The food was alright, the burgers were a decent size but what I didn't like was the fact that we had to pay for a dlc for fries. But at the end of the day, my goddess athena was really hot.

If you are looking for a great quality Gyro, GO here. Well worth the price. I have had the gyros and large fries. Large fries are in a takeout container it really is a good amount. At the time of making this 2 gyros and large fries hit me for about 40 bucks (rounding up). Still worth it at that price.

We ordered catering and there was an enormous amount of food that was delicious. The vegetable skewers were the best I have ever had, the Greek salad was also one of the best, and everything else was just as good. I can't recommend enough.
