ABOUT US Since our start in 1995, Gilshar Greek Cafe has become a staple for Greek food on Long Island. A family-owned business, the name Gilshar was created by combining the middle names of both the …
I've been going here since it opened in the 90's. The staff have always been friendly. Prices are competitive. Portions are very big and most importantly, the taste is the best Greek cuisine I've ever had in New York. They are consistent and never disappoint. I highly recommend them. My wife loves the Greek salad and dolmas. I'm partial to the Gyro.

The food was absolutely delicious. The portions are huge. The packaging was done with such care. I actually called the restaurant and asked to speak with the owner. I had to tell her her food was amazing

Food was alright. Everyone thought the gyro meat was on the dry side and the grape leaves definitely come from a can. Portion sizes for the price are small compared to other Greek restaurants in the area

First time ordering from here, will definitely order again!
I ordered a Greek side salad- it was HUGE literally enough for a 2-3 servings ! Came with one dolma that was DELICIOUS, I would order extra next time!
Also ordered falafel sandwich which was also fresh and delicious & tzadziki/ tahini sauces, the falafel was crispy and had really interesting spices
YUM!!

It was just "ok". While the portion sizes were decent, it still didn't justify how expensive everything was. The Chicken Tender Plate was good and the Small Salad was fresh. The best part of the Mozzarella Sticks was the sauce and the Choc Chip Cookies aren't worth it. It will be some time before we think about ordering from here again, and if we do we'll be more selective.
