The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill Opens Sacramento-area locations

SACRAMENTO, CA (Aug. 7, 2023) – The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill®, an award-winning and rapidly expanding fast-casual concept, opened its first two Sacramento-area locations on Monday, July 31. The restaurant is a member of the Starpoint Brands™ family of trusted companies representing the very best in their industries.

Guests can enjoy modern interpretations of traditional Mediterranean favorites in an elevated fast-casual atmosphere. The restaurant boasts an award-winning menu featuring chef-inspired recipes and bold flavors that satisfy any appetite, like the fan-favorite Great Greek Gyro, as well as Lamb, Steak and Chicken Souvlaki Plates that are complemented by the restaurant’s four signature house-made dips, including Hummus, Tzatziki, Melitzanosalata (eggplant dip) and Tirokafteri (spicy roasted red pepper).

Arjun and Mandy Dheer are the husband and wife behind the Roseville restaurant, located at 2010 Blue Oaks Blvd., suite 140, Roseville, CA on the corner of Fiddyment Road and Blue Oaks Blvd. The couple was seeking a food concept that would allow them to serve meals to the community that are both delicious and healthy when they discovered The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill. The foodie pair were instantly drawn to the restaurant by its fresh, high-quality ingredients, and were excited to have the opportunity to use their management expertise and passion for food to provide locals with an exceptional dining experience.

“We’re proud to expand access to a healthier dining alternative to fast food in the greater Sacramento-area,” said Arjun Dheer. “We look forward to sharing our passion and serving the bold flavors of the Mediterranean in our community.”

Erle and Jessica Dizon own and operate the new Sacramento location at 3700 Crocker Drive, suite 100, situated between Sacramento City College and Curtis Park in Crocker Village. With a love for Greek cuisine and a common drive to pursue franchising opportunities, the pair knew The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill would be a perfect fit for their family and lifestyle. The Dizons own several residential facilities in the Central Valley and have always enjoyed working together to accomplish their goals, which now include spreading the fast-casual eatery’s footprint as they plan to open additional locations in the future.

“We love the quality of the food, the ambiance of the elevated, fast-casual setting and the flavor variety that Mediterranean cuisine offers,” said Jessica Dizon. “This restaurant is something special that we know our community will enjoy and appreciate.”

Aligning with the concept’s mission to Live Your Life Deliciously, everything is prepared in house with fresh ingredients that bring traditional flavors from recipes that have been used for generations. The menu includes a wide variety of customizable options, including the Classic Greek Salad or Rice Bowl with a choice of Gyro Meat, Salmon or several other protein choices.
