| - I went there for lunch on a Friday. I let the waitress know that I hadn't been there and asked for her recommendation. She recommended the chicken dish, but I decide to stick with what I knew and ordered the gyro. After a few minutes, they did bring out some bread with a olives and a couple different spreads. My food didn't take long to come out, and when it did, it was a large plate of gyro meat, fries, cut pieces of pita bread and a ramekin of cucumber sauce and salad. It was a huge platter, and I only ate half of it. It was different than what I was used to, since I didn't expect to have to make it myself. At first, I thought that it was a huge value, as I thought I was ordering the gyro sandwich at $10, but once the bill came, it was actually the $18 gyro platter meal. I wish that the waitress would have asked whether I wanted the sandwich or the platter which seems more suitable for a dinner not a lunch. It was tasty, but I don't think the value is quite there, and the waitress should have clarified which gyro dish I wanted if there are multiple options instead of assuming that I would want the most expensive and least popular item. Typically when you order a gyro, it's already rolled for you in a large pita bread... You don't expect cut up slices and to make it yourself. Their gyros are going to have a hard time competing against the value that Steve's Gyros offers right across the bridge at West Side Market. Maybe some of their other menu options are worth it, and I may consider returning back to try other items if one of my friends want to check it out.
