University Broiler & Grill

Solid Greek food. The pita was very nice (although they give you quite a lot of hummus in comparison to actual bread), as well as the mozzarella sticks. Warm and satisfying. For the actual entrees, I had a shrimp kebab and chicken kebab. Both of them were good, and they were filling. Nothing to write home about really, but I had an enjoyable time there. Service was nice too, I liked our waiter! He was a great guy. My mom’s order was someone else’s though, but luckily enough, the only thing she didn’t order on it was the french fries. She got the original side she wanted in the end, so all was well. It was just due to some new staff confusing tables, so no harm done. Good experience overall. Mozzarella Sticks: 8/10. My first mozzarella sticks… eaten at a Greek restaurant. Well, they were good! Nice and hot, went great with the marinara sauce. Cheese pull wasn’t disappointing. The mozzarella was super, breaded wonderfully. Very good, I enjoyed them. Hummus & Pita Bread: 9/10. Who goes to a Greek restaurant and doesn’t order hummus and pita bread? This was spectacular. The bread was nice and warm, very soft, and the hummus tasted delicious. The pita gave me a very homey, warm feeling. For some reason, just eating it brought me comfort. They give you way too much hummus in comparison to the amount of bread they give you, so we had to ask for more. It was super good though. Chicken & Shrimp Kebabs: 8/10. I received one chicken kebab and one shrimp kebab. They were very good! Both were done well and seasoned nicely, tasted very flavorful. Chicken wasn’t dry, shrimp wasn’t over-cooked or anything. The tzizki sauce paired wonderfully with it. The dish came with some pita bread that I used to eat the extra hummus with as well. Good food. Baklava: 9/10. I have to wonder why I have never tried such a delicacy like baklava. This was perfect, I loved it. It was much easier to eat with my hands than the fork they give, but I guess some people just don’t like to eat with their hands. Couldn’t be me though, my Indian ancestors shan’t roll in their graves because of me. Super good and sweet, but not too sweet. The honey was sticky and the bread was thick in the perfect way. It’s a great dessert for if you like sweet treats that aren’t too tooth-rotting.

Excellent Mediterranean cuisine with nice sides included. Everything tasted so fresh and the service was prompt & attentive, restaurant was clean with a wall of pictures showing all the dishes. Really great find along Harrison Blvd when we came up to visit our daughter at Weber State. New favorite place to eat. Also, it's not super fancy inside, but the authenticity and mix of Mediterranean flavors is, hands down, the best we've ever had! It's a fun place to take a date and the prices are reasonable with great portion sizes and options for entrees and sides. We absolutely LOVE University Broiler & Grill!
