Greeks are legendary for their place in the restaurant business. Life in the villages of Greece revolves around hospitality. Guests are treated like family and shop owners take pride in always offering their very best. My legacy in the restaurant business begins with my Papouli (my grandfather), who brought his heritage to America when he started his first restaurant in San Antonio, Texas in 1911.
In Greece, papoulis and yia yias (grandfathers and grandmothers) are revered by their families for their wisdom and hearty spirit. That's why I'm so honored that the legacy of my grandfather's restaurant was passed, to my father, Dan Anthony, and then on to me. Now, I'm carrying the Anthony family tradition into it's third generation with a new dining concept that honors our family's heritage and shares our spirit of hospitality.
Papouli's Greek Grill is dedicated to all the grandfathers who passed their legacies on to their children and grandchildren to build lasting family traditions.
