This restaurant has started a summer senior discount; 50% off one entree when you pay full price for another one. Usually when we want Greek food we go to Fronimo's but Fat Greek is usually our second choice though not as good or as inexpensive. Last night's visit bore out my reasons for not eating here more often.
I've never seen it so busy. Lots of tables and all the booths were filled but the service was good. I ordered a chicken gyro platter and Bill got a pork souvlaki entree. the portions are really large and you get a choice of side. Bill ordered the salad and i got the Greek fries only they weren't greek fries but re-heated limp starchy tasting fries. The salad was wonderfully fresh with lots of feta cheese and tomatoes though as i've noticed on other visits; the dressing is scant and not very flavorful. One time i asked for some additional dressing but that didn't help; it just added an oily taste - not flavor.
Their pitas are thicker and more doughy than Fronimo's also. However my chicken was great; very tender and marvelously spiced. Bill liked his pork but said it was a tad chewy; tasted like a cut up pork chop.
When we want/need a change from Fronimo's and the summer senior discount is stiil active we'll be back.
