Popped in for some take out during the worldwide shutdown of fun aka covid-19. Cool ambiance aside from chairs being stacked up ceiling high in preperation for the inevitable zombie apocalypse. Suppose I gotta give them props for being proactive. The gal at the counter was warm and welcoming, so much so that she almost inadvertently gave us another guys food in addition to our order. I guess somewhere along the line somebody instilled some sort of moral compass and I politely declined when she offered me an extra bag of Medi... read more

Very happy with our lunch, gyro and falafel, with salad and fries. Food is tasty and fresh. Great location on Pacific in Santa Cruz. They are doing a great job with the no-contact pickup. Easy to order online and you get a text when order is ready.

I ordered catering for our department lunch and it was amazing. We had so much food. They did a great job of feeding us and we still have plenty of leftovers.

I've been to this place twice, my first time I was skeptical but this place is amazing. Their food is a about average for a meal in Santa Cruz (13-14$) but it is completely worth it in my honest opinion. I love all the gyros, but the original lamb is easily my favorite. Their fries are really high quality and delicious as well. The atmosphere is really aesthetically pleasing and welcoming, I really enjoy being in there and just hanging out. I am excited to come back and try everything on the menu, definitely recommend! The a... read more

We were in Santa Cruz on a weekday at lunchtime and this place looked to be new since the last time we were on Pacific Ave. There were veggie options on the menu, so we decided to give it a try. We weren't disappointed. The Nick's fries were good thanks to the freshly made falafels. The veggie pita wasn't bad either. The spicy yogurt and tzatziki were both good. Overall the lunch here hit the spot.

Solid, fresh and quick Greek food. I have only gotten the gyro and I have enjoyed it each time. The fries are pretty good as well. My only qualm is that it is kinda pricey for a Greek gyro spot but that won't always keep me from coming back. Nice spot to get your gyro air Slovaki fix!

Food was good but damn expensive. Ordered 3 items and came to over $35. Not economical but what should I expect with downtown Santa Cruz. Bummer
