Nestled in the heart of Boston, this restaurant offers an intriguing blend of cuisine, with a particular focus on gyros and sandwiches that garner praise from loyal patrons. While opinions on the pizza are mixed, with some describing it as overly heavy and reminiscent of canned sauces, the gyros stand out for their perfectly cooked meat and flavorful tzatziki. Known for generous portions and wallet-friendly prices, this family-run establishment has been serving the community for over 25 years, maintaining a welcoming atmosphere and consistently fresh ingredients. Overall, diners recommend exploring their diverse menu beyond the pizza offerings.

What is special about this place is that prices are 20%-30% below anything you get in Cambridge (even with the low prices) portions are 20%-30% bigger than what you typically get food is very good service is very friendly (I assume family run and owned). Food is prepared directly when you order. That combination is hard to find. I typically go here for different versions of their gyros. They are all excellent!

I have been coming to this restaurant for over 20 years, I believe. The prices have hardly increased during that time. I get the feeling they are not making much profit when selling their enormous steak and cheese subs. Despite that, this place is fantastic. The subs are amazing and generous, the pizza is delicious, and the staff is friendly. Everyone enjoys dining here.
