Very accommodating to my request for both dairy and gluten-free food. At least one of the servers (an older woman) was knowledgeable about the ingredients in the dressings. The pita bread was unusually tasty. It was so good, we ordered several to take home with us. We were just passing through and weren’t sure when we’d have an opportunity to come back again.
Was on a long drive home & needed to stop to grab some dinner. The staff was very understanding and informative of their ingredients. The wait for the food is not long.
Really great experience overall. Staff was super knowledgeable and accommodating! Just be careful with the spreads- I think the server didn’t realize that half of the spreads are not gluten free (we didn’t either) which led to me unfortunately getting glutened. Otherwise, really great experience and would recommend them!

Very accommodating to gluten allergy! They immediately asked if it was an allergy when I requested a GF pita. They cleaned everything off and knew exactly what sauces and toppings were safe.
Great gf pita. Super helpful. They asked if it was an allergy or preference and made in a separate area with uncontaminated spreads and sauces. I’d get the beef/lamb gyro again. Falafel and fries are gf but I didn’t try them. Husband enjoyed his regular gyro too:)
Everyone was super kind and helpful said they knew what gluten was and cross contamination however I got gluten contaminated
GF pita! Menu items marked. French fries & falafel in dedicated GF fryer. GF “allergies” treated seriously and prepared separately. It was yummy & I felt great afterwards!
Told them I had Celiac/ gluten allergy and they took the necessary precautions to avoid cross contamination. I’ve had the place twice now and have felt fine afterwards. The staff is also very friendly and accommodating.
Amazing food! Everything was great, good quality well cooked and delicious! So many options and well informed and prepared gf meals separately
Incredible food. Be prepared to wait a little extra. They have a separate area that they will sanitize and ensure safety if you ask for gluten free. The pita is amazing. I really appreciate their efforts and the food is just really good!
Just as good as the reviews have promised. Immediately asked if I had a gluten allergy and when I said yes, they took tons of precautions. The food was excellent too!
Delicious Gyro Pita wrap!!! Only place with gf gyro, along with all the other meats which are gf. The falafel and fries are both gluten free also, and they’re the only things that go in the fryer. They had a gf marshmallow rice krispy bar too. So satisfied, and so happy they put tin foil around the pita when they warm it to ensure safety!
Amazing! Very attentive to gluten sensitivity. Changed gloves, separate spoons to dish up all toppings, fresh protein for my "Bowl". ALL proteins are gluten free! Rice is also gluten free. They have GF pita also if you want a wrap. Yes, it's amazing!
