    A great fast casual moment. I came here on a Saturday at noon. The parking lot is spacious, so no need to worry on that front. The restaurant has an ample amount of seating inside - you order at the counter first and seat yourself anywhere. Service is relatively fast, especially considering the store was 90% filled by the time we left. We got one gyro and one Greek Spot special plate. The lamb inside the gyro was great - crispy yet tender, and savory. There was a good ratio of meat to fries. The veggies inside (tomato and onion) were fresh as well. I really enjoyed the tzatziki here - very tangy and a great contrast (but also complement) to the warmness and saltiness of the rest of the gyro. The pita was light and airy. The Greek Spot special is a great balanced plate, featuring skewer, pita, and salad. As I like to call it, it's a deconstructed gyro (so everything was delicious as well), and the salad was aromatic and refreshing. A satisfactory portion size as well. Will definitely return!

    I came here once before and honestly didn't have the best experience, and I even left a not-so-great review. But I decided to give this place another try and I'm really glad I did. This time I ordered the a Gyro and Greek fries, and wow... easily the best Greek fries I've had in San Jose. Perfectly seasoned, crispy, and loaded with flavor. Totally changed my mind about this spot. I'm glad I came back because the food really won me over. Definitely worth a try if you're in San Jose and craving something delicious especially Mediterranean.

    We ordered the Mousaka (must try if you've never had) and the Gyro Plate to-go which took about 20ish minutes. The restaurant is cute and the one server was friendly. I personally thought everything was decent, but my brother who frequents Greek spots in New York thought that this spot wasn't anything special. He compared the 5 minute wait time at his usual food truck (with even better food) to the 20 minute wait here and noted that the food shouldn't have taken that long for the quality of food.

    Got a chicken bowl. The rice was a bit different than other mediterranean, it was flavorful but a bit mushy. I was hopping for more veggies in my bowl and would prefer less sauce. Overall, the menu is fairly priced.

    LENTIL SOUP

    Greek Spot is a super local restaurant with a cozy interior that is clean and has plenty of seating. We were pretty jet lagged when we tried it for the first time so we did end up over-ordering a bit. We went with the lentil soup as well as the lemon orzo soup, both were piping hot and well seasoned. The homemade spanakopita was also crispy on the outside and filled with creamy spinach on the inside. I also quite liked the lamb souvlaki over the beef (a bit juicier), but both paired well with the fresh pita and fries. Will definitely be back the next time I am craving Greek food!

    First time eating here ! Was looking around for a gyro spot & found this one around the area . For some reason , I was missing the gyros from Greece & this place looked legit . Went with the lamb & beef gyro $12 + combo drink w/ salad +$6 . Ordered 2 combos the other one w/ fries . It was around $40. The food came out & the portions were pretty big . The gyro had great flavor , the pita was super soft, the meat was flavorful. The fries were amazing . Super crunchy and had great flavor . I wish they had another spicy sauce . The one I tried tasted like Tapatio. I would say it tasted better w/o that . The greek salad at first tasted good & then Some bites tasted super bitter . Couldn't figure out what was giving it that taste . It wasn't a traditional greek salad I was used to but it did taste refreshing when it wasn't bitter . Overall , I'd come back for the gyros & the fries . They were pretty bomb.

    Overall had a good experience. The gyro (or "euro") was pretty tasty--though a bit salty for my taste, and I think it could've used a bit more sauce to balance things out. On the upside, the portion was decent and had that classic Greek flavor. My kid really enjoyed the French fries, which is always a win in my book.

    Came for takeout during a weekday lunch. It's definitely got some activity with a few tables occupied and people coming in and out for takeout. Lamb & Beef Gyro - actually quite a substantial wrap with onions, tomatoes, fries, and tzatziki. Overall flavors were good and they put on the right amount of sauce. I will say it's a pretty greasy wrap which might put some people off, probably due to the fries. This is no health food, and I definitely felt a little lethargic after eating the whole thing. Other than that I'd say it's pretty worth $12! Nothing standout per se, but reliable fast casual Greek food.

    CHICKEN GYRO

    The interior is very cute and cozy, giving a casual street vibe. The gyro was very hearty and it filled me up pretty well even though I thought it wasn't . I would love to come back and try their plates.

    Stopped by for lunch and loved this cozy little eatery! The food was delicious--we ordered the…read morevegetarian souvlaki with rice and the falafel souvlaki with fries, and both were really enjoyable. The service stood out as well. Our server was warm and attentive, patiently answering all our questions and checking in later to make sure everything was good. Overall, a great lunch experience--definitely a place we'd come back to!

    My friends and I were in the mood for some Mediterranean food and came across Souvlaki's Greek…read moreSkewers on Yelp. We decided to give this place a try and man we were not disappointed at all. It is located in a rather small business complex with other restaurants around. Parking can be a little tight during peak hours, but it is so worth it. It is a walk-up to order type of place where they bring your food out to you. The menu is clear to see, however they have a ton of options. One of the questions we had was what was the difference between a gyro and a souvlaki. The best way to think about it is, a gyro has shaved meat, while a souvlaki has skewered chunked meat. We ordered the dolmades, chicken gyro combo (comes with fries), and a beef souvlaki. The beef souvlaki was seasoned well and the red onions, French fries and other ingredients provides the perfect well-balanced flavor. The chicken gyro was also a well seasoned and balanced gyro in soft pita bread. The highlight for us,however, was the dolmades. If you think you have good ones throughout San Jose, I can guarantee, you will not see this one coming. It came out warm, slightly acidic, but also well balanced. It has meat in it,which I think might be veal or beef, I scarfed it down so fast I completely forgot to ask what type of meat they use. I cannot wait to go back and visit again. Those dolmades are calling me!

    I've been going there since they opened over 35 years ago!…read moreBest gyros I've ever had When anyone new comes to town, i take them there.

    1st time here. A friend invited me to join her, and said it was where many of her co-workers ate…read more The short version is: my meal was very sub-par, and way over-priced. The details: I normally don't eat a lot of meat, so I chose the Falafel Salad. It came with extremely little lettuce, plus a few olives (which I don't eat), onions (which I also eat sparingly), tomatoes, cucumbers, and the falafel balls. Oh! And there was feta cheese, but those were such miniscule pieces, and so few, that I wouldn't have remembered it was supposed to be part of the salad, if I didn't just pull up a photo online with their ordering system. What you see in the photo online is not what you get. The photo actually looks like a salad. Since it was called a salad, I expected there to be more lettuce, than the few pieces on the plate. I mainly was cutting up the cucumber & tomato pieces to go with the falafels. I don't even recall any dressing. There were also some pita slices with what I assumed was hummus. Whatever the dip was, it did not taste good to me at all. So I left all of the pita bread, as well, since it was dry without anything on it. Maybe what I assumed was hummus was a dressing. Hard to know, but it was not tasty. For the $27 I paid at a walk up counter, I would have expected much better food! I have bought frozen falafels at Lunardis (around $7) and made a salad for them at home, and enjoyed it very much, which is why I ordered it. I have purchased Spanakopita at the store many times, (about $5 for around 12 of them at the store) and made them at home, which is why I didn't order that. The falafel salad was not an enjoyable meal for me at Yiassoo's. I'd also seen some reviews from a few years back that said they paid around $10 or $11 for their meal. That is more in-line price-wise with what you get, based upon my meal. With most of the meals around $20 for lunch, I feel they were very over-priced. I also asked my friend if she'd like to split a Baklava. They had a pistachio one & chocolate one. My friend wanted to try the chocolate one, so I bought that. I didn't think I was too into baklava, but thought it might be nice to try at this highly rated Greek restaurant. The main flavor that came through was the honey & nuts. The chocolate was just a tiny, narrow drizzle on top. I didn't hate it, but I would never order it again. My friend took one bite, and said she mainly tasted the honey, and would take it home for her husband. It may be very good baklava, but it was not to our tastes. My friend ordered the Gyro salad. It had a large pile of shaved meat, and she seemed to enjoy it. She ordered it To-Go, as she knew she'd be taking some of it home. She seemed to have more lettuce under her pile of meat than my meal got. Maybe because it was in a To-Go box, which might be larger than the plate? Or maybe the person making my salad just wasn't paying attention to how to make a decent meal. I was hoping I was trying a restaurant that I could go back to for something different. Based upon my experience, I would not go back, if I had a choice. I gave it 3 stars, because maybe other dishes, or people looking to just eat meat or falafel balls and not much else would enjoy it. I only have the 1 meal to review, but it does not encourage me to try it again. Overpriced & not a fulfilling meal.
