What our guests are saying
My first time here and I was impressed with how nice and friendly the lady at the counter was. She gave me potatoes to try and lamb. It was quick, and the food was amazing. I got a small plate with 2 types of chicken, tiny bit of lamb to try, orzo, green beans. Flavor was popping, food was warm and plenty 😋 it was all in one container so it didnt look very artsy but it tasted sooo good that I ate all of it and it was def 2 or 3 serving size for someone my size. 😆 and the bread that came with was amazing, smelled and tasted fresh. Outside was crispy ish yet soft and inside very fluffy. My only one issue was that green beans was very oily. But I still ate it all. Overall- will def go back, and may bring my friends. Def will bring family. They have so many chicken, lamb, turkey varieties for those who dont want pork or beef all the time. It was just me and a friend so we sat in their tiny table but I will say this is take out place. Not a lot of space to sit and eat. It gets busy too, but they are extremely quick with service.

Greek Deli & Catering is such a charming spot! The food is fresh, flavorful, and authentically Greek, with generous portions. The space feels cozy and welcoming, and the staff are friendly and attentive. Definitely a place I’d return to for a casual, chic meal.

This is by far the most authentic Greek food I’ve had in DC. Tastes like something my grandparents would make, authentic flavors, I’m really impressed. It’s so hard to find casual and good quality Greek food here, and I feel like I’ve just found a gem! I got a plate with rice, lamb and okra. Delicious and again I can’t say enough, authentic as it can get.

Surrounded by many other restaurants, don't overlook this tiny Greek fast-casual restaurant with a large menu of all the usual Greek fixings. I ordered their traditional gyro and it was the perfect amount of food and quite tasty. Since they don't give cups of water, I bought two bottles of water. My bill came to over $21. They also have a small fridge area with other goods and drinks. Inside is one table that sits two.
