Overall, the food was a mixed bag and I got the Mad Greek plate. The green beans remind me of high school but not in a good way. The rice was slightly undercooked and a bit too salty. On the bright side, the rest of the food was delicious.

I stopped in a couple evenings ago before going to a show while I was in Lawrence. I've been a couple times before & went this time just for the limoncello cake. I ended up also getting the toasted ravioli. It was not very much for the price, but it was good. The cake was DELICIOUS just like it always is. My server was super sweet and the restaurant, while obviously a little old, is very clean and cozy. I'll be back, if just for the cake.

I visited Lawrence for the first time and met some friends at the Mad Greek. What a great recommendation! The restaurant had a nice patio and indoor seating. Parking is metered in front but there is a 2 hour free lot behind. Be sure to order the Saganaki (flaming cheese) appetizer because when your server brings the cheese to your table and lights it on fire the whole restaurant shouts "opa!" The gyros and dolmades are also not to be missed.

Food ... a lot to be desired. Nothing to do with real authentic Greek food. Service ... indifferent staff. Don't recommend at all.

Location: Mass street. Downtown LawrenceAmbiance: This is a nice restaurant with indoor and outdoor sitting. Inside the restaurant, they have multiple paintings and sculptures ( watch my video)Food: they offer Italian and Greek options. The lasagna plate is popular, but my honest recommendation is to stay with Greek food. Italian food is not the best here ( or anywhere in Lawrence). Greek food is diverse and goes beyond the popular gyros.Service: This place can get crowded, especially during dinner time. Service is great. I recommend Spanakopita for a vegetarian option

We went there for lunch on a Thursday. Initial ordering was a little slow but nothing to ruin the overall experience. I got the Gyro sandwich daily special and my son got a burger. Our server checked with me to see if I wanted the salad immediately or with the rest of the meal.The salad was flavorful and obviously extremely fresh. The meat in the Gyro was the most tender meat I've ever had at a Greek restaurant. The tzatziki sauce was excellent. The burger was cooked to the proper doneness and was inhaled so I'm guessing it was good. HA! Definitely a place to go if you enjoy Greek food and find yourself in downtown Lawrence.
