Your catering department is trash. We ordered through EZ Catering and a day before the order was to arrive, we increased the amount from 20 guests to 27. The food arrived for 20 guests and when EZ catering called them, restaurants states it was enough, it wasn't.

Cancelled the order completely out of no where after 20 minutes while we were waiting hungry. Super unprofessional

Empty spot. Should have walked out right away. Nothing is cooking on any broilers. All meats precooked and put in steam table that dries up meat and flavor.
They have Gyro meat, white or dark chicken gyros.
They give you water down sauce without flavor. And a few toppings. The tomato’s and cucumber were soggy and I removed them just to try to enjoy the meat and it was just terrible. Fatty dried up pieces of meat. Not sure how this place is going to service. I would have rather had a slice of pizza for 6 bucks than spend 12 bucks on a terrible Gyro!

No soup even though the menu has it. All pastries pre packed from vendor. This is not worth the stop for a gyro. Have to try to find another spot in Arlington for a gyro.

We had lunch today and the food was delicious! The restaurant is so clean and the two young ladies who were working today were delightful! They gave us great recommendations and we enjoyed our lunch immensely. Wish I could put more than 5 stars!

Went around 4pm. It is a nice place but the gyro is not fresh off the spit, it's in a warmer and had obviously been sitting there for awhile because it was cold when we ate it. The falafel is frozen and reheated. The two drinks they had were excellent though. Maybe we went at a bad time but I wasn't impressed.

We have worked with David for many group meals with groups of exchange students. He and his team are SO incredible to work with and make everything so smooth when ordering for a large amount of people. The food is amazing and our kids always love it. The team is communicative, friendly, and accommodating. We will continue to come back here to feed our groups as they are SO good at working with our groups and the food is always a huge hit!

One of my favorite places to grab lunch in the neighborhood. I usually go for the bowl. You can choose among a base of rice, lentils or salad, then a protein (gyro meat, chicken, falafel) and plenty of options for toppings and sauces. All ingredients look fresh and portions are generous to leave you full. Service is very attentive. Recommended!

Parking: Parking is hit or miss, but there is plenty of street parking around (paid)

Worst food I’ve had in a while) the bowl and the pita were bland but okay, falafel and French fries were super burnt and bitter from the oil they probably never changed, and I ordered two big orders of fries, what a waste …. All going to trashUpdate: no thank you, I would rather get a refund.

I ordered my food which looks decent. I ordered a Coke Zero and got a Diet Pepsi which was expired on August 2023. I was wondering why it was so flat. I’ve never seen a food industry so careless about their customers.

I've been twice, and the food was very fresh-looking and delicious. I'm not really familiar with a lot of Greek food, but this place makes me want to experiment with it more. Also, the staff is very personable and prices are competitive for the area.
