Reviews for Georges Greek Cafe

Ratings_icons The Best Greek Food in California

I simply love Greek cuisine. I have eaten it from both coasts and many places in between. George's is my favorite! I order what I fondly call the appetizer dinner. I get a few different appetizers including the fried feta cheese, and the feta cheese with spinach. I get a side order of their lamb chops in which the meat melts from the bone! They have a delicious white wine I fondly call "naked" lady white because there are naked ladies dancing on the label. I get a small Greek Salad and there is enough food to feed 2 to 3 people! I end my dinner with sweet Greek coffee and some of George's wife's delicious hand made desserts! The cookies are simply scrumptious. If George is slow and you ask him, he will read your coffee grounds! He is very accurate and sweet! Tell him you were referred by Rebecca!

My friend and I discovered this place when we left a Spin certification class across the street at Gold's Gym and were absolutely ravenous! We were planning on simply grabbing something to eat for the ride home, but after being taken under the wing of the owner right there on the sidewalk and treated like a member of his family, we made the decision to sit and enjoy the atmosphere for a bit longer. And even sweat-drenched and in our gym clothes, they welcomed us whole-heartedly. The rest of the staff, from the waitress to the cook to the busboy, were all as warm and friendly as George. And the food was delicious! If we're ever back in Long Beach, I will re-arrange my schedule and drive out of my way to eat here again! I hope the people who live so close to George's know how lucky they are!

Took my sister to George's yesterday (I've been there many times), but it was her first experience. She like the food and the friendly staff. From my perspective, the new location on Pine is so much better - more room, nice and relaxing patio, and more servers to handle the crowds.

My friends and I visited here before a trip to Greece and the waiter wrote down trip suggestions for us! Try: souflaki, vegetarian plate, hummus, baba ghanouj.

The food at George's is the best Greek food around. It's as close as you can get to Grease, without the airfare. The Friday night special of slow cooked lamb and it is excellent as is their stuffed salmon. If you're lucky you'll get papa George to greet you at the door (cute little old man who greets everyone with a hug).
