“We were working in the area, smelled so good outside how could I not try it. I work all over the state and always try to sample the locals food joints. This place is a hit. I had the beef Gyro. I’ve had gyros all over the state. But this place was the best. Marinated steak over lettuce and tomatoes with the sauce drizzled over top. More than enough food for the price. Highly recommend and I will return whenever I’m in the area.“
