Greek Corner Restaurant on Massachusetts Avenue in Cambridge has been serving authentic Greek home cooking to the Cambridge community since it opened, building a following around moussaka, spanakopita, and the family recipes that Greek immigrant restaurants brought to New England and kept alive through decades of change in the neighborhood around them. It appeared in Season 10, Episode 3 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Timeless,” which aired September 13, 2010. Guy Fieri found a Greek kitchen doing things properly from scratch in a college city that has plenty of food options and chooses Greek Corner for the real thing.

What to Eat
The Moussaka — layered eggplant, spiced ground lamb, and creamy béchamel baked until the top is golden — is the dish that defines what a proper Greek kitchen produces. The Spanakopita, spinach and feta wrapped in flaky phyllo, is the appetizer most regulars order first. The Lamb Chops, grilled with lemon and oregano, are the protein centerpiece worth ordering for dinner. The Avgolemono Soup, egg and lemon rice broth with chicken, is the Greek comfort food bowl that earns its own devoted following. The Baklava, honey and pistachio in layers of phyllo, is the dessert that closes every proper Greek meal. Find a Cambridge or Boston hotel on Booking.com.
