on the cleanliness of that space. Service: C+ Waitstaff did bare minimum for a sit-down restaurant. She literally slammed the appetizer plate down on the table. She did not ask once during the meal how everything was (she did ask at the end). Also, we were seated near the window into the kitchen (dishwashing?) area and at one point, one of the big plastic basins came flying out, landing on the floor near my dining companion. Classy. Food: C Spanakopita appetizer-phyllo pastry was quite soggy, not crisp as it should have been; spinach filling had discernible hints of dill/mint. Moussaka plate w/side salad and rice pilaf - salad had at least two wilted/decomposing lettuce leaves (all cheap iceberg) in it; tomato was nearly unripe and undoubtedly flavorless. Best part of salad was the block of feta on top of it. Moussaka was bland - the meat layers lacked expected seasoning of cinnamon and allspice and did not seem to have any sauce at all. The best part of it was the bechamel sauce on top, which was quite creamy and rich. Rice pilaf was overcooked and also bland--the main seasoning being salt.

Caleb L.

Such a great place for takeout but also excellent for sit down dining. Plenty of room, the food is cheap and very good for the price. I recommend you get the sampler appetizer at least once to try the taramosalata, which is basically a carp roe-based dip served with pita bread that is absolutly delicious. To be fair, it's not the best greek food I've ever had (that would be at The Aegean in Framingham) but it's still wicked good.
(5)
Deanna D.

The appetizer sampler w/ dolmathakia, tsatziki, taramosalata, spinach pie,hommus, tabouleh, feta cheese, eggplant salad and olives--Perfect way to start a meal! The taramosalata (Red caviar blend) is AMAZING!! The Falafel pita wrap with side of lemon soup- Delicious and filling for only $9.25! The Corner Special Gyro, Moussaka, and Combo Vegetarian Plate are a few of my other favorites. Delicious and authentic food, friendly and attentive service, and amazing value makes Greek Corner one of my "go to" place for a great meal!

While the service here has never been its strong suit, the food here is excellent. I've been going here for years. When I worked in Harvard Square, I went to Greek Corner II. Yesterday was the last time I will be going here, however, because the service here is just terrible. We tried to get lunch yesterday, it wasn't at all crowded, the lunch crowd was wrapping up. We were seated almost immediately, and then...we waited. We tried to flag down a waitperson, but were ignored. We asked a busboy to get us some attention, and...waited. After about fifteen minutes, we decided to leave. One waitress asked, not nicely, what the problem was. I explained that we had been ignored and kept waiting long enough. "For five minutes!!!" she said with a sneer and an eyeroll. We left. We'll stick with The Aegean in Watertown.

It's been my pleasure on multiple occasions to visit the Greek Corner. My only complaint is that it's never the seven minute walk from Porter Square that I think it is (in reality, it's a fifteen minute walk from Porter and about a ten minute walk from Davis). But I never mind, because after the walk, the food is great. The souvlaki sandwich with lamb is tasty--it's got the right amount of meat and plenty of that delicious yogurt sauce. It's $6.95 and completely filling. I also recommend the sampler plate (to share as an appetizer, or as a dinner item for one person). It has dolmathakia (stuffed grape leaves), tsatziki (that delicious yogurt sauce), a caviar-blend thing that sounds weird but tastes great, spinach pie, hommus, tabouleh, feta cheese, eggplant salad, and olives. Very tasty and satisfies all your varied Greek food cravings at $10.95. I've also had the rice pudding ($3.25), which was excellent. All in all, a great place. Recommended for: Cheap but tasty dinners or lunches out, take-out, and groups/families.

Greek food done right, the Greek Corner has it all. Stopped in on Saturday afternoon and got Gyro's to go and they were wonderful. The pita was delicious. Went back this afternoon and ate in the restaurant. Nice, old school and great food. The sampler platter was a great mixture of appetizers, served with fresh pita bread. The tabouli salad was especially tasty. We had the lamb souvlaki and the lamb shish kabob. Both were delicious. Juicy, well seasoned. Loved it. The young waiter and waitress couldn't have been any nicer.

Normally food does not inspire me to take pictures, but after getting take-out from Greek Corner last night, I just had to. I had heard about the restaurant and driven past it about a million times in my 4 years here. But I had never gone in. Once entering the restaurant, it is much larger and nicer than it appears from the outside. I'm not saying it looks horrible from the outside, but it looks like a tiny, tiny place (or least I had always thought that). It was nearing 9:00 P.M., so there was no way I was going home to cook something. Enter Greek Corner. I was being indecisive, so I decided on the sampler platter for two (but without olives - love olive oil, hate olives). This contains: dolmathakia, tsatziki, taramosalata, spinach pie, hommus, tabouleh, feta cheese, eggplant salad for the indecisive person who wants to try a bit of everything. I swear the container they gave me weighed a few pounds. Look at the picture I posted. I asked if it came with pita, and I got a mountain (again, see picture). I got all of this for $10 (and I have at least 2 more meals out of it in the fridge). The food was delicious - quality and quantity, a huge plus! The spinach pie was not the best I've ever had (just with it had a bit more feta/salt), but that's just personal preference, and it was by no means bad, just a bit different. On top of this, since the food in the plate is cold, it took just minutes to get my food. The staff was also friendly and we chatted about the unavailability of peanut butter in countries like Brasil. I'll definitely be back!

As a vegetarian, I'm constantly struggling to find veggie-friendly eateries and restaurants. As a new college grad, I've been deprived of food with flavor for the past 4 years. Thankfully I'm in the right place for both of those requirements. And Greek Corner fits the bill. The people who work there are actually really accommodating - I went in once and asked them to make me a pita wrap with grape leaves, feta, lettuce, etc. (not on the menu) and they completely obliged! I've gone with other friends who have enjoyed the restaurant equally as much. The ones who do eat meat have not been able to stop talking about the gyros. And such good baklava too!

Went back recently. Food still awesome, service a little slow this time. But servers were pleasant and apologetic. Still love it!

Ido W.

The bottom line: Old-fashioned family style unassuming restaurant that is very reasonably priced. I will come back. The Pro's: The baked lamb and baklava were excellent. The service is very pleasant. The food is cheap. The con's: The salad platter is not the best we've had. If the salads were better partitioned on the plate that may make it better. The lamb suflake was not very good either. Not bad. Just not excellent.

Chris K.

This is one of my favorite Greek restaurants. The food is consistently good and the prices are very reasonable. My favorites include the white bean soup, gyros, spinach pie, and the most excellent tziki sauce you will ever have!!! It's so creamy, garlicky, cucumber-y --- YUM!

Christos M.

One of the most authentic Greek restaurants that I've ever eaten at in the US. The more expensive Greek restaurants that I have visited can't even come close to the quality of food that I've had at this little gem in Cambridge. The appetizers are enough to give them an excellent review, and the lamb chops and roast lamb to die for. They also have a great vegetarian menu like the spanakopita and dolmathes which is what I have been getting there in the last couple of years since I turned vegetarian. Excellent service, kid friendly, and very clean. You have to try their taramasalata if you get there, they make it on the premises.

Cara P.

My friend who is like super duper greek first brought me here. Like so Greek that her grandmother "chased her around and slapped her with a wooden spoon when she got mad" greek. Anywhoo, the service is fast, the food is so good annnnd cheap! But the best part....it's two blocks from where I work. It's my "go to" place for wraps because I am completely in love with their homemade tzatsiki sauce. Ummmm yummm! Next up on my list to try is there spinach pie. Seriously - if you are in the area you must stop in!
(5)
Mark M.

We used to eat there all the time but the service began to grate on us. They're short with customers and don't seem to value their patronage. We waited 30 minutes one time for a table despite they're being 6 open tables. It was frustrating for us and the 3 couples in front and behind us.

BEST GREEK FOOD IN BOSTON! Feta Melts...egg lemon soup... pastitso ... gyros... their food is incredible! This is my family's place to go if we ever have any family event that involves going out to dinner. Even my one year old nephew eats it up! Go here, don't think about it any longer... you're already missing out on so much delicious pita and baba ghanoush as you read this! Go!

Amanda G.

I may start sweating Greek Corner hummus if I'm not careful. This place was less crowded before Guy Fieri visited it, then the secret was really out. I live a stone's throw from here and I have dinner (or lunch) at Greek Corner probably once every two weeks. The same people who work here are always here, and I kind of love that. But more importantly, I love that they serve authentic, delicious, cheap Greek food. Chicken gyros, vegetarian platter, village salad (YUM) are all mainstays of my diet. If you love a) hummus b) shwarma c) avolegmeno soup d) fresh grilled pita bread e) feta... the list goes on. Cheap, fresh, yummy square meals for the whole family! Two people, sans a Corona, is about 22 bucks with tip.
(5)
Hyerun K.

I think they have the best gyros in town! My fiance thought it was the succulent meat that made it so good, but I'm convinced it's the perfect amount of tang in the yogurt-dill sauce that sets this gyro apart! The servers were wonderful as well (and explained that it's pronounced "yee-ro" and not "yuhr-ro" or "jie-ro"). I'm docking a star though because the lettuce in my gyro wasn't fresh (it was turning brown!) and the greek fries are just regular fries with some sort of powder sprinkled on them. I'm used to greek fries having feta sprinkled or baked on top, but they used something similar to ranch dressing powder.

John S.

Great Greek-American classics, to be sure, but the restaurant itself is a mob scene. The service was friendly, but over-worked, and I think you'd all be best served by ordering takeout and eating it in the relative comfort of your own homes.

Jillian M.

This place it really fantastic. The food is great, the prices are solid and the service is just right. Every time I have been here, I was glad I did, which is the true test, isn't it? I thought I had experienced the depths of its glory until last weekend, when dirty and sweaty after a day of softball, we came here and ordered the appetizer sampler (always delicious) and the swordfish kebab. Oh. My. God. The swordfish kebab. Where do I start? It was so moist and beautiful and well-marinated. My boyfriend thought he was going to have to leave me alone with it. Just saying. It was truly the best thing I have eaten this year.

Andrew I.

Hey I'm half Greek, my mother is from athens - so i have had authentic and tasty Greek food all my life. I could swear to you that my mother and Yiayia were in the kitchen cooking just for me. EVERYTHING is delicious, from the egg lemon soup to the roast lamb dinner. there's nothing else like it, if you like Greek, or if you never tried it but want fresh delicious food, this is your place!

As I was driving home and rethinking the lunch from this restaurant I kept on subtracting stars. Saw this diner on diners, drive ins, and dives. Let me get right to it someone is not being quite honest and don't know who, but lets move on. When I was watching the show they prepared gyros, they showed layering of marinated meat. When done they shaved it and made the standard gyro (sauce, lettuce, tomatoes, onions). I was looking at the menu and noted for the gyro they described the meat as ground lamb and beef. Ok maybe every Greek menu is written the same but this place serves the real deal, shaved meat, wrong it was the ground ubiquitous stuff you can get at the quicky mart. Well sort of this was strong of lamb grease. The lettuce was border line fresh and there was no onions, what the storm put kink in their onion delivery? Leave it to say not a very good gyro. The French fries look great and were hot, well browned but every restaurant knows to blanch the fries then cook them on a higher heat to crisp the outside, these weren't done this way. Although nicely browned they were not crisp on the outside. They were ok but they could have been a home run if they knew how to cook them. The side salad was ok but the lettuce was just on he cusp of freshness and once again no onions. The dressing ws ok I think they were trying for a lemon vinaigrette but the lemon was almost undetectable. I tried an appetizer, it was some form of red caviar (salmon eggs?) spun up with I think yogurt. Not bad tasted somewhat like a lox dip. I wouldn't order it again not because it was bad but I prefer the hummus or babaganush. Problem was it was served on lettuce garnish which really looked like it was pulled from the trash bin. This meant this dip was plated oh a day or two ago maybe. Not a pleasant presentation. The lunch came to $18.10 without tip, little high for the quality and quantity. I like Greek diners they usually have a menu as large as "gone with the wind" and they usually do an amazing job on each dish. This one failed.

Saganaki is delicious. All the food is delicious, except falafel - it's dry and not made correctly. Servers are abrupt and not highly attentive; the place is considered a "dive", in the best way possible. It's worth going. I'm a repeat customer.
(4)
Rachel B.

The good: - I've gotten the standard gyro here a couple of times and it has been tasty - The hummus is really garlicy and flavorful Not so good: - Most recently my gyro had hard pieces of what seems like pebbles, but was probably bone - The prices are a bit steep for pretty standard fare - The greek salad leaves much to be desired. Usually it's kind of sad and wilty and warm - Parking is tough unless you have a Cambridge permit or come on a Sunday when it doesn't matter If I'm craving a gyro I'd probably return, but only because I haven't tried anything better.

Melissa M.

delicious and on the cheap - which isn't always an easy pair to find in somerville. got take-out last night and ordered 2 greek corner gyros, eggplant salad, and a piece of baklava and spent around 20 bucks. for two people for dinner i'd say that's a good deal. the take out service was super speedy and the counter guy was warm and friendly. the food was delicious as well - the lamb chunks in the gyros were juicy and perfectly grilled and by the time i finished crushing it, i was stuffed. will definitely go back for take-out as an alternative to the usual stop in at anna's for a burrito, and would likely dine-in with friends if we were looking for somewhere casual and low key to go.

The line was out the door when we arrived on Friday night, which we took to be a good sign. The wait was a little more than the 10 minutes we were told and the main dining area was smokey from the kitchen. As soon as we got our food though, all of this was forgotten. We started with a plate of falafel and hommus which was so fresh and delicious I actually stopped mid-sentence after tasting it. It was probably the best falafel I've had in years. Such great flavor and texture! The only thing I would have changed on that plate was to add more hommus-it wasn't enough for two people to share. But that's just proof that it was good. For dinner I had the Corner's Special Souvlaki with lamb. Simply delicious. It too was fresh and perfect though I do have to say that I'm not sure it was lamb. It tasted like beef, which was fine with me but others might have been disappointed. The meat was perfectly cooked and seasoned, regardless of what it was. My boyfriend had the Gyro with beef and while I didn't taste it, I could tell (by the fact that he was so quiet!) that his was delicious too. At the end, we both sat back in our chairs and sighed because Greek Corner totally surpassed our expectations. The only true downside was the smokey wait-but really, if smelling fresh meat grilling in a restaurant is a downside, then I'm OK with it. We'll be back several times, for sure.

Greek Corner is delicious. I came here for lunch after seeing this restaurant featured on "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives". I wasn't optimistic since I don't 100% trust Guy Fieri (the hair and the sunglasses are working against him), but for this restaurant he was spot on. My husband and I shared a falafel appetizer that was served with hummus and tabbouleh. The falafel was perfectly cooked and the hummus and tabbolueh were obviously homemade. For lunch I had a corner special gyro that was absolutely outstanding. It was overstuffed, hot, and delicious. My one criticism would be that they went extra-heavy on the yogurt sauce which overpowered the sandwich. No big deal though, next time I'll just get sauce on the side.

nadine h.

Not worth the hype!! Had a Gyro with salad. Practically no filling and the salad was soggy. The waitress was unfriendly. I would rather go to Pita in the South End twenty times better. The prices are inexpensive because the quality isn't good.

Socal C.

Three of us came here for dinner on 1/1/2013. I'm no expert on Greek food, but Greek Corner's offerings were tasty enough. It's the service that was insulting. That subject will be addressed with a detailed story in a bit. But quickly, we had to ask for menus after 20 minutes of being seated---got orders in after over 30 minutes---were never asked about more drinks after one glassful and it took 15 minutes for someone to pick up the check and process our payment. I aim to sample any restaurant a few times--rarely is my first visit or even second visit a make or break affair. So I'd have been willing to return to Greek Corner and try something else on another day. However, we'll never walk in here again. I hit a Greek restaurant and a Greek bakery all the time in Lowell where I work. Those two places (Olympia restaurant & Olympus bakery) play at a level well above Greek Corner. However, I understand that Greek Corner patrons don't pass through Lowell much if they live in Cambridge/Arlington/Somerville. Thus, Greek Corner is one of the few options for Greek food in the area. And for that purpose, Greek Corner gets the job done. However, condescension from a waiter is NEVER acceptable. I had ordered the roast lamb sandwich combination which comes with fries (rice I believe is also a choice). Perhaps I ordered incorrectly---entirely a possibility. When the sandwich came sans fries, I asked the waiter about my missing fried potatoes. She informed me that I had to order the combo to receive the fries. I was confused at this point and was sitting there trying to remember if I had ordered correctly. Then the waitress leaned down at me and motioned with her hands (as if I was some child who didn't know how to order a meal) "But, sir, you have to tell me you want the combination in order to get the fries." Did I get it wrong or did she? Forget the whole "The customer is always right." business. That's not my point. The point is another person--customer or otherwise---who's legitimately confused should not be treated in such a way. She got me the fries but the rudeness--we don't gotta pay to get treated like that. Oh, well, we finished up the meal--the fries were very good--paid our bill and knew that the 57 bucs or so we spent would be the last dollars we would ever pay out to Greek Corner. Again, the food was solid. But if you got some time and wanna take a drive and want Greek food. Get Ye to Lowell. Pick up delicious spinach pies for $5.50 at Olympus bakery and have the roast lamb with garnish at Olympia restaurant. The food is far better and hey, the workers won't treat you like trash.

I saw this place on triple D and I stopped what was doing and rode my bike there from the north end in 90 degree heat. It was worth it, and I've been back about 5 times since. I just get the lamb Gyro and a Greek beer and it doesn't get much better. I also like that they put shredded lettuce on the Gyros, most Greek places don't do this.

Went here for the first time today after running. I was all sweaty and gross but it didn't matter. Had the gyro, could have eaten two. Fantastic sandwich. The place is nice inside and quiet. A peaceful and tasty getaway from being on Mass Ave.

Nice little place off of Mass Ave. The sign is unassuming and the restaurant does not stand out, but inside it is tastefully decorated. The place was packed when I went, and for good reasons. We started with the Tabouli which was excellent. We got fairly full off of it which probably wasn't the best idea, but it was worth it. I got the gyro plate, while my friend got the lamb kabob. I actually liked her dish better than mine, and she liked mine better than hers, but both were excellent. The lamb and beef were well shaved and perfectly marinated, with the rice pilaf and salad adding a perfect counterpoint to the food. The lamb kabobs were juicy and well seasoned also, definitely the dish I will order next time. Highly recommended!

I used to frequent this place quite a bit during my carnivore days. Their chicken gyro is worth coming here. The falafels, on the other hand, are so dry that you'll need a gallon of water to toss these suckers down. The tahini sauce is also extremely bitter tasting and doesn't complement the sandwich. So if you do come by here, ask for taziki sauce instead. The cucumber sauce moistens up the dry falafels.

I'm Greek, so I know what I am talking about. This food is awesome, almost as good as Yia Yia used to make God rest her soul. My grandfather, like most Greeks, owned a restaurant. So far, I have been here two times with my cousin (also Greek) and we have been blown away. You know that dish you make really well so you never order it out because you are convinced no one can do it better? That is most Greek food for us. So the first trip we went safe, ordered things that are hard to screw up. Spanakopita (spinach pie), dolmathes, taramosalata (a fish roe spread), a gyro and calamari. Everything was so good. They make their own Taramosalata and it is the best I have ever had. You have to try it, it is only $1.99 for a little sample. The gyro was a step above standard, mostly due to the homemade tzatsiki sauce. The calamari was very lightly breaded, not greasy, lemony and delicious enough to order on the second visit. Entrees come with a delicious salad topped with a nice hunk of feta and fries or pilaf almost as good as Yia Yia's. On the second visit, we got the appetizer sampler for 2 with the taramosalta, dolmathes, spanakopita, garlic-tastic hummus, eggplant salad, tzatsiki and tabouleh. Yum. Double yum. But I went out there this time. I trusted these Greeks running around yelling at one another in my grandmother's native language. I ordered the pasticio. Now, you have to understand, I make the same pasticio that I have eaten my whole life. I love it and everyone who has tried it begs me to make it again and again. This pasticio was great. I loved it. I will still make mine, but I have found a place where it is actually good. And did I mention, this app and two entrees was only $37 including tax? And they have Coke, no Pepsi (backwards from the Billy Goat but still funny). I am whore for a restaurant with Coke. I have to say too, I love the feel of this place. The diner/paper placemats/faux Greek is all actually very Greek. And who gives a crap anyway if the food is incredible? Love, love, love. I can guarantee that I will be here often.

Ok, lets just start with the fact that no matter how entertaining a TV personality may be, there is still a show to be had. Having said that I would steer far far away from the Greek Corner. I woulnd't go so far as to say I literally drove up from New York just for this place, but it was definitely on the Boston bucket food list, and unfortunately our first stop. I, like so many others became somewhat entranced by the platinum lure that is Guy Fieri, and quickly jotted this place down after watching the show. Gyro's done the right way, dude I'm there, where do I sign? But oh no friends, this is part of the trap, and you'd think as a filmmaker I'd know that the magical world of television is a farce, but I fell, and I fell hard. Growing up in Astoria Queens in the 80's meant lots and lots of greek food, and not always great but in abundance. So needless to say I set the bar kinda high, but after the performance I saw I didn't think it would be an issue. Well folks, it was, it was a big issue, because nothing I saw or ate reflected anything near what was portrayed. I should have known when we were seated as the only patrons, I was in for disappointment, but when our waitress left us sitting there without menus, the confirmation stamp was dropped. After waiting for close to 6 minutes for her to return, I finally got up and asked if we could see a menu. She was polite and apologetic, and having been a waitress I know it happens to the best of us, but it's not like the place was pumpin so....just sayin. Freshly sliced meat stacked onto the spit, I think not, it was no different than the generic block of Gyro meat you order at any diner across the country. In fact it lacked flavor, and a crap ton of it, if not for the tzatiki sauce they could have sandwiched squirrel meat between that pita for all I woulda known. The portion was insultingly small, and I'm all for normal sized portions, but for $7 bucks I expect to at least be full. My husband's burger was fit for a doll house, although the fries were of a decent size. The pita was mostly charred, the meat dry and bland, and as previously stated; small. Prices were descent but for what you get, I woulda paid double to have sunk my teeth into what was sold to me on the screen. Doing things the "right way" for the cameras, is a crappy way to haul asses through the doors. Next time, try actually doing it the right way, I felt duped and quite the dumb ass for setting my hopes so high. Honestly, after this experience I longed for the Gyro's at Greek Village in Carmel NY. Ya just don't know how good ya have it until its replaced with crap.

Wow look I am the 100th review, do I get a prize? Anway, I went here last night for dinner with my parents based on the Yelp reviews. I have to say the food was great but the restaurant was a little loud. The friendly service and the great food made up for it though. I ordered the vegetarian grape leaves (A+), the baked lamb which is served with rice and some kind of tomoato based sauce on top of it was very tender and flavorful as well (A+).

I brought my Greek father and non-Greek mother to the Greek Corner this weekend. Everyone seemed to thoroughly enjoy their meals. I've been here a handful of times, and the service has always been great, it's never too full and the food is scrumptious. I got the vegetarian plate. It was the perfect amount of food. Spinach pie, hommos, falaffel, grape leaves, greek salad... yes please! My boyfriend and brother both went for the gyro sandwich plates which were HUGE. My parents both went for lamb souvlaki which looked awesome. We also split some baklava for dessert. Great Greek food and a great place to go to try different types of Greek food if you've never had it, thanks to the combo plates.

Really solid Greek food. Nice service. Ambience is nothing special. Love the Falafel plate, and the rice and salad are delicious. Take some baklava to go, too. Authentic food, good prices. Recommended!

This is a great neighborhood gem for North Cambridgers, and Davis and Porter Square natives. Food is tasty, prices are affordable, service is attentive and fast. I've stopped by here twice after getting a haircut nearby and loved the gyro and slouvaki. Next time I may splurge on some more classic entrees, but for now having a counter and sit service is definitely a plus. Definitely check it out for some affordable Greek eats.

My 4 stars= 4.5 stars. Minus .5 because I've never really had Greek food before so I have nothing to compare it to. Came here last night for my Godfather's birthday and was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoy Greek food. The restaurant was very cute inside and definitely had a Mediterranean feel. The service was great (also helps that our server was attractive and had the cutest greek accent ever). He explained to us about the different wines (since they were all Greek of course) and made recommendations (which I love). We started of with the falafel dish and the sampler plate. The spinach pie was awesome, the grape leaves were awesome, and everything else I can't quite pronounce or remember how to spell it, but it was great as well. I ended up just kind of piling everything onto my pita bread and eating it all together- delicious. For my entree, I ordered the gyro plate. Shaved lamb piled on top of rice pilaf and a salad. SO GOOD. so so so good. The lamb was so delicious and flavorful, with the perfect amount of seasonings. I couldn't get enough of it. The plate doesn't appear to be too big, but its jam packed with hidden pieces of lamb and buttloads of rice. I loved it. My father order the lamb shish kabob which was thicker pieces of lamb on skewers, with the same rice and salad thing going on. Although not as good as my shaved lamb, it was still yummy. If you haven't tried Greek food, this is definitely your go to place. I plan to come back to introduce a friend to the wonderful world of Greek cuisine. Entrees for $10.25? I'll take that any day.

Had lunch there yesterday with my wife and our daughter. This is Greek cuisine done right. The Gyros were terrific, the sausage I had was equally good. The place has nice atmosphere too. Service was fast and friendly.

Kara S.

All I have to say is thank god I have a Greek friend! I met up with her and two other friends here tonight and was blown away. Simply blown away. First off, I got there early and watched a lot of comings and goings, and swooned when I saw that almost everyone was greeted warmly, by name. It says a lot to me when a place has regulars, and the Greek Corner definitely was overflowing with them. There was lots of banter, congratulations to one waiter about his engagement, one employee shouting to a regular that he saw him the other day in Medford. It all just made me wish I was a regular too. Now onto the food. We sampled a lot: I had the lamb/beef gyro and the egg/lemon/chicken soup, one friend had the chicken gyro, and the other two had veggie platters. We also got an order of fries (which had parmesean on them, not feta as I believe some reviews referenced). We also got a side order of hummus. I will be back, often, for more gyro's. It was the perfect amount of veggies to juicy meat, and the tzatziki in it was delicious. And the pita it was served on? So perfect. If all you've ever had was supermarket pita, then you need to come here and try the homemade pita bread. It will amaze you. The most outstanding thing I ate though was the hummus. I declared, "OMG this is the best hummus I've ever had!" and I wasn't kidding. I wasn't being dramatic. I was telling the god's honest truth. So The Greek Corner has thus landed a spot on my perfect dish list!

My Boston favorite for Greek food, by a long shot. Started eating here in 1997. Glorious, glorious food. Someone below complains about the salad. That's how a legit Greek salad is made: large cuts of cucumbers, tomatoes, onion, feta, a little olive oil. Xoriatiki (not sure how to transliterate best) is not the same thing as a McGreek Salad. Souvlaki is great. Tzatziki is the best. Hummous done Greek-style, very good. Chicken kabab is so subtle, so delicious. Gyros are awesome, and quite filling. Avgolemono , calamari, it just doesn't stop. OK, the moussaka is a little greasy IMO. That's OK because I don't like moussaka. There is only one problem at this place: the service is slow. It's as if they imported actual Greek service standards to Cambridge (I've lived in Greece; they take life slow).

M M.

4.5 stars....good prices, great food! We like this for Friday night take out. They're fast and delicious. We order the souvlaki plate (lamb) and they must have made some changes recently, because it's even better! Lamb is more tender and highly seasoned (almost too much, but I'll take it). Heavenly...even better, leftovers the next morning go great in scrambled eggs. Best tsatzik sauce I've found so far and they're usually very generous with the pita bread. Parking can be tight, but if it's after hours, we use the side parking lot (bank?). We heart you, Greek Corner.

I came upon this place when my original choice down the street was closed. Service was very fast, as soon as we walked in we were whisked away to a table. I saw most people seated were eating gyros. My fiance decided that was his choice. I got a Greek salad wrap with chicken. We started with the hummus appetizer. The hummus was nicely presented but overly garlicky. I like garlic but this was extreme. We didn't even finish it. Our food came shortly after. My wrap was wrapped in foil then cut in half. Little pieces of foil made their way inside the wrap. I had to carefully pick them out. The chicken was flavorful but the some lettuce pieces had brown ends. The gyro on the other hand was delicious. My only complaint was that the tzatziki sauce was too excessive. Big globs came out in all directions once biting in. It overpowered the taste of the meat. I would return again for the gyro but ask for less sauce.

Liz M.

VERY LIMITED REVIEW I'm only reviewing what I ate, some hummus & EGGPLANT SALAD + the service. hummus + eggplant salad - way too salty. service - no bueno. people need jobs, maybe they need more waitstaff. There aren't that many Greek places around but this aint no Fontanas or an Astoria joint. Maybe the meat is worth it.

Annie I.

I go here for lunch sometimes and get the gyro plate special--it comes with a gyro and a salad, and the tzatziki is amazing!! the price is reasonable, somewhere around or under 10 bucks for lunch. my girlfriend usually gets a salad and always likes it. the staff is friendly and it has a small family business vibe.

Have you been to Greece? Well, if you have then you know this is one of the most authentic Greek places in the area. Family run with great food. You don't pay for atmosphere, but everyone is welcome! If you want good Greek food this place won't disappoint.

Alice S.

This place is so good. A bit out of the way if you're taking the T to Davis Square, but absolutely worth it. I'm no expert on Greek food, but I've had my share while living down in Houston, and I'm so happy to have found a place like this in Boston. On my future visits, I will be more adventurous with the menu, but I can comment right now that the gyro and the baklava are both among the best I've ever had. Even my Chinese father, who is generally hesitant when eating non-Asian food, loved both dishes. My only small criticism is the falafel sandwich. While the pita bread (which is unbelievably good) and all the fixings in the sandwich are delicious, the falafel is always a bit dry, especially when compared to the perfectly moist chickpea fritters over at Clover Food Lab. Still, this place is a winner overall for sure. What to order: -gyros -baklava

I'm not Greek and I'm not going to pretend my 10 days in Greece has made me an expert on Greek but this really made me feel like my non-existent Greek half was satisfied. I was so happy coming in here because it gave me the chance to have Pastitso, which I had not had in over a year. Anyway, Boyfriend and I shared Dolmathes and Saganaki appetizers. While in Greece I had always had Saganaki, fried cheese, served plainly on a plate, but they served it in wine. I thought it was so good and different. The Dolmathes, which are stuffed grape leaves, were plump and lemony. The Pastitso was a hearty serving of noodles, beef, and a cream sauce. It had the perfect touch of nutmeg. Heaven. The meal is served with fries/rice and salad. I upgraded the fries to Greek fries, which are lemony fries served with grated cheese and oregano, and made the standard salad a Horiatiki salad. The meal was affordable, filling, and delicious. I had heard such great things about Greek Corner, and now I can see why.

Jim M.

The best chicken Gyro -- period! I've eaten at many Greek restaurants and I can honestly say this was the best chicken Gyro I've ever eaten. The chicken was grilled to perfection and was moist and juicy. The pita was fresh and warm and the tzatziki sauce was fresh and obviously homemade. I also had some of their galaktoboureko and it was out of this world. This is not a fancy restaurant, but if you want really good Greek food that is freshly made, then give this place a try.

Courtney N.

The food at Greek Corner was so delicious! My boyfriend and I were in search of something different, and since he's a big lamb fan we just had to stop when we saw this restaurant, and we were not disappointed. The service was fast, we were seated in no time. The place only seemed moderately busy, but it was early in the dinner rush. I ordered a European iced coffee which was yummy. For entrees, my boyfriend (of course) got the baked lamb. His lamb actually was a functioning leg, which he gleefully played with and kept showing me. I got the moussakka and I was definitely impressed. Both came with rice and a salad. So much food! I couldn't finish mine, I'm sad to say. I wanted to, but my stomach said no. The prices were great. We've eaten out a lot the past week (with my boyfriend's brother recently visiting) and I found Greek Corner the best food for the price. I cannot wait to go back and get more yummy food. Awesome, yummy, and more awesome!

I told the waiter that I wanted an eggplant salad sandwich -- then changed my order about four more times in the next five minutes because indecision is my worst quality. The adorable young man was incredibly patient with me and even offered advice ("Well, if you get eggplant instead of chicken, you get more stuff because the eggplant comes with herbs and spices.") Ultimately, I got the chicken gyro and it was a great choice. The waiter gave me an extra heaping side of yogurt sauce for **free** merely because I asked. Such awesome service! Another example: friend spilled water all over herself and they cleaned it up immediately. PLUS they serve Mythos, the Greek beer ($4).

An old haunt - haven't been there in years, so this is more a historical review. Simply fantastic baked lamb shanks, accompanied with a salad and rice, for a great price. We also used to always get the fried calamari - also excellent. I've heard various things about Greek Corner lately - none of them good - but I'll have to see for myself.

My boyfriend and I love this place. The atmosphere is not pretentious, our server is always extremely nice and I love the fact that they have frappe. Just like the ones that I force his cousin to make me everytime I'm over her house! Yes, I force her. If you have not tried it, you must. It's a whole different coffee experience! And being the caffeine junkie that I am, I give up my Starbucks and dunkies for this. On to the food, the boyfriend loves the gyro. He says it reminds him of the home he gets back home. So, being that I've never gone to Greece, I'll take his word for it. I always find the food pretty good, a lot like the one we get at his family house and the atmosphere is more of a comfort food type. I have to say, I love their fried zucchini's and hummus. I'm so addicted to their hummus. My favorite dish there is their vegetarian plate (and I'm not even vegetarian!). All in all, I always leave there with my wallet still intake, my stomach full and with a smile on my face.

1 Corner Special with fries and a Mythos, please. Thank you! This is now the only thing I ever get there, and it gets 5 stars, easy. I did have one experience, some time ago, with browned and gross lettuce in a Greek salad. I complained, they gave me a new salad, and I didn't go back in there for quite some time. Now I love it, though.

Robert R.

I thought this place was very authentic. I hadn't had Greek food in a long time and was very happy with the food quality as well as the atmosphere. I lived in Greece for two year back in the 1980s and miss the whole eating experience, this was as close as I've seen in the U.S. The Tzatziki, fried zucchini and Spanakopita were very good. I think I ordered one of everything, I sat there and ate as much as I could hold. The waitress, while very attractive wasn't very friendly. Overall this was a great place to get real Greek food.

Liz L.

I have lived in Greece (though I am not personally Greek) and am extremely picky about Greek food in the US. From other reviewers, perhaps this would have been a different experience at dinnertime than lunchtime. The service was OK. The waitstaff delivered the wrong entree to me and didn't notice our waving her down till my dining companion actually got up and went over to tell her. When she came back, she seemed more amused than concerned, blaming the chef for putting the wrong plate on our tray. Later, when we were trying to pay the bill that had been delivered, she was too busy typing text messages on her cellphone to notice our again trying to flag her, and again my dining companion had to go over to her to get service. My fellow diner said that she was probably overwhelmed at being the only person waiting tables at the time we were there (there were perhaps 6-8 occupied tables), but I didn't see that as an excuse to be standing off out of sight of most of the tables and not even bothering to check on people. In terms of the food: As an appetizer, we ordered the tzadziki. It was pretty good, with lots of garlic (which I prefer), but it tasted to both myself and my dining companion as if the yogurt had been cut with sour cream, which is not just not traditional, but makes tzadziki taste much creamer than usual and cuts the taste of the herbs (a shame, as they tasted like they were fresh). As a main dish, I ordered the vegetarian combination plate, which consisted of a huge, bland, very atraditional salad (mostly iceberg lettuce, which I did not ever even see in Greece!) piled high in the middle, with two vegetarian-style grape leaf rolls and a piece of spanakopita (spinach-feta mix in phyllo) on one side and a giant lone falafel ball on the other side, placed smack in the middle of a little pool of hummus. Despite the inelegant placing on the plate, the grape leaf rolls were excellent, tasting distinctly like the chef had used fresh-squeezed lemon juice. The falafel ball was pretty dry (not surprisingly, as it is difficult to cook a large falafel ball the whole way through without having that happen) and the hummus was a bit gluey. The spanakopita, which was one of my favorite lunches in Greece, tasted surprisingly bland for a combination that is usually so delicious; it tasted like it was mostly spinach with a bit of feta, and as if the spinach had either been overcooked or come from the freezer, and the phyllo surprised me with its lack of flakiness. The only thing I ate out of the large centerpiece salad was the feta, which was pretty good but not the greatest I've ever tried. If I go back, I will order a plate of just the grape leaf rolls. My dining companion got the village salad as an entree, which was supposed to be done in a traditional Greek salad style, but the tomatoes were way too coarsely chopped - as if the chef had simply halved or perhaps quartered large tomatoes - and my companion said that the chef had put too much oil on the salad. At the end of the meal, there was a pile of giant pieces of tomato on the other plate to match the large pile of iceberg lettuce on mine.

I have eaten here many many times and am almost always delighted with my food. There are certain dishes that they do really really well and I've learnt that it is better to stick to those. The highlights: The Chicken Kabob is outstanding. It is simple and perfectly cooked. The chicken is tender, moist, smoky and delicious. The Tzatzki and Taramasalata are fantastic, although because they are home made are sometimes a bit inconsistent. I've had Tarama once there that didn't taste at all like the other times, but when it's good it's great. The home made Greek sausages are wonderfully complex in flavour and addictive. I also can't get enough of their grilled shrimp. They are delicious and I always wish the portion was twice as large. The lowlights: I hate to mention these as everything else I've had here has been really stellar, BUT how can you call yourself a Greek restaurant and not have a fantastic Moussaka? I was completely underwhelmed by the Moussaka and almost didn't come back again, but decided to give them another chance and have been thrilled with everything on all subsequent visits. I have never ordered the dry, bland moussaka again. The Bechamel sauce which normally can save a so so Moussaka was terribly blah and the eggplant was also dry and heavy. I've had some Moussaka's that are so sublime that they make you want to cry. It's time for the Greek Corner to stop resting on it's laurels and redo the recipe for the Moussaka. I haven't ordered the Pastitsio as I'm sure that if the Bechamel sauce on the Moussaka was terrible then it would also be terrible on the Pastitsio as well. The Dolmades (stuffed grape leaves) were also underwhelming. They tasted like every canned one I've ever had.

Recently returned from an overseas trip... Sorry for being absent, Yelp. Last night went to Greek Corner Restaurant to get my fill of kebab. It was delicious, and certainly deserving of the Best of Boston award. Hearty portion sizes and pleasant service.

If you have reduced your dining out budget due to the economy, you should definitely check out the Greek Corner's always delicious and always inexpensive menu! I love everything about the Greek Corner - friendly servers, cozy atmosphere, large menu, quick service, and fresh ingredients. I would go there just for their Tzatziki and Falafel if the rest of their food wasn't equally as declious. I also love their charcoal cooked meats. Their menu will delight vegetarians and carnivores alike. Oh, and take out is super fast.

Fantastic food. The service can be a little slow so I usually get it to go. I highly recommend the Gyro plate as well as the lemon egg drop soup that begins with "A" that I would butcher if I tried to pronounce, spell, etc... Prices are reasonable and portions are large. The Gyro plate will usually take me from dinner to leftover lunch.

I've been eating here for years. It's very consistent. In fact, I don't think the menu has changed in all that time. The food is fresh and flavorful. Good soups and sandwiches. The eggplant salad is delicious. More regular salads can be disappointing as they are mostly iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, onions kind of thing. The fried calamari is always done well. The various eggplant dips, tsatziki, hommus etc. are always dependable. Full dinners can be hit or miss. Had a roast lamb once that was chewy and room temperature--a braised lamb that was very nice. Service can be slow when it is busy. Not much on atmosphere but food makes up for it. Better value for lunch than full course dinners.

This is my favorite restaurant in all of Boston. It has a very low key family style atmosphere. I don't think it's possible to order something from the Greek Corner without it being totally delicious. The chicken kabab has that bbq'd taste together with the Greek spices it is so scrumptious.

Go here. Now. The people are so friendly -the food is so good. I can't say enough about this little gem. I've been going there for 5 years and everyone I have ever brought has fallen in love with this place. Get the sampler platter, the baked lamb to split, and a bottle of Anastasi Red and you're out of there for under $45- and you'll be stuffed. Just a quick walk down the bike path from Davis. You can't get a better deal.

Anything here is great! The meats are tender and the dishes are SO full of flavor. I usually go for the beef or lamb kabob, but they usually have amazing tasting specials as well. Definitely take home or save room for their baklava.

Yassouuu! Greek Corner is the BEST! I love this place. I have been going here for years and have never once been disappointed. The food is great, owners are very nice and the staff is nice as well. Some favorites are the Avgolemono Soup (Egg-Lemon soup), Souvlaki, Saganaki (Fried cheese), Gyro dinners, Kalamarakia Tiganita (basically fried calamari) and GREAT pastichio!!!..And the sweets, don't forget those! Greek Corner has great authentic rice pudding and flan...both to die for! Everything you could ask for and more..Great family atmosphere or great to bring your special someone for a cozy little dinner. Opa, Kalinihta!

Love the Corner. The egg lemon soup (AVGOLEMONO?) is the cure for the common cold and some winter nights I'll just stop for a cup or 2 to go. The pasticho and souvlaki are great (please excuse this Irish boy's Greek spelling). It's not really a place to linger but the service is efficient. If you want good Greek food without having to make a night of it the Greek Corner rocks

i actually am never able to convince myself to try anything other than their gyros, i love them so much. occasionally they skimp on the tzatziki sauce, but that's my one complaint. sometimes i'll get some greek fries, which are delicious, and then the baklava is tasty. maybe someday i'll try something else, but really, i am always in bliss when i can just get my hands on something like a gyro or a dÃ¶ner kebap.

Decided to try this place out after reading the reviews on Yelp and I was definitely NOT disappointed. Small, causal atmosphere that is complimented by great food. Gyros plate was excellent and service was quick and friendly. Needless to say, I'll definitely be coming back to try more of their dishes.

You can't beat The Greek Corner! The best Greek food and pricing around. The staff is friendly, courteous and serve you with a smile. The short cute Greek girl with glasses is the best. My favorite restaurant in town. The lamb dishes are as good as it gets.

The Greek Corner is one of my favorite local restaurants. Cheap food prepared hot and fresh, served in a casual and easygoing environment. They do a ton of business, and are really nice people. The best dish here in my opinion is their gyro sandwich. It is simply awesome. They start with a thick, hearty fresh-baked pita (nothing at all like what you get at the supermarket, I assure you), add juicy grilled and seasoned beef and/or lamb, top with fresh veggies and a sour cream/dill sauce. The whole package tastes AMAZING, and that's what keeps me coming back. Just a great balance of hot/cold, savory and sour, fresh and freshly cooked. This is one of those things I could eat every meal for the rest of my life and be happy. As for the rest of the menu, I am not really a Greek connoisseur, so I can't say much. They have a decent array of Mediterranean stuff. Didn't care much for the Greek fries. The baklava makes for a great, sticky sweet ending to any meal.

Greek Corner has really good Chicken Gyros! We have ordered the steak and it was overcooked and tough. I would definitely go with the gyro. Very affordable and quick for take out, too.

Yes yes yes yes yes yes YES. OK, being a Greek-American, I've been to way more Greek restaurants and diner-style places than I'd care to count. So when I moved to Davis and saw the blue-and-white exterior with the ancient Greek-style lettering and neon-columned windows, all I could think was "uh oh." Boy, that was stupid of me! I was really pleasantly surprised by the decor and the FOOD (which, you know, in a restaurant is kind of important)! For one thing, the decor inside is a lot more toned-down than I was expecting. You won't find in here: Corinthian faux-marble columns and fountain-statues of Athina/Apollo/Zeus holding a wax model of the special of the day. You will find in here: Subtle wall decorations (like traditional Greek cooking utensils), just one wall mural. This place won't assault your sense of aesthetics! The food is wide-ranging, though overall pretty basic and homey, just the way most Greeks like it. Gyro, souvlaki, pita, meze -- all delicious and well-cooked. Their melitzanosalata (eggplant salad) had a lot of garlic and tomato in it, which was awesome. You can't go nuts with some staples like gyro or souvlaki, but their appetizers showed a lot of creativity. Skip the "greek salad" (lettuce salad with feta cheese is not Greek--Greeks don't eat lettuce salad! it's an Americanism, like the fortune cookie or chop suey) and get some of the eggplant salad or taramosalata with pita. That's how it's really done, Greek-style. In the end, the Greek Corner is comfort food. It's nothing sophisticated, but it's filling, delicious and cheap -- and sometimes that's all you want. Add my vote to the pile of fellow Greek-Americans who give this place a solid stamp of approval. Next time I have a hankering for some guilt-free gyro, I'm heading to the Corner.

My boy and I have been in search of a great Greek restaurant in Boston to beat his Greek aunts food. This is the place. The baklava alone beats hers, but I will never tell her this. After a quick yelp search, we were on our way. We ate until we thought we would explode, but it didn't matter, because every bite was amazing. The gyro was perfection, the yogurt sauce on it was like a little bite of heaven- smooth and flavorful. The lamb was juicy, not too chewy, and loaded into the gyro, to fulfill anyone's appetite. The spanikopita was unlike most I have had and I have never loved it so much before. It was light and airy. The cheese was flavorful, but didn't take away from the spinach. The drinks were good, and the bread, the bread was warm and heavenly. It is probably a good thing I have to drive here, otherwise, I would never eat at home. If this doesn't make you salivate, even a little, then go and try it for yourself. It is a hidden gem in Boston.

Great catering. Their Greek salad is AMAZING. I haven't had many of their menu items, but their veggie roll up is delicious as is their gyro. Their falafel roll up is good, but dry. One helping of any item here will keep you full for hours and hours.

I love the Feta Melt. It comes with big slices of tomatoes in a gyro wrap...mmm! Yum! Also, get a Greek beer. Just do it -- really! I like going to this place for lunch with a friend for something different (other than a cafe or a burrito). Prices aren't bad, food is satisfying.

Hooray for greek food! Greek food is that dirty little secret kind of eating. Like "shhh... I'm eating Greek food, don't look at me like that!" I ordered a gyro plate with fries, and the gyro was excellent, but the fries were a bit meh. Too greasy! So pretty much typical greek food, eh? Fine by me, because I love those crazy wraps. Unfortunately, Greek music flounced through out the restaurant. Now this would've been all fine and well if not for one thing; the movie/television show/etc; Borat. Every single song that got pumped through the sound system made me want to talk about disco dancing, sitting on comfortable chairs, or perhaps ping-pong. Every song sounds like a variant of the music before it. I'm quite sure there's a bunch of delicate groupings and so on and so forth that I am not accustomed to, but until that day, anything east of Italy and west of, say Mongolia, will make me think of Borat. Service was spotty at best, but I was also there at 4:00 PM on a Saturday so I'm not going to delete much, but it was a little insulting that we had to take the check to the front counter after waiting 10 minutes. I'd go again, but next time it's gonna be takeout.

Went back last night. Gyro was just as amazing as I remembered! Place was packed -might not be such a hidden jewel anymore - especially with their DDD appearance!

I don't know much about greek food but i enjoyed greek corner. I ordered the lamb shank which the waitress told me was the best and most authentic item on the menu. The lamb was really tender but the flavor could have been better. The staff and the food were good enough to make me return.

Went with the in-laws for a lunch. The generously-sized appetizers of tzatziki and taramasalata were raved about around the table (from folks who were thoroughly apprehensive when I suggested them), and the souvlaki, gyros and roast lamb were all hits. And a bargain at less than $75 for four people, including drinks and tip! We'll definitely be going back.

Last night my bf and I went to the Greek Corner to try their gyros since we are on the hunt for the best gyro in Mass! I knew of this restaurant before and never been inside (my father wasnt to pleased with this place so I never went) so we figured we would give it a shot since all the great reviews from Yelp. The restaurant is clean and very organized with nice greek decor. They only had 2 servers but our waitress was attentive when needed to be and apologized for bringing us diet coke instead of coke (yes we care!). Anyways, I ordered the Lamb Gryo combo with a greek salad and my boyfriend ordered the same but with the fries. In my gyro there was a TON of tzatiki sauce and it was VERY garlicy even hours later i could still taste the garlic in my mouth...not so pleasant. The meat seemed to be cubed and not shaved like a gyro normally should be cut but I didnt see a gyro up in the back on the spit. The pita was tasty but not crisp enough for me either. The greek dressing was the most classic oil/vingaer with seasoning not the creamy type and I got a small butt of the lettuce bottom on my plate. My bf's gyro was the same way but had to take at least 3 bites to even get to any meat and he didnt have a ton of tzatiki sauce like I did either. He also got the fries which were tasty but not crispy but very yummy I believe. We chose to get a rice pudding for there and a galatabouriko to go which I was very excited since it is one of my favorites. The rice pudding was good but the galatabouriko was a let down, not very sweet with no honey at all and a bunch of cinnamon on top. Did not satisify my craving of a yummy dessert. Overall I wouldnt go back here as I much rather prefer the Farmer's Grill in Newton so driving out there (from East Boston) is defintely worth it in my book. But I think if you live in the Cambridge/Boston area and you are not to picky on food like we are then this is a good quick gryo spot to go to.

The gyros here are big, bomb, and like 5 bucks. The lemon chicken soup's pretty good, too. The gyros would be outstanding drunk-food if only they'd stay open later... Side note, parking is ALWAYS at least a small hassle here, so prep your mind. (it's worth the hassle.)

this is a good place to get good quality Greek food for reasonable prices. I typically gets the Village Salad with chicken, which is just your basic Greek Salad + umm chicken. all the ingredients are fresh and tasty and at less than $10 it's a good deal. they are pretty fast if you phone in your order ahead of time, but the service for sit down meals can be painfully slow. I think it's a better place for takeout than for a sit down meal, but do both with regularity.

Greek food is a fine melody of the finest pressed olive oil, fresh fermented bread, colorful vegetables, juicy meat, sea food all cooked in spices and fresh rosemary. The people from Greek were great scholars who aimed to excel in everything they do. The results are quite visible in their food as they are the inventors of olive oil which is beneficial to health. Greeks also made different type of wines from the best quality of grapes fermented in controlled environment.

Today, you can find hundreds of restaurants offering authentic Greek food or popularly termed as Mediterranean cuisine in New York city alone. People wait in line to taste the exotic Greek dishes like saganaki, taramasalata, souvlaki, loukoumades, spanakopita, moussaka, and many more.

A smart mix of few ingredients can virtually take you on the pebble streets of beautiful city of Greece.

For those who don't have time to enjoy fine dining should try tasting the famous souvlaki with pita which is type of meat dish, also a trademark Greek fast food. For those who are vegetarian, or vegan can try different versions of Greek Salad. So, if you wish to enjoy a hearty yet healthy meal that tastes divine then try dining at the best Greek restaurant in your city. Greek cuisine not only tastes good but also help maintain your body in a natural way through healthy diet.
