This restaurant is amazing. Absolutely delicious. I mean the meat was perfectly cooked and the the flakes of the shavings had a really wonderful crispiness, it wasn’t too dried out like some gyro places, it was juicy tender delicious and had an excellent mouth feel also it was not overly greasy. I am not a big vegetable person, his harissa was luscious the tzatziki and had great flavor and spice. The tzatziki was perfect on the gyro. Yes the pita was also perfectly toasted. You could hold the whole gyro and the pita didn’t break apart. It had a lot of meat as well, the price was 13$ there was enough meat for me to justify the pricing. I came from Oklahoma where the prices are less but I didn’t have a problem with this price at all.
I added a video, so you all can see the consistency and how good this was.
However I want to address some of the bad reviews. One person seemed disgruntled because of holiday hours I can understand that but that’s not really grounds for a bad review.
Someone said the quality had dipped and from my photo to the other ones online it was consistent, so I think maybe a customer bucking for a discount.
Also someone said his fake Grecian salad using iceberg ?!? This I felt was just a person hating, the fact the owner here changes select ingredients from some traditional items but it’s not to amend the flavors it actually enhances the flavors, and gives this light body airy texture to not only the tzatziki but he has this clean crisp spiciness of his harissa forming a perfect blend. Also in Greece the high end restaurants make their tzatziki in his fashion.
Also someone complained about a tortilla in the Schwarma ?!? Really this is one California to with the ingredients of the tahini the tortilla helps cut the bitterness. This is a very common chef move that they will do so they can showcase the flavors of an item in their dish. A common example of this is sometime people make garlic bread on toast because it’s a little sweeter and more buttery tasting verse French bread where it’s a little more garlicky.
I’m not a fan of tomatoes however the owner you can tell took time in vegetable selection as they were firm with unbroken skins. This little detail is indicative of this business owners drive to have great food.
Also the service was awesome he was polite friendly on time opened a little early also he doesn’t ask for tips or expect a Tip. I gave him one. This I felt was beyond awesome.
The onions also were good. Also you can tell the difference in his onions, the ones in his tzatziki had the crispness of freshness yet the subtle softness from the herbs. The fresh ones were to the right size. The lettuce he trims down for the crispier parts. The iceberg I felt was great.
His prices you can tell are from a business owner who cares about his customers. Where he could charge 15-17$ for a gyro he only charges 13$ so he can maintain top ingredient and full periods without passing the cost on to you the customer.
Also you can tell he takes his halal and kosher items extremely seriously in his kitchen.
This is a very big thing, because it’s a direct indication of this owners commitment to quality.
So I encourage you all to leave him a positive 5 star review and make sure you all drop in regularly.
The best way to support a local business is by going out there bringing your friends and having lunch and having a good time. So I was happy all the way...
Read moreThis is an unsolicited review. Zorbas is worth a visit for the food alone. My son, a foodie, Google maps sleuth and navigator, found the place and we gave it a try. It lives up to the 5 stars on all of the expected items...food, service, and atmosphere. The location is easily accessible, and the decorations are attractive and Has has an eye for color and art exhibited in design and his mode of dress. I also bought a cool Nazar bracelet available at the register that I was drawn to.
But, today, I'm writing a review mainly based on the noble character of the owner. A man of atypical patience, grace and strength. Has is a man I would search out for life advice and inspiration, as well as for a good hot dog, swarma or gyro.... All generously portioned and satisfying.
I'm not given to go blow smoke up another's arse at this point in my life, but I'm going to give credit(and lack there of 😉),where credit's due. Has is stellar ⭐✨ in his own right. My son and I witnessed this firsthand after an issue ensued with payment and my inability to pay the bill with Google Pay, which Has was unable to take because of Internet unavailability at the food truck and my lack of funds available in my bank account for Venmo or cash. I won't go into detail out of respect for the privacy of parties involved, but a minor issue ensued that was unrelated to Has and his business, that came to light in the in the process. My son and I were left feeling inspired by his story and persona and the classy way in which he dealt with the situation. We spent the good deal of an hour after lunchtime hearing his stories and his passion for fatherhood, sport and life. His uncommon common sense and presence of mind will never be forgotten, and my son and I count him as a true man of his word and an enviable example of the best in humankind. Take some time to get to know the man behind this delicious and nutritious roadside eatery. Thanks Has! Tanti...
Read moreThis is no ordinary food truck, this is the Ferrari of food trucks. Conveniently located just off 101, parked at Goodmans and coincidently just a few hundred feet away from the Ferrari dealership. From the moment you walk up, you're greeted with the mouthwatering aroma. The sleek, sassy and stylish design of the joint itself is a splendiferous compliment to Mill Valley, but it’s the food that truly steals the show. I've had my fair share of gyros over the years, but nothing comes close to this place. Hands down, without a doubt, the best I've ever had throughout the entire world and let this not be an over statement, it is F’n BANG’N! Each bite keeps me wanting more. The star of the show was the sauce, creamy, tangy, and jacked up with his harissa sauce, which was the perfect blend. Just thinking of it has my mouth going tsunami, every component was designed to create an unforgettable rave in my mouth. And relative to raves, the what sounded like mediterranean lounge/house music playing in the background has your feet tapping while my mouth in chomping. Aroma, sound, design, and one of the kindest and smartest peeps I’ve come across, all synchronized, what the sugar dude, I...
