Very tasty Greek cuisine! Gyros, Greek salad, baklava and more!!!! Very delicious and decent prices as well.

3 stars for the friendly staff but other than that it was not a good experience. I had the Gyro and the pita was super soft but the meat inside was dry and not even warm and tasted old. The tzatziki was ok but not traditional tasting. I had high hopes from all the great reviews but i was left disappointed. read more

Ordered on line. Gyro was so salty as to be almost inedible. Cost was ok, but not for something you can't eat. I won't be back.

Okay, so this place looks like it's always empty so I never bothered. My wife and I were craving a gyro since we missed the Mediterranean food back in LA. This place pops up and we hope for the best. Boom! Instantly we became fans. Food is well seasoned, taste fresh, and is always served with a smile. This place is so good my wife has had had it once a week, I am not lying. The original is a staple, meets the ideal gyro taste profile. But the Philly Gyro was my favorite variation. Meaty,cheesy, and flavor bomb form the peppers with onions. Dang just writing about has me wanting to go grab one.Definitely give this place a try. read more

Music was too loud and the food was ok - not like the place on Montgomery that closed but had much better gyros.

Rice was dry & chicken was dry. Onions were too strong!! But they did give me a deal on the pitas & baklava. read more

Great almost "fast food" Greek. Was very disappointed when the San Mateo location closed. The food is great. The prices are a bit high and delivery is a bit slow for fast food - but they are making real food in there - not just a burger on a flattop or rotary grill. read more

This spot is super close to my house so I've been wanting to check it out for a minute. I love a good gyro and so stop by for lunch one day. I ordered the option that had bacon as well as some feta fries. The red sauce was a bit of an overkill, it seemed to have been added last and just kind of soaked the bread. I will say my favorite part was the fries, they were absolutely fantastic. The gyro was a little hard to eat and pretty messy overall. I think maybe next time I would skip the sauce or just ask for light spice. I will also know that their drive-through is not functional, it is a go inside only option kind of place. it wouldn't hurt to take down some of the drive-through signage unless they are planning on opening that up eventually. read more

That was unfortunate. Okay, the Gyro Shack menu says so much for a combo and so much for a sandwich but no explanation. What's a combo? Oh, it's a sandwich plus one of these things. Okay, I'll take this sandwich, combo with this side. My wife does the same thing. Give over the credit card, no numbers displayed on our side of the register until the total. The $36.15 price for two sandwiches, two sides and a drink sounds okay, if high (the place is expensive for a "fast" food), what do I care? Okay. Throw a $5 into the tip basket for a one-minute counter encounter. No thank you. Well, my wife wants to see the receipt; determines we've been overcharged. Goes back up. Spends the next (I'm not exaggerating) five minutes determining that _some_ sides have an upchage on the combo and getting a refund. Okay. Food is as slow to come out as it was in the Lotaburger this place used to be. Okay. At least we have the overly loud commercial radio (more commercials than radio) to keep us company. And the fruit flies that are for some reason cruising around and landing on us and our table (later, our food). Atmosphere is like a fast food burger place in a notso-hotso location - a variety of booths, overly loud radio blaring. My order is called. Counterperson is irritated with me (I suppose because my wife made them re-ring the order to take off the side with the exorbitant upcharge); sure glad I gave her a fin for the minute it took to ring in our order. Gives me everything "to go" in a bag - um, we're eating here. No drinks - Um, what about our drinks, Miss? Gives me the two waters. No napkins - um, may I have some napkins, Miss? She's irritated. Take it back to the table. My wife says she had an iced tea! She did. She paid for it! Argh. She says the heck with it. Fine; whatever gets us out of here fastest. Okay, we eat. The food's actually pretty tasty. Pitas are fresh, meat is generous and not overcooked. Condiments and extras are interesting and in appropriate proportions. (I had a Super Gyro with hummus; wife had an original gyro and canceled her feta and olive bowl because of the undisclosed upcharge. Never got the tea she ordered and paid for.) Music's still blaring. Fruit flies are still fruit-flying. Landing on our hands while we eat. We eat fast and get up to leave. I holler "Thank you" and wave on the way out. Workers look up but no response. I had a bad time at my supper at this Gyro Shack and doubt I'll return. I appear to be in a minority: People were streaming in the whole time, and the drive-through was full. They are highly reviewed here on Yelp. They clearly don't need our business and they evidently don't care about being accurate or even polite to us. Shook the dust from my feet in the parking lot . . . Service (rude and inaccurate): 1 out of 5 Value (Cali pricing for good but not great food in a dumpy environment: 2/5 Food quality: 4/5 Overall: 2 read more

Gyro Shack - These prices we were charged were more than the menu said it would be. (My wife caught it and went up to complain and got $5 back.) - A crumpled paper receipt from Gyro Shack, located at 2100 Eubank Boulevard Northeast, Albuquerque, NM, is shown on a textured surface. It details a takeout order including a super gyro with green spicy sauce, combo hummus cup pita, and water, along with an original gyro, feta and olives bowl, and tea. The receipt includes the cashier's name, date, time, and total cost of $36.15, with tax and subtotal information. - Greek Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

I loved it here! Disappointed that there is no bike parking, but the food was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere was lovely and the service was fast, easy, and friendly. When they messed up another order, they gave it to me! Definitely visiting again. New favorite place to eat. read more

I was soooo excited to try this brand new place out and man it was absolutely delicious. I got a Philly gyro with green chile and ranch instead of tzatziki and it was fresh, warm, and amazingly delicious. The chile was super fresh and spicy good. The pita was soft and pillowy. The cheese was melty and hit the comfort food spot. I ordered a combo and got the Lemon Orzo soup as my side. It was just as good as the gyro. I also got some white chocolate lemon cookies. I'm telling you, I ate like a queen. The atmosphere is wonderful. It's very family oriented and the owners were super friendly. I love that it has a drive thru also. I cannot recommend this place enough. I will definitely be back to try everything on the menu. Cheers! read more

I am legitimately obsessed with this place. I love Greek/Mediterranean and there aren't many quick and easy options up in the heights. After hearing about this place and people raving about it, I had to check it out. Hubby and I are huge fans and have been back several times. For our first go we tried the gyros- I think the Supreme and it was delicious. Our next visit more recently we tried the rice bowls and WOW. So, generally nothing about a rice bowl excites me. I'm not that big of a rice fan but I was intrigued by the lemon rice description so I opted to try it. OMG...it is SO GOOD. The awesomeness of the regular gyro but with this amazing lemon rice. We both got the Super Rice Bowl and it was HUGE. I wish there was a bit more meat considering the portions of the other items but if you're starving it will fill you up and if you have self control, it can easily be two meals. One of the best deals in town for sure. The tzatziki is delicious along with the hummus. I do love the red and green sauce but always opt for it on the side- some things work better with one vs. the other. For those who are more sensitive to spicy, the red and greens sauces can be very spicy. We've also had a chance to try the baklava (YUM- definitely recommend) and the deliciously refreshing lemon cookies (like summer in a cookie!). I love that you can also order online and pick up through the drive through. Service has always been very friendly too. I'm a huge fan and love that this is something I can grab for dinner on the way home from work or even an awesome lunch for something different. Great value too. read more

I have been twice and everything is always great. This place is quickly becoming a go to for me for a quick meal. Meat is good and service has been great. read more

Gyro Shack - Philly Gyro! - A gyro sandwich features melted cheese, green peppers, and mushrooms inside a pita bread. The sandwich appears to be freshly prepared, with cheese stretching and some ingredients spilling out. It is served on branded paper from Gyro Shack in Albuquerque, NM, indicating the location. The image captures the close-up of the sandwich, highlighting the ingredients and presentation. - Greek Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

It's a chain and it's not homemade food. I didn't realize this. It tastes decent (3 stars) but it's highly processed and full of preservatives.. I can tell. Quality is 3 stars. Price is pretty high for what it is. Service is 5 stars. read more

The food was cold. All of it. The people there were kind of weird. Acting funny. The place just seemed a little sketchy. When you go take a good look at the kitchen. read more

Great service and tasty food!! We ordered in store and it was fast! Customer service was beyond great and we left the establishment feeling very satisfied. The owner offered us drinks as we waited for our order. The restaurant was clean and had a walk up counter where we were greeted. Open and airy establishment. read more

What a gem this is! The excellent service and good fast-food keeps people coming back. They are busy! We got the regular gyro. The pita was fresh and soft. Plenty of tasty meat. The tzatziki was delicious as well. Please note, there is no way to leave a tip on the register; cash only. There are plenty of other options to try. I will be going back! read more

Good was presented in an appealing way and was tasty. Meat was fresh and the dressing enhanced the flavor of the sandwich. The pitas were fresh and warm. We also ordered French fries and next time I would only get one order for two. The portions are plentiful. We will return read more

When I rolled up at noon, the line was out the door so I took that as a good sign and decided to still wait! It did take me over 40 minutes to order and get my food, but I didn't mind. The building was previously an old Blake's Lotaburger so it wasn't anything fancy, but still clean and had enough seating for everyone in there. I really enjoyed my Deluxe Gyro! I want to order it next time but upgrade it to a rice bowl! The Greek Fries were so good! I highly recommend you order a side of hot sauce because it goes good with the gyro and fries! But I will say I wasn't a huge fan of the baklava. The manager, or perhaps owner, was there and was so friendly and nice to everyone! I saw a DoorDasher stop in to pick up an order and he offered him a complimentary drink. Those little things go along way in my eyes! read more

I came here for lunch around 1:15 on a Tuesday... i ordered a falafel sandwich..,food and service excellent... meal came with a verrrry nice cookie.. 4star...atmosphere very bland and overhead music annoying...will come back for the food and service...thank you read more

They care about their food here. The yummy gyros can be made as a salad instead of their traditional pita bread, which I prefer. The Tzatziki sauce is one of my favorites in town. The French fries have regular salted or with Greek seasonings. Both are delicious choices. The salad and veggies are fresh and tasty. When I want to treat myself to a good, quick lunch or dinner, I drive here because I know I will be happy with my food everytime. read more

First time trying this place, it was so good. I had the gobbler I think that's what it's called. The customer service was great , very friendly and helpful. The food was fresh and DELICIOUS! I'll be back! read more

The location of this restaurant is not good. When we went on a Saturday evening, there was one other couple in the whole place. The gyros were ok. The rice bowls had crunchy/uncooked rice. One came with a tasteless "green sauce." Service was fine. I think the bad location and mediocre food are reasons I likely wouldn't return. read more

I love gyros. The gyro was good. Fries were good. For $15, I would expect 2 Gyros though or at least twice as much meat that was on it. Was still hungry when I left ... read more

The quality for the price is great. Lots of flavor in the spicy sauce. Generous service. The cookies were fantastic: lemon and white chocolate. read more

Good food, clean restaurant and affordable . Need to iron out some kinks with ordering, but I'll be back!

I've eaten here 3 times. The first time was pretty good. The second time was awesome. Whoever built my gyro took pride in their job on the second trip I took there. The third trip was as about as sorry as could be . It was on a week-end. That had little pieces of meat trying to make the gyro look full. All that you could taste was the damn bread and that white sauce. The best I can tell you is go on a weekday when there is a guy named Daniel working. You're more likely to get a great gyro with the appropriate amount of meat in it. A good place overall. read more

Fantastic! We are on a cross country move from Orlando to Vegas and after eating here, we considered living in Albuquerque. The staff was beyond friendly, we cannot wait to come back and see their smiling faces. It was clean and the food came out super quick. And our meal was super affordable. We will be back. Thank you Gyro Shack!! read more

WOW this place was a good surprise! We weren't sure how big they'd be or which one's we'd like so we ordered 3. We went with the Deluxe, the Chicken Bacon Ranch, and the Philly. My GF loved the chicken bacon ranch, and I thought it was good as well. My favorite, surprisingly, was the Philly. It was amazing! Warm, with melted cheese, inside the soft & fresh Pita, it sshhhhmacked! The deluxe was great too! There's a very good and fair amount of meat inside. I think ordering 1 for lunch would be totally fine. If you are hungry though it seems like 1 may not be quite enough, but 2 is a lot! I can't wait to go back! read more

We decided to try this place out and the food was great! The gyros were good and we opted for the Greek fries, which was definitely worth the up charge. We'll have to come back and check out some of the other gyros! read more

AI got us this time for our #saturday #abqrestaurants #review ! We were thinking gyros and were excited when a previously unreviewed restaurant popped up on the list. When we pulled up to @gyroshackusa shack we were a little concerned because it was located in a fast food establishment but we rolled with it and were quite pleased! It also helped that the woman who walked in with us was an enthusiastic repeat customer! The dining room and bathrooms were clean and the staff were all super friendly! We sat in the dining room (perhaps a previous White Castle) and were served in paper bags . Here's where we were surprised... Tucked into the bag were mints and some kind of sweet cookie (I have taste it again tomorrow!). I ordered the traditional gyro while hubby ordered the falafel with Greek fries, and both were fresh and delicious. Definitely 4/5 and will be back! #gourmetrecovery #foodfreedom #intuitiveeating #foodfreedom #gentlenutrition read more

Gyro Shack - Traditional gyro sandwich - Greek Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

We ordered 3 gyros on Doordash, the gyros just had protein and pita, they were missing all the other ingredients! The meat didn't even taste fresh and we paid almost $50 for 3 gyros! read more

Food is absolutely amazing!!! Fresh & tasty! Greek fries are a must try!!! I love the friendly service as well. Owner is usually there and he is an awesome fellow! If you're in ABQ looking for something new but quick, this is a must try! read more

Went here for the 1st time a few weeks ago; overall, the deluxe gyro was 'ok,' along with a greek side salad, baklava and a cookie. The desserts were delicious, while the gyro was cold. Salad was good. I'm not sure what I was expecting; overall, it was OK, but I feel it should be better, given the price ($19 for everything). I'll give it another try (eventually), but not today. read more

Gave the Gyro Shack a try today for a late 130pm workday lunch run. I went inside to order and got such a nice friendly greeting. I said I had not been a customer before and the host quickly explained the menu options. I selected an Original Combo with hummus as my side. I waited less than 3 minutes before my order was handed to me (with a smile & thank you) in a brown paper bag with a nice blue Gyro Shack logo. The drive back to my office was tough with all the yummy aroma coming from the bag. Back at my desk, I opened the bag to find my gyro wrapped with attention to detail to hold in the heat and in two layers so that the gyro could be eaten cleanly by hand. The gyro was toasty warm with well seasoned meat along with fresh, crisp white onions and flavorful tomato wedges. The Tzatziki sauce was tasty and while I could have used a touch more of it, it more than lasted to the last bite. And the pita had the right fluffy texture holding it all together - score! The hummus side was smooth and had an extra tang of lemon that I really liked. I could make a meal of just that. And as an extra surprise, they included a yummy lemon cookie. Such a nice gesture and a good sign of wanting to take care of their customers! I will be back soon to try a Deluxe Gyro or a Greek salad and their limited time offered Lemon Chicken Rice Soup...one of my fav Greek dishes. And more hummus too. Opa! read more

It was pretty decent. Not as tasty as I imagined, but I'd try it again to make sure. The tzatziki was good, but needed more. Great service though. And the free lemon cookie was a plus! read more

Great flavors and good service, I can always depend on a delicious and filling lunch anytime I'm on this side of town. I've never ordered the same things twice but have always been satisfied. The fries are possibly the best on the east side. read more
