George's Greek Cafe

This place has some excellent lamb!

Granted this place is in the middle of downtown Long Beach (hence a tourist place), the quality of food is quite superb. The Keleftico (slow roasted lamb, only served on Friday Nights $14.95) was really good, and worth the drive out.

The lamb is somewhat tender. I would compare it to pulled pork BBQ, only lamb style. Served with salad and pita bread however, this dish has an array of flavors and can satisfy most. Pairing this with a glass of wine is magnificent, and well worth the extra money (around $4-$7).

This place is a really great date place, or a great place to try lamb. Authentic Greek restaurant with SMASHING PLATES!
