Gyro
Kyle C.

I know this place is fast casual but the entire staff ignored me, there were four of them behind the counter. I had to flap my arms and basically yell to get them to acknowledge me. I placed an order online and paid ahead of time or I would have walked out. The food was not ready when I arrived. They didn't start making my order until I asked about it. People who walked in had their orders before me! Jokes on me for ordering ahead and tipping. The food sucks, the meat in the gyro tasted like deli ham. The portions are tiny. The service is absolutely bottom tier. Take it from me and the legion of yelpers who have had 1 star experiences these past few months and avoid at all costs.

Traditional Gyro Bowl- meat really is that good at all

Food- got the gyro bowl. Don't recommend. Meat is questionable & not really good. Also got the falafel- it was decent. Better than gyro meat for sure Staff- there was a lady & man working there. The women absolutely hated her job. She was rude & on the phone the whole time. I hate leaving reviews on workers but it was just a horrible experience. I literally will never go back. The man working there was pleasant. Overall I would pass. Try La Tartine on Gay st It's a little further but it's amazing & the owner works the kitchen is so unbelievably nice. Definitely worth the drive.

Build your own pita bowl- lamb gyro with lemon potatoes

Just tried here tonight and our dinner was amazing Even my children who are picky eaters loved it! Everything is so fresh and tastes amazing. Authentic gyro meat in both lamb and chicken. I loved the Avgolemono soup!!!

(4.7out of 5.0) THE SIMPLE GREEK* It's just that simple Greek food the way we like it! Served in a fast-casual style, Simple Greek offers speciality Gyros and Bowls and/or a create your own option. One thing that I particularly appreciated was how they did not compromise their authentic Mediterranean flavors even though they are fast service facility. This is one of my pet peeves with fast casual service but this was not the case with Simple Greek. Another good sign that I wasn't the only one who felt this way was the large number of to-go orders stacked on the shelves. Clearly this is the sport to order from on a Saturday night in! I definitely will be a new regular here!

Very clean and fast! Wonderful Greek food - build your own bowl or pita. The young lady that helped me went through everything very thoroughly and guided me through popular items and her faves. The set up reminded me of a Chipotle where you can build your meal to your liking. The lemon chicken and potatoes were wonderful! I will be back!

Update (August 2022): Ok, so the trick is to not order online; order in person to make sure you get the right order.

I had the Chicken Caprese, very yummy. Great combination of mozzarella and basil plus gremolata spread. Wow, what portions I actually took home half my sandwich. Plus, we had a great server who was very attentive. Yes, the restaurant is BYOB but it is right beside the Giant grocery store which sells beer and wine. We will definitely return the next time we visit Longwood Gardens.

The food came out a little slow though but worth it. Starters: Brussel Sprouts: 5/5 delicious and made well. The skin lightly fried but not charred. The dish balance with pieces of bacon and the cheese plays well with the balsamic vinegar. Rib rolls: 4/5 The shredded short ribs could be a bit more moist and flavorful but pairs very well the horseradish aioli. Chicken Alfredo: 5/5 likely on the of the best Alfredo I have had. Grilled chicken was perfect not too dry and flavorful and the noodles cooked to perfection. The sauce was flavorful but not too heavy with cream like most places. Meat Lover Pizza: 4/5 Solid pizza! Well balanced and not overly salty. French Onion Patty Melt: 5/5 Perfect medium cook and delicious. Not too salty. Onions savory and sweet. Perfect crunch of the bread. Chicken Caprese: 4/5 It was good. Pesto brought a nice brightness to balance the heaviness of the fried chicken. Overall: 5/5 a great place that delivers well on their food. Can't wait to come back and try some of their other dishes. You don't leave feeling overall full due to the richness of the dishes

I absolutely love visiting the family owned-and-operated restaurants. And when it comes to…read moreGreek/Mediterranean business, I am all for a place that I've never been to before. This takes me to Wilmington, the largest city in Delaware where I had the opportunity to try out "Opa Opa". Located at the Village of Trolley Square strip mall and adjacent to Delaware Ave & N. Clayton St., this place has been serving up delicious Greek food dating back to 2015. I came here with my lady during the afternoon of Friday 10/10/2025 at around 2:45pm. The interior is bright, spacious, ample room for dining in, and pays homage to the blue and white Greek colors. Additionally, there are several art pieces that represent some of the more popular Greek destinations. Sodas, water, and other various beverages are available in a refrigerator across from the register/counter area. Since I was very hungry (and on my way north to Philadelphia), I decided to go with something that will carry me through the rest of the afternoon. I finally decided on their "Chicken Gyro Platter" w/fries. My lady went with their "Grilled Chicken Greek Salad". We didn't get any drinks as our waters is all we needed to enjoy our lunch. Both of our meals are ready in just under 7 minutes while everything is presented to us in a quick and timely manner. I do have to say that if you're starving, this is the place to come! My gyro was a very generous portion that offered huge chucks of seasoned chicken. In fact, the chicken to veggie ratio was 2:1 as they did not skimp on the protein. My pita bread that encased this was warm and made each bite very savory. The fries were also made well; crispy yet soft on the inside. And as you can see from the photo, the salad that my lady got was also huge. As I mentioned, come hungry and you will leave very full. All in all, "Opa Opa" was a very pleasant surprise as Wilmington offers a lot of ethnic food in all directions. This place also offers very generous hours as they are opened for business Monday through Saturday from 10:30am-10:00pm and Sunday from 11:00am-9:00pm. With above average customer service, a spacious inside dining area, reasonable prices, and generous food portions, this place earns a perfect five-star rating from me.

Service - Quick and timely. They were so nice and seated us right away on a busy Saturday morning…read more Food: Caramel Iced Coffee - Lacking flavor. Since it is hot coffee poured over ice, you get a very watered down drink. I would stick with a flavored hot coffee. Boston Cream French Toast - Creamy. From the Bavarian cream to the whipped cream topping, it was very wet for the meal. I would ask for the whipped cream on the side so it doesn't melt into the hot french toast. Side of Sausage - Great cook. These were links, not patties. The casing on the link gave the sausage a nice snap. It was served piping hot and very well charred on the outside.

The roll was good and the au jus was on point, one of the best french dips I have ever had. They definitely toast their own beef so anything with beef should be good. All of the food we had was great and everything I saw around us looked excellent. Definitely a great option for breakfast or lunch. The fries were also really good and the avocado chicken wrap seems to be one of their most popular items. The service was great and it was a nice , clean dining area with clean rest rooms. Definitely enjoyed the hash browns with a breakfast order , super crispy on the outside and very good. All the breakfast options looked excellent and the Benedict options look really appealing. I will be trying the Reuben next time so look for the future updates.
