" Charming little spot! The outdoor seating area is lovely. My friends and I enjoyed a nice evening meal with plenty of laughter and food. The menu has so many appealing options that it was hard to choose. The waitstaff was friendly and engaging. Although my kalamata olive dip was a bit too salty, the rest of the meal was delightful. I had the vegetarian moussaka, and it was top-notch. I’m eager to visit again soon for another round with a larger group! " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried last week and what really stood out to me was how delicious the food was! I ordered the shrimp souvlaki, which had so much flavor and perfect texture. The side salad was huge, and I ended up sharing it. The atmosphere was relaxing, perfect for dinner after a long busy day. The only downside was the 30-minute wait for our food, but you could tell that it was all freshly prepared. Definitely coming back for another meal soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm so disappointed after my last visit. I heard many good things, but my experience didn't reflect that. The fries were soggy, and the lamb was way overcooked, lacking flavor. Service was average, and I had to ask multiple times for refills. I really wanted to love this restaurant considering the reputation it has, but I left feeling dissatisfied and hungry. I might not be back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit and I'm thrilled to say the food did not disappoint! The falafel was crispy, and the side of hummus was delightful. However, the restaurant was freezing inside due to the air conditioning! I had to wear my sweater throughout the meal. The service was solid, but I felt a bit rushed at times. Overall, my experience was good, and I plan to give it another shot with warmer weather! Quality food is what matters! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for this place after reading the reviews, but my experience was underwhelming. The service started out great but became inattentive as the place got busier. My meal, while decent, didn't have the burst of flavor that I expected from a Greek restaurant. The chicken pita was fine, but I had much better elsewhere. The seating was comfortable, but again, I was left waiting for too long without attention. I might give it another chance on a less busy day. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been a fan of The Mad Greek for quite some time now. Their feta fries are out of this world! I enjoy the cozy yet vibrant atmosphere, making it perfect for a casual dine-in. The only complaint I have is that sometimes the staff appears to be overwhelmed during peak hours, leading to longer wait times for food. Nonetheless, the food quality and flavors are worth the wait. I can't resist coming here at least once a month! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is a cute little place with authentic Greek cuisine! Their spanakopita stole the show for me; crispy, flaky, and packed with flavor. I also enjoyed the fish special of the day, which was perfectly sautéed. Just a wee bit pricey for what I got overall, but considering the quality of the ingredients, I’m okay with that. I hope to be back soon with my family to share this hidden gem! " (*Curated Review*)
