The burgers were seasoned to perfection. You will not get a better burger anywhere else in Gainesville, as most others are just a greasy mess. This one is delicious and NOT greasy. Also the veggie salad is cooked and seasoned well. Very nice people, who cook their meals with love.

Some of the best Greek food that I have ever eaten. The warm pita and hummus were incredibly delicious. My wife had the street gyro and it was almost orgasmic when I took a bite. It was probably the best, melt in your mouth, most amazingly tasty meat I think I've ever had. Since this is U of F campus area, it is best to park a couple of blocks down and walk in. The parking garage was quite difficult to manage with my Toyota Tundra double cab, but we made it. The Spot is definitely the spot for authentic Greek food obviously made with much love and care. I can't recommend it enough!

Was looking for something a little different but not too expensive while in Gainesville for an appointment. We found The Spot listed not to far from where we were and Greek sounded like a nice change of pace. We ended up paying to park in the little deck right next door as all the Street parking in the area was full. When we walked in we were underwhelmed by the atmosphere... two small cafe tables inside the corner shop, a walk up counter to order from, and a drink cooler or two. The lady at the counter greeted us briefly, not rude, but not what I would call pleasant either. My husband ordered the Street Chicken Souvlaki, and I ordered the Classic Chicken Souvlaki combo. The food was ready relatively quickly and smelled great! Mine was huge!! Though they were both gyro style sandwiches, mine was definitely bigger than my husband's by far. He enjoyed his, which had the fries inside the sandwich (he didn't read what all he was ordering), but I ended up giving him the other half of mine because there was no way I could eat it all. There were pieces of chicken falling out everywhere! The tzatziki sauce was great, but the sandwiches could have used a little more. When i got to the half

The Spot, was quite literally, the best food I’ve enjoyed immensely in years! I ordered the Gyro Plate, which came with a salad, and I ordered a side of Hummus with Pita Bread. If I could afford to eat here every single day, I really and truly would! It was beyond delicious, spectacular, magnificent, fresh, and I am thankful I tried them! It’s my new favorite, and I am obsessed! Pictures just don’t do it any justice, you really really have to go try it! And please tip, it’s well worth it! I love this place very much!
