Grecian Gyro

I love everything I’ve eaten here, but the «Tuesday Night Kids Special» is shameful. My kids love gyro’s; how could they have a kids menu without a gyro???

Less than stellar, got gyro plate very small meat portion. Server appeared disenchanted to be there just wanted to go home. Gyro meat was tasty but again very small portion & must be a shortage on greek olives as only received one. Thought I’d try baklava for like desert very syrupy and tasted liked been unwrapped and left in grandmas pantry for days. Not a fan!

They are still open. I went today. Gyro was delicious as usual! A lot of people were waiting, but I received my food quickly enough. Status quo…

This place is closing in a few weeks. I was informed on 6.14.15
Enjoyed a good gyro and suffered a soggy cannoli.

This was the worse gyro I have eaten. It was greasy and had no favor. I when I asked others from the area and they say the same that it is bad. I will never eat here again.

This place used to be good. but what happened? they used to have the best greek salad and now its awful. Who uses mixed greens and red onions on a greek salad? brown lettuce makes up most of it.
I used to get one 2 times a week, but wont anymore. Greek salads should have iceberg or romaine…
the service has also been horrible lately. Unfriendly workers handing the drive through.

So I had a craving for some stuffed grape leaves and decided to try this place. The restaurant had just opened so it was pretty empty the service was ok. Nothing extra friendly. I ordered a gyro wrap and of course stuffed grape leaves. The meat was good but the wrapped lacked in Sauce and I didn’t even know there was a tomato there. It was ok. The grape leaves not so good. The were really cold and not so great. Maybe a second try wouldn’t hurt

Best gyro I have ever eaten. Perfect balance of lamb with crispy edges, sauce, and pillow — like pita!

Very very delicious! We ate in and the service was phenomenal and the prices were extremely reasonable for the amount of food you get. The meat was tender and flavorful. I’ve been to Greece and so far in the states this has been the most authentic!!! Try it out!!! You’ll be a regular…

I don’t like gyros, tried it but it wasnt for me. I usually get the grill chicken salad without dressing when I come here. Its okay I’ve had better. But for somebody who like gyros I’ve been told theirs are great.

Service was Ok, food was not very tasty and they only put old onions and tomato on the gyro. It was mushy and my stomach is a little disturbed. Probably bacteria. Not what this place used to be. Last time here.

This location appears to look dirty. My experience was horrible. I ordered humus and pita. They put an olive on top. I went to eat the olive and cracked my tooth due to a seed being in there. The olive was not on the menu. No indication that seeds are in the olives. I went reported the incident to a manager and she said she wanted to post a note about the seeds and she said their lawyers advised them to take the note away. I was shocked. This is a horrible place to dine. The humus wad tasteless so it’s not good food.

I had the chicken gyro. It was pretty good. I forgot to tell them no tomato but other than that this thing had just the right amount of white sauce and onions. The chicken was pretty good but I wonder if it was the sauce or the the actual chicken.
Anyways, the establishment looks okay. I didn’t know they had more than one which is cool. Maybe I’ll head to Dunwoody one day soon & try their location. This one is close to my house. It was good enough to return. Maybe next time I’ll try something else.
The wrap smelled fantastic from the back once I got it. I kept smelling it before I got home. The aroma alone makes me want another. LOL. I definitely enjoyed my wrap.
They also have a drive thru so if you know what you want without having to look through the menu a bunch of times. go the fast route!

Awesome food, friendly service, great value. Come here all the time now.

Maybe, I just picked the wrong day to visit! Thanks to the Grecian Gyro, I experienced food poisoning for the 1^st time… Vomiting, horrible diarrhea, fatigue, nausea, and stomach cramps! After checking they’re health rating on the CDC website, I learned that had been cited for not keeping the meats at the right temperature. Good Luck with this one…

This is essentially a Greek fast food restaurant. If I lived nearby, I could totally see myself rolling through the drive through once a week. It’s pretty good, convenient food.
This place was very affordable and offers all the Mediterranean favorites. They have gyro, falafel, hummus and stuffed grape leaves to name a few menu items. Pretty much everything is available either stuffed in a pita or as a platter.
I was impressed with the stuffed grape leaves. They tasted just like what I have had before at a sit down Mediterranean restaurant. I also had the vegetable stuffed pita which had tomatoes, lettuce, cucumber and onions stuffed into a warm pita with a drizzle of taziki sauce. That plus a drink, and my lunch came in about 8 bucks.

I have driven by this place for years — up and down on Lawrenceville Highway — but never stopped. Well I was in the food for souvalki or a nice salad, so I decided to finally try it out. I love when ethnic restaurants play traditional music and don’t pander to Top 40, so Grecian Gyro scored immediate points for music you could actually hear outside. They have a few tables outside and although it looked deserted from the outside — it was 3 p.m. on a Monday — they had quite a steady client stream for the time I was there.
I don’t know much about Greek food, but I do know the prices here are astonishingly low. This is the plus of going a little bit outside the perimeter — this place is probably 3 miles east of 285 — and the value of the food was great. Gyros and wraps were only $ 5! I was in the mood for chicken, dolmades and a salad and when the initial cost came to $ 12, the helpful employee said she wanted to figure out a way so that I could save some money. She did some manipulating and I only ended up having to pay $ 9.50.
The food was very good with just-​right portions. Now that I know about this place, I will definitely stop in more often.

Grecian Gyro is a small Greek franchise with several locations in the Atlanta area. This review concerns the location in Tucker located on the intersection of Lawrenceville HWY and Fellowship RD.
The building itself is nothing much to look at. It’s a rather old with a blue roof, that as one user pointed out, resembles a converted fast food restaurant. The interior is small and unremarkable with several tables and booths on one end. Sometimes the restaurant feels as if it could be a bit cleaner. The handle on the tea dispenser feels greasy. One jack wagon customer was too lazy to take his used plate with crumbled up napkins and plastic utensils the required 10 feet from the chair to the garbage. I mean, seriously, do people really think it’s standard in a restaurant like this to eat your food, get up and leave the trash on the table?
Now, to the reason I came here and you should, too. The food. It’s really good. I’ve actually only had the gyro as while there are other items on the menu that look delicious, I’m currently indulged on a fix on such a sandwich and not ready to try something new just yet. It’s not the best gyro I’ve ever had, but it’s definitely good, affordable and made very quickly. It is what you’d expect — roasted lamb meat served in warm pita bread, with tomatoes, onions and «Grecian Sauce.» I don’t think it’s Tzatziki — at least I can’t taste any cucumber or yogurt in it. It tastes more like a tangy and garlic-​y Ranch Dressing to me. In any event, it’s good and compliments the meat well. The meals are also served Grecian Potatoes, which I prefer covered with the sauce.
If you’re in the area and in the mood for Greek food it is certainly worth checking out.
Four stars for food (pricing considered). Service — n/​a. Atmosphere — n/​a.
Pros: Good food. Fast. Affordable.
Cons: A little dingy on the inside and out.
Verdict: Recommended.

There I was, frolicking in the meadow on the edge of the forest… when I noticed something. A large block, whitish in color, was glistening in the sun a couple of yards from me. I approached cautiously. I bent down and sniffed, and then licked it just to get a quick taste.
Salt! I continued to lick it. I couldn’t get enough. What a find this was! It sent tingles from the tips of my antlers to the end of my bushy tail.
But then… something occurred to me… Was this too good to be true? A delicious treat, carelessly left alone here?
I thought for a moment, and then…
Wait a second…
I’m not a fucking deer.
So why, Grecian Gyro, did you give me 800 times the recommended daily allowance of sodium in just one meal? The loukaniko was salty enough, but then you served me potatoes that tasted as though they had been soaked overnight in salt water, and then roasted with salt and herbs, and then sprinkled with salt before serving, and then finally served with a side of what amounts to a thick, liquefied salt solution.
If you’re one of those people who lick the salt from pretzels, then you might like this place. Otherwise, I’d advise against eating here, unless you enjoy sodium-​induced hallucinations about being a woodland creature.
Overall, ³⁄₁₀.

Love Grecian Gyro! Sure, it’s probably the Mc. donalds of Greek food, but fast food ain’t exactly languishing stateside! I got the #1, basically the wrap combo with potatoes and a drink, all right around 8 bucks. Very good tasty food! One thing I hadn’t seen before, but was asked by the cashier was if I had my «tour of Greece» punch card? What’s this? When did you start giving these out??? So I snagged one (and you should too) and plan to use it to get my free meal after 9 purchases. Where i’m concerned, that wont be very long!
Give the Gyro a try and they wont let you down.
