Been going for about 1 year now and the food is consistently excellent. Service is quick, staff is friendly. Just love that charred taste. Try it, you'll be hooked. Wayne read more

Great place for Greek food! Very little seating inside so don't be surprised if you don't get to eat in. They sell a good amount of Greek sundries and other stuff for you to do your own cooking so you know what they are using in the kitchen is authentic. I had the Spanakopitaka - triangle filled pastry pies. Stuffed with spinach, and feta - and they were waesome. The Greek Fries -- Fresh cut fries with oregano salt, were amazing as well. I took home a Greek Salad -- Tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, onions, feta cheese and olives, and loved that too. Service was very friendly and helpful even with it being all behind the counter. read more

Good portion on everything but pita. Felt like I needed more pita if I want to finish my feta dip. Even for the beef lamb platter, I wish they give at least two pita. Otherwise I'm pretty happy with the portion they gave. It's a budget friendly meal to get. It's a very causal and mainly take out. The workers were super friendly. There are many Greek products displaying around the restaurant and top it off with some Greek music. Love the vibe! read more

This is my go to take out spot! It's so good love love love!! It is always so delish ... staff amazing

It's been a while since I updated my review, so I decided to do it again. We ordered the following: Beef and lamb gyro platter. This comes with pita, lettuce tomato, onion, tzatziki and a choice of one side. We thought that this was a big platter. It's meant to feed for one but it fed 3 with extra to spare. We couldn't finish it and brought it home. This was a great value and it was delicious. Daughter loved the beef and lamb combined. We got lemon potatoes as our choice of potatoes. They were great, as were the salad and pita. Melitzanosalata- came with a side of pita. Hubs loved this eggplant dip and thought it was delicious. Avgolemono bowl, which is an egg lemon chicken soup. This was nice and light and lemony. This place has always been our favorite. Service was ok, it's fast casual. You order and pay with the cashier and wait for your food. Out of all their locations, this spot is my favorite. Will return to try other items on the menu. read more

I was at the Jersey Shore outlets and checked Yelp for "best greek salad near me". Yup, Yelp nailed it. This greek salad was fresh and delicious and exactly what i was looking for. I also ordered a side of Tzatziki and it was one of the best i've had ... no joke. this place is legit and I will definitely be back! read more

Gyro sandwich meat was iced cold, not fresh tasting and skimpy portion. For the price they charge, should include fries. Had big expectations, but just a big waste of money. read more

Been going here for a few years but tonight was the last time. Apparently someone there is shedding, because I found long black hairs in my gyro, grape leaves and house salad. Absolutely disgusting. read more

Top notch, delicious, very generous portions. Got the chicken souvlaki platter and lentil soup (which was a surprise favorite). read more

Delicious, convenient pick up for our summers in Ocean Grove. Generous portions to share with the grandkids.

As someone who loves Greek food, I always have high expectations. This spot was awesome! Not only did the food get delivered hot and ready to eat, but the portions were out of this world. So many leftovers which is always a nice bonus! read more

Great tasting, fresh food prepared like Yaiyai made it! Friendly, fast service and fair prices! It should be on your "go/to" list. The ambiance is simple but nice enough for lunch or a casual dinner. Cannot recommend it enough! read more

The Greek Spot - Many years ago! - Greek Near Me - Ocean Township, New Jersey

Very delicious, very fresh, and good value for the quality. Very casual spot, nice staff.

I got food to go yesterday, vegan odissey and moussaka. The food was exceptional, however, the vegan dish was missing the falafel.....and I just realized it when I got home! I'm sure it was an oversight but it was not even busy at lunch time. This is the only reason for the four stars, will surely be back! read more

THE BEST! Best best best Greek food I've ever had! Found this place on yelp while visiting the area and it was beyond expectations! The service was beyond amazing from beginning to end!

I love this place! The food is fantastic, tastes fresh and perfectly seasoned. Service is excellent as well, food has always been ready on time. The women who run the front are always so nice and pleasant and beautiful. And whoever is cooking in the back is doing an excellent job as well. The place looks nice and clean from what I've seen, though I admit I've only gotten take out from here. I will keep on coming! read more

One of my go to spots when visiting the area. I love being served in to-go tins. Just makes it easier. They give you enough food for 2 meals. My gyro is on point and the house salad is so good. My wife's Pastichio was very good. Her choice of side was the lemon soup. Tasted just like my mom's. Finally the dessert Galaktobureko is made fresh everyday. How you can ignore this spot, I don't know how. One of the best Greek spots in NJ. Having a Greek market inside is a nice touch. read more

We came in for dinner over the weekend; we were surprised that the dishes were served in tin containers and on plastic trays. We have been to the location in Red Bank, which is more of a restaurant, but this is more of a * takeout * stop with picnic tables outside; grab a seat inside/ outside and self-serve everything in between. We didn't realize these two locations were night and day for a weekend date night. When you arrive, you order from the cashier and pick up your food at the other end of the counter when they call your name. It was our first time at this location & we were looking around for utensils. ( plastic available) There weren't any plates, and we ate from our trays and tins. In addition, unlike the restaurant, they do not serve fried zucchini. It was very apparent that they knew their regular customers, and even though we were stopping in for the first time, we got mediocre greetings and poor service. read more

Got food from here couple of days ago and still upset, the lamb kabobs were so hard to chew, nasty salad soggy and the bread on top of the salad made it more soggy, the grape leaves were bad, too much dill, not going back again ever read more

This is hands down our favorite spot to eat. I would gladly drive an hour for the Loukaniko alone. Prices are reasonable and the food never takes too long to come out. My go to order is the Loukaniko pita with spicy feta and Taziki. The Greek fries are definitely something to write home about as well. Can't recommend this place enough! read more

Met a friend for lunch. 3 pleasant ladies were at the counter taking orders. I wasn't sure what I wanted as it smelled so good in there. I finally decided on the chicken souvlaki platter. It was too much food and can certainly do two meals for me anyway. Maybe three! Chicken was juicy and fries were cooked well. Took it home for a snack later. My friend had the lamb which was the special and he enjoyed it. Ate it all. Next time I'm in town, this will be a spot I keep on my list. read more

Great food, large portions, classic dishes. You honestly can't beat it when you're in the mood for Greek this is a great option. Love the gyro fries just wish they were served a little warmer. read more

Food galore! I ordered the Lamb Souvlaki Platter and Falafel side. First, the portions, man so much food and a great price! The food was done seemingly immediately and tasted fresh after my drive back. The Lamb Souvlaki was tender and well seasoned. The pita had a nice olive oil spread with salt and pepper. Was a little bit thin for my liking, but still tasted great. Fries we're fantastic, and nice that it included a nice fresh salad to balance out the strong tastes. The falafel was crispy and tasted pretty fresh. A nice side salad with that as well. A great little hole in the wall with great food! Total gem! read more

Greek chicken salad was super bland. Not much seasoning on the salad. The chicken was dry, no shade to put on it to st least make it moist.

I've been here many times before. It used to be good. And I don't believe I can chalk it up to being an off night. They were pretty slow for a Monday night (no take out bags, no one sit down dining). So why the disappointment? Personnel have changed. Perhaps, ownership may have which is why the meals sucked so badly. That resulted in such a sub par gyro (beef/lamb) that was dry as a 50 yo whore, severely skimping on the tsazkiki sauce and nearly devoid of any lettuce/tomato/red onion. The person doing the meal prep obviously doesn't know how to make a gyro. I'm local and you're permanently off the boards with that big fail last night to what is a basic Greek order. I'll now veer towards the Greek Guys for my Greek which is much closer, but I've always gone to the Greek Spot. . God, what a disappointment. You ought to be arrested for bagging that garbage that I bought. read more

Whether your looking for some delicious Greek food or some Greek food products this is a great stop. When you walk in it looks very much like a typical deli. There are some prepared foods behind the counter and there are grocery items around the store. There is a menu board behind the counter with items that you can order fresh. My husband ordered the chicken kabob platter and I ordered a Greek salad (with lettuce and chicken). They also make a traditional Greek salad with tomatoes and cucumbers. Both of our meals were tremendous and easily shareable. We both ended up taking half our meal home. The chicken was seasoned well, tender and delicious. Since the food is prepared fresh expect a little wait for it. If you're in a rush call ahead. There are tables inside and a picnic table outside if you're looking to eat in. Plenty of parking in the attached lot. read more

I found this place by accident and it changed my life for the better. I know that sounds very over-dramatic but it's true. I kid you not, when ever I'm with any of my friends on campus or in the Long Branch/ Eatontown area, I always suggest to come here. First off, the staff is amazing! Sweetest people in the world. I always have questions about the food and menu and they always have an answer, plus they taught me a lot about greek food! The inside also has a small greek grocery store, which I found very interesting. You come in for a meal and leave with a meal plus groceries! Now times for the food... I'm getting hungry just writing this review The food is sooo fresh! I usually get the chicken and lamb platters which are $12 each and HUGE. They have fresh pita with spices sprinkled on top, and it's always warm and soft. They have home-made hot sauce which you can try when you eat in and if you like it you can buy some at the register! IF YOU ARE A POTATO LOVER, I HAVE SOME GREAT NEWS FOR YOU If you get any sides make sure you get the lemon potatoes and the greek fries! Both are OUTSTANDING!! The food here is inexpensive, fresh, and filling. Definitely one of my top recommendations for this area!! read more

Came here for dinner before a concert at Count Basie theatre. We didn't allow ourselves enough travel time from Philly and were in a bit of a rush. Informed waitress that we only had about 50 minutes and she was very accommodating and asked the chef to prioritize our order. The manager came by a few times to check on us and brought an extra bowl of olives when we remarked how good they were. Portions were HUGE and attractively plated. For appetizers we enjoyed hummus and an eggplant dip and pitas. Our mains were lamb shank, rotisserie lamb, lamb kabobs, and moussaka. A side of lemony potatoes and stewed green beans were great compliments to the mains. Each plate came with a small bowl of tzatziki. Excellent friendly service and pleasant atmosphere. Highly recommend Greek Spot! read more

5 stars because in the last month alone Mr and I have eaten here with a combined take-out / eat in at least times!!! I know right?! Had to grab lunch here after reading Brenda C's review and you know (whisper)- "she's in the know!" LOL We both ordered the beef and lamb gyro platter, I got the lemon potatoes I LOVE THESE and Mr got the fries- first the portion- you won't go hungry - neither of us could finish our meals and we were still full when dinner came around so I had plenty of leftovers for lunch the next day. The flavors were fresh and seasoned with the lemon and olive oil and Greek seasonings ohhh! so good, and that was just our first dine in! I have since also ordered take out after work with variations of sides, rice, veg, fries etc, I get there usually 30 minutes before closing and its always packed- but the sweet young lady that take the orders & works the register is always smiling and happy. The chefs are always smiling and saying hello to customers, it seems that everyone knows everyone!! I have ordered the feta cheese in a block to take home for salads (MR loves feta cheese) and it's amazing that they offer a few different options of cheese. I always buy a larger container of the Tzatziki sauce, because it's total deliciousness duhhh and I happily use it as a replacement dressing instead of Cesar or ranch or just as a dip for my wheat triscuits. I would eat here twice a week if I could get away with it!!! who am I kiddin'.. YOU KNOW I already am! read more

We have eaten at the Greek spot several times in the past. Although those times the food was impeccable and the service was spot on, this occasion we felt a little less than impressed. We felt that maybe the restaurant has "jumped the shark" as they say. Service was poor and the server on this particular night although usually friendly seemed hurried and quite gruff. The owner who usually walks around and greets patrons seemed a little less than attentive. We felt hurried and not as well taken care of asking several times to fill our glasses. It seemed that they needed more help than they had that night. The usual waitress was nowhere in sight. She is a sweet woman who spends time with you and offers suggestions on the menu. The food also didn't quite taste as flavorful and portions seemed somewhat smaller than usual. I guess the economy has affected the restaurant industry as well. Hopefully they will come back to their original splendor but for now I think we will hold off on future visits and hopefully we will return when the time is right. read more

Still my favorite Greek restaurant. Despite never seeing the owners behind the register anymore, this location still has its originally authentic vibe. The food is delicious and comes out quick! I buy many groceries there as well because when purchased online they are outrageously priced. I am so glad this business has expanded to two other locations because the owners deserve every blessing! We eat here often, and even had our wedding dinner at the Red Bank location. Thank you for bringing Greece to NJ! read more

I really love this place! I've been twice and they always serve such big portions. I always have leftovers and can make a new meal out of it the next day. Both times I've had the chicken souvlaki platter with lemon potatoes and tzatziki. The chicken is so flavorful and the lemon potatoes are out of this world. I love the tangy taste that you get from the lemons. It's addicting! The spanakopita is always golden and perfectly flaky and it's difficult to stop eating that as well. The avgolemono soup is perfect for a cold day!! It's like chicken soup with hints of lemon. Very hearty and makes a great comfort food. I've just recently started exploring Greek cuisine and I love it. Their menu has lots to choose from so you know I'll be back! read more

The Greek Spot - Chicken Souvlaki and Broiled Octopus - Greek Near Me - Ocean Township, New Jersey

The food here is usually excellent but this is now the 2nd time I asked for pork souvloki and got lamb. Not hard to tell the difference and lamb is not my favorite. I was really looking forward to a great meal but tonight I'll give 3 stars for the food. Service was fast, but the lamb was overcooked and definitely not what I ordered. I live too far away to call and bring it back. I might try again in the future but as I said, this is the 2nd time this has happened so perhaps I won't order this again. Very disappointed. read more

Excellent food & large portions. The chicken souvlaki is cooked to perfection always-juicy and full of flavor. I love the lemon potatoes- I need the recipe!! I'm also a fan of the spanakopita- the slice is huge! It it's accompanied by either a fantastic greek salad or soup. If you have room for dessert be sure to try the Galaktoboureko- it reminds me of a baked rice pudding or a custard- it's very good and you will be craving it long after you have finished it. I highly recommend the Greek Spot. read more
