" I recently hosted a small birthday party here and loved every moment. We ordered a mix of appetizers and main courses to share. The dolmas were outstanding, and the roasted lamb got rave reviews from everyone. The service was okay, though we felt a bit rushed towards the end of our meal since the place was getting crowded. Nevertheless, the ambiance with live music really set the mood for celebration! " (*Curated Review*)

" An unexpected gem! I stumbled upon The Great Greek while exploring Ventura Blvd. The restaurant wasn’t too busy at lunchtime, which was nice. I ordered a vegetarian platter, which was huge! The variety of dips and salads was impressive. However, I felt the hummus could be improved; it had a bit of an unusual taste. Overall, the food was fresh, and the service was quick. I’ll be back to try their lamb dish next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" The Great Greek is a delightful experience! We had a big family celebration and the service stood out—very attentive and friendly. The food was a mix of hits and misses. While I loved the grilled octopus and moussaka, the dolmas didn’t quite measure up. Nonetheless, the ambiance made up for it with its lively atmosphere. I would recommend this restaurant for family gatherings. " (*Curated Review*)

" Attended a friend's birthday party here recently. The restaurant has a lively atmosphere and friendly staff. The appetizers were superb, especially the flaming cheese! The main courses were decent but not memorable. The live music added a festive touch, making it a fun place to celebrate. I’d come back for special occasions. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great Greek food with a fun atmosphere! The staff is friendly and attentive. We loved the meze plates and the flaming cheese was divine! There were definitely some hits and misses with the entrees, but overall a solid experience. Perfect for a casual night out with friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner with my wife here. We ordered a variety of dishes to share. Everything was delicious, especially the dolma and spanakopita! Our waiter was very knowledgeable and offered suggestions. The only downside was the pricing; it felt just a bit higher than we anticipated. Otherwise, a lovely evening with authentic Greek flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a disappointing experience at The Great Greek. I ordered a lamb dish which lacked flavor and was tough. The dessert was the highlight of the meal, but unfortunately, everything else fell short. The staff were polite, but I felt they didn’t engage much. I think it was an off night, but I’m not rushing back for a second chance. " (*Curated Review*)
