Greek Islands

I recently got takeout from this Omaha favorite. Overall, it was a very satisfying meal. The souvlaki was absolutely amazing--tender, flavorful chicken with garden veggies and tzatziki sauce. My only suggestion would be to include a second piece of pita bread, as one isn't quite enough to balance the amount of chicken and veggies. And the feta stix appetizer was a fun and creative twist on mozzarella sticks, with a nice crispy exterior and a rich, cheesy center. The Greek Islands is a solid choice for a quick, flavorful meal. I'll definitely be back,especially to dine inside for the flaming saganaki!

My husband and I got takeout from Greek Islands Saturday night and it reminded me why I looooove this place so much and why I need to go back more often!I usually love getting the saganaki, but I feel like that's an app that you really need to dine in to be able to experience fully when they light it on fire. Instead we tried the feta sticks with both the tomato and raspberry sauces. I additionally got the vegetarian moussaka - one of my personal favorites!The feta sticks were SO good! There were four to an order and they were super thick and cheesy! The batter was very crispy and satisfying and the salty feta went AMAZING with the sweet raspberry sauce. It was good with the tomato sauce as well, but the raspberry was definitely my choice - I would highly recommend this combination!One of the reasons I absolutely love Greek Islands is because they offer traditional Greek foods as veggie versions, like moussaka and pastichio - something that has been very hard to find at other places. I prefer the moussaka because I love eggplant over mushrooms, but both are delicious and the layer of bechamel really makes both! The flavors are warm and cozy and the serving size is big and very filling.Whenever I dine in, I usually get the baklava a la mode, so I look forward to eating there soon and having an ouzo cocktail with my meal!

Best Greek in Omaha! I love their huge selection of Greek classics- I'm obsessed with their moussaka. It's creamy and hearty. They rock their seasoned potatoes. The side salad that comes with most meals is just as good as the meal. You need to add the cheese and olives and order the house dressing!! They have the best portions sizes for meals, salads, and appetizers. They have fresh falafel and an amazing veggie platter. You can peek inside the kitchen and watch the meat cook. I love the painting on the walls that add to the Greek feel. There are plenty servers and they're always nice and fast. Don't forget to end the meal with their amazing selection of desserts and wash it down with Greek wine from the bar!

Outstanding staff! Attentive and provided great table service. As far as the food...I'd say it was just OK. I was expecting a greek salad, but it was just lettuce and their homemade dressing. The lamb was just too gamey for my taste. The only saving grace was their Tirokafteri (spicy feta dip). It was really good and definitely recommend it.

I always enjoy Greek Islands! It's my favorite Greek restaurant next to Jim and Jenny's. I usually get the same two things but decided to try something new this time. I got the mini chicken gyros. They were the perfect size and packed full of goodness way easier to eat than the big ones. Next time around I would just order a chicken gyro because it is cheaper than the minis but they were still great. My boyfriend got the mad Greek! That will definitely MJ new go-to. So many flavors and - good mix between the meat, lettuce and pita bread. It came with Jalapenos, onions, melted feta and spicy tzatziki sauce. I only want the spicy tzatziki sauce from now on. my other go-tos are the Athenian salad add chicken. I always get the small, which is huge! And the chicken supreme! And DON'T FORGET the Baklava is always a must.

If you want some great greek food, this is your spot. Service was great during lunch even when busy. My gyro was very big and good. This restaurant has been around for a long time and continues to be a destination worth going to. The decor makes you feel like you took a flight to Paros.

Seriously, just come eat here. It's closer than you think and you deserve a great Greek food experience.Servers are friendly and pretty quick. Nice decor. They have a decent bar and some interesting authentic Greek liquors and drinks.Menu is excellent. Opa!

My new found favorite Mediterranean restaurant in Omaha. Every time I get the chance to come here it takes me back to my vacation in Greece a couple of summers ago. The staff is always very welcoming and pleasant which is a great bonus too.

The whole atmosphere ! The food best authentic Greek food since leaving Greece ! Owners are so friendly , huge portions ! Home away from what was my home many years ago ! Opa !!!!

A couple weeks back, I went for dinner after work. I was tired and I just wanted my favorite appetizer and the dolmathes entree. I wasn't expecting a large serving of the entree. It was served without the side and salad and based on the price I expected there would be less pieces than the full dinner included. But I was shocked that I only got one tiny dolmathe. It was two bites. It was 4.50$ for two bites. I drive past them on my way home from work and I love close by and every time I see them I get angry over and over again. So I've been telling everyone I know. It isn't worth it. If it is so expensive to make that one tiny dolmathe costs 4.50$ then maybe it is time to just remove them from the menu.
