Like subway, but for Greek food! I stopped by right around noon and the place was absolutely packed. Thankfully the staff were all very professional and efficient and kept the line moving at a good pace. I ordered a falafel peta with various toppings. Everything seemed fresh and they had plenty of options for toppings. The restaurant itself was lacking in the ambience department, reminding me of something like a sweet frog. Thankfully it was a beautiful day and the outdoor dining provides a beautiful view of the surrounding buildings.

Their pitas don't hold up and always seem stale The grilled chicken is dry but they have the best fries in town.

I like this place. Tasty, fresh, real ingredients that you can see them preparing right in front of your hungry eyes. Nice staff mostly and good portions and fair prices. I eat here a couple of times a month.

Pretty good spot for Greek food. I believe this place is a small chain across a few states. Good portions for the price. I tried their rizogalo (rice pudding), spanakopita, side of gyro meat, and the signature white garlic sauce.The gyro meat was quite good. Not too fatty, and a little on the thinner side, how I like it. Nicely spiced and a good texture as well. I am sure the full gyro sandwiches are quite good as well. The tzatziki type sauce was also creamy and tasty, but they gave me very little of it.Spanakopita was alright. Thought it was a bit overpriced. I did that it was crunchy on the outside and had a sort of creaminess on the inside. Tasted almost like salty creamed spinach on the inside.The rizgalo rice pudding was disappointing. It was clumped up and certain parts were hardened. Too much cinnamon for me too. Not that creamy. Wouldn’t recommend.All in all, a solid sport for Greek food. Tasty meat and good sauce. The dessert could use some work.Dietary restrictions: Healthy Mediterranean diet options

It's good food and it is usually pretty fast. Service is friendly for a downtown restaurant. A regular stop

Listen. If you like fresh Mediterranean food. This is the spot. They have pitas and bowls and you build your own. I absolutely had the best lunch here. WOW!

This place is AMAZING !!! I’m a picky middle eastern foodie and this place did not disappoint !! Fresh smorgasboard off all the best sides, meat and sauces. Either you’ll eat everything in one sitting (because it’s so damn good) or literally get 2.5 meals out of your entree - the Bowl with lentils, lemon rice, green bears, hummus, chicken, salad,tzatziki sauce, fresh pita, to die for !!

This place is so good for a quick bite. The options are plentiful and I've never gotten anything I didn't like. It's definitely not fussy or fancy, but a great place to swing by for lunch!
