Amazing Gyros and even better chips, came here for a late night feed with a mate and was not disappointed, family run truck. The chips had this amazing tangy seasoning and the portion sizes were huge, definitely worth the price. Recommend for anyone to come here at least once.

I can confidently say this is the best Greek food I’ve experienced since moving to Melbourne. I had the Lamb HSP and my girlfriend had the Lamb Yiros. Honestly rate this 11/10. Really good seasoning on the chips and the cuts of meat were juicy and full of flavour. Super friendly owners. I will be back again soon!

Delicious souvlakis ! A lot of the Chicken pieces were charred beautifully. Def the best chicken souvlaki I have had to date ! I got here at 6.30. Waited for about 25-30 mins. And there was a line and service was slow but totally worth the wait !

Their chips seasoning are delicious!!! Did not expect much with the chips but seriously it makes me wanna come back here for more. We got Yasou HSP - layer of chips, cheese and meat. It was delicious. Meat was so tender & tasty - not the usual dry we usually got in a gyros or souvlaki. I just hope they could give us more sauce. About service, not a complaint. The price is so cheap and reasonable - so cannot expect much. Both owners are really friendly. It is a bit slow (10 mins to order & 20mins for food) - because they have long queue and short of staff.
