But the one with the same name unfortunately provided 3-4 dolmas for 8 bucks that were dry. A spa greek salad in a small soup bowl9no feta?). Including some other items that did not leave a lasting impression. The portions were more like rations! I now know the meaning of quantity control. Hope they can adjust as setting is very nice with great patio. Well meaning responses by the owner must be validated by quality not rationalizations ..............................

I was very excited to try them but sadly disappointed! Service took forever even though there were only 2 other tables outside. The greek salad was just ok, tzatziki ok, gyro nothing to get excited about, I asked for my lamb souvlaki med-rare, it came very well done, they forgot my pita. My food sat in the window while I watched to see how long it would take to be brought to me. The service really needs attention! Based on this review I will try again and repost.

Where else can you go where the owner is always there are talks to nearly every customer? Too expensive? I've paid at least that or more at any number of Healdsburg eateries for a basic sandwich or hot dog, most of the time of a lesser quality. We're locals and we'll be back.

We were so excited to go and went for lunch one day. We waited forever for our food and finally received the Dolmas - they were fine but we thought overpriced for the tiny appetizer that arrived. We also ordered the greek salad and that fell flat. The dressing was near tasteless. It was a very boring salad to say the least. Also, the Gyro was ok, not great at all and we think way overpriced. If you are charging $14 for a sandwich (at lunch time)... it better be off the hook - not like something you could find at a food court in a mall. The service really needs to polish up quickly and the prices need to come down if you want the local support. Sorry, I had to respond as it sounds like 2 different restaurants here.
