Fodor's Review:

The first thing you'll see is the large rotisserie, trumpeting the ubiquitous gyro -- tasty slices of meat are stuffed inside a large fresh pita, with tangy yogurt and some exemplary fresh veggies. Other Greek specialties, such as stuffed grape leaves, moussaka, and, of course, souvlaki, round out the menu. No pomp and circumstance here -- just casual taverna fare and service that's often indifferent. But they must be doing something right -- Souvlaki just celebrated its 30-year anniversary, definitely a record on this mercurial street.
