Corvez Burke: The taco's are amazing. They have chimay red.
Atlanta: A local favorite lunch spot offering fantastic Greek food. Opa!
Eater: Get a gyro at this takeout-only spot and you won't be sorry. But make sure not to annoy Nick, who can ask for your order and threaten to kick you out of the space in the same breath. [Eater 38 Member]
Anisha Bose Kollarik: The food is always good and you have to appreciate Nick's gruffness. He just told a couple that added extras to their gyros, "you're messing up a good sandwich with all that stuff."
