Fast food subway gyro. This was the worst gyro I ever had, tasted like a subway sandwich. Please consider fry sauce or taziki sauce on your gyros to make them more authentic tasting and feta. Lettuce shouldn't come on gyros either. The gyro I got didn't look like the ones presented in the picture.

The service sucks here do not go after hours. They don't keep track of their orders as they gave away my food to somebody random . Looks like it is run by some callous folks that would rather close than to get their food right. Weak sauce avoid! The one star rating is a gift for real.

I'm vegan and I asked for their vegan options, they recommended Veggie Pita with hummus, I asked them twice to make sure it didn't have tzatziki sauce as it has yogurt, the veggie gyro har tzatziki, they added it and forgot the hummus, right away I felt it in my stomach, I asked and showed the lady at the register and she asked them and I saw the guy talking her in Spanish that he added the tzatziki because it came with it and she lied to me and told me he didn't add it but you can see it in the plate, I've had it before I w... read more

Red head at the front gave huge attitude, so much so we ended up taking our order to go because we felt uncomfortable dining in. Also back bathroom door gets jammed just FYI but don't ask her for help or let her know about it or you might end up feeling uncomfortable too. Definently not welcoming at all.

Meal was fine but the service was poor. The attendant who took my order was disinterested in my questions about the food and told me their bathrooms were closed early and had no suggestions on where to use a facility nearby. Female attend with red hair and nose piercings. I've worked in service and can understand it can be difficult to say no but there's no need to add a choose a approach to that conversation.

desperately want to leave these guys a great review..... Last month, I came down to Santa Cruz for work and the office manager ordered Nick the Greek for us. I really liked it and, earlier this week, when I came back to Santa Cruz, I asked her the name of the restaurant because I likekd it so much. Tonight, I ordered over $200 worth of food. I live 4 hours away, out in a tiny town that has absolutely NO decent food (our town has 8 restaurants--all of which offer hamburgers, an assortment of sandwiches, and--if you're lucky... read more

Disgusting, cold meat, smelly onions. Tomato pieces looked like they were cut in 4th. I ordered, went to the restroom to pee and came out and my food was ready (within 2 min of ordering). Yes I appreciate food that is served fast but not THAT fast. Food was clearly sitting there for a while, employee sloppily put it together and put it out. I ate the fries, that's the only good thing about this place.

Good lamb and beef gyro but the pork belly was fucking gross. Big chunks of fat like wow is this even cooked. I dont like to eat pure fat chunks. My lamb beef gyro was good but greasy

I've been here several times and they are out of sriracha sauce and I leave. Just trying to get the word out to the owner/manager. I'm going to stop eating there. Why not get a few cases at Safeway if your vendor Cisco is out . 

Business response:

Hi Collin, I understand your frustration but there is a national sriracha shortage world wide. I understand you might be able to still find some at large grocery stores but that is disappearing fast as well. The shortage has been in the news (google). Supply chain levels not expected to be normal until September. If you have some you may want to hang onto it or bring it with you when you dine out as this is out of our control. Sorry for the inconvenience, as soon as we can buy it again by the case I will have it for you.
