Eesh. I haven't had a gyro this bad since... well, ever. I know, that sounds really harsh, but…read moredamn. We came here while visiting the Cartlandia pod at the urging of family. "They have the best gyros!", they said. We trusted them, and gave Bomb Gyro a go.
We ordered 2 lamb gyros, and a Mezzanine platter. The platter was iceberg lettuce with oil on it, and 6 slices of lemon. There were 4 dolmas on top, and a tiny bit of hummus and tzatziki. Seriously? Not even some falafel? It was basically a salad, with random Mediterranean stuff sprinkled around the sides.
When we ordered, there was much confusion, with many repeat utterances of what we'd like. When the platter came out, we thanked them and asked how much longer for the gyros. "Gyros? Oh, you wanted to order them?"... I guess he thought we were just asking about gyros? Like, "hey, do you have 2 gyros? ok, cool". Anyway, they finally came out, and we sat down to eat them.
Right away, looking at the meat, it looked like sliced tofurkey. Usually, gyros have meat that comes from a spool (like a spit) that rotates very slowly while being cooked. It is then sliced off of said spool (sometimes with a cool, sword looking tool), and then gathered up and inserted into the sandwich. Now, this literally looked like sliced lunchmeat (except crappy looking tofurkey), it was dry as fuck, and had no flavor. The pita was soaked in tzatziki, and the sandwich was just a huge mess. And it literally tasted bad. The only reason I ate it, was because of the recommendation from family mentioned earlier.
Later, I asked if they'd been to any other Mediterranean places in town, and they said this was the only one they've been to. Ok. Now it makes sense. I've eaten gyros of varying quality all over the world, and I've been to Israel and eaten real Mediterranean food. This is not that. I'm not even sure this is food. My stomach hurt later that night, and we had to go to a place with GOOD gyros the next day in order to wipe the memory of this place from our palates. I will never eat here again. Worst gyro I've ever had.
