Greek Isles

Always great and never disappoints. Me and my family have been eating there twice a month for almost a decade.

We’ve been here three times over the past few years when we are in the Liberty Township area. They still have the best gyros in the greater Cincinnati area — and I have tried a lot of gyros in a lot of restaurants.
I have also had the Hercules burger In the past, which was perhaps the best burger I ever had.
Real Greek food in a diner setting.

Love this place! Best gyros around. I have been going here for many years and the food is always great. I get the Gyro and fries. I haven’t tried anything else because I like my usual so much. I love the seasoning on the fries but my husband does complain that they put to much on. So if you order the fries, you may want to ask for light seasoning or ask for it on the side and put as much/​little as you want. My kids (5 and 3) love it too. We get the a side of gyro meat, pita and taziki sause to share and they love making there own «mini gyro». Only downside is sometimes the food takes a bit to long, but that is maybe 1 out of every 10 times.

We honestly have never had a bad meal here. We love the spanakopita and the gyros. The staff is always friendly even when they are super busy. Highly recommended.

My family and I have eaten here a few times since moving here. Love the food and the owner makes you feel at home.

I have only had take out from them so can’t speak to dining in. However everything I have eaten has been wonderful! I was pleasantly surprised as it is in middle America in a little strip mall but is authentic as the Greek food I used to eat in boston. It is very well priced too!

Walking into this place I didn’t know what to expect. I’ve had friends give it a poor recommendation. The decoration is over the top. Like a real life «My Big Fat Greek Wedding.» Blue and white everywhere. But very wonderful to see family photos everywhere. This is certainly a family business.
The food was good.
I’ve been to Greece. The lamb roasting on the spit was very wonderful to see. This reminded me of street food I got in the Athens plaka district. Everything was yummy.
I got a gyro combo with baklava for dessert. Woah doggy was that way too much food. The servings here are large. Fries had a season I liked but I could see it being a bit much for some. The gyro is authentic not this pre packaged lamb strips you often see. The Greek salad is very rustic. Large hopped veggies with a homemade dressing.
My server was the only one working. She was pleasant and very attentive. Good customer service.
Overall I liked this place. The baklava was ok. I am biased though. Grecian delight in middletown has the best baklava in the world.

This was the beginning to my weekend of terrible decisions.
I found the food to be AWFUL. I had a craving for Greek food, so of course, went to Unilocal to find something good and close to home.
We walked in and found a huge menu on the wall. I hate standing there and staring at those, so I grabbed a menu and went to a table. The menu and table were both incredibly sticky/​greasy. Ew. The décor leaves A LOT to be desired. The entire place is blue and white, has fake plants everywhere, and is really kitchy — not in a good/​cute way either.
I wanted spanakopita, and the hubby wanted tiropita, and since they are cheap, we got both. He ordered the rice pilaf with spicy sausage, and I got the gyro combo. I got a water, and hubby got a Greek beer called Mythos.
The first water cup I received was dirty. They use disposable plastic cups — seems like a waste of plastic to me, but whatevs. First up are the spanakopita and tiropita. The tiropita didn’t have any flavor — it tasted like dry puff pastry. The spanakopita tasted like… dill/​lemon dry puff pastry. I couldn’t taste the spinach at all! Seriously, Kroger’s Private Selection spanakopita is MUCH better.
Part of my combo was a Greek salad. Someone attempted to cut up the lettuce, but it was either HUGE pieces, or tiny ones… not sure what was going on with that. The feta cheese tasted really… dried out. The tomato and cucumber were fresh and tasty. I was sad to have only gotten 2 kalamata olives. 2! The salad dressing was the best part of this entire experience.
Next up, our main courses… The hubby’s pilaf/​sausage looked like something you’d get at a terrible buffet *cough, Golden Corral, cough*. He said the rice was alright, and the sausage was very spicy. Overall, he said he ate it because he ordered it, but that he wouldn’t eat it again.
Ok, so I got my gyro and fries — thought this would make up for it all, but I was wrong. The fries had a TON of really salty seasoning on them. It was overkill. I picked a piece of the meat out of the gyro to try before picking up the whole thing and shoving it into my starving mouth. Glad I did, the texture/​flavor/​everything was off. I couldn’t taste the meat past whatever herbs/​spices in the meat. The texture reminded me of chicken fat. I couldn’t eat it.
I am sitting there, debating whether or not I want to say anything, and I decide I do. I don’t often say anything because I am terrible with confrontation. I went up and told the guy at the counter what I thought. He, a part owner, was shocked. Apparently I was the first person in their 9 years of business to say anything bad about their food to him. He refunded my meal since I had hardly picked at it.
I bussed our table, because that’s what you do here, and went to the bathroom to wash my hands. Incredibly dirty bathroom and no hand soap.
/​sigh.
So, the customer service was good… but the everything else was awful.
I will not return.

Love the food, customer service & owners /​employees. I eat here several times a month. Gyro & Greek salad are the best!

They actually have authentic Greek dishes such as my favorite, pastichio. Friendly staff and great food!

So delicious! We had the gyro combo for lunch. It comes with a gyro, greek salad and fries. Had the baklava for dessert and it was perfect. Will definitely be back!

Absolutely one of the best places to eat in the area. Great food, the owner is so pleasant to everyone who walks in the door, and the service is quick! I love this restaurant. I wish they had more locations throughout Cincinnati. A hidden gem indeed!

The hummus and gyro taste good, but the Monday dinner special was practically inedible and way overpriced.

Food is delicious, people are very friendly. Atmosphere is casual. However I have to give it 2 stars because the people preparing the food need to WEAR GLOVES! These are also the same people taking the money. The dining area is representative of cleanliness but that does not filter into making the food. Please, invest in disposable gloves and start wearing them! Needless to say that I won’t be back until this happens.

We went here for lunch and it was terrific! The owner is very open and warm with customers — a welcome touch. The food is marvelous — fresh and tasty. You MUST have the hummus and Greek chips — a great way to start. The Greek Pizza was delicious as were the rice dishes with chicken. I had the gyro plate and it was a quite generous serving, with a green salad that was ample, fresh and quite good.
This is casual dining at its best — do not expect a white table cloth experience but enjoy the food — well done!

Our family loves this place and staff. The best Greek food in town. We have had everything on the menu and they are all excellent.

They serve a good gyro. The ambiance is a little cheesy, but if you want a low-​key place to have a good meal, this fits the bill.

If you enjoy Greek food, various authentic dishes, you really need to come here. The first time I came here I chatted with the owner for nearly an hour. The owner really enjoys what he does, in fact after he almost closed the kitchen a few people came in and he opened it up just for them. Fantastic food, a kind and generous owner, this has become one of my favorite places.

My boyfriend had a Chicken gyro that I can’t pronounce. And I had a regular gyro. We got an appetizer and combos. If you get an appetizer no need for a combo. Combo’s came with side salad and Greek fries. Sit down or to go kinda place. Excellent! Definitely going back!

Order the Greek Chips with Loukaniko!
