    Demos in Watertown was really disappointing. We ordered two gyros, one lamb and one falafel, and the total came to about $30. The falafel gyro only had two small pieces of falafel and it was very dry. The tomato in it tasted old and not fresh. The lamb gyro also tasted old and not very good. The fries were undercooked and seemed like they had been sitting for a while. Overall it felt like a waste of money. For the price, the quality and freshness of the food should have been much bett

    Lovely Greek side salad
    Rita P.

    Everything was absolutely delicious. Fresh and delicious is what everyone was saying. Two brothers run the show and they are the nicest guys and so customer service oriented which means a lot to me! We drove almost an hour to meet up with some family members we hadn't seen in awhile! It was the perfect spot to have chosen for lunch. Great food, great service what more can one ask for!

    Spanakopita Side
    Jillian C.

    One of the best Greek restaurants in MA! There was so much on the menu that I wanted to try and the staff let us completely customize our meal so that we could try a bunch of different menu items! They were super friendly and accommodating. The food was outstanding especially the spanakopita and shrimp skewers. Great portions too! Note, there is street parking, but I had no problem finding a spot on a Saturday night. Plenty of seating inside. Very casual and informal. Will definitely be back!

    Found this place from a colleague. This Greek restaurant is awesome. Ordered their 2 skewers combo and grilled octopus. They are fire!!! Servers are friendly. You order from the counter, pay, and they deliver to your table. This place is spacious, perfect for large gathering

    2 Chicken Kebab

    Tonight we decide to grab takeout at Demos, a Watertown staple for many many years. The restaurant is clean and very quiet even though there were a half a dozen people eating in. My order of one chicken skewer and salad, and two chicken skewer dinner with rice and salad was ready when I arrived. Salads come with dressing on which makes some of the lettuce look undesirable but overall the salad is good. The dressing is oil based and ok but not my favorite. The salad does not come with pepperoncini and that stinks. The rice is very fresh. It was light and fluffy and flavorful. The chicken was better than I remembered. The chunks of chicken were large and the chicken was moist and tender. There were a couple of bites that were tough but most pieces could be cut with a fork. There was a nice char on the chicken which added to the overall flavor. Demos is very consistent and always a great place to grab a quick meal.

This price range is more close to the city price range. The lamb shank is flavorful, the salad that comes with it is fresh and the dressing is on the sour side, which is appetizing. The conch fritter came out hot and the batter is nice and not greasy. The ambiance is ok, with some jazz music playing in the background. The service is also ok, not extra friendly nor attentive; everyone was just doing their job.

I appreciated how much this place leans into both cultures from decor showcases both cultures to their balanced menu featuring dishes from both. There is ample seating at this place and dont let the construction outside deter you because they are open. We ordered the cheese manakish to start, and this might have been my favorite dish. Balanced with two types of cheese with a light airy texture to it kept it from feeling too dense. The pita its on is crunchy and thin, and theres a drizzle of sauce, likely some form of pesto, that cuts the flavor making it a truly enjoyable dish. We also ordered the chicken kebabs and roasted jerk chicken. The kebabs were a great portion with tender chicken, some greens, and grains. I personally could have used more tzakai, but thats a personal preference. Overall though, the meal did not feel heavy and I left feeling full but not overtly stuffed which I was happy with. My husband's jerk chicken was a sizable dish. The chicken was tender and fell right off the bone, and the pilaf had a nice flavor to it. Overall we really enjoyed our meals. The service can take some time, but its a super small staff so just be patient.

When you first walk in, it's a bit quiet and you have to wait for someone to come from the back to greet you, but be patient because once you're seated, service is attentive and available whenever you need it. There are lots of rustic-looking tables, which give it a sort of homey feel, and some tables can fit 12+, so they can definitely accommodate large groups. My colleagues always get something different, but I get the same thing every time: the grilled boneless pork shoulder and it is so good. The pork shoulder is a bit fatty and comes out juicy and flavorful from the grill - droolworthy. It comes with sauerkraut, but it's not your typical sauerkraut; it's more like a mild slaw with just enough acid to cut through the fatty pork. Also comes with your choice of side and sauce. The garlic toom is the only option in my opinion (of course, they have others), but get ready to have kickin' breath for the rest of the day. Others have gotten the lamb tongue, lentil soup, falafel, beef shawarma, borscht, pelmeni, eggplant rolls, and they have all been hits. Don't think I would ever come out of my way to this restaurant if I didn't know about it, but it's totally worth the trip!

I have been running by Watertown Square for years smelling this aroma, but finally had the chance to taste the source. The cheese bread is yummy, but the egg really brings it together.

I'll definitely be back to try other things!

    Can't believe I've been living in the area for over a decade and never thought to check it out…read more Ironically, I only discovered this place because I had to park nearby and walk nearly 3 blocks to the Mediterranean Grill which proved to be an underwhelming experience, but noticed this place due to the "Zagat rated" sign in the window which piqued my interest. Well, sometimes the best things happen by pure chance...and thus I came back to try out this place a couple weeks later, and found it to be far and away the best Greek/Mediterranean food I've ever had in the entire greater Boston area! It's easy to see why this place is Zagat rated. Easily beats out bigger, trendier and fancier-looking, much pricier "Greek" places such as Zo Greek in Somerville's Assembly Square (review upcoming) as well as the more downmarket hole in the wall places like Falafel King. Everything was very fresh and flavorful. Loved the Sampler Plate for two, everything on it was absolutely scrumptious and next time I might order one just for myself so I don't need to share it with anyone else, hahaha...really brings out your inner greedy-S.O.B.! Also loved that their fresh-cut french fries are actually pan-fried, not deep fried...first time I've ever encountered that anywhere in this city, and they were also crazy good...instead of just tasting the oil as happens with deep-frying (especially if they are frozen fries with that yucky mushy cardboard texture) you actually get the full flavor of the (gasp!) POTATOES, and do not need to drown them in ketchup or salt the living daylights out of them. Truly a "homemade" experience! We tried both the "Greek" fries and the regular fries, both were rave-worthy...and this is from someone who normally avoids fries in restaurants because they are usually made from tasteless frozen potatoes. Lamb kebab and moussaka were also excellent, as was the baklava and galaktoboureko. Baklava outside of the Mediterranean and Middle East tends to be very mediocre and overly sweet...not here! Lastly, it's a beautiful and charming spot. It doesn't make any attempt to be trendy or gimmicky. Just has a warm friendly ambiance, which also describes the service. Can't recommend this place enough...will definitely be one of my regular go-to places!

    I love Greek food and I knew from my husband that Boston has a big Greek community and great…read morerestaurants if you want a traditional Greek fare, exactly what I wanted. The places he used to go are gone, some replaced by local chains, casual in line with national chains. I wasn't interested in that sanitized version of Greek food that I knew it's lack authenticity. I did lots of research looking for a family owned restaurant (Yelp wasn't helpful at all). Found the Greek Corner in an article about best Greek restaurants in Boston, after looking into the menu and address, I realized that it was close to our accommodation, a few minutes of walking away! Greek Corner it was meant to be! We dined there after our first full day in Boston, after long hours of walking, working and sightseeing. The restaurant was cozy, nice decor, with a few regular customers. We were greeted right away, asked to sit where we wanted, so we picked a table by the window. Got water from the house right away. Customer service is attentive, not hovering, just right. We order portions of gyros and souvlaki, they both come with salads and fries or rice. Avery, our waiter substituted for free for us regular fries with Greek fries (they come with cheese, sprinkled with oregano), and we thought that was so nice and welcoming! Food was great, classic, traditional in the good way, the meat is tender, flavorful, the salads are fresh, the feta cheese is outstanding. The gyro plate coms with pita bread. We got Mythos beer to go with the food, not amazing, had it before in Greek restaurants but why go with anything that's not Greek? For dessert, we shared a Galaktoboureko, a cheese/vanilla custard pie in phyllo dough with cinnamon sprinkled on top, it melts in your mouth! Perfect place to chill and decompress after a long day, relaxing, great service, good food! We also came back here during our last full day in Boston. It was a change of plans. This year, we seem to go on a new personal trend while travelling - we love a restaurant and keep going back LOL! It was a rainy day, we were tired and wanted to stay away from tourist traps so coming back to a nice neighborhood spot where you know what you'll get it was comforting. We were recognized by the staff right away, picked the same time and ordered Greek red wine - Vin de Crete (just OK) and I got a Moussaka, a nice hot dish, loved the potatoes and eggplant, a classic dish, I chose rice pilaf this time around. My husband went for the Pastitso, perfect for a cooler day. He also got rice pilaf and the dish was perfect. They both come with the Greek salads which we loved! For dessert, we went classic again, shared a portion of Baklava (my husband had his eyes set on in from our previous time), and it didn't disappoint! Prices are reasonable here, service is nice, we loved having Avery taking care of us, nice to chat with, very fun and kind. It really feels like a cozy neighborhood spot where you are taken care of! I wish I could still walk to it! Can I have it bought to LA, please? Great Greek restaurant in Cambridge! Loved everything about it!
