Serops Express

I decided to try Serops and I was very pleased. The food I recieved was full of flavor. I just moved on my own and it was nice to have food that’s not packed with preservatives and grease. I got the #1 and ate it for lunch, dinner, and lunch the next day! It was so much food! I will definitely be returning.

I give a lot of 5 star reviews, not because I like too however if it’s worth my time to sit down and write a review, then it’s most likely worth 4 or 5 stars, or just one or two if I really want to tell people to avoid the place. This place is great, it deserves a 5 star and I want people to know that they should go here when nearby for lunch or dinner.
Turns out the guy who runs it lives on the same street as me. He runs this place with his brother and his mom. All of whom are there every day they are open. As busy as they get, they know their regulars by face and what they (like me) are going to order. This place gets BUSY at lunch time. They’re fast, and the food is consistently good.
I live closer to one on Perkins, but I work near this one and it’s 2 minutes from my office. Being on the Ideal Protein diet, this is the ONLY place I can eat for lunch, it gets that extra star because they are fast and affordable. For $ 6 I get a Junior Combo salad with dressing on the side and sometimes I’ll get tomatoes. But the meat is always tender and well spiced. The other thing I like is that they use leafy greens in their salad. The other Serop’s location uses iceberg lettuce, and I’ve mentioned this. For a meaningful diet, iceberg is OK, but the leafy greens give you the vitamins you need for that part of the diet like Ideal Protein.
Their salad dressing is awesome, for a dieter like me, can’t beat it. I wish they sold their dressing by itself, I’d buy it. They serve their salad already mixed in it but I get my greens naked and dressing on the side and dip as needed. Just a taste is enough for a forkful of salad greens.
I go here probably 2 to 3 even 4 or 5 times a week for lunch. Sometimes I eat there if I can get a table, other times I get it to go. Parking is a bit of pinch as the lot is small, and vehicles are usually large. There’s a Starbucks there and a Chinese place next door. Getting in is easy, getting out is harder. Nonetheless it’s worth the effort.
People are nice, food is great and affordable and they consistently deliver. You’re always greeted with a smile and if they remember you, they’ve practically made your order by the time you walk up.
The other location on Perkins needs to take a lesson on how customer service and quality of their menu delivers here and copy it as I try not to go there. Each Serop’s has it’s own hours on the weekends, so make sure you check if you’re on a Saturday or Sunday to see if they’re open as they do most of their business between 11 and 2 on weekdays.

Solid Greek option coming into Baton Rouge right off of Highland Road by I-​10. I stopped in for a Gyro plate, and was not disappointed. It was not the best I’ve had, but it was good. The service was also worth noting, with friendly people behing the counter.
BOTTOM LINE: Yummy Gyros, large selection of food.

Having been to both this location and the downtown location in the past, I dropped in last week for take out and reassessment of this fast-​food type restaurant. I ordered chicken shawarma, hummus and sauteed eggplant plus spinach-​lentil soup. As usual, the chicken was moist and well seasoned. Hummus did not disappoint and the sauteed eggplant just melted in my mouth. The spinach lentil soup was excellent (especially with a twist of lemon I grabbed from the ice tea station). If I had any complaints, it’s that they only give you one piece of pita bread. Then again, I did not ask if I could buy an extra piece. Another complaint is that they close at 8 PM, far too early for a New Yorker such as myself (also work late whenever I am in town).
Feb 2014 Edit: I am upping to 4 stars. These guys make really good homestyle food! I’ve tried several of their fast-​food type joints and always walked out with great satisfaction. It is one of my go to places in Baton Rouge.

Serops Express has really good, fresh Greek as well as many other items served deli style which is great when you are pressed for time.
Chicken Shawerma is very good as you might expect. For variety, try their Lentil soup, some of the best around. Also recommend the creamed spinach, and stuffed squash. Try this one. Service is always fast and friendly.
