Fast Causal Authentic Mediterranean Food Made From Scratch in Friendswood: The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill

We stopped by The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill recently, and let’s just say it completely exceeded expectations! This fast-casual spot is all about fresh, authentic Mediterranean flavors, with recipes passed down through generations.

What really sets The Great Greek apart is their commitment to quality. Everything is prepared in-house, from their hand-grated feta to their made-from-scratch dips. The ingredients are fresh, the flavors are clean, and you can taste the difference– it’s food that feels good to eat! 

We kicked things off with the Four Dip Combo, and honestly, it was tough to pick a favorite. Rotating between the hummus, baba ganoush, tzatziki, and spicy feta dip was the perfect complement to the meal. Although, the baba ganoush had a deeper, smokier flavor than we’ve had anywhere else!

When it comes to mains, the Great Greek Gyro is the star of the show. The gyro meat was perfectly seasoned and tender, with a flavor that hits! It’s what they’re known for, and rightfully so. We also loved the Falafel Pita for a solid vegetarian option, and the Feta Fries made the perfect side—crispy, salty, and loaded with crumbled feta. We couldn’t leave without trying dessert, and the Baklava Ice Cream was the ideal sweet finish.

The Great Greek delivers the quality of a sit-down restaurant with the speed and value of a fast-casual spot. It’s a place you can count on for fresh, healthy meals that don’t sacrifice flavor. And if you're planning an event or feeding a crowd, they also offer catering for large gatherings and family meals!
