| - At the time of writing this review, Zikiz is a relatively new fast-casual Greek/Mediterranean restaurant that opened in the Southwest part of town. Think Chipotle, but for Gyros and Salads.
They follow the Chipotle formula to a tee: you pick your dish (wrap, salad, or bowl), your protein (falafel, chicken, gyro, salmon), then add toppings and dressing. Aside from this, Zikiz also offers regular gyros and gyro plates.
Getting to the good stuff, the food is really good! The gyro meat is tasty, and there's something about their tzaziki sauce that I find particularly addicting. They also have a variety of French fries that range from normal to garlic herb.
I was excited to try the garlic herb fries, but because the place is still relatively new and was trying to get everything squared away, they had a lack of efficiency in their execution, which resulted in a longer than expected wait time, and my order being partially incorrect (I received regular fries instead of the garlic herb, not realizing until I got home).
Overall, the food is great, and it's nice to have a Greek/Mediterranean restaurant on this side of town. I think once they've been open a bit longer, they'll have the workflow ironed out much more smoothly, creating a better customer experience. But that aside, it's definitely worth a visit!
