Mr Greek Express

I visited this place after a very long time (after this review you will know why). Upon entering, they were surprisingly busy for the time and day I went. The time it took from ordering to actually getting my food was about 20 mins, a little odd for an «express» restaurant.
Hoping the time it took for the food to be made meant it would be good was soon realized to be a pipe dream. The chicken was very dry and burnt; that didn’t bother me. The fact that the food was ABSOLUTELY TASTELESS outraged me. I’ve had baby food that tasted better. Looking at the potatoes and rice, I hoped for the best as Greek places usually have very tasty potatoes and rice. Once again I was being hopeful and building castles in the sky hoping they would be any good.
I really wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone unless you like getting ripped off (I paid $ 15).
If you want Greek food, go somewhere else.

Food was ok. But for fast food style «Greek» food it’s too expensive. I miss the old mr. Greek restaurant. It was full service and was the same price.

I had grilled squid with vegetables and mr. greek potatoes on the side, the food is good and tasty, and I also like their extensive selection of fountain drinks. Your have to order and pick up your own food and drink, no waiter services, like other fast food restaurants.

Well, the place certainly is express. The food is fast — it’s also cold — it’s ok I guess, but the place feels greasy kind of and doesn’t smell like it should. It’s fast food Greek food — don’t expect too much — don’t think I will go back.

Went there last night. Wasn’t thrilled with the place.
When ordering, I asked what was in one of the soups and the girl couldn’t answer. She didn’t know .
Well I ended up ordering lentil soup which was just ok. I would never order that again
Then I ordered classic gyro. The serving size was huge. But it was just ok. I will not order it again. Was too thrilled by it.
I suggest if u go there, stick to a basic sandwich .
I wasted my $ 20 last night. But hey, one learns from experience.

This place is terrible. We are here right now for lunch. We waited 20 minutes for our basic salads with the pre cooked chicken.
1. The portions are so small for the price. I ordered a chicken souvlaki– original size with only salad. I got limp brown lettuce and 6 small pieces of chicken that were so small they were bite sized. The size of the salad would be what another restaurant would serve as a side salad. I will need to get more food as it isn’t enough.
2. My co worker ordered a Greek salad with a chicken breast. The chicken breast is burnt, and the lettuce is also brown and limp. The lettuce was swimming in dressing.
3. The person prepping the food wiped her nose on the top of her hand and continued food prep. She cut up vegetables and meat on the same service which is far from clean.
4. The person cleaning the condiment station also just took dirty napkins from someone’s discarded food plate and put them back into the dispenser.
All in all we should have gone to another restaurant in the area, as there are many.

This restaurant has a very weird set up. One side has only booths while the other side has only tables. When I went, the table side was closed down for whatever reason.
The cashier I ordered from looked angry for some reason but she took my order just the same. The good thing about this place is that the food is served pretty quickly.
I ordered the chicken pita which was really good. The chicken was cooked really well but really no work went into forming the pita itself.
Overall, it was decent experience.

the place seems very confused… it has a fish aquarium and partly decorated like its someones house…
you pretty much get your typical mall fast food greek food here… but significantly more expensive.
my souvalaki was burnt almost black. parts were inedible. (edible if i wanted cancer from the carcinogens)
look at the picture.
then. while eating the chicken. i nearly choked when i found out part of the chicken had a skewer which broke off and still in the middle of the piece of chicken.
i will say the 100 drink selection coca cola machine might be their only saving grace. (FUZE green tea is really smooth and delicious)
Thats about it.

I remember coming to this place a few years ago and enjoying it wholeheartedly. Now, the experience is not quite the same. Unfortunately.
The place gives a greasy, unclean kind of feeling. Service is fast, some employees are definitely friendly, but the quality of the food isn’t great. I ordered a chicken Souvlaki plate hoping for a good experience. Instead, I received burnt chicken and improperly cooked rice. The only item I managed to finish on my plate, was the salad. I informed an employee of the burnt chicken, and she prepared a fresh chicken skewer for me right away. As much as I appreciated it, I had lost my appetite by that point and decided to take it home instead.
Definitely not a place I’d recommend if you’re looking for Greek fast food.

This place is filthy!!!, oh and don’t ask them to make changes for added cost, they want you to upgrade and pay. Gave it one star because 0 is not an option, please clean up the drips and moldy cheese from the serving counters.

This place used to be a regular haunt of mine when they first opened in the late 90’s. I hadn’t been back in years so decided give it a try again and was appalled. The original owners (Greek) have sold up and the current owners obviously have NO experience or knowledge on preparing Greek food. My souvlaki on a pita was totally uninspired as was my boyfriends sandwich. Service was slow and the staff indifferent.

The souvlaki is fine and gyros are decent but everything else pretty much sucks, especially the side dishes. Undercooked potatoes, bland rice smothered in tomato sauce, salad dressing from a bag and loaded with preservatives, and frozen French fries. Stick to a sandwich on a pita and avoid everything else, especially the sides !

When it first opened several years ago this used to be a good alternative to going to a regular sit-​down greek restaurant. Mr. Greek food (and prices unfortunately) with fast food convenience. Over the past couple years however the quality has gone down dramatically, to the point where I won’t eat here anymore. On more than one occasion I’ve ordered the chicken souvlaki dinner and it hasn’t tasted like chicken. This is not an exaggeration, it’s actually tasted like a cross between lunch meat and a sponge. I am guessing this is caused by the half-​cooked skewers sitting in water/​brine for extended periods of time prior to being flash-​grilled and served. If that isn’t bad enough, the owner/​manager is an ass and they nickel and dime you for extra tzaziki. If I’m paying 40 bucks for a dinner for 2 at a semi fast-​food restaurant, why do you need to charge me $ 1 for an extra teaspoon of yogurt?
Heed my advice and go to Fire Pit down the road instead. You will not be sorry.

I was in Heartland and quickly wanted to get some lunch and ordered some take out. Service was lightning fast, I mean I paid and before the debit machine said approved my food was ready. Witch made me doubt the freshness of the food and think that it has been lying on their pans just being kept warm?! Anyhow it tasted ok, wasn’t the best I ate but also not the worst. If I would be in the area next time and feel like Greek I would come back.

If you’re looking for a place to nosh-​up before spending a day walking around the Heartland Town Centre outlet googleplex, Mr. Greek Express isn’t too bad of a choice. It’s that or Tucker’s Marketplace.
All your favorites served up quick (well quicker than the sit down version) and no threat of waiter combustion due to a poorly executed opa! I had the gyros and CUTE! Chinese girl had the chicken souvlaki in a pita. You can get fries or greek salad (salad is extra). The fries are decent. The greek salad is nothing to write home about. The gyros I found lacking any zing. The CUTE! Chinese girl gave me half her souvlaki and that tasted a bit better. All ‘n’ all the pita wrap combos kind of fail but I’ve had the full dinner items previously and they’re more in keeping with the Danforth experience.
The food does take some prep time and if its busy, express becomes something of a misnomer.
