| - I was literally craving this place when my coworker told me he'd bought a falafel here for his lunch yesterday. I was super excited to have a Greek spot near my job, so of course I couldn't wait to go here on my lunch break the next day despite my coworker telling me his falafel sandwich was extremely dry. Really it came down to this place or bandaid in the buritto Filibertos next door...easy decision right.
So I rushed here on my lunch break, and when I walked in this young guy bussing tables near the back corner asked how he could help me. I felt he was rushing but whatever, I told him I needed a minute. With a short lunch, and this being my first visit, I decided to just order pita and hummus, after all you can't screw up hummus...can you?
Well they did, because this place sucked! The pita was extremely thin and dry, and tasted kind of like those stale communion crackers I ate at church growing up. Seriously the hummus had no flavor at all. With Athenos brand hummus being one of my favorites you would think I'm easy to please in this regard,but I cringed at each bite, and throwing food away that I'd bought while super hungry was not an option.
I should've questioned their authenticity when another customer ordered a burger and fries...because really you would NEVER do that at an authentic Greek spot that was worth the money and the experience. The second eyebrow raise came when I realized the cooks were Mexican. Don't judge me, you think the same thing about Panda Express.
Anyhow, I would never go here again, it's disgusting flat out, their customer service skills are well, like their pita...tasteless and besides I'd rather get the real deal at a better price and much better cultural experience. If you don't know the Greek experience I'm referring to then maybe you're a regular here haha kidding :-D
