Greek Cuisine
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.

Locally owned, great service, and delicious food! I honestly have no complaints but it could be because I'm use to eating here. They have lamb to die for and spicy samoosas that are finger licking good!!!

I don't live in this area anymore but this place is one that I will not miss. The food quality seemed good as long as you don't look to close at anything or expect any sort of consistency. Our first visit was good but things went steadily downhill from there. This place was hard for me to avoid as it was right below my apartment and very convenient... at first. We used to get the Gyro sandwiches and they would come with different toppings depending on who was working the grill. Some people would put grilled veggies, some would put raw veggies, and others would put a salad mix. We asked the waiter one day why this was and he said it was up to the cook to determine how it was made. I am not sure about anyone else but I like things to be consistent for every visit and not ever changing depending on the mood of the cook. This is also another place that does not know how to clean appropriately. They visible surfaces are clean but the areas underneath counters and in the corners are very dirty. I would not recommend this place at this point....

By far the friendliest service I've ever had in my life, and the food was delicious. I used to go to the Net Café next door, which was also run by Somali immigrants, and was incredibly sad when it shut down. Being in town for a little while, I decided to check out the East Village Grill, almost out of nostalgia, but I will definitely be coming back for this place. You can tell that the restaurant is owned by immigrants, which may be a drawback to some, but for me it is extremely refreshing. The staff seemed as thought they were excited to see me, and I was immediately given a table and menu. I ordered the kofta sandwich, which was served wrapped in pita bread. I got my order in a timely manner and it was delicious. I paid $8 for the sandwich and a drink, which was a great deal. I highly recommend it and will definitely be coming back.

This is my 2nd favorite place to eat in the Elliot Park neighborhood, just behind the Band Box. The location is excellent, directly across from the park, and in the plaza connecting it to the coffee shop; Net Cafe is a nice outdoor seating area. The inside dining atmosphere looks good, great compared to some of you're other options in the immediate area (see my Downtown East/ Elliot Park list), although I've heard from others that the bathrooms are a little dirty. I'm a little afraid to see for myself because I like eating here and would hate to be too grossed out to do so. If you like Gyros this is a good place to get them as they taste great here. Prices are typical for this kind of food and you get a generous helping. A Gyro with fries here will cost you $7.00. Good service, though when I've got my food to go from here I've had to request both ketchup for my fries as well as napkins, which are things you're gonna need. Kinda cheap on thier part, but other than that the service has been fine.

East Village Grill is a great anthropology lesson. The place serves Middle Eastern food, such as hummus and falafel, but is run and patronized by Somali immigrants. It seems like a bustling community gathering spot in a nice area of town. I've been there a few times and the main room is full of young and old Somali men, usually in pairs, chatting, eating and watching whatever sports game is on the tv. There's a separate, curtained-off area for women to dine alone, which is something I've never seen anywhere else in the US, but is fairly common in Islamic countries. I like their falafel sandwich ($5.50 with tax) which is fresh, light and delicately prepared. You can tell their cook takes pride in his workmanship. The pita is soft and wrapped perfectly around the well-seasoned, crunchy-on-the-outside, but soft-on-the-inside falafel, lettuce, tomatoes and tahini. I was not expecting that quality of falafel and I must say it's one of my favorites in the Twin Cities. Go to East Village Grill for a snack and experience a quaint little entry into a vibrant immigrant community.

East Village Grill has a solid gyro-fries lunch special. That's all I've tried in my one visit but it was something I would surely consider having again. They gave me a small bowl of soup 'on the house' while I waited, which was generous. It had some interesting spices in it, with carrots and maybe onion as the only discernable ingredients. The gyro is solidly sized and at first it really made me think favorably when comparing it to some of the best gyros I've had. It's packed with a good amount of meat and veggies, but I did find it a bit dry. There was some cucumber sauce on the bottom but it just didn't moisten it up quite enough. They didn't provide any additional sauce, but I suppose I could have asked. Either way though, it was still good and they give you a heaping amount of fries and a soda for $7. Good deal. The place is a bit dingy but as other reviewers have said, it's got character and an independent vibe. It certainly measures up to the other gyro options around the downtown area.

I've only gotten take out here, but it was awful. I ordered one platter and one dessert and the cashier tried to charge me $30 (it was actually about $16). I told him that it didn't make sense and he reluctantly and doubtfully rang in the order again. It kind of felt like a misogynist disdain for my correction, to be honest. He was also being kind of creepy at the same time... But I'm not going to get into that. And it gets worse! I ordered a veggie platter to go. When I got home, I opened the box to find, literally, a pound, maybe 2, of rice, with some veggies, falafal, and a tiny spoonful of this curry. No hummus, no grape leaves, no other dip (all listed in the description). The food was pretty dry, the only good thing was the eggplant curry. I won't be back here. Disappointing because I live like a block away :'(
