Reviews for gfg cafe cuisine in New York, NY
The food is delicious!!! I got lentils & rice as my base with sides of Greek salad and black eyed beans salad and roasted lamb.... The portions are too big for lunch for me, so I split it between two days. The desserts look so scrumptious but haven't triedthem yet. I wish they turn down the music a little in the back. It's hard to understand the server, and for them to understandmy order. Read more
If you feel homesick for Astoria, this is where you go. Great Greek food choices with a coffee shop and a variety of Greek... pastries. Friendly staff will make you feel at home at this spacious Midtown location. I highly recommend! Read more
This restaurant was pretty good. Their pita and hummus was amazing. Their Greek salads were good but extremely salty. Their... burgers and fries are really good as well. Read more
Such a cute place. The downstairs is great for buying deserts or coffee that smells amazing. Upstairs, they have dinner. Their... server is really nice. The food is wonderful. We ordered an appetizer that had cheese and a salad that tasted amazing. Very goodplace. Read more
Someone likened Fournos Theophilos to Eataly when describing it to me. Perhaps but on a much smaller scale. Fournos Theophilos... is thoughtfully put together, with informal seating and excellent cooked food. My party of four adults and one child met forbrunch there. The portions are well-priced. Everyone?s dish arrived perfectly salted, no need for any additional. I had a tomatosoup with feta swirl in the middle. (I am sharing a picture here but forgot to take it before stirring the bowl.) I also had amac-n-cheese dish and it arrived with firm pasta. Very tasty. The rest of the adults ordered egg-based dishes and the child wentfor a cheese pie. We also had one dessert, a bougatsa, which was sweet and creamy and had firm phyllo. Five orders, beveragesand coffees plus one dessert all came to a little under $100. Seating is comfortable and tables are well-spaced. You will notbe sitting on top of one another. The bathrooms are utilitarian. There is a small Greek market in the center (hence the?Eataly? interpretation from my friend) with some excellent selections. Spanakopita (spinach pie) looks fresh (you can tell) andthere are jarred sweets and Greek beverages. I even purchased a tote bag to carry my goodies away. PS: How does FournosTheophilos differ from GRK? They both offer ?fast? Greek food. GRK specializes in grilled food, like souvlaki, and offers theoccasional baked dish, like spanakopita. Fournos Theophilos is ?home-cooked? and has the market. Read more
Authentic Greek Food in a great atmosphere. Make sure you try the Freddo Espresso Coffee along with a delicious spinach pie!
Great addition to Midtown. I enjoyed customizing a hearty snack at the yogurt bar, which offered two types of Greek yogurt and a... unique array of toppings. The baked goods and warm food also looked extremely satisfying. Read more
My husband & I spent $32 for 2 bowls of lunch. You can choose for each plate 1 main, 2 sides and 1 base. In quantity it's pretty... decent. The only thing I didn't like was their containers were so small that they had to put one or two sides over the rest offood but in quality and flavor it's really good! I enjoyed greek food! Read more
