View Full Version : Greek House in Norman Sold JimTrabersColostomyBag 09-27-2012, 09:58 AM Former owners headed back to Greece..... kevinpate 09-27-2012, 10:10 AM Some big shoes to fill. Hope the new owners are up to it. HangryHippo 09-27-2012, 10:17 AM Is it going to stay as the Greek House or is a new business venture coming? ou48A 09-27-2012, 08:34 PM They will be able to live like kings & queens . I hope they stay safe though. I hope the new owners fix the air-conditioning soonermike81 09-28-2012, 10:48 AM Wonder how much it sold for. That place is a gold mine! ShiroiHikari 09-28-2012, 06:25 PM I wonder what would make them choose to go back to Greece? I thought Greece was in pretty bad shape. kevinpate 09-28-2012, 08:53 PM It's been their plan for a number of years. If memory serves, they go back for visits almost every, if not every, summer for several weeks to enjoy family and friends. ShiroiHikari 09-28-2012, 09:40 PM Ah, I see. soonerfan_in_okc 10-14-2012, 06:30 PM where did you hear this? when are the new owners taking over? Mydalmationis8 10-27-2012, 07:29 AM According to the story I've linked below, the Greek House has been on the market since 2007. Rumor was that the asking price was $300,000. I think that included the building, though. Have not heard what the actual sale price was, but that place had a lot of goodwill. The story also mentions a few menu changes, but the gist is that the place will continue on as it did when the Dimases owned it. Notably, the Gyros price seems to have gone up a bit. I think a sandwich alone is now $7. That little tidbit is not mentioned in the story.

I hadn't been there in years before yesterday so I don't know if that's higher than what it had been, but since Mydalmation mentioned the prices going up, I thought I'd share that bit of relevant information. general 11-03-2012, 10:40 PM Does the food still taste the same? HangryHippo 11-04-2012, 08:30 PM It did to me. mugofbeer 11-04-2012, 09:28 PM Hi all, my brother and I ate there before each of the K-State and Notre Dame games (yes, we'll be changing our routine due to OU losses in both cases) and the food was still excellent with huge portions as usual. I noticed the Dimas' weren't there for the most recent visit but everything seemed to be the same - especially the food. As for prices, I seem to recall it was $3.95 for the gyros when I was still in Norman so the current price of $6.95 is still a bargain - considering the portion. I hope they keep it the same as much as possible but I do wish the Dimas' my best wishes and thanks for so many wonderful meals going all the way back to 1980. |
