I have lived all over: West Virginia, Florida, Virginia, Arizona, California, and now Colorado (for 20 years). I have never had Greek that is as tasty as Best of Crete and I miss it! Joann got me hooked many years ago when I was growing up.

Hands down, best Greek/Mediterranean restaurant in West Virginia!! The food is authentic and reminds me of my summers growing up in Chicago!! You must try their gyros, baklava and grape leaves. Mike and his staff are also kind and wonderful people.

Great food reasonably priced. Located in a house on a residential street corner, parking is an issue. Limited seating inside and out. You can get the fixings to build at home as well. Baklava is excellent. Worth a visit. No alcohol, I wonder if I can bring my own wine?

Delectable cuisine, but its location (being in a residential area) is a slight issue. The neighborhood in which it is located is a bit mazelike if you don t live there, so you re unlikely to find it randomly and decide to go in unless you are specifically looking for it. So this review is saying, It s good, go there, as you kind of have to look for it.

A great little gem tucked away in the Edgewood neighborhood on Charleston's westside. The food was tremendous and the service was fast. We grabbed a table outside and enjoyed the later summer early afternoon sun. There is plenty of parking on the street and they also offer takeout. I would definitely recommend a gyro or any number of other Mediterranean dishes.

Used to go here all the time ten years ago when it was in the mall and it broke my heart when it closed. When I found out it had reopened in charleston I couldn't wait to go and see if it lived up my memories. Taking that first bite of gyro was like going to visit an old friend. So glad it's back and cant wait to return for the thursday chicken liver special.

Generous helpings, friendly staff and good Greek food. We tried a variety of items off the menu. From Spinach Pie to Gyros all was authentic. The best was their baklava at the end. I definitely would go back again.

This is, hands down, the best hummus and gyros you can get in Charleston. It's a little out of the way, but that just adds to its charm. The staff are great. Eating here almost feels like eating with family. The part of your family that you enjoy being around, that is.

Definitely my favorite place to eat in Charleston. Family-owned local business with the nicest staff and the most delicious food. I honestly could eat here every day and still love it just as much, cannot recommend enough.

Happy I finally got to eat here since I now live in NC.

Hands down one of the best kept secrets in Charleston. Nestled among the hills on the west side is the small, unassuming little neighborhood secret. You just can't get Greek food this good anywhere else in the state. The owner is almost always available for a handshake and a smile despite many times a line of customers right out the door. You can tell he runs a tight ship and the wait is more than worth it. Just make sure you nab a piece of the deliciously flaky handmade baklava before they run out for the day and you're all set!

I have come to know Mike quite well. He is so respectful of his mom and her cooking that started a tradition of fine Greek cuisine in Charleston, West Virginia. Great food and excellent hospitality !

This is an awesome restaurant the owners are really sweet to their employees as well as making the customers feel at home. I have been with this restaurant following them wherever they go for quite sometime now if that tells you anything :)
