This restaurant is in the vacated place of one of our favorite bbq places. The owners just rented part of the space so its a fairly narrow eating area. You order at the counter and along the wall is a bunch of tables.
I wasn't impressed. and i was disappointed because the area this restaurant is located at is a perfect stopping off place for dinner when we're coming down from Mt. Lemmon.
The menu is really small; several "specialties" for $13 which include garlic-yogurt sauce and pita bread and rice pilaf; flaming cheese, lemon orzo soup and gyro sandwiches in addition to a couple of souvlaki dishes. We ordered and split a gyro with rice (you can also get it with greek seasoned fries) for $9 and a small salad for $7.
The salad was a sad assortment of iceberg lettuce, too many onions, a few lumps of feta cheese, 2 cucumbers and 3 slivers of carrot swimmingly and i might say, drowningly drenched in a viniagrette. And the portion was pretty tiny.
The gyro was good but nothing special. The rice was buttery and flavorful but the real standout was the thick yogurt and garlic sauce (tzatziki). Most excellent.
so because of the convenient location we might go back but we wouldn't go out of our way to eat here again.
