The sandwich was on the smaller side, but I liked that it was crisped up, and the beef was juicy and flavorful. The feta fries were overcooked. So crispy and hard that a fork couldn't even puncture them. The cheese topping was okay and nicely spiced. Overall, the meal was a little overpriced for the size and cost, but the sandwich itself was tasty.

It comes with seasoned rice, few slices of pita bread, gyro meat, and salad. I usually have the salad removed and there's never an issue with my modification. The white sauce they put on top truly is divine. The pricing is within standard pricing as other Mediterranean restaurants. It's always hot and fresh. They have tables inside which are always clean and it's very quiet outside of some music playing. Overall this is one of two favorite gyro spots in Gainesville that I'd recommend others to try out!

The pita was soft and pillowy and fresh, so authentic and the lamb and beef were seasoned well. The French fries were hot and fresh! I got my gyro without onions and tomatoes.

They offer blueberry picking among other stuff and they make AMAZING food. On Saturday my friend and I visited, there were a few other diners there as well. It is outdoor seating, but its nicely covered snd has fans, do it was comfortable. We ordered the lamb & beef gyro as well as the feta dip and Beef Maasa ( may be spelled wrong). The platings are huge! My gyro could have fed 2 people! It had yummy peppers and onions with Saffron rice and tasty french fries. Im from Greece, and these were better than the Gyros in Tarpon springs. I dont say that lightly. The Beef dish was so very tasty, the garlic sauce really brought out the nuances. Toward the end of the meal, the owner came out to let us know that there was Moroccan mint tea as an apartif. It was delicious. I will be sure to return again!

I definitely walked away with more food than I planned to, but I'd say it was worth it. My only critique is the guava pastries were a little dry (easily solved by sprinkling with water before reheating them) and Venezuelan Christmas bread didn't have as many olive and raisins as I expected (it was more like a stuffed ham and cheese roll). However, the soup of the day was delicious and it made me excited to come back to try the breakfast and lunch. The interior is bright, simple, and very clean. There are plenty of tables and chairs that would make this a great spot for meeting up with a friend during the week or getting work done on a weekend (though I didn't check if they have wifi).

We were out at Shands for an appointment and found this restaurant on Yelp. It's not a fancy restaurant, more like a casual/comfort spot. The staff was super friendly and service was fast. We ordered Vegetable Samosas as an appetizer and they were huge and crispy with a nice amount of spice. The chutney that came with it was delicious. My husband had Butter Chicken and I had Chicken Tikka Masala. They're both similar dishes, except the Butter Chicken has cream in it and the Tikka is generally a bit spicy (theirs is mild). We ordered the Lunch portion and it was plenty of food. It comes with 1 side - either basmati rice or fresh Naan. I had the rice and he had the Naan. If you want to mix your dish and sauce with the rice - that's' a good way to go. My husband opted for using the bread to sweep up every last bit of sauce in his and loved it. If you order a dinner portion, you get 2 sides. I believe you can get a salad also, but that may only be with dinner (not sure). They also have a lunch buffet. We came around 4pm. They also have various non-alcoholic drinks. Food comes out in little metal pans (really kept it hot) and they give you plastic dishes for serving. The appetizers and bread came in little cardboard baskets (like you get at some places for fries). We were both full when we left. Next time I'm in Gainesville, I'll definitely be back. I want to try some of their other items also.

My Fiancé loved the chicken kebab which I agree is also delicious. The owner was very personable and explained the various dishes to us.

Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully plated. You can tell the kitchen puts a lot of care into every dish. The inside (and outside) of the café is so cute and well-done -- bright, welcoming, and full of charm. We sat at the back table by the glass wall and loved the view. BUT... the service was a letdown. It's a seat-yourself place, which is fine, but we only saw our waitress three times: 1 When she brought our drinks 2 When she took our order 3 When she delivered our food That was it. No refills, no check, no follow-up -- while other tables (mostly locals) were getting consistent attention. We watched others getting drink refills, to-go boxes, and their checks brought to them... while we sat waiting and eventually had to go find someone ourselves. It definitely gave off a "locals only" vibe, and sadly, we felt overlooked. It was especially disappointing because we really wanted to love this place -- and we almost did. The food is , the atmosphere is beautiful, but the service just didn't match the quality of everything else. Would I recommend it? Yes -- for the food. Just be prepared that if you're not a regular, the experience might feel a bit cold. Hopefully, they work on that, because the place has serious potential!

Housed inside the Honda dealership on the corner of 39th and Main, there is no outside advertising... you just sort of have to know it is there. They only serve breakfast and lunch, and it appears that their lunch menu is purely ad-hoc each day, with daily specials posted on a board. I pulled up and walked into the dealership, skirting my way around the sales folks that wanted to sell me a car, and found the cafe in the back near parts. I looked over the menu, and went for a Cuban sandwich. I had to wait about ten minutes for the sandwich to be made, which is fine. They make to-order, and there were a couple of others ahead of me, so all was good. These are not the huge Cuban sandwiches you may have had at other places (all of the ones I have had were in South Florida), but it is still a decent size and at a reasonable price for its size. I got out of there for under $10. The sandwich was good, and they are going to remain on my list of places that have possibilities during the lunchtime hour as they are relatively close to work for me.
