So me and my girlfriend were trying to decide where to eat in Fort lauderdale after the july 4th fireworks on the beach and we decided to try this place. Walking in, they weren't busy when it was that late. We both ordered gyros. We were treated to very good service that was friendly and efficient. They started us with fresh hummus and pita it was very tasty. My girlfriend ordered lemonade and they fresh squeezed it, it was very good. Our gyros came, and I swear they were...

We went last night and it was delicious! We had the most amazing platter of hummus and pita. We added on feta cheese and olives, which made it even better! My daughter and I had the Gyro, and my sister had Spanikopita. Everything was very good and the owner is very nice! We will be back in Lauderdale by the Sea in December, and we will definitely come back here!!

The Moussaka hit the spot, and the desserts were legit. They’ve also got some solid Greek beers that go great with everything.
I’m definitely going back—those sandwich specials for lunch look awesome for a quick bite during work hours. Total hidden gem.
