I ordered the traditiomal gyro platter. It came with rice, salad, pita slices and dipping sauce, and a gyro pita sandwich. I tried the rice first. It was bland and dry. The salad was good, at least the lettuce was fresh. They gave me some little slices of pita bread and a little bit of dipping sauce. Once again, bland. Then I tried the gyro. It looked great.
Now I have eaten quite a few gyro sandwiches from different restaurants and am usually satisfied with the taste. The meat (lamb in my case) is what makes the sandwich. Oh my gosh what a surprise. The meat barely had any flavor at all! Additionally, it didn't look like it was completely cooked and was very light colored. It was so bland I didn't even eat half of the gyro. Very disappointed.
I'll give you that the place is nicely decorated and the service staff was good, but the food just didn't cut it. Prices could be better too, but they weren't that bad.
Won't be going back here, not while Paymons and my favorite, Yassou Grill on charleston/buffalo are still open. The food at those two is much better than here.
