It’s real, and it’s spectacular. Gios is a gas station, convenience store, and full on bbq joint

I live in Altoona and will occasionally make treks all the way out to Gio's just for their food. It's fantastic

I’ve lived in PA for all 35 years of my life. Gas station restaurants kept me alive for two years in my alcoholic phase. Think of Gios as a barbecue joint that also has gas pumps.

If you're ever in Murrysville (east of Pittsburgh on 22), the Marathon station has some of the best gyros I've ever tasted.
