I got the street chicken souvlaki and I really liked it. It was pretty big and there was fries in it which made it super good. It had mustard which I didn’t expect I normally don’t like mustard but it was ok. I really liked the wrap itself.My boyfriend got the burger and he really likes it he said it’s one of his fav spots to get a burger in Gainesville.We ordered inside and our food took about 15 minutes.I would recommend this place, it is even cheaper than a lot of places on university.

Ok the Spot seems to be the Spot everytime I drive by. I was driving from Florida to Tennessee and although this restaurant is 12 minutes from the actual highway we deviated ourselves just to come here. It was raining so hard we needed a place we could seat with the dogs. I love gyro platters, my friend got the chicken one and the portions are so good and flavorful. Did I mentioned our dogs ate from both dishes? Yes my dog was actually the one asking to come here.

Food here was delicious! I had the souvlaki but we also had an order of chicken quesadilla and a gyro. I loved the flavor of the tzatziki with the chicken, the gyro looked delicious and the kids enjoyed the quesadilla. They had lots of drink options and the salads also looked tasty. Overall was good and I would come back again.

Amazing place. Very casual ambiance, no servers, just a simple menu with great-tasting food! The gyro (chicken in our case) was fresh, flavorful, hot, and just delicious. Fries were equally hot and tasty. Service was prompt and friendly. Really nothing negative to say. If you want something quick, tasty, and casual, eat here!

Location was okay. Seems like a good spot for tourist and locals to stop in for a quick bite. Service was decent. Food was okay.

The place looks very unassuming. Very small, hole in the wall type of place. The portion sizes are ridiculously large. The lady was so kind. Prices are exceptional for the food quality and quantity. It was absolutely delicious. Hot, fresh, perfectly seasoned. Best baklava I have ever had. Obviously handmade and literally three times larger than any other baklava I have purchased. I'm so impressed. I'll be back.

Why a 4 out of 5 on atmosphere, well I’ve never really paid attention to it, I was busy eating a great meal…

Was waiting in line to get into a nearby bar and ordered a Chicken Shawarma wrap. It hit the spot. Chicken was cooked well, sauce was money, only thing I wish was better was the hot sauce. Will hopefully be back during daytime hours to try more of the meals in the future.

Delicious cuisine left after bringing our son home. Had the traditional gyro, which had great abundance of flavorful meat! ? Because the portion is so large, I had extra to take with me. We added a side order of mixed vegetables to our meal. They were wonderful, fresh, and hot! Son had the enormous and delectable gyro combo platter. We'll return.

Hadn't had a good gyro in a long time, so I decided to try here. Hands down, it was a great decision. Great service, awesome food, the works. The parking garage might be a bit sketch, but between that, and the location itself, it kind of gives off a bit of a Seattle vibe.
