"We were in the mood for Mediterranean cuisine and decided to pop in for lunch, table for 2 please. Free parking available round the building perimeter. Interior is a little dated, but clean. A few other tables were full with diners seemingly enjoying their meals and company. Our server kindly took our order shortly after being seated. We ordered a gyro pita and falafel pita with a side of greek fries (fries with oregano and feta). The ingredients were fresh, food was temperature perfect tasted great, and the pitas were amazing. Im not sure if they're made on site but they were so fresh! An unassuming quaint little spot serving fresh, well seasoned food for breakfast, lunch and dinner with friendly service at very reasonable prices! We're definitely looking forward to a return visit."

"Ava was a great server. She obviously likes what she's doing. Great recommendations. This is by far the best Greek food I have had. And I married into a Greek family (do not tell my wife I said that). The restaurant was decorated nicely and the portions were massive. Enough that we took home "lunch" for the next day. And the Greek rice. If you don't try the Greek rice, you're missing out. It's a"

"The gyro was large and tasted good although it could have used a little more tzatziki sauce. The fries were average at best. The service was excellent."

"Our gyro's were so good, the lamb was tender and the veggies fresh. Large portions, will definitely return! Even though the service was bad, I'm still giving 5 stars and recommend because the food was great. Would've been nice to have our drinks refilled, extra napkins, and a little more sauce, but the waiter disappeared for the entire dinner. We understand it's hard to find good help. Also forgot our salads."
