French toast was the best tasting I've ever had! Biscuits were alittle hard but did soften with lots of gravy.

visited Sat. June 20, not overly crowded. gave simp orders. my companion's order was served fine. 4 or 5 minutes later i was given an incorrect order, I explained to the gentleman I ordered eggs over medium, sausage and potatoes. he returned a few minutes later saying he made an error, my order would be just a moment. 15 minutes later still no order. after 30 minutes total time there my companion had eaten and was ready to depart. the waitress that took the original order was no help. the tall grey haired gentleman said again it was his mistake. but he was not able to correct it. we finally left. understand the error but it should have been corrected. strange for a location with a strong reputation. customers that were seating after us were served while I waited. poor! read more

Walking into Hella's Kitchen felt like stepping onto the set of Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives--I half expected Guy Fieri to pop out from behind the counter yelling, "Welcome to Flavortown!" Let's talk biscuits and gravy: life-changing. Like, "where-have-you-been-all-my-life" levels of good. Fluffy, buttery biscuits smothered in gravy so rich, it should come with a financial advisor. Portion sizes? Let's just say if you leave hungry, that's on you. My plate looked like a food challenge and I accepted with honor (and a to-go box). The staff? Absolute gems. Warm, funny, and fast--like if your favorite aunt and your coolest diner waitress teamed up to make sure you never ran out of coffee or joy. If you like great food, big portions, and the feeling that your breakfast might get its own episode on the Food Network, Hella's Kitchen is your place. Bring a friend... or three. You'll need help finishing. read more

Good traditional food at a comparatively good price. More to the average side and can't do 3.5 stars.

I've not visited Hellas in a while. I was looking for something different than my usual places for eating out for breakfast. The same family members cook and wait on patrons here. Its a casual family owned Greek diner that focuses on breakfast. It's an old fashioned diner with wobbly tables with old aluminum diner chairs. Quaint atmosphere. They have a popular local following of neighbors and families and are often quite busy. Unless the staff know you, they can be a bit abrupt. For example, when our food came out of the kitchen, the cook stated the dishes and literally dropped them on the table. The diner is often quite popular and busy. Their limited staff are hustling to respond to everyone, appear overworked and thus stressed. Prices are reasonable, but the menu is pretty much a la carte. I ordered their vegetable omelet which comes with wheat toast. They don't offer a selection of different toasts, just wheat. Omelets are made with four eggs. So, they are a good size. My vegetable omelet was stuffed with vegetables and cheese, but was rather well done. The home fries were not evenly cooked. They were either really soggy or burnt. I didn't finish my breakfast. When I go out to eat, I'm looking for a pleasant and relaxing dining experience. There are hand made political signs posted on the walls One sign provides notice that prices increased March 2024 and it promptly directs the reader to contact the While House with any complaints. If these signs where not there, I wouldn't have noticed their minor price increases. Another hand made sign also advises the reader that they will now add a $2 surcharge to any meals paid by card. They have always preferred cash payments here. They do have a handful of outdoor picnic tables and a roof that can be used for outdoor seating when the weather is nice. I think I'll stick with usual local breakfast restaurants. My usual restaurants are at least consistent in their food and their environments are non-political and welcoming. read more

We have been coming here for breakfast over the years and are never disappointed. It's a local hangout but all are welcome. At this visit I ordered the spanakopita . Delicious and more than enough for two meals. Omelets are big. Potatoes are good but extra. read more

Hellas is a local place we have enjoyed for years. It's close, inviting, and friendly with a strong local flair. Their breakfast items have always been good and the variety is good. Something on the Specials board has always caught my eye and this Sunday afternoon brunch was no exception. What was exceptional is the intense and exotic combination in my omelet. Best I've ever had, which is saying a lot both for me and for Hellas. I've had my share of omelets over the years and we've eaten brunch at Hellas maybe a dozen times in the 20ish years we've lived in Dublin. It's always good, but this was amazing. The Specials board called it #4 and the ingredients were listed as roasted red peppers, bacon, mushrooms, capers, spinach, mozzarella, and avocado salsa. What a combination. Wish I could have eaten two of them! Thank you, Hellas. read more

We love this little gem. We live in GA but whenever we visit Ohio we have breakfast here. The best omelette out there. Live getting the pile of bacon exactly the way my Mamaw made it. Great potatoes. Best breakfast around. read more

Cranberry nut muffin cut in half and fried. Fried roasted omelet with bacon, mushrooms, spinach, red peppers, capers, and avocado sauce. The best ever fried potato I have ever had. Fresh squeezed orange juice. Owned by 3 Greek brothers in their 80s. This is a must stop to enjoy great food. read more

Hella-Terrific! Now THIS is a breakfast place! I had the most authentic ingredient filled omelette ever. I normally avoid omelettes in general due to the tendency to skimp at most restaurants. Not here! Perfectly cooked, not dripping in oil, real Sonia h and veggies, hot and filling. Don't get me started in their breakfast potatoes--- pure gold! I think the Greek owner cooked for Zeus because this b-fast was fit fit the gods. At $14 out the door with toast and constantly filled coffee makes this my favorite Ohio restaurant. read more

We are back in the area and had the opportunity to stop at Hellas again for breakfast. We sat at the counter, which we always enjoy doing. We were promptly greeted by the servers, and the follow up was impeccable during our visit. I order the trio omelette that comes with toast. There is so much food to eat that I did not order hashbrowns to go with it. The restaurant is quaint, and just enough seating. The owner and the servers are always about talking to folks, no matter if you are a regular or a visitor. read more

Best breakfast restaurant in Columbus. The omelettes hang off the plates. I would recommend the veggie omelette, side of potatoes and the ciabatta toast. Then I always get their spanakopita to go. Made from scratch. Remember to bring cash. read more

First time here. My daughter and I stopped here to have lunch but found out they were only doing breakfast that day. I guess some days they do lunch also . It's a small business and everyone was very friendly . I had the biscuits and gravy which was very good . My daughter had the pancakes which was also good . Potions are good size . Will check it out again when they have lunch read more

Hellas is a fine eatery located in Shawnee Hills, old style diner set up with a counter as well as tables. Welcoming atmosphere, great service and excellent food--- Well worth a visit. read more

Everything here rocks! Had the special which was a nice thick cut steak with three beautifully fried eggs that couldn't have been cooked any better. Will be back again, and again, and again. read more

Best pancakes in C-BUS. They're dense yet fluffy and delicious. Also, the bacon is crisp and outstanding and the portions are huge.

Best place for breakfast and lunch. The one star reviews are from snowflakes that have never run a business! Keep doing you Hellas!

Had egg shells in my omelette. Omelette not bright yellow but dingy and greasy for my taste. Showed them the eggshells. Didn't insist on making right. Didn't finish my meal. I didn't feel like there are any options for the healthy conscience. Everyone raves about the unhealthy options however. I'll stick with First Watch. read more

I've been going here for almost a year. It's one of the few breakfast spots I've found in the area that has a number of unique menu items and a lot of fresh preparation. This is an old cafe style restaurant. It's not fancy and new, but it is well maintained. They keep it clean and organized. The owner has a lot of pride in the place and it carry's forward to all the employees. Now here is why I would drive here from a long distance. If you're a brunch foodie in Columbus and cherish the mimosa and fancy seating, stay there. If you are a breakfast fanatic that loves perfectly cooked home style potatoes and smells of roasted tomatoes (their specialty), you need to head to Shawnee Hills. The omelettes are half the plate and the Greek inspired menu is the differentiator. Wait until you try the roasted tomatoes, orange peel in your omelette or the fresh spanakopita. For you breakfast sandwich types they have a pita that will give you something new. And there are plenty of other traditional items from pancakes and waffles to biscuits and gravy. I hope you like butter! ;) read more

Food and service awesome. Friendly staff and food is always hot and tasty. Open 7 days a week

Always excellent service and food. You won't go away disappointed. I believe they have the breakfast around.

Note: The Menu and the prices here are to be updated. Consider in general the prices are about 25% higher (today in 2023) than they show on here (and even then, I believe you get charged more than what appears on the menu, too small to notice, but I think so! See for yourself) Pros: Homely feel, Great Service (slow, but manageable) Food was excellent tasting, portions are good sized. You order breakfast and it feels like a bigger than lunch portion! Omelettes (can't go wrong with any thing, read up on what is in it and order it) Wraps (yum) Cons: It needs some update, so unless you are one of those people who wants your restaurants to feel like a five star at 2 star prices, you should be very comfortable, though the tables are unsteady (LOL) I never like when restaurants 'politicize' events. Sign on the door about "inflation" is unnecessary. In general, I give it a 3 star, because it was good, not great! But give the business a try. read more

This restaurant and owners have been in this area for a lot of years but we had failed to visit here before tod. I had the spinach, salmon and feta omelette and my husband had the traditional plate with 3 pancakes. Little did we know just how much food was going to be served! My omelette was out of this world! Very tasty and the perfect blend of salmon, spinach and cheese! Half of my meal plus 2 of husbands pancakes went home with us! Highly recommend read more

This place definitely always hits the spot. Massive & delicious portions, friendly staff, and home-like environment!! Always a spot I hit when I'm back home with my family. read more

Love Love Love this place! Great food! Nice staff! We visit as much as we can! Get the brownie and spanakopita!!

Cannot beat a Hellas omelet and fruit bowl any morning. The heavily Greek influenced menu doesn't have a bad dish on it. If you're in need of fine dining, steer clear. This place has all the perfect feels of a neighborhood haunt where you have to wait your turn but the reward is substantial! read more

Never have I been charged extra per plate without prior notice being given. This extra charge is due to owner not wanting to print new menus???!!! Absurd! 3 items ordered were charged higher than what was posted on menu then added $2 extra due to higher food charges???!!! I'm reporting to BBB this is poor business. the food was mediocre at best and this owner is blatantly over charging! Do not get overcharged or swindled this place needs to be closed -not only for swindling but it is also filthy! Wiped my own table with napkin and sanitizer -it was filthy! read more

Best lunch in central ohio. I tend to get the Greek To Me burger and potato salad most of the time but in all the years I've come here I've never been disappointed. read more

Not sure why this place gets all the hype or why it's busy. It's just mediocre and bland food. The service is sub-par and it doesn't feel very clean inside. read more

If you want oversized portions, home cooking and a atmosphere that's not a chain, run by family this is the place. Sadly if you also want a bunch of privileged boomers that can do nothing but complain then this is the place too. Yes there is a wait.... They are understaffed like every other business. Yes there can be long waits.... But I've waited just as long at the Cracker Barrel or Bob Evans. Yes the staff can be snarky at times. But I've noticed you often get what you give. Be good to people, we are all in this mess together fighting many of the same battles. Go and enjoy the food and a step back in time when people cooked like it was home cooking. read more

One of the owners that works the dining area making jokes about the pride parade while I was picking up my carry out order,asked 3 middle aged men if they were going to the"fag parade".there were young children eating with there families and the parents looked appalled.Too bad because food is really good.Dino is what they called him. read more

Ordered takeout today...euro, turkey club with fries, and 2 grilled chicken salads. This place has some seriously good food. The fries were wat hotter then Wendys and it's no farther for us to drive. Fresh, hot, and so tasty. Highly recommend. read more

First time here to meet a friend for lunch. The family diner had a full lunch crowd. Two kind ladies waited on us, and kept our coffee and iced tea glasses full. Note: I was charged twice for the iced tea. Was it the refills? The menu had salads, sandwiches, and breakfast. There are daily specials. We had the chicken salad on half of avocado. The meal was huge! Definitely two women could share it. The gyro was very good. I did get an extra tzatiki sauce because I don't think the chef put any on it. I ate it open faced and it was very good. My friend said the French fries were the best so we split an order, and they were! Want a breakfast or lunch under $10? Come here. The restaurant closes at 2 p.m. read more

Greeted when we entered. Staff friendly and attentive. Food was prepared promptly and as ordered. Down home causal atmosphere. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants a home style casual setting and a great value for the money. read more

Hellas is hella good. Large portions sizes. Locals know about this place so they are always busy. Everything from breakfast food to lunch sandwiches are great. The breakfast potatoes are a must but I warn you they are filling. The omelettes, breakfast pitas. BLT or smoked turkey sandwich are all great. If you like seafood, try the shrimp and crabmeat omelette. My last visit I opted for the egg and crabmeat breakfast pita. read more

Nice neighborhood diner in Shawnee Hills. Salads and sandwiches. There is an extra "inflation" charge right now but would have preferred prices to reflect that. Very reasonable, but probably better just to change the menu. Inflation won't be lowering any time soon. read more

This place is amazing. The service staff is always so friendly and caring. The food is even better! Checkout their specials for off the menu items. Very reasonably priced, and the food is great! read more

Just Absolutely delicious. You really need to share the breakfast at Hellas. They give such large portions and it's also good and nice and hot. Their coffee is very nice. The wait staff is stupendous read more

Not sure how this place is always packed....we walked in for breakfast and were told to wait over by the coats. We stood there for 20min, being ignored except for the rude old man that literally pushed me out of his way on the way into the kitchen. Food took a long time coming to the table. I did not care for the French toast i ordered cuz they were out of the spanakopita. We won't be back. read more
