| - As a proud black male with an education, let me tell you that I've had better Greek food. I awoke from my midday nap with obvious hunger in my belly, and I was craving something from the land---you know, made with vegetables and animals grazing on hillsides, like the pictures I've seen in books.
Anyway, I headed down to Pastitsio for a gyro ($8, with a "salad"). The gyro perfection was indeed perfect, but the side salad was weak and sloppy wet with a flavorless oil sauce, like my Uncle Red's toupee they found after Katrina hit town.
The gyro was definitely flavorful, and not obscenely enormous like some places make them (Rodos Greek Cafe). But the salad was so bad, I knew I need to get home and Yelp to all my homies in the L-Ville.
Service was fine and average, no complaints. And the atmosphere is hip metal tables, exposed brick, and yuppie hipster prices. There was a lovey-dovey couple next to me romantically sharing some rice pudding(also overpriced).
My main gripe is that I don't feel I got $8 of gyro and salad--it shoulda been $5. And the menu had too many options.
I'm a simple man, as you can tell by my picture. Cheap Greek food should be CHEAP.
Now, back to whoopin some ass...
