Even though I was full, I ate with pleasure.
It's really delicious.
The friend standing at the cash register is a friendly, talkative and good person.
Only the table was a little dirty.
I asked for water and waited for a glass, but it didn't come.
Everything else was great.

This is the most authentic Döner I’ve had in SF (I’ve tried many of them)! It’s the only place I’ve seen that has the meat on a vertical spit, like they do in Türkiye. I’m so happy I came by, the prices are very fair, the restaurant is clean, and the owner is super nice.
I came here twice during the same week to try more items.
The combo gyro on a pita, was exceptional, you can tell that the meat is high quality and cooked perfectly.
The second time I got the Mediterranean combo place which was unreal (lamb, chicken shish kabob, kofte, and both gyro meats), with rice, salad and hummus.
Literally every item tastes good, highly recommend this if you’re hungry. Lastly, the Turkish coffee is also great! I honestly can’t say enough good things about this spot, you gotta come try it out!

Came in for lunch one day on a pretty nice day.
They had their doors wide open, and didn't have a lot of customers inside.
Order a chicken gyro plate and a drink.
Didn't have to wait very long for the food to come out from the kitchen.
They set down a basket of pizza bread, while we waited for our food.
The food is pretty good.
Portions also pretty good. There were a lot of to go orders and pick up orders that I noticed.
I think this place may be quite popular around the neighborhood.
The dining area and the bathroom could be a little bit cleaner.
Overall, okay place to drop by for a quick bite.
