Spiro’s Pasadena Produce & Deli

I had a pretty good Greek Quiche in the dining room. I like that they have a diverse selection of vegetables and deli meats. Dining room wasn’t super clean though.

Awesome deli. I cant understand any bad reviews unless people were expecting a gourmet 5 star type restaurant. Its a deli! The gyro, Italian sub, eggplant parm, souvlaki, chicken salad and more are outstanding. Hoegarden Belgian beer for $ 3! Crazy… Also great bakery goods (try the cannoli) and produce and breads. Most locals treasure it, it is the go too quality but affordable choice. We are really lucky to have it! Only negative i know of is that the hot coffee isn’t so good but I’ll trade that for $ 3 Belgian beer and delicious and affordable deli food anyday. Its a deli people! And a fine one.

A well deserved one star. The hot food was cold and the cold food was warm. The service wasn’t rude and not all of the food was crap, but that’s a pretty freak’n low bar to set for where to eat.

Been here twice with a friend that brought me here. First time I ordered a Giro to go. When I got to our place come to find out that the Giro was made with chicken. OOOOppss I was under the understanding that it was made with Lamb. So I call a real friend who is a chef to ask if I was correct not to say that I been all over the Mediterranean an visit Greece. He ask me why I was asking… so I explained… his comment I have heard of that place, they will feed you what ever… lollol. Oh well. So it happens that my friend when back I din’t an brought me back a Giro… Grrrrrr this time it was made of steak it look like the fine steak from Publix that comes in a box. What a nasty place to eat. It seems… well I keep my mouth shut. I strongly suggest not eating there. The market side is OK. The restaurant I stay away. Who knows if next time is dog meat.

It was a little dirty. Flies and trash on the floor. I was disappointed.

Today I went to the Deli… and the Chef had made a garlic soup… because of so much illness going around… Seriously??? That is compassion… and comfort. It was amazing soup… Try to find that in Corporate Chains… you won’t… Thank you so much!!!

I just stumbled upon this produce/​deli market and I’m really glad I did. It’s small inside but everything looks really fresh. They have some amazing looking baked goods. The produce, again comes in a small selection, is priced so much better than the supermarket. I got maybe 20 peeled cloves of garlic for a BUCK. You can’t beat that. and the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. They also have some shelf stable Greek type grocery items like grape leaves, olives, vinegars, and even local raw honey!

Great desserts. Quality produce. Hard to find items of the Mediterranean cuisine. Great friendly service. Good prices. Always super clean.
Only drawback… such a small selection.
