Our Happy Customers
What a great find! Needed lunch while at the Franklin Institute and this was a super quick walk. Went with the family and it was perfect. Had a great table by a huge open window. The gyro platter and sandwich were huge and delicious!! The best gyro meat we've had. The pita and waffle fries were fantastic.

This place is five stars for their gyros and spanakopita. This is more of a "fast" Greek food place - don't try to be super healthy ordering fish, or veggie mixes (even though their falafel is great). I love their pork souvlaki sandwich - it's tasty, delicious - has the Greek French fries on top (yes this is done in Greece), and the absolute must and best is their custom moustaki sauce! My favorite thing about their gyro is that sauce. One other thing that is amazing is their avgolemono soup! I ordered it plenty of times. It is perfect for the winter weather. Like I said this place has amazing gyros - it mimics the fast Greek food places in Greece - don't try to be super healthy Mediterranean, enjoy a gyro!

Just tried the chicken gyro tonight. DELICIOUS! It's on a corner that I hadn't paid much attention to but stumbled upon it and gave it a go. My boyfriend tried the chicken spicy feta gyro and also loved it. Definitely going to become a go to spot. Only request is more tzatziki!

How It All Started
How It All Started
After a vacation to Greece, Pete and his wife Trish enjoyed the local flavors of Athens and particularly the Gyros. Pete grew up spending his summers in Greece and always enjoyed grabbing Gyros from the local shops. In Greece a gyro is like a hot dog or burger in the States; they are accessible everywhere. Back home in Philadelphia Pete and Trish noticed there were Greek restaurants, but nothing like they had experienced in Greece with fast casual Gyro’s. Pete and Trish had the vision and desire to bring the Authentic Gyro experience they had in Greece to Philadelphia.
