    Found this place while walking by and finally decided to give it a try. The place is very clean and the service is fast and friendly. My coworker and I both ordered the gyro special which came with fries and a soda, checking in on Yelp also got me a delicious baklava. We liked the fact that a gentleman whom we believe was the owner, brought us over some hot tea to compliment our baklava. He asked us how we liked everything so far and we let him know that we really liked it and would be back soon.

    The cleanliness of the place, the delicious food, and the great service definitely earned it 5 stars!

    I ordered gyros, falafel & hummus, delivery slow,deliverer cool

    The gyro tasted more like shawarma
    Hubby said falafel had a weird aftertaste
    Hummus gets 4     's

    Love the selection and menu. Menu is clear and there are many choices. There's something for you if you're feeling like combo plates today or maybe gyro wraps tomorrow.
    Staff are kind and genuine people who do their best to take care of me every time, making sure I have everything I need and that I enjoy my meal.

    -Hummus with pita bread is wonderful
    -Mediterranean combo plate is a wonderful assortment of meats! Try this if you have a large appetite and want to taste the flavors. Or just take home what you don't finish.
    -Gyros come with a salad on the side
    -Fries are done well
    -To go boxes are readily available
    -There's a water station to fill your own waters
    -Order first at counter then sit down and the food will be brought to you
    -Good dessert options on display
    -Plenty of tables and seats. Tables can be moved together to set up your configuration whether you have a small or large party
    -Good comfortable place for a workday lunch

    Food was good but customer service very average and BE AWARE when eating the gyros. They cut the gyro in half with the foil leaving little pieces of foil in the middle of your gyro.
