Greece has some "traditional" dishes; briam, stuffed peppers/tomatoes, mousaka, grilled lamb and chicken. Fish dishes are popular, particularly on the islands. As with many countries, the Greeks have "imported" foreign dishes - "fast" food is popular in Greece.
There are a number of things which traditionally affect how Greeks cook:
It is very hot in the summer; houses rarely used to have ovens - people used to "share" the baker's oven. In fact the Greek for "baker's shop" is "oven".
The Greek's sincerely believed that eating hot food is bad for you. The Greeks are also the longest living race in Europe, so there may be something in that.
Fuel is quite expensive in Greece.
Little food used to be imported, so local, seasonal ingredients were the basis of most dishes.
