First time trying this place and I'll definitely come back. When ordering, the cashier was very nice and told us that the beef & lamb gyro was one of the popular dishes. So we got that and the greek fries to share. We dined in and the restaurant itself is very clean. We also got our food rather quickly. The food was very good! I'm excited to try more items on the menu!
Check my review history, I post more 5 stars than not. I try to be open minded when trying a new place. But a couple weird things happened.
I ordered take out from here. I got a gyro plate with the upgraded fries to Greek fries for an extra $1, a chicken pita, and a gyro kids meal, and paid $4 extra to get double gyro so the kids can split it.
Maybe I’m unlucky but more times than not, when I get takeout from somewhere I always get something wrong with my order, so I check it in the restaurant before I go home. I noticed they forgot my extra serving of gyro on the kids meal, so they happily gave me the extra side. Great, that’s fine. At least I didn’t drive home and then notice it. But there were about 5 guys back in the kitchen and all of them were STARING at me, like the whole time I was talking to the nice lady at the register, like a solid 30 seconds of these guys staring at me. It was so bizarre.
I get home and my wife points out they forgot the fries in her chicken Pita. Oh well, we just grabbed some from the kids and stuffed it in there. But there’s nothing worse than getting the order wrong in my book
Now the food, maybe I’m just spoiled by Troy in DT Martinez, but that gyro shouldn’t be called gyro. I felt like I was eating SPAM. Which hey I love me some SPAM, but not when I’m expecting Gyro. It says it’s a Lamb/Beef combo but I didn’t taste any lamb. My wife says missing fries aside, her Chicken Pita was good. I’ve come to find you can’t expect good fries when getting takeout because it’s soggy by the time you get home. Not their fault, but the Greek fries were pretty good with the added feta, chives and garlic.
All in all, it was “meh”. It’s ok food, overpriced as everything is nowadays, 4 stars, down to 3 because of the glaring workers and forgetting the fries and extra Gyro.
Never been or heard of this place. Had to stop by and try it. We ordered Greek Fries and Beignets. The fries were amazing: feta, garlic, and greens onions with a side of dipping sauce. They came out fresh and I love how the feta tasted with that fry. I also really liked the Beignet’s, it looked light and airy but it was filling (maybe not put so much syrup). That was all we ordered that day, but we’ll be sure to try other things on the menu when we come back!!!
