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: 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 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!!!!!!

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.

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.

The Chicken Plate was literally a dream come true tonight. If you can typically put away a decent amount of food but you're looking for something light; want satiating but not greasy, then this is your meal. You get your choice of hummus (starter). I chose the spicy cilantro and 'WOW' ...so good. Ok, I'm downplaying that. Legit the best hummus I've had. You will end up scooping some with each bite of perfectly seasoned chicken, amazing rice and salad. Then when you want to shake things up a bit you can dip the half slice of pita you will get. The owner has been there last two times I've dropped in and he has always been friendly, helpful and adamant about feeding us an amazing meal. Kudos!! I just texted family suggesting they enjoy their dinner there tonight also. read more

Great fast service. Clean place. Food is not authentic at all. First time here trying express gyro, ordered beef lamp plate which comes with plain steamed rice with a tiny bit of salad. no onion, no feta and no olives. So the only Mediterranean was the meat? I wish it was more toasty too. As it looked undercooked and not appealing. So there is no picture. read more

Asked if the Greek fries were spicy was told they were not. They are spicy. Rice is a plain white rice that could be made at home. Only 1 pita bread in tray. Store bought kind. Side salad is in combination meal is super small & dressing has bad taste. Shredded lettuce the kind you use for tacos not a salad. Gyro meat was sauce on it with looks like pepper. Hummus was the only thing in the tray that was okay to eat. Overpriced. Won't be returning. The star is only for the friendly/fast customer service. Zero stars for the food. read more

The worst excuse for "vegetable wrap" I have seen. A large flour tortilla filled with a ton of white rice. About 1/3 cup of iceberg lettuce. A couple of itty-bitty pieces of tomato I can barely see. About 2 tablespoons of cucumber. And some sauce. That's it. $11 plus tax. A total rip off. Don't waste your money. Nice @ attentive employees though. read more

Hummus? You mean, "Hum-Yes!" This is my second visit. Great food. The owner and staff are really nice and will tell you everything about their food. I'd heard about hummus before and I think I'd even tried it once... but garlic hummus? I decided to try it. Now I love hummus. I tried making it at home, but it's not as good as theirs. So... great people, great food... and the prices are fine, but I don't care about prices when it comes to quality food. In particular, I recommend the garlic hummus, gyro, and loaded fries--especially with lamb. read more

I am excited to write this review about EXPRESS GRYO In Lincoln. We had their new Mediterranean Nachos and I had to pinch myself. I thought I was dreaming. It was a beautiful dish. But the flavors--stop the freaking bus!!! INCREDIBLE !! The Pita chips melted in my mouth because they were so fresh. The sauce was spicy and zesty with a surprising hint of something sweet. Somehow, the chefs have mastered balancing the flavors so well that each flavor compliments the other. Every bite was an experience unto itself. My tastebuds danced in celebration of the flavor party taking place. The meat was seasoned just enough to make it standout. It was moist, tender, and well portioned. The tomatoes and onions were not chunky or in the way--they seemed to be just the right size and firmness. The olives made me angry because they were super fresh and I can't get that at home LOL. Trust me when I write that I tried to find something to complain about. I really dug deep. The only complaint I could find was that I had no more room in my greedy little belly!!! read more

Great place for a quick lunch if you're craving Greek food! We stopped in with family that was in town for the day after spending a few hours in Lincoln. It was pretty quiet in there, so they offered to answer any questions and took our order right away. We ordered everything from wraps to gyros to salads, and even the Greek fries. Everything was delicious, was made quickly, and served correctly. It was "subway style" where everything was laid out and dished up based on the Oder. Their chicken was yummy and I loved all the different goodies that came on the salad. The Greek fries were yummy- we shared them at the table. Generous portions for each thing we ordered as well! The guys working were very friendly, helpful, and polite which is something I always appreciate. I'd definitely come back again if in the area! read more

Recently took food to go from here. A gyro for my son and a chicken plate for myself. My son didn't care for the gyro (said the meat didn't taste fresh- tasted reheated) My chicken plate was virtually tasteless. The chicken (that I thought was going to be grilled) had a strange texture/color and not much flavor. That goes for the rice as well. Hummus was also pretty bland and the pita bread I received was stale and cold. Unfortunately probably won't be back. read more

We have a new restaurant option in Lincoln, Express Gyro. Their focus is on Greek and Mediterranean food. Finally, something a little different from the standard fare - burgers, Chinese, sushi, Mexican, etc. I tried it this afternoon and was pleased by the clean & casual atmosphere, friendly staff, quick turnaround on my order, and ........ most importantly, the taste & quality of my food. Their menu consists of a wide assortment of gyros, wraps and plates, salads and desserts. I had already had a light lunch at home, so I limited my order to a beef and lamb gyro. The meat was tender and flavorful. It was accompanied by fresh pita, lettuce, tomato and onion. The tzatziki (cucumber sauce) was yummy. Prices were most reasonable and I will return. read more

All I can say is WOW! I ordered the falafel platter. I already ate two before I remembered to take a pic. It was so yummy. Crispy on the outside just right on the inside. Not overly seasoned. I had a good portion of salad on the plate also. The original hummus was one of the best I've ever had and I'm not even vegan. I went back the next day and took my wife. She said it was the best falafel she's ever had and we also tried the cilantro hummus and it was very delicious. They have options for the growing vegetarian/vegan community. And the prices were so reasonable. Well be back soon. read more

My kids ate all my pasta…read more Fast, easy, and simple. If you want some tasty pasta in a low key, not extravagant establishment, this is it. I tried the sauce in the pesto with shrimp, delicious and packed with flavor. My daughter then tried it and scarfed it down. I was in a rush but def coming back for more.

Coming here for amazingly friendly service? Don't. The service was short and efficient. Nothing…read moreoverly friendly or suggestions made. Was the food good? Yes! The pasta I had was seasoned well and had enough sauce for the noodles provided. It also came with a piece of garlic bread. Overall a great value for the portion size. Ambiance? Doesn't exist. Looks like someone drove their car through the front window/door. Not sure what happened but kinda crazy looking. Overall a good place for take away but would suggest to not dine in...

I fuckin love this place…read more If you come here, PLEASE get the chicken gyro with no tomato and make sure it has the tzatziki sauce I swear it will change your life FOREVER. I am SO serious. Also, get the baklava, too, AND try that one pink ice cream milkshake thing, it was FANTASTIC. Also, the lamb fries are PHENOMENAL And the falafel with a bit of lemon is PHENOMENAL Every food item at this place is AMAZING

I got the lamb plate this time. It came in a small container. It was very good but the amount you…read moreget is quite disappointing. I'd only go back for the gyros because I get more filled up with the pita bread lol. Service was fast. The store is large and clean. There's plenty of seating. They don't have water cups though.

"Express Gyro is a gem! The young cashier was fantastic--very polite and provided excellent customer service. The food is top-notch, and the outdoor patio vibe is fire. The Greek fries absolutely stole the show, and everything tasted amazing down to the last bite. Highly recommend this spot for a delicious and laid-back meal!" read more
