I know that many of you have been to this restaurant at 20th and Harvard. It is a combination of coneys and Greek food to satisfy the meat eater to the vegetable-arian.

I like his coneys, because his chili is just spicy enough and he drowns it in finely shredded cheese. My wife likes the spinach pie served on a bed of rice with green beans and greek salad (lettuce with chunks of feta cheese and olives). They have fresh baklava and your choice of French silk or coconut cream pie if you need a dessert.

The actual address is 1923 S. Harvard and the restaurant has been at that location for 42 years. We will get there around 11:45 and stay as long as the conversation stays lively or they throw us out. Parking is limited so because I plan to hang around a while, I will be polite and park a block away by the Pizza Hut.

Again, this place is very casual and you go through the line, order and pay before you sit down.

Who has a better review of the place and who thinks they can make it that day?

Gyros & rice...mmm.  I've been a faithful customer there for 30 years.

Changing opinions one mistake at a time.

Yee Ros and roll the tongue on the "r" if you want to sound Greek.

Year-os if you want to sound American

and

Juy Ros if you want to sound like an Okie  ;)

I'll be there, especially since it my suggestion that we meet there next time.   

I love their gyros platters, the rice and green beans in tomato sauce are great, I usually sub tabouli for the salad. 

Trust but verify

Me likey tabouli...

If it weren't a sit down someone take your order place, I would have suggested Shiskabob's on 31st/Garnett.  I like their gyros.  And just about everything else they make.

...and make sure the last syllable is pronounced very short and emphasis on the final 's'.

I dated a Greek girl in high school whose father previously owned a Greek restaurant before they moved here from NY.  He made my first gyros at a dinner she invited me to.  I expected to see plates breaking, but I guess that was only for the weddings.

I like Shiskabob's too.   Loved it when they had their lunch buffet.  

They own the Pita Palace at 111th and Memorial and they have set up the lunch buffet there.

I will try and be there as well, as it's a straight shot from work on the BA to Harvard.
