Great place! I ate with my family and we all ordered something different, it was all excellent. The staff was very helpful. The food came out fast and it was all very fresh. This is an order at the counter and sit down place that brings the food out. Nice ambiance. read more

Hands down the best dinning experience thus far! We were pleasantly greeted and helped by Claudia and staff as we asked questions regarding the extensive menu. Claudia's suggestions hit the spot. She is very knowledgeable and has great taste when suggesting which items to try. We tried the Manouri Flat Pita Bread, Chicken Souvlaki, Lamb Chops, Kids Chicken Skewer and for dessert Baklava Crumble Frozen Yogurt. Everything was delicious! There's soothing Greek music playing in the background of this comfort chic establishment with a cute sit down bar and warm lighting. We will definitely come back for the great food and excellent service! read more

Stopped in for lunch after getting off the train on a Sunday afternoon. The manager was awesome. She was working so hard, caring for customers in a way that was so proactive. I was so impressed and really felt like we were not just customers but valued. Some of the other servers worked hard to make meal experience excellent, too. The food is always delicious and tastes fresh. But today I cheer for the manager! She takes this restaurant and its customers seriously. That made a difference for us! Filling my ice tea, getting more bread, clearing dishes promptly, anticipating needs. So accommodating! Gave me a great feeling and glad we chose to eat here. There are restaurants out there where I've felt like I'm interrupting the staff. Not the case at Kentro read more

Kentro Greek Kitchen - Delicious spread with chick peas. - Greek Near Me - Fullerton, California

I came here bcuz of all the positive reviews. I arrived and the service and kindness was very good. Even as I was waiting for my sandwich, the servers were very kind and wanting to make sure if I needed anything and I was comfortable. That's the customer service "I Love" and wish was more available these days. I was a bit taken back by the price for a Gyro sandwich - over $18.00. Even though I "Did Not" want to pay that price, I went for it especially since I've been looking for over 2 months for a good to great Gyro. To my dimise, I was very disappointed ! First of all the lamb meat was shredded and very flavorless. The tzatziki was almost flavorless as well. I tasted more yogurt than anything. Lastly, they put pickled onions on their sandwich. Who does that? Again, in my valuable opinion, this is an abomination of a Gyro. Here's some backround info on me; I have a good foundation for Gyros being born and raised in Chicago and I visit 2-3 per year. Gyros are a staple to Chicago along with pizza, hot dogs and beef sandwiches Therefore, for many who read this review and have been to Chicago or lived there or still do; you as a customer at this restaurant will definitely agree. By me saying this, I caution you to remember the very high price before you even think of trying / comparing this so called Gyro. Fyi, the price you pay here is equal to 2 Gyros with "A Lot" of lamb meat, non-pickled onions, tomato and very good tasting tzatziki in Chicago. As a matter of fact, Paul's Place here in CA is a good Gyro. It's not great but it is good. I even think Arby's is better than this place, not to mention they are 1/2 the price. As to the other foods they offer, I don't have an opinion. With that being said, I am a bit concerned about the pricing. Call me a sucker for punishment but I may return for a better flavor. And that is Because of the Wonderful Customer Service and Kindness For those of you have read my reviews in the past, I am all about customer service. It is my driving point to enjoying even a not so good food experience. read more

Very disappointed, the food was bland. I've had Olive Pit in Brea and Huntington Beach and that's much better.

food was a 10/10! the flavors were amazinggg and not lacking in anyway at all. i haven't had greek food this amazing in a while!! Service was very friendly and fast in my opinion. The cashier was very sweet, and she gave me suggestions since it was my first time. Only way i think they could improve is by table touching which they didnt do at all. But totally fine since they make everything pretty accessible for you to get your self. Took a star away for cleanliness because they could do a bit better in that department . Will definitely be coming back for takeout soon because the food is incredible! read more

Best Greek food and service around! Everyone should try this place! Paulett , the manager, is a stand out manager and she provides the best customer service I have ever seen. You're missing out if you don't try this place. Food seems like it's imported from Athens! read more

This place is SOOOOO good. Highly recommend this place. Service is great. Vibe here is clean and spacious. The food here is made to order and it's full of flavor!! We got the sausage flatbread and the pork skewer entree. Both of these dishes were so good and full of flavor. It was made to order. Portion sizes are generous so it's great to share. They do let you know the entree takes about 15 mins or so since it's made fresh but its worth it. Highly recommend and will be coming back to try entire menu. read more

both lamb & chicken guros were great in taste & very filling. the chef was so amazing to myself & my guest when celebrating a special occasion even allowing us samples of the honey yogurt dessert so we would know if we liked it. 10/10 will always come back and recommend for feeling casual yet elevated! read more

This place wants to be fine dining but they wanted to save on labor so there still a front counter. The food? Tastes good. The decor? Could almost call it a young-adult date night. Not formal enough to be extra, not doner-shop casual, a semi-cute place to get past the small-talk. The prices? Ouch. Paying that much for a zankou-tier gyro is harsh. Lamb was tasty but once again, ouch. read more

Stop thinking about what to eat and come to Kentro! It will be one of the best decisions you've made in months, who knows maybe even years but I'm not judging! I honestly come here at least twice a week, and sometimes 3 times (no shame). It's conveniently located near the train station I take everyday to come to work. The people and service here are amazing to say the least. Huge shout out to Paulette for always giving me suggestions as to what to order. She has opened my eyes to other foods with her friendly persuasion . Big shout out also to Yech, Maria and Ari for always being the amazing humans that you are. I stick to the Spatiki Salad which has an incredible blend and balance of the hummus with the Chicken and salad ingredients. So good and then the Pita bread it comes with takes it to a mind implosion level. It's the quality of the ingredients that really hits home. Anything you get here is gonna knock you off your shoes, or sandals . The place is big and has a very friendly ambiance, they never disappoint and hence the reason I eat that for more than half of the days of the week. Recommendation: Spatiki Salad Chicken Pita wrap with the lamb wrap set-up. Lamb Burger Tirokafteri Spread Char broiled fish with spinach rice. Tiropites read more

The food here is amazing! My family and I have almost ordered everything on the menu. We have been here 3 times in the last 2 months. I will definitely put this restaurant on our monthly rotation! I love their grilled fish and my husband loves their lamb chops. The kids enjoyed their pita wraps and everyone adores their Kentro Fries!!! Hands down my favorite fries ever! Give this place a try if you're in the area. You will not regret it! read more

Been coming here forever. One of my favorite Mediterranean/Greek restaurants ever- and I've been to Greece. They slightly changed their ingredients a while back, but everything is just as delicious! Every staff member here us always super cool. He probably doesn't work here anymore, but James went above and beyond for us, and deserves special recognition. LOVE. Lamb pita, fries, amethystos white wine and the baklava ice cream sammy (although it's hard to eat) Honorable mention to the fried zucchini and Galaktobouriko (see if you can get it warmed). The spanakopita is very good, but needs more phyllo pastry. read more

After many years of passing by this place, we finally decided to try it. Everything was great. You order at the front instead of being seated while they take your order. This brings a casual ambiance to the restaurant. My husband and I shared the saganaki, tzatziki, lemon potatoes, veggie Flatbread, and the pork pita. We loved everything, especially the saganaki and the tzatziki. I wish I remembered our servers/ bartenders name because he was fantastic. He is Asian and has a unique name. We paired our dinner with a bottle of wine and had a fabulous time. read more

Starting off with the food, my friend and I both got the Chicken Pita - it was amazing! The pita is really soft and packed with chicken, and we could not stop snacking on the Kentro fries. The service was great as well! You order up at the counter before taking a seat, but we were taking a while to choose. Our waiter took the time to walk us through his favorites, and the food came out really quickly as well. Would definitely recommend this place if you're in the Fullerton area! read more

I rarely eat Mediterranean food and I can't even tell you why because I've been missing out. I tried the Pan-fried Fish with Briami (baked seasonal vegetables) minus the feta and the fish was pan-fried perfectly! The exterior was crispy and coated generously with spices while the inside remained tender and flaky. I also love that it came with tzatziki (I think?) because the tartness of the yogurt paired beautifully with the flavors of the fish and veggies. I also sampled some of the Half ( 1/2) Chicken with Lemon Potatoes and wow the lemon potatoes are a must-get side. They were so crispy and buttery. The chicken felt a bit dry but they didn't lack on the flavors, that's for sure. I loved the Greek-style Frappe as a post-dinner dessert. It's probably not a good idea to drink coffee at night but it reminded me of a Dalgona latte with how creamy and fluffy the drink was. The inside is set up where you can order to-go or order first and then find a seat in the restaurant. It's a casual restaurant but with a beautiful interior. read more

Food is very over priced! I got a chicken salad and paid over $20 and then was told I had to pay an additional $2 for Tzatziki! They didn't even give you one with the order which had pita bread and the container was small! I asked for an additional one and they said I would be charged another $2! I paid over $25 for a chicken salad which was subpar! Very disappointed! read more

I came in to Kentro for a quick bite before work. Paulette greeted me with a welcome and recommended the Horiatiki Entree salad since I mentioned I was trying to be healthy. This is my first time here and definitely will be returning to Kentro!!! Fresh and it shows!!! Taste amazing!!! read more

Awesome fries! Must try! A perfect combination of potato, cheese, salt, and herb. We came to this restaurant after a long hike at the Fullerton Loop. I was reminiscing my backpack days in Greece, which prompted Greek food for lunch. The four of us each ordered an entree: char-broiled fish, vegetarian flatbread, lamb sandwiches, and chicken pita. We were pleasantly surprised by the awesome fries. The vegetarian flatbread reminded me of a thin crust pizza, flavorful with slight crunchiness; a safe choice if you're not sure what to order. My friend also ordered a soup that came with two pieces of sourdough bread, which was disappointing because it was such a small bowl of soup! The rest of the dishes are ok. For desserts, we tried the Greek yogurt and the baklava. The yogurt was creamy nutty, with refreshing tartness. The baklava was unremarkable. I like the purple glass wine bottle they use to serve water, which is a nice touch. All orders are collected at the cashier, the waiter only brings the food to you. Very nice indoor decor with olive trees and wall arts. read more

Enjoyed a humus plate and lentil soup. Delicious food, pleasant ambience, and courteous staff.

Johnny and Jannea were super nice and welcoming! Great service! Great food! I loved the pita and tzatziki!

First time here at Kentro. I ordered the Avgolemono soup at the suggestion of Paulette. Oh so good. Very filling. Perfect blend of chicken, rice and lemon. I also ordered the chicken pita. Nice tender chunks of chicken breast, marinated tomatoes and cucumber with a mountain of their Kentro French fries. Everything's so tasty. We will be back soon. Thanks again ro our gracious server Paulette. read more

Had lunch there today. Ordered a salad and asked for walnut vinaigrette versus the feta dressing and the chef said they couldn't do that! The feta dressing on the side looked like a dip rather than a creamy dressing. My friend ordered the pita wrap which was as hard and the meat not tender. Terrible lunch! read more

We came to celebrate my grandson's birthday at his request. He really enjoys Mediterranean cuisine. The food is excellent and our whole clan enjoyed our dining experience immensely. Our party of nine ordered different items, we took bites of each and each were unanimously declared delicious. The fries were of particular excellence but it is hard to single out one item when all were worthy. Ordering is easy at the counter and staff were cordial and very helpful. This is a comfortable and contemporary space. We will certainly come back. read more

Amazing food! You have to try their fries and wild rice when getting sides - delicious. I got the chicken skewers and my husband got the lamb pita - delicious as well. The ambiance is clean and classic. We were tended to well as the service was wonderful. We will be coming back. read more

I am a little behind in posting this review. Since we discovered this gem last March 20th, we've been here 3 more times and tried several delectable yet healthy greek specialties. First time - avgolemono soup, horiatiki salad, lamb flatbread and octopus. All 4 were delicious. The salad dressing was sooo good and octopus was sooo tender. Second time - horiatiki, saganaki and calamari. For saganaki, they use kefalotiri cheese which was amazing. The calamari is different from most other places in that it is not dry. It was cooked with red tomato sauce, while this was good - it was my least favorite of the dishes I've had here by far. 3rd time - paithakia (char-broiled lamb chops, briami (baked seasonal veggies with feta) and kalamboki (roasted corn). The lamb chops were good and perfectly seasoned and the kalamboki with kefalotiri butter was to die for. 4th time - lamb flat bread, octopus and kalamboki. As you can see, we love this place so much that it has become our go-to place when we go visit Mom in Fullerton. The service here is outstanding. Much like Fuoco, everyone here is so friendly, attentive and efficient. Special mention and thanks to Firaz. Not sure if all my photos will get uploaded but YOU absolutely should check them out NOW!!! read more
