Lively neighborhood Greek spot near Green Lake with flavorful gyros, standout potatoes, and hearty portions; service can be slow and inconsistent, but value is strong.

Why it gets a B for overall quality

Mykonos Greek Grill delivers dependable neighborhood Greek dining with strong food quality anchored by standout gyros and lamb chops, supported by generous portions and solid value. However, inconsistent execution and notably slow service pacing prevent a higher grade, while pleasant Green Lake proximity adds appeal without making it a destination. Best suited for casual diners seeking hearty Mediterranean comfort rather than polished dining.

Restaurant Summary

Steps from Green Lake, this spot hums with takeout orders and a steady stream of dine-in regulars. Plates arrive piled high with soft pita, crisp-edged gyro meat, and those lemony potatoes people dream about, while servers keep things friendly if a bit stretched. One diner summed it up: "Portions were huge and the lamb chops were tender," capturing the cozy neighborhood energy and hearty comfort that define the room. The cooking leans classic Greek—dips like tzatziki and baba, lamb shank, souvlaki—with an emphasis on big flavors and portions rather than cheffy flourishes. Expect satisfying, produce-forward plates and a menu built for mixing sides; the salmon, lamb chops, and dip sampler win frequent praise, while occasional reports of slow pacing or a dry skewer pop up during rushes. If you crave straightforward Mediterranean comfort near the lake, this is that dependable choice. Families should do well here: kids can happily graze on warm pita, fries, rice, or chicken skewers, and there are several vegetarian options. Just note the hybrid service can mean waits at peak times, and there is no outdoor seating despite occasional assumptions. For a smooth visit, arrive early and order a dip sampler to keep everyone snacking.
