The Best Greek in Baltimore

Samos Restaurant

★★★★★ 4.6 (592) • $$

"What more can I say about this restaurant. The ambiance is pretty good, oldies but goodies, some say it's close to the ambiance you get when you're in Greece. Service was pretty good, but the food is the thing that I kept coming back! All is so delicious and the portions are generous. This is my go to Greek Restaurant."

Yia Yia's Kitchen

★★★★☆ 4.3 (620) • $$

"Great for lunch. My sister treated me. Food was very flavorful. Steak was tender. Rice had a nice flavor, I did not need anything on it. Salad was great. I asked them not to include cucumbers or olives. The salad would've been a little fuller had I not, fyi. Will definitely have them again for lunch. Or maybe dinner."

Xenia Greek Kouzina

★★★★☆ 4.4 (436) • $$$

"Great food and great service at reasonable prices. Nice bar and a decent although relatively short drinks list. Star items:1. Tuna tartare - Wild bigeye tuna tossed with Meyer lemon and Greek extra virgin olive oil with cucumbers, shallots, and avocado mousse. Lots of great flavors and textures. Decent portion size.2. The lamb shank - slow braised. Super tender and flavorful. Paired with orzo and a vegetable stew.Logistics: Plenty of parking. Reservations via Open Table. On line ordering via Toast at https://order.toasttab.com/online/xenia-greek-kouzina-8850-columbia-100-parkway"

Samos Greek Island Grill

★★★★☆ 4.2 (313) • $$

"I have been coming here for years... when they first opened this location I was hoping for a traditional sit-down clone of the original Samos... but in the end this was obviously both the correct business decision and also the best for all of us customers!If you want more formal (but still relaxed) sit-down traditional Greek food, with the wide array of slow cooked and complicated dishes, you should go to the original Samos in Greektown. If you want the faster fare version, either for a casual sit-down or take-away meal, this is the best place for Greek food anywhere in Baltimore.Everything, and I mean everything, on the menu is amazing.In the Greek spreads I recommend the tzatziki or the tapenade, but they're all good.The salads are robust, and if you add protein they can serve very easily as a full meal.The pita wraps are all very well portioned and reasonably priced.The small plates work well for sharing as an appetizer or a side dish, and I in particular love the spanakopita and fried calamari.The platters are my go to for an after workout lunch or a dinner. The vegetarian moussaka is delicious and absolutely worth trying.All of the side dishes are delicious, and it's really a matter of your preference.Adding a grilled souvlaki skewer is really only beneficial if you feel like you need extra protein. The normal portions on the platters and salads and wraps is more than adequate.The one thing I would not strongly recommend are t desserts... It's just not as good as at the traditional restaurant."

The Black Olive

★★★★☆ 3.6 (386) • $$$

"The original Greek seafood on Baltimore and still the best! Before it was trendy it was Black Olive. For over 25 years on Fells Point, Black Olive has served the best and freshest seafood. Staff is terrific. Attentive, friendly, informative, everyone at Black Olive is here to make you feel special. Standouts are the dorade, the bronzino, the eggplant dip, the squid ink pasta (unreal!!) and the lamb chops. nothing will disappoint you. And then the wine list. Varied and extensive and the team is most knowledgeable. We had the treat this last time w Alain serving the wine and Janine serving the food. We were introduced to some great wine recommendations and pairings. It's a must eat and one of the few great Baltimore restaurants that's independent and unique. Enjoy!"

Noras Kabob

★★★★☆ 3.9 (322) • $$

"We had the boxed lunch catering for a corporate event. I chose the chicken kabob. Everything was delicious! I'm not sure if I was eating hummus or eggplant dip but that tasted phenomenal. 4 stars because my food wasn't hot so I imagine I would have given 5 stars if all my items were at temperature. I will definitely plan to visit the actual restaurant in the future."

Never On Sunday

★★★★☆ 3.5 (264) • $

"Ordered a gyros for takeout, and was surprised to open up a pita with a generous helping of... grilled gyros meat strips. They didn't taste bad, but they were jerky-thin and pretty dry, as if they'd been waiting for a while. And when a place talks up their "Greek specialties" and charges ten and a half bucks for a gyros, I figure it might be sliced off a big spit. I figured wrong. The menu photo shows tomato slices, but the actual sandwich had a generous helping of fixed tomatoes and red onions. To their credit, the sandwich was served on a compostable clamshell... but it's a gyros, so it might as well just be wrapped in paper and foil."

Mrs. K's Motel and Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.8 (222) • $

"Hidden Gem! Totally the best service and food along 301S. I've been coming here for years and although a wait, NEVER a disappointment. From breakfast to lunch I have never had a "bad" meal. The cost point is also nostalgic, pocket friendly. If you're ever looking for a guaranteed great meal and service - STOP BY!"

Konstantine’s Greek Taverna

★★★★☆ 4.2 (179) • $$$

"What wonderful Greek food! From the falafels to the gyro to the salads - everything was delicious. We came in the middle of a Sunday afternoon with no reservations and they seated us without an issue. Our waiter was very patient with us and kept checking on us. Would have loved to sit outside, but there was a Baby shower going on outside."

Chris' Charcoal Pit

★★★★☆ 3.8 (186) • $$

"My first visit to Chris' Pit and it was exceptional. I don't know how we got the best server but He was dynamic. It was a special occassion and I had dinner with my son, his date & my wife. The meal was less than $100 and with the delicious food we got it was a steal. I was impressed with the servers way of hadnling the order and the way it was delivered. Also, while we were finishing up our meal, the female server stopped and picked up finished plates and glasses it seem very effecient. Plus we were served so much we had to get three take bowls to bring home."

Jiffy Shoppes Restaurants

★★★★☆ 3.7 (178) • $

"Immaculate Portion sizes ! For $15 and some change you get ALOT of food! Like 2/3 lbs lol We're very generous with the ranch amount I didn't get a fork which had me upsetti spaghetti but thankfully I ate at homeThe owner is very genuine to his customers ! Was sad they didn't have cheesecake - please bring that back"

Gyroland

★★★★☆ 3.7 (168) • $$

"Not the first time here but love it every time we come. The food is delicious!!! We order a platter for two and always take quarter of it home. Meat is always fresh, onions are well seasoned (like it used to be at home - Central Asia), fries are homemade and bread is always fresh. Yummy!! They have a seating area for dine-in, small cute blue square tables for 2-4 people. Perfect for kids (have high chairs). Plenty of parking. A good place for a quick (not quick read below;) bite, pick-up and local foodies. The only downside is that you have to buy water (they don't provide water or even cups for drinks you buy). They are very slow with cleaning tables, and prep orders for dine-in. We always wait for at least 35-40 min to get our food. The cashier(maybe manager maybe owner) never smiles, never follows up, so be prepared for it. Will I come back? Definitely for food not the service. At the end of the day, the taste is what matters."

Yeeros

★★★★★ 4.6 (99)

"Wow! This place is hands down one of the best Greek in fed hill! The ladies were so nice and the food was sensational! I enjoyed how super clean the restaurant was inside and out and the food was so good! It came out fast and the prices are very affordable! I highly recommend coming here with some friends especially for lunch."

Yasou Greek Bistro

★★★★☆ 3.6 (147) • $$

"Ordered the chicken souvlaki which was served with greek salad, tzatziki, pita and I ordered a side of greek fries. The food was well portioned for the price. The service was friendly and relatively quick. The inside of the restaurant is casual and simple. They are a BYOB restaurant with a $2 corking fee. Large parking lot in a shopping center."

Maria D's Sub Shop

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (173) • $$

"I am ashamed to admit that I have never had Maria D's pizza. I've had the subs and they are fantastic... but this pie was everything! I asked them to make it well done and it was perfect! The dough is flaky almost like a pastry and so flavorful I was over the moon. If you're craving Za, go to the best!!! Maria D's Fed Hill. No pics , because I tore into it immediately!!! Lol, next time!!!!"

Estiatorio Plaka

★★★★★ 4.5 (87)

"We visited this restaurant twice in one week. So surprised by what is inside. A cute bakery in the front then a full blown restaurant in the back. Well decorated. Sat at the bar each time. Happy Hour is a nice touch!"

Romilo's

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (148) • $$

"Fun spot with really good pizza. Jen (my bartender) made the best Long Island! They were setting up for a band so there's live music and it was very clean. Will be back!"

Samos Greek Island Grill

★★★★☆ 4.4 (86) • $$

"Fantastic Greek food! Love the skewers, fresh corn during the summer, fries, pita and salads. You can order ahead and grab and go!"

My Three Sons

★★★★☆ 3.6 (127) • $$

"Always fast, friendly and on time. I've never had a bad meal or poor customer service experience. I've also dined inside the restaurant, very clean, larger than I expected, beautiful inside, parking and overall just a great experience in a local community."

Mr. Souvlaki

★★★★☆ 4.4 (73) • $$

"I came here based on Facebook buzz. They weren't wrong. This place has the absolute best calamari I've ever tasted in my life, and my 8 year old daughter agrees.Also had the gyro wrap. The picture says it all. AMAZING.We will definitely return."

A One Pizza & Grill

★★★★☆ 3.8 (66) • $$

"First visit. I came for the crazy fries...no... I came to pick up a menu, but I stayed for the delicious Indian food. When I got there, I was greeted by a smiling Milan who assisted me in placing my order and oozing customer service with a twinkle in his eye..great customer service, great sense of humor and looks almost as good as the foodChef Kul expertly prepared homemade Vegetable Samosas, Chicken MoMo, and Vegetable Fritters--ALL FROM SCRATCH!!!Everyone loves a young man with excelkent cooking skills and a job...Now Chef Julieta, is in charge of the Crazy Fries....lot's of cheese...whats not to like?!All I have to say is that this is my go to place in Baltimore for mouth watering Indian/Nepalese/American food done right and I highly recommend them."

The Sweet Greek Grill

★★★★☆ 4.4 (43)

"I was so impressed with my carry-out order, I can't wait to go back to get more! A little pricey, but the flavor was amazing and made it all worth it. I had never had Dolmades before, but thank goodness I was willing to try something new because it was amazing! I'll probably get this again the next time I order too. I heated some of the leftover dolmades the next day and they were still great. The gyro pita was much bigger than expected, and delicious. I got the baklava, and it was just as tasty as everything else. I'm so thankful I moved near the Sweet Greek Grill so I can keep coming back! Looking forward to trying new things."

My Three Sons

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (48) • $

"I've stopped in a few times to buy their amazing tzatziki for my own souvlaki, but this was the first time I've had their pizza. My brother picked up a 16" pizza with pepperoni and black olives, and the smell alone just about did me in. The crust was very thin and slightly charred, yet tasty and "yeasty." This tiny restaurant is in "downtown Churchville," (if you've been there, you'll understand why I put it in quotes) and it's a little hard to get in and out, especially if you're turning left on Churchville Road. I think it's worth it, though. We're already planning our next order."

Dimitri's Restaurant & Carry Out

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (41) • $

"Good reliable food at good prices. My go to is the cheeseburger sub with everything on it a d french fries I would recommend this spot to anyone"

Humitos Grill Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4 (24)

"This is not the hole in the wall Greek places I'm used to. Humitos is a fantastic restaurant with great interior space. We ordered the beef and lamb gyro sandwich and a Greek salad with falafel on it. The sandwich had great flavor but it was so loaded with lettuce and tomatoes that it was essentially a salad with some meat at the bottom. I'm also used to double the meat on my gyro sandwiches, this one was a bit hidden. The Greek salad was exactly what we were expecting but they didn't include the black olives which is a BIG deal for a Greek salad and what my wife and daughter loves the most.I'm excited to try something else like maybe the moussaka would be better? But the sandwiches I'll pass on next time."

Eat Like A Greek

★★★★☆ 3.9 (15)

"In an area with plenty of Greek restaurants, this place stands out. I can get a gyro practically anywhere, but these were hands down the best I've ever had. The meat had a nice sear on the outside while still being tender. The flavor was great. The pita tasted fresh, and the tzatziki was the perfect flavor and consistency. If you want an amazing gyro, you have to try this place!"

Sherwood Carry Out

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (27)

"I ain't gonna lie... I usually Hate carryout pizza however I just ate the best damn Sausage pizza from Sherwood carryout tonite. Now I don't know if it's because I live right down the street and very hot and fresh however it was DELISH!!!"

Marathon Deli

★★★★☆ 3.5 (17)

"Great food!! Their gyros are hard to beat! Also, must try their funnel cake fries. Everything we try here is always delicious and tastes fresh. Prices are also very reasonable. This is our go to."

Mr. Souvlaki

★★★★★ 4.6 (9)

"I stopped at lunch time just to sample the food at Mr. Suvlaki. I ordered a traditional gyro which is made with shaved pork. I learned that lamb and beef gyros are an American adaptation of the original Greek dish. I also ordered dolmades which were nearly the best I have ever tasted. I was greeted by a very nice young lady who was a good sport about my being me. She stated that they've been in business in the Forest Hill location for about 22 years. They offer quite a selection of olives and olive oils. The remainder of the place is just a cleaned up version of the previous business.I want to encourage all you foodies in Perry Hall to come out and try Mr Souvlaki. They deserve your business and Perry Hall deserves another great restaurant."

Casa Bistro

★★★★☆ 4 (6)

"Anytime the owner goes above and beyond to earn a first time customer's favor these actions must be told about! I'm in Aberdeen and unexpectedly have to be here until tomorrow without leaving. Owner Lav accommodated a delivery for me personally without my asking! Not to mention the Spanish rice bowl was bursting with layers of flavors in the chicken, rice and fresh veggies. My friend raved about her coconut shrimp. Definitely will call this restaurant again!"
