“ Great for Uber eats pretty fast included the delicious red sauce, but didn't include the feta. I asked for still good.! ”
“ I ordered a large chicken shawarma for pickup via the Yelp app. The place had a nice, open layout with both indoor and outdoor seating. The shawarma was fire! The red sauce packed a serious punch, and I love spicy food. Just a heads up: they're cashless! So, make sure you bring a card. ”
“ Troy's has fantastic Mediterranean food! We sat down right away - no waiting. I ordered the Meza Platter (vegetarian appetizers) as my entree. The menu lists components as Hummus, Falafel, Dolmas, Melitzano salata, Feta cheese, Olives and served with pita. ($16) I also got an order of Spanokopita ($7) ”
“ This is arguably the best Mediterranean food I have ever had. Most others over cook most of their meats. I had the Mediterranean plate. The chicken shawarma was absolutely perfect!!! Moist, tender and so tasty. Even the strips of gyros meat, that they served on top of my friend's Bloody Mary, were tender and tasty. Pita was fresh and hot out of the oven Our server was awesome. Sidewalk dining in front or in parklet made for great al fresco dining and ambience. Highly recommend. ”
“ Our guest's favorite food is Mediterranean, so we took her here after our visit to Rosenblum Winery. Quality/Quantity - All the food was good! As they always are. Falafel - Today I felt it was a little dry?? But still good. Saganaki - Also called salted cheese where our guest is from. This was good, but of course we would have preferred more cheese. Just being greedy. Gyro Platter - Two orders. My favorite and my usual, but as always, I was not able to finish. Gyro Wrap - Small. My daughter enjoyed it and finished it. Beef Souvlaki Wrap - Small. Our guest's favorite and she was able to finish. Atmosphere - Causal Greek cuisine. Replaced the former Pappo. Open 7 days a week from 11am to 9pm. Indoor/outdoor seating. Metered street parking, but if you are willing to walk an extra block or two, there is free street parking. Service - Good. Delivery by Grubhub, Uber Eats, and Doordash. Price - Approximately $95 + tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success with your recent expansion to Pappo and your 3 locations. I have been to 2 of your 3 locations and still have not visited your Martinez location. ”
“ I came here to grab take out on a Saturday afternoon and the service was quick. The restaurant is clean and bright with outdoor seating as well. I ordered the chicken shawarma wrap and a Greek fry. Portions are large and everything was very neatly put together and fresh. Next time, I will try and dine in. ”
“ My fiancé and I dropped by around 7 PM on a Friday. Surprisingly, the place was quiet with plenty of space to choose from. Opting for an indoor table by the window, we quickly dove into their extensive Greek menu. I went for the garlic fries and a large gyro wrap, while my fiancé chose the hummus and chicken souvlaki. The souvlaki was flavorful but a tad too lemony for our taste. The hummus was solid - exactly what you'd expect. The highlight? The garlic fries. A generous portion that was perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, served with an incredibly spicy green hot sauce and a milder red sauce. We hit a small snag when my gyro was mistakenly delivered to another table, but the staff quickly fixed the issue and kindly removed it from our bill. Overall, our experience was positive and the food exceeded our expectations. We're definitely coming back for more, especially the gyros, and are excited to explore the rest of the menu ”
“ Troy is a nice location to get some Greek food! party arrived at around 12:15pm and there were plenty of table. They also have some patio seating for those who enjoy looking outside and enjoying the weather when you sit! My party and I shared the Meza Platter appetizer. It consisted of hummus, pita, 2 falafels, and dolmas, olives, and feta cheese. I particularly enjoyed the hummus and the pita. The pita was warm and the hummus was fresh! In addition, I was pleasantly surprised by the falafels because they weren't dry and was nicely seasoned/flavored. I also shared the chicken souvlaki platter with a friend. It smelled so delicious when the server brought over our food! It consisted of chicken breast, rice, grilled vegetable, hummus, rice, hummus. The chicken may have been over seasoned to eat on its own imo, but paired nicely with the grilled zucchini and the rice, so I didn't mind. This was a great meal with plenty of food that could easily be shared! It's definitely worth a try if you're around! ”
