Plaka Grill first opened on Lawyers Road just off Maple Avenue in Vienna in 2007 and is known for its Greek specialties including wraps, souvlaki, soups, salads and more. One of he most popular items on the menu is the Plaka Gyro which stuffs french fries, slow-roasted marinated pork, tomatoes and onions into a pita.

Palak Grill plans to open at 513 West Broad Street in early 2015.
