| - We came here trying to branch out from our dependence on Alexandros. Come on, Messini's! One of our friends said he was sure he had picked the right rental when he heard a Messini's was opening up just around the corner. People love it!
We just walked in on a weekday earlier this summer and there was no line-up. That said, the patio was open, so the place would probably be full in the winter.
We really, really liked the baked Greek chips. We liked the chip fries instead of straight fries, and we loved the baked texture. If you're two people, just order one. I wish the waitress was brave enough to warn us we were ordering waaaaaaay too much food. They gave us a box to take home. I enjoyed the fries inside the pita. Fun.
The prices were pretty good. Service was friendly and nice. The place is kind of dated, but that's not a big deal (especially considering our preferred option is Alexandros). You're not paying for the decor here.
But we couldn't get over our pork gyros. The meat was dry, maybe too lean, and too charred in a few places. The portions were comically enormous, but considering we weren't that into our gyros, the amount actually turned into a negative.
