What is The Greek Eats & Sweets in Mooresville? It is a locally owned, fast-casual Greek counter at 111 Marketplace Ave, Suite B, in the Shoppes at Morrison, run by two cousins whose family roots are in Greece. The menu is built around handcrafted gyros, build-your-own protein bowls, and a dessert case that earns the "Sweets" in the name. This is a clean directory guide, so there are no scores here, just what is on the menu, what it costs, and the practical details that matter before you order.

What to order at The Greek Eats & Sweets
The gyros are the headline. Each one is handcrafted with lamb-and-beef, pork, chicken, or falafel, served on a 7-inch traditional or whole-wheat pita with tzatziki, tomato, and onion. At opening they ran $11.98, and they are also offered in a mini size if you want a lighter bite. The build-your-own protein bowls work through five steps, so you pick your base, protein, and toppings; they opened at $12.98. If you want the kitchen to decide, the pre-set bowls simplify the ordering.
The rest of the menu fills in around those two anchors: a Village Salad, a Greek salad with dolmades, baby lamb chops, spanakopitakia (the little spinach pies), falafel balls, and sides of lemon potatoes, rice pilaf, dolmades, and hummus. Gluten-free pita is available for the gyro and bowl crowd. And then there are the sweets: baklava, rizogalo (Greek rice pudding), and a baklava cheesecake, which is the order people tend to spot in the case and not skip.
| Menu item | What it is | Opening price |
|---|---|---|
| Handcrafted gyros | Lamb-and-beef, pork, chicken, or falafel on 7-inch pita with tzatziki, tomato, onion | $11.98 |
| Build-your-own protein bowls | Five-step bowls, plus pre-set options | $12.98 |
| Spanakopitakia | Little spinach pies, a classic Greek starter | Starter price |
| Baklava | Honeyed phyllo and nut pastry | Dessert price |
| Baklava cheesecake | The showpiece of the sweets case | Dessert price |
The family behind it: recipes from Greece
The Greek is not a chain dropping into the neighborhood. It is owned and operated by cousins Stavros Basmas and Michael Ntourmas, whose family roots go back to Greece. A big share of the menu is built on family recipes, and the owners import food and beverages from Greece to keep the pantry authentic. The restaurant opened February 18, 2026, and it has settled into the Shoppes at Morrison as the fast-casual Greek option for the whole Brawley School and Williamson corridor.
That local ownership shows in the little things: the imported Greek products, the family-recipe touches, and a menu that stays tight instead of sprawling. It is the kind of opening that fills a real gap, because Mediterranean options in Lake Norman have mostly been spread across a few sit-down kitchens rather than a quick counter you can hit on a weeknight.
The practical rundown
The Greek runs 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily and closes Sundays, per its official Mooresville page, so it is built around lunch and a weeknight dinner pickup. Because it is fast casual, there are no reservations to think about; you order at the counter, online at orderthegreek.com, or through DoorDash and Uber Eats if you want it brought to you. The Shoppes at Morrison has a big shared lot anchored by Harris Teeter, so parking is easy even at peak times, and the counter moves quickly.
Dress code is casual and the pace is quick by design. The counter format makes it an easy call for families, for a post-lake ride home, or for the nights nobody wants a long sit-down service. Call (980) 980-4976 or order ahead online if you want your food ready when you walk in, especially at weekday lunch.
Where it fits in Mooresville's food scene
The Shoppes at Morrison sits at the corner of Brawley School and Williamson roads, on the west side of the lake and a few minutes from the water, which makes The Greek a convenient stop for the neighborhoods along that corridor. The opening rounds out a big year for Mooresville dining; downtown got Deepwell, Vitale Lakeside, Crave Cookies, and the 29 Grill in the same span. If you want more Mediterranean in the area, Habibi Lebanon Bar & Grill in Davidson does Lebanese and Mediterranean sit-down, a short drive across the line.
