| - I discovered this restaurant through a Groupon offer that I thought was a pretty good deal ($6 for $12 worth of food) so my friend and I decided to split the Groupon and try the restaurant out.
This restaurant is located on Yonge Street in the Harbourfront area (Pinnacle Centre condos - just south of Lakeshore/Gardiner Expressway). A short walk from Union Station, this Greek food eatery is not hard to find at all. This location also serves Yogenfruz frozen yogurt but note that the Groupon is only valid for the wraps/salads and nothing else so it is best to share the voucher with a friend...unless you are really hungry.
When we got to the place, there was a bit of a lineup with only one person working both the cash and the food. For this reason, we experienced slow service and we had to wait a few minutes to even get our orders in which is kind of disappointing considering the restaurant is in a hot tourist area and I would have expected a bit more staff members on deck. Nonetheless, we were eventually served and the lady was friendly enough.
My friend ordered the chicken souvlaki pita while I ordered the gyros pita with donair sauce. The meat was OK - a little dry, and it could have been spiced and seasoned a little bit more and the size of the wrap was average, albeit a little expensive for $7.00. The donair sauce was not very good at all. It had a jelly-like consistency which did not look appetizing at all nor did it taste good. It was sweet but I found it lacked in the garlic department... and I really just could not get over the gelatinous texture of it. From my past experience, I've always thought donair sauce was supposed to be creamy and smooth...not weird jelly. I ended up eating only half of the gyros wrap because it really wasn't that good. My friend said she wasn't really satisfied with her chicken souvlaki either. They used a lot of the fatty parts of the chicken which made it an unpleasurable chewing experience and the tzatziki sauce was also just OK in flavour but a little on the watery side.
Overall, I wasn't really a fan of this place. The service was slow and the food was not that good. I don't think the wraps are worth $7 each so I am glad we got a Groupon to cut the cost in half. If they add more staff to support the summer tourist season as well as make changes to their products (ie. tweak their sauces, add a little more flavour to the meat, maybe use a different part of the chicken for the pitas, etc) then the customer experience may be more satisfactory in the future.
