Updated Nov. 2025: Well, we/they did it again! This time we'd given without hesitation 6 stars for the overall quality & especially for the combo Food/Service/Atmosphere if it were an option.
- premises renovated, logically crowded, especially on week-ends but everything is perfectly managed & taken care of;
- previous overall already 5 stars dinner experience even better now;
- been taken care personnally by the delightful Ayu & her teammates;
- even the owner Spiro honoured us with his touching presence to pay his respects on this birthday occasion;
- & so on, & so on...
One cannot ask for more than that...
Previously:
Overall, an absolutely delightful dinner experience on the occasion of wife's birthday (20+ years together). We enjoyed everything: the meal quality & freshness, the ambience, the value for the price, etc.
The service was top quality (greatly improved from an already high quality one a year ago).
We'd love to visit again. We'd highly recommend it as a nice place to go with friends, family, or a partner.
Psst! A friendly tip for an optimal dinner experience like ours: do try to obtain to be taken care by the waitress named Ayu who was simply amazing, friendly & caring, she'll most certainly make you feel cozy & at home (but an improved one, especially the cuisine & the service) …
We were a big group, which is often difficult for the wait staff, but they served us efficiently & in a very friendly way. The food came out quickly & was really good quality.

Review for Casa Greque - Lasalle (Newman Location)
This isn't my first time dining at Casa Greque in Lasalle on Newman, & once again, it did not disappoint. The place is always busy, which speaks volumes about its popularity & consistent quality.
What truly stands out is the exceptional team led by the owner, Spiro. After observing their professionalism, calm demeanor, & courteous service, even during peak hours, I have to say, this is a dream team any restaurant would be lucky to have.
From the warm welcome at the front host stand, to the attentiveness of the waiters & waitresses, all the way to the cooks in the kitchen working tirelessly behind the scenes, the dedication of the entire staff is truly admirable.
Despite the rush, they manage to greet every guest warmly, serve dishes in an impressively short time, & maintain top-notch service throughout. The food, as always, is excellent.
Highly recommend Casa Greque for anyone looking for great food, quick service, & a team that truly cares.
Decided to give Casa Grec another try for their Friday lunch special, & honestly, I left disappointed. While most spots offer lunch deals until 3 p.m., which was convenient, that's about the only positive thing I can say.
The vibe? Dead. Aside from a few folks over 65, the place felt lifeless. What used to be a charming touch-the basket of warm bread & butter-has now been swapped for hard, weirdly toasted garlic bread that tasted stale & uninspired.
We started with their complimentary soup, which is supposed to be chicken noodle. What we got was a creamy, dill-heavy concoction that didn't resemble chicken noodle in taste or appearance. Just… no.
I ordered the shrimp special. While the salad dressing is still a hit (it's the one thing they've consistently done right), the rest of the plate fell flat. The shrimps were tiny-like laughably small. Presentation? Nonexistent. Across the street at au Vieux Duluth , they serve shrimp twice the size, & their portions (salad, rice, potatoes) are far more generous!!!!!!
Let's talk about the calamari. We ordered it as an add-on & regretted it instantly. It was rubbery, flavorless, & served with a cheap cocktail sauce you'd expect from a frozen shrimp ring. We decided to pack it up to go, but the smell was so foul in the car-like actual rotten fish-that we had to pull over, find a garbage can, & toss it out. Zero stars. Do not eat that.🤮
My boyfriend's steak? A total joke. We asked for medium, got a dry, rubbery well-done mess that looked like it had been through war. He barely touched it. There sauce/ gravy is good & that the only reason we / me chose this place to eat in the first place.
This used to be a place my mother-in-law would order from for New Year's. I've told her to stop-there's just no quality here anymore. The ambiance isn't inviting, the food isn't worth the price (I paid $19.95 for four mini shrimp), & I wouldn't consider it for celebrations, date nights, or honestly anything.
I've been a Yelp Elite for 12 years & I review restaurants professionally-this one is a hard pass. Maybe it was something 20 years ago, but it's definitely not it today.
For over two decades this Casa Grecque location has been consistent in its quality & service. It is our family's go to place for a last minute meal or to celebrate a birthday or event. The private room for gatherings is a great option for a bit a privacy . You always know what you are going to get. The the staff look you in the eye & are friendly. The management make you feel special. This is a family place where you are welcomed. It is not pretentious, & like many places when you ask for something you aren't treated like they are doing you a favour, but that its a pleasure to have you.
