The East End and fabulous Greek restaurants may not be synonymous for those who aren’t in the know, but it turns out the Hamptons and North Fork offer a handful of excellent Hellenic dining options. Just ask our Dan’s Best of the Best voters, who chose their favorite spots for enjoying gyros, tzatziki, moussaka, baklava, spanakopita, salads with plenty of feta cheese, and many more delicious, and often surprising, ethnic delights.

Greece celebrates their Ancient Olympia International Festival in July and August each year with music, dance, theater and more at the site of the ancient Olympics. Couple that with the fact that Los Angeles was just named host city to the 2028 Olympics Games, and it seems like as fine a time as any to show appreciation for our most ancient friends. Try something new and check out the 2016 Dan’s Best of the Best winners in the Greek Restaurant category, as elected by our readers, in the Hamptons and North Fork.

Nominations are now open for our 2017 Dan’s Best of the Best contest. Support your favorites and give them your vote at DansBotB.com, where you’ll also find more best of the best businesses, foods, wines and personalities in Hamptons and North Fork!
