I was in the area, and Ibe been craving a gyro rice platter. And this was conveniently nearby. The absolute best rice platters I've had! With the sauces, great spice to their red sauce mat it refreshing and the gyro meat, the best I've EVER had!! My spouse said best gyro they ever had aswell i've tried the halal guys in NYC and they don't even compare the this place! It's a little far from where I live but I'll make my way back one of these days for this food truck! Didn't take any pics we were so hungry but looks like what what pics show. And a very good amount of food!

Tried here for the first time today. Never had falafel, gyros or shawarma before today. I am so sad I’ve never had it before because this food was absolutely delicious! So fresh, so tasty and seasoned so well. The truck so clean and sweet lady and nice super friendly. I will definitely be back for more next week. I’m still full from just eating and thinking about going back there is making me hungry again! Wow!

This is by far the best lamb over rice I’ve ever had, maybe even better than the halal trucks in Queens. 10/10. Owner makes everything fresh and in house. Fantastic food habibi.

Google sent me on a circle to get there, but it was worth it because the food is delicious. I had the lamb, beef mixed gyro. I really recommend it. They also have many choices. If you're heading South Lakeland Ave, they're a food truck on the left hand side on the same parking lot as Marathon gas station.
