Fast-Casual Greek Food Heads to Back Bay

Boston’s capacity for Greek food seemingly has no end. The Trade team of Jody Adams, Eric Papachristos, and Sean Griffing are about to open a Mediterranean-style restaurant called Porto in Back Bay; Adams, Papachristos, and Jonathan Mendez unveiled the fast-casual Saloniki in Fenway in March; and Brendan Pelley is currently finishing out his residency with Pelekasis at Wink & Nod; not to mention Doretta Taverna and Kava Neo-Taverna, both additions to Boston within the last year.

Yet there’s still room for more, and Committee’s Demetri Tsolakis will add to this burgeoning trend with a new fast-casual Greek place in Back Bay, which will be called Gre.Co, The Boston Globe reports. The restaurant will be located at 225 Newbury St., the former Scissors & Pie space, and possible menu items include loukoumades (Greek dumplings), along with assorted slow-cooked items and desserts. Stay tuned for more information.
