First visit and we ordered take out. The portions were large, they were fast and friendly, and it’s very nice on the inside! It’s also affordable in comparison to similar restaurants. I’ll definitely be returning!

This is a absolutely wonderful spot to attend, I was looking to try something new in a casual spot! The service from the workers was phenomenal, they were attentive, generous in giving, and easy accessible. I ordered the vegetarian plate which was very good, the greek salad was phenomenal! The pineapple smoothie was made with fresh fruits in house and blended to perfection, I look forward to my next visit here!

Amazing food and great value. I was moved to try the Moussaka because of the website photo and it did not disappoint… it was over the top tasty! Plus, the portion was so generous that I shared it with a friend. We also shared the gyros which was wrapped full of succulent meat. These two dishes were more than enough for 2 people to share and cost only $20! I look forward to returning and sampling more of their offerings. 5 bright shining stars

I ordered 2 beef shawarmas through Uber Eats, for delivery, for me and my mother, and neither of the sandwiches had any Lettuce, tomatoes, or anything else inside of them, other then some type of sauce. So, it was seemingly just the beef, which was very chewy, and fatty on some parts, some type of white sauce, wrapped in flour. It was good, but I wish there would have been some veggies in there. It was basically just a steak wrap, with no veggies inside the wrap. My mother did not enjoy hers, due to the meat being so hard / chewy, and fatty, and again, I think there should have been some veggies in the beef shawarmas. Anyways, it was not bad, but I would not order from this place again.
