Always great gyro's, love the stuffed grape leaves and the lemon orzo chicken soup. Everything else I've tried was good as well. Grilled octopus was tasty. A great Greek restaurant.

One of our favorite places but we hadn't been in a while. Stopped in tonight & enjoyed it as much as ever! Had the chilean sea bass & i was blown away - i often get the bronzino but wanted to switch it up & i was not disappointed in the least. I also like how they've had the same folks working there for as long as we have gone there. Honestly - I'm a good cook who enjoys Mediterranean dishes - but I can't do what they do!

Beautiful, upscale place with delicious food and a weird name. "Greek City" sounds like a deli to me, but is anything but!

I hate leaving bad reviews, but my food was so overcooked . The meat platter was all overcooked . My daughter baby lamb chops was also overcooked . I have no idea what went wrong in that kitchen . Plus the credit card fee . That's the cost of doing business so absorb that. Last time at this restaurant.

Food is generally good, service can be spotty, there is one specific waiter who is crabby and treats you as though he is doing you a big favor. My partner's order came with a visibly spoiled salad and when we ask for a replacement they were not at all gracious about it. I never would have served what came on that plate. That reflects very badly on them, and then not to acknowledge it cheapens the experience. There are a lot of Greek restaurants in the area and I likely won't go back to this one.

Writing this about 20 minutes after leaving — my meal was perfect. I ordered the branzino with escarole and a side of rice. Both sides were great and the branzino was grilled just the way it should be. I’ve had many branzinos in my life. This one had Crispy grilled skin and moist tender meat. The other stars of the evening were my two waitresses. Both were hospitable, checked in the appropriate amount of times, and always had smiles on their faces. I hope this review helps! I took a bite before taking a picture.

Not only did I have the worst service of any restaurant outing in my life, I got food poisoning from the fried calamari I ordered. Undercooked and plain terrible. After addressing the manager about our experience, we were told he would have a meeting with him and the owner. This is the third time we’ve had him as our server and every time he is unpleasant, impatient, and pushy. We were going to order meals to go for family at home, but he slammed the check down in front of us when we weren’t even finished! Other people I’ve spoken to have had the same experience with this particular server. As a former server, I could never imagine treating my guests in such a negative manner. After reading numerous reviews, I noticed people have had the same type of experience; poor service and food poisoning. It’s safe to say we will never be returning and will tell people to not give them their business.

Another great meal here. My wife and I went for lunch this time. We walked in right at 11:30 when they were opening, got seated immediately, were attended too and everything was great. At some restaurants, they open when they say they're open, but aren't really ready yet to serve anything. But here, it was smooth and swift. The taramasalata, octopus and Greek salad were all excellent. It made for a great spread over lunch to share. Also to note, the olive oil they put out with bread is excellent! Flavorful, not harsh and of a great quality for a complimentary table oil. It's BYOB and always a great time. The only thing that bugs me here is the "credit card" fee, which I thought was technically illegal now. Please just raise your prices a bit and do away with it.

We just ate here last night and it was wonderful. After hearing so many great recommendations from friends and coworkers regarding this restaurant we decided to give it a shot. The ambiance was calm with dim lighting (we went for dinner). Our server, Bella, was an absolute pleasure in guiding us to recommend options that would fit our what we were looking for. We couldn’t have been happier. She was such a sweetheart and attentive. We both agreed she was amazing. I highly recommend this place. And of course the food was outstanding. We shared the shrimp platter. We can’t wait to go back!
This is a BYOB so bring your own wine, beer or other adult beverage of your liking. Ambiance was very pretty. I'd recommend getting there early if you enjoy a quieter meal. Our reservation was for 5:30 and we enjoyed a normal dining experience u til about 6:15. The place got really loud as the placed filled up and made it difficult to talk within yelling. Comparable to being at a concert level loud. Food was ok, a bit bland. We took the waitress recommendations as she really talked the food up but what we got was a 3 out of 5. A bit disappointing as we were hoping for real authentic Greek food. The Greek food at Matthews diner in Waldwick was better.

Always excellent. The food and service are simply great. Make a reservation for a booth if you can.

I went there today as a recommendation from a coworker of my brother in law, and was extremely impressed. I ordered the gyro platter, and it was delicious! The homemade tzatiki sauce was the perfect. I will most definitely be returning here.

Everything we had was delicious. The Gyro platter was next level. We had about 8 people in our party and every single person enjoyed the food.
