These are the best 10 Greek restaurants in Charlotte. Which is your favorite?

We’re on a mission to find the best Greek food in Charlotte, and we need your help.

The CharlotteFive Readers’ Choice Best Greek Food poll started off with our request for you to nominate your favorite Greek restaurants — the ones with creamy hummus, flavorful gyros and craveable kebobs.

Next, your votes whittled the field of contenders to the Top 10 picks.

This time, we’re looking for the Top 5 Greek restaurants in the Charlotte area.

As with past CharlotteFive Readers’ Choice contests, each restaurant must have a location in the Charlotte area — which includes nearby communities — and have fewer than 20 locations nationwide. (That shut out Showmars and Taziki’s Mediterranean Cafe, because they’re popular enough to have so many restaurants.)

How to vote

Support your favorite restaurant by casting a vote, and feel free to refresh this webpage and make another choice or continue voting for the same spot.

Here’s the schedule for this contest:

• The second round will determine the Top 5. It is now live and will be until noon Monday, June 15.
• The third round will determine the Top 2. It begins shortly after noon Monday, June 15 and will be live until noon Wednesday, June 17.
• The fourth round will determine the winner. It begins shortly after noon Wednesday, June 17 and will be live until noon Friday, June 19.
