TLDR: Came for a good gyro. Left heartbroken. They tack on an extra 5-8% for using “debit or credit cards due to “taxes at the end of the year.” Also, good luck on receiving an itemized list of whatever you purchase here. Just gotta “take his word for it.” I really tried to like this place. However, I just couldn’t shake the lack of transparency with pricing. Nor did I appreciate the runaround when I brought up his prices and how they were so high AND they didn’t even match up. Ok, I get it. It’s expensive to run a business. But dude, $6 for bachlava? $2.50 for a canned Diet Coke? Mind you, he’s adding this as I go grab the drink myself, I seen this and thought: “holy shit. He really just puts any number he wants in the register!” The plate itself was about $17.xx. (I put “XX” since I received no itemized receipt!) After taxes, I ended up paying $29.xx. As I was paying, I couldn’t help but notice there was a second payment processing system down below(his side can view only) and from upside down, I read $31.XX. If I’m not mistaken, that’s an increase of 5-8% just for using a card?? How do you justify that? Not only that, but it’s designed for you not to see. And when I mentioned that, he went on a wild tangent about how “he has to pay a lot of taxes at the end of the year.” And how this and that, blah blah blah. I think once I mentioned I traveled a lot and prefer New York style lamb gyro, he must have assumed I was made of money. He acted thrilled that I knew about bachlava. Again, a pivot away from his strange pricing system. Just a flat out conman vibe I got from this guy. In the end, the lamb was exquisitely delicious, there’s no need to lie there. Just a shame they take advantage of their customers, with markups like they do. In the end, I won’t be going back to this place. But see for yourself. And if they read this, please, do better! None of that “price as high as I feel I can get away with” nonsense. People like Itemized receipts! Thank you.
Parking: There’s literally 3 parking spaces. See for yourself.

Not sure really what to say or exactly how to start this but all I can say, you won't be mad if you end up here, whether it be on purpose or by accident much like I did. Much like the semi-sad and drab interior of the restaurant, my interaction with the staff matched the same description but direct and to the point is fine by me.Got the chicken shawarma wrap and man it was good especially the Dijon sauce thing it had. Decently priced and filling.Pin the tail on the donkey and wander in for a try.
Parking: They have a free, very small (3 spaces + handicap slot) lot that they share with the restaurant next door. There is street parking as well.

I don’t know what these other people are saying, but the owners, and workers here have never been anything but nice & courteous with me.I’ve been coming here for over 2 years and have never had a bad experience. Some of you are just super entitled and forget there’s a language barrier so foreigners have to be more direct. Stop getting all your panties in a bunch!They’ll be speaking a different language and translate what was said so I can laugh too, aside from that the food is ALWAYS GOOD. Beef lule & shawarma are my go to.

I called in to ask some questions due to dietary restrictions… and the man who answered talked in a very dismissive way, and gave attitude when I asked if different knives are used for the non pork meats.
