We wanted to order from here a while ago, but the website put us off. It seems in what was likely a rush to create the site, they overlooked some really important details like putting their actual phone number and address on the website. Had it not been for GrubHub, we probably wouldn't have given it a chance. Note: they don't deliver through GrubHub, just get orders so live tracking isn't accurate.
We placed our order and delivery was forecasted to be an hour out. Curiously, I got a text within 10 minutes that it was out for delivery. We assumed that was in error and waited the hour.

Instead of just letting me pick up my order (the only 1 sitting there) from their table that was clearly supposed to be a grab & go situation, he insisted on confirming my name & the whole vibe was just OFF.
You can almost tell just by walking in that it's not as authentic. Food was bland & disappointing, & they should at the very least put more details on their menu for what you're getting. Not...
Read moreThis is a very tasty mediterranean fast casual dining. The food is very good, much better than the mediterranean chain. Every bite was authentic and nicely proportioned. I think the only thing that was a bit off was the mini-pickle spears in the gyro. Ive had gyros in Athens and on Mykonos, they dont add pickles. Also, the onions was a bit much, I had to reduce it by half. The place was busy with many take-away orders. ...
