The food was pretty decent, but nothing too special. I ordered the grilled chicken gyro, but the meat was pretty dry. However, I did enjoy the efficiency of the restaurant, laying out all of the utensils and to-go boxes in the open. I recommend this place if you want a quick bite to eat! I would maybe skip the chicken though.

Went here for the first time finally and got the plaka gyro. It was solid and the meat portion was good. Only critique is the meat is too salty. If there was more salad/tzatziki it would’ve balanced the saltiness out.

My reason for 3 stars is that Plaka charges you $2.50 1.5oz. small amount tzaki sauce. Be prepared for this nickle and dime pandemic. Just like the airlines, you buy ticket to get on the plane, then pay $30 to have the middle seat assigned.
Never been to a Greek restaurant and had pay extra for tzaki sauce when ordering a gyro platter.
I do not recommend it AS a good place for your money.
