Greek House Cafe

Oh my goodness, it was as if a Greek family has invited me into their home and cooked mouth-watering food for me.

Servers were friendly and often checked upon us to see if everything was to our liking and if we needed anything. Everyone was generous and genuinely friendly. The hummus is homemade and is absolutely delicious. The toasted pita bread was almost immediately consumed by our party as we dove into the hummus.

The chicken breast kabobs were tender, juicy, and well-seasoned. The gyro was equally just as tender, juicy, and flavorful. Every item we tasted was solid and we had no complaint.

There is also an outdoor patio. Indoors, shutters draped with vines and grapes lined the wall to offer a brief escape from Simi Valley. The space was clean. The women's restroom was immaculate. Often, I find changing tables at restaurants to be neglected but I felt at ease using it for my infant because it was spotless.

Overall, I am impressed and glad we stumbled upon this restaurant while craving Mediterranean food. Great ambiance, immaculate, delicious food, and the friendliest service!

Food was very good. Pretty traditional. Hidden gem in Simi Valley.

We went on a busy Friday evening. Service was okay.

Menu could use a revamp. It lists all of their dishes, even has some kid options, but does not have any explanation of what the dish is or even an ingredient list.

The lamb gyro plate with green beans was my favorite. The avgolemono was really thick and salty.

Now, I've been coming here for over 10 years (since I was 14, I'm 28 now). I've never been disappointed by their food, and the chefs have been attentive to me and my family supporting the business since a young age.

Although, the service my boyfriend and I got today was disappointing. It took getting the cooks attention for a waiter to come and help us get assistance, because the servers were more clear on helping the bigger parties that were here (there was one party of 6, and two of 8+). We were trying to be patient as servers were helping several parties, although there were 6 waiters to serve maybe 6 tables that were full? Would've been about a waiter a table, assuming all waiters were available since they were all serving during the time we were here.

The food was delicious as always, and the atmosphere is still relaxing granted our experience here with the waiters was a bit challenging.

I have eaten here twice in the last few months due to convenience as far as parking, and it is close to the area I am staying at.

Inside Inside has plenty of tables if you want to dine in. The decor is not fancy but does what it needs to do, makes you feel invited.

The staff are cheery and helpful including all of the people that took our order, gave us the to go order, and that were clearing and cleaning the tables.

The menu is expansive and has plenty of options from lunch to party platters for large parties.

The prices are reasonable for the amount of food that you get.

This time I tried the chicken souvlaki lunch plate with fries and rice and pita bread. Salad was also an option but I was sharing a salad with someone so went with rice instead. The chicken was a little dried out but everything tasted great.

I think the salad was missing pita bread but it was a good salad.

I also tried the spanakopita this time. They were very large, not like any I had ever had before, but warm, tasty, and great.

The previous time I had a chicken plate which was great, and the Saganaki (famous Greek flaming cheese) which I was disappointed with, I think because I was expecting more due to the claim.

I have wanted to try Greek House Cafe for a long time but never had the chance. I finally made it over here for lunch today with my daughter. I asked my daughter why didn't we come here sooner?

The menu is expansive. There are so many items to choose from. I chose to focus only on the lunch plates. I decided on the lamb kabob plate since I'm a big fan of lamb. With the lunch plate, you get a choice of two sides between salad, fries, and rice. I chose salad and rice. We also decided to order an appetizer of spanokopita. The spanokopita are ginormous compared to other Greek restaurants. They were delicious. We brought them home to snack on later. The lunch plate was piled high with food. The portion is large. Besides the entree and two sides, you also get some pita bread and tzatziki. The lamb was tender and seasoned perfectly. It had a lovely flavor and did not taste gamey at all, which can sometimes happen with lamb. The salad was also a good-sized portion with a nice Greek oil-vinegar dressing.

The restaurant is very nice inside and they have a large patio outside. You order at the front and they will bring the food to your table. The servers are friendly and checked in on us to make sure everything was okay. They brought us extra napkins and boxes when we asked. They also brought little chocolate cookies to complete our meal when we were getting ready to leave.

I can't wait to return and try some of the other menu items.

Fabulous delicious. The pita and tzikiki, the gyros meat, pastitcio The wait staff attentive Prices on higher end but portions huge! I'll get three meals from this!

I used to frequent the Greek House a couple times a month for their Gyro Plate since I worked nearby.

This visit was much overdue and seeing the restaurant still well maintained after their remodel was a pleasure.

Staff at the register were very friendly. However, I noticed the prices have almost doubled. The Gyro Plate in 2020 was $13.25. Fast forwarding to 2023, the current price is a shocking $22.95! Luckily, I had someone with me to split the dish with. The portion remained generous,but I felt that the new price was simply too high.

However, the Gyro Plate had the same scrumptious taste and quality that it had previously. Gyro meat, fries and pita all still had their perfect crispness. Salad was well balanced with the cheese and tomato. Tzatziki not too thick and of perfect consistency.

This past visit was a good reminder to come back more often, but because of the large jump in price, I'll have to limit my visits and remind myself to try to make two meals out of the single plate.

What a difference 10 years makes. Quality of the food hasn't changed, but price and portion size has. I don't know who in Simi Valley can afford to pay $20+ for a side salad portion size of the gyro salad -- but I cannot. I understand inflation, but this is ridiculous!
The ambiance is beautiful, with beautiful indoor and outdoor seating. The servers are polite, but they don't seem to know anything about the size or the cost of the items on the menu.
I use to love this place every time I find myself in Simi - but I will make my way to Larsen's for a quality meal with a better price point.

This was my second time eating food from this restaurant. This time around my wife's and I ordered the chicken dinner plate. And a banana cream pie. As we entered the establishment The restaurant was clean, staff was very nice and attentive. The food this time around fell flat on its face. The chicken was ground so it tasted like bland chicken sausage. Almost looked like spam. The rice was ok. They gave free green beans on the side that didn't taste good. They also gave us a very small amount of peta bread compared to what we ordered between my wife and I. Over all I was disappointed. Would not recommend or revisit.

Food was good; but very expensive. There are other places in simi with same or better quality food at lower price. The service is great; that's why this place is busy.
