| - The first several times I ate here was after a night of drinking, and let's be honest, almost everything tastes better after you've been out drinking all night. They are open until 4 AM on Friday & Saturday night, so there is usually at least a handful of people in there shortly after last call. Upon visiting for dinner, and completely sober may I add, I can say this is not just a late night spot to fill your belly before you slip into your alcohol induce slumber.
This is essentially a take out place so I won't hold it against them that they only have 3 (possibly 4) bar height tables with 2 bar height chairs per table. They are basically there so you have somewhere to sit while you wait for your order, not necessarily so that you can eat-in.
The menus is rather diverse. You have your choice of gyro style: 1.) regular (tomato, onion & tzatziki sauce OR 2.) dirty (onion, yellow mustard & fries). I'll admit I've never been adventurous enough to try the dirty option. They offer your classic lamb/beef as well as marinated pork, marinated chicken, marinated charcoal-grilled pork, marinated charcoal-grilled chicken, Greek seasoned country pork sausage, ground beef & a vegetarian option. As you can see your options are plentiful. They also offer a jumbo gyro which is double the meat, but trust me you don't need it unless you haven't eaten for days. They also have something called the Mount Olympus, which is described as "The Ultimate Gyro" & will run you $20. It frightens me to imagine the immensity of this beast of a gyro. They also offer a wide selection of hummus, dips, salads, entrees/platters, side dishes & desserts. The only dish other than their gyros that I can vouch for are their dolmades (seasoned rice wrapped in grape leaves), and they are delicious.
The prices are very reasonable, $5 for any style/choice of meat gyro. The portions are huge, several pieces of meat always sneak out of my pita & onto my plate. The quality of the food is excellent & the service is ultra quick.
