Moussaka : Minced meat with aubergines, cheese and bechamel sauce
Saganaki : Basically fried cheese, but tastes better than it sounds
Stifado : Meat stew (don't be surprised if its served cold) - I had an octopus stifado with plums on Alonissos a few years back and it was delicious
Kleftiko : Very slow cooked (usually) lamb which falls off the bone and melts in your mouth
Dolmades : Vine leaves stuffed with rice
Spanakopita : Spinach pie
Tzatziki : Garlic, cucumber and yoghurt
and, of course,
Souvlaki : Meat and veg on a stick (if you wrap the chicken pieces in bacon before grilling, its so much nicer)

First of all lets get this straight the turks stole Baklava along with the Syrians. it is as Greek as it comes. Some good greek delacasys are Pastichio= ground meat with noodles and dough on top, hilopites= greek flat noodles, melamakarona= a greek cookie dipped in honey and nuts, spanakopita= spinach and feta chese with Filo dough, Tiropita= Chese pita, lamb, rabbit, deer,
little small fried fish, and vasilopita= a sugary cake made for New Years with a coin in the middle. Whoever gets the part with the coin get good luck for the rest of the Year!

Hello dear!
Since you ask for famous, but local Greek foods, I would say: artichokes, with fresh peas with egglemon sauce!
Lamp pie
Staffed grape leaves (I prefer the ones without meat)
And I could go forever!

Greeks eat more pasta than italians, believe it or not.
Imam Baildi, and Kokoretsi are two of my favs.
