“ I’m so glad I tried this place! Visiting this Greek place was such a wonderful experience. The staff were attentive and genuinely cared about making sure I had a great meal. The spanakopita was perfectly flaky. The Greek salad was crisp and refreshing, and the tzatziki was the best I’ve ever tasted—creamy, tangy, and packed with flavor. I could really tell that the ingredients were high quality and prepared with a lot of care. Even the little details, like the warm pita bread and the complimentary olives, made everything extra special. I finished my meal with a piece of baklava, and it was the perfect sweet ending. If you love authentic Greek food or just want a great meal in a warm and inviting setting, I highly recommend this restaurant. I left feeling happy, satisfied, and excited to come back again soon! ”
“ We attended for Valentine’s Day and the ambiance, menu, service and food was exceptional. The mousaka and lamb souvlaki was absolutely delicious and I felt like I was at an island in Greece. Such a nice variety of entrees and I can’t wait to return again. Plus I want to try the lunch menu and have their homemade milkshakes! Such a great find in Denville. Worth the drive to dine again. ”
“ The food was very fresh and good. The various dips were fresh and light. The gyro meat was sliced super thin. Great food. ”
“ I cannot say enough great things about this joint. The owner is a warm, welcoming, helluva nice guy, as is the rest of the staff. The food is always fresh, portions are very sizable and prices are great. The restaurant itself is very bright and beautiful on the inside and the A/C is always cranking for those hot, summer days paired with a filling, refreshing meal. My friend and I have become frequent patrons since we first stopped in a few weeks ago. We love it here, and you will too!! ”
“ We had a marvelous dinner tonight at Greece Lightning! Adam greeted us as we entered and truly treated us as family. We came with 6 children and 5 adults. Adam was kind, patient and went above and beyond to engage the kiddos and keep everyone happy and very well fed. The food was authentic and absolutely delicious; hummus with warm, fresh pita, real Greek olives, lamb and chicken Gyros, homemade spanakopita and souvlaki, What more can I say, a genuine culinary delight! ”
“ Great gyros, friendly attention, cute atmosphere! A bit more expensive than your typical gyro but the place is very nice and the food is worth it. ”
“ Fantastic. Lamb gyro “Greece style” was perfect for lunch. The pita was warm and soft, the meat tender and delicious, and I even enjoyed it with the raw onions which I typically avoid. Service was warm and friendly, I did not feel awkward at all enjoying a meal by myself. Highly recommend. ”
“ Greece Lightning's catering via their teardrop trailer was a hit at our wedding. We highly suggest the business as it was great working with Elene and Peter. The team was willing to travel about 2 hours to work our event. The food is delicious and they were prepared for our amount of guests. The customer service and communication was spectacular, we are grateful they were part of our big day. Thank you Greece Lightning! ”
