This weekend, an excellent option for those looking to break away from the traditional and surprise their palates is to try the authentic taste of the Mediterranean at La Palapa Griega, a restaurant that has gained popularity among locals and tourists alike for its unique and delicious cuisine.
One of the signature dishes is the Greek gyro, considered by many to be the ideal guilty pleasure. Prepared with freshly baked pita bread, lamb marinated with the house’s special seasoning, accompanied by tomato, onion, and the traditional tzatziki dressing, this dish is served with French fries or a fresh Greek salad as a side dish.
“It’s one of the signature dishes here at La Palapa Griega. Many people come looking for seafood because we’re close to the beach, but we have this Greek food section. Many people try the gyros and come back. Interestingly, it’s one of our best-selling dishes here on the beach,” commented Daniel Torres, manager of La Palapa Griega.
Although the menu also includes seafood, burgers, and Greek-style lasagna, Mediterranean cuisine has established itself as the restaurant’s favorite, thanks to its authenticity and unique flavor.
“The owner, who is Greek, came looking for a place to retire here in San Carlos and had the idea of opening his business and introducing this very popular Mediterranean cuisine, which is quite healthy and very popular among diners here in San Carlos,” the restaurant manager noted.
