Greek Diners (San Antonio, Anton: live, restaurants, shop)

[Irishtom29]

Are there any Greek diners in town, especially on the South Side?

Define diner. There are plenty of Greek restaurants in town. Some are sit-down places (John the Greek and Zorba's) and some have counter service (Demo's and Papouli's).

If diner means very small restaurant with booths and a lunch counter, I'm not sure I can think of any places like that in SA.

Mina and Dimi's Greek House
7159 W US Highway 90
San Antonio, TX 78227

That's the furthest south Greek food that I can think of.

Thanks for the responses.

By Greek Diner I don’t mean a Greek ethnic restaurant but a diner—coffee shop kind of place. Like a Denny’s but local and run by Greeks.

We don’t have any of those. That I know of.

Not that I'm aware of. And I've lived in New Jersey, so Greek diners are on my radar.

I never knew there was something unique about a Greek coffee shop. What are they like?

Think of Denny’s but with better food. Wide variety of breakfasts. And a few Greek dishes—Greek chicken, Greek pork chops, gyros platter maybe, baklava for dessert. Often there’s a big dessert case full of cakes and pies.

My favorite was Huck Finn on the South Side. Of Chicago.
