Sehr leckeres Gyros: außen knusprig und innen saftig mit wenig Fett. Dazu Pommes und Zaziki + Zwiebeln. Mein Gericht war absolut i.O. und ein netter Service dazu. Tipp: nicht so spät eintreffen ,denn das Gyros geht recht zügig weg.

In unserem Fall haben wir im Laden bestellt. Somit kein Urteil für Service und Ambiente. Nach 30 Minuten wurde der Akropolis Teller und der Taxiteller gelieferten was zeitlich vollkommen in Ordnung ist. Beides war sehr schmackhaft und das Fleisch einfach nur genial. Pommes selbst ausgekühlt (habe mich erst ums Fleisch gekümmert) noch knusprig. Fazit: Ja die Preise sind gestiegen aber wer macht sich zum Abendessen schon 4 verschiedene Fleischgerichte? Und 16 Euro für die Qualität und den Geschmack, pro Person, finde ich vollkommen OK. Klare Empfehlung!
