Greek Corner Pizza

It has only been a few week ago that me and my wife Betty Sue (NO, Make believe name) went riding around in search of what we wanted to eat for dinner. We went down Tom Hill Blvd and actually did not stop by any Mexican restaurant which is a small miracle since Mexican is Betty Sues number one love in life. But I was being stubborn and I did not want Mexican.
Betty Sue: Ok that's fine John, what do you want tonight ?
John : I don't know something different, do you have a taste for anything ?
BS- (Betty Sue is too much to type): Well I was fine with Mexican
John: Fine we will go get Mexican
BS: No NO its ok what are you in the mood for ?


So you can see how the conversation went. I headed past Ton Hill , where every food place in America stands, and headed down Riverside. Wow that's a great choice when looking for food. Lets see, a few gas stations and a few Waffle Houses, and at the bottom S@S.
FAIL
As I head up Pierce Ave I have no idea where I am ending up. By this time BS was just looking out the window and not really saying anything. We get to Pierce and Vineville and I turn right.  Hmm Jim Shaw's on a Saturday night ? No thanks , large line.
Hey how about that building that has been like 4 restaurants in the last 10 years what is it now. Yes that's it
John: Do you want to try this Greek Corner Pizza Place ?
BS: whatever is fine , I said that 45 minutes ago
That is the almost true story of how we ended up at what must be one of Macon's best kept secrets.(or at least it was to me)
Now I will start by saying I am not a huge Greek food fan. I am however a quality food fan, and that is what this food is. We had some sort of garlic bread for an appetizer and it was off the chain good. The pizza was truly amazing and it left us fighting (I won) for the last piece because we just got a small pizza.
I also ordered the chick parm, which is one of my favorites and I think it took two waitresses to carry the plate of food they brought me. It was massive.
Now massive amounts of food is always good, but many times massive does not equal tasty. But that was not true at this place. The chicken was perfectly cooked and seasoned and the pasta was loaded with cheese. Oh my god it was good. And you have to believe this. I could not eat it all and had to take some home.
The desserts looked even better than the main dishes but I had no room left. Everything was very reasonably priced and the service was outstanding.
So the next time you and Betty Sue cant make your mind up on what you want to eat, go to Greek Corner Pizza and I promise you will not be disappointed.
