2012: hosted by the Greek Orthodox church in town, the LVGreek Fest provided enough music/noise and food to last quite a while. We ended up here Sunday night and the place was still hopping. Getting through the entrance queue was pretty smooth and all of the food queues in which we waited moved fairly quickly as well. We were not overjoyed to pay a $7 cover per person -- what do you get for that?? -- and the food, while good, was overpriced. Not a surprise, but reality bites as they say. Our Greek fries were yummy and were enthusiastically consumed, our souvlaki was good but a wee bit bland, and the loukoumades (fried dough balls covered in a honey syrup) were sweet and hot and heavy!\n\nLots of vendors selling their wares (jewelry, oils, etc.), including Verizon? Didn't know they're Greek. ;)\n\nParking was crazy: if you were one of those blessed by the Greek deity, then you snagged a parking spot right outside the church. Sadly, we are mere mortals who were not touched by Zeus, so we parked on a residential side street. (After eating our Greek goods, we were more than happy to burn off a few calories on the way out of the festival!)\n\nIt's a fun time for sure. Just expect to spend a bit of time finding a parking space and a lot of money on admission/food/drinks.
