I went here over the summer this past year and ordered the works pita sandwich with half lamb and half beef with a greek salad on the side. The style reminds me of Chipotle and the interior was very clean. They told me the fries would take a bit to get ready but it only took 5 minutes for my food to arrive. It honestly looks a bit underwhelming but is a great deal for the price. I really liked the greek salad which had bell peppers, tomato, onion, cucumber, olives, and feta. Overall this is a simple, quick, and affordable meal that hits the spot read more

Apola Greek Grill - PITA - (THE WORKS) - Greek Near Me - Valencia, California

Great casual dining experience! We ordered via the website for pickup and ate at the tables outside. On a Friday night, the sit-down restaurant next door has live music so it was lovely to enjoy as well. There is a $9.99 deal with The Works wrap (lamb and beef) and a side. I chose a mixed greens side salad and my husband chose fries. The wrap is tasty with meat, fries, tomato, onion, and tzatziki sauce. The sides are pretty small but fresh. The day we went they were out of Regular and Diet Coke at the fountain machine, but they were really nice about it and gave us options to switch to a bottled beverage. The space was bright and clean, and had nice clean bathrooms as well. read more

First time here, nice and bright soft music playing two televisions too long bench seats with cushions . I was greeted when I came in the door. VEGAN options available The falafel's are amazing have a little bit of a kick. The hummus is smooth and flavorful. The quinoa is seasoned well it doesn't taste dry. The young lady at the counter was very helpful. I asked for rice she let me know that the rice was cooked with chicken broth. . Thank you very much. It was great. I will be back. read more

Apola Greek Grill - Falafel plate with quinoa, hummus Greek salad with no feta tomatoes and cabbage - Greek Near Me - Valencia, California

I tried this place out for lunch on a weekday. It was very quiet inside as there are quite a few other different eating places in the strip mall where this place is located. They seemed to have a somewhat limited menu but I was able to order a beef and lamb gyro which I always enjoy. For $11.95 it came with a choice of one side, and I took the cucumber and tomato salad. They call this combo "the works". I thought it was all quite good and satisfying. There was a sign on the door for a $9.95 special for exactly what I ordered, but I was told that special was only available from 3 to 6 pm. If you like mediterranean food, this place is just fine. read more

Apola Greek Grill - Gyro Pita (the Works) - $11.95 - Greek Near Me - Valencia, California

APOLA is part of a chain in SOUTHERN CA, and this location is at 28263 Newhall Ranch Road in Santa Clarita. It was our very first visit. You have to place your order at the counter. This is always a disappointment. We prefer being waited on. If you are not familiar with Greek food, it can be very confusing. The Servers at the counter were very helpful. There is no wine or beer, which is always a bummer. One person in our party ordered a plate. It had numerous choices on it, which were tasty, but the Beef/Lamb Gyro was dry. The venue is very clean, but lacks charm. It is more like a cafeteria, Next time I will consider it for lunch, rather than a dinner. We were bid adieu on the way out, which is always a nice gesture. read more

Gyromania has some serious competition now for Greek food. I saw this place was closed for a very long time and noticed it was open with a special deal for today only. It was the pita with gyro meat. I got it for 3.28$ for who knows how long it will last. Customer service was pretty good. I was the only one inside ordering, and they had 2 gentlemen in their teens making my pita wrap. They were kind and good at what they did. There were other people like a small family. The ambiance is solid. It is around the gym I go to daily and some nearby restaurants. As for the wrap itself. It had a burst of tzatziki flavor and seasoned lamb. The lamb was seasoned well and cooked properly with really good bites. The texture was great, and the taste with all the ingredients like onion, tomato, olives, and parsley was fantastic. I didn't put fries inside mine because it was going to damage my skin and make me fat. The ingredients were high quality, and the size of the pita wrap was pretty big. I'm not sure if this is a grand opening. I don't think it is because of all the other reviews, but it is a solid Greek restaurant that I will have to come again to try other items. I recommend this place to eat as gyromania was sort of a go to. However, I will regular this place out and seek out other menu items. read more

When people finally (better late than never) decide to stop eating deceased animal products (sorry, that is what they are), they often have no idea how to construct a nutritious meal that is balanced and has enough protein while not sacrificing flavor and excitement. My advice is always to start with a Mediterranean diet, best exemplified by either Southern Italian or Greek food. The latter is the ideal choice for this important and planet-saving transition. Can I also tell you that never once, not once, in 46 years of eating as a vegetarian, have I ever looked over at what most people eat and wished I could have it too. The majority of the world eats the way I do and deliciously, with lots of seasoning and magic. Now let's talk about Apola Greek Grill. As you may know, I consider Santa Clarita to be a culinary desert. Every so often over the past two and a half decades, someone comes along and tries to change that. We had a wonderful Greek restaurant here that disappeared a decade ago. We have virtually no authentic Chinese places at all. But, all that changed this week! I got a card in the mail introducing Apola Greek Grill. I pounced on it and wow! I am so thankful, grateful, satisfied, delighted, over the moon -- you name it. This is not only Mediterranean, it is the best example of Greek food I can imagine. Every single dish was out-of-this-world delicious. Seasoned to perfection, grilled flawlessly, arranged in its gleaming nest artfully, so appetizing that I literally couldn't decide what to eat first. Here is what we ordered for a group: *Falafel bowls (Mediterranean patty made from a blend of chickpeas, fresh herbs and spices) *Grilled veggies *Dolma (grape leaves stuffed with rice and rolled) *Tzatziki spread (Traditional Greek yogurt with cucumbers, dill, garlic and EVO) *Feisty feta (the orange side; puréed roasted eggplant with lemon, garlic, parsley, herbs and EVO) *Skorthalia (garlic spread; puréed roasted garlic, with potatoes, bread crumbs, sea salt and EVO) *Hummus (Mediterranean spread of chickpeas, tahini, lemon, spices, and EVO) *Greek salad (Roma Tomatoes, Red Onions, Green Peppers, Herbs, Cucumbers, Kalamata Olives, Feta Cheese & EVO. Served with Pita and two spreads) *Baklava (Phyllo Dough (puff pastry) Filled with Honey and Walnuts) All of that came to less than $50. The venue itself is gleaming and immaculate white and blue, just like the gorgeous sparkling city of Athens itself. The quality of the meals is first-rate, it smelled as good as it looked and tasted. I have been to Greece -- Apola is clearly the result of people who are native to the culture and the cuisine. It has not been Americanized, as we seem to require of most things, sadly, with the exception of the marrying of a baklava and Cheese Cake, that we did not try. Baklava is one of the best sweets on earth, that lily doesn't need gilding, imho. Right at Thanksgiving, the gods rewarded me for my willingness to venture out in Santa Clarita instead of heading down, over the hill. Apola delivers but I appreciate the chance to interact with the cheerful, friendly, professional staff, like Shealyn, who made being in the restaurant itself pure joy. Thank you to the Kosmides family for taking a chance on us and putting this gem here in the high desert. I hope we reward you as you have done us, this season. (efcharistó)! Thank you! read more

Today I ate at the Apola Greek Grill for the first time. I was surprised how great the food was. I had the plate of chicken souvlaki, it was so tender and delicious. The baklava cheese cake was spectacular! We will be back!! read more

First timer review! Great space, fresh ingredients, delicious Greek salad tzatziki, spicy hummus, and pita! (The chicken souvlaki and rice were average, but still better than Greek places I've been!) Super Friendly and Hardworking staff (11/10, around 6:15pm) I will DEFINITELY be back! read more

Dining area was clean and inciting both inside and out. Staff was friendly and helpful. Place sparkles and had lots of free parking. Ordered the wraps and had a coffee. We loved that breakfast is served all day and it's delicious. Highly recommend it! read more

Apola Greek Grill - Chicken plate - Greek Near Me - Valencia, California

I have been wanting to try this restaurant. The food was ok, not what I thought it be. But the customer service was great.

Ugh, I hate when I find a great restaurant I enjoy and then they change it up. I think this spot changed owners and boy did they underwhelm. So you essentially do a chipotle style service and they give you tiny amounts of food. It feels less clean overall. read more

Tried this for the first time and the pork is very delicious as is the beef / lamb. Was was very impressed especially with the pork. Would definitely order from here again! Prices seem good too! read more

I just wanted to give a shout out to Apóla Greek Grill in Valencia Great customer service and I love the food! I have been there 3 times in the last two weeks the manager is so sweet and I love that she knows my order and the rest of the staff are helpful and kind. I'm always looking for good Dolma and fresh pita - and this place has it! (I like vegetarian dolma). Plus their spicy hummus and spicy feta are They are located next door to Olive Terrace. read more

I order 45 minutes before closing. It seems they were rushing and the food taste like leftover. We order the breakfast burritos, pita works and the fries. Was a bit disappointed. read more

Great food and great vibes! We ordered the Athenian and it tasted like we were in Greece. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The staff was super friendly and made us feel right at home. Highly recommend if you're craving real Greek food! read more

I came here with a coworker this past Thursday and we both enjoyed our experience for the most part. We tried Apola Greek Grill for the first time and it wasn't too much of a let down at all. The food was hot and fresh to perfection as I got "the works" shrimp pita along with the basic breakfast wrap with bacon. I love the way Apola does their eggs in the burrito to ensure each bite of the burrito has egg it. The method behind it is brilliant and special shout out to the server: Derek M for explaining how the burrito was made, his excellent customer service skills in taking time out to bring my order over to my table, while most importantly making me and my coworker feel welcomed into the establishment. The only reason I didn't give this establishment and review a 5 star rating is because the women who took over after Derek were very rude and lacked customer service skills. They failed at making me and my coworker feel welcomed and they did not greet every customer that entered or left the store with a thank you or hello. Outside of that, the food was great and I'd recommend to anyone that loves Greek food. read more

All good things come to an end? And so fast? I'm very, very, disappointed. My stellar review is no longer. What a turn of events. Last 2 orders were a little off but we all have those days and I excused it. Tonight, I ordered via the app (I've done this numerous times)- I ordered my usual plate and my husband's The Works Gyro. I want to add, my husband has always said the gyro was fine but not the greatest because the meat is not freshly shaved. Anyway, when I walked in to pick up, it was a whole different vibe. Who are these people? Was this location sold? New management? Got my food, brought it home. Once home and I opened my plate, it seemed slightly light and no dolma. My husband took a look at his gyro and said, 'What the hell is this?' Meat is gross and dry looking, two paper thin tomatoes, and 3 slithers of onion. It really doesn't look appetizing at all. He literally left it on the kitchen counter in disgust and said he's going to get something to eat. Great, he's gonna be grumpy all freakin night. To wrap this up, it was a nice few visits but I believe this place has changed hands and I'm no longer interested in spending my money here. read more

Greek fast food. The "bowl" with one protein was a good size and plenty for lunch. The beef/lamb was ok but a bit too salty. Next time, I'll try the chicken instead. Quinoa was cooked well. Service was good and the place is clean. read more

Yum! I really like this spot! Just had lunch here! I got a Greek salad with gyro chicken. SUPER FRESH! All the veggies were crisp, abs the dressing was really good! The meat was juicy with good flavor & spices, but not too salty like a lot of places that serve this style of rotisserie type meat. You see it at Turkish, Armenian & Lebanese type spots, but I think I like the Greek seasoning the best. I do wish the salad had a little more feta, but that's a personal preference because I'm a cheese whore. The place was EXTREMELY CLEAN and the employees were very nice as well. I HIGHLY recommend. I'm being carb conscious right now or I would've definitely tried their baklava cheesecake. I've never even heard of that anywhere omg... it looked bomb but I stayed strong lol. I'll for sure come back. read more

Surprisingly disappointing. The food lacked flavor. The employees seemed clueless and had to be told to take customers' orders. And the service was achingly, molar grindingly, glacially slow. read more

This is my 2cd time having this but my first time going inside to order. Perfectly located, you can dine if you like seating arrangements inside very quaint or take it on the go! Great atmosphere! This is Awesome flavor filled authentic easy Greek food; capturing the very essence and quality of Greek cuisine.They make the best possible fresh and tasty dishes maintaining true to the Greek flavor profile. You will not be disappointed at all! The baklava options are incredibly delicious! The minute you sink your teeth in for a bit...You will taste fresh deliciousness! This has been an adventure of a discovery! We liked the mix of offerings - healthy- spicy- not spicy- vegetarian. So glad that I got to try this gem of a hot spot!!!, the staff made the experience even more pleasant. Loved it and highly recommend it!! I loved my experience- so much we will definitely be back! read more

The food was fresh and delicious. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED read more

My entire family loves Mediterranean food so having a place like Apola in our community is huge for us. We have tried many things on the menu and it's all been good. They make one of the best traditional gyros in Santa Clarita and whether you are going with a plate or a bowl everything tastes fresh and perfectly seasoned. I would say the lamb/beef combo rivals some of the proteins I have tried in Greece and Israel. Oh and try the baclava-it's special. read more

I wanted to grab a quick bite so I stopped by this place on the way home. The staff was extremely nice. I tried the build your own pita sandwich with chicken souvlaki. I didn't really expect much from it but it was surprisingly good. I'm glad I gave it a try. It's nearby, it's healthy, and it's tasty. I think I'll be frequenting this place often. read more

We've had Apola Greek Grill twice so far. Both times the food has been delicious! The meat is always cooked to perfection, is juicy & flavorful. We've tried the lamb, chicken & shrimp. The staff is always super helpful & accommodating. I also really enjoy the interior design of the restaurant. It's well lit & nicely decorated. We will definitely be back. read more

This was our first and last visit to Apola. What a bad first impression it made for me and my wife as we were both disappointed in our take out meals. I ordered the breakfast wrap with pork and it was terrible. The hash browns were stale and there was very little meat and it was cold! Absolutely no flavor! My wife ordered the pita wrap with gyro chicken and the fries on the side. The fries were cold and stale and the chicken was hard, overcooked and chewy. This place will not stay in business if they continue to put out food like this. If I could give zero stars, I would. read more

If you are looking for delicious gyros!!! This is the place !!! Great service and AMAZING FOOD!!! read more

This place is underrated! The food was absolutely delicious and the building was very cute. The staff were helpful and energetic and were very understanding to a fellow customer who had a lot of questions about the food. The portions are also sort of large so if you plan your order right you can probably get two meals out of it. That's what I did. It reheats well too! read more

Really delicious. Excellent place to stop when charging your Tesla. Bathrooms available.

DON'T COME HERE ON YOUR LUNCH BREAK The food is quite good but it takes so long to get it. It took my friend and I waiting 15 min in a line that was only 4 people ahead of us. It is abysmally slow. Then the servers are not well trained and takes long to get your order completed. The food itself was enjoyable but the whole experience was dampened by the poor service. They are nice people but in this type of cafeteria style restaurant there is much to be desired. read more

Today was our first time here. My wife and I both found the menu and the ordering process a little confusing. She ordered the felafel pita sandwich. She wasn't enamored with the taste of the felafel balls. I ordered the pork gyro sandwich. The pork was excellent with great flavor. Both were good. The prices seem reasonable and the staff was friendly. It was very clean inside and I liked the layout. read more

My husband brought home a gyro wrap from their grand opening event. Wow was it good! Not only was it huge and packed full of gyro meet, but the flavors were so good! The fries were a nice touch and the sauce just brought everything together. I'm really excited to have Greek food so close to us and can't wait to go try some of their other menu items. My mouth is watering just thinking about! read more

Workers were absolutely wonderful and friendly. But unfortunately the quality of the food wasn't there. Plenty of quantity and options to choose from. However the chicken skewers were old, I had them remake one of the skewers because I felt like I was chewing rubber. Unfortunately that didn't help much still felt like it was rubbery. The vegetables were fresh and delicious maybe the meat needed to be worked on. Probably would choose another place next time. read more

Was excited to try this place specially since they're halal, but was not a fan. Meat tasted processed and everything else was just ok.

We just placed our first to go order from Apola Greek Grill. The shrimp pita was very good, but they Greek salad I ordered was missing, the rice was tasteless, and the fries were soggy and cold. read more

I've eaten at a couple of Apola Greek Grills now and I LOVE them. As someone who can't do the dreaded glutenz (cue evil music), finding a place with a gluten-free Gyro is rare. Finding one that does it as well as Apola is beyond expectation. They're not fancy, but they're well priced, delicious, and safe for me to eat. They get my vote a thousand times. read more

The gyro was dry. Almost no taziki, tomato or onion. Small portion and my food was cold. Very disappointing.

Enjoyed my chicken pita. My husband loves that they have gluten free pitas. In fact when I accidentally forgot to order his gluten free, they made his on the house and let us keep the order I made in error. They didn't have to do that. Great service and we'll eat there again. read more
