I have ordered their Greek salad and chicken, as well as their club sandwich. I ordered it to be delievered which took about an hour and to compensate they told me the next order would be on them. I oredered about a week later and to my surprise they didnt charge me for my entire order. Found the owners Nick and I believe Gus to be very nice gentlemen. I did not care for their chicken wings, a bit to greasy but the rest of the food was delicious. I will order again!!

My family and I went there last week. What a mistake! I was the only one that ordered one of their Greek specialties (a gyro). The rest of my family ordered ribs or breakfast. Everyone's meal came out except for my gyro. The cook and waitress told me to wait an extra ten minutes, but then the cook came back to tell me to order something else. If this is a Greek Diner, shouldn't gyros be the easiest thing to serve? I was upset, so the cook picked out chicken souvlaki for my meal. It was good, but not what I wanted. They comped the meal, and they were nice about it. They gave us a large piece of homemade baklava. The cloves and overuse of butter made the layers soggy and taste like Christmas ham. I wouldn't go back. A positive note: My in-laws always have a great experience when they go. I guess it is either hit or miss.

Pros: Nice people, good prices
Cons: Everything else

I am confused, what didn't you like? they comped your meal , in your own words "It was good" . As far as the Baklava I am a Greek and I eat there at least 3 times a week. Their Greek desserts are the best in Charlotte, every other place I have been to uses the frozen stuff. These people make it fresh 2 - 3 times a week . and just becuase they serve a few greek dishes doesn't make them a " Greek restuarant". When a Restaurant runs out of something it usually means they sell alot of it and that it's fresh because they dont over stock. I understand your disapointment in not having what you craved but that isnt a good eneough reason to write a place off. Go back and you will see You will become a Rigas Junkie as I am

lmao!!!
