Customer Reviews
Loved the Fat Greek gyro. Would definitely go again. We had with a Greek salad, that was good. The pita itself was excellent- which should be tablestakes but you’d be surprised. Could have used a little more feta in the salad. Definitely get the fat sauce if you can. Staff was very friendly and food was ready pretty quickly. They do a brisk takeout business it seems. Counter service only.
Like any town we've had a local ζαχαροπλαστείο for years, but recently this restaurant opened next door. It's delicious, some of the best Greek food around. The gyros are spectacular, the salads tasty, and don't skip the french fries with fat sauce. We also enjoyed the spanikopita dinner, which we ordered with grilled vegetables.
This was my go to Greek restaurant until this week. The vegetables were delicious but each of the 3 meats I ordered were dry and tasteless. Usually the meat comes off the spit nice and moist. My meat looked like it was chopped into tiny pieces and overcooked- at lunchtime. This isn't usual, but I will look for a new Greek restaurant
excellent service, first and foremost. the food was great and a great value relative to the other Greek places i've had. I had a chicken gyro, which had their signature sauce on it. Initially, I was reluctant because my mind was set on tzatziki, but I would highly recommend at least giving the FAT SAUCE a shot. I didn't regret it it was nice they had a kid option, too, and it wasn't just your typical chicken fingers (though they had those as well) so my kid could enjoy Greek food, just a smaller plate of it (and priced appropriately).
Gyros were great and the meats are very good. Really hits the spot if you want reasonably priced Greek food. They are still figuring it out since we went during the soft launch but the wait times are quite long. Would definitely come back! Some menu items like loukoumades for instance are not available yet!
