Honestly, one of my favorite places to eat. I was craving Mediterranean & this place satisfied every inch of my cravings. Everything about this place was pure authentic. I enjoy the fact that the space is limited because you get a chance to know the history & store behind the owner & all. The type of place that is not about the money or the views. A place of home. I will always recommend this place to anyone & everyone because it’s like a cute hidden gem. Oh - we got the platter for 2 which was $35 & my goodness, the amount of meat they give you 👌🏽 PERFECT PORTION! I also love how accommodating the menu is! Second time coming here & food & staff did not disappoint.

Kind server/cook/host who ran the front of house; believe it was dad who came out of the back to check us out, he was kind and excited to have us. Gyros are flavorful, fries are soft and perfectly salted. Wish the meatball gyro had maybe one more meatball but otherwise was tasty. Definitely will be going back sometime soon!

Came here for my bf's birthday a few weeks ago. Everything was AMAZING. The dolmas were so good we ordered seconds. Then we got the shareable meat platter thing for 4 people and we had enough for both couples to take home heaping amounts of leaftovers. The amount of food they give you for the price is incredible and the quality is amazing. Great experience- cant wait to come back!
