    Greek Salad
    Vanessa D.

    Delicious food with very kind staff. Our food is always fresh and made to order. El greco is one of our favorite local spots.

    Greek salad added Gyro meat
    Shannon O.

    Wow. Based on location I didn't expect much but OMG was I wrong! The owner served me and was so nice and helpful. The Greek Salad with gyro meat is INCREDIBLE! And such a great price. The container is absolutely stuffed (I put it in a bowl when I got home, sorry). It is flavorful, just the perfect amount of everything. Lettuce, tomatoes, Kalamata olives, green pepper, cucumber, purple cabbage, feta shredded carrots (maybe onions) and of course the added gyro meat! Delicious

    The menu as of Nov '25 has items for die hard gyro lovers, American food lovers and can serve kids too. Try the baklava, a special treat.

    What a nice surprise. I was looking for a Gyro place and was blessed to find El Greco right on 94. Raoul and Juana are so nice. I look forward to seeing them every time I drive to the area. And the food! My favorite is the Lamb Gyro. I love to get the Family Deal to take home with me. It travels perfectly and surprises my family with something special every time. The prices have to be the best in the state.

    Really had a craving for gyros. Found this little place online. What a great place! Easy to get if you're on the north side of St Charles. Will be putting this store in our restaurant rotation!!!

    Actually, a great little place out in New town! Everything is fresh the lamb and the chicken gyros are excellent! The staff is friendly and the food is even better! We for sure will be back. We were even instructed how to say Gyro correctly. And the baklava was really sweet and rich

    This place is relatively new and fairly simple in terms of interior/exterior decor, but the small menu is PACKED with great options and the portions are very generous. Everything is fresh and you can see the quality ingredients as they're building your order. The gyros and salads are all made to order so you can customize to your hearts content. The owner and his employees have always been friendly, engaging, and helpful. You won't leave hungry that's or sure. They will pile on the meat and veggies whether you order a salad or the gyros. They have a limited selection of drinks in a refrigerator cabinet "self serve" style. There's also some appetizers and desserts to choose from. The stuffed grape leaves are a favorite of mine, but there's also baklava for the sweet tooth. Great small local business with a friendly, dedicated owner. The kind of place you want to spend your money at and El Greco give you plenty of reasons to return.

    Mediterranean Salad, oh yeah very good!

    Another day another review. Today is El Greco a Mediterranean restaurant located in St. Charles. El Greco delivers on good food and reasonable prices. We're Gyro fans and found a place closer to home. El Greco provides classic Greek fanfare with traditional music to enjoy while you wait. Wife ordered the chicken gyro and I went with the classic gyro. All the traditional condiments complement the meal and did I mention large portions? One gyro can easily feed two people but we were really hungry from all the post thanksgiving shopping. Only issue and not a complaint was the chicken was really overcooked but still made dish delicious. Mediterranean salad is what we also looked forward to and didn't disappoint! Restaurant was extremely clean and tables serviced very quickly. El Greco has seating for eat in as well as serving take out as Boeing is located next door and frequently visits during lunchtime. We're coming back and recommend anyone in the area to give them a try!

    Fantastic! Go it's very authentic.worth it, local as and visitors, tucked away in San Jose Del Cabo!

    Lamb Gyro, hummus, and pita
    Samantha M.

    Finally had a chance to try them today! Awesome portions for the price and no lack of good flavor in the items we ordered. You can tell the owners are proud of the food they make and are very generous and kind people. Dined in as well and the place was very clean and well kept. I REALLY hope this spot gets more traffic as they deserve it and the food doesn't disappoint. We will happily be returning to try more of the menu!

    I had EL Greco bookmarked for a bit and had been wanting to try it. It's on 94 all the way to where boats access the river. For some reason I had in my mind it was closer to Main Street but that's cool. I ordered the gyro with feta and no tomato. It was very good. Fresh vegetables and spiced right. If I had one complaint it is that the meat was slightly dry. Not sure how long that cone was spinning. I opted to take my gyro to go as it was very quiet there. I'd go back if in this area again.

    Stopped by to grab some lunch. I ordered the lamb gyro with a side of fries. Yummy! Food is fresh, and so tasty. Friendly owners. I will definitely be back!

    My boyfriend is from Chicago and always complains that we don't have a good Gyro place in STL. He's been searching for one for over 5 years... I stumbled upon this GEM of a place by accident and WOW! Great food! Great service! The place is so clean and welcoming! They actually shave the meat, unlike most places around here. I brought the food home for my bf to have after a very long day at work and even after it had been reheated... he's all smiles! I tried some too and it's so delicious! He says it's the best he's had in a very long time :) And Definitely the best in STL. I can tell he find feels a little more at home I'm thrilled!!! Go check this place out! ( We ate too fast to get a photo of the food but I did get a photo of the meat that I took to send my BF lol )

    My order Crunchy Chicken Shawarma wrap combo, 6 pc. lemon…read moregarlic wings, soda & Lemon Mint drink. Service The cashier was really nice and helpful but I had to ask for my soda that came with the combo & the shawarma sauce. You cannot substitute the fountain drink for the lemon mint. Food The shawarma was dry so make sure you ask for the sauce. I didn't taste the pomegranate sauce/ special sauce on the wrap. It was just ok. 10 fries is not worth $4. The chicken wings is medium size pieces not whole wings. They were tossed in a lemon garlic sauce & fried to a crispy. They were really good would recommend. I needed a little more sauce but that's my preference. The lemon mint drink was really good and highly recommend it. The flavor was like drinking cold pressed juiced green grapes with mint & a hint of lemon. I'm not sure if thats the recipe. My total was $30.18 Golden Chicken restaurant is just ok but not worth the 30 min drive for me. If I'm in the area maybe.

But - when pulling up the menu, we couldn't decide on what we wanted to get and their roasted chicken takes an hour wait (which means we get freshly roasted chicken.) We ended up with a good lunch: beef/lamb gyro bowl, gyro sandwich, and hummus. Bro - the gyro bowl was BIG that I needed help from my husband to eat it. It was covered in white sauce, the meat slices were generous, and the rice was so nicely cooked and fluffy. My husband loved the gyro and was REALLY into the tzatziki. The hummus was so good, but it was much more than chickpeas. It was topped with an herb that I couldn't place, and I swear it had orange blossom in it. I absolutely look forward to their roasted chicken on our next visit!

    First time and definitely not the last time!…read more Clean, decorative space upon entering. We were eating a very late lunch/early dinner at 3pm lol and there was no one else there. Once we arrived though, people starting coming in. There were probably 4-5 families for pick up and then 3-4 groups came to dine in during the span of time we were there and more just kept coming. I was craving falafel so I ordered the vegetarian plate so I could try a bit of everything. I read a review that said they had the best yalanji here and I COMPLETELY AGREE! My husband ordered the chicken schwarma sandwich in the pita and he INHALED IT. We also loved the fries too. It reminded me of halal guys. So addictive. I think it came with white sauce which was just as delicious. Wish I knew what was in it lol we were STUFFED, but we dined in so we could try the baklava ice cream sandwich and that did not disappoint. I thought I wouldn't be able to finish it but it was so good. My stomach shifted to make space! Falafel was perfect but again, the yalanji was probably my favorite part. I was so sad when I only had 2 left. We'll be back. :)

The food was very flavorful, but appetizer was served after the main meal meals were served. I appreciated the diced tomatoes dipping sauce vs ketchup... it upscaled the dish nicely. The fries were golden brown and tasty. The gyro was good. The black coffee was strong and hot. The place needs another server to increase the business during the lunch rush. The one waitress did a great job, but the place is large... for a couple of hours they could use another staff member. The kitchen staff needs more people. The falafel. And coffee should have been made first-then the sandwiches. I believe this was the because of skeleton crew idea of management. Even the entrance was not located under their sign, but located under a Hertz sign. Overall- the name sounds like a "fast-service casual" place, but owners never worked out the kinks yet. I am a fan otherwise. I can see what the place could become.
