This little restaurant offers an excellent variety of dishes. From your generic gyros to the more authentic octopus dishes (forgot the name, but it is amazing). All the dishes leave you craving for more Greek food.
Atmosphere and decor are clean and simple, and overall make you feel like you are dining in Mediterranean settings. There are both indoor and outdoor seatings available.
Highly recommended.
I was really craving Greek food, so after a Yelp search, we ended up at this little gem. It's a bit far from our house, but it was worth the drive.
This cute little restaurant offers indoor seating as well as an outdoor patio area in the back. It was a little warm out, so we opted to eat indoors, this time. I'm all about al fresco dining when the weather is right.
My husband and I started off with an order of the Spanakopita. It was just okay, compared to other places I've tried it at. Not as flaky or flavorful. For my entree I ordered the Moscharaki Youvetsi which is baked beef with tomatoes, herbs, and cheese served over orzo. Yum! It was exactly what I was craving. The orzo was cooked perfectly, the sauce was seasoned well and the cheese was delicious. Â My husband ordered the Gyro plate and he loved it. The lamb was tender and flavorful. Â The only negative was that the lemon roasted potatoes he got as his side weren't hot enough. Everything else was served nice and hot though.
My husband drinks a lot of water, and while the water cups were small here, they did a great job keeping them full for us. The service was friendly and attentive. It wasn't very busy this evening, so I can't say whether the service is as good on a busier night. Prices weren't bad and the servings were generous. I know we'll be back.
I am not familiar with Greek food but will try anything once. Â So far every time I eat at this restaurant, I am happy with my new adventure of food! Â
But I am a huge hummus fan and this place makes it the best. Â Hands down the best hummus in Bergen County. Â I have stopped here on my way home from work just to get an appetizer of the hummus to last me all week because it really is that good!!
I go here when I'm meeting my brother and sister-in-law for dinner. Â The food is very good and the service is nice. Â The ambience is what's lacking. Â It's more like a store than a restaurant - very bright, even at dinner. Â
We had a party of 6 and the bill came to $159 - we ordered quite a bit for the table. Â I had grilled sardine, which I love. Â Everyone in our party liked their food.
I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys a good greek meal. Â It's very reasonable.
I have been to this restaurant about 5 times now and have had a wonderful experience. The food is really great. I am a Greek that grew up in Astoria, eating at the best authentic restaurants. I was so missing the food when I moved up to rockland. I am so happy we found this restaurant. From the appetizers to the galaktoboureko, I have not one complaint. One of the best dishes is the fisherman's platter which consists of grilled octopus, calamari and calamari. So tender and flavorful. The lamb souvlaki is also delicious. Â One of my favorite restaurants. Try it out and you won't be disappointed. By the way it's bring your own so don't forget to bring your favorite beverage!
Review Source:From outside it may seem like a small Gyro spot like most Greek spots but this place is rather gourmet in its fare. They have all your typical Greek favorites but the fish selection is serious and what makes this place stand out. Bronzino and many others offered daily! as chalkboard specials, unlike most Greek spots. Their Gyro and Chicken kababs sandwich are really good too! Family Run! The fresh fish dishes are priced like gourmet restaurants but so worth trying.
Review Source:We ordered Greek Corner Grill take out. 2 salads and a Tyrokafteri Dip. $38?! Seems really pricey for what we got. The Gyro meat was good on the salad. I've had better Tyrokafteri for sure. But like I said, not worth the price. We'll be checking out other Greet places before we go back if we are in the area.
Review Source:Good solid Greek fare. The salads and platters are very yummy. The prices, on the other hand, are fairly exorbitant. I paid $18 for a salad with seafood...and would have had to have paid another $8 to have feta on my salad, even though the menu said it was $3, had I not argued with the owner (who only charged $4). Another member of our party was also charged $8 for extra grape leaves, even though she was quoted $3. And did I mention our server was obnoxious? Been here three times, and this visit left a pretty sour taste in my mouth.
Also, parking sucks.
tl;dr - If you decide that you want to upgrade your salad or plate, make sure you tell them that you don't want a side order...but that you want to "add it from the menu for $3".
SO delicious. I ate here for lunch with my mom. We started with a shrimp appetizer. It was basically shrimp, tomato sauce and a delicious cheese similar to mozzarella. The dish was AMAZING but I was a little annoyed that $14 only got us 4 shrimp. I would have loved a few more, especially because I was sharing it with mom.
Some pita bread was served on the house - yummy and delicious.
I ordered the lamb and bell pepper kabob atop a Greek salad with huge mounds of feta cheese. It was a decent size salad and a very generous portion of feta, but I was not very impressed with the amount of meat on the plate. Â I like a lot of protein on my dish and as you can see from the picture, there were about 6 chunks of lamb.
My mom ordered the salad with grilled octopus. I tasted it and it was quite tasty.
Overall, the food is amazingly authentic and delicious, but they seem to skimp a bit on the meat. :-/ Â I posted pictures of all three dishes for reference.
I thought this place was really good. The food was tasty, although my lamb kabob was a little undercooked. Only fresh ingredients were used in the preparation of our meal and the seasoning was excellent. The wait staff was very helpful (I had a sleeping baby in a car seat) and they hurried my order when she woke up. Nice waiters and waitresses, attentive but not smothering. BYOB allows you to bring your favorite beverage, and I think that is half of a successful meal. Ok, one third: drink, food and company. Overall, it was a pleasant experience and I will return.
Review Source:The Greek Corner Grill has great simple typical Greek flavors. This little Greek whole in the wall is a great new addition to the restaurants in park-ridge. This family owned establishment has great choices and great specials. The gyros and salads are delicious and the cheese with a "k" that I can't pronounce is also very very delicious with that touch of lemon over it. My favorite meal has also been the moussaka! I wanted to try it ever since I saw My Big Fat Greek Wedding (if you saw the movie you know the reference). Overall this place is totally worth going and enjoying a nice homemade-esque meal with friends. Go Greek!!
Review Source:Decent Greek food. Â Love their Greek salad and their kebabs. Â Their vegetarian selection is ALWAYS tasty and a treat to have when I want something light, but filling. Â I have normally get the food to go, usually the case when I have lots of work to do, but it pumps me up to get the things I need to get done at home. Â Keep it up, we need a good Greek place around here!
Review Source:I've been to the Greek Corner Grill 3 or 4 times now...I was also in Athens only a few months ago and I have to say this place is as authentic as you are going to get without getting a passport. I've had the whole grilled fish they offer twice and the grilled calamari and Octopus over their Greek Salad and this place is breath of fresh air compared to most of the restuarants in this area and especially the franchise Greek resturarants like It's Greek to Me, there is no comparisson what so ever. The place is very clean, neat and cute, the food is prepared well, and the seafood is fresh. Tthe service is very friendly and family oriented. Â This will definitley be a regular place for me. I hope they do well and remain here for a long long time!
Review Source:Friend and I went for lunch on a recent Saturday. Â We were the only ones in the place for the entire hour+.
We started with 4 cold appetizers for $10. Â We chose tyrokafteri (spicy cheese spread), melitzanosalata (roasted baby eggplant and garlic spread), tzatziki (yogurt, cucumber, garlic and dill) and revithosalata (chick pea dip). Â They were served with warm pita. Â They were pretty good. Â I attached a photo.
My friend got a classic gyro sandwich. Â It was a huge portion of meat. Â He enjoyed it very much. Â I did not taste.
I had the Greek Corner Salad. Â It was arugula, romaine lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, fennel, red onions, basil and radish topped with grilled calamari and grilled octopus. Â It was dressed in a an olive oil and vinegar dressing. Â Much like the gyro it was a very large portion. Â It was pretty good but there was just something off about it that I still can't quite put my finger on.
Drinks were can of seltzer and Snapple lemonade.
I would return if I was in the area and wanted casual Greek.
Service was perfect (remember we were only ones there) and the restaurant itself was very clean. Â The 3 guys running the place were watching soccer on a laptop at a nearby table.
I was so pleased to see a Greek restaurant in the Park Ridge area, as I was getting a bit tired of making the trip to Westwood for It's Greek to Me. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed with Greek Corner Grill.
Let me preface that I had ordered takeout. You'd think that a fairly new restaurant would make the effort to be warm and inviting so as to build a loyal customer base. This wasn't the case. As I approached the counter and said hello, there was no response. I had to offer my name and phone # just to elicit some kind of a reaction. I believe the only sounds uttered were "$35.72". No hello, no thank you, no goodbye. Nothing like good service!
I was then hoping that maybe the food would be half decent. Wrong again. My wife's Greek Salad had no dressing, and a block of feta sitting on some iceberg and a couple of tomatoes, with maybe 1-2 olives and onions. Fancy!
She had also ordered a side of grilled shrimp, and the shrimp was blatantly under cooked, as it was translucent. Dangerous!
On the (comparatively) positive side, I will say that my Moussaka was pretty tasty, but the portions could have been better. The hummus was average, and the pita bread was fairly good.
I hate to see restaurants fail, but this one needs some major work to survive. In the interim I will gladly make the 10 minute extra trip to Westwood for It's Greek to Me.
