Kostene's Grill

I really like the food here! The gyros are my fave!

Nothing special, ok food, good for a quick lunch

I haven't been to Kostene's before so I have no reference to compare Anne's to it. Anne's is a change of business to Kostene's. They serve a mixture of Greek fast food (gyros) and some typical American fare (burgers, salads, etc). Anne's also has slot machines (if that's your thing).

First time visiting today. I phoned in my order some minutes ahead (salad, double hamburger, and a gyro sandwich -- all without pitas or buns since). The guy who took my order quickly realized I was on a low crab diet. I went in to pick up the food afterwards. Total wait time was about 10-15 minutes.

Gyro meat was well done but lacks that tenderness and moistness that I like. Onions were not grilled but freshly sliced along with the tomato. The double hamburger was indeed made with 1/4 pound patties and looked homemade. It was quite densely packed so a good sign they are homemade patties. Otherwise it was a rather bland patty. The salad was very fresh, combination of sliced tomatoes, bell peppers, and iceberg lettuce. Crisp and refreshing.

Suggestions for a better food experience: season the beef patties, grill the onions, and maybe use meat with more fat so it stays moist and tender.

The staff is very friendly, great customer service. The over all quality of the food is decent. I think there's lots of Room for improvement. I ordered the half chicken with Greek potatoes. The seasoning or the process in how the food is being cooked is very commercial, I don't think it's worth what they're charging. Especially compared to other restaurants. Plus I really couldn't enjoy my time there because the host would not stop asking me questions and requesting feedback on my experience and it was almost relentless. I didn't enjoy it whatsoever. I don't think you will be disappointed if you come here but there are certainly better options.

Got stuck here overnight. Jorge is a fantastic person. Got a terrific meal, exactly the way I wanted it, but again, great food is not so great without great people. Thanks, my man, Jorge! It was closing time. He restarted the grill for me, and made my night
10 stars!
