Absolutely delicious! The chicken is amazing! The red bean soup is to die for! Great new spot in town! Service is great as well

Piri Piri Chicken grill delivers a great new flavor to our town. The flavor is robust and well blended. The atmosphere is quiet and very relaxing . The option of outdoor dining with your pets is very welcoming seeing we do not have much of that here! I suggest trying this wonderful family owned place.

Love supporting family business’s that also reflect true culture from other places. Food is great and the staff are awesome. Feel like family and tastes are outstanding. Try the wings it’s a FAV!

Located at the former Gyro's King location. We had the Shareable Sampler and let me tell you it was the bomb💣. It did not disappoint. (I will not share next time😜)Well seasoned NOT SPICY. The chicken and the lamb cooked to perfection, oh and the rice excellent. Will definitely go back.
Forgot to take pictures🤦🏻♀️

AWESOME!!!!!Just ate here and I WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK!!! Some of the very best, authentic Greek food I’ve had in a very long time. Portions are ginormous, quality and very well priced! Atmospheric is soooo clean and welcoming. Makes you feel like you’re in Greece in a small restaurant on the water. You have to eat here!!!!!

We were at the Gyros King on Saturday fairly early at around 4pm and the restaurant had just opened and started filling up fast. The service was great and the food delicious. We ordered an appetiser and 2 mains and sadly all arrived at the same time- or actually maybe quite good, otherwise I would have eaten my grilled Feta and gyros appetiser and could not have managed my Mahi Mahi Pitta. We took the appetiser home and had a nice Sunday treat. My husband had the Greek meat sampler, again a great portion served with a fantastic, fresh greek salad as a side. All in all a great meal, great service. Thank you all.
PS make sure you look at all the Specials-boards along the wall. There were a lot of great treats we hadn't noticed. Next time we'll know.

What a surprise!
This is an authentic Greek eatery close to Rainbow Springs State Park that I personally just didn't expect to find around here.
And the food... was really, really tasty.
Not only this, but they had Greek bottles of beer, and I liked those, too!
On the first visit, baba dip, tabouli and roasted potatoes appetizers were great, plus a shrimp, calamari, and scallop dish over orzo pasta - excellent, best baba dip and pita I've ever had.
Second trip was a Greek salad appetizer and a grilled lamb chop and shrimp entree with tzatziki sauce and pita to accompany on the side.
I'd recommend the shrimp, calamari, and scallop orzo pasta, and definitely the baba though I'm sure there are many other delicious dishes here to try.
Also, the bathrooms here are called "water closet" 🤷

Super cool little place and the food was very tasty! In the mood for Greek food this is your place. Definitely check out all the boards for the off menu items. Plenty of seafood choices as well. Definitely a nice little hole in the wall local restaurant.

A nice little location that gives you the chance to taste some of the most well-known Greek foods. I recommend the lamb gyro and baklava.

Great food and friendly service!! I really wanted to try the delicious looking desserts but was too full. If we happen to be in the area again, I will definitely eat here AND have dessert - even if I have to take it to go! Lol
