Gokos

Moscow


The gyros craze is gradually spreading around Moscow, with Greek eateries opening here and there, but this place is outstanding. Simple as it is – meat slices in a pita – gyros has never been served with so much style, not in Moscow anyway. Owners hailing from the fashion industry must be the explanation. Excellent Greek frappé, too!
