They have all you can eat mussel night and I will definitely go back for that.

The food was fresh and super flavorful. The secret is that the meat is cooked over wood fire which gives it the unique and delicious flavor. Not what's expected from a food truck, but greatly appreciated. The service is a little slow, slow it's suggested you either order ahead of time or be prepared to wait at least 15 minutes. We took the opportunity to order while we waited which gave us some time to unwind. The opener even came to our car because it was so cold out, so there was that added extra service. As for the ambiance, don't ask for it... you're on a busy road (middle country road/25) and there not much more. Because if that, the prices are low and there more focus on the food quality and customer service. I will be returning. Yum!!

The lamb gyro I got was such a great portion, I wasn't hungry until late night. The amount of ingredients in the gyro besides the lamb, cucumbers, olives, and celeries, makes it incredibly flavorful.

He went out of his way to make sure we were enjoying everything and even offered us a taste of his freshly made soup -- which was amazing and such a thoughtful touch. That kind of hospitality is rare and speaks volumes about the heart behind this place. It's so important to support small businesses like this that are clearly built on passion, integrity, and community. Gourmelos is doing it right, and I'll absolutely be back.

The halumi fries were soooooo delicious- OUT of bounds good. We both really loved the spinach pie and the portion. Extremely well seasoned. I was only dissatisfied with the pork souvlaki on the skewer being that it was dry and hard to remove from the skewers. Also I'm a fan of some lettuce in my salad ( could be that since there was that concern over Taylor farms that there wasn't lettuce in my Greek salad) but for me I prefer it. So I'll have to go back when lettuce has been cleared for consumption!

I love that the portion size was large enough that I had it leftover for lunch again the next day. If you're in the St. James area, I would highly suggest checking this spot out asap.

As we got there little after 7:30pm, the gyro was sold out. It's alright as I ordered the Meatball Kofte $22 while my wife ordered the Lamb Adana $23, and my son ordered the Lamb Shish Kebab $24. Each order comes with a good amount portion of rice, one piece of grilled jalapeno pepper and quarter cut tomato. I will say the rice was just a tad salty. Portion wise for the protein was on point too. The lambs and the beef was flavorful and not dry at all. Everything tasted very warm and it didn't feel at all just sitting in the cold. Each order also comes with a side red cabbage salad which was absolutely amazing. Overall, the food was a big hit. Both John and Taha were very gracious and helped answered all our questions. I will say this place is very large and it would be good if they make some use of the space and put in some nice decor touches for folks dining in. Also offer free cups of water for diners. Lastly, given there is no bathroom for patrons, they should at least think about placing some hand sanitizers for diners. Based on today's visit, I will definitel come back and try other selections like the branzino.
