The Big Greek Cafe (website: https://www.biggreekcafe.com/) became one of our go-to takeout places over the last few years. Gyros travel well, since they don't need to be piping hot to be good to eat. We've "visited" it 9 times since October 2020, when we started keeping records.

We keep records of all the restaurants we go to and what dishes we like at those restaurants. Since we're moving away from DC, I thought this would be a good time to "publish" that "data".
Our rating system for meals at restaurants is always restaurant-specific. So something that would be fantastic, order-every-time at a typical restaurant may only get a "good" rating at a very good restaurant.
Our ratings:
4 stars - this is fantastic. You should be tempted to order this every time you go to this restaurant
3 stars - very good, solid choice for this restaurant
2 stars - this was okay, but there are better choices on the menu. Order only if you are really in the mood
1 start - this wasn't good. Don't order again
The restaurants I highlight will mostly focus on the Takoma Park/Silver Spring area, since that is mostly where we go out to dinner.
