I live in Milwaukee and eat way too much takeout and at restaurants, but I love good food, so it's worth it. Anyway, back to the point: if you're in the area you need to eat here at Samosa Flame Grill; you would be doing yourself a disservice by passing over it. A man who came in right after us had come all the way from Minnetonka just for the food. "The rice here is amazing", he said. Well, he was not kidding- I adore good rice and I think the rice that came with my chicken suqaar I could have eaten for breakfast, lunch, and dinner both due to the quantity and that it was prepared to perfection. You'll just have to try it for yourself, but imagine the best rice you've ever eaten and this will be even better seasoned sublimely, flecked with beautiful pops of red and green. And then the chicken. Juicy and delicious, each bite making me shut my mouth and close my eyes because I wanted to focus all my energy on tasting it (I usually talk a lot if you can't tell). My friend got the chicken gyro and it melted in my mouth in a way I didn't know I was missing from previous chicken gyro experiences. The portions as mentioned are generous and the prices are very reasonable.

In plain words, you...

Read moreFood: Decent tasting gyro sandwich but the portion was tiny considering how much it cost.
Atmosphere: No complaints here.
Service: Where do I begin... I had to have a fellow customer order for me because of a language barrier, which is no big deal. I requested to have ingredients left off the gyro due to allergies but this request was not fulfilled. Then they overcharged me because they thought I wanted a meal and not just the sandwich. At this point the customer that helped me order had left and I couldn't communicate this issue or my allergy issue. I gave up and left, after paying $16 for a gyro that I can't even eat and some fries that clearly came out of the freezer and got microwaved or tossed...
