Ok when you live in a town thay in the past year has put up two Gyro restaurants with in a 2 mile radius, you better be packing something extraordinary, and fantastic. Not so much the plan with this place. The location it's in does not have a great track record for holding restaurants, in fact most don't last a year or 2 in this place. Not sure why that is but I'm thinking this place, unfortunately, may have the same fate…. So about a week ago I call in to order food, thinking ok a new spot let's see how it is, right off the bat I was irritated. The lady on the phone although very nice, spoke very broken english. I told her I wanted 2 of the same thing and she says something I couldn't understand and puts me on hold for a good 5 minutes while I hear her speaking another language to someone in the background. I was thinking at that point , do I really feel like going through with this? I stayed on and waited. I told her my order 3 different times, which honestly was ridiculously simple, 2 chicken gyros one without sauce, and then asked for baklava. She told me there was none left for the day and that she'd give me some free next time I came in.
Fast forward 30minutes, I go to pick up the food. I walk in the place is dead empty. The lady is there and again very nice, but I couldn't understand most of what she said, like at all. I wait a few minutes for the food, get it and wonder of she's going to mention the baklava she promised for next time. Nope. Oh well. So I go home after a long day and come to find the smallest portion of food ever. Places in the area give almost double what they gave. That would have been okay if the food was top knotch, but sadly it wasn't. The chicken was really bland and so was the rice. There was about 1 peice of really wilted, wet, lettuce that was supposed to be salad? The tazikki they gave me tasted like straight up plain yogurt and the hot sauce was like Franks red hot sauce. Not exactly what I was expecting like at all…The pita was great, but then again it wasn't home made so that probably makes sense….. Either way the price was great $5.99 for a gyro platter but as they say, you get what you pay for. I'm all for small mom and pop businesses , but in this case juicy platters for the win…
