Quality food, and plenty of it! This was exactly what a diner experience should be. Fresh ingredients, not a lot of fuss, solid food, fast service, and dedicated staff. You can tell from watching the patrons how good of a job this place does, too! I went there for lunch on a Wednesday while I was in town on business. There wasn't a huge crowd, but for it's location, it was busy enough. Still, I was seen to and seated immediately with a menu. They had a full page of lunch specials to choose from. I had the Greek Combo, a Greek salad with grilled chicken, two gyro strips, two stuffed grape leaves, warm pita bread, and dressing and tzatziki sauce on the side. All of this for only $7.99! The salad and vegetables were *very* fresh! The tomatoes and cucumber were crisp, not mealy, which is a huge deal for me at least. The olives were of the canned variety, and the gyro strips were those pre-formed kind, but I didn't mind that much. Besides, the sauce tasted homemade and likely was. Best of all, the chicken was perfectly cooked; fully done, but juicy and hot, not cold and rubbery. For the price, it couldn't be beat overall! The next time I'm in the area, I will definitely try to stop in again if I can!

P.S. I completely forgot to mention, my $7.99 Greek Combo lunch special also included a cup of soup, too! Chicken noodle. The broth was flavorful without being greasy or too salty. The vegetables were still firm and flavorful. The chicken (or turkey?) was plentiful and evenly carved. It definitely beared mentioning, as it was part of an incredible value, and was another delicious addition to an already complete meal!
