The Greek on Main is a Greek restaurant in the Downtown neighborhood of Metuchen.
“The Greek on Main delivers real Greek cooking with pride. The gyro meat is juicy and seasoned with balance, the pita is warm and soft, and the tzatziki tastes fresh and homemade. The service is attentive and helpful, and the whole place has that authentic Greek atmosphere that makes you feel at home. You can tell they care about quality and tradition. Highly recommended.”
“We hosted a bridal shower at The Greek on Main and everything was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. The owner was incredibly accommodating, making the entire day completely stress-free—we truly felt taken care of throughout. The food was delicious—apps included calamari, spreads, and salad, and guests couldn’t stop talking about how perfectly cooked the calamari was. For entrées, the salmon and chicken were the most popular choices, and both were cooked to perfection. The restaurant has been recently renovated, and the décor and ambiance truly speak for themselves. We kept it simple with just bud vases on the tables, and it still looked beautiful and perfectly suited for a bridal shower. The service was truly impeccable, and we couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out. It was a perfect day, and we will absolutely consider this venue again for future events.”
“Great service and delicious food. If your craving authentic greek food this is the go to spot. I had the Soulvlaki chicken which was very good. The place was very clean and very greek ambiance with music and decor. Prices were very reasonable and large portions. Definetly will come again. Highly recommend.”
“This was a first Greek restaurant we have ever been to and it was a great one. The restaurant itself was inviting and well-lit. Hostess greeted us in a friendly manner. Our waitress was also friendly with lots of smiles. She explained to us some of the favorite dishes. We ended up ordering the seafood soup (Kakavia) to share, and lobster pasta (Astakomakaronada) and lamb shank (Arni Yuvetsi Kritharaki). All dishes we ordered were fantastic and flavorful. One minor ding on this great meal is that all dishes were just a little over seasoned for us. Other than that, I highly recommended and would definitely go back!”
“Came here Friday night around 7PM. Wasn’t packed at all and we got seated quickly. They start you off with some bread and olive oil. Appetizers Tyrokroketes - 10/10 recommend. They are pretty much mozzarella balls, but with feta cheese. Mozzarella cheese with tomato - 10/10 recommend. Fig and Goat Cheese Flat Bread - 4/10. I usually enjoy eating flat breads. I think the bread itself was good. But the caramelized onions were not tasty to me. If you’re a fan of goat cheese, give this a try, but maybe tell them to add less onions. Entrees Lavraki - so this dish, my partner really enjoyed 10/10. We got it butterfly cut. I personally did not enjoy it. I added black pepper to it and the lemon provided. Which made it taste slightly better. This is supposed to be a “sweet delicate dish” so if you’re looking for something light and healthy, this is the dish! Lamb shank - I don’t recall this dish name. (Might be called the Arni Yuvetsi Kritharaki) I thought the lamb itself was a bit too chewy and the rice (I think that’s what it was), had an odd taste to it. I would prefer white rice instead. But maybe that is their traditional Greek flavor, not sure. Overall I would rate this dish 6/10. My partner rated it a 8/10. Overall, the staff was friendly. Our server was great! This restaurant definitely gives Greek vibes! I would come back to eat the Tyrokroketes again and try the hummus. The chicken dishes also sound appetizing!”
