"It's Greek for Me!"
Greek cuisine offers an incredibly rich and diverse array of food and beverages handed down through generations. Dino and Wendy  Lykopoulos, owners of the Lazy Greek Café, welcome you to share and experience fresh, timeless, nutritious and healthy culinary delights in a charming, casual atmosphere. “Authentic Greek food prepared by an authentic Greek!” exclaims Dino.

 

“There is a reason why people fall in love with the food when visiting Greece,” says Dino. “It is fresh, flavorful and simple.” With indoor and outdoor seating, the Lazy Greek Café offers meze, or appetizers prepared with the finest imported and homemade ingredients. For example, some tempting dishes include avgolemono soup, a chicken broth and lemon soup made from scratch, sandwiches served on homemade bread, and gyros served with homemade tzatziki, a sauce made with cucumber, garlic and yogurt.

Specialty items include classics like eggplant mousaka, pastichio pasta, spanakopita and tiropita. Dino prepares Souvlaki platters with your choice of chicken breast, pork tenderloin, or lamb grilled to order. Platters are served with Campari tomatoes, English cucumbers, Greek feta, olives, tzatziki, skordalia and pita bread. On Fridays in season, make reservations to enjoy tender rack of lamb served with lemon roasted potatoes and a salad garnish.

All salads at the Lazy Greek Café are made with fresh vegetables, imported Greek premium cheeses and olives, along with dolmades, stuffed grape leaves topped with homemade dressing.

Be sure to save room for a decadent dessert such as homemade baklava, melfe, assorted cookies, cakes, and the sumptuous custard-filled boughatza.

The Lazy Greek Café also features a convenient Greek market, where you will find exclusive regional Greek wines ranging from ports to Retsina. Other beverages include imported beer and soda from Greece. Additionally, you will find authentic Greek specialties such as sheep and goat’s milk cheeses, olives, Greek sausage, olive oils, spices and teas.

If you are ready to enjoy the legendary foods of Greece, join Dino and Wendy Lykopoulos along with their sons, Lefteri and George, for a truly authentic Greek culinary experience at the Lazy Greek Café cozily located in the Brickyard Plaza under a beautiful ficus tree canopy.
