Mad Greek

Great place to grab a quick bite to eat. Good food at a good price. Service was very fast and polite.

Ordered fish and smelt mega platters, which come with fries and a small Greek Salad. Past visits have shown this a good bet. But not this trip. The cooking oil needed to be changed. Our fried entrees arrived darker brown than usual and left an unpleasant aftertaste. The Greek salads were featureless; no Feta, one lonely, black olive and some red onions atop a small pile of green ruffage and a small salad pepper. Its dressing was pedestrian and also served as a dipping sauce for the lightly-breaded smelts, which were chewy and tasted a bit fishy. The sauce didn't elevate them. Service was initially slow but the kitchen was quick. Portions were generous. The fresh-cut fries are a wonderful plus. My snapper filet was nice. It deserved fresher fry oil. On a good day, Mad Greek can make a tummy smile, but not today. Next time, I'll stick with meat.

I have eaten here a few times. The food is delicious and the service is friendly and efficient. They have a large menu with lots of choices. Will definitely eat here again!

We have frequented the Mad Greek many times over the years. This restaurant is great. The menu is loaded with delicious everything. I have never had anything but very well prepared offerings. The service is always friendly and efficient. The building is clean and has ample space for private conservation. Oh did I mention everything they prepare and serve here is delicious. Our food is always on time and always temperature perfect.

Tied for best gyro in town, wins the race with dessert.

It is my opinion that The Mad Greek is tied with Gyro Express on Morse Road for the best Gyros in Columbus. They're not the same, they're both excellent for difference reasons. Mad Greek's gyro comes in two sizes and has plenty of meat and veggies with a perfectly season gyro meat. The tzatziki sauce is nearly perfect too. It's just the right flavor and just the right consistency. Also they have dark proper Greek fries and proper malt vinegar at The Mad Greek.

When I'm in the mood for Gyros I'm town on which end of town I'm driving to since both of my favorites are reasonably far from my home, and I make the decision around dessert since it's a stalemate in my opinion in terms of gyro quality. If I want Baklava I got to Gyro Express, their Baklava is unmatched. If I want delightful fruit creme cake I go to The Mad Greek. Mad Greek also has a much more robust selection of proper Greek sides of the two.

10/10 I've been to The Mad Greek dozens of times over the years and will go many more. Gyro & fries is highly recommended, strawberry creme 3-layer cake is mandatory.
