Steak on a Kaiser.
This place is so good and the staff are so friendly as well. You are looking to spend about 10 bucks for a meal but it is so filling and tasty. You get these huge burgers with all fresh toppings and some great bread. The location is good and the dining is nice and comfortable. If you are a burger man then this is your kinda place. Don't forget about the Big Pit Burger too! So good! -

Amazing food fast service!
Get the Combo #1 with 1/4 burger with homefries (which includes 1 huge onion ring) and drink for only $6.80 (not including tax)! -

I can't count the number of times I've been here, or the number of friends I've brought here who hadn't been. Great good and the hours make for a great combo and the staff are just awesome.
The steak on a kaiser is great and the onion rings are little slices of deep fried deliciousness. As long as i'm in the GTA, i'll keep coming back. -
Review from Myrem D.

Nothing out of the ordinary about this place, but def fills you up quite nice. For $13.00 a plate, you will get you a skewer (chkn souvlaki) , rice/fries/onion rings,salad and a pita plus a drink.
The food type is mostly Mediterranean & Greek.
They are very generous with the portions so feel free to split a plate between 2.
The venue itself is odd. When you walk in there's 2 sets of booths to your right, then a long hall to the cash/order taking area. Then the area opens up to the left with more tables/chairs. The bathrooms are along the hall, towards the entrance.
I come here if I am craving a hearty lunch/dinner. The line up is quite fast and the cooks are extra friendly to the ladies.
It's the 2nd restaurant I've been to in Mississauga that has cook/kitchen-customer interaction. I enjoy this.
Parking is free but it's a terrible hassle. Make sure to drive slowly into this tiny lot to avoid any accidents. Also, this area is very high volume so traffic is almost always an issue.

Had lunch here today after accidentally finding this place when I was in town with a work colleague in August. We wanted to go to Quiznos but it was shut down! Very interesting place. I'd call this a Greek themed greasy spoon. Today I did not want heavy grease so I had a Greek salad with Donair meat. Very nice fresh salad and the Donair meat was greasy and tasty good. Also this was just over $13 with drink so I was happy. Everyone else was ordering steak sandwich and fries and burgers. You know a good greasy spoon when most clientele are all guys!

Review from Justin M.

Okay, the grill is okay. The burgers/souvlaki are tasty and enjoyable.
But I'm not here to talk about the burgers. No.
I'm here to talk about the rings.
I stop in for lunch. Get a burger combo, decide to try the rings.
Heaven. Little (and by little, I mean huge) circles of deep fried heaven.
They're, first and foremost, light. Not densely breaded, not thick, not hard to handle. LIttle halos of joy. If there was a hamburger saint, he'd have these rings over his head as a symbol of divine grace.
They're fried, but they aren't greasy. So important, that. And they're big. You only get six or seven, but they're all a mouthful.
The burger was good. The pop was reconstituted sugar water. But these rings will get me back in, and soon.
So good. So so good. The five stars are for the rings. -

I just never get enough of this place. There are three things that I may possibly order depending on my mood, and I am always, always, *always* in the mood for at least one of them.
It is no secret that the suburbs are bereft of interesting and tasty independently-owned eating establishments. I mean, there's a few, but seriously...there's a *few*. This is one of my few. The Fire Pit goes down in my personal history as pretty much being my first exposure to fast food of the anti-McDonald's variety. The original location very near my childhood home disappeared at least 10 years ago, so imagine my joy when this place sprouted up sometime later (maybe 5?). My old friend had been brought back to life.
Though I am too old to have my mother drive me everywhere, once I am out of the downtown core...well, she does (I don't drive, ok?). When she is feeling particularly generous, and I am feeling particularly greedy, I manage to swing a ride over here. If you don't have a mom as awesome as mine, you just might not make it into Mississauga to enjoy the bounty, and that would be a shame. The burgers are fantastic, but it is usually the glorrrrrious steak sandwich and extras-laden souvlaki that I struggle over committing to each visit. Everything is just so plentiful, juicy and tasty (the one thing-- the rice that comes with the souvlaki is kind of plain, but I don't really mind since it kind of plays backdrop to everything else, soaking up the other flavours), that going there always feels like some kind of magical treat. I'm so serious.
Last but not least: the service. Best service I have ever had, anywhere. The whole staff is incredibly friendly (I know them pretty well by this time, but they were like that before I did...), always chatting, joking and topping burgers, salad and whatever else with about twice as much garnishes as most people do (when prodded, even). Anybody who puts five pickle slices on my burger without my asking is obviously my guardian angel.
