Sparta Greek Grill - Edmonton

I decided to try this place finally and was pleasantly surprised! Food was good, generous portion size and service was friendly. I only ordered out to take home however my toddler was climbing all over the place while we waited and the place definitely could’ve used a good clean. Will be back.

It looked like everything was being made from frozen ingredients not fresh. You could actually see a huge freezer in the back where ingredients were being taken out off. It is more of a fast food place than an actual restaurant. Very small inside, there's two floors, but the place seems very small. Out of everything that we ordered, the only thing that I enjoyed was the tzaziki. And, they do not have a doner.

We've driven by several times and finally stopped in. It was dark inside and not busy so that is usually not a good sign. Grandmother was behind the counter and the daughter and kids had just left, there were no other customers. She served us well, though some words were lost in the accent. We ordered donair platter with potato and greek salad, along with large side of hummus and medley wrap. Received chicken wrap instead of the mixed meat. Smelled great, the taste did not match unfortunately. Love supporting local but the potatoes smelled and tasted unusually, even my husband who is a big potato fan couldn't eat them. The hummus was salty and lumpy and the tzatziki was bland. The worst was the gyro, dry and burnt on the ends of the strip. Sadly this is not a venue to venture into at this time, hope they can improve it to compete with nearby establishments.

Really nice little place, kind of a small family run type of atmosphere but the food was excellent, the people very nice and it was clean. The dolomades are amongst the best I've had anywhere and the baklava was almost too good for words. Good prices and portions too.

While going to a true greek restaurant is all about the experience, sparta is that just no belly dancing, the food is on par with the fancy places and it's a really good price too for what you get.
