Best WLM Reviews
First time at our new find. Almost authentic Greek food. We tried the club deckers in grilled chicken and the split pea soup. Both items were light and flavourful. Customer service was good. The menu offers a lot more which we would try next time for sure. All in all a good find, we enjoyed our palate.
We usually get breakfast, and it's been excellent every time... my mom raves about the lamb and salad.. this time was a fail for me...I saw others eat the same meal I ordered, with gusto, but mine was woefully undercooked and felt mushy and slimey so I'd say avoid the grouper oscar... it's not grouper (as we know it). Stick to authentic dishes that look and smell amazing... our neighboring table enjoyed a few of these (country chicken?)... meals include soup or salad and a choice of light dessert... (the rice pudding is a favorite)
Perfect little diner. Lots of menu choices and the food was great for a decent price. Service was awesome and very quick. Will definitely be back!
Almost A True Greek Restaurant!
I say 'Almost' only because they do not have gyro meat that they cut off of a spit which was a total surprise, but the rest of the food we've had there has been very good. On our first visit I had the Gyro Plate with a baked potato side. Entrees here include a soup AND a salad AND a desert - what a surprise. I opted for the Egg Drop Soup. The soup was one of the best I've had. Not as thick and eggy as many oriental restaurants, with large pieces of green pepper in it - very tasty. I then had a side Greek salad which I really enjoyed. Crisp lettuce, topped with cucumber, olives, feta cheese crumbles and onions, dressed with creamy Greek dressing. My gyro plate came out with a very tasty and soft pita with a plentiful amount of gyro meat topped with shredded lettuce, diced tomato and onion accompanied by a container of wonderful tzatziki cucumber sauce. The gyro meat was cut fairly thin and probably heated on the flat top. It lacked the good garlicky, lamb and beef flavor that I was hoping for, but I ate it. I think my baked potato had been baked much earlier in the day as it was a bit dry and not very warm. Sour cream and butter accompanied the potato. My wife had the Large Greek Salad With Gyro Meat. A good amount of crisp lettuce topped with cucumber, olives, onions, feta cheese, quite a bit of the somewhat flavorless imposter gyro meat, warm and tasty pita bread triangles and a bowl of greek dressing. The salad plate also included one tasty Dolmades, which is a stuffed, rolled grape leaf. The gyro meat was the downfall of this otherwise tasty plate. As my entree also included desert, I opted for rice pudding which was good, just not spectacular. On our second visit, I selected the Full Order of Biscuits and Gravy ($7.99) and my wife had the Athenian Omelet ($10.95). My B & G was two split fluffy biscuits covered with sausage gravy. The gravy did have a decent amount of sausage in it and I felt the flavor was ok, better than many others, but not as good as a few. My wife's omelet included tomato, green pepper, onions, and the 'fake' gyro meat with a side of tzatziki sauce. Included hash browns were nice and crispy and the buttered rye toast was good. My wife said the omelet is probably the best place to use that gyro meat. We were there around 10:30 in the morning and they were very busy. We saw many good looking dishes coming out to the diners. Their prices are very fair, portions are large and service is good. We will return to try some other menu items as it is close to where we live.
We have been a few times a year because we have family living in N Ft Myers. They have a large menu. So everyone can find what they want. Everything I've tried has been good some great. Our waitress was attentive and friendly. We'll continue to go there.
Great food at a great value! They have authentic Greek food as well as many other dishes. There's something for everyone! The staff are also very friendly. I will continue to support this local family-owned business as a regular patron. I've never been disappointed here.
Cheryl did an excellent job of waiting on us. Food was brought out hot instead of waiting on under the lights. My wife, especially enjoyed her vegetarian omelette. If you’re looking for a restaurant that you can actually speak to the person next to you without yelling this is the one.
Great diner food with a large selection. There is something on their menu for everyone.
This place is locally owned and operated by the friendly, hard working owners and staff.
