| - From the moment we were seated in a nearly empty restaurant in the middle of the afternoon and the waitress stopped at our table four times, literally one time after the other, asking if we were ready to order, I wondered why we had stopped there at all. We told her when she gave us the voluminous menu we had not been there in a while and would need some time to decide what we wanted. Apparently she did not hear or was on a mission.
I ordered a gyro salad which arrived with a very weird sweet creamy Italian dressing, blessedly on the side. I requested a regular Italian dressing, which also was not what I would consider a true Italian dressing. The salad consisted of iceberg lettuce, one slice of cucumber, two small tomato slices, gyro meat and some feta cheese. Not a kalamata olive in sight and I would expect a few more cucumber slices and tomato slices in a normal gyro salad. The gyro meat and feta were tasty. This salad was over eight dollars, so they are making a handy profit on them.
We also ordered sauerkraut balls as an appetizer. They were good.
Overall, I doubt I would ever return to this restaurant. We have other restaurants locally we like and that provide much better food. Having said that, my dining companion ordered a burger and said it was wonderful, so perhaps salads are just not their thing.
