"everything was great, I got the Chicken Shawarma and husband got the Gyro Supreme and an order of Breaded Mushrooms to share. Both were loaded and well worth the price. Also gave plenty of Breaded Mushrooms cooked perfectly. Highly recommend"
"Gyro Palace is my go-to Greek restaurant when ordering on Doordash. Gyro Supreme used to be my favorite Greek food, but the Chicken Shawarma here has altered that opinion. It tastes fantastic. Portions are just okay for the price, but everything is fresh. We have had inconsistencies with the flavor of the Hummus, but when it's good, it's great."

"I've been the the midde east before and was told I had to try authentic arabic schwarma before I left, and I can tell you, this place was on par with if not even better than over there. Cannot reccomend it enough. The Chicken Shawarma Wrap (large) was fantastic, and the fries were seasoned to perfection and perfectly crisp. 10/10 "
"I recently discovered this restaurant, and it quickly became one of my favorites. I love the food here. I love all of the grilled meats, I love the charred onions, the rice is delicious, the wraps are amazing.. everything I have tried has been well seasoned and cooked to perfection. I already cant wait for my next meal here. Nothing is super heavy or greasy, it's comforting, nourishing food. The portions are large and the takeout boxes are fully packed, which also helps it hold its heat for the drive home so you can enjoy a hot meal without reheating. There's also plenty of space to dine in, and plenty of parking as well. Give this place a try, I'm sure you'll love it!"

"Italiano Sub is definitely a 5/5 ALL THE WAY!! Potion size and flavor is excellent! For the price Marcos is the winner above alot of other Pizza establishments! The Steak & Cheese was a 3.5/5 due to alot of chewy pieces, but seriously my husband said he has had worse for more money! He has high standards for steak.. coming from him trust me 3.5 is my 5 . So basically a 4! Either way don't go with our standards go with your own! Try it I doubt you will be disappointed!! Marcos will always be my choice late night over ANY OTHER PIZZA ESTABLISHMENT! I really like Marcos at anytiime of the day.. This location is the best thanks Marcos!"

"My Breakfast Toast was delicious! The Guacamole was so fresh! I also got the Yogurt Parfait, for the 2nd time , it is so fresh withthe seasonal fruit! I don 't now where they get their blueberries, but they are sooo sweet & yummy ! The bottom of the Yogurt Parfait has some delicious sweetness, that left me feeling happy ;:) The Drip Coffee was good. They have an option for coffee " Leave Room". I have never seen this as an option anywhere, but as a person with a mobility issue , this was amazing ! I got a 12 Oz coffee and selected " leave room " it was just below the lid line and I could safely carry my hot coffee ! As a person with mobility issues this was HUGE !!! Ty Socialite !"

"Food tasted old. I asked for large order of Catfish Nuggets and it look like I got a small order and they don't seemed too cooked throughly. The Mozzarella Sticks are burnt and there's no cheese in them and no marinara sauce included. The Jalapeño Poppers are burnt too and doesn't taste good either.

While the Happy Tender Pack was good, this has been about the 4th time that the 1 pound pack fell very short of being an actual pound even with all the packaging included. It's too bad, because if wed gotten the full pound this would have easily been a 5 star review."
