Upon entering the place is way bigger than it looks from the outside. You get that old school diner vibe but with a modern homey type charm.
The place was packed but we were seated immediately and greeted by very friendly staff.
We decided to just order a couple of apps because we couldn't decide on one thing.
Everything we ordered was excellent. I love Spanakopita and this was the best I've had in quite a while. Oh and that yogurt sauce. SO GOOD. I could have eaten it out of the bowl like it was soup.
Our waitress was a sweetheart as was the women at the counter when we left to pay.
So glad I finally stopped in ! Can't wait to come back again. read less

The owners of the GID know the importance of customer service. This is the type of place where you almost never hear "no" to a special request and you're always greeted with warmth and hospitality.
Their very efficient and their delivery is the fastest in the area, hands down.
Breakfast is great as well as lunch, dinner and desserts. What I find hilarious is that with a town that hosts 5 pizzerias the GID has the best mozzarella sticks in town lol.
Be prepared when you get the Greek salad because in addition to being delicious they are HUGE.
We also love the falafel and hummus pita, try it.
The paninis are great, as well as the Greek specialties and burgers.
Can't say enough great things! read less

My husband and I just had a baby and rarely leave the house. The Greek island diner delivered two delicious gyros to my house along with a yummy spanakopita and crispy fries! I moved to Ridge 3 years and had no idea there were any other delivery options other than pizza or Chinese. I highly recommend this place! My husband and I would give them 10 stars if we could! read less

The great part is that they can make most menu items gluten free!

The restaurant and especially the bathrooms are always clean. I come here often either alone or with friends and have never had a disappointing meal. I also recently attended a surprise birthday party catered by Greek Island Diner and the food was amazing! There was a make-your-own Greek salad bar with all the fixings, and a variety of hot and cold foods. Truly delicious and plentiful! Consider them for your next catered party! read less
