Greek Corner Restaurant, Cambridge

Greek Corner Restaurant Named "Best of Boston" by Boston Magazine in 2006 and 2008, Greek Corner Restaurant can attribute its success to one simple idea: authenticity. From the savory beef and lamb gyros shaved off of twirling spits to the homemade smoked sausages, everything here is as classically Mediterranean as the white and blue seascapes depicted in its vibrant wall murals. The Boretos brothers have been at it for more than 20 years, and their experience is underscored by their unbridled passion for quality. Charcoal-grilled meats, swordfish kebabs, and vegetarian spinach pies all deliver a satisfying payoff. Boston Magazine painted a broad stroke over the menu, hailing the “flavor-packed dishes,” that are “as generously portioned as they are scrumptious.” Even _Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives_ host Guy Fieri paraded his camera crew through the doors to highlight the spit-roasted lamb as it twirled with all the grace and persistence of a ballerina stuck in a time loop.
