The food is delicious and the white staff is very nice. We usually get a large cheese pizza and we're very particular about the pizza we get. Spartans pizza is perfect and it's not too greasy. Love coming here. read less

The atmosphere was good and clean. The corner booth was comfortable and semi private feeling. The food was good (4 of us said Good my husband said it was great), portions were a bit small. Ordered potato skins and it had 3 (granted they were bigger potatoes but still 3), wish the waitress had advised that it was so few. Our waitress was very sweet but the whole process seemed a bit longer than needed. Both my daughter and I work and have worked in restaurants so we are a bit critical. Slow service but if you have the time enjoy the comfortable booth and good food read less

My father would say that he had a "whoolie" for a steak grinder and we knew we were going to Spartans. The restaurant was originally across the street from it's current location. We had fun playing songs on the jukeboxes that were at most of the tables. We could play whatever we wanted as long as we played "Sara Smile" by Hall & Oates for my dad.Athan and Toula established the restaurant in 1977 and they were always happy to greet their customers. Even today, Toula still walks around the restaurant to say hello and make sure that everyone is happy. Doesn't seem that long ago when Athan would be outside directing people where to park. As long as he could keep his business thriving, no task ever seemed to small or beneath Athan. He did it all with a smile.Tonight I had my favorite dish on the menu. The Grilled Chicken Platter. Thinly sliced marinated chicken breast grilled and served with fresh tomato slices, feta cheese, greek olives, pepperocini peppers, and I like to substitute coleslaw for the fries. Healthy and Delicious !!!I balanced out the healthy dish with a Troegs IPA. Spartans has a nice beer selection. My wife had the Big Fat Greek Pizza. Onions, feta cheese, greek olives, tomatoes; green peppers, and mozzerella. She loved it.The entire restaurant is nice and recently remodeled to include a banquet room. We prefer the bar side because there's always an energetic vibe on that side. A lot of people around the bar and in the booths having a Great Time. read less

The prices here a perfect, the quality of food is above average, nice atmosphere in both the restaurant and bar side of the restaurant. They offer anything from pizza and Italian dishes, to burgers and wraps. Their salads are large and well worth the money also. I personally come here and grab an appetizer and a drink because of their great variety of appetizers. I get the nachos loaded with chicken. It's amazing every time I get it. You can order from the kitchen until 1 pm on the weekends! The staff is friendly and the management is on the ball. I suggest a stop by with your friends for a casual lunch or dinner. read less

No place is open or their kitchen were closed, called around and stopped into to several local bars/restaurants within the Cheshire, Waterbury, Watertown, Middlebury area and Spartans was it! The bartender told us the kitchen would be closing soon but they would accommodate us and it was well worth it! The nachos were definitely above the rest in the area & their wings were two thumbs up! Our server for now 11pm on Sunday night was super friendly & very helpful packing up our leftovers. If you are in the area and want great food and great drinks with great service give Spartans a try! read less

Luckily I kept driving and came across this little gem. It is a kind of catch all Italian/Greek place that has a little bit of everything. Took a look at the menu and ordered a chopped steak of the "CharGrill" not really expecting that truly delicious added flavor. With that I recieved a salad and bread. When the waitress brought the salad I knew I was in for some big portions. The salad was about the size of some places normal entree salad, but at least double the size of a typical side salad. I ordered blue cheese dressing and have to say a bit disappointing there no real chunks or true flavor of blue cheese. Salad was fresh and all components were crispy..pretty impressive for an end of the day kind of thing. Now onto the entree. The portion size was HUGE. The chopped steak easily had to be over a pound. My first thought was oh no big portions tend to equal lower quality. Let me tell you not here. The steak was perfect in cook and imparted the charbroiled flavor as promised. The mashed potatoes were real for sure because they were chunky and everything was seasoned perfectly. So good I went back today for a sub (grinder) this was just a delicious as the dinner. read less

Even when first entering the restaurant, it seemed like a sort of greasy crowd there..But I was starving and it didn't take me long to really get in the rhythm of the place. The menu was simple but substantial. A lot of it very greasy food. This place must go through fryer oil like a KFC in Louisiana during Mardi Gras. I did however find some healthier options and it turned out delicious. We ordered the grilled chicken platter and a rib eye steak. The portions were more than substantial and excellent value for money. The steak was cooked to perfection, which is a rarity for a well-done rib-eye like my dinner mate demands. I stuck to the chicken and there was 3 full chicken breasts on the platter, piles of veggies (i got veg instead of potato), pepperoncini, and a big delicious slice of home-made feta cheese. Best feta I'd ever had. The wine and drinks were also very reasonably priced, and as the night went on the atmosphere got rowdier but more fun, and we headed back to our hotel with our belly's full and happy. Would definitely recommend read less

Our first round of drinks was prompt and our dinner orders were taken quickly. Warm buttered bread was immediatly brought to the table with dinner salads following soon after. Our entrees arrived soon after the salads were consumed. They looked wonderful!! Two of us had the Mousaka, one of us had the Greek salad w/ grilled chicken and lastly the grilled chicken platter. All I can say is, WOW!! The grilled chicken platter (my dish) was simply awesome! My friends all raved about their dishes and there was plenty to take home. Melissa made sure we had another round of cocktails and tall glasses of water throughout. I haven't been to Spartan in years, but, I will definitely come back soon. Well Done, Well Done!! read less
