Today was their last day of business. The owner is retiring.My gyro was delicious and the fries were perfectly cooked. Such a bummer I can't come back but it was such a nice experience talking with the owner and getting to meet Susan Wagner. SO much cool history in this place! A Pittsburgh gem for

Generous portions of perfectly prepared falafel. Side salad was huge and the homemade Italian dressing was great. Cheese fries were good, too. Food came out hot and quickly. Staff was friendly. Environment is a bit run-down. Maybe they could raise their low prices slightly and remodel? Will definitely go back.Vegetarian options: Plenty of good vegetarian options

Terrible expirience, called in for a take out and the phone person said "are you serious" and then proceeded to ignorantly tell me to take my order elsewhere because veggies was requested on side. Very rude customer service. Wouldnt recomend to anyone. Very cringy place.

Food is good and priced below Pittsburgh prices. Owner is a good dude . You get alot for what you pay for . Nice little Greek menu with something for everyone. The balsamic dressing is on of the best ( homemade ) .

Everything I've gotten from here has been great. Visit often for lunch and the owner is always very hospitable.

My co worker and i go here for lunch almost everyday anymore. The owner now feels more like a friend than resteraunt owner and the food is exceptional. Give it a shot and spark of a conversation with the owner, hes some great stories to tell

Great food at decent price and quick service.

Seems a little pricey, but they load you up. meat filled gyros. Fat grape leaves. Decent pizza place, but Greek food tastes like mom made it.Vegetarian options: I'm not vegetarian, so if I go meatless, it had better be good. Achievement unlocked BFG.

This restaurant is great, food is fantastic and location is super easy to get to. Gyros, pizza, burgers and vegetarian is its core offering. Prices are too good to be true and because of that you can’t expect a lot outside of the excellent food. The restaurant is roomy with plenty of places to sit, but if you are looking a upscale place that serves vegan or gluten free, I wouldn’t say a pizza joint to be your first port of call.The owner is there everyday and is doing his best but hours of operation do tend to vary because of availability of staff.This is however a small, locally owned business that managed to stay open all during Covid, continued to serve the community and is worth supporting. If we don’t support these businesses, the chain restaurants and fast food is all we will have left.

Super basic shop that's barely above a take away place, but the gyros were fantastic, especially for the price.
