Judging from all the one star reviews, I'm not surprised this place closed down. I just confirmed they're closed when I walked by this morning. Maybe I can share my last experience with this place: the lady at the counter seemed short and rude, and when I was about to leave I go back up to the counter to ask for a box and a to-go fork. Without letting me finish, the lady turns around to get the box. After handing me the box, she just stands there looking at me. I was like "i also asked for a fork?" Word of advice here: it would do well to let your customers finish what they were saying. That's basic human decency.

I would really love to give this restaurant an awesome review, especially since the food is good. But that's only when the restaurant is actually open. Despite hours posted here on Facebook, posted in Google, and on their website, having the restaurant be open is hit and miss. Which I personally feel is disappointing. Many times I've gone to a closed door with no explanation and during "business hours". Another poor excuse I've been given is "Well, the university isn't in session." So??? That's just bad business practice to blame a summer season for no business hours. It's not like there isn't any locals that might also the food. In addition, a few times, they dropped the ball on condiments and/or putting into the order all items noted in the menu, but other than that and the hours issues, the food seems to be quite good. For more reliable hours, try Santorini on Grant just to the East, across the way from Eegee's. Their food is also very good, but they do run out fast so order or get there before 6pm.

We were excited to try this given the ratings on google and Uber eats. Taking all the below aside the flavors we’re ok and the rest of the salad was fresh and crisp. Might need to visit this place in person to get a better experience - hence the 3 stars.Tomatoes were pretty far gone, the burger tasted like it was microwaved, no lettuce in the OG salad or falafel pita, and the single dolmathes was just ok. As mentioned by others the fries we’re bland and soggy.

Flavor isn't bad, but prices are crazy. For $15, I was able to get a salad and rice plate with ONE skewer of beef. Fat coincidence that there are no prices on the online menu when you call in for takeout, and that the caption below reads "we can change prices without discretion". Meanwhile, other customers can spent $11 on a salad, $8 on a kids meal, or $10 on... zucchini sticks?

My friend Kayla bought me lunch today. I decided to try this place out because it was close by our work place & a Gyro sounded good. The Gyro was not great at all. I asked for extra tomato because I love fresh tomatoes and used to getting those on a Gyro. Instead they were cut small and seemed to get stewed sitting with the hot meat. The meat was the worst! Most of it was dry, overcooked and hard. I know the way Gyro meat is cooked sometimes you end up with a piece or two a little overcooked, but they decided to fill mine w/ a lot of the overcooked meat. Maybe because it was a to-go order and they wanted to get rid of it? Disappointed and won't be back.

Oof, I'm sorry to leave this, I really am.. but not as sorry as I am to have taking a chance and spent money on the food.. I dread not so fresh food, especially when it comes to Greek. The only thing that managed to actually be somewhat decent, was their salad, that by default, is fresh by nature... oh, what, did i mention it doesn't have lettuce? Outside of that, the hummus is horrible... it tasted like it had been waiting in a plastic container (for who knows however long).. and the (not so spicy)- Spicy Gyro sandwich was just weird.. the feta blended with the oil of the meat, or maybe was genuinely curdled? (or at least appeared to be), and didn't taste fresh... the only thing this place has going for itself, is it's presentation in packaging, if you can get passed the food itself not looking appetizing, that is..

The food is usually good, stick to the gyros. I hate saying this but the service has been noticeably bad almost every time I've been in. Needs to improve. If I didn't live so close I would not be going in here ever because the service has been that bad.

We got the mega fries and calamari. The calamari was just OK, but the mega fries were to die for. Will return.

This place has some decent options. The dolmathes and kebabs are good. Side salad is usually soggy though. My boyfriend loves everything here!
The mega fries are fantastic. The flavor combinations are great. I'll eat here again, but just the fries.The spanakopita and falafel were not good. For a spinach and cheese pie, the spanakopita was all grape leaves in filo dough. No spinach or cheese. Very chewy.

Worst Greek food ever. Totoally not authentic. The spanikopita had no dill and no feta and was spicy. It was spiced spinach in filo dough. The fried zucchini were inedible- just awful. The pita bread has no real flavor. The gyro wasn't good either. The best part of the meal was the salad dressing.

I came here with an adored colleague for lunch and the best I can say is that it was just okay. We both got the Zoe salad, which is Greek spiced chicken on a bed of greens with tomatoes and cucumbers, and your side of dressing. I will say but there was definitely a lot of food, as we probably could have split a salad and then just fine. But the chicken was a bit dry, and unless you added dressing to your salad, there was very little else in the way of flavor. For almost $10 a pop, it was okay. It wasn't great, it wasn't awful.

Everything is good here. Authentic taste and friendly service. The garlic fetta dressing is the bomb. We always take at least 6 jars back to California every time we visit.
