When the world comes to Los Angeles in the summer of 2028, USC's iconic Row will be at the center of it all. Greek Grub is the private chef and food service company that has called The Row home since 2011 — serving fresh, honest, chef-prepared meals across 11 fraternity and sorority houses. Now, as these houses welcome corporate hosts, international delegations, and VIP guests for the Olympics, we're ready to do what we've always done: keep your house fed, fueled, and taken care of.

Why Greek Grub

The unfair advantage.

Already Here

We've cooked in these kitchens for 17 years. We know the layouts, the equipment, the suppliers, and the neighborhood. No setup time. No learning curve. Just great food from day one.

Licensed & Certified

Greek Grub holds all required LA County food service licenses and health certifications to operate commercially in Row properties. Most outside vendors don't — and can't.

Stress-Free Service

Forget fighting Olympic traffic for a restaurant reservation. Your dedicated chef prepares every meal on your schedule, in your house, customized to your group's tastes and dietary needs.

The Olympic Reality

Why On-Site Matters During the Games

Los Angeles will welcome over 15 million visitors during the 2028 Games. USC's campus is the official Olympic Media Village, and the Coliseum — just steps from The Row — will host the opening ceremony and track & field events.

The surrounding neighborhood will see unprecedented traffic, demand, and congestion. Restaurants will have weeks-long waitlists. Delivery apps will be unreliable. Having a dedicated, on-site private chef isn't a luxury during the Olympics — it's a necessity.

Brian Johnston

Founder & Executive Chef

Greek Grub is a family-owned operation founded by Brian Johnston, a classically trained Executive Chef with a culinary degree and extensive background in fine dining hotels and restaurants. Brian started Greek Grub in 2011 after noticing a lack of professionally trained chefs in the Greek system. Today, Greek Grub brings restaurant-quality meals and full kitchen management to chapter houses across California.

When the world's biggest stage comes to our backyard, we'll be ready. Same kitchens. Same dedication. Olympic-level hospitality.
