It's a sentence. In Julius Caesar, where it first appeared, Casca tells Cassius and Brutus that Cicero had given a speech in Greek. He says that was very nice, but he had no idea what it was all about because Casca didn't speak Greek. When he says "for my part, it was Greek to me." he means exactly what he says--he didn't understand any of it because he didn't speak Greek.
