The Big Greek Cafe - Kensington

Big Greek Cafe has been a staple for many years. Their food is consistent and delicious! Even when having to wait, the wait is short so your food comes out quickly. I normally do takeout but even when ordering in person, there are always several people waiting to be served and sitting while eating. The Wednesday gyro deal is great! I still remember when it used to be $5'

Food is generally pretty tasty but this place smells like sewage most of the time when you walk in!! I've mentioned it to the counter people and they just laugh it off saying they are used to it. They blame their landlord. This has been going on for a long time so when will they address it?? I couldn't eat inside personally.

If you want a quick bite but don't want to get burgers or pizza, The Big Greek Cafe is a no-frills- order-at-counter kind of joint. They offer a variety of Mediterranean food.The generous salads are fresh and can be served with additional meats for a fee.The fried fish fillet and the calamari are crisp without being greasy. The best thing about ordering the entrees is their sides selection.We always get the lemony potatoes and the green beans because they are sooooo good!Staff is friendly and helpful.

Well, it had to happen eventually. According to the restaurant, due to rising costs, the $6 Wednesday gyro is now $7. I'm fine with that. The gyro is so meaty and delicious and the new Wednesday price point still is a deal.

My go-to place when I need a gyro and fries. Never disappoints and service was great too. A little disappointed that its now $20 for gyro, fries, salad, and drink, but inflation sucks for everyone.

Parking is a pain, but the Hercules burger is fantastic and the service is great! Loved everything from here.

They didn't have the Hamlet burger so ordered the option with chicken and avo and there was no avo in the dish which they never said there was no avo. A real take out option. Not authentically Greek. I'm glad we tried it but not for us.

I've had better gyro sandwiches being from Chicago but this was decent. Will I return? Probably...

I recently visited Big Greek Cafe and opted for a to-go order of their Greek Chicken Bowl. The dish was impressively delicious, showcasing authentic Greek flavors. The chicken was tender and well-seasoned, though the sauce was a bit more than my liking - I'll remember to ask for it on the side next time. The pita bread was the perfect accompaniment, adding a delightful softness to the meal. Service was standard and efficient, fitting for a quick pick-up order. Overall, a great experience for anyone seeking a taste of Greece, making Big Greek Cafe a recommendable choice.

We took our swim team here and they handled us really well. It's a nice clean space with enough tables that it's unlikely to be very crowded or loud. I get the sense most people take food out. Food itself is great. I actually laughed when one of our adults got a salad and it had so much gyros on top that you couldn't see any lettuce. Great fries (a must at Greek places) and a wide variety to choose from.
