"It saddens me to leave a review with so few stars. HISTORY I have eaten at all the TROY GREEK locations simply because of the quality, value and service. ALAMEDA was my 1st favorite hands down. No frills, efficient, simple, great quality food prepared by super efficient friendly people. MARTINEZ LOCATION I love the idea of a legit restaurant for TROY but this location needs help. FOOD 2 Troy salads, 1 with chicken, 1 with beef and their drink special Negroni. Salad arrived DRENCHED in dressing covered in a large amount of nicely cook but OVERLY SALTED CHICKEN, beef was perfect. After 2 bites of chicken, I moved all of it to one side and ate the salad. I didn 't send it back cuz I was hungry. The DRINK didn 't arrive until half way thru the meal because she 's a little backed up. (The restaurant wasn 't busy at all Monday night in downtown Martinez)!AMBIANCE OK this place is showing its age. The bar has peeling faux wood paper (or something that needs looking after) the walls replete with chipped paint and scrapes and it 's generally feels aged. There 's various pictures scattered in the wall from the old country which gives it a kind of cool authentic vibe if it weren 't for the lousy R B music blaring Boyz ll Men or Ginuwine all the while competing with music from the kitchen. When will restaurants realize the music lighting play a huge part in the ambiance of the experience for their patrons?SERVICE our waitperson was friendly, checking in frequently. Although neglecting to get the cocktails to us (the highest price margin in the restaurant to the customer) was a mistake. SUMMARY I think I 'll give TROY a break and let them catch up with some of the other places in town. I 'm sad cause this was truly a star. I have high hopes for their return to glory."
