Poor quality food not worth the high prices. Go elsewhere for lunch.

I usually get the chicken pita. Only the first couple times was it good. The past few times I've been here though, the meat has been overcooked, tough and chewy. As in one-hundred chews, tires out your jaw chewy. Big uncut chunks as well. I've had to spit out bone fragments on occasion in some pieces, which is awkward to do at a public restaurant.

On a past visit, I've also tried the steak kebab and it was tasteless and tough to point of being inedible. I sent that one back, explained it was too tough to eat, and asked for something else. They were ready to charge me for replacing it. They eventually did void it though afterward.

The pita bread is good. The soup is interesting. Fries are fries. Staff could be better trained in preparing and cooking the meat, and acknowledging customers.

A pita combo with fries and a drink is over $16. Too expensive for what they're serving. I've had enough. I won't be back.

Been wanting to try this place for a while. My husband and I love Greek City and Greek Village and this place had such high reviews. Finally tried it last night. It was decent, and nothing was wrong with the order. But overall, kind of bland. The gyro was pretty good, chicken pita was sort of chewy and flavorless and the mouse cake was pretty dry. Not terrible by any means, but.just meh

Great food and excellent service! The young lady who picks up the phone to take the orders, I wish I remembered her name, is lovely, polite, and helpful. I love their Greek bowls with the protein options. I will definitely order again.

$19 for a hard meet kabob? I ordered for home with Uber ears, requested soup as side with my kabob, and this is what I get. Disgusting meet, disgusting presentation and the soup? Lost! Will never order or eat here again.

Ordered pick up greek salad "no beats " extra potato salad and a gyro.
Salad loaded with BEATS and no extra potato salad. Just expect to get what I ordered and paid for guess that's to much to ask for anymore as well.

The smell of fresh baked bread is the first thing that hits you when you come in and then a nice welcoming hello from staff was a nice first impression. I ordered the combo chicken and beef skewers over pilaf and it was wonderful.

In the past it was really good however they have changed things. Went today at lunch and couldn't eat the Greek salad. Potato salad too sweet and a new dressing on salad too sweet.

I was in Tampa, my friend took me to Hungry Greek. I had the gyro (sorry forgot to take a picture, was hungry lol) was take out. Was very happy with the food and service! Will go back again, wish there had one in Daytona.

Calling this Greek is so far removed from reality it’s like calling a Chrysler / Dodge neon a Lamborghini. Not sure how they get away with this but be prepared to be dissatisfied and disappointed with the quality of the food.never mind the prices WOW….

Time and time again i’ve come to this place, and Never have I been dissatisfied. This location has great staff, and the food being made in front of you really lets the consumer know what’s being put in their food. 10/10.

Stopped in while in the area for a soccer game. Good food! We had veggie pitas, salads, fries, and falafel. Two thumbs up! Everything was good!

I love this place! They are always so friendly and have my food ready within 15 min after I call in my order. I have had their bowls, pitas, potato salad, and their soup! It's all phenomenal.

Some of the best Greek food around! I’ve had several different meals here and they have all been fantastic. I’ve started going about once a week since it’s close to my work. On top of that, the service is phenomenal. Always very friendly and helpful staff. I can’t recommend this place enough!

For some reason, after the first one that was amazing, every other time I order this it is made wrong. It’s never had cheese on it again. It’s missing stuff. Super weird, like they don’t know how to make it.

Definitely the best Greek food in Westchase! The gyros, spinach pies, and Greek salads are so good. The staff is super friendly. Restaurant is clean and nice and they have plenty of outdoor seating in a shady breezeway. I highly recommend this place!

Love this place, they serve very tasty food and are very efficient in preparing orders! I frequent this Hungry Greek location all the time, it does not disappoint! My absolute favorite meal from here is their Gyro Dinner and the lemon chicken super bowl.

Consistency matters and this location consistently delivers delicious food and professional team members. The bowls are a favorite in our household.

Lately the appearance of this place has been less appealing. The staff seldom clean up after customers eat. The walk way looks like an alley way with trash blowing everywhere. I would consider ordering there again however would not dine there.
