VERY DISAPPOINTED I have this gyro/lamb and rice place a few blocks from my house, it was hot out, didn't want to cook, thought I'd give it a try. THE PLACE WAS HOTTER THAN IT WAS OUTSIDE - I mean, it was hot in there! A woman waiting for her order was sweating and had to go outside! The place was clean, but the food? THE LAMB WAS OVERCOOKED, DRY AND SMALL PORTIONED - I had to tell the guy, who didn't know any English to put more lamb and salad! I also got a falafel platter, the falafel was good, BUT THE CHEAPEST SALAD I EVER SEEN! You get more food from a street cart!!! Overall, the food wasn't that good and paying 20.00 for the 2 cheap, overcooked dry meat dishes? IF YOU FEED YOUR CUSTOMERS, YOUR CUSTOMERS WILL FEED YOU - Don't get me wrong - There are some amazing gyro places on Bath Ave, that give you heathy size portions, but this is not one of those places. This was a waste of my time and $$$ read more

Gyro Mania - No amount of white sauce will soften that crisy old lamb meat - Pretty pathetic. - Halal Near Me - Bath Beach, New York

This is for delivery: We've ordered from Gyro Mania a few times now and for us, it's a solid "fast food" halal - not at a cart. Overall pretty decent - flavors are good, lamb is tender, chicken is ok, the extra pickles & salad added a nice balance to the meaty meal. Spice it up with some red & white sauce, not spicy tho, so add your own chili sauce for extra kick! We've tried their platters with the extra falafel, and the kids liked it. We enjoyed the salad mix with the rice, makes it less heavy as a meal. This is a solid 3 stars - price, quality and quantity - makes for a good fast dinner. read more

I will keep going to Gyro Mania even though Anayat's Halal Grill is closer to me. Gyro Mania gives a substantial amount of foods. Hence, you get bang for your buck. I went here recently. I overheard the cashier tell the server to give me extra meat because I'm a regular. My go to dish is lamb with rice (white sauce only). I passed by this shop tonight and I saw they renovated the inside. It's a lot brighter and there is a seating area. They must get a lot of business if they have the funds to redo the place. read more

Gyro Mania - Newly renovated - Halal Near Me - Bath Beach, New York

i love this place when i was younger. this was my go to because portions are so worth it and it is definitely worth it. quality is still as good as before . read more

The serving size was prob the best part as well as the vegetable varieties it came with, however the meat was just scooped out of a metal tray that could have been sitting there for hours, don't think I saw the guy reheat it even. read more

First off let me say, I rarely give out 5 stars so 4 stars is pretty much a hard yes on all levels for me. I love halal food, I know technically it's too broad of a term to use to describe this particular cuisine but it's what we've called it for years growing up in Brooklyn. "Getting halal from the cart for dinner" feel me? Anyway, where I live is a little more residential so I don't have any carts or food trucks near me. Whenever I get a craving for halal, I have to order out. I've tried quite a few so far from my vicinity (5-6), and Gyro Mania is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE because it hits all the checkmarks. Good chicken quality with flavor? Lamb gyro? Lamb full of flavor? Falafel? (so mf good) Good Portions? Good prices? There are places around here that charge $20 for a combo over rice, I kid you not. And then they have the audacity to taste like crap and give the smallest portions. Then there are the places that give you more salad than rice, meat lacking flavor, lamb or beef tasting like rubber. But Gyro Mania literally did not miss at all and I was so happy when I got my order and realized I finally found my go to spot. Their prices are amazing, their portions are great and I just want them to know they're doing an amazing job. Also, shoutout to the man that was there when I placed my order. When I called to confirm my special instructions he was extremely courteous and kind and it was clear when I received my food that he actually paid attention to them. That's how you get and keep customers. **Pro tip, when you order halal to go, get your sauces on the side so you can heat it up in the oven (if it's cold) and then distribute your sauce yourself** read more

The most disgusting Gyro I have ever had. I would advise not going there. I think the meat was old and I may report them to the department of health I will see if I get sick tonight read more

I've been coming here for several years as it's around the corner from my best friends house but my recent visit has left me with regret on giving them my business. I hadn't visited in quite a few months and so when I walked in I didn't recognize anyone behind the counter. The guys working there seemed much younger than the men I've known before. The youngest looking one took my order, spoke quietly and is the sole reason for this bad review. I ordered two chicken and lamb over rice and one gyro. I added the gyro after he'd finish packing up the two combo orders because my mother was still deciding. Once she told me, I relayed the last part of my order saying, "Can I also have a lamb gyro?" - He misheard me and prepared another container with rice. When he came back to face me I corrected him and said, "No, I said lamb gyro." He sucked his teeth, rolled his eyes and dropped the container on the counter before turning back around to toss the gyro on the grill. Now I know the customer is usually wrong but he made absolutely no effort to conceal his irritation despite that it was his mistake to begin with. I wasn't upset that he made a mistake, I just corrected him like anyone else would do. You speak up if there's a problem. That was extremely annoying to witness and I had half a mind to cancel my entire order despite having most of it already packed. However, it wasn't worth it, and arguing with them probably would have been a waste of my time and energy as none of his coworkers looked like they wanted to be there. None of the men behind the counter greeted us or any other customers as they walked in. They didn't appear friendly and their actions certainly matched their demeanor. The terrible customer service in this recent visit has led me to the decision to never return. I've also noticed that their portions have gotten smaller. The guys from before used to pack the containers until they were bulging, but these new guys, alongside their terrible attitudes, skimp out on the lettuce, tomatoes, rice and meat. I DO NOT recommend coming here. Please save your money and spend it elsewhere that has quality food and service. read more

Gyro Mania - Halal Near Me - Bath Beach, New York

This place opens late! Many options on the menu, many vegetables for sides. Prices are fair, big portions. Many choices of sauces as well. My chicken and rice was not cooked hot enough. The barbeque sauce was missing a flavor kick, was just light and too sweet. read more

literally served me burgers with cockroaches in the meat, that was 5 months ago and trust me they make it worse mow, the meat hada disgusting taste and they closed down the place due to inspection that found that a i realized later on why the meat tasted like that, now they are not allowed to serve burgers, if i could i would rate this place death penalty read more

Ordered three plates of lamb and chicken combo. Asked for extra hot sauce and got ignored, didn't substitute white sauce for hot. Side note, hot sauce was more on the tangy and sour side instead of spicy which was pretty unpleasant. The food arrived cold and didn't taste very well, just mediocre :( read more

Gyro Mania - Lamb and chicken combo - Halal Near Me - Bath Beach, New York

My husband and I like to come here after our workout - especially when he's starving because it's close and opened at late hours. He always gets the large fries (which is great!!) and the chicken over rice. For the price we pay and the portions we get, it's a great deal. read more

This place is turning into a real hit or miss, depending on when you go and who's behind the counter at that time. They've added some new people who cook/take orders, so it might be the inexperience that they don't add as many vegetables to your platter, or they get your order wrong. I came in and ordered fries. Just fries. A little boy before me ordered nuggets and fries. Same guy took our order, not someone I've seen in the restaurant in all the times I've been there though. The first time he asked what I wanted, I said, "Can I get fries?" He responded, "Nuggets and fries?" Again, repeating my order, I said, "No, just fries." He might've misheard me, but that's really what I said, and he ended up making nuggets AND fries as my order. Before this caused anymore problems though, when it came time to pay for my order, another guy behind the counter (who I generally see when I'm there) was nice enough to take the nuggets out for me, and I only paid for the fries. I'll be going back since I like the food and I live right across the street, but hope I don't run into anymore misunderstandings. read more

I like that they offer a buffet of ingredients to add to the combo platters. I can choose between rice, salad or both. I opt for the salad only choice so I'm eating a bit healthier. There are options between chicken, lamb and other meats. I usually get the chicken and lamb and those are delicious. read more

Now this place has the best food Ik so far as a child I used to order hot wings a lot and fries and still do their hot sauce is good and the gyro is good the service is really fast and efficient also it's really cheap other places are alot more expensive read more

No frills kind of place. It is like a halal food truck but the storefront version. I had the combo of the lamb and chicken with salad. I like how you can pick which ingredients you want in the salad. It was a really good mix of meat and veggies. They loaded up the salad too and for $7 it was an absolute steal. No complaints from me. Great value and great food. read more

They have the worst service and attitude. I used to go in and order my food, and every time I asked for something specific they give me an attitude, (for example leaving the sauces on the side). Then, I started to order online so I don't have to deal with them and when I went to pick up my order, which it said that it was ready on my phone, it wasn't, I had to tell them that I have an order to pick up and it said it's ready, and still give me the same bad attitude, bottom line I will never order anything from this place again. read more

great halal food for a cheap price. the place has a tv to watch the news and also has seating if you would like to eat in. They also offer catering, which is great for all different types of occasions. I became sick one time from their food, however I have not became sick after that. I continue going here for halal food and In my opinion I believe that this halal place is actually better then the halal food cart on 86th and Bay parkway (next to TD bank) If you want some cheap, good halal food, go here. a combo is I think $6 or $7. definitely worth the money. (and no, you won't get sick) read more

Gyro Mania - Chicken and lamb 23. Combo Platter with rice and lettuce and hot sauce and white sauce - Halal Near Me - Bath Beach, New York

I have been to this establishment before and it was decent. However today I was in for a treat! I order a lamb over rice and chicken Tikka over rice. I was asked if I wanted to wait 10 to 15minutes for the Tikka and I was like sure! since they had to make it right away I tipped them a bit extra. So I wait for about a little over 10 minutes and then someone else walked in and the guy give at least 60 to 70% of the chicken Tikka to the guy that came after me before he packed my stuff up and of course he was of his ethnicity what a surprise. And he didn't even gave me the rest of the Tikka left on the grill( and the chicken was burnt!) And not to mention the lamb over rice was like hardly a 1/4 of the box. And 2 box of food 1 set of utensil. What a f-ing D bag sorry for my language but I was pretty darn upset about this. I will never ever go back to this place again avoid coming to here at all cost! If I can give it a negative stars I will and give it daily. Total a trashy experience! read more

This is a neighborhood halal spot that serves very clean, healthy, and fresh food. My first order was the falafel over rice, chicken and lamb, and chicken wings with fries. The falafel was freshly made and you could taste the difference between their falafels and the much cheaper ones at the carts. Both their chicken and lamb were incredibly succulent, and the lamb had no gameyness whatsoever. This is now my favorite spot to get wings from: so cheap and so much for your money. When I talked to the owners they were very nice, but unfortunately business isn't doing too well because of covid. Please help these kind people out and treat yourself to some delicious food in the process. read more

Not bad at all! LOVED the mixed salad and the portion was amazing- make sure vinegar is your thing though- the rice was nice and so was the lamb chops my husband ordered. I wish they had grilled shrimp but the fried ones were also satisfying. Overall, the place sent a decent delivery within a reasonable amount of time and we enjoyed it. read more

Gyro Mania - Grilled lamb with mixed salad and rice. Hubs said it was pretty good. - Halal Near Me - Bath Beach, New York

I recently had to pick up food for a friend from here and it smelled really good. So I decided to give them a try and ordered a chicken tikka salad. All I can say is the chicken was great but everything else in that container was a mess! It looked like it had been flipped around a couple times before I got it. Also, when I think of a salad, I expect some kind of lettuce and a dressing. It came with nothing. My boyfriend ordered the lamb pitta and he barely took a bite. The taste was off and he claims he was not given lamb! We were truly disappointed. read more

Came back from my vacation three weeks ago and flight was delayed. By the time my brothers picked me up and drove me home it's already 2am in the morning. I was hungry and was trying to find a local place that's still opened. Lucky we came across Gyro a Mania on Yelps so we went to picked up some food. It was a pleasant surprise. At 2:30 in the morning they were able to serve us with some delicious takeout lamb and chicken over rice. Price was reasonable, food were delicious and portions were huge. A good option especially you need a after midnight snack! read more

I've always driven past this place and never stepped inside to check it out; I always stuck with the food carts along 86th Street if I wanted to get halal. My friend recommended this place to me and I'm glad to say that this place doesn't disappoint. You get a lot food for your money. They have a salad bar that has a variety of veggies (way more than any halal food cart can offer). They're very generous with the protein too. One thing to note: if you're looking for amazing customer service with smiles and "please" and "thank you", this is not the place. There are about 2 guys working there and they don't do small talk; you tell them what you want to order and they make it for you. Period. That's all, so don't get offended! Just order the food for take-out and you'll be fine. read more

What a disappointment. They might be under new management or something but the portions have been cut in half. Now you're getting Manhattan prices for food truck portions. It was good while it lasted. read more

Ordered several times from this place and it's consistantly good. I usually get lamb over rice, chicken over rice for hubby and burgers for kiddos. Burgers are not the best but affordable and decent for a quick bite when you don't feel like cooking. Meat, sides and rice are always fresh and tasty. I don't frequently eat falafel but theirs was really good, possibly best I ever had. read more

Avoid this place as much as possible. They did not wear mask or gloves while preparing my food. The guy looks like he's sick or hang over!!! They also gave me so little food compared to other places, even halal carts gives more food!!! I would give 0 stars! read more

Both workers that were there were not wearing a mask nor gloves. On top of that the chicken was sitting in a big bowl that could've been there all day. I could've gotten better service especially with covid precautions from a food truck... I also found hair in my food. read more

Never coming back again! They skimp your portions and have increased their price. Also they discriminate customers based on their ethnicity. If they like you they give you heaping loads of meat, if they don't like you they scrape the scraps off the side of the grill and cover it with sauce to hide it. When you ask for extra lettuce they give you a stink face. Unbelievable. DO NOT COME HERE. The halal carts on the streets are way better than this joke of an establishment. read more

So glad that this place is just a minute or two from where i am living now. Affordable? Check. Delicious? Check. Fast? Check. Generous? Double check. So far i had both their chicken and lamb over rice. Both meat were cooked to perfection. And the rice was flavorful too. If you love side salad like i do then you will love this place as you can put as many veggies as you like. Overall a clean and solid gyro place without the frills. Best 6.50 i have ever spent without a doubt. read more

Food is solid here, no long wait, prices are reasonable. I get the chicken or lamb with rice.

I just ordered on Christmas night and they were open. The mozzarella sticks and the chicken wings slaps. I did not expect the food to be that good but it was amazing! Who ever was cooking that night deserves a raise. Way better than gyro king. read more

We stopped by in the middle of the night craving the delicious relief that is halal food. The man behind the counter was nice and courteous, he took our orders and even asked if wanted more vegetables in our salad. First was lettuce, cubed cucumbers, green bell peppers, followed by a mixture of diced onions and tomatoes. That was all topped by a very hearty layer of lamb. White sauce, hot sauce, BBQ sauce, whatever you want. There was also the options of pickles, olives, banana peppers and more. The taste was exquisite! Bite after bite, I was loving it more and more. It was the best I've had! Better than off the carts on the corners, especially the ones downtown and in the city. 10/10 Would stuff myself again! read more
