Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

Our server Kailyn was amazing! I didn't know how to pronounce the food I wanted properly and she taught me the right way and she was super friendly. The food was amazing, so delicious. I ordered a cucumber martini and it was strong and very flavorful. But the most memorable was Kailyn's customer service skills. She was very kind and made our experience so much better than I expected. I recommend the shwarma fries and don't worry about your pronunciation!

I’m always searching for a great Greek restaurant. Especially one that serves a great Gyros 🥙. I had seen this place the previous week, and saved it on my Google maps app. Today was a good time to come and have lunch. I sat at the bar, looked over the menu, and asked a few questions. My selections were the spanakopita, and the Gyros sandwich with ovgolemono soup. The spanakopita arrived - 6 pieces to the plate - and were very good. The tzatziki sauce was ok. Not as creamy in texture, and too much dill as the sauce picked up the color from the seasoning. The soup was not very hot. It had a little lemon taste; and appeared murky as the chicken was shredded. No rice too. See the photo. The Gyros was a mix bag of highs and lows. The high: the meat was tender and flavorful. The lows: small slices of tomatoes; very little tzatziki sauce - a smear across the pita bread; red onions - I dislike red onions almost as much as Scott Conant on the Food Network; and the pita 🫓 that wasn’t as soft as it should have been. Loads of improvement that can be made on this dish. The soup should not shred the meat. Cut nice cube pieces, and introduce some rice. The Gyros is a simple sandwich that should have sweet onions sliced thinly; with half moon slices of tomato. The tzatziki sauce is a 50/50 blend of Greek yogurt and sour cream; with finely diced or grated cucumber and garlic, S&P, lemon juice, and a little bit of dill — too much, like cilantro, can ruin a sauce or dish. There are other items on the menu that I saw that might bring me back. Saganaki 🧀 🔥 and Lamb Chops. I noticed Pastitsio and laughed as my mother (who’s Greek) would say “it’s the bastardized version of lasagna.” One dish I don’t care for. The restaurant is spacious and clean. There’s various seating at tables, booths, bar, and patio outside. Parking is in a mall setting. It might be a challenge with other stores and restaurants. Before leaving I visited the bathroom and found it to be clean, and well kept. Service was fine. My check came to $47.32 after tax and tip.
