Atlantis at Bradlee shopping center in Alexandria is better.

There seems to be a Greek place at just about every shopping center of any size or significance. I've sat down at half a dozen of them and my impression is that they are all at least pretty good. Favorite would probably be the Pan Am Family Restaurant at Nutley and Lee Highway.

Havabite is reliably great, and not a chain. One family place, been there a long time. All should patronize whenever in Fairfax City.

I always request Halal meat wherever I go, it throws the servers off guard.

Plaka Grill isn't bad, but they always ask you "how is your day going" right before they hand your the bill". You could be standing at the register for 10 minutes waiting for your food and they don't say a word, it's only when they give you the check.
They think they are out smarting you to leave a tip. That's when I pull out the one-finger salute and hit the road.

I had the Gyro at Ledo's and it was really great! Great sauce and meat as well as the feta.

I had the opposite problem, it was too big on my iPhone. I do have the latest one though, and maybe the picture is bigger because my phone is better.
Ate lunch there today - it was great - awesome patio

Gyros and Greek salads are street food. Like banks and dry cleaners, you can find good Greek stuff almost anywhere.

Grill Kabob Herndon is run by the people which ran Reston Kabob which was in the shopping center (now apartments plus somehow Popeye's made it?) where there was a 7-11, bank & a dry cleaner off of Sunrise Valley Drive close to Reston PKWY.

I have only been to the Grill Kabob in Reston, but if the Herndon one is serving the same chicken by the same recipe as the one in Reston (it should be, as they are both part of a chain), it bears little resemblance to the superb chicken kabob that Reston Kabob made. Same is true of the available sauces/chutneys. Grill Kabob nowhere close to Reston Kabob.
Also, when those apartments were being marketed/opened, the developer was saying that Reston Kabob would be returning to one of the retail spaces at street level. I don't think that has happened yet, if it ever will.
Popeyes survived because the land it sits on was separately owned, and the owner declined to sell to the developer.
