The restaurant has been "in the works" for over a year, and, as you can imagine, residents of Hartsdale have been waiting to see if what was finally unveiled has the staying power to make it on a tough corner with no parking. Our review:

Pro's
The flavors are great. The shrimp were of outstanding quality with subtle flavors of lemon, parsley, and oregano. The lemon potatoes were so tasty. The grilled chicken was moist and flavorful. The food taste reflects all of the best things about Greek cuisine, fresh, flavorful, and bright.

Con's
The grilled chicken pita sandwich came with french fries in the pita. This style of sandwich may be suitable for some areas but locals here are health conscious and the restaurant should warn you the fries will be in the pita rather than on the side. Also, there was too much tzatziki on the sandwich -- it was overkill. The lemon potatoes were oversalted.

The shrimp platter had too few shrimp for the pricetag of $ 20 and the only side options were carbs (french fries, rice, or potatoes). It would have been nice to see a veggie side or a small salad side option. Overall the protein to dish ratio was a little underwhelming and that makes for less of a value than it should.

The owner seemed friendly and enthusiastic and the space was welcoming. The food took a bit longer than it should considering there were only two other people in the restaurant. The decor is simple and pleasing. The tables should be wiped down after each guest and we did not find them that way when we sat down. The Greek music was lovely but it seemed outdated -- poppier Greek music would make for a hipper vibe.

We will definitely be back, in fact I will try it again this evening for dinner. read less

I'd ordered gyro sandwich twice and it was really good! The meat is just right and not too dry. The flavor is satisfying when adding tahini sauce and feta cheese. I don't usually have fries in it as the pictures have shown as I make a request to have without it.

Stop EVERYTHING you're doing.  I've just discovered you favorite new take-out.  The new owner has taken a good gyro place and made it exceptional!  The bread is warm and soft and delicious, the gyro is SO melt-in-your-mouth good, and the sauce--you're nothing if you don't have the absolute best Tzatziki,... read moreStop EVERYTHING you're doing.  I've just discovered you favorite new take-out.  The new owner has taken a good gyro place and made it exceptional!  The bread is warm and soft and delicious, the gyro is SO melt-in-your-mouth good, and the sauce--you're nothing if you don't have the absolute best Tzatziki, and this is THE BEST.  Portions are big, everything is fresh, and the price is right.  You have to try everything on the menu--highly highly recommend! read less

The food is so fresh, and cooked right when you order is. That being said it is a little pricey but you pay just over $15 for a giant platter you will get at least 2 full meals out of it.

I highly recommend for something faster than a sit down restaurant or a casual place to eat. There aren't many parking spots or seats inside but it seams like most people take it to go anyway.

Try the titziki and French fries! read less

I had a Greek Salad along with a Chicken Souvlaki and they were fantastic. Fresh salad and the chicken was cooked to perfection. I'd met the owner who was hospitable and helpful and he served us our food. I felt like I was eating a great meal with friends. And i'm very happy to know that I can have this level of food to go. I will definitely be back. read less

Was a great find! Its a no frills gyro with quality. Was looking for a quick meal and they delivered. The staff was friendly and the place was clean. Definitely glad to find this place will go again when I'm in the mood!
