Excellent Greek Cuisine

Camouflaged with all the other engineering buildings in the area, this café style restaurant is a favorite local lunch stop. You order at the counter and they bring your food to your table. Lines can get long, but it’s worth the wait. The menu is extensive and everything is prepared nicely. All meats are flavorful with a good blend of spices and herbs. The fries here are excellent, and you definitely should order these if they don’t come with your meal already.

big fat greek food

Love the food and especially love the fries. Beware, lunch hours are quite busy, but dinner time is pretty empty. I don’t think they’re open on weekends.

When you sit down they serve hummus with pita and bread slices. I sometimes get full on that, since I’m a hummus lover.

I really like the pita they serve here. It’s pretty light, and just the right amount of chewiness. You can actually buy the pita they serve, for $5/bag.

Dishes I tried:

Spanakópita

I actually prefer the frozen spanakopita from Trader Joe’s (it’s thinner and less filling), but this is good if you’re hungry.

Really authentic Greek food hidden in the...

Really authentic Greek food hidden in the mundane buildings of Santa Clara. I have tried most of the specials like lamb, their pita sandwiches, and pastichio. To me the best special dish is the swordfish. That was really good. I usually finish a meal with a Greek coffee. This place gets pretty busy, because engineering managers usually want to take their teams there for special lunches and there is limited seating during lunch. Its best to come after the lunch rush.
