Greek Corner

Genuine Greeks and Greek food. This is a local haunt of the lower Mercer county Greek community, especially on Fridays and holidays, when the music kicks it into the total Greek scene. Wonderful roasted meats in addition to well known favorites gyros and, yes, pizzas. The owners are a lovely Greek couple who bend over backwards to make their diners feel welcome, including children. This place is a warm blanket hug in a world of cold and indifferent dining experiences. BTW, it is also BYOB.

The people were very nice and very hospitable. Pricing was good and portion size was good. There was no air conditioning on a hot day. The windows were visibly smeared and need cleaning. The kebab was over spiced and over cooked. Came on a bed of plain lettuce, with a few pieces of pita and a little feta. The spanokopita was dry and tasted largely like plain spinach. The gyro was a good size, but the meat was not freshly sliced from the spit - it was clearly reheated. Tzatziki was not very creamy. Overall I've had worse meals, but there's also much better in the area.

I called for the chicken stick platter as well as spanakopita, and hummus. He said he did not have the spanakopita which I was bummed about but looking forward to the food anyway. The order was pickup so I entered the restaurant, and sat at a table was around 5 men drinking rum and having a good time laughing and talking loudly. I have no problem with loud talk or laughter but the vibe kind of made me feel like I walked into someone's living room in the middle of 'guys night.' I smiled to the older man assuming he took my order and followed him to the counter. He packaged my food and said he didn't have hummus which made me even MORE bummed out then before. Needless to say the chicken was good, cooked with a nice char. Potatoes were also very good with a nice hint of lemon and herbs. However, that is the extent of the review. I would have liked to try other things but if I can't trust that they will have it and will tell me before I go to pick up the food I would rather go elsewhere.
