Reviews The Greek Corner

Awesome Greek Food!. My party of four dined at the Greek Corner Friday night. I can honestly say that it was the best meal we had in Orlando while there for the week. We dined on the Lemon Oregano Lamb Chops, the Lamb Kebob, the Moussaka, and the Mediterranean Stuffed Chicken. Here's what I thought of the food from both a visual and gastronomic inspection of all dishes: while the chops were small, there are six on the plate which was more than enough. It's a lot of work to get the meat off the bones, but it's worth it because they were cooked to perfection and tasted great. The kebob was likewise cooked perfectly and was delicious. Both lamb dishes were trimmed to remove excess fat but just enough was left on the meat to add to the great flavor. The stuffed chicken breast was HUGE! The taste was excellent as evidenced by my wife eating the entire thing even though it was way more food than she normally eats. Finally, the Moussaka was unbelievable. The meat had just the right mix of clove and cinnamon added to it to make me wish I could have had it a "second meal" (do they do that in Greece?). In addition to the four main courses, we also had Greek salads to start (very decent salad) and we split a couple of Baklava's. These were a perfect mix of nuts, honey, and filo dough. Really good. Why this place has not been on Diners Drive-ins and Dives is a mystery!

The Greek corner table Nazi would not allow us to sit at a table for six when we had a party for. Very rude of the owners son to do so on my father-in-law's birthday.

As good as Yia Yia's Cookin'!. My mother and her whole side of the family are "Straight off the Boat" Greek and I mean that in the most endearing way possible! Greek cuisine is my favorite cuisine and I am very particular about the standard that I hold "Good Greek Food" to. The Greek Corner is the best place that I have found outside of Greece itself, other than in Tarpon Springs of course, which is close to where I grew up in Clearwater, FL. Needless the say, I frequent Greek Corner regularly and I love everything from the food and outside seating to the family atmosphere..OPA!

First time visiting the Greek Corner. It's no wonder I've never seen this place. It's almost hidden from everything! It's located off of I-4 near the Princeton exit (on N. Orange Avenue).

This restaurant is tucked away literally on a corner (hence the name, "Greek Corner?"). Charming!

Nearby is a nice body of water with downtown Orlando serving as a backdrop.

If it hadn't been raining, then I would've eaten outside to enjoy the view. But alas, the weather is never docile in Orlando.

So I go inside, and order. The first thing that I notice is this quaint, little interior with a huge Greek soldier (statue) standing by the entrance. The interior is exactly what I've always pictured a stereotypical 'taverna' to look like. In short, I was instantly in love with the interior.

As for the food...

I ordered from their 'Greek Dinner Specialties.' I got myself the "Lamb Kebob" (with a side of rice pilaf). My reasoning here is: lamb is one of the favorite Greek meats (and mine too). Preparing lamb well is a great overall indicator of a Greek restaurant's quality. I also had the choice between a soup or a salad. I opted for the salad, but I am not a big fan of soups or salads.

The salad came out. It looked nice, I suppose. It your standard lettuce, cucumber, tomato accompanied with olives and feta cheese. I only ate a few bites out of it. Nothing special.

When I got my Lamb Kebob, I was immediately enamored with the visuals. The lamb looked quite appetizing (as it was impaled upon a stick along with some onions). There were also some orange slices next to this huge bed of yellow rice pilaf.

The lamb was fantastic to say the least. I always order my meats cooked on 'Medium' so that I can enjoy some of the natural flavoring of the red meat. It was cooked just right. Very flavorful. It wasn't quite as terrific as the lamb from the Greek Flame Taverna, but it was still fantastic.

The large amounts of yellow rice pilaf was amazing from the viewpoint that I love rice! (especially rice pilaf) Out of all the Greek restaurants I've been to, I would say that the Greek Corner has the best-tasting rice in all of Orlando and Longwood. I know that rice pilaf is only a side order, but when you combine it with the more hearty/robust flavoring of the lamb, then you're in for a great combination of two, distinct levels of taste (which go great together). The rice is very zesty, almost sweet...it seems to have a hint of something sweet in it. I don't know what it is, but it's amazing!

I usually sample every Greek restaurant's pita bread to compare each other, but I chose not to order any. I'm trying to cut back on my white bread intake (due to health reasons), but I intend to snack on some next time.

Based upon a first-time visit, I have to say this is one of my favorite Greek restaurants (along with Greek Flame Taverna and Mykonos). The charming interior of a taverna plus the Lamb Kebob gave me an excellent first impression. Top marks to this place!

I've lived in Orlando for 12 yes and just found this place. I love the outdoor dining and the food is great. Great Greek potatoes and lb kebabs!

Great atmosphere and authentic food. Opa!

Amazing authentic place. Go and give it a try its truly amazing experience. We go there to order appetizer platter(which has just price o appetizer but truly that the mix of really great entrees) and salad. Everything delicious, and the size is enough to take leftovers for 2 people for lunch next day.

Had my GYRO fix today!. Best place in College Park for me. Nice sized portions and good food. Weather is just right to sit outside. 5* from this picky eater!

Best Baklavah. On top of everything I've eaten there being wonderful, great service, and cute atmosphere they also have the best Baklavah I think I have ever had. Made fresh every day :)

Love this place!. Our monthly dinner of friends had a blast at the Greek Corner. They really know how to take care of guests, especially larger parties, and the menu is extensive enough that you can find something for everyone. We had such a good time that we've often gone back for birthdays and other occasions and the service makes it worthwhile.

We started off with the spinach artichoke dip. This was a very unique take on this dish. Any place else I’ve had it, it’s usually chunky, but this was completely smooth as if it had been through the blender. It had a lemon-garlic taste to it more than spi

So good!!! Went 2 days in a row! First I got the moussaka and the potatoes ( they were ok but not great) Next day got the greek gyros . They took me back to Athens ♥️

The food in this place is amazing! Large dice of flavorful dishes at great price and friendly service. Totally worth to try and return.

This Greek restaurant is a neighborhood staple. Occupying a corner across from Lake Ivanhoe makes for excellent patio dining. The food here is traditional Greek so the typical fare such as lamb, moussaka, souvlakis, gyros, avgo lemono soup, etc….not to forget they so do carry Greek Mythos beer.

Very good, but would be a whole lot better if the chicken was cut into smaller pieces

Very pleasant place, good service, great food! Will be back again!
