I was in the mood for Greek and didn't want to drive fat. I remembered this place had recently opened and was somewhat close to home. I placed an order for pick up: a falafel wrap with a side of Greek salad. I arrived about 15 minutes later. One of the staff members told me to wait at one part of the restaurant without acknowledging me, but the woman who took my order immediately realized that I had placed a pick up order and stated she was putting my order together. As she was ringing me up, she told me she included a side of hummus. How nice, I thought. I opened my to go container and saw the wrap and a huge portion of a Greek salad. When I got home and further inspected my order, there were a ton of onions on the salad. Yes, it was a huge portion for a side, but a lot of onions and not enough potato salad and tomatoes. The tomatoes also did not seem very ripe. It was an okay salad overall, but I've had better and tastier Greek salads. I tried the side of hummus because I planned on putting it on my wrap, but it was so bland. I didn't end up having a lot of it. The pita wrap was meh. It didn't taste very fresh, but it was grilled. The falafel was somewhat hard and also didn't taste as fresh. It did have good flavor to it, though. I enjoyed the tzatziki thought the flavor was good as well. The tomatoes on the wrap were the same as on the salad - not very fresh. I really wanted to like this place because it is close to home, but it was average at best. My advice for this place is to have fresher ingredients. If these improvements are made, I may consider returning.

Not impressed. Overpriced for the amount of food you receive. Like most others have said, the Greek salad needed more potato salad, and the gyro definitely needed more meat. Not worth the money. I did try the baklava and it was alright. I wish it was a little bit bigger. I probably won't return because of the cleanliness of this location. One of the cooks kept wiping the sweat off of his forehead WITH GLOVES ON! And he kept using the same gloves! Yuck.

This is the newest (and now my favorite) Little Greek location. I stopped by on a Sunday afternoon. I was greeted with a smile and a friendly face. I decided what to get for my work lunch and was in and out in under 5 minutes. The customer service went above and beyond. As I was leaving the cashier even went out into the dining room to explain the food and concept to a confused looking elderly couple. If you haven't had Little Greek food yet, you are missing out. I've tried a lot of their menu and loved everything, but the Gyro and the Greek Salad are my favorite. They have the best Gyro out of all the Greek places in the area that I have tried. The meat is really well seasoned and always cooked perfectly, they use fresh veggies and the Tzatziki Sauce is incredible. The Greek salad is traditional with creamy potato salad, loads of feta, thick cucumbers, Pepperocinis, tomato wedges and beets (I believe it also comes with onion and green peppers, but I always get it without those). I am not a beet lover, but they go really well with the salad. You can also add meat to your salad for an up charge. The dressing is made in house and you can taste the difference. Yum. This location also has the biggest and nicest dining room out of the three locations I have been to (St. Pete, South Tampa and Largo). I love the large blue hanging lights. Little Greek definitely has some of the best "fast food" out there. Now that I have discovered this new and better location, I will be visiting often.

Very good hummus and falafel. Service is prompt and accurate. Good selection of Mediterranean food.

Food is over priced and they have cut back on their portions. I've been getting a Greek salad each time and the last 3-4 times I've gotten it they put less vegetables and less potato salad. The location on Ulmerton is much better. This place probably won't make it...too much competition

The gyro was delicious. The fries were a bit greasy and not crispy at all but still had good flavor. It would be nice to have more meat in the gyro but they were very tasted and I'll be back!

I love Greek good food, even moderately good Greek food. This, as much as I was looking forward to it, was neither. In fairness, there are some things right with Little Greek. I ordered a gyro and a side Greek salad.. which cost another $2. My wife ordered a Felafel in pita and a side of Tzatziki. We both had water to drink. The gyro was good, but lacking, as other reviewers have said, in gyro meat. The ingredients were good, however and it was a decent sandwich. The mini-Greek salad was somewhat of a pleasant surprise, although it was doused in dressing. The tomato wedges were fresh and large, the lettuce was varied and fresh, there was a bit of potato salad, several cucumber slices, olives and plenty of feta crumbled on top. For the record, the feta didn't seem to have much flavor. The Tzatziki was good too, albeit served in one of those tiny plastic sauce containers. It seemed to have good garlic flavor although I think it was made with sour cream rather than yogurt. Americans have gotten used to it that way, I think. The pita was sliced properly and warmed. All this would have made for an adequate meal, at least 3 stars, were it not for the following. My wife's Felafel was just bloody awful. When she went back to the counter to complain, a woman who identified herself as the manager said that she didn't like felafel. (Ummm, why exactly is this germane to the issue?) When my wife repeated herself, she said that she was the only one who had complained. She was evidently questioning whether she was telling the truth about the felafel. is that really professional? I was surprised I didn't see smoke come out of my wife's ears after that highly unprofessional remark. Having overheard the entire conversation, I reached over and cut one of the remaining felafel pieces on her plate: it was like a rock. When I cut it, it crumbled. When I scooped it up with some sauce and tasted it, it was overcooked and dry and of an almost a sandy consistency. There is no possible way that this was something which should have been served. When my wife came back to the table, I asked her if she wanted me to remake the point and she said yes. Very politely, I approached the counter and tried to involve the one identified as the manager in a quiet and civil conversation considering the inadequacy of the felafel. She repeated that she didn't like it herself (I don't really care! You are the manager in charge of overseeing that the food is properly prepared!) but that she would NOW exchange it for a dessert or something else. I turned and asked my wife, but she was already past the point of being accommodated. I really don't blame my wife: the manager should have offered either a full replacement or her money back when she first complained. I kept my temper in check, but when we left, I was NOT happy. Lastly, this place is far too expensive for cafeteria style food. Next time, Athenian Gardens.

The food was good, but unfortunately the service was lousy. I waited over 30 minutes for a salad to go.

Summed up in one-word: expensive. For what you get, I was very underwhelmed. I got a salad (6.49) and asked for half chicken and half gyro meat on top of it...very little of both thrown on there and ended up being about $13...why? because they charged me full price for chicken and gryo meat (2.49 and 2.99 respectively). I'm not one to complain in person and I'm not complaining here but that's a bit excessive for a salad. Even for one meat, lets say chicken...you're already at $9 for a salad....a salad....with chicken. I liked it better when it was Mo'Ziki and got a lot more for the money.

I don't know, maybe it's unit in the strip mall. But, every time I've left this storefront whether its Mo' Ziki or Little Greek, I feel underwhelmed by the food I've just paid for. It's more about quantity than quality vs price point. Every thing tasted good, not exceptional, but good. But, not a lot of it. Gyro Pita had good flavor but rather skimpy on the Gyro meat, and nothing on the side. I mean could have put a dollop of potato salad or added some fries. Everything else was an up-sale, for $2.00 more. I will say it is much better than Mo'Ziki IMHO, of which I wasn't a fan of. I was impressed that the owner Tom W. made his presence known to me, which I think is always a good touch to any business. With so many good Mom and Pop Greek restaurants in Largo, I feel there is better value elsewhere.

This place is a little gem. Spotless, friendly, excellent Greek Salad. I ordered the large to-go hoping to feed 3 as a side. There was plenty left for later. And they don't skimp on the good stuff. We tore into it before I could take a photo. I will be back for more!

I was in Bardmoor area and decided to try Little Greek. It was about 330pm so only one other couple in the place. I ordered to go of a chicken souvlaki and side Greek for $9.00. Chicken was precook end and reheated but tasted pretty good and side Greek salad was good but one scoop of potato salad was more like a tablespoon of potato salad. Food was good as a whole but when I walked out of the place I noticed it looked like it needed a good scrubbing and sanitary measures by employees could be improved. Kitchen floor dirty, tables dirty while two employee sat and ate. I'm not sure if I will go back.

They are so nice here. I'm Greek, I've worked at Greek restaurants and eaten the good and the bad. This place does Greek food justice. Their food is very good. I love their village salad with gyro meat, or just the gyros. Their dressing is great and their tzatziki is good. Why I am writing this review is because although their customer service is always good, tonight they blew me away. Justin helped us when we came in ten minutes before closing and he was so pleasant. He didn't rush plus or seem annoyed we were in so late. He took our order and took his time with us. I can't say how nice it felt to be valued as a customer. Way to go Little Greek. Justin is the man! Great employee. Don't ever lose him.

Greek food is a fine melody of the finest pressed olive oil, fresh fermented bread, colorful vegetables, juicy meat, sea food all cooked in spices and fresh rosemary. The people from Greek were great scholars who aimed to excel in everything they do. The results are quite visible in their food as they are the inventors of olive oil which is beneficial to health. Greeks also made different type of wines from the best quality of grapes fermented in controlled environment.
Today, you can find hundreds of restaurants offering authentic Greek food or popularly termed as Mediterranean cuisine in New York city alone. People wait in line to taste the exotic Greek dishes like saganaki, taramasalata, souvlaki, loukoumades, spanakopita, moussaka, and many more. One thing which most people like about these authentic Greek dishes is abundant use of lemon juice, olive oil, fresh rosemary and sea salt. A smart mix of few ingredients can virtually take you on the pebble streets of beautiful city of Greece.
For those who don't have time to enjoy fine dining should try tasting the famous souvlaki with pita which is type of meat dish, also a trademark Greek fast food. For those who are vegetarian, or vegan can try different versions of Greek Salad. So, if you wish to enjoy a hearty yet healthy meal that tastes divine then try dining at the best Greek restaurant in your city. Greek cuisine not only tastes good but also help maintain your body in a natural way through healthy diet.
