I can’t get over how good this was, It was cooked fresh and it was honestly the nicest gyro ever! It was juicy and full of flavour, it wasn’t oily or fatty it was just perfect. Really reasonably priced for the quality of the food you’re getting too. It was still hot after a 20 minute drive back. If I’m ever down this way again I know exactly where I’ll be eating, I wish I had one near me. Wow.
