Are here yesterday with wife and son - great gyro meat, roasted on the spit. I got the super gyro (extra meat, feta and black olives. I barely finished it, and I was stuffed. Good fries too. The salads look really good, so I plan on going back to try one!

What an experience at Khoury's! Stopped in for some authentic, fresh Mediterranean food and boy did we have a good lunch. The owner connected with my parents right away and sat with us for our meal and shared his stories. He is such a kind person who is able to make anyone feel welcome. We chose to dine on the patio with a beautiful scenery and pretty plants. Thanks to the owner for creating such a wonderful experience for us. PS: order the hummus. You won't be disappointed.

By FAR, the best gyro I've ever had!! If you like gyros, don't hesitate! And the hummus was to die for!!! Absolutely delicious!!! We had our order delivered via Uber Eats. Everything was as ordered and still hot and fresh when it arrived. Most definitely recommend!!

Fast service, great food. Has mediterranean and some fried american classics like chicken tenders if you don't like mediterranean or have picky kids. I personally got the falafel sandwich and I could tell it was authentic and it was extremely tasty. For 3 combo meals and a 15% tip it was around $50 which isn't too bad for lunch. They also have a case of treats that you can purchase. There's desserts as well as hummus and other mediterranean foods. I recommend the hummus it's TO DIE FOR. One tip I have to give to this business is I saw at least 3 different people walk up to the counter asking for silverware. It might make it easier on the staff if you put some out so you're not constantly interrupted :)

We love eating here. Their Buffalo chicken sandwich and gyro are a house favorite. The fries are always piping hot and the staff is so nice and usually pretty fun to be around. Bonus points for the soda machine- it's the kind you can add flavors to your soda with. We've never tried the desserts because we always leave full, but I can't wait to try the carrot cake!

Ordered the chicken wrap and liked the tenderness of the meat. The environment is almost like a fast food restaurant with the way it is set up. Lots of free parking available. The prices are good, just wish they added more toppings onto the wrap like more tomatoes and lettuce. Asking for more sauce is extra. The way it came out made it look like it was missing something. It was a skinny looking wrap on a paper plate with nothing else. But at least it's affordable! Next time, will go back to try more on the menu such as the gyro and falafel wrap and salads.
