Fast-casual Little Greek, now numbering 19 locations, conducted research and validated that most consumers are not familiar with Greek food. Since chicken is a familiar protein, the restaurant chain is emphasizing it to build customer traffic, then educate about Greek cuisine. A grilled chicken salad, one of the most popular entree salads, is a smart way to start.
