The gyro from this place is really good. Light, healthy a great alternative for a quick lunch.

I'm trying to eat a little better so during the day this is a great stop. If you haven't been there I suggest trying it. A great product for a fair price.

Need to check and see if they have hummus because I love me some hummus.

Pretty good falafel as well.

Are these guys Greek that own it or some sort of middle eastern? They look greek or pale greek. Like inland Greek up around that Albania area.

Whatever, they do a good job.

They do but it's nothing to write home about.

I like the food.

Do they have a meditterainian hummus with olives and such and did I spell meditterainian way too long?

It's not bad. But everytime I eat there I think I should have gone to Subway for some reason.

do they have one of these in new orleans, like on magazine maybe?

Martini, they must be inland Greeks. No way they are island Greeks

If I go to Subway I think I should have gone to Extreme Pita. EP is just one of those places that I pick up a vibe that somebody really cares, not just a job. When I worked closer I was about a once a week customer.

EP's not bad......but you get more for less at Subway, if you like Subway. And, overall, a Subway turkey has less calories and fat that just about anything from EP.

Thank u, captain obvious. Subway has $5 Footlongs. No one else does that......

So, every place on Gods green Earth should make you feel like you should have gone to Subway. Franchises are cheapest franchise in America, too. Get u some.

Dude, we're talking about competing sandwich shops. Not Flemings compared to Subway, dick.

I am speaking to your rationale - given what you stated, every sandwich shop matches ur guideline

My intention was never to be a "dick" - although I do understand why it was relayed in that manner.

I really like Extreme Pita. I personally like Pita Pit better but they're both delicious.
