Time Out ChicagoMay 8, 2013With the carved chunks of impressively juicy meats, fresh toppings and pliant pitas, these are among the best gyros you can find in a city rife with cones of don't-ask meat.
Dana TedescoJanuary 24, 2013What's with all the negativity?! I loved this place! The meat was juicy and the pita was fluffy & buttery. I will deff come back to try the other sandwiches & more healthy sides!
Serious EatsMay 13, 2013The lamb and beef gyro is the antidote to every middling, greasy, overstuffed, and disappointing gyro that uses slices cut from one of those uniform cylinders of meat.
Jay PJune 4, 2013Super tasty pork gyros. Like getting crispy burnt ends and juicy meat in every bite. Above average fries. Recommended.
Roy MApril 12, 2013If you want a traditional Greek Gyro this is NOT the place for you. Beef, and Chicken Gyros were not good. Beef was more like skirt steak consistency. Garlic feta fries were very good. Parking sucks
Danielle S.November 4, 2012Get the Greek fries! Same price as the regular AND they come with garlic, lemon and feta cheese.
Dave NathanDecember 20, 2012Free meter parking on adjacent side street Honore after 6 PM. Don't eat a gyro dry here; get a sauce.
Tina HarrisJanuary 18, 2013Covo sauce on the gyros. I won't judge you for dipping the fries in the extra.
Jalil McgeeMay 3, 2013The service is great but sadly the original gyro meat is very chewy. Taste just like thinly cut steak.. Not lamb :-(
Sharif N. and Rachel W. are complete fucking idiots. Good luck finding a better gyro!!!
Rachel S.November 18, 2012It's like the Greek cousin to Chiplote. Same concept and menu layout, different cuisine. Meh.
