King Gyros — Restaurant in Mooresville

First time here, let me get that straight. Food taste and quality i had the chicken over rice with added pita bread and made it spicy. Best pictures item on the menu. Inside overall. Not Beautiful every ketchup bottle squeezed to paper, interior not as “flashy” however lots on the menu had plenty of options however not to much on pictures, personally i like to see what i eat and compare to the plate. Due to the empty nature i like to eat in peace so brought it to my car. At first glance didn’t match the picture and ranch was a little sloppy but it is spicy so i can understand the threat. And it was spicy. Not torturing but just a good amount of heat. Gave it all a little mix and it looked decent first taste i get that meaty chicken and seasoning was delicious followed by the spice and creamy ranch with the added pita bread and rice with lettuce all helping cool it down i didn’t even have to reach for my drink the “added spice” was most definitely grilled jalapeños the mix of it all just came together so well as big as the plate is portion wise was definitely on par with price. You get your money’s worth. Now enough of the ramble here’s my score Taste 9.5/10 (presentation needs work) Price 10/10 (large portions, feels like the robbing them) Service 6.5/10 (very friendly however clothing and presentation with everyone having earbuds in and there’s no balance of professionalism NEEDS WORK) Clean? 8/10 (cant clean if no-ones inside) Food options YES/10 Fast service? 8/10 (Decent depends on what you get its made to order.) MOST IMPORTANTLY ..is it worth it…9.5/10 Its a nice little shop local in town. Just needs that bump to bring this place up. Me personally i will be coming back. I still have much to try

Overall...

We got the lamb gyro and chicken gyros. It was good but my only concern is the business is wasting a lot of good by the portion sizes. You guys could save a ton of money by dialing back on portion sizes within the gyro itself. His lamb gyro probably had a whole onion or half of an onion sliced into it and I had about half a tomato and onion also. It was super messy because of the amount of food inside of it. The food quality was good, flavor was good, but I’d suggest lowering the portion sizing because we both wasted half of our food just because it got too messy to eat. Portion to price ratio is super good too. More than moneys worth. This is in no way meant to be a negative post but more so a learning review.

Ways for you guys to save money so you can use the saved money for better marketing. The screens in the lobby transition too fast and it’s hard to read the menu. I suggest showing one slide on each screen instead of cycling through the whole deck on each screen alternatively. Quickly frustrated with the marketing and menu presentation because of this. Also use excess saved money from portion controlling the food to do some upgrades inside from the overall visual appearance and bathroom presentation as well. There was no toilet paper holder. Just some things to think about as far as...

EDITED because it changed ownership.

Food: ok - good, but not exceptional. Husband ordered the sausage Italian Beef combo. So much beef juice was on the bun and beef that it disintegrated the paper it was wrapped in. He kept pulling paper off it. The beef was very tender, but super dry - weird having been doused in juice. Fries were not good. Just grocery store frozen fries that weren't cooked long enough and were under salted. I ordered the Falafel Gyro combo. Tzatziki was very good. The Falafel was super crunchy on the outside and soft on inside. Loved the texture. I got ranch for the unappealing fries. The Ranch was VERY good. Tasted homemade. There was a fill your own soda station (bonus). But they had paper straws. Ugh. They always fall apart.

Service was as you expect. Order at the cashier. Then they call you back to the cashier to pick up tour order. Everything was correct. Nothing exceptional or extraordinary.

Atmosphere: well... I used to eat at the old Long John Silvers, so there is some nostalgia. But it really isn't a great atmosphere. Some of the pictures on the wall were left from the...
