Just had a gyro with fries. Gyro meat was pretty much flavorless and tasted mainly the pita. It was also very dry and didn’t have much sauce on it at all. Not sure if it was a bad day for the chef but better off going to Cheshire pizza and paying 13 dollars for a better gyro and fries included than 16 dollars here and the quality as bad.

I rarely go out of my way to post a review on my food experiences but I feel compelled posting one on Freskos for two reasons: First and foremost because the food quality is outstanding and among the closest I have ever tasted to the real deal. I was born and raised in Greece and I must say it is hard to find a place in the US that gets it right. I lived for 21 years in NY and have gone to pretty much every great Greek restaurant in the City. And in all fairness, most of them produce incredible quality food but very few can capture the taste of the food in Greece. Recently I moved my business and my life to CT and since I tried Freskos, I have been ordering for me and my crew every single day only from them. So while taste is a very subjective matter, my opinion has at the very least the validity of having purchased from them hundreds of times for me and a dozen of people around me. The food is always fresh and tastes great, the people are amazing. My lunch time is my single moment during the day that I feel at home. However the other reason I wanted to leave my review is because I was truly shocked by the comments of the previous review posted by Helena Marie. Just for reference, all her other reviews are 1-star super negative and involve money complains and bills that she did not think she should pay, except two reviews, one on a bagel place and one on a 99-cents Chinese restaurant that offered massive amount of food for very little money. Marie Helen, if you can read this, you are wrong about Freskos and you know it. Actually every single word you said is wrong and unfair simultaneously. And 95% of the nearly 250 reviews here firmly disagree with you. If you wanted to make a difference, for once in your life you just did with this review, but it reflects on you so negatively just as your intentions did leaving those comments. Best advice I can give you, give Freskos another try and come back here and correct your self.

I had the worst experience ever. My husband is Greek and I use to live in a town with many Greek people. First of all staff was not welcoming at all, it was very awkward. They do not know how to interact with customers. Food is such a small portion and very expensive. I spent 95 dollars and felt like I got no food at all. They don’t have chicken Souvlaki platter if I want to get a salad with it , it is extra . Usually in every Greek place I’ve been to you get the souvlaki , pita bread , fries and salad. If you want the Greek drink with your meal it does not include that and is extra never have I’ve had that happen anywhere else. We got the lamb gyro as well and it tasted like the cheap gyro was very horrible. Food is so mediocre . I wish I could get my money back because it was such a waste . I am very disappointed and dissatisfied with my experience. Knowing how Greek food and people are this has to be the lowest standard of service and food I’ve had experienced . Expected way more. Please don’t waste your money and go elsewhere. Pictures below show the chicken gyro the bread falling off and Not edible , Greek fries they definitely use cheap feta cheese tasted like one you would get from Walmart. Those Greek cookies were so disgusting even let my husbands mother try them who makes these herself and she said they tasted so bad . The cookie taste nothing close to how Greek people make it. I am so disappointed.
