“ I liked how late they were open. That was nice since me and the girl friend were looking for a late night snack. The guy seemed a little crabby but it was super late and probably just getting done with his shift in a bit, also probably been there for while so I get it. The food was pretty good as well! Think I will definitely come back as I'm moving down to the metro area. ”
“ Great kind staff, good selection of glass, great hot cooked food, all sorts of snacks and essentials. Great corner store. ”
“ This place is freaking awesome! The best gyro I ever had in my life and seasoned french fries to die for with a drink and now get this - 10 bucks. The gyro was so big that I have it for lunch and dinner. That's good information if you go there on a date ... ”

“ My lamb gyro was absolutely wonderful the pita was so fresh and soft. The meat was full of flavor. Made fresh on the spot. The staff here super friendly. I stopped in at 11 PM and was so nice to be able to find a place that stays open late and serves good food. Huge menu too! ”
“ Yo. Absolutely amazing. First time ordering from this place. I grabbed the lamb gyro and fries. The gyro is so flavorful the meat isn't dry and well well seasoned the tahini sauce takes it a step further. My food was hot and ready within the time frame they gave me. Definitely making this spot a go-to for quick and convenient food. Especially at this time of night. ”
