Greek Restaurant Worth Trying

Mina and Dimi's is probably my number one Greek restaurant in San Antonio.  If you like Greek food that is cheap and authentic then this is a place you should try out.  Being a UTSA student myself I know that having the time to cook is limited and getting fast food gets old sometimes so going to a nice, small restaurant is a nice change once in awhile.  This restaurant in particular is a small "ma and pa" own style restaurant located off of highway 90 and highway 410.  It's menu ranges from small individual meals, like a gyro, to platters for two people, like the Hercules platter, plus many other options for a reasonable price that also includes wines and desserts.  Its inside is a nice, cozy environment that haves a Greek atmosphere to it.  The prices, I believe, are really cheap and reasonable for a UTSA student along with the amount of food they provide you with.  Location is somewhat far from the campus however, it is worth going to and trying out.

When it comes to the food, I would say I have tried most of the dishes and I have never been disappointed with my meal.  Depending on the occasion and depending on how many people are with you depends on the dish.  For example, typical gyro dish includes a pita with gyro slices on it topped with lettuce, tomato, onion, feta cheese and tzatziki sauce with homemade, seasoned fries on the side.  Sounds delicious right?  For a bigger crowd a Hercules platter may be an option which includes grilled onions, tomatoes, 4 oz of gyro meat, 2 beef shishkabobs. 2 chicken shishkabobs and oven potatoes with tzatziki sauce and honey mustard sauce along with 2 salads and pita bread.  That is a lot of food just for two people and all that food comes for a really reasonable price.  Lastly to finish off a good lunch or dinner a warm, yummy piece of baklava is the perfect dessert for ending a perfect meal.

So through this whole entry, I am suggesting to all UTSA students to go and try this wonderful Greek restaurant for a highly authentic meal for a great price and also to take a break from fast food and taste this small restaurants food because they are worth it.  If you want to check them out before going and look through their menu I will provide the link to their website.
