My experience is somewhat confusing. The kids that work up in the establishment are pretty gross . I’ve observed picking nose , wiping nose on apron , missing items from my food order , coughing and sneezing constantly. The bathroom continually smells like rot . I love the flounder but the presenters make it hard for the food to be enjoyable. If they would start cracking down on these employees I believe this place could be great .

My second time here. Staff is okay, friendly. Food tasted not so fresh like they once did. Tables were sticky and the Mac n cheese was watery. Disappointed bc I love Gyros.

Despite being ready, my to-go order was ignored on the counter for a frustrating thirty-minute wait. 😒
