Looks appealing but it was anything but. Unfortunately, I’m sick so my friend was kind enough to get me some chicken soup and it was probably one of the worst chicken soups I’ve ever had. It was extremely salty, bitter, and I don’t think there’s chicken in there…would not recommend soup. And it was nearly $6 for such a small portion at that.. again would not recommend this meal but looks like their gyros are popular

I can safely say that I am an expert in fast street food. I ordered Gyros from this place. And I want to declare with full responsibility that this is the best Gyros of my life!!! While I was eating it, I was in seventh heaven! It's sooooo tasty and fast. I recommend to all lovers of fast food to try this masterpiece of culinary art at least once.

I was at the Roslindale library with me 5 years granddaughter. We stayed there for hours and never wanted to leave the favorite place of my granddaughter, but we were feeling both hungry. I said to myself; “ let me try Effie’s place. I have never tried that place.  I ordered pork gyro, French fries, spinach pie and cheese pie.
For years I never had a gyro in USA like the one I had in Greece. Delicious 🤤 .
The spinach pie and fries were very good too, but the cheese pie which I got for my granddaughter it wasn’t what I expected.
Thank you Effie.
We will be back soon.
A gem to our neighborhood.

Great food, no nonsense atmosphere. Love the gyros. I used to go there all the time back around 2005. My job took me far away.
I recently came back & stopped in for a gyro. Great memories in the flavors of my youth.
Thanks Effie, glad your still going strong!

Now this is The Best Gyros and Souvlakia in the Area.
The Chicken Souvlakia 😋are so Tender and Flavorful just as if you were in Greece at a Taverna. The Pork Gyros 😋are Straight OG (Original Greek) so Good 😋. The Spanakopita is Fresh and Homemade as is the Tzatziki Dip.
The Village Salad is so Delicious especially if you add some of that Pork Gyros Meat or Grilled Chicken on Top 😋. The Service was Great and The Owners Effie and Stavros are Absolutely Amazing. 👉FYI They are Closed for the Month of August for Vacation 👈
I Highly Recommend Effie's Kitchen!👍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
