| - Long overdue update: King of Gyros (KOG) is as good as it gets IMHO for fast casual Greek food; when out and about KOG is always my pick for tasty, healthy choices served up by friendly folks who treat customers like royalty! Even when I dropped my lunch in the car park yesterday, I knew it would be delicious as always, and it survived pretty much intact because they pack it well
(I'm quite sure they would have replaced it, but my legendary clumsiness is no need to waste food:)
Favorite menu items: chicken Souvlaki platter - a generous portion of marinated, grilled poultry - with their smooth and tangy hummus, and refreshing Greek Salad; the falafel which is never greasy sporting a pillowy, well seasoned interior; the dolmades adorned with quality olive oil and a bright lemon splash which brings those delicate grape leaves to life; and finally the lentil soup which I eat whenever I can, the spices add a warmth and depth I crave; their hot, fluffy pita is a perfect accompaniment. Scott thoroughly enjoys the gyros which are carved to order from a proper spit and is a fan of both the rice and fries, the aforementioned Greek salad and dolmades: he worked for years in a Greek diner in NY and is therefore picky about this cuisine, and loves it.
KOG is family owned and operated, service is always with a smile, so welcoming. The kitchen is open, so you can watch your food being prepared, the dining area is clean, they offer beer, wine, soft drinks (bottles and fountain) and unsweetened fresh brewed iced tea which I love. At lunchtime they are very busy with local workers chowing down on reasonably priced and quick, delicious eats; ordering in advance can save some time.
Wish: Avgolemono soup (I have been lobbying for them to make it for a year, but can't resist their bomb lentil soup!)
Long live the King!!!
