“Always a treat!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed June 5, 2011

If there is a better Gyro to be had in Omaha, I'd like to know where. Greek Islands has been a favorite for many years. The value is good as it is always more than I can finish (and I am a big guy). Even the Gyro sandwich alone is a meal and a snack.
Great food, friendly service, and reasonable prices; what more do you want?

“Great Gyros”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed April 22, 2011

I like gyros too much to ever try anything else on the menu in a Greek restaurant. Greek Islands didn't let me down at all. Huge portion, served hot and in less than 10 minutes. Service was prompt and friendly. I did try the Greek potatoes. Pretty good although two massive potatoes was overkill. We bought some baklava to go, made fresh on-site.

“Best Greek Food in Town!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 9, 2011

Our family has always loved eating here. It's a true family run restaurant where the owners are the cooks. Such a great atmosphere and the food is amazing!

“My favorite Greek restaurant ever”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 8, 2010

This is the best you can get for Greek food. The only downside I've ever experienced at greek islands is getting a bad server... That really sucks, and is rare, but the food is soooo delicious and the value is just right that it's okay even if you get a crappy server. I reccomend Everything! But my favorite is fish plakii on Friday nights.

“Opa!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 6, 2010

This place is GREAT! Don't let the outside fool you, there is wonderful greek food waiting for you on the inside. We have been there many times and everything we have tried has been terrific. When one of us gets the gyro platter, we are reminded that it is so much food we wished we had shared. The kids like the spectacle of the "firey cheese."
