Even with their sights set on eternal glory, the well-greaved Achaeans besieging Troy had to break for dinner. Today's Groupon brings bounteous Hellenic fare across the wine-dark sea and straight into your mouth, the skilled breaker of horses: for $7, you get $15 worth of Greek fare and drinks at Papa Gyros, with two locations in Canton.

The friendly Mediterranean maestros at Papa Gyros whip up a wide-ranging menu that dons Parthenon-sized portions of flavorful, authentic Greek fare. Fresh and warm pita pockets surround each of Papa’s savory gyros, hemmed with a fresh fortification of tomato, onion, and tzatziki sauce ($5.49). The delectable Grecian salad ($4.49 small, $6.29 large) acts as a lusciously leafy lead-in to the Philly chicken pita ($5.49) or as an engaging digestive companion to the dazzling dolmades' munchable grape leaves ($3.89). Douse the torch of hunger with the mighty Olympian platter, a stomach-taming digestive feat of gyro meat, souvlaki, Greek salad, rice, tzatziki sauce, and pita ($9.89). Papa Gyros’ food sculptors have cemented their chops in two Canton locations, rendering the restaurant a delicious destination for either dine-in or carryout.

• Papa Gyros is the best ever! I went to the Cleveland Ave. location before they opened the Belden Village/Jackson Township location. Both restaurants have different atmospheres but they serve equally wonderful food. Large portions, reasonable prices, and the best-tasting gyros ever! – Bryan, Yahoo! Local
