    Menu and Place to Order
    Matthew M.

    This is a great place to stop and have lunch. I ordered the Gyro Lunch with comes with fries and a drink for $10.99. It was very good. The staff is always super nice and the restaurant is always clean. Great local place!!

    Absolutely terrible service. I would give 0 stars if I could. We placed an order for dinner tonight. My husband stated there was a dairy allergy and we requested salad without cheese and sandwiches without sauce. My husband picked up our food and immediately upon arriving home noticed that the sandwiches were covered in dairy. We immediately called. We spoke to the cashier who told us the sandwiches would be remade for us. We asked if she wanted us to bring the other sandwiches back. She said let me go ask someone. She came back and notified us that we didn't need to bring the sandwiches back but could come right in to pick up the corrected order. My husband said great I'm on my way back and I'm not bringing the other sandwiches. She said okay see you soon. My husband arrived, the new sandwiches were done, but because we didn't bring the old sandwiches back they refused to give my husband the new sandwiches. He explained that we had just talked on the phone and showed them the photo of his sandwiches covered in sauce. They still refused to accommodate us. He did not have time to drive back and fourth for a third time. They refused to let him leave without paying for the corrected sandwich. I immediately called and asked to speak to the manager. The cashier told me that she was the only one there along with the two cooks. She refused to provide me any way to contact her manager, when the manager would be in, anyone else I could speak to, or give me her name. She did not offer an apology and had a horrible attitude on the entire call. We had been coming here on a regular basis since they opened and referred many friends and family there. When I explained my disgust with the way this situation was being handled and that they made us pay MORE money for THEIR mistake and that we wouldn't be coming back she said that was my husband and my fault. I asked her why she would change her mind after telling my husband and I explicitly that we didn't need to bring the wrong sandwiches back. She said it was from her "manager" who is not in the building and cannot be contacted.

    Never really had Greek food before, so decided to stop here and check it out. First impressions are it's a small but extremely clean and well put together place! The menu has a variety of foods and I decided to order Salmon dish, as well as a few other varieties to try things out. The server was very friendly and helpful. I was the only one there and I don't know if it's what I ordered, but there was a decent wait for the food. Maybe about 20 minutes? During that time two more people came in, got their food and sat down. They possibly called ahead, but I'm not sure. The music was basically shopping mall background noise and I had no service in the building so it made the wait seem even longer. When I got the food it looked absolutely create and tasted wonderful. Smaller portions when it came to the salmon than I expected, but the quality was there. It could just be personal preference or what I'm used to, but it was a quality over quantity dish. Food was absolutely great, and for the price I just wish I had more. Overall, not my personal preference on a few things, but it's an excellent place to try out. I'd recommend it to someone looking for this type of niche environment.

    This is a newer location to the Apache Junction area, and I really like how they've changed the location from the previous owners. The music and seating creates a great experience, though I wish there was internet/cell service while dining in. I loved how fresh all of the vegetables were, and overall the food was pretty good. Definitely some items that I preferred over the other, and know that's par for the course when trying a new place. Definitely try the Greek Quesadilla with no meat, it's delicious!

    Greek salad with grilled chicken

    Wow! I love Greek food and stopped in for a Greek salad with chicken to go. They did not disappoint. Greek salad was loaded with grilled chicken. Also got the tzatziki dip and this was also amazing. Will definitely be back when I'm in town.

    Bare, old, soggy "Greek fries."

While in the area to show a vacant space for a potential massage business, I felt a bit hungry and was delighted to discover this charming Chicago Hot Dog restaurant nearby. I ordered a delicious gyro with fries and kindly requested the lady at the counter to prepare my fries without salt. She was incredibly friendly and happily obliged, frying a fresh batch just for me. I truly appreciated her willingness to accommodate my request. During my visit, there was an unexpected moment when another customer choked on their food. Thankfully, another patron quickly called for help, and the fire department arrived in just five minutes. I am so grateful for the swift response of the firefighters, who handled the situation with professionalism and care. Overall, my experience at Chicago's Number One Gyros was filled with warmth and kindness, and I left feeling thankful for the delicious food and the attentive service.

Last night's visit solidified for me that it just isn't good here anymore. We used to love this spot, but our dinner last night felt like a series of unfortunate culinary choices: The Dolmades: They arrived sporting a weird, opaque film complete with unexplained chunks. It looked less like a traditional glaze or olive oil and more like a science experiment gone wrong. The Falafel: I'm not sure if these were meant for human consumption or if they were mistakenly harvested from a Lego set. They were minuscule, aggressively overcooked, and packed a random, spicy punch that felt more like a defensive mechanism than a flavor profile. The Gyro: The classic toppings were a bit of a ghost town. It featured zero tomatoes and a generous helping of onions that had definitely crossed over into "spoiled" territory. The only pleasant part of our meal were the spanakopita, which are obviously purchased, not made on site. It's genuinely disappointing to see a reliable favorite slide so far downhill. Here's hoping they can channel a bit of Joe's original standards and turn things around, but for now, we'll be getting our Mediterranean fix elsewhere.

That's BS even googling this scenario they say a place should not delay your order for a later order. Won't be going to this place anymore. Edit: the owners response is asinine. If they had some big order that was before mine, they should have told me the pickup time that I requested could not be fulfilled. And if the owner can read, I stated that I walked in for my pickup, they charged me, and then told me I have an additional wait. I wouldn't go here if I were yall, if they cannot be transparent, I question if they are taking other portions of the business seriously. Now the "under new managment" makes sense.
