- In the fast food category, there are 2 Yiassoo's. One is on South
- Bascom, on the left after you pass The Pruneyard. The other is on
- DeAnza Boulevard in Cupertino, on the left just north of Bollinger
- Road. There's also Falafel's Drive-in on on Steven's Creek east of 880, on
- the left. Don't let the non-descript appearance of it or the neighborhood
- fool you, although I like Yiassoo better.
-
- I remember going to a regular Greek-American restaurant called
- John's-something on Lincoln in Willow Glen. I remember it as mostly
- a "family" restaurant with a few Greek dishes. On the left as
- you go south.
-
- There's Zorba's way south of Yiassoo on Bascom. On the left (natch).
- Never ate there, but there's a negative rule of thumb circulating
- about Greek restaurants named Zorba's.
