The best chicken with tzatziki sauce in a pita. Pretty good size too! Nice wait staff and large menu with reasonable prices.
Breakfast are spectacular there I've never had a bad one . from hot cereals the Grits are always spectacular and fresh. Lunches are pretty good and reasonably priced.
Overall good experience. Good wait staff service, but the kitchen was a bit slow for a Saturday afternoon and not very busy.
Luckily I had catching up to do w/ an old friend.
3 stars because the service was excellent. The food was meh. If I lived in the area I probably wouldn't go back unless it was the only place open. I went here because the yelp page gives the impression that it's a Greek restaurant(see the name). But it's kind of a low end dive diner on the first floor of a low end hotel in an industrial neighborhood. I got a souvlaki sandwich. It was anything but. Sliced bland grilled chicken totally devoid of any Greek influences. The middle eastern appetizer platter was mediocre and the stuffed grape leaves were wildly mediocre. My gut told me to leave as soon as I pulled into the parking lot, and again when I walked in. I won't say the food was terrible, just not what I expected. It's just a bare bones diner giving off the vibe of a Greek restaurant that quickly withers away once you taste the food. Again, the service was immaculate. Everyone working was very nice and did a great job.
The food was delicious and service was great. We were able to spend time over coffee without being rushed. I would definitely recommend this place.
