Our signature souvlaki dishes feature proteins made from wheat, soy, and mushroom marinated for 60-hours, delivering that irresistible "meaty" flavour you've been craving. 100% Yia Yia approved!This is not your typical plant-based fare.

    4 pof us went on a Wednesday Night. The place wasn't suoer busy so that was good. We sat in a booth and ordered the all you can eat wings. The wings came out very quickly and were very tastey. One suggestion for the Staff, they should provide large paper bib's for you to cover your clothes. As hard as I tried, I still managed to get sauce on my top and hands and face. Was a great night. I went home very full.
