| - I had high hopes for this place.
Since we've been in Phoenix we've tried a number of middle eastern restaurants. None so far are up to the standard we are acostomb to.
The counter woman was very nice and helpful.
The restaurant is very basic but clean.
The food however was the disappointment..
We ordered a gyro & fries, a chicken Sharma & fries, and a beef pita & fries, humus and bread .
The shwarma tasted pretty good, but it was on the thick bread usually reserved for gyros. The beef pita, was also on the gyro bread, but was kinda nasty. We tried giving the meat to the dogs but they wouldn't touch it.
Oddly enough, the gyro was delicious and overflowing with meat.
All the fries were soggy, but that is probably because they are shoestring fries in to-go boxes.
The humus was watery and had a thick covering of vegetable oil instead of a drizzle of olive oil.
The pita bread, at extra cost, was 1 piece of gyro bread.
So.. if you're looking for a quick, inexpensive meal, this place will do. If you're looking for an authentic middle East meal, keep looking.. I am..
