Our Mom Eugenia Greek Restaurant

There used to be only one. Now there are three Our Mom Eugenia Greek restaurants. When we lived on Capitol Hill we stumbled across the store in Great Falls and visited many times before we moved to northern Virginia over four years ago. We loved the ride along the GW Parkway for lunch. The Greek restaurant in our neighborhood closed during the pandemic. At least we still have this option. We have never gone back for indoor dining, but we oftentimes order pick up and enjoy taking the 25 minute ride on a Sunday afternoon - more often in the summer months than winter because it’s still light outside. We always get enough food and varieties to last about three days. We always get the lemon soup, spanakopita, keftedakia, kotopoulo souvlaki, moussaka, mixed vegetables, and hand cut fries. Sometimes we get the cod bites. A little bit of everything plus a salad at home make for a great meal. If we have any leftovers we also mix that in to stretch it out. So rather than get full entrees we prefer tasting a bit of this and that. Aside from Moby Dick Persian food this is our second favorite restaurant. Let’s hope it stays around.
