Mad Greek Deli

This place is on the OTHER side of the river, the river which divides Portlanders in more ways than one (locals will get the drift), but I was in the area and had to try it out.

First, there is no way I could give them 5 stars, and I'd be struggling to give them even 4.  It's about 3.5.  The food is was decent - the centerpiece, being the gyro, was very good,  the Greek fries had a weird seasoned taste, and the baklava was tasty.

The service at the counter is indifferent.   This area, north of 26, is generally newer and fairly nice.  However, this location, in the physical sense, is a dive.  I would definitely go back if I was adjacent to 26, but I wouldn't ever cross town to eat at the Mad Greek.

Love the Baklava here I can tell they use pistachios very flaky, crispy and yummy. Prices are great for a filling lunch. Be careful when you order greek fries. It's essentially giant size jojos or eating one huge potato. Very tasty would come back again.

Service is okay, you go up to counter, server either decides to be rude or nice. (hence the name Mad) You get your yummy food, sit down, eat and leave.

Place is very casual and parking lot is very small.

This place is so good! As a poor college student, the prices and the location to my campus is really nice. I go and split the mad Greek chicken salad (which is delicious! Fresh and flavorful with good meat) and a large Greek fries with extra Omega sauce with my friend after class. Seriously, even with the other amazing food, I go back every time dreaming of that sauce. And there is enough food to feed us, often with left overs. The people who work there are always really nice, we have never had an issue. If you're in the neighborhood, I would highly recommend it. My favorite is the mad Greek chicken salad, but the grilled chicken sandwich is also excellent, and comes with its own fries so you don't need to get an extra order, like with the salad. Can't wait to try more.
