"Wow. I was skeptical when I saw a 4.6 rating for a place that brings back the 90's vibes. We were looking for a really good gyro sandwich. I even called ahead to make sure that they used fresh sliced gyros. So glad we came in here. From the moment you walk in the friendly service makes you feel like you're a long time customer although it was our first visit. The great service is just the beginning. The owners generosity was apparent in the food and let me tell you that everything we ordered was exceptional. Gyro was thin sliced and cooked to perfection. Plenty of the amazing Tziki sauce makes the whole experience next level. We had Cheeseburgers which were buy one get one free, and they were both made just like the picture. What an amazing deal. 5 stars all the way. This is a neighborhood gem and I'd go out of my way to stop in. Keep up the great work guys."

"Kismet is by far the best place in the area for a gyro, cup of cream of chicken soup, fresh custard and much more. The gyros is cooked to perfection, neither too dry nor too crispy just tender slices of delicious meat. Not to mention the pita is light and fluffy while still so sturdy. The amount of food that comes with the gyro dinner (plate) is outstanding. You can easily make four fully stuffed pitas. Today's restaurant climate has turned to higher prices with smaller portions and lower quality but not at Kismet! They take pride in preparing their food. I'm always glad to see a neighborhood restaurant sticking to their true values. Stop in for a gyro and/ or cup of soup today!"

"So I have ate here half a dozen times in the last three weeks. The burgers are fantastic you can tell they are from a butcher shop/ not some frozen crap from some discount club The beef is made in house and its amazing. Hot dogs are good according to my son. And the Gyros are great as well . The owner is super friendly and down to earth ."

"Absolutely amazing gyro platter. Perfectly seasoned, generous portion, and packed with flavor"

"Visited a few weeks ago! Firstly, the service was great, warm, and helpful when ordering. The food tasted good, I ordered a double cheeseburger that I thought was decent and average sized. My middle score comes from the price and lack of offering, I thought it was a bit beyond competitive pricing, wasn't a fan of the no combos, and if you purchase a $4 10oz small cup you only get one free refill. I think it's a bit of a price gouge for the quantity and portions."

- Katarvis T.

"Amazing food and excellent service! Had a hot dog and a grilled chicken sandwich and both were better than any home made food and it was super friendly. Very delicious Chicago dog and the chicken was seasoned and cooked wonderfully. Hot and delicious. Definitely coming back when I'm in town again."
