It's All Greek to Me is a Greek restaurant in downtown Burlington. It's located a block away from the main streets (lakeshore/brant), so the outdoor patio isn't as noisy as some of the other downtown restaurants.

Cost

Appetizers are around $8-$12
Entrees are between $16-$25

Dress

Shorts/T-shirt are fine on the patio, but you may want to wear nice pants/button shirt for indoor dining.

Items Ordered

Bread

Cost:Free

The bread was provided as a free appetizer, and was served with olive tapas and an olive oil and vinegar mix. The bread was a very plain baguette, but was enjoyable with the provided toppings.

Feta and Pepper Dip (appetizer)

Red peppers, feta, garlic, extra virgin olive oil blended and served with pita bread
Cost:$8

This was a fun appetizer to share. The red pepper dip was very flavorful, and fun to eat with the toasted pitas.

True Greek Salad (appetizer)

Fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, green peppers, spanish onions, and kalamata olives, topped with a slab of imported feta cheese
Cost:$13

This really was a true Greek salad - one of the best outside of Greece. The feta cheese is likely made from sheep's milk, as it has a slightly different flavor than traditional North American feta cheese. It works very well in the salad. The salad also contains tomatoes, cucumbers, green peppers, onions, and olives. The salad was not dressed, but came with olive oil and balsamic vinegar that you could add yourself.

Chicken with Roasted Red Peppers and Feta

Chicken Supreme, baked in extra virgin olive oil and stuffed with roasted red peppers and feta cheese. Served with roasted potatoes and beet and walnut salad.
Cost:$22

The beet salad was chopped up beets and walnuts, coated in a light cream. If you like beets, you will almost certainly enjoy this salad.

The chicken was difficult to eat. It was stuffed with the roasted pepper and cheese mix, which made it difficult to cut up and separate from the inedible parts of the chicken. The roasted pepper mix was quite excellent, and tasted wonderfully with the chicken. It was a very enjoyable combination. It was served with a cheese pesto drizzle that had a hint of cinnamon, making the chicken a very colorful dish to enjoy. The red, orange, and green made it quite pretty.
