Me and my wife moved to San Diego last year August and always wondered why the lines were long. Finally decided to see what the fuss was about and man! The food is delicious! We always get the full chicken meal and it's so much food to where I always take for lunch the following day! The food is amazing the people are nice and it's so nice and clean inside. 10/10! read more

I have always loved the Greek chicken here, which makes writing this review incredibly disappointing. I went through the drive-thru and specifically ordered dark meat from the guy who took my order. Because it was a drive-thru order, I didn't think to open up the containers and check the chicken before pulling away. Unfortunately, when I got all the way home, I discovered they gave me white meat instead. The customer service at the window didn't make the situation any better. A different girl handed me my food, and she gave off a vibe that she really didn't care to be working there at all. When I called the store to report the mistake, the assistant manager just told me to drive all the way back so they could change it. While I understand that's standard procedure, it's incredibly inconvenient to have to make a second trip and let the rest of your lunch get cold just because the staff couldn't get a simple request right the first time. The food is usually worth it, but the lack of basic attention to detail and indifferent customer service ruined my lunch. Check your boxes before you drive away! read more

Greek Chicken is one of my favorite go to places. I love their chicken combos. Today I was a bit disappointed because my salad had a lot of old lettuce. Which is very unappealing. Not sure if they've changed their method but my garlic bread wasn't garlic bread. It looked like 2 pieces of toast with maybe melted cheese. Not a fan! I wish they'd go back to their Texas sized garlic bread. My chicken was good as usual but the bread was a no go. It seems like the salad portion has gotten smaller also. read more

Greek chicken hits! We used not eat here too much because it was definitely over priced. However the economy has caught up to their average prices, and they seem to have increased quantity and quality of their food so it's worth it now. Everything tastes great. The Greek chicken is seasoned so well. The Greek salad is always fresh. Even their garlic bread is on point! I always opt for zucchini fries as my side. The best part may be their tzatziki sauce and ranch sauce. And they have franks red hot sauce available to mix in, if you like some spice! read more

Greek Chicken - 1. 1/4 Chicken & Salad Combo.. Fried Zucchini - Greek Near Me - Lakeside, California

First time trying this chain and I'd definitely be back. This is a fast food, Greek food, which I thought tasted well for 'fast food' and drive thru service. The staff was helpful and kind, not busy when I went and pretty calm. The food portions were larger than I thought which was a plus. I'm recommending this spot to others! read more

Greek Chicken - Fish and chips - Greek Near Me - Lakeside, California

The staff were slammed when we went in - they were in the middle of a lunch rush so I'll give them some grace. I ordered the fish and chips but an employee dropped one of my fish when trying to give me the tray so that delayed my order an additional 15 minutes - there was no apology or acknowledgement besides "oops. Dropped a piece." The ambiance was terrible - this place is an establishment for people over the age of 50 who are miserable and hate children. read more

If the manager hates her job that much, she should find something else. This place has gone downhill for years, and I'm done. I spent $38 on a fish lunch and a sandwich (they forgot to give me)--then they had an attitude and tried to charge me for sauce. The food was awful (fish undercooked and inedible) and the service even worse. Unbelievable. I'm done! I'd like to say this was the first time but it's not even the third or fourth... I should've stopped going here years ago! So much for trying it again! I was so appalled at the treatment. I literally took my phone out and videoed it. Here's a snapshot because the video wouldn't load. Unbelievable! read more

Greek Chicken - The video won't load so here's a snapshot. Overpriced, Rude, and uneditable! What a waste of my time and money! - Greek Near Me - Lakeside, California

I love the food here, however two visits in a row I've been given the wrong order when using the drive through.

I have loved Greek Chicken for over 23 years. However, over the past few years, I don't know what is going on. This past weekend, I went through the drive through and got chicken and a salad. I got pita bread, because their garlic bread was the best, but now they have cheese in the middle and it's not as grilled. The food was delicious, nothing tasted off, mind you I have been eating here for years. However, this time, I got really sick, really bad stomach ache, and cramping. I was talking to a friend of mine about why I was sick, and he said he got sick with the same symptoms the last time he ate at the Greek Chicken in El Cajon. So I wonder if they have added an additive that doesn't sit right with some people. read more

Went around 4:50pm today thru the drive thru the cashier big heavy set girl was just chitchatting away with the customer I raved my engine to get her attention she looked at me and continued talking then she finally grabbed their food and still kept talking, when I pulled up to the window my food was already there she didn't even bother to give it to me a young guy gave it to me . Sorry for interrupting ur chitchatting session read more

The two stars are for the service (the young woman in the drive thru was an absolute sweetheart) and for the milkshake. The rest was pretty bad. The zucchini used to be my favorite but it lacked flavor and needed less time in the fryer. Their garlic bread used to be thick sourdough, but tonight it was two thin pieces smashed together and overcooked so it was chewy. The chicken was so dry and didn't taste the same. The hummus was covered in whatever they sprinkle on top. I think it was chili powder, but it was overpowering. I tried to scrape it off and forgot the before pic, but you can see it sprinkled on the container. The rice had zero flavor and just felt greasy.I actually threw most of the meal away, which was sad because it was my birthday meal and I was looking forward to it. read more

Horrible customer service. They got our order wrong and they were very rude when we pointed it out and would not listen to us when we said what was wrong with the order. The girl who answered the phone just took my name down and said next time we go in they will give us the items that were missing/wrong at no cost. When we went in the next time they only gave us 1 item free even though we had multiple items missing/wrong from previous order and it was a struggle even getting them to give us the one item. Then when we got home we noticed the order was wrong again. When we called this time the woman that answered was again very rude and was saying nothing was missing. I asked for her name so I could report to management and she hung up on me. I had been coming here for years multiple times a month but will not be returning!! read more

Wrong, missing, over 40m waiting in drive through. Two chicken kebab meal, M chicken salad, chocolate shake. Wrong salad dressing. No tzatziki sauce yet 2 in the bag. Ranch only for both meals missing. Missing rice. Chocolate shake had banana in it. Worry about your customers an hour before you close instead of closing out your register. Every time I give this place another chance they let me down. read more

One again good food. The last two times the rudest girl working the drive thru. Same girl, curly hair today it was in a ponytail. Waiting in the drive thru 10 mins behind a single car, repeats my order hand over card immediately hands me my food. I asked oh is the pita bread in this bag! Her exact words and rude as hell it should be! And shuts the window. No receipt given so no idea her name but honey if you hate your job not my fault. read more

I love this place. it is near by where I live and any time I am craving a salad this is the place. I always get the small chicken salad with the garlic cheese bread and the white sauce and it just hits every time. the small size is a pretty good size I always get full. read more

Both cashiers were SO NICE, offered to sign me up for rewards because i wasnt a member yet. food was great. i cant wait to come back :)

Absolutely awful customer service. First off the staff can't keep up with the amount of customers trying order food. Then I order my food via drive thru and received only half. I had to drive back once I noticed. They tie the bags. When I let them know they wanted to give me the rest of my food they had been sitting in a bag. I asked for fresh food the girl working was very confrontational. They attempted to blame this on me. The boy working who was working the drive thru told me that he said there was more, which did not happen or I would have stayed. We actually had a conversation about why he needed my number and the points that you can earn. So he absolutely did not say anything. This place is awful. As I'm writing this the girl who was confrontational just stated out load "I'm clocking out. I quit". There have been five or more customers receiving their food with apologies from the staff. Awful! read more

Worst experience ever!!! Ordered food and had to say my order 4 times. Then after waiting 20 minutes I get to the window where they ignored me for 5 minutes. Then when I get to the window my order was wrong. They had the audacity to ask me to pull around to wait for the correct order. When I told them no they then said that I had to. Not going to this restaurant any more. I used to love their food and staff but in the last 6 months the place has really gone down hill. read more

there's not enough great things, that i can say about greek chicken. give them a try and attempt to prove that wrong. (:

Great service from the cashier in helping me place an order! The food continues to be on point! We had the chicken and salad combo and we added the great zucchini fries! It was delicious! The chicken was super tender and had a lemony taste to it that was quite delicious! Great to have tvs to watch as you eat! read more

Greek Chicken - 1. 1/4 Chicken and Salad Combo - Greek Near Me - Lakeside, California

I don't usually have complaints about this Greek Chicken location, but they really let me down. I got some food to take home & was very disappointed with the quality. The rice was very bland & overcooked, but the worst was the salad. The greens were not fresh at all, they were brown & wilting. To top it off, the portions were very small. At $18 for one meal, I definitely expect better quality & definitely bigger portions. read more

I wish they had more locations throughout San Diego. The food here is so amazing and the vibes are always good. You might have a wait especially during dinner time but it's always worth it. read more

Got fried zucchini and it comes with ranch. This is one of my favorite items on their menu, my favorite fried zucchini for sure. The lady who helped me was really nice and patiently helped take my order. I sat outside, this is the only location that has outside seating in east county and it was nice to do that on a sunny day. There was a sewer smell outside, so I wasn't going to sit out there at first, but it went away by the time my order was ready. read more

Great food and service. We come here on a regular basis and it is consistently excellent.

Could put some actual fish in the fish and chips. What was that under the delicious batter? Kinda like white goo.

Unfortunately, we had to endure terrible service and incompetence and still ended up receiving nothing that we ordered. Don't come here, go to the 2nd street location! read more

chicken salad was terrible, the chicken looked like tidbits of chicken jerky and tasted just as bad, lettuce looked and tasted like it had been left out at room temp for hours soggy and not good. garlic bread was actually a semi grilled cheese there was so much grease coming out of the bread it was like it came out of the deep fryer. I have been eating here for years but this was the worst. Won't be back had to throw it all away read more

First off the food was amazing the establishment was super clean kudos to Elissette for the amazing customer service! Keep it up will definitely be coming back read more

Amazing staff, Food was great. All my food tasted fresh and the flavoring of the chicken is unmatched!

10/14/24 - I came in with a buddy. Drive thru line was long and we ordered inside. Inside was busy as well. Ordered at 5:49pm, the food was ready at 5:59pm. Faster than I thought it was going to be. At 3 stars, fast service, clean inside, nice young cash register person and they didn't ask for a tip! More to come. Total of 4 stars. Food was good. It wasn't as flavorful as I remember. I will come back here again and try though. See 3 photos. read more

Heard about this place from a happy customer at the Chiropractors office and the way she talked it up I was more than impressed. Wasn't sure what to expect from a fast food chicken place but have been proven wrong many times before. Ordered the Gyro sandwich and chicken kabob dinner and everything was impressive. Chicken was succulent and cooked beautifully, the Greek salad was well seasoned, and the Gyro sandwich had just the right amount of meet with the pita bread. I will for sure be coming back to this place. read more

Every time we go to this place probably in the past year the music is so loud you can barely hear yourself think!!! people are screaming over the music just to try to talk when it's busy.. is it really necessary? I wonder This last time it was only 11 AM and we were the only customers in there other than a few others and The music was so loud it just assaulted us... I don't go anywhere else that has that kind of loud music that isn't a bar or something. However, the food is and always has been very good so we'll keep going but go through the drive-through read more
