There’s a little hole-in-the-wall gyros place on 24th street that I often pass at lunchtime on my way to the Apple Store.
Every-time I pass it I think, “I should have gone there for lunch” but the parking is almost non-existent and by then I’m committed to another course of action.
Yesterday, though, I was in the right place at the right time and finally stopped in.
Just as the sign says, their menu is mostly just gyros and sides, which is fine by me, The lunch special was souvlaki, fries and a drink for $6.50.
I’ll need more visits to determine the overall quality of the food, but the souvlaki (grilled pork) was very good, and I really liked the sauce on the gyro. It had a strong, fresh flavor (heavy on cucumber) which added a lot to the dish.
The restaurant only has about 6 tables and apparently even less parking.
If you’re in the area, give them a try.
