If you like great Greek classics this is the only place you'll ever need to go. Gyros with homemade sauce. Dogs and burgers slathered in a special Greek sauce that's made from scratch. Only the best quality meats including Smith's provisions! I've been eating here consistently since the 1990's and I haven't went to the East Side location since. read more

New York Lunch - Two generation one employees almost 30 years later with the owner. The best of times. - Sandwiches Near Me - Erie, Pennsylvania

In town on business and as an Elite Yelper I'm always searching for local establishments, so I was thrilled to find this cute little diner. The guys were all welcoming and friendly and even offered to bring my order to my car for me. I went for the lunch special, 2 Greek dogs (coney's with mustard and onion) and a drink. The hot dogs had a little snap (which I love!) and the coney sauce was appropriately spicy with a tiny kick of heat. The buns seemed steamed, which was also great, in my opinion. I also ordered a side of fried mushrooms- wow! The small size was definitely enough for two! But man! Probably the best fried mushrooms I've ever had. The batter was light and fluffy and also nicely crispy. Perfect! So happy I found this little Greek diamond. And that, folks, is all she wrote. read more

Erie local made the suggestion and boy was he right. Friendly staff. We had Greek dog, Greek burger and Greek fries along with regular fries. All food was great we had that night we will have a do over meal for sure. read more

Bomb AF! The food is beyond amazing and the prices are super CHEAP! If you want some dang good food go there! Turkey Swiss sandwich was fire and their burgers are so juicy you can't eat just one so Deff order 2 maybe 3! Staff was super friendly and really kind too! You don't wanna pass this place up! 2 Burgers, a sandwich, large loaded cheese fries and large drink was less than $20. You can feed your entire family at a third of the cost at Five Guys! Seriously go eat here! read more

Whaaaat!!! So good, and fairly priced. Folks are super nice. I never had a Greek dog and burger until New York lunch and the sauce was delicious! Gyros were full of meat and sauce was thick and good! I recommend it to try it highly if you are in the area. It is small inside so prepare to eat outside or in the car but it is worth it!! Get the 6 burger/hot dog deal! read more

Great local place to get burgers, dogs, and gyros. The Greek sauce they are known for is very similar to southern chili. Great prices! Mostly outside dining but we were able to eat inside. Staff were the hardest and most efficient working people I have seen in a long time. Great attitudes and service even though they were super busy! Stopped here on the way through. Parked RC across the road in large parking lot. read more

Was my go to stop. For a good hot lunch for me and the boy. Today made me rethink taziki sauce no cucumbers. Gyro meat looked like the cook had it on flat top for hours. Sons Greek sauce. Was watery and the fries. Soaked up the water. No flavor. What's the owner on vacation. Sloop food read more

The food and service was amazing! The staff is friendly and very accommodating and the food was delicious and so affordable! Definitely will be back! read more

Good food. Good service. Good price. Saw this place as I was driving into town. I hate chains and figured I would check it out. Smaller than I expected but no complaints. read more

I love the vibe of this place. The decorations are so cool and the food is amazing. The "six pack" which is a mix of hotdogs and burgers or you can do all 6 of each one is a great deal for $15. I was more than full afterwards and I was able to take home my leftovers in a brown bag. My favorite between the two is the burger. The specials are a great deal and don't break the bank. I highly recommend coming here for a quick bite to eat! read more

Cheap tasty hot dogs and quick service. I got a Greek dog and it's a little small (more like a snack for me Haha, not a meal) but worth the $2. Small establishment, with one table inside and a couple outside to eat your food. read more

People are very nice good food for the price. Food is very cheap! And they have Mr.Pibb what more could you ask for!

Authentic Erie greek sauce and Smiths hot dogs. Buns are to flimsy and needed a fork. Soggy buns earned four instead of five stars. Hope they fix that read more

Gyros and burgers were great! Would highly recommend for a quick lunch. Service was quick

Tom runs a tight ship the dogs an fry's are excellent B wilkinson east side Erie always worth the drive to the west side

Stopped by for lunch. Roger was very helpful and kind. They had a special for 6 burgers or dogs for $9.50. You could mix and match. We ordered 4 hotdog and 2 burgers all with chili and cheese. We also ordered fries. Hot dogs were delicious. The burger was just very very thin and just honestly nothing special. The chili isnt hearty or full of flavor. Fries were ok but not fresh cut. Indoor and outdoor seating plus a drive thru. Prices, service and hot dogs make this 4 stars. I will stop by again but ill stick with the hot dogs and avoid the burger. read more

Chicken gyro was amazing! Their homemade sauce is great. Wished there was more indoor seating, but they do well with what they have. Everyone was very friendly and the cashier even gave me a rose because it's the week of Valentine's Day. read more

New York Lunch - Chicken gyro, cheese steak gyro, large cheese fries - Sandwiches Near Me - Erie, Pennsylvania

This was an interesting choice as the pictures were not overly helpful in deciding but the reviews were very good. We took a chance and and a look. There were two gents working and we're both running hard but the wait was brutally long and they really need more help (lost a star). As for the food, it was very good. My wife and I had the burger but it was more of a really nicely spiced sloppy joe. My daughter had the gyro and really enjoyed it. They have tables outside and are dog friendly. They do have bathroom facilities. We will most definitely be back. Hope the pics I took are helpful! read more

Killer, no-frills Greek burgers, dogs, and fries. We loved every delicious, greasy bite! Inexpensive comfort food served up by some super nice guys working the counter. I hadn't been here for almost fifteen years, and it was exactly how I remembered it! read more

Visited NYL on a recent trip to Lake Erie. Pleasantly surprised by this place. It is very non-assuming looking like your run of the mill food stand. The service was super quick and super friendly. There were 3 young men working the day of our visit. They seem to work together like a well oiled machine. They were super busy but remained friendly and courteous throughout our visit. Someone came in with a large order and I overheard one of the guys offering to bring the food to their car when it was ready so they didn't have to wait in the crowded dining room. Okay, so the food! My husband and I both orders 2 dogs, we each got a coke and shared an order of fries. The total was like $12 !! Our wait was minimal and we really enjoyed our food. The dogs were small so we did needed the 2 each. They came with what I think was chili (or a meat gravy) and maybe onions and mustard. I am guessing that is the standard way they come, so you may want to check before ordering, if that is not your thing. What ever the combo of topping was, it was fantastic. The Coke was nice and cold and yummy. Fries where crispy hot and fresh. I loved the dogs and can't wait to our next trip to Erie so we can go back. read more

I had no idea what to expect. There are at least two businesses with this name in Erie. I ordered a Greek hot dog and Gyros. OH MY WORD!!! Both were amazing! I was wishing for a dozen more Greek dogs after I ate the one I ordered. I will be back!!!! read more

How am I the first one to review this place? Oh well... I have one word: Amazing. I went here on my way to the beach with a couple friends who told me to stop here for lunch, (I probably would've never done it on my own, it looks like an old shoebox.) And we did, and, amazing! If you're a fan of anything "greek", dogs, burgers, fries.. this is your place. If you're any kind of health nut, this is NOT your place, but then you probably wouldn't eat at a place known for their hot dogs n anyway, would you. I'm told that this greek phenomena is an Erie thing... Let me explain what this is. They take a Smith's hotdog (awesome hotdogs, you try one and your hooked) put it in a bun, and then cover it with "Greek Sauce." This is a mixture of finely chopped ground beef in a flavorful sauce that is hard to describe. Then if you like, they top it with cheese. Amazing. I think the only downside, there's not much of a place to sit. There are only 3 small tables on the inside, and a couple patio tables on the outside. So far, everytime I've gone, I get a seat, but It doesn't seem like very much. I think a lot of people also get their food to go... This place is rediculously cheap too. When you go, you'll most likely see a fluge of lawncare workers and construction workers getting lunch on the cheap. Amazing. read more

I live in a big cosmopolitan area now. I can find anything in Chicago. Anything except pepperoni balls and greek sauce.(pepperoni balls is for another review.) Ok..my adopted hometown is known for a kick-a$$ hotdog. Chicago dogs rock. But I guarantee that a New York Lunch Dog from Erie ,Pa smothered in that delicious greek sauce would definately cause mass defects from the Chicago dog. Ok, I will say this...I do prefer Vienna beef hotdogs in chi-town as opposed to Smith dogs in Erie when it comes to the dog alone. But when toppings are considered....the erie dog with greek sauce wins. At first I just thought it was nostalgia. Maybe the Erie dogs with greek sauce weren't so good.... So last time in Erie, I stopped by to get a Greek Dog.. Um...nope...not just nostalgia. The greek sauce on the hot dogs are superb. Erie might not be New York, Chicago or LA but trust me... This underdog from Erie would win. You guys are the Rocky of the hotdog world. read more

We wish that New York Lunch was in New York !!! Every time we all come to Erie from Syracuse, New York... this is on our MUST do list for Greek burgers and Greek Fries !!!! And we bring home 2 quarts of Greek sauce in the cooler , packed in ice !!! Delicious !!!! read more

I love hot dogs with Greek Sauce, something that's hard to find here in the Chicagoland area. That's why whenever I go back to my hometown of Erie, Pa. I go to New York Lunch foe their hot dogs and chili cheese fries! The owner is the only person who makes the greek sauce so you're assured of the same great taste every time. I always buy a gallon of their sauce to bring back home with me which usually lasts me 6 months. This place is my absolute favorite for greek dogs anywhere! read more

Owner and workers are very friendly and warm. Best Greek sauce in Erie. Their gyros are also great.

Great value, and great Greek dogs. Fed 6 people for about $30. You can tell by the clientele, working guys come here to fill their bellies.

I ordered Greek fries and dogs. When I got home I found that the fries were not cooked (right out of the bag). They were covered in cheese and Greek sauce but pure white and cold. read more

Cheap eats , and good eats !! I hit them for the gyro's . It is not fancy , it is not white table cloth but it is good and cheap .

Need a Smith's hot dog with Greek sauce (an Erie staple)? Here's your place. While it may not have the allure or ambiance of Sara's, frankly, they do hot dogs better. Good prices also! read more

The greek dog is one of the best I have ever had. Fried mushrooms were perfect. The staff was very friendly. Nothing but kind words for this place. read more

Great Greek food at a low price! My boyfriend and I ate in for lunch today and used a coupon for buy one get one free-- great value and staff was very nice and accommodating! read more

The food at this place is simply fantastic. Rich in authentic flavor and appearance. Extremely friendly location- as if they are welcoming you into their home for a fresh cooked meal. The only "bad" thing about this restaurant, is the seating is not too comfortable. The cash only policy was also a little inconvenient. But now I know better for next time! read more

Without Yelp, we would have passed this place up too. It's very small with big taste! The employees were super nice. We'll be back.
