    My husband and I stopped by Express Gyro in Lincoln for a late lunch. You order at the counter and they brought our food to us. I ordered the chicken plate, which came with chicken topped with tzatziki, rice, garlic hummus, and warm pita bread. My husband got the chicken loaded fries, and both meals were absolutely delicious -- and the portions are generous! The inside is clean and inviting, with plenty of seating options, plus a nice outdoor seating area if you want to enjoy your meal outside. The owner is incredibly kind and helpful, and our food came out quickly. We'll definitely be coming back!

    Excellent and consistent service. Excellent and consistent food quality. Reasonably priced food. Gyros and dolmas are excellent. Business is clean and well organized in customer area. Highly recommend this Greek and Mediterranean restaurant.

    Great customer service right when we walked in! We were promptly greeted and the cashier had a great attitude. He even brought out our meal to our table. Steady flow of customers. The ingredients were all fresh! Decor and music is on point! Would stop by again!

    Such a great local spot. The beef lamb Mediterranean nachos are my favorite. My kids love the gyros, wraps and loaded fries! Staff is always friendly and prompt.

    6/16/2023:  Express Gyro receipt.

    6/16/2023: I posted my Express Gyro receipt; I had no choice but, ordering an inhaling session of a beef and lamb combination plate, one order of two garlic Hummus, and one mango Lassi to-go due to the fact, I had to have my Toyota 4-Runner's brand new tires' realigned and re-balanced-AGAIN--AUGH. Welp~That's the main reason for being so far away from my humble abode; there wasn't a Firestone Auto Care appointment available in Sacramento: Therefore, I might as well inhale a beef and lamb combination plate, one order of two garlic Hummus, and one mango Lassi while waiting for my Toyota 4-Runner's tires brand new tires' realigned and re-balanced. It was rather amusing inhaling my exotic cuisine meal at Firestone's waiting room; customers were literally staring at me while I was in the midst of my inhaling session, i.e., devouring every morsel on the to-go box~lol . . . I WAS FAMISHED. Still, my only complaint was the food wasn't piping hot--just lukewarm. The to-go meal shouldn't have been lukewarm especially, when Express Gyro is literally one-quarter of a block AWAY from Firestone, i.e., the reason for deducting one-star from Express Gyro's review.

    This is the beef and lamb plate

    This is the best Mediterranean food that I have ever had. I highly recommend coming here to eat the staff is very friendly and welcoming and this place is extremely clean inside. Great place to come I wish I didn't live so far from here but I will definitely be back!!!!!!

    Pubic hair in my gyro.

    Well as soon as I started to eat my gyro , I found some pubic hair attached to the meat. Greek fries are ok. The people are very friendly. Service is so good they give you surprises. As for Ambiance they need to play some bad bunny.

    The beef/lamb gyro. Excellent!

    I had an itch for something different, she 9n a very warm summer day Greek food seemed like a mighty good choice. I ordered online for pickup and it was ever so easy. Just go to the restaurant web site and the menu with photos is there, and simple to navigate. The order consisted of two meat plates of beef and lamb, with a choice of sides. I opted for the spicy cilantro hummus. The plate comes with a small salad, rice, and half a pita bread. To compliment the order I also got the Greek salad, an order of Greek fries and two orders of falafel (4 per orde). Everything was ready and packaged well for travel when I arrived... OK, an insignificant short wait, but the owners are very nice and personable, and appreciate the business. Overall, the portions are quite generous and the food is very good, hearty and tasty. The fries were very good the meat fresh and delicious, rice was fluffy and salad fresh as well. It isn't high end Greek cuisine, but quite satisfying simple Greek dishes, taverna style. I will gladly return and try more.

    Ordered a beef and lamb gyro from this place. It was slightly overpriced being $12. Regardless, i got it pretty quickly. There was a lot more meat than i expected, which was fantastic, no complaints. What i didn't quite like was that everything was smothered in sauce. It was tooo much sauce. But it tasted ok.

    Came to this restaurant with my daughter and son-in-law for dinner. Establishment was high on my…read moredaughter's list of places that she had wanted to try for quite a while. When we walked in, we were immediately greeted by a waiter who seated us immediately and soon had water for us and menus. He then came back with a small bowl of soup for each of us. I don't know if they change their soup flavors often but this one was lentils with short green rice and it was very very good. I was impressed right away with how friendly he was and one of the kitchen staff saw us and she was just as kind. We ordered a couple of appetizers; one was a dish of olives and 2 types of pickles. It was a nice amount of items. Our absolute favorite was the Toum....a soft whipped dip, Lebanese dip that had LOTS of garlic but not so much that it was overwhelming. We ordered bread to dip into this. It was WONDERFUL. My daughter ordered the chicken pomegranate plate that had chicken that had been marinated in pomegranate and molasses that was on a bed of long grain rice and a salad on the side, which was very fresh and very crisp. I had the chicken shawarma plate which was incredible and my son in law had the lamb kabobs which he really enjoyed. Our waiters were very prompt clearing our dishes bringing boxes along with complimentary baklava that was very tasty and the perfect end to a great meal! My daughter and I both noticed that it was very clean and I thought it was a very relaxed atmosphere. Incredible meal!!!

It wasn't a huge deal, and I didn't want to say anything because we were hungry and didn't want to wait for it to be remade, so we just ate it. The gyro itself wasn't what I was hoping for. The lamb had kind of a tangy taste that just wasn't for me. Maybe my expectations were a little high because my wife and I recently had Greek food out of town and were hoping for a similar experience. The service was awesome though, and everyone was really friendly. That's why I'm giving it 4 stars.

Took it at home and ate the entire dish. It was refreshing and nice. I'll definitely come back to this one. I find it funny that I was told the limitations on my protein. It's chicken/falafel or Beef/lamb. I wanted chicken and beef but the counter girl said it's not done that way. So I just ordered the chicken falafel. It was actually really good anyway.

I especially wanted to see if their lamb shank was still the "star" from my last visit and to try their meat kabobs. So what did we order. 1) Lamb shank (2 orders): again, i believe this entree is one of the best items here. The shank is braised so well that the meat comes right off the bone without any efforts. The flavor is exceptional. it arrives on a bed of rice, hummus, greek salad, and pita bread. This is an item i would order without hesitation. 2) Chicken kabob skewers plate: 6 pieces of boneless white meat that is grilled once the order is placed. The chicken had a nice char and looked great. But the flavor was very mild and grilled a little too long which made the meat a tad dry...perhaps the chicken needed to be marinated longer for the spices to penetrate but the dryness was in preparation over the grill. 3) chicken and beef kabobs skewers plate: again the chicken was grilled a tad too long which made the pieces dry. the beef was moist and had a nice flavor. It also comes with rice and a salad. 4) mixed plate: sliced meat from a rotisserie spit on top of a bed of rice and topped with tzatziki sauce and hot sauce, hummus and greek salad. the sliced meat was a bit dry but more tzatziki sauce on the meat helped. The side salads were very basic. The pita bread is not as soft and fresh as the ones from Jayna Gyro on Alhambra blvd. But I would give 4 stars for the lamb shank and 2-3 stars for the grilled and chicken and beef kabob and rotisserie chicken sliced from the spit.
