Delicious Gyros. I prefer the lamb but the chicken is tender and good too. Fresh veggies cooked al dente, not mushy - yum. The egg-lemon soup is wonderful. Large portions. We often order a Spanokopita and Tyropites appetizers with a Greek salad for two and it is plenty. The entrees are large enough to share. Good hummus - actually all the dips are good. The kebabs are well done unless you make a big deal about wanting them medium with pink in middle. Tasty but be specific how you want them cooked. Easy to go paleo or vegan here. The staff is friendly and attentive. Its in a shopping center near Whole Foods. Rarely have trouble finding parking or a table. They deliver via Grub Hub. It isnt fancy but its a nice comfortable storefront restaurant with wood tables/chairs, Greek paintings on the walls & cheerful Mediterranean music playing in the background. Is an easy place for me to take my 85 year old Mom who had to haul an oxygen tank around. So, handicapped friendly.

This restaurant completely failed to meet the expectations it set. This was the worst meal at a purportedly Greek restaurant--it bore no resemblance whatsoever to Greek cuisine. The papousakia (stuffed eggplant) my son ordered had a big glob of tomato paste on top and feta cheese (for the price, it should have been prepared correctly with chopped tomatoes mixed with the ground meat filling the eggplant and drizzled with a bechamel sauce). The salmon had a floury sauce that had no seasoning--it was supposed to be flavored with lemon. This restaurant pretends to be Greek, but is owned by a Syrian who has Mexicans cooking the food who have never been taught how to cook Greek food. The only positive was the servers who did a good job.

Cafe Graikos is located in the Porter Ranch plaza next to Whole Foods. Parking is plenty so there usually isnt a problem finding a spot. The staff is friendly, I ordered a large order and they offered to help me put it in the car. As far as the food, I ordered a beef kabob lunch plate which also came with rice, salad, and hummus. They were pretty good, although I think the amount of meat was a little small. But that just might be the amount for the lunch portion, so next time I will try the dinner portion.

The good is GREAT!!! We recently stopped in, hoping that we could find authentic, Greek food. We were greeted and seated by our wonderful server (dark haired young lady) who was helpful with our menu questions and a great server. The food is FRESH and the meat melts in your mouth. The portions are good. Do NOT MISS OUT!!! The atmosphere is very upbeat but you can hear yourself talk. By the time we left, the place was full.

Im so excited about this that place I dont think Ill be able to sleep tonight YUM YUM YUMMMM!

This year is the 20th year anniversary and I know why. The food and freshness is beyond commendable and the servers make the experience even that much better. I was beyond impressed with the prices as the food portions are great and the 2 for 20 lunch deal offered more than expected. Not only Greek but vegetarian items are available and everything is healthy!

This is a small little restaurant with amazing food. The service was excellent and everything came in a timely manner. I thought the food was delicious and the prices were good. I live in northern California and now I will come eat here everytime I visit my mom. I highly recommend this place for great authentic Greek food at excellent prices.

Home style Greek cooking. A delicious selection of vegan and conventional foods served by knowledgeable and friendly waiters. Portions are large. Sit back when the waiter ignites the saganaki. Its specular. Telephone orders for carry-out accepted. Free easy parking. Wheelchair accessible including bathrooms.

This place is really something special. The food is great and the service is even better. The server named Chris will sing any song you request on demand. He is amazing, great voice and good service. LAMB SHANKS!!!!

Have loved the food here for years. Terrific vegetarian options, and my husband loves the chicken. I have stopped making my own tabbouli as theirs is much better.
