So today i was craving a good old fashioned Gyro, having looked for a bit i stumbled upon this corner shop tucked away among the shops. Over all the staff were very pleasant and friendly. All the workers here are passionate about the food and the shop where they work. Over all the food reflects the dedication and love the workers put into the food they serve and hits well at home. It itches a scratch i didnt know I had and Ill be back hungry for more.

I worked at a Greek restaurant as a teenager and every gyro or cheesesteak I've had since then has failed to measure up to those memories. That all changed when I walked into King of Kings. The vibe and the flavor was exactly what I had been searching for all these years. I'll be back next time I'm in Wilkes Barre. Keep it up and don't ever change, I mean it.

Polite service, very knowledgeable of the product, had the happenings cheese steak it's roughly on between 2 pounds, robe eye / gyro meat 2 types of pierogi, I added the hot and sweet sauce, can't forget the cheese. Bun was soft it tasted like it just came out of the oven. Big thumbs up! Recommend to all. Watch our video this coming weekend on either YouTube or Facebook!

I arrived very hungry about 5 minutes before closing, the place was already all cleaned up and they still served me. I felt bad but they were more than happy to make a gyro for me. It was my first ever gyro and it was delicious. The atmosphere felt very welcoming and friendly. I will definitely come back if I'm ever in town again.
