The latest CharlotteFive Readers\u2019 Choice poll is honing in on the best Greek food in Charlotte, and the results are all up to you.<\/p>\n

This quest started off by asking you to nominate your favorite Greek restaurants<\/a>, where the area\u2019s best gyros, salads, baklava and other treats are up for grabs.<\/p>\n

Next, your votes whittled the field of contenders to the Top 10 picks, then down to the Top 5.<\/p>\n

Now, we\u2019re whittling the field to the Top 2.<\/p>\n

As with past CharlotteFive Readers\u2019 Choice contests<\/a>, each restaurant must have a location in the Charlotte area \u2014 which includes nearby communities \u2014 and have fewer than 20 locations nationwide. (That shut out Showmars and Taziki\u2019s Mediterranean Cafe, because they\u2019re popular enough to have so many restaurants.)<\/p>\n
