The blue building on Alameda.

Gyros carved to order, souvlaki off the grill, and Greek sweets that change with the week.

Maria runs the front. Teddy runs the grill.

Two people, one kitchen, and a menu that never went corporate. The tzatziki is mixed in the back. The onion rings are cut here. The desserts depend on what came out of the oven that morning.

Classic Greek plates sit next to the ones Teddy invented for Texas, which is how a gyro shop ends up serving a burger under spinach and feta and nobody thinks twice about it.

Galaktoboureko

Semolina custard between sheets of filo, soaked in syrup while it is still warm.

Baklava cheesecake is the one regulars ask about by name, and it is not always there. Neither is the karydopita, or the rizogalo, or whichever tray of tiropites went out at lunch.

Ask what came out of the oven today. Call ahead and a full tray can be set aside.
