The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill – North Las Vegas NV – Sometimes Great!

The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill is a casual fast growing chain of Greek Mediterranean restaurants in about 1/2 the country with around nine locations in Nevada. The NEW North Las Vegas Nevada location on Losee Road has a nice bright open dining room and also has patio dining for when the weather is nice.

They offer many Greek appetizers, salads, soup, wraps, entrees, desserts, children’s meals and soft beverages.

To start out we tried a 4 dip appetizer and my husband’s entree came with a small Greek salad.

They gave us a generous amount of warm flatbreads. They also gave us generous servings of tzatziki (yogurt cucumber dip), tirokafteri (feta roasted pepper dip), melitzanosalata (roasted eggplant dip), and hummus (chickpea tahini dip). All the dips are flavorful and very good! I think the hummus is unusually good. It’s rare that you go anywhere and get hummus that is this good.

I try the Greek rice bowl with Atlantic Salmon.

WOW! To my surprise the salmon is VERY GOOD! It’s fresh like from a better restaurant and was prepared medium-medium/rare like from a better restaurant with nice grill marks. The salad is also quite large, very fresh, and tasty. It’s over rice pilaf and the tzatziki sauce is very good.

My husband tried a grilled steak souvlaki entree platter with (slight up-charge) Greek lemon potatoes.

Everything is well flavored (especially the potatoes YUM!!) He likes it. For me the beef today is slightly chewy. (but I confess that I am not a beef person and I seldom eat beef)

The dips are very good and today the salmon was very above average. Everything was flavored nicely and all the food seemed very fresh. To me that’s Worth a Fork!

It was so good that we went back with the dogs on the dog friendly patio.

I had the Greek Rice bowl again with salmon again.

It looks the same but doesn’t taste the same…….Doesn’t taste like fresh salmon….Taste like from frozen supermarket salmon and includes the bloodline this time. It’s also well done this time.

My dogs don’t mind. The Giant Aussie enjoyed chickpeas and salmon

The Beagle-Mix enjoyed cucumber slices and salmon

They also got to try some of my husband’s Greek Rice Bowl with gyro.

Depending on your take this might have been better than the salmon? It was brought out cold and kinda dry though….But my dogs didn’t mind.

Next time I’ll try the chicken.

On another visit my husband had the Greek rice bowl again with gyro. The gyro is a bit better this time.

And I got the Greek rice bowl with chicken this time.

Some pieces are moist and some are slightly dry…..It doesn’t seem marinated like what I’m used to from Greek Restaurants but isn’t bad.

My dogs don’t mind helping me with this.
