    Lettuce

    We ordered a Greek salad with falafel, but when I got back to my hotel and opened the container, it was just shredded lettuce, nothing else. No toppings, no falafel, not even any dressing. I paid $17 for a box of plain lettuce. Really disappointing. Update: upgrading this from one star to three stars because they apologized. They also offered a reimbursement which we were not necessarily seeking, but it is a kind gesture.

    Rice plate with chicken, hummus and pita bread

    I liked the Greek Grotto, located inside the Kuhio Food Court. It was easy to order, the service was friendly and the food came out quickly. There's a lot of seating in the court but it can also get very crowded, so finding a seat can be challenging. I had the Rice plate with chicken. It had seasoned chicken, cauliflower, and zucchini with basmati rice and covered in tzatziki sauce. It was great! I couldn't finish it, but I wanted to! My daughter had the Greek fries and the hummus with pita which she said was really good. The Kuhio Food Court has a big selection of restaurants to choose from and I'm glad I chose Greek Grotto!

    Gyro salad no cheese

    Located in Kuhio St Food Hall in International Marketplace, which is an upscale food court. Prices are high at all eateries but this one might be the healthiest option available. Glad I didn't look at the reviews before I ordered here! I really liked my gyro salad. The cucumbers were sliced really thinly, lettuce was very fresh, dressing was delicious. I ordered with no cheese or onions. Would order again.

    Noisy at the 7pm dinner hours. Don't expect to hear each other. The selection of food at the Greek Grotto is limited but that helps them out it together somewhat quickly with only the 2 people working. Owners might consider adding more help to serve more people since many people walked away.

    One of the things that I've come to appreciate about Honolulu is the diverse food offerings that can be found everywhere. I never thought I'd be enjoying Greek food in Hawaii but that is exactly what I found myself doing during one of the first days of my recent trip to Oahu. Greek Grotto is located inside Kuhio Food Hall. Their menu consists of gyro wraps, rice plates and greek salads. Meat choices include beef, lamb, chicken and falafel. They also have hummus, baba ganoush and pita bread. I chose to get a rice plate with beef and lamb for $17. The plate included basmati rice with roasted cauliflower, zucchini, egg plant and tzaziki sauce. Overall I thought the flavors were on point. The meat was tender and paired quite well with the tasty rice and veggies. I did think $17 was a little bit on the high side but nevertheless did enjoy my meal here.

    Gyro, came with a side salad. Really good.

    We stumbled upon this place in the Kuhio food hall in Waikiki and I'm so glad we did! There were a lot of option around but I love Greek food and wanted to try. My husband got a beef/lamb gyro and I got a salad. They were both delicious! I would definitely go back again if I'm in Waikiki. The price was normal and we got a lot of food. We were both stuffed after. The food came out pretty quickly as well. It's in a food hall so it's pretty busy and crowded but we were able to find a seat. I think this is a great place to stop if you want something a little different

    I'm limited to food options due to dietary restrictions so I was happy to find a place with healthier options. The food is great but I wanted to give a thumbs down to the service. I ordered, but the worker who took it ran off to do something to the back and did not put my order (the physical order print out needed to prepare the order into the rotation). It wasn't until I was seeing them work on other orders after mine that I asked if they had forgotten my order. How long would I have had to wait if I didn't say something. They did apologize and immediately worked on my order. I had paid an extra $1.50 for to go. When I received my order, the handle of the bag was dirty/greasy from the gloves after preparing the food. When I finally got my order the outside of the food container was very dirty most likely because of the gloves. The photo shows how my food was in the container. Very sloppy.

    Gyro meat
    Travis N.

    Gyro was $15. It came with a nice salad that had a light but flavorful dressing. They don't add much tatziki, and they put it only on the pita, so you don't taste it much, but the meat portion size more than makes up for it. Will be back again

    They certainly had me at feta! Aaaahhhh when you see the meat cooking vertical on that broiler the decision has only been partially made as how you want it to be plated is your real decision. Luckily I'm a Gyro lover and love me a stuffed wrap with all the fixings Greek with a choice of Beef & Lamb, Chicken or Falafel it's topped with tzaziki sauce, lettuce, tomato all wrapped up in a pita bread served with a small side Greek Salad (lettuce, tomato, red onions, cucumber and feta with house greek dressing which is like a vinaigrette. Though there are ample seating available both in and outdoors, I decided to make it to go and chill upstairs on the rocking chair which is one of the feature I do love about the International Market Place there are various types of seating all around but on the second floor there are a few large rocking chairs that are places right in front a water feature is just so relaxing, The Gyro was just yummy...all the filling was fresh and delicious the sauce ties it all together and it was bliss. Having that salad was an added fresh bite I actually wanted to add it to the gyro lol!! Besides a wrap you are able to make it into a Rice Plate or Greek Salad but the next time I do have my eye on the Greek Fries and Hummus. Super easy and convenient as the parking elevator is just steps away and with a minimum of $10 for validation that makes it next to nothing to have your gyro and relax to eat it too!! Thank you!

    Beef Gyro Wrap
    Mari K.

    Found in the Kuhio Avenue Foodhall, this is such a hidden gem. The beef was tender and flavorful plus the sauce was the perfect touch. They don't skimp on portions, this is to say you will be holding onto your gyro for dear life while trying to finish it. Service was quick - I went at around 4:30-5 and my food was ready in under 10 minutes. The foodhall this is in runs like a food court so there is quite a bit of noise and crowd. They provide outdoor tables for seating but you can easily take this to the beach if you prefer.

My husband ordered the Grilled Day Boat Scallops and I ordered the Greek Salad with a side of Brussels Sprouts for our entrees. The Bocconcino Whipped Burrata was a recommendation from our waitress and this was my favorite dish! So thankful she recommended it. I have never had anything like it before. The dip is made from roasted beets, walnuts, and pomegranate molasses. Because it was whipped, the texture was so light. It was perfect. The Greek Salad and Brussels Sprouts were only ok. I did not expect there to be as many tomatoes as there were and I wasn't really a fan of it for the price. My husband enjoyed the scallops and he recommends giving it a try. TLDR: definitely get the Bocconcino Whipped Burrata!

Parking is free w validation for 3 hours on the second floor of the building. Servers were helpful except a bit forgetful since they forgot both our Octopus and pasta until we asked. And also forgot that we came for our bday celebration even though we said it on our online reservations and also when we came in to be seated. The spread of humus tasted amazing especially the beets and barrata one. Portions were on the smaller side but we were all pretty stuffed with all that we ordered for 6 adults. Ambiance was nice as well and we sat fairly comfortably.

I want this place to stick around! That being said I did not really like my meal. I want to believe it's on me for choosing the wrong combo but I had a couple of issues. First, at least when I went, the rice was sitting out in a separate dish and was room temperature. I would like the rice to at least be warm, even better if it had some fragrant flavor like saffron rice should but I didn't taste it. Second, I got the falafel, which is something best served fresh or it gets dried out, unfortunately it was very dry even when dipping in the tzatziki so I did not finish it. The harissa sauce mixed with tzatziki was really good so I'm hopeful that a fresh and hot falafel with warm rice would have been much better than what I had today. Willing to try again. The staff was young but sweet and helpful, no complaints there.
