The Feisty Greek | Our Story
Two brothers, one table
Kostas and George Tiglianidis grew up Greek, and they cook that way too. The Feisty Greek is their Norwood restaurant — family-owned since 2011, built on real ingredients and no shortcuts.
Before The Feisty Greek
Kostas and George spent 17 years running their family's restaurant before opening their own. When they were ready, they didn't start from scratch — they started from experience.
Founded in Norwood
The Feisty Greek opened on August 15, 2011, at 38 Vanderbilt Avenue in Norwood, MA — family-owned and operated from day one.
The details matter
Pork shoulder is marinated using a recipe refined with a visiting chef from Greece, stacked on a vertical spit, and shaved to order — handcut fries tucked right into the pita.
Lively food, lively people
Phantom Gourmet called it "a casual family restaurant run by a big, crazy, contentious Greek family" — and the brothers wear that as a badge of honor. Great food, genuine service, and a welcoming room keep people coming back.
