el greco

On Friday, January 20th, FOX viewers of "Kitchen Nightmares" can watch celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay visit the West Campus area in an attempt to modernize and save El Greco, the sometimes lauded but long-troubled Greek restaurant near UT.

There's one problem, though: El Greco appears to have already shut their doors for good.

I’d heard good things about El Greco Greek Taverna, right beside Mangia’s new location, from several people.

“Great desserts,” they told me. “Charming service from kindly old Mediterranean women.” Well, what’s not to love about that?

Owner James Konstantinindas had just gotten home from El Greco restaurant on 31st and Guadalupe when his security company called to tell him that glass was broken and police were on their way to the restaurant.
