Small, casual place where you walk up and order, eat in (including outside dining) or carry out. The wrap sandwiches with lamb are wonderful. They also offer carry-out complete dinners if you order in advance. Wine offered by the glass or the bottle.

Okay, but both the food and atmosphere has that sterile feeling of a large chain.
Taziki's has the best salad in town. The only prolblem is that it is only sold on Friday's and Saturday's. It is the special on those days. It is mixed greens with tomato, feta cheese and grilled chicken. It is topped with a balsamic vinegarette and fresh basil. My husband and I eat this most weekends. The food is always fantastic. I highly recommend it.
Nothing special here, in the food or the atmosphere. Wish they would serve real pita chips with their sandwiches instead of ordinary potatoe chips. Still; it is a convenient place to get Greek food with several locations around town.
I agree with the post about the Friday special being the best salad in town. I too, have it every single weekend without fail. Sometimes I have them make it with either lamb or shimp, instead of chicken. It's fantastic either way.
Love their Thursday Pork Loin Sandwich Special and their Friday past special. The chicken roll up is pretty good in my opinion. Also, they have great pasta salad with feta and the roasted new potatoes. Not a huge menu and it's definitely not a place for picky eaters, but I do like it.
It just doesn't seem as good as it used to be. Something has changed. They seem to big --chicken was tuff. My Lamb gyro(my old favorite)tasted frozen or old.I hope it gets better.
I like to go there and order a HEAPING BOWL of PASTA SALAD and maybe get a SIDE order of gyro.
Taziki's pasta salad is, without a doubt, the best pasta salad in the entire city, maybe even the state.
I usually eat at Taziki's JUST FOR THE PASTA SALAD. It's that good. I usually order my pasta salad with a side of Lamb Gyro.
The guy above doesnt often make sense.
