There’s a new spot to grab Greek food on Speedway.
Santorini Greek Cafe has opened its doors at 2545 E. Speedway Blvd., which can be found in the same strip as The Screamery and across the street from Eegee’s.
On the menu, you’ll find appetizers such as Tzatziki, Fried Calamari, and Skordalia, while a few of the traditional Greek dishes include Braised Lamb, Roasted Chicken, and Soutzoukakia, which is a Greek meatball dish served with rice, fries, or pasta.
The opening comes just a couple of months after Fronimo’s Greek Café closed its doors 25 years after opening up on Speedway. The owners are currently on the hunt for a new location to settle in to.
The restaurant is currently open daily from 11 a.m. – 9 p.m. for either takeout or dine-in.
Santorini Greek Cafe is located at 2545 E. Speedway Blvd. For more information, follow Santorini Greek Cafe on Facebook.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
