    Margarita
    Mel S.

    Came here on a Saturday evening to enjoy some dinner before heading to a movie to stay dry in the rainy weather. Located conveniently in the heart of downtown Alameda, this was a great spot to stop by! Staff and Service: - We were helped right away upon entering - All staff were nice and helpful Food and Drinks: - Margarita: not the best Margarita, but it was good - Bloody Mary: first time I've seen this - instead of bacon, it comes with gyro meat! - Greek Fries: definitely made upon order as these are hot and crispy - Beef Souvlaki Wrap: tasty, flavorful, and filling (definitely recommend using both of their hot sauces if you like spice) - Gyro Wrap: also tasty, flavorful, and filling - Tzatziki Appetizer: comes with one pull pita (four slices) Miscellaneous: - Plenty of seating for groups of 1-4 (I'm sure they can put some tables together). Bar seating available (with a big TV) - Parking available via street parking or parking in the Civic Center parking structure - The acoustics must be good because the restaurant was pretty full, but it wasn't loud (love this)

    I love a good Greek place. Alameda has so many choices. Food was great! Service at first ...we weren't sure whether we seat ourselves or not. People walked by us not saying anything. So we sat ourselves. But apparently we went in the wrong seats. lol. After that everything went up hill. Service was great. Loved the recommendations. Smaller restaurant and felt cozy.

    This was our second time dining here and food and service have been great. It has a nice open dining area with outdoor seating. We ordered the salmon platter, falafel wrap and Greek fries. The salmon platter was served with grilled zucchini, rice, tomato/cucumber salad and pita bread. It was delicious with a generous serving. Falafel wrap was mediocre, but the Greek fries were the best in town. So good! We'll definitely be back.

    Walt from Walt's Adventures reporting from Troy. Regrettably, not from Greece but, instead, from Alameda, California. This Greek restaurant has a lovely indoor dining area and also a covered outdoor dining area for those who enjoy the outdoors. We were immediately directed to our table and were soon enjoying our drinks. Our selections were all quite good. They all possessed an attractive appearance. The platter, as seen in the attached picture, was created with great care, the Greek fries prevented me from consuming just one, and the Falafel was... ok. Our party found the Falafel good but was a bit on the dry side for our tastes. My followers will no doubt know that my reviews of Greek eateries are rare. Troy is a great restaurant If one is seeking conversation and great food, then travel to our nearby island of Alameda

    Staff was great. Made sure we got everything and checked on us. The food was ok. Not bad but not great. The taste and seasoning was there but not enough that I wanted another bite. Love the fries it nice and crispy and not greasy.

    Troy's has fantastic Mediterranean food! We sat down right away - no waiting. I ordered the Meza Platter (vegetarian appetizers) as my entree. The menu lists components as Hummus, Falafel, Dolmas, Melitzano salata, Feta cheese, Olives and served with pita. ($16) I also got an order of Spanokopita ($7)

    Food 3.5/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance 3.5/5 Fried Calamari appetizer (3/5) was good, but small quantity for the price ($18). Garlic Fries (5/5) & Onion Rings (4/5) were crisp! The Chicken Souvlaki was flavorful (4/5), but the Lamb Souvlaki was a bit overcooked (3.5/5).

    Our guest's favorite food is Mediterranean, so we took her here after our visit to Rosenblum Winery. Quality/Quantity - All the food was good! As they always are. Falafel - Today I felt it was a little dry?? But still good. Saganaki - Also called salted cheese where our guest is from. This was good, but of course we would have preferred more cheese. Just being greedy. Gyro Platter - Two orders. My favorite and my usual, but as always, I was not able to finish. Gyro Wrap - Small. My daughter enjoyed it and finished it. Beef Souvlaki Wrap - Small. Our guest's favorite and she was able to finish. Atmosphere - Causal Greek cuisine. Replaced the former Pappo. Open 7 days a week from 11am to 9pm. Indoor/outdoor seating. Metered street parking, but if you are willing to walk an extra block or two, there is free street parking. Service - Good. Delivery by Grubhub, Uber Eats, and Doordash. Price - Approximately $95 + tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success with your recent expansion to Pappo and your 3 locations. I have been to 2 of your 3 locations and still have not visited your Martinez location.

    I was in the bay area and was craving some Greek food so I looked around and found this place. They have a few locations, but I picked the one in Alameda since it was closer. As far as parking there is a parking lot close by and also Street parking. There is seating inside and they also have seating outside. There was just two people eating outside and the inside was empty. I found that kind of odd for a Sunday afternoon. I was expecting a bit more of decoration inside for it being a Greek restaurant as far as ambience. The only sound inside was coming from a TV showing a baseball game. I ordered the Gyros platter, Chicken Souvlaki Platter, and Greek fries. I was disappointed in the rice and the Gyros platter. Their lamb and beef tasted like it had been sitting for a while, and it did not have much of a good taste. What was really delicious was their grilled chicken. It had a very nice charbroiled taste. I was just disappointed in the fact that they give you only one kabab for the price that they're charging. The Greek fries were good. The fries were very crunchy and yummy. It just needed more garlic and Parmesan. I did try both of their hot sauce, a red one and also a green one the green one had a cilantro taste it was a mix of flavor but delicious. The other red sauce was spicy, but had a good taste. The server was super attentive and she did amazing hats off to her.

    Troy is fine? But between lack of good/warm service, generic ambiance and average food, I'm putting it at 3 stars. It's not bad, by any means and if your jonesing for Greek food, it works. The saganaki appetizer wasn't the flamed cheese in a cast iron pan but more charred cheese - a pass from me. I went with the the salmon platter which consisted of salmon, rice and vegetable. Although the restaurant was empty, the food tasted cold, however the salmon was good, the thick strips of grilled zucchini were cold and void of flavor. Overall, solid eats. I'd stick with the reasonably priced wraps and understand its more of a fast casual spot that happens to have a server. * Note: they have a gyro bloody mary that seems intriguing!

    Best gyros around. They have two sauces on each table, and both were made by an angel and placed in those bottles.

Buscatini with chicken, eggplant and lamb, stipe bass with white sauce, palella with seafood. Bucatini and sauce was delicious. The chicken that topped it was a bit dry. Eggplant was good! The lamb was a bit gamey tasting. My son thought it was from New Zealand as their lamb taste is more prominent. Stripe bass with white sauce and veggies good! We wanted salmon but it was sold out. Palella was flavorful and enjoyable. Everything on this plate cooked just right! To continue the celebration we ate dessert! Crème brûlée, raspberry sorbet, chocolate crème. Delectable and hit the spot finish :-) Thank you Asena for capping off a beautiful day with tantalizing our tastebuds.

I was in the area looking to grab a bite before heading to Southie to catch the Hawks manhandle the Niners. As usual, the restaurant that I always look to forward to visiting is Hummus Republic. Once I found some parking around the corner, I was happily skipping down the block towards the entrance, until... The place was dark, and no one was inside. I had to do a double take to make sure it wasn't one of the scheduled closed days. Sure enough, it was not. There was also no signage on the window or any mention of a vacation or emergency. It was just... closed. As I looked inside, I noticed some furniture and decor had already been removed, so I knew it was beyond the point of no return. In any event, it is indeed a dark time for me, as I frequented Hummus Republic quite often. Yes, I know it is a chain, but the nearest one that I know of now is all the way in Livermore near the outlets. Honestly, it's not completely a shock though, as this particular location was often empty, and I also heard that rent is quite high. There are also alternative Mediterranean shops in the vicinity, such as Tahina and Q's, but none of them combine the level of freshness, convenience and overall value as Hummus Republic. Although it's a lazy comparison used a zillion times before, just think of Hummus Republic as the Chipotle of Mediterranean fare. Depending on who you get serving you, portions can range from large to absolutely gargantuan. It's no exaggeration when I say that a single bowl serving is pretty much enough for both lunch and dinner. Coming from a pig like yours truly, that is saying a lot! Sadly, this exact address also seems to have a high turnover rate, as I have seen a myriad of various businesses sprout up there in recent years. Hopefully the next tenant will provide something to fill the inevitable void. RIP Hummus Republic! You will be sorely missed! The only thing that improved my mood after witnessing this sad news was watching the Hawks absolutely mollywhop the Niners. :‑D

We ordered a mini lamb wrap, mini chicken wrap, rose tamarind drink and mint lemonade. The lamb was gristly and dry, so I preferred the chicken wrap, but was disappointed to find that it featured only chicken (well-seasoned and juicy) and did not have any tomatoes, cucumbers, or other vegetables like the lamb wrap did. The chicken wrap was only chicken and lavash. Perhaps it was an oversight on the staff's part, even though the restaurant was not busy during a Friday lunch. And it also still took some time to get our orders out even though we were the only ones in line and there were only two other parties eating there. Maybe there were tons of to-go orders they had to fulfill? I'll be sure to check out the Santa Clara location as well in the future, but for this luncheon, we had to temper our disappointment by going around the corner to get some Gregory's.
