| - My wife an I went to My Greek Corner twice this last holiday weekend. On Saturday I had the Gyro platter with Greek rice, seasoned fries, and a salad $8.95. I thought the portions were great for the money. I couldn't finish the salad and fries, and I am a big guy that can pack away some food. The Gyro meat is cut thicker than most places, some pieces as much as a 1/4 inch thick. I really liked this, I was impressed. Also the gyro meat didn't seem as greasy as I have experienced at other Greek places. It was lean and full of flavor. The rice was nice and light, good flavor and tender. The fries were good, but I had asked for the Greek fries with feta but they missed it on the order. I wasn't charged the $.50 for the feta so I didn't mention it. The Greek salad that came with the meal was large and unexpected. i didn't realize the platter came with one. The dressing was very light and could stand a little more flavor. It had large pieces of cucumber (yum) red onion, (thin sliced) and feta cheese. One olive and pepper chiene. All good just need a little more flavor in the dressing. The tzatziki sauce was thicker than most, I liked it since it was easy to spread in the pita pieces with out dripping all over the plate. The pita is AWESOME. Soft, warm, and yummy.
I really liked everything I tried.
The Wife got the chicken gyro with fries. She is not a traditional gyro fan but she really liked the chicken gyro. This says a lot since she agreed to go back again for another one Monday. :) She got the same minus the fries since the gyro is so big she had a hard time finishing it both times and she let some fries go to waste on the first try because she was saving room for her yummy chicken gyro. The portions are great for the price.
The second trip I got the traditional gyro with a Greek salad and a chicken kabob on the side to try. The gyro was just as good as the platter. The chicken kabob meat was moist and tender. I liked it and the wife tried a few bites and she enjoyed it too.
All in all we enjoyed this new spot in Surprise and will be back for more.
