Golden Gate Gyro food truck was at an onsite corporate event in San Jose. I got the falafel gyro and it was ready within a few seconds. Pita bread was soft, falafel was flavorful, and the veggies added a nice crunch. There was some tahini sauce drizzled on top but I wish there was more of it as the wrap was a little dry! The ratio of falafels to veggie/sauce/bread was slightly off. Fries were included on the side and I'm not a huge fries fan generally but they leaned on the softer side. Overall, I enjoyed my wrap though it was a bit falafel heavy and could have used more sauce. read more

They work at my workplace, I happened to get the chicken gyro at a discounted price and I must say it was definitely value for money. The portion of the chicken was pretty decent although not over the top. As many other reviews have stated, the food color (red) was a bit off putting and over the top. It was tender for sure, although I am not 100% sure how fresh it was. But I liked it. Some white sauce and spicy sauce added as well - they ask you if you want it spicy. I like that the white sauce was not over the top. Order was pretty instantaneous to come out, appreciated the quick service! They also do a half and half btw, a colleague did the half lamb half chicken and said he preferred the lamb to the chicken. read more

Golden Gate Gyro - Chicken gyro - Food Trucks Near Me

They were at my company on a weekday and I decided to give them a try. The meal was subsidized and I only paid $5. Portion size was pretty good, but I would say the flavor was just ok. I had a chicken over rice, which came with some greens as well. The rice was mildly seasoned. Chicken was tender, but was also not flavorful & like what everyone else has brought up, it's got a weird red color to it. The white sauce had dill, so if you aren't a fan of dill, probably ask for them to not include the sauce. They also had a bottle of the red "spicy" sauce on the condiment stand, but it wasn't spicy and had more of a sour kick to it. The guy who took my order seemed friendly, hence the 3 stars. Otherwise, I would say the flavors were not memorable and I wouldn't be back. read more

My company hired the food truck for an event and it was great! I got the falafel gyro and enjoyed it! The falafel was not dry and was of good consistency. It didn't fall apart while eating. They were kind enough to put the sauces on the side so my gyro was not drowning in sauce. The workers were super kind and the service was quick! read more

Stopped by Golden Gate Gyro at the Gordon Biersch Night Market in San Jose and I'm so glad I did! I was first in line and ordered the Chicken Over Rice. Michael (a total sweetheart) asked me if I wanted it spicy, and while I was deciding whether I wanted sriracha or not, he told me he had a different sauce I would like. I was happy to try it and paid my $19. The food was ready impressively quickly - it must have been under 3 minutes of waiting. He gave me the special sauce (red but lighter in color than sriracha) in a separate little box and I brought my food home to eat. The Chicken Over Rice was fantastic - flavorful juicy chicken, well cooked rice, and fresh crunchy veggies. I liked the white sauce but LOVED the special sauce, which was the perfect level of spicy. I wish I had asked the name of it, but Michael was spot on with his recommendation. The portion size was very generous, but I managed to finish the entire meal. Would totally return! read more

My homie hit me up one day and told me a Gyro truck pulled up outside his office and I should stop by to check it out, I was already debating on what to have for lunch so this was obviously fate rearing its head at the right time. The menu offers a variety of options from plates, salads, wings, baklava, and fries but the real star of the show for me, is the gyro wraps (of course). The meat (lamb or chicken) is perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection, with a delicious blend of spices that truly capture the essence of Greek cuisine with the perfect. The pita bread is soft and fluffy, and the toppings - from the tzatziki sauce to the fresh veggies - are all top-notch. If you're a vegetarian, they got you covered. I asked for spicy and they delivered on the spicy because I need that kick in my life. Michael was running the truck solo, he's extremely friendly, welcoming, and moves very quick in the kitchen, the turn around for the food was surprisingly fast, so don't let any long lines scare you. Everything here was efficient and Mike was very attentive, ensuring that every customers question is answered and they feel well taken care of. Overall, I highly recommend Golden Gate Gyro. Whether you're a die-hard fan of Greek food or just looking to try something new and exciting, you won't be disappointed at all! read more

Order ready in about 3 minutes! Had the lamb gyro & chicken rice plate. The lamb was tender and flavorful but a bit too salty. I don't think I would've been able to eat just the lamb but together with the chicken, it was great. I have to admit I found the deep red food coloring of the chicken a little off putting but it was delicious and perfectly seasoned and cooked. The rice was perfect and so was the salad with sauce. read more

So gross! Their food truck came out for lunch for a company event. I ordered a chicken gyro sandwich and bit into a rubbery thing, like the top of a container?? I thought it was a tendon or something. After throwing out the piece, I took another bite and there were tiny rubbery pieces and I spit out the bite and threw the whole meal out. On top of it, what is that red color they use on the chicken? After the 2 bites, my heart was racing 30 min later and for another 1-2 hours. MSG?? read more

Participated in a food truck event recently and Golden Gate Gyro was one of the options we could choose from. The food was really delicious! Got to try the lamb gyro and the mixed combo over rice that has chicken and lamb over rice with salad. Chicken was unexpectedly a little spicy and lamb was incredibly tender and flavorful. Food portions were huge. Really happy with our food and would definitely get it again. The guy working the front was incredibly nice and kind. read more

Golden gate gyro truck was at my office location recently. Food is good and so is the service. One advice is stop adding food coloring to the chicken. That threw me off. If I had known the chicken looked like this, I wouldn't have bought it. My colleagues order was really good which was veg option. Definitely recommend not adding red food color to chicken read more

The food was cold. The fries were at room temperature, cold gyro meat. Ordered and food was scooped into the container but non of it was kept warm, forgetting about being fresh. Very disappointing. read more

Pretty good food truck. I got the chicken over rice option. The chicken was weirdly bright red color but it tasted fine and was tender. There was some raw greens and rice with the chicken, both tasted fine. There was enough sauce and it wasn't too salty. Portions are adequate and pricing is fair. The front of the truck was adequately stocked with napkins and utensils when I was there. Credit card accepted. read more

The dude and I came here on 07/04/21 as our food option for the A's game. Within the last few years I've grown to appreciate Mediterranean cuisine. We decided yo give this food truck a try. The line was long but reasonable and moved pretty fast. I got the Chicken Swarma pita as the dude got the Lamb pita, we also got two orders of Baklava too which was good. The chicken pita was pretty good, very flavorful and it made my taste buds dance with happiness! The portion size was huge so I didn't even put a dent in it and I was so full. I had left overs. The dudes lamb pita was very chewy which I am a fan of lamb but I didn't like the texture of the meat at all and lacked flavor for me. The dude agreed but he still enjoyed his Lamb pita. The Baklava was honestly my favorite as it was so tasty and the honey topping was my favorite. The staff was friendly and nice and I would come again! It was such a treat! read more

Golden gate gyro served out their rice and fry plates quite fast, most likely since they have batches of meat prepared for a quick TAT. The spicy chicken wasn't that spicy, but it was tender and not bad. Contrary to what some comments said, their lamb was not overly salty which is pretty lucky. My other coworker had gotten their falafel plate and it came with 10 pieces which is A LOT. It also looked pretty tasty! If it's around, I'd pick up a plate again - 3.5 . read more

This was one of the food trucks at our swim champs held at a local High school here in Pleasanton. Champs is an event where the kids compete in swim meets all day. I was very hungry by the time that we made it out to the food trucks. I didn't want a burrito, I didn't want a burger/fries or anything greasy - it was a very hot day and I wasn't in the mood for Junk. I was quite happy to see the gyro truck, because I knew they'd be a break from the usual. I wish I could remember the name of the man waiting on me that day because he was very helpful, super friendly and he really wanted to make sure I enjoyed what I ordered. I had a lot of questions, because I wasn't quite sure what to get, and I knew meat would just be too heavy. I had some falafel, and just a smidge of white sauce. The falafel was excellent! Not too heavy on the cumin, not overwhelming, just spiced and prepared deliciously as promised. The veggies were cool, fresh, and plentiful. What a satisfying meal. 5 stars all the way and 10 stars for the service! Thank You! read more

Quick take: delicious food During COVID-19 SIP this food truck company is following all social distancing rules. Pre-order by texting 925-786-4520. One truck is currently stationed at the Green Valley Elementary School parking lot in Danville. Follow their IG stories for current locations and specials. The food is delicious. Very flavorful and tender meat. Definitely will be back for more. This is a very small food truck. So I understand they are limited on cooking appliances and counter space. If you are taking suggestions for the future I will request fries to be added to the menu. Thanks for the great service. Stay healthy and safe! read more

Not only is their food fantastic, they have amazing customer service! My family was at the opening game for the Oakland Roots - the coliseum concession stands had crazy long lines and my boys were starting to have a meltdown from being hungry so we decided to hit up the food trucks in the plaza. I made the mistake of going to a different truck and after waiting 15 minutes for our food, I was told it's going to be at least another 20 minutes. The owner of Golden Gate Gyro overheard our dilemma and gave me food for my boys...and it was DELICIOUS!! read more

I used Golden Gate Gyro at my work property. Working with John to coordinate was seamless from start to finish. They showed on time, provided outstanding service and delicious gyros of course. I asked for extra sauce on my chicken gyro- which is the total way to go. That tzaki sauce tho! The gyro had plenty meat and the right balance of lettuce, cucumber, tomato etc. You can order kabobs over rice , gyros, or a salad along with fries and sodas etc. John was totally accommodating with my "extra" requests. Service with a smile is always appreciated. I cannot wait for them to arrive again in two weeks so I can get my gyro fix! read more

Golden Gate Gyro - Food Trucks Near Me

Thd GOLDEN GATE GYRO food truck is a RIP-OFF! The prices were clearly posted on the side of the truck ($12.00 for gyro on pita & $2.00 for bottle of water) . . . yet my tab for 1 of each was nearly $23.00! I asked for clarification and the server (who claimed to have worked there 2 years) said "I was not reading the prices correctly." I mentioned that the posted (handwritten) water price is defintiely $2 (not $3 as he claimed) and simiarly for the gyro ($12, not $17). The server insisted that I was not reading the numbers correctly. Even the Golden Gate Gyro webite says $15.99 for 1 entree, 1 side dish and 1 drink ... so how is it that I was charged way more but got less product than this deal? The last time I checked, ANY REPUTABLE BUSINESS CHARGES the POSTED PRICE (even if the posted price is wrong). The server's attitude was pathetic. The customer in line behind me confirmed that the food truck was NOT HONORING their POSTED PRICES and shook his head. I suggested to the server that he change the handwritten prices to reflect what he was charging customers to ensure that no others were caught off guard ... but he refused to do so. What? Ridiculous! I went inside the pub and told everyone inside (60+ people) that the food is decent but be prepared to pay a lot more than the posted price. Needless to say, after my purchase, there was NO LINE at the Golden Gate Gyro truck all night. The PRICE GOUGING by Golden Gate Gyro food truck was unconscionable. I do hope that the OWNERS of the food truck are aware of the damage that this sole food truck employee is doing to their business. read more

First time trying this place and was glad to try it out. The food was good and had some good flavoring. I would recommend getting extra sauce. The salad compliments the rice plate really well. I enjoyed the lamb a bit more than the chicken but overall a solid plate. Service was good and very helpful. Gave some good recommendations aswell which is a plus. I went to the food truck so I didn't get to see the ambiance of the actual location but the food truck did have some seating outside which was great. I like the spot but I don't love it. Overall still solid spot. read more

Service is excellent, and the falafel gyro tasted wonderful! My oder came out quickly and Micheal was awesome to chat with.

Golden Gate Gyro has been coming out to our neighborhood in Oakley since the beginning of covid stay in place rules were mandated. These guys are awesome. Food is consistently great. We have been coming out as regulars since they have been coming out with their food truck supporting our community during these times. I have been ordering the lamb gyro with extra white sauce and my hubby has been ordering the combo meat rice plate. The meats are always tender. We have also ordered the hummus and falafels. Falafels are not oily and flavored nicely. Hummus is a plus as we love eating it with extra pita bread. We have yet to taste their baklava so maybe on their visit back here. We are a fan and thankful for their business. read more

This is a new addition to the food truck line-up in front of our building and I decided to give it a try (our building has been under construction for a while and the food trucks come regularly from Tuesday to Thursday to feed the tenants). They have a very straightforward menu (chicken, lamb or both and in a gyro, rice bowl or salad). I ordered the mixed (chicken and lamb) gyro and it was good - the meats were delicious and the bread was just perfect. It's a good amount of food as well. At $11, this is relatively affordable. I would recommend this truck. read more

I went out today to support one of my local favorites and I was extra excited to do so knowing how amazing his food is. I ordered two falafel gyros (spicy), chicken gyro and baklava. The falafel is always perfectly cooked, crispy outside and soft on the inside, today was no disappoint when it came to the falafel. They were perfectly cooked and the gyro had a perfect balance of sauces and veggies. I ate until I was completely stuffed! The chicken was for my children and it was their first time eating one (they are picky eaters). They tasted the chicken all they could do was say Mmmm... as they kept shoveling the super juicy meat into their mouths. They are 9 & 10 so that response is a win in my Mommy handbook! Baklava....where do I start. It melts in your mouth with all those incredible layers of phyllo and finely crushed nuts. The syrup is sweet but not overpowering. I wanted to go back for more. Stock up on this incredible dessert. Final statement - get to the truck and eat NOW! read more

I had this recently when I met a friend at Calicraft. It was so delicious. I got the mixed meat over rice with lettuce. I didn't realize they had red sauce until I finished my meal otherwise I would have asked for it. Reminds me a lot of Halal Guys which I love. I also got a side of pita which was warm and delicious.

Wow! A food truck with amazing gyros. Off the Grid and Taste of the World struck gold! After seeing them at Off the Grid and Taste of the World I finally had them. No regrets on ordering the Mixed Gyro. Oh mah! Chicken and Lamb into one gyro. The owner of the trailer is so awesome. I told him I was going to do a Yelp review which I am doing at this moment while I am giving my honest review. Golden Gate Gyro does great business at Off the Grid and Taste of the World.

I tried this food truck (actually a trailer kitchen hauled by a large pickup truck) during Food Truck Mafia at Bishop Ranch 1. The food is similar to Halal Guys, though the menu is a bit more limited - chicken, lamb gyros, or both and then its over rice or over a large, warm pita bread. The mixed rice plate ($12) had both chicken and lamb gyros over rice along with a side salad. It was amazing - large chunks of very tender and flavorful gyros, and grilled chicken that had some juice left and was not dry. I asked for spicy and they added some red sauce that had a pleasant spicy kick. If you ever tried Halal Guys, their red sauce can be dangerously spicy and painful to your taste buds. Golden Gate also had a decent white sauce that went really well with the lamb. 5 stars, as its one of the better lunches I've had from Food Truck Mafia. I think they can compete with Halal Guys in terms of quality, though they may be a tad bit pricier. read more
