Ocala-News.com first reported the construction of the new Great Greek Mediterranean Grill in April 2024.

The restaurant is currently offering customers the opportunity to win free gyros for a year. It is open seven days a week, from 10:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Sunday through Thursday, and until 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.

There are around five dozen of the restaurants scattered throughout the nation. That includes 13 Great Greek Mediterranean Grill restaurants in the state of Florida, with another on the way in Stuart.

The restaurant’s menu is filled with traditional Greek dishes, including tzatziki, hummus, dolmades, and spanakopita, which is a spinach and feta cheese puff pastry.

In addition to the Greek restaurant, over the past five years, Market Street at Heath Brook has seen the addition of Crumbl, which is next door to Great Greek, as well as Eggs Up Grill, Shuckin’ Shack, Zuzu Ramen, and Pigtails and Crewcuts,
