| - I gotta say, this little place didn't get the name 'Best Gyros' for nothin' - truth be told, they most likely named themselves this, but the public surely won't disagree! To attest to their greatness, as I entered the doors and mulled over the menu, I offhandedly mentioned to the cashier that I'd need a minute since I'd never been... two random people were in there, separate from one another, and both chimed in "You'll love it" One even added, "everything on the menu is good... you can't go wrong!"
So, being the Plain Jane I was this evening, I opted for a Jr. Chicken Gyro with added feta, SOLID choice for 50 cents, and some zucchini fries, because hey - I was feeling both healthy and bad greasy vibes. Signature move for me on the weekend.
Zucchini fries were $4.99. Piping hot! Served with a delectable creamy ranch. Strong amount of zucchini to breading ratio, and nice lengthy sticks rather than hunks or chunks. The breading itself was crispy and light, not too fattening feeling, but not super thin like some tempura battered styles I have had.
The Jr. Chicken Gyro had some nice chopped veggies atop a pleasantly seasoned sliced grilled chicken breast, with added feta for delish robust flavor, and a creamy cucumber sauce to tie it altogether. I must say the pita these toppings floated amidst was the deal sealer. Warm, fresh, doughy, not too thick, not too thin... one perfect piece of pita, friends!
Go check this place out if you're in the Northfield area. It may seem like an awkward location, across from a gas station and next to a Subway, with interesting light up signs and maybe not the best outside or interior decor, but it's not about appearance with this smashing joint. Added Bonus you may ask? It's open for breakfast for you early birds, but also nice and late for us night owls! Fulfilling the hearts of many, BG!
