| - This is my first review here on yelp, i've been really hesitant to leave reviews because i can tend to be critical but i have to set record straight here after seeing all these positive high ratings on this place.
I live in the neighborhood and am a sucker for local business owners and love to contribute to everything local but i've been here twice wanting to like this place cuz its so close to me but i was sadly disappointed. My first visit i got the gyro which should be the staple of any greek joint and the avgolemono soup. First the gyro, i'm not sure if i'm just used to portions at gyro spots on the east coast but what i got here was a joke..... Everything was all chopped up and mixed together??? And very small amount of meat. I'm typically used to getting gyros with nice big shavings spilling out of the pita..... Here you could take the whole pita and practically envelope the contents..... 4 big bites max and you are done. For the price, no fries just gyro its super weak. Next the soup...... Rice not cooked, barely any chicken not worth the time, again poor execution.
Second visit/chance i had people in town from back east itching for a greek salad, for some reason i came back..... I guess i wanted to give a local business a 2nd chance to impress. So i went for the greek salad thinking how can you mess that up right?? Well guess what the salad was more pitiful then the gyro..... First issue.... Who charges $8 for a salad and uses mostly iceburg lettuce!! Strike one, next there was shredded carrots in it, probaby from the pre-pak iceburg salad mix?? Strike two....... Lastly they put one chinsy little salad dressing in for the salad! What a joke. Others had ordered soup despite my warning, i tried that again..... Very inconsistent to the soup i had, even less chicken.
Overall pricey for what you get, won't be back.... You can catch me being happy going a little farther for the guy up the street.
