Through the confidence that our chef and owner Angelo Velonis has infused into his recipes, his cooking and his business operations today Alexandros is known a well-loved and consistently sought out addition to the tables of countless appreciative diners in Toronto.
When Angelos began in 1997 Alexandros first location in Danforth did not allow for an easy beginning to the business; the look of the gyro was new and different – the chef’s omission of frozen ingredients to create meals that are as close to natural as possible, the way they are filled with an abundance of fresh herbs and personally sliced, it was and is still a completely unprocessed style of the food that had set in apart from other Greek establishments in Toronto that had come to be relied upon for a consistent and expected Greek taste. Alexandros was distinctly set apart right from the start and today that is its strength. Angelo’s personalized recipes and commitment to high quality ingredients and homespun approach in the kitchen are the reasons why Alexandros has come to be known as the place in Toronto where diners can get world famous gyros, our signature mouthwatering Roadhouse burger, and a scrumptious chicken souvlaki made exclusively with real chicken breast, guaranteed!
