My Big Fat Greek Restaurant, Mesa, Arizona Restaurant Details

Food:

Love the kabobs. I combine the chicken and beef. The Greek fries are equally awesome.

Food:

Had a terrible experience at this restaurant tonight. I ordered lamb souvlaki with a small Greek salad, Mom ordered the spinach pie. We ordered two cokes. Waitress was very sweet, brings the cokes and a "salad" which consisted of lettuce, two cherry tomatoes, a few small bits of cucumber and onion with parmasean cheese on top. No Greek olives, no feta cheese. I ask for some Greek olives, waitress brings me 4 olives. Twenty minutes later we get dinner. Mom's spinach pie looks like a burrito with some cheese and chopped tomato on top. I'm Greek and we couldn't figure out what it was. We taste it and it's pretty good. Waitress brings me lamb chops which I didn't order. I tell her that I ordered the lamb souvlaki and she just looks at the plate and says "oh". Then says I should eat the lamb chops while I'm waiting for the souvlaki. I cut into the lamb chop and it's RAW. I mean RAW. I point this out to the waitress, she says "oh". Takes it away. Another 20 minutes later I get my souvlaki. The lamb is so tough and grizzly that I can't even chew it or eat it. I tried 6 different pieces, not one of them made it down my throat, I spit them all out. I show it to the waitress and at this point I'm starving and ready to leave and get dinner somewhere else. She suggests I order something "quick", some gyro meat on a plate with some rice and a side of hummus. I agree because I'm desperate. Two minutes later she brings me out the plate. It did have a lot of gyro meat on it but it was literally dripping with grease. I picked up the meat on the fork and grease literally dripped from it. I was so hungry I ate some of it anyway. The "side" of hummus was in a tiny cup, about a teaspoon's worth. I kid you not. The "rice pilaf" was rice that has some puree'd carrots in it. I didn't finish dinner but Mom and I decided to box it up and order a slice of cheesecake for dessert to split since I was still hungry, having barely eaten anything. We order the slice of cheesecake, waitress comes back and says they're out of it. We get the check, they were nice enough to take my dinner of the check but in looking at the check they charged.....ready for this? SIX dollars for a Coke! That Coke should have come in a gold glass. We've taken this restaurant off our list and won't be going back. I'm sorry to say that because there are very few Greek restaurants in this area and I'd like to be able to have Greek food once in awhile, but I won't go back to this place. The only "grease" in this Greek restaurant is on the plate!

Food:

I like this chain in general, but this location was a disaster. It was off to a bad start when they were out of the iced tea and the appetizer that I wanted... Then, I ordered the Grecian Delight pizza, which is supposed to have pesto, but they put red sauce on it instead. The service was so slow that I gave up and started eating it anyway. When the waitress finally stopped by, she apologized, but did no more to fix it than to offer a side of pesto. It never came. By the time I was done eating, the manager came by and explained they didn't have any pesto prepared. I told him not to bother. They still charged me the full price.

Food:

Great service (Victor)! Scratch made foods made it easy to accommodate my gluten free and dairy free diet. Perfect portion sizes and excellent food!

Food:

Food is ok, service is ok. Nothing really stood out of the ordinary.
