Opened by the Greek-American Paulos family in 1972, Greek Souvlaki
continues to be a popular quick-serve restaurant alternative for Salt
Lake City locals. Spotlighted by blue-lighted signage, three locations
serve Greek favorites in crowded, bustling environments. The menu starts
with the staple of Greek grab-and-go food, the gyro. This pita-wrapped
sandwich comes with marinated beef or lamb and tomato red sauce or
yogurt cucumber sauce. Side items can include a Greek salad with feta
cheese and kalamata olives, fries, and pilaf, or lemon rice. Portions
are so substantial that locals know Greek Souvlaki will provide
tomorrow’s leftovers. Other favored dishes include Greek spaghetti,
vegetable stew-like fasolia and, unsurprisingly, souvlaki.
No alcohol available. Serving lunch and dinner daily.
"Founded in 1972 by Lee and Mary Paulos — the first to bring Greek
gyros to Utah. Their sons — Frank, Leo and Chris — now operate the
business with the same great recipes."
