    Order the Traditional Greek pork gyros. Each pita gets a mountain of sliced ultra-porky pork and just enough tzatziki, lettuce, and tomato to cut through the fat. This is what a real gyro looks like. Read more

    Chicken gyro > pork. Wait for good can be long, especially cuz the meat looks ready, but the fries make that wait so worth it. Skip if you're on a diet because the fries and rice are the bomb

    The chicken gyro with the BZ sauce beats the pork IMO. (The BZ sauce is excellent) incredible amount of meat, but nice and thinly shredded. Good value.

    A delicious modestly priced Greek place. The meats are tender and the fence fries are fried to perfection. They always give you enough onions. Highly recommended.

    Start with a mountain of fries. Smother with olive oil, oregano and feta. Broil until charred and melty. Achieve nirvana. Read more

    You have to get the gyros! I always get mine half chicken / half pork. They always make sure to stuff the pita with meat!

    They live up to their claims - some of the best gyros in the city. Fast and friendly service in a comfortable, laid back atmosphere.

    The pork was cooked perfectly and the fries were top notch as well, although the chicken was on the drier side

    The pork gyro is out-of-this-world delicious. Especially with that amazing tzatziki sauce.

    To be honest, not bad at all for a sandwich. Hi at the lunch time (even a little bit after ) and take the lunch special for $10. Soda + French fries and chicken sandwich

    If you want to travel to Astoria Queens for food, you must stop here! The price is right and you won't leave hungry at all. My personal favorite is Souvlaki Pork Platter. -Ed Cotton, Top Chef

    Chicken Souvlaki platter is where its at. Huge yummy portion! Totally have to try their wild cherry juice...add in a little ginger ale or sprite for supreme yumminess.

    Sometimes this is not on their online menu but the Holoumi Sandwich with BZ sauce is the best thing to eat outside of their gyros.

    Inexpensive place. Falafel is good here, open late, but lication is tucked away and not so noticeable driving by ;- )

    Lacking beef/lamb gyro is weird, but the succulent pork makes up for it.
