The Great Greek

We booked this place for an anniversary celebration in December of 2023 for a party of almost 30 people. Service was amazing, they set up 2 separate but next to each other long tables at the end against the wall so we had our own space. Food was amazing and since it was a big party they give you the preset menu. Every food item they brought was perfection and listening to an absolute best live Greek music was the best part of our night. We also ended up dancing right by our tables and it was an amazing evening.

I was looking forward to a great lunch. I ordered the tabbouleh, the spinach spanakopita, and cold combo. My friend ordered the moussaka. The tabbouleh was so small and basically tomatoes. The spanakopita was average and not even hot. Moussaka seemed bland. The food was an utter disappointment.Service was good.

Great experience at the Great Greek!Greeted when we arrived. Busy but only had to wait a few minutes.Clean place with nice decor. Live Greek music on this Saturday night.Warm bread and olive oil while we looked over the menu. We ordered the dolmas, meatballs, veggie platter and pita bread. Everything was fresh and full of flavor.A couple of birthday parties going on, some people got up and started dancing, friendly and festive.Saved room for baklava, also delicious.Highly recommended!

I've been to the Great Greek a couple of times for lunch and have enjoyed the food each time. I've tried the tarama dip with pita, the gyro sandwich and the chicken souvlaki plate. Both were good size portions, and I like that the meals come with soup or salad. They also serve complimentary bread with olive oil. I found the bread to be fresh and soft inside, not dry like in other reviews I read. Service has been a bit slow but it's not a huge deal as I'm not usually in a rush. Parking was easy on side streets on Sundays for lunch. At other times it may be more challenging.

This place has the best Greek music in Los Angeles. The service is phenomenal and the food is okay if you are not too picky.I have been here a few times and every time because of good music I had a great experience.

AUG2024A nice dinner with old friends. Service was friendly and very helpful with any questions, water refills frequent. They had live music playing in another part of the restaurant which was nice. We had gotten the greek caviar tarama to share. I had ordered the greek style vegetarian plate. Everything tasted nice and fresh. I think it just needed a tad more salt though to bring things around for me. The one I liked most was the eggplant though. It wasn't chewy and the flavor was on point. The music they were really getting into it to. I feel like it'd be nice to sit at the bar and take it all in on another occasion.

I came during lunch on the weekend and was seated immediately. Staff is very attentive and friendly. I ordered Avgolemono soup and char broiled chicken breast kebab "souvlaki".The soup was delicious and the chicken was very juicy and flavorful. Can't wait to come back and try more plates.

Simply the best Greek dining experience you can have in Los Angeles. Authentic fresh & house-made food and sauces, consistently prepared. Reasonably priced with large portions. Live dangerously and make sure to order the fried cheese 'Saganaki'. Take a double dose of Statins ahead of time, but so worth it. Arianna bartender/waitress is a gem.

The food is delish! Service was perfect but parking is a challenge.....if you're lucky to find street parking on busy Ventura Blvd great; otherwise be prepared to pay $14 for valet. I still plan to eat at the Great Greek despite the parking challenges .....you can't beat an awesome meal.

Absolutely amazing Greek restaurant! The food is authentic, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The highlight for me was the moussaka--hands down the best I've ever had! The layers of perfectly seasoned ground meat, tender eggplant, and creamy béchamel sauce were cooked to perfection. Every bite was rich, comforting, and full of traditional Greek flavors. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the service was outstanding. If you're a fan of Greek cuisine, this place is a must-visit! I'll definitely be coming back.
