For to-go orders, you can choose from bottled drinks and soft drinks. If you're dining in, they also have specialty teas and other drink options. They even offer beer for those who are interested.

In past visits I loved their Asobuco but none was on the menu. That's what I wanted to order. There was free baklava ....wasn't looking for free....went up to the counter to order some. Then was given two out of a bunch of stacked containers behind the register. If I hadn't inquired wouldn't have known. In past visits they always walked around with a tray and offered. This was dry as well..... I do appreciate free but not dry. I was willing to pay. I probably caught them on an off night, business was good which is always a good sign. I'll give them another shot but won't order the Chicken Chips.

Although the ownership and name have changed, much of the original menu has remained the same. I ordered the steak kabab pita, while my wife went with the steak shawarma pita. My kabab had nicely seasoned beef with a savory, grilled flavor, complemented by soft pita and fresh toppings. Her shawarma featured thinly sliced steak with slightly different seasoning and texture. Both were excellent. What I'd almost forgotten was how much I missed their pink garlic sauce and fries! The sauce is creamy, tangy, and packed with garlic flavor. They put it on just about everything with beef, but it also complements the fries perfectly. The atmosphere has changed a little but still feels familiar. It's nothing fancy, although the food is excellent and the prices are quite reasonable, especially these days. After three years away, it's nice to see Athena Pita is still as good as we remembered.

If you're looking for authentic Greek and Mediterranean cuisine, look no further than King Gyros. From the moment you walk in, the warm and inviting atmosphere will transport you to the streets of Greece. The staff is friendly and accommodating, and the service is top-notch. The menu offers a wide variety of options, from traditional gyros to more unique dishes like hummus and dolma. The portions are generous and the flavors are spot-on. I highly recommend the lamb gyro, greek salad and greek fries. But the real star of the show is the homemade tzatziki sauce, it's tangy and creamy and the perfect complement to the gyros. Overall, King Gyros is an excellent choice for a delicious and authentic Greek and Mediterranean dining experience. Highly recommend it! read more
