The Krazy Greek is a locally owned and operated burger joint on Hole Ave. It is about a five minute drive from La Sierra University or The Galleria at Tyler.

While The Krazy Greek is primarily identified with your typical hamburger stand, they also serve items that you would not normally find on a burger joint’s menu. Items include gyro’s, fried chicken dinner’s, carne asada burritos, tacos, and hot dogs. The food is made fresh to order and is economically priced. Your standard cheese- burger meal will cost no more than $5 with tax. The Krazy Greek’s burgers are also much more hefty than your $7 “Jack in the Crack” meal. The fries at The Krazy Greek are some of the best in the area. They could be classified as “steak fries” and are perfectly crispy and contain the perfect balance of salt.

The service at The Krazy Greek can be a little slow as the kitchen area is small. You will generally wait a bit longer in the drive through than you would at “mickie D’s”. The menu is also more difficult to read as the items are not separated in to the common meal numbers which means the people ordering in front of you will get on your nerves fast if they deliberate for too long before ordering!

The atmosphere of The Krazy Greek would send a priss running for the hills. The tables and booths contain ketchup and sauce stains feel very unsanitary. The floor is dirty and there is no restroom available to customers. This is most definitely one of the restaurants worst attributes and is probably what keeps the restaurant from main stream glory.

I would not recommend taking a date here even for lunch. The best suggestion I can give you if you are eating with someone special is to go through the drive through and eat at home or in the car!
