--- F O O D & D R I N K S --- We wanted something healthier before we hit the road so we were glad to come across this place for meals with salad/vegetables. FALAFEL "SANDWITCH". Not bad. The falafel was a little dry but it had some hummus to help pull it all together. It was the better choice between the two items we ordered. MEDINA'S GYRO BOWL. This was meant to be served as "gyro over rice, salad and fries."The cashier, who was also the cook, advised beforehand there wasn't any rice, so my husband asked for more meat instead. When we got the bowl, we only received gyro and salad and it looked exactly just like that--a gyro salad. The gyro was sometimes soft and somewhat moist and other bits were crispy and dry. We wish we could've had the fries along with it since we were missing rice as our carb but we weren't sure why it wasn't included. _______________________________________________________ --- S E R V I C E --- We rang the bell and the cashier/cook (entering from the entrance door) quickly rushed inside behind the counter to put on his apron. He seemed a little distracted as he received a phone call, but quickly put it down so we could order. While we were ordering, he may have been distracted again when his family came in. After 20 mins., we received our meals. He kindly set down our food and said "If you need anything else, feel free to let me know". 5 or 10 mins. later, he walked outside with a woman (coworker?). A customer came in not too long after, and the woman in red let the customer know the cashier/cook went on a quick store run. That's when I realized that our fries were missing. As much as we wanted to inquire and enjoy them with our meal, we had to forgo them and get back on the road. _______________________________________________________ --- A M B I A N C E --- This place is tucked on the side of a latin to-go restaurant which connects together alongside a gas station mart. It's definitely as it looks on the outside--just a small side of the building. The "restaurant" itself is only an ordering window that looks into the kitchen and variations of the menu on the wall. Pretty straight forward. We sat in the shared-seating dining area, quickly, ate our food and went on our way. _______________________________________________________ read more

I really wanted to give Arslan's Gyros a better review, but I just could not get past one major issue. One of the bowls we were served in was melted, and the plastic had clearly eroded into the food. That was hard to overlook and honestly took away from the entire experience. The location itself is very casual, set inside a gas station alongside another restaurant. It is simple and no frills, but the person who greeted us was warm and welcoming, which I always appreciate. There are a variety of options to choose from, and we ended up getting one of their bowls. Flavor wise it was decent, but I would strongly recommend getting the sauce on the side. They tend to douse the food in it, and it was just not something I personally enjoyed. Having control over the amount would make a big difference. I think there is potential here, and with a bit more attention to detail, especially when it comes to food safety and presentation, this could be a much better experience. If the bowl situation had not happened, I would have given this a higher rating. read more

Wow this place is a hidden gem in Quartszite. My standards are pretty high when it comes to food and I was not expecting something so delicious to come from a restaurant at the gas station! My boyfriend picked up a chicken gyro while I waited in the car and he told me there was only one sweet older lady working - I hope they never go out of business! read more

Was out walking in Quartzsite while charging my car and happened to see the sign for gyros and decided to give it a try. The owner/chef/operator was so friendly, offered us a sample of falafel and we decided to order. I had the falafel wrap/sandwich and my daughter had a chicken wrap/sandwich. Both were made to order with fresh ingredients. So tasty. The owner has been in business for a year and I hope he does well. He had all the makings of a good business. It's inside a Mobile gas station convenience store in the corner so a bit hard to find, but well worth it. I've tried places inside gas station before thanks to Yelp and haven't had a bad meal yet. read more

Very friendly staff! I called ahead to verify they were open & they did miss the call but called me right back!! We were super impressed with the meal! Everything is made to order & so tasty! It is deceiving cause it's in a gas station but don't let that fool you! Delish! Fresh! They don't have fountain drinks but do have a good assortment of cold canned sodas. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed!! Considering the alternatives this place is such a gem in the middle of nowhere! Ty for a great meal in our way home road tripping!! Beware they do close at 7PM, so make sure you get there early!! read more

We bought food from here as a healthy alternative to Carl's Jr across the street. The owners gave us a sample of the tasty falafel too. The chicken gyro was huge. I added a bit of salt. I didn't like the cooked onion inside. It makes the gyro sweet. Better to get it raw. I was hoping for tzatziki sauce and feta cheese, olives. You might be able to ask for that. The salad had a nice dressing and feta cheese and plenty of chicken. Definitely a good place if you're near here. read more

Attached to a gas station but don't let that deter you it's absolutely delicious. We ordered the Gyro bowls with the fries as the base. The gyro meat is so flavorful and has great spices.

Best gyro i ever had. Unions were grilled to perfection and it was packed with meat. I have Zero complaints. I appreciate the experience from Teddy. Great cooking! read more

This little GEM is hidden in a tiny gas station on the corner of a busy intersection. The owner is super friendly. Today he was giving out samples promoting a variety of products I wasn't familiar with. Maybe he always does but I truly appreciated the tastings. The gyro was absolutely filled with meat and veggies. A good mix of everything. There was so much meat I had to start with a fork. The meat is so tender and flavorful. Not much to look at for a store, BUT definitely worth the stop. Tucked away in the back of a gas station, quiet and dark. Really enjoyed and service and food. I hope to get back through here. Skip the fast food restaurants. Swing in here for a quick bite!! You'll thank me!! read more

Wow I'm seriously impressed! For a restaurant inside a gas station food court, I did not expect the quality of the food to blow me away. The owner's daughter took our order. She was so sweet and helpful. I sampled their falafel and loved it. I usually don't like falafel because it's usually too dry and bland for me. Their recipe was unique and flavorful. Moving onto my order. I got the gyro sandwich combo. I tweaked it around to get just what I wanted: with fries and rice as my sides. That way I could share with my baby. It came out to be a dollar more. Omg the gyro sandwich was phenomenal and overflowing with gyro! So much flavor and just so satisfying to eat. Their fries also had a unique savory citrus seasoning. I inhaled my food because I was hungry. Sorry, no pic. This is a must try when you're in this otherwise desolate area! read more

Never thought I'd have the best gyros I've ever had, in the middle of the desert! The owner was so sweet too. Definitely worth it!!

What a treat to find after an exhausting weekend of rock buying. Who'd have guessed that I would find authentic Melomakarona (nut-stuffed syrup cakes I first learned about in Astoria Queens, there frequently called "phoenikia") at this little "fast food" place tucked in a food court by the Quartzite freeway exit. I got the chicken gyro bowl with salad and my friend got falafel on pita. Very tasty main dishes, followed by the melomakarona and some big pieces of baklava, washed down with authentic turkish coffee (Arslan brought the handmade brass briki to the table so I could pour my own coffee!!) Now I have a new stop to visit when I make the drive from San Diego to Arizona and points east. Will also check out his family's booth at the farmer's market in Oceanside on Thursday afternoons. read more

The food is A-Okay but the service was amazing. There are not a lot of options in Quartzite so it was nice to find a Mediterranean option. I tried my first falafel here and I'm glad I discovered something new that I enjoyed eating. read more

What a Quartzite Gem! My husband and I stopped here on the way back home to Phoenix, this is by far some of the best Mediterranean food I have had west of Astoria, NY. We were already on the road when I had wished that I would have ordered some extra hummus. The falafels and the gyro meet were both cooked to perfection and so tasty! If you are looking to cater an event, I would definitely suggest you reach out to Arslans Gyros! The two gentlemen that waited on us were very kind and appreciative of our business. They offered us a sample of the falafel, which I was planning to order, but that sample sealed the deal! #falafelsandwich #gyrosandwich #ArslansGyros The ambiance is the ambiance for a roadside eatery. read more

Wanted to love it but ingredients were not typical just loaded with lettuce, etc. Not as much meat as expected for the price. The meat wasn't freshly sliced as advertised on the website, it was reheated on the grill. The best gyro is simple and has fresh ingredients - been eating them for 50+ years. This sadly wasn't what we hoped for. read more

Start by telling people before they leave the counter that they need to use the Pepsi machine in the gas station instead of yelling at your customer while using the coke machine. Having napkins out where people can easily access them without having to ask for them. The food was average but there is something in the slaw on the gyro that has an odd after taste. I gave it a two stars based 80% on experience and 10% on the food. Wouldn't go back. read more

Brother. As soon as I saw "gyros" on a poster while pulling into Quartzsite to get gas I knew I was saved. Love filbertos and carls but man i needed another options and Arslan is delivering the goods. Arslan makes you feel immediately welcome, The AC is blasting inside and it's very clean. Me and my girl both got the gyro specials and they were amazing, the flavors I needed in the desert that day. Cold fresh hummus and vegetables and some good gyro!! It is beautiful. Also Great portions and the way he does the fries are insane... I've never had better steak fries... there not even steak fries there all thin and seasoned perfectly idk he's on to something special there. Need gyro fries added to the menu! Cant wait to stop in again on my next trip. read more
