We ordered the gyro bowl and 4pc fried chicken combo for two people which admittedly felt like a lot of food but it was inhaled. The older man who served (presumably Deen) was incredibly kind and funny, told us that the chicken would take a while to cook (took around 10 minutes) because everything is made fresh, and it was evident it how piping hot our food was! If you like crispy fried chicken with skin that shatters in your mouth (not crunchy), this is the place for you. The food wasn’t over seasoned nor too salty and I didn’t feel awful and dehydrated, etc. after then meal which is another testament to the quality of the food used. Simple, heartfelt, and delicious! Also, our meal (mango lassi, fried chicken, fries and gyro bowl) amounted to $36.71 and there was no tip option so please go support them so they stay in business!
