“ Their food is stupidly good. I always go out of my way to drop in and get a chicken gyro, with cucumber, onion, tomatoes tsaziki and hot sauce. This food is my happy place. I wish they had interior seating. Better take their food home, it's very messy, in the most fantastic way. Word of warning, their red sauce is hot as fire, I get 2 lines of hot, and that's plenty. Must try, it will change you! Only wish they had seating. ”
