Grecian Delight

One of the absolute best Greek restaurants in the area! The staff is so warm and friendly, and the food will make you want to come back. I had the Greek Burger and it was perfectly cooked, the tzatziki sauce was the most proper topping for the burger. My friend had the classic gyro and salad combo meal, and was stuffed before fighting to finish his meal. GREAT prices, and will DEFINITELY be back to one of my new favorite mom n pop restaurants!

Guy who took our order was friendly and down to earth. Food was solid for Greek Food in Monroe OH.

The food was good and well priced. The balaclava was very very good and the best part but overall worth the drive

My favorite Greek restaurant anywhere. Family owned which is awesome. Fresh foods. Awesome daily specials. Love all the homemade foods. I have been eating here for over a decade.

Best Greek food around period. I used to work nearby and would stop by for lunch at least once a week. The food is always great and the desserts are awesome. If you want a gyro then look no further.

This restaurant is a low-​cost Greek restaurant serving very tasty food. The best quality of this restaurant is the owner Maria. She makes you feel like you are being served a home cooked meal. Her hospitality is the best bar none. I usually get a chicken teriyaki sandwich which has plenty of chicken and his grilled with the marinade that makes the chicken absolutely delicious. Another one of my favorites is their Monday special which is pastitcio. Pastitcio is Greek lasagna with spicy ground beef and a egg custard-​like binder. Very good.

Fantastic Greek restaurant owned and operated by a delightful family. Little out of the way, near Burns Nursery on Cin Day north of 63.
Had the special today, grilled chicken with manestra. The Greek salad with gyro meat is outstanding. Must try the homemade Baklava, the best!
Stop in if your in the area you will not be disappointed.

Friendly, clean and delicious. I like to go there on Tuesdays for their chicken special. Haven’t had anything that I wouldn’t consider excellent. A little hard to find and you can’t turn in to their lot from south bound Cincinnati-​Dayton Road.

Great food and super friendly owner, Maria is the best and you can’t get a better chicken sandwich anywhere.

Love this place! Check out the daily specials. Get the baklava, when they have it! (It usually runs out quickly)

Delicious food and friendly service… who could ask for more! The daily specials are fantastic and their house salad dressing is also great.

Also known as Greasy Delight. Don’t consider it a greek restaurant, just a place that caters to it’s surrounding bland pallets. Veggie options include greasy vegetables. I would give them four stars if they just added falafel.

Delicious Greek food. Great option for lunch or dinner in the area. Nothing pretentious, just great food at a very reasonable price. The Pork souvlaki sandwich is one of my favorite things on the menu. They also have great salad and spanakopita.

Wonderful place! Food is great and always a very happy atmosphere inside! Would recommend to anyone.

This is a very small simple place. served on styrofoam plates and plastic utensils. so not fancy or elegant but sorta homey feeling. we like the gyros either lamb or chicken, greece salads. It has kind of a family vibe. they are very friendly. need to try some new things there

The staff is always friendly and accommodating. I love their food, which is obviously made with love. I think it is a bit pricey for the portion size; however, I love it enough to pay the extra. I wish they were in a more convenient location, as I would be here every week if they were. Alas, I only am able to eat there about twice a year.

Passing by and stopped for lunch since Grecian has such good Unilocal reviews. I was quite disappointed. The food is not bad, but is sure is nothing special and not deserving of the rating…
So for me is was no Delight. Just a regular American sandwich place. Thick sub like buns, Styrofoam plates, plastic utensils. There is a gyro sandwich, but really not all that much of a Greek experience.

I had an urn-​ing for Greek food today, especially for Stuffed Grape Leaves.
Back in Philadelphia, I could stop almost anywhere and find a Greek kiosk or restaurant. I could get stuffed grape leaves almost any time I wanted – some were fresh, some were fresh from a can – which is not that fresh.
When I moved to Florida, it was tough to find Greek places, though Mediterranean restaurants were almost always serving Greek food. I used to go to the health food store for stuffed grape leaves, also apparently from a can.
Today, I found this dear restaurant hiding in a hard to reach cubbyhole along Cin-​Day Road. Now, the last time I went to a Greek place, I found that I could order a Gyro and Baklava – that’s quite a Greek selection.
So, as the owner and I were discussing stuffed grape leaves, I found that they have Souvlaki. It was one of Tuesday’s specials. It reminded me of a place on Philadelphia’s South Street where they did carry out and the amazing smell would be radiated for blocks. Then, I saw that yesterday’s special was Pastichio, and my heart dropped. Okay, most of you might not care for Lasagne, so you might not care for Pastichio, which is as close to Lasagne as you’ll get in a Greek restaurant.
So, Maria said «I still have some left.» I got the feeling that she would have made some just then, to cheer me up. I added Lentil Soup and a drink to my order and it came somewhere under $ 11.00. Considering this was basically home-​made food, I think it’s not nearly as expensive as going to a place that pulls everything out of a can.
The last time I had Pastichio was in Tarpon Springs, Florida where they had a Greek community and a lot of divers looking for real, live sponges. The Pastichio was okay, but a bit tourist-​worthy. Ms. Maria put taste in hers and that made all the difference. Meats, cheeses, and taste – Oh, my!
The dinner included bread and butter and fresh green beans – no cans necessary. The Lentil Soup had as much taste as any Lentil Soup, which isn’t that much. I sometimes fix it up at home with a little Sofrito or Tom Yum base, but nothing of the sort available today.
I was pleased to find such a good restaurant, hidden as it is, with such a charming host and good food. Forget Olive Garden – go to Grecian Delight and Urn yourself a happy tummy!

Upon first glance, you’d miss this little gem hidden in a strip mall along Cin-​Day road just up the road from Monroe. And by the looks of the place, most wouldn’t consider going inside but what a mistake that would be. The food is awesome and authentic. The staff is friendly and work hard to get it right. Whether take-​out or dine-​in, it is a great and different food experience… which is a breath of fresh air in the world of fast-​food and chain restaurants. Maria is almost always on-​site is so friendly to everyone.
My personal favorite is the Greek Salad with Chicken. Outstanding.

Darling Greek restaurant recommended by a coworker who had been in Middletown before. I was in from out of town.
The Greek salad with chicken is filling, and the chicken is really flavorful.
They have many options, sandwiches, salads, platters, soups. The menu is long. My coworkers ate the chicken special of the day which was served with orzo (similar to rice) and lots of sauces, plus salad and pita bread.
We also ended up staying long at our table and so the sweet owner (Maria)brought us desserts to sample. Rice pudding with cinnamon (so good! I slurped it up) followed by a sweet/​fried pita dessert that reminded me of funnel cake — she topped it with rosewater and powdered sugar.
The owner and her son run the restaurant. They were friendly as could be and eager to tell us their story.
A small and independent restaurant in what seemed like the sea of chain restaurants in Middletown. Do yourself a far by trying out this place. Really nice service, great prices, very tasty food.
