Great addition to the neighborhood! When you walk into Gre.co, it's like you're walking into a real Greek cafe. It's cozy and warm (although tight for seating space) and filled with the mouthwatering smells of shawarma and potatoes frying. The food, must get: + The traditional horitiki salad was A+, with chunks of salty feta + Bifteki - a well seasoned beef patty, juicy and delicious + whipped feta - yum! + charred eggplant dip Skip it: + spinach salad with eggplant was overdressed and left me still hungry I'll be back to try the donuts and frappe! read more

GRECO - Salad with chicken and tzaziki and lamb gyro plate with whipped feta, zucchini chips and pita - Greek Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Tasty - but not the best! If I had to rank my fast casual gyro sandwich chains, I would say Gyro City ranks 1, Verts 2, Gre.co 3, and Saloniki 4. Am I forgetting any other big names...? I got the classic chicken gyro which comes with chicken, honey mustard sauce, seasoned fries, fresh tomato and red onion on a pita. If you like spicy and are getting your food to go, I recommend asking the staff to squirt you some hot sauce in a to go cup instead of having to unwrap your food and slowly douse your sandwich using the sauce bottles they have on the tables. The chicken was a little dry, which is always why I get the souvlaki (kabob style) at Gyro City instead but this place only had the gyro. However, Verts also only has gyro meat but I thought their chicken was tender and juicy. I appreciated the heavy seasoning on the fries, very herby without being salty. But, the honey mustard sauce was a little lackluster and didn't wow me. This is a reasonably priced place (~$10-13) when in the Back Bay area but I don't think I'd go out of the way to come back. read more

The lunch is so good! The zucchini chips are amazing and I wish they had more in the lunch box. Even though 12 dollars is a bit expensive if they developed a rewards program I would go more often! First experience here read more

Ordered delivery from GreCo on a weeknight was not disappointed. They prepared everything so quickly and everything was warm and at my door within 30 minutes. The build your own plate is the perfect size for dinner (or two lunches) and the pita/dip side was fantastic - we got the Greek fava dip which reminded me of an almost pumpkin-y spread and was delicious. I always pass by this place when I'm walking on Newbury and I'm so glad I finally decided to try it - highly recommend! read more

Good decor inside and some seating outside. Definitely have to get here early before the lunch rush. As far as the food is concerned, it was just decent for me. I got the lamb plate which was nothing out of the ordinary. But the price seemed pretty high for what I got. Definitely felt like I could have eaten another 2 of those boxes, but didn't want to shell out $30+ dollars. In the end this is a decent place if I didn't know where to go for Greek food. read more

GRECO - Lamb plate - Greek Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Overall, we were very satisfied with our visit to Gre.Co. My favorite dish was the horiatiki. All the tomatoes, onions and cucumbers were extremely fresh and this delicious, traditional salad was served with large pieces of feta cheeeeeeeese! The Greek fries were a little soft, but covered in very delicious feta. The zucchini chips were tasty too. The pita was piping hot. Service was very friendly and we did manage to score one of the coveted wall seats with the little pillows. The seating here is not the most comfortable, but the pillows were a nice touch at these little wall spots. The decor is cute with traditional Greek themes and I loved that they had a copy of the book Zorba the Greek prominently displayed. OPA! It was rather crowded when we first came in, died down a bit while we were eating, and then picked up again right when we were ready to order dessert. It's not the most relaxing and chill atmosphere here just because there are so many people coming in and out. Also, if you are seated at the long table in the middle of the restaurant, watch out for people entering and exiting who may be dangerously close to knocking over your food or drinks with their bags. I would not recommend bringing a date here or planning a leisurely, relaxing meal, but if you need some quick and delicious food, this is the place to go. We tried two portions of loukoumades for dessert. We were happy with the flavor combination of the pistachio and creme one, although the loukoumades themselves were a little cold. The second batch we tried featured caramel, almonds and sea salt. These sounded amazing but ended up being covered in waaaaay too much sea salt. The salt just overpowered the other flavors. If you get these, try them without the salt. You can also customize your loukoumades order, so I may do that the next time. I can't wait to go back and try more of menu options. Hopefully, the crowds will die down a bit soon to make eating in the restaurant more enjoyable. In the mean time, I'll probably be taking my orders to go. read more

Tried takeout during COVID and was underwhelmed. Expect more of a Moe's of Greek food and you will be content. read more

My go-to for Greek food in Back Bay Area. My favorite combo is lamb and spicy whipped feta. The lamb is really really juicy and flavorful and the feta just adds a nice kick to it. I tried pork and it was quite tough so I'll stick with lamb. Tzatziki is really nice if you don't like feta. Fried zucchini is also great. The loukoumades are a great indulgence to have. They can be a little oily but I don't care, it's dessert! read more

GRECO - Classic lamb (I changed tomato jam to spicy whipped feta) - Greek Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Was craving some Greek food and Yelp pointed me in the direction of Gre. Co which was a short walk from our hotel. We both decided on the Salad option and chose chicken with the Horiatiki salad. The menu said the salad included tomato, cucumber, onion, kalamata olives, oregano, feta and olive oil. I guess it was our misinterpretation of the word 'salad' because we were expecting all of that to be on a bed of lettuce. It is not! The chicken was just OK. It's broken down into pretty small pieces so was difficult to eat when surrounded by so many large tomato chunks. If you're not a tomato lover, get a different salad. We also had a side of Greek fries and they were delicious. We waited with the lunch crowd in a long line and considering we were both kind of hungry still after our meal, I think we would skip this if we ever returned to Boston. read more

Solid option for casual greek food on Newbury Street, but I felt like I was missing something from my gyro. I think it's because I usually have some sort of fries in my gyro, and the sauce wasn't particularly tasty. I do appreciate the decent portions, so this will be a good place to go whenever I'm in a pinch to get some comforting greek food; but it's not somewhere I'll be craving going forward. This is mainly a takeout place, although there are tables inside and outside to enjoy your gyro if you want to. read more

SO GOOD. I was in desperate need for a bite to eat after doing some holiday shopping in Copley / Prudential. A quick Yelp search revealed the highly rated GreCo just a short walk away. I arrived around 2pm on a Wednesday and there were a handful of people in the small shop. I ordered the Classic Chicken Gyro, and they kindly fulfilled my request of substituting the honey mustard for the tzatziki sauce. As you may have guessed, the classic chicken came with chicken, tomato and onions (and tzatziki at my request) on a pita. The pricing was fair for about $9 and was a pretty good sized portion. The interior is small, but has an adorable minimalistic interior with Greek design influence. They also have a variety of Greek items for sale such as salt and olive oil. Definitely make GreCo a stop for your next fast casual bite in Back Bay. read more

Ummm, I love this place more than I thought I ever would. My first yummy encounter here was on a whim. My boyfriend and I were on a hunt for something relatively cheap [for the area], fast and within walking distance. Not only did this place meet all of those requirements, it exceeded any and all expectations! I've never been super impressed with food options on Newbury. Like nothing has ever tasted amazing or made me want more until GreCo! Love love love this place!!! All of the classics on the menu are superb. My faves are the classic veggie and the classic lamb. I also obsessed with the zucchini chips! The greek doughnuts are also amazing. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. This establishment has become a staple in my book. The staff is so friendly. The place is super cute and clean. I'm always happy after every inhalation of food from GreCo! read more

Tried GreCo today for the first time. I have to say it is the best best gyro I have had in Boston! Perfect on the go lunch while on Newbury Street. Will definitely be back MANY times! read more

GRECO - Pork Gyro - Greek Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

While in town for work I found this eatery on Yelp and decided to try for lunch. Cute location and decor, but easy to miss if you don't know it's there because the entrance is below ground level. Be prepared for a little bit of a wait to order/receive your food on a weekday during lunch. Otherwise, ordering was very easy and the staff was pleasant. Since I was exceptionally hungry I decided to order the platter with lamb, tzatziki and I selected the fries as my side option. It comes with sliced pita, sliced tomatoes and red onions. After tip and tax it came out to just over $12, which is a little pricey for your every day lunch. In the future I'd probably order ahead for pickup and just get a pita considering I used the pita in my platter to make little mini ones anyway. read more

The lamb chops were a special and they were crazy flavorful!! The zucchini chips were salty and flavorful, pita was soft and warm. Best meal I had in Boston in the 3 days I've been here. Would love to come again! read more

One of my favorite places to shop is Bobbles & Lace on Newbury Street. I come to Boston a few times a year and stay at the Westin Copley Place, I grab a coffee next-door at Nero and do my shopping at B&L. About a month ago, I realized a new, healthy Greek restaurant opened up. I knew immediately I must try it. Welcoming any new business into my favorite town, I walked promptly downstairs to order. I got a chicken falafel in a pita. The woman working there said it was a customer favorite. I got a water bottle and my entire meal was less than $10 including tip. It was a beautiful fall day so I sat outside and people watched as I enjoyed my falafel. It was perfectly filling and even had french fries in it. I am not a huge fan of sauce, so the one thing I will say is that it was a little heavy on the sauce. Otherwise, I would definitely come here again and check out some of their salad bowls. There is seating indoors and outdoors, of course and the restaurant itself is pretty tiny. Most people were taking their food to-go. I went in at a popular lunch hour, but I didn't wait long at all to order and for my food to be ready. read more

My taste buds give this place 5 stars! I came across Gre.Co through instagram and immediately scrambled over the next day. Fast food? Situated right on Newbury St? You guys are making it too easy. The place is beautiful with an open kitchen concept, high tables for a quick bite, and stunning floor tiles. I gotta recommend the classic pork on a pita while my boyfriend got the lamb plate. I don't know why Greeks love putting fries in my meals but I LOVE the surprise every time! The meal was fantastic except we came around 1pm on Thursday and it started to get packed after we placed our order. The line went across the restaurant and there was a long wait for food to be ready. As the concept is "fast-food" it wasn't exactly that - though delicious. I'm sure the speed will pick up as I see this restaurant staying Boston-savvy. Thanks for such a yummy meal! I'll be back. read more

Literally my favorite spot for food. I've gone to the other location near seaport boulevard twice, but when I came here this one was closer and I didn't want to go much farther into the city and I wanted to check out the new location. First off, the decor in this place is so cool! I love it. It's a lot smaller than the other one but I like the style a lot better. When I went, it was pretty busy especially for the time! The line moved pretty fast though. It's not like the other Greco where it's like a subway style where they move you down the line. At this location, there is a guy at the register and you just tell him what you want and he puts it into the register (like regular businesses usually). The food is done in about like five minutes not even. The service is really good! Not really much to say about it but the food is just phenomenal. It blows me away every time. I get the pork gyro which comes with fries inside!! It also comes with tomatoes, onions, tzatziki and I'm not sure on anything else. The pork is my favorite. I've also tried the chicken which is pretty good too! I wish they had locations closer to me, but it's so worth the hour drive if you have a free day! read more

i am easily pleased when it comes to greek food, but this place is SO fresh and good. overall super cute interior, simple menu, and bomb music. i got the classic pork plate (~12$) and my friend got the classic pork pita ($9), and they were BOTH so good. the zucchini fries were a little salty but balanced out with the tzakziki. the meat is also so flavorful that it really didn't need many sides to compliment it further. i'm also a huge fan of Saloniki & i usually leave feeling pretty gross afterwards, but GreCo gives the perfect amount to feel satisfied. can't believe i haven't been here before, but i will definitely be back again!! also their staff is so friendly and cute! the vibe is nice especially as the staff are bopping to the music! read more

I was super excited about Gre.Co, but I was a hit disappointed in the food. I had the Classic Pork, and I thought it was bland. I also ordered the fries and thought the fries portion was a bit small compared to places like Saloniki (another Greek food chain). HOWEVER, I'll give them props for their homemade, made to order donut desserts. They were fresh off the fryer and covered in Nutella!!! I'd come back just for these. read more

Good location for people watching. Food was good and the price was right. The pork looked better the lamb I had.

My daughter and I stopped by here on a recent trip to Boston. Everything we got was delicious and hit the spot! We had been craving Greek food all day and this was just what we wanted. read more

This is one of the BEST Greek restaurants I have ever been to. It serves delicious gyros that have a fresh twist. I got the lamb with a delicious tomato sauce (which is different from the usual tzatziki). Everything on the menu sounded trendy, but not in a bad way. Often times restaurants butcher a traditional food by making it modern and hip, but this place did it right! The fresh doughnuts (or yaya and golpho loukoumades) were also great! The loukoumades were made fresh and still hot when we got them. The salty, caramel golpho and chocolate, Oreo yaya weren't too sweet and complimented the warm, crispy balls of dough perfectly. I am definitely coming again to try more varieties of meat and even more sauces! read more

Love this place! It's the best "fast-casual" Greek spot in the area. Most times I get one of their pitas and I have never been disappointed - they are flavorful and filling. Their frappes are also amazing! read more

Got a loukaniko pita- warning that it's basically drowned in mustard sauce! Took away from the flavor of everything else.

Missed having lettuce in my gyro but everything else was great especially the setting.

I absolutely love Greco And have been going to both locations since they opened ( back bay and seaport ) . Even now will drive out of my way and look for parking uhhh ! Delicious and fresh and highly recommend read more

My only regret is that I didn't find this place sooner! Located on the ever charming Newbury Street, it is the perfect lunch spot to break up a busy shopping day. The food is so so delicious! I got the classic pork pita and the flavors combined so well. Warm fluffy pita, fresh feta, seasoned pork and tzatziki sauce for the win. Prices are reasonable and the staff is friendly! The shop is small but they use their space well! GreCo is the perfect example of fusion, combining the exquisite flavors of an island off of Greece with the city charm of downtown Boston. read more

Man I love this place! I work a few blocks away and eat here fairly regularly (when I'm bad and don't bring my lunch from home). Everything they serve is house made and so fresh! The gyros are unreal...note, spicy whipped feta is TDF! The loukoumades (Greek donuts) will have you singing. The staff is amazing to say the least. The husband and I ate here today with my niece and her BFF. The BFF is from Greece and she was very impressed. Since it was nasty weather outside today, GreCo was particularly quiet. To our advantage, Zoi took the time to really talk to us and tell us their story. She's always smiling and really passionate about the food and the business itself. She told us how a lot of love goes into the food, it's so obvious once you taste all of it. Long live Zoi and GreCo. You REALLY need to check this place out if you have not already! They're opening a second location in the seaport soon that will also be serving beer and wine! read more

I was looking for a casual lunch to take on the go and found this place on yelp. I love Mediterranean food so decided to give it a shot and I'm glad I did! The guy at the register was helpful in explaining the menu. Since I wasn't starving, I opted for a chicken pita with tzatziki sauce. It was warm, flavorful, and delicious. It was also the perfect portion for lunch and didn't leave me in a food coma. If I'm back in the area, I'll be back! read more

One of the cheapest and yummiest places to eat on Newbury. Their environment is very friendly and the food is amazing as well. I got the Greek donuts aka the Loukoumades, the original ones.

The food here will definitely make you full! read more

Below street level restaurant with a small outdoor space. So glad I stopped to read menu! Delicious pita wrap & a pile of fried zucchini!! It was a little lovely day to sit outside & watch Newbury St activities! Will be back to eat my way through the rest of the menu. read more

This place is GOOOOD! If you're in the mood for a quick bite without the commitment of dining in at a place- this is for you! I would order any of the classic pitas.

GRECO - Loukaniko - Greek Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Best Greek in Boston. This place reminds me of the meals I'd get when I was living in Greece. The plates are fantastic, a little pricey, but the meat and the tzatziki are seriously delicious. The zucchini fries are also the best I've had in Boston. Of note, this place goes for quality over quantity food wise. Compared to other Greek/Mediterranean plates you can get for around the same price, Greco doesn't load you up with rice or lettuce. Instead it's better seasoned meat and sauce and a freshly made side. read more

We were looking for a quick meal before catching our flight. This place was packed with a line out the door at lunch so if you're in a hurry, download the Greco app and order online- you'll be glad you did. We had the gyro sandwich and the lamb plate. Both were good. We ordered two Greek salads and realized later we only got one. Be sure and check your online order before leaving. I called them and they refunded our money. Very small inside with a small patio out front. Better for a quick take out meal. read more

Came from out of town after hearing multiple locals say that we had to go, and they didn't disappoint! All the meats were well cooked and full of flavor, the salads were fresh, and the zucchini chips- fantastic! Can't wait for our next trip to Boston as we will definitely be stopping in! read more

We got the custom plate w/ pork, gyro and the santorini salad w/ lamb. This is a cozy little place w/ a fun menu. Unfortunately, I found the lamb to be way under-seasoned, somewhat gamey and pretty dry. I'm looking forward to trying the chicken next. I also tried the spicy feta sauce and it was good. My husband tried the loukaniko (pork & leek sausage) and he said that he has had better. He gave it 3.5/5. All that aside, they are pretty generous with the serving size and the prices are pretty decent for what you get. Home fries are delicious and I'd highly recommend wrapping up your meal with some of the classic doughnuts. Forgot to take pics!! :( next time! read more

We do love Mediterranean food, and this was tasty. The basement entrance is easy to miss. I've walked past this place dozens of times and never noticed it. Inside is limited seating after you order at the counter. Definitely worth a return visit. read more
