Willy's Eatery

I have to thank my fellow Yelpers for their reviews for Willy's Eatery. That's what brought me in to try them out. I was specifically looking for a lunch special and they came up on Yelp after someone posted their gyro and Greek salad combo for $7.00. Well that price was almost a decade old. As we all know prices have gone up significantly in recent years. However that didn't stop me from trying out Willy's.Willy's is located in a 70's era strip mall where Thriftyland Disney discount souvenir store and an In and Out is located. Don't be tempted to chuck out your new experience and jump in the drive through at In and Out. As I pulled up to Willy's a woman was leaving and I asked her if she had just eaten there and she told me she's been going there for years as it's been serving the community for over 3 decades. The restaurant is not very big and the decor with the faux tin pressed tiles on the ceiling and the counter to order at gave off a bit of an old fashioned ice cream shop. I was greeted when I walked in and promptly ordered the gyro sandwich and Greek salad combo which cost close to $13.00. Not bad for a healthy choice for lunch. I'm not a fan of tomato so I requested none on my sandwich or salad. The food came out very quickly with the salad first and it looked great. It had red onion, cucumber, and feta cheese throughout. The dressing was a red vinegar balsamic that was fantastic. It was a lunch sized serving which was perfect. The gyro came out a few minutes later which the pita bread was soft and warm and without the tomatoes it was a very basic gyro with the lone meat and a small serving of tzatziki sauce on the side. I placed some of my salad on the sandwich and viola it was delicious. I enjoyed my lunch at Willy's and will venture back to try other items on the menu. They specialize in breakfast and burgers as well. I hope you enjoy this independently owned non corporate restaurant and support the hard working crew behind the counter at Willy's Eatery in Anaheim.

If you're craving an eggs Benedict that'll make your taste buds sing, Willy's Eatery is where it's at! Tucked away in a cozy outdoor food court, this spot might not win awards for ambiance, but trust me, the food more than makes up for it.The eggs Benedict was perfection: creamy hollandaise sauce draped over perfectly poached eggs with just the right hint of paprika. The hash brown potatoes? Crispy, golden, and loaded with sautéed peppers and onions--absolute heaven. It's the kind of breakfast that makes you forget everything else around you.While the setting is more casual and laid-back, the friendly vibe and killer food make Willy's a must-visit for breakfast lovers. If you're in the area, treat yourself--you won't regret it!

diverse menu! food was good! you can sit and dine-in or order at the counter to-go.ordered some eggs benedict and bacon (:

I checked this place out due to my brother's recommendation and due to the positive Yelp reviews. TBH, the outside surrounding location looks a bit rough, so I would venture to this location only during the day time lol.I got the eggs benedict and a breakfast burrito (because I am basic). I have to say that the eggs benedict is one of the best I've had recently. Yolk was runny and gooey, and the meat was juicy and flavorful. The breakfast burrito was good, but not the best that I've had. Contents were juicy and not too oily. I think they could put in a bit more filling. Most places also include some sort of small side which would be a good complement to this dish. There's a decent amount of seats inside the restaurant. There was always people coming in and out which speaks to the popularity of the place. You can also order to go which is convenient. Staff was nice which is a plus. Check this place out if you are craving for some brunch fusion foods.

The food & service is wonderful. The people there are very friendly. The food is easy to order online.

We came to this small gem for breakfast and have also enjoyed it for lunch. I would highly recommend this mom and pop place because it has wonderful food and very hard working staff. A mix of American and Greek foods makes it a great space with a variety of food choices.

I've been here a couple of times for breakfast. It's a nice little place with family atmosphere. Many diners have been coming here for years and the workers all know them. The food is delicious too. They are in a run down shopping center but don't let that scare you. You will be happy when you get your food.

Boy did this hit the spot! Blueberry pancakes, chorizo omelette, crispy hashbrowns and a side of bacon. Everything was delicious! The staff was friendly and the place was nice and clean. Definitely want to come back and try out more items on the menu. We actually had a difficult time choosing because everything sounded and looked so good. Lots of posters and the revolving digital images on the menu really got our attention.

Good, basic Greek food with a lot of other dishes on their menu thrown in for good measure. We wanted Greek. Not Mediterranean, not Persian...you know...there is a difference. And Willie's reviews sounded right on. So, while being briefly distracted by their unique Eggs Benedict menu, the spinner wheel finally landed on the gyros and lamb kefta plates for us. The biggest surprise was the huge bowl of lovely Greek salad that came out first. Heaps of goodies on it - tomato, cucumber, onion, feta, Greek olives, tossed in a light dressing of olive oil and basalmic vinegar. My only wish was for more dressing, which I only had to ask for, and it was cheerfully delivered.Each platter arrived with a generous mound of buttered rice and a small 2 oz cup of their famous homemade chicken broth, which I unceremoniously dumped over my rice. (Since I've never been here before, I was winging it.) Good stuff!The gyros pita wrap was delicious. The ingredients were nice. I believe the gyros meat was a blend of beef and lamb. I just wish there had been a bit more meat for the price we paid. The pita was warmed on the griddle, and it had a crispiness around the edges that I loved. The tsaziki was well made and excellent tasting.The kafta meatballs were quite lamb-y and garlicky, but in a good way. We both love lamb in most any way, shape, or form, and they did it well.There are a few small tables right outside the entry, nothing fancy. So I checked to make sure we could bring our little Rosey, chihuahua extraordinaire. They are dog friendly. As for her share of the booty she has come to expect, she gave her two paw stamp of approval.Willy's is located in an aging strip mall in dire need of a face lift, so have no expectations of fine dining and valet parking here. Just expect good food, cheerfully delivered. We would return if we were in the area.

A wonderful cozy place with the extensive menu of options to choose from. With the excellent friendly helpful staff who is eager to check on you. Foods are delicious as well. I am looking forward to come back and try some of their Greek dishes and more
