A great little snack shack on the Toronto Islands. The Gyros and Souvlaki were generous and tasty, and the portion of fries was also pretty big. The staff were friendly, efficient and good natured, sharing a smile and laugh with us as we ordered.

Obviously super busy on a sunny Saturday ! And still managed to serve over 20 person in the 15 minutes I waited. And this was at the end of the day and they showed no sign of being tired. The crew that works this kiosk are a well oiled machine. That being said I ordered a gyro but got chicken, no big deal but would been 5 stars if they got the order correct.

These folks are so friendly. The prices have gone up but the portions were larger than expected for this touristy location. For pet owners: their patio area is not pet friendly so you’ll have to dine at one of the picnic tables farther away. Come early because there was a lineup right at 11am when they open.

This is our favorite gyro place! Is THE BEST. We wait for the season to start to come and enjoy amazing food, amazing staff (George is always amazing!) and amazing views! Our 4 year old is fan of the chicken gyro with rice. Fries are amazing and the falafel is incredible!

Compared to prices on the island, the pita is reasonably priced and tastes great. Simple but I'd recommend. The guy on the till could be nicer but the girl preparing the wrap was very friendly.
