| - Why is there no 2.5 stars? I'll round up because the Spanakopita was pretty good.
This restaurant is located in the Simcoe Place (CBC building) food court.
My standard order here was the Chicken Souvlaki. Chicken Souvlaki skewer, rice, potatoes, and salad. Salad is made to order, optional tomatoes, onions, olives, dressing, and Feta cheese. Ample portions. Price: 6.49 plus taxes. A full dollar less than Jimmy the Geek (or Greek).
I used to think this was a good value until someone pointed out that it's better at the Geek, and i started to more closely compare the two. Previously, I only noticed that you get one less potato than the Geek. Then I noticed that the rice at Mr Souvlaki just doesn't taste as good, i'm not sure if it's over cooked, another type (parboiled? - yuck), or just missing the grease (mmm .... tasty oily goodness). Also the salad dressing is missing something ..... flavour!
All in all, not bad for 6.49, but I'll spend the extra $1 and get to the Geek.
Spanakopita is good, not too salty like some others.
