| - I live down the road and went here during the weekly lunch hour and had the gyro special with fries, a drink, and an order of falafel. I give them 1 star because middle eastern cuisine is by far my favorite, even with mediocre food I can be satisfied enough to finish my meal, but I did not finish any of what I wasted $14 on. Everything tasted sour, old, and/or poorly seasoned. The falafel were overcooked and too garlicky, typically I'm a garlic fiend, but it was bitter burned garlic that I could taste. The tahini tasted like spoiled yogurt. I'm not sure what part of the gyro was bad but it tasted sour as well the meat was flavorless and the tzatziki again tasted like sour yogurt with a ton of onion powder and dill. I was not impressed. I had three bites of everything except the fries and called it quits. The guy taking my order was also rushing me so much that I could barely get the words out of my mouth before he was trying to grab my card, and I almost forgot that I was craving falafel in the first place. The french fries were good, so for that they get the one star. If anyone can recommend a decent or really good middle eastern restaurant in the area I would appreciate it, I am still getting to know the Phoenix area!
