Orbit Gyro & Grill

A cheap take-out joint around the corner from my house that we tried one saturday night.  Menu is pretty extensive with typical menu items for a place like this.  Food is fresh for the most part, the fries were not...they were probably sitting for a while.  The sandwiches were great and plentiful.  The guys in there seem to own the place because I've been here a few times and its always the same 3 guys.  When they get busy, be prepared to wait a very long time for your food because they will need to make everything.  I recommend calling ahead and confirming your order and checking it before leaving(they messed up our order once)  Good, cheap fast food if your craving it.

Horrible experience.  Was expected to eat cold food that sat at a stranger's home for 45 minutes.

There was an order mix-up, which happens, I understand.  Called ane explained, then again at the half hour mark of the wrong food sitting in my living room.    After 45 plus minutes the food arrived cold and missing the 2 lr. bottles of root beer and lemonade, replaced by a single can of RC.  

I called and let them know the food was cold (fries, burger - not even a bit warm, the salad was ok) and explained it was unacceptable and the guy on the phone only wanted to hear that I got my food.  After insisting I got "We are busy, why don't you take the food and i'll give you something free the next time you order from me". (lets skip the part where he tried to convince me it was new food and also that he never promised me new food) Finally I convince him to replace the order, but the soonest they will deliver it is one hour with the attitude that I am trying to cheat them.   It comes sooner along with another order in the building, of course sans the drinks, the Gyros bread I paid an extra .75for plus some of the food I paid for was missing.

The initial telephone ordering process took 20 minutes.  At the time this did not seem noteworthy as there were  obvious sounds of trade and food preparation during the numerous long pauses, but, the guy I was talking to became increasingly annoyed with me for still being there every time he came back.(so much so i began to question that this was the same restaurant that aggressively menu'd up the neighborhood)  There was a problem with their credit card machine, so I told them not to run the card we'd go to a cash station and pay cash, and they called back to tell me they ran the card.

The food was so so,  not as good as Food Xpress, but I wanted to try something new.
