    Feta Greek Friesfries - A serving of crinkle-cut French fries topped with shredded cheese, herbs, and crumbled cheese is shown in a clear container. A small plastic cup of creamy white dipping sauce is placed on top of the fries. The fries are golden and crispy, with visible seasoning and toppings, and the sauce appears to be a ranch or similar dressing.

    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.

    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.

    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

    lemon chicken rice soup
    Rachael H.

    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!

    Lemon cookie with hint of white chocolate. - A single lemon-flavored cookie with a golden-yellow color and a slightly cracked surface, featuring a small piece of white chocolate in the center. The cookie rests on a piece of white paper, which is on a dark surface. The cookie appears soft and moist, with a hint of white chocolate flavor.

    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.

    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.

    One word... DELICIOUS! You must go... you must eat... you will enjoy! First time coming to the Gyro Shack and I'll be back!

    Delicious Gyro
    Heide P.

    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!

    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.

What was even better was the taste of both the Gyro and the feta fries. As you can see from the photo the Gyro was stuffed full of meat and other goodies while the feta fries were plentiful and all covered with sauce and seasonings. Absolutely delicious. I can't comment on the ambience because I got delivery, as usual. But the delivery went smoothly, and as stated above, the presentation of the food was stellar. I also had a second order from them about six weeks later that I ordered with several friends. Again, the food's presentation was appealing, and the food was great. My friends also indicated that their salad and Mediterranean sampler were delicious. I will definitely be ordering from them again, and I don't think you'll be disappointed if you do the same.

I started with Spanakopita and Avgolemono soup. The Spanakopita had the perfect flaky pastry and was a delight to eat. The Avgolemono was fire. Just a hint of lemon with a generous portion of chicken with rice and finished with a sprinkle of dill. Highly recommend! For my dinner, I chose the Souvlaki plate with lamb, steak and added a chicken skewer and a side of lemon potatoes. Perfectly cooked and seasoned meats, generous portions, a tasty and satisfying meal. The lemon potatoes were awesome. Crispy exterior and soft center delicious. I had to order the Baklava to go (you have to eat the house made Baklava at a Greek restaurant) because I was so full after the generous portions....but it looks amazing. All the food is fresh and made on site. A fabulous experience for lunch!!!!!

I even tried the hummus which to my surprise was very good. I do not as a rule enjoy chick peas, but this mix was delightful. The restaurant itself carried the desired theme, even offering traditional low seating for those who wish that feeling. Solid five stars.
