Wow, what a hidden little gem this was!!
My mom and I were wanting to explore the downtown and came across this small, nondescript looking building nestled between other shops. Mom loves gyros and I was ready to try something new, so we went in. The Inside was really neatly decorated in old style Greek decor. Many photos also adorn the walls of the owners family. The place was virtually empty so we really got to look around.
We sat down to pour over the menu. I was surprised at the low prices. Salads range from 3.99 to 5.99. Sandwiches range from 3.99-7.99 (gyros are only 5.99). Sides/appetizers are 3.99. Drinks 1.69. Ice cream or baklava 2.50. There isn't a ton of things t choose from, but should suit most. They also have hot dogs and pizza for the kids. (1.99-2.99)
Mom and I decided to try an order of Dolmas/stuffed grape leaves. We had no idea what we were in for. They served this yummy looking little bundles of seasoned meat wrapped in tender grape leaves and served with a sauce. I could have sat there and ate them all day. Granted, I don't have others to compare them to, but if they got any better I would have never left the place! That sauce was amazing itself. Almost a ranch flavor but not really...hard to compare it to anything... Anyway, moving on, (and I didn't want to), to sandwiches! Mom got a gyro and I got the pastrami. The gyro looked great and she said it melted in her mouth. I did taste the meat and it was super tender. The pastrami was grilled with Swiss and stacked with meat. The flavor was unrivaled. They came with potato salad, and I'm not much of a potato salad fan, but let me tell you, there was not a drop left. It was beyond good. I wish I could explain the flavors to you, but all I can say is, go and try it yourself! (please note, that these are not my images. They are web images and not my property)
