It was buy 1 get 1 free so i ordered on Uber Eats and went there to pick it up. Upon arrival, i only received one item. So i asked the lady but she refused to honor the deal. I even showed her "buy 1 get 1 free" deal on the Uber Eats app AND my receipt but she not only even tried to honor the deal but also was being kinda rude. She literally snatched my phone off of my hand and tried to prove that Im the wrong one. They never said sorry or anything. I figured that it is waste of my time to argue with her since she CLEARLY did not want to honor the deal so i just walked away. Please do not fall for false advertisement. They just want to lure customers. Very unhappy experience. read more

Not bad. But I've had better. The specials are great. Should allow dine in with the specials though.

Great spot for a quick and filling meal in Astoria. Order your choice of grilled meats at the counter and select the side dishes and format - sandwich, platter etc. the food is flavorful and portions are large. It's a basic cafeteria/diner style setup inside, nothing fancy but it's light and bright and clean. Good value for money, especially at lunchtime. Staff are friendly and they have indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Gyro World Astoria - Pork Gyro Lunch Box. - Mediterranean Near Me - Astoria, New York

Gyro World is serving up authentic Greek dishes in Astoria. I was able to try a plethora of dishes. The meats were seasoned well and juicy. That chicken and gyro were fire and packed with flavor. Then on the souvlaki meats I got bigger pieces of chicken with herbs on it. I was able to try different spreads like spicy feta and tzatziki. The pita was nice and fresh. It was my first time trying The Greek sweets. The baklava was amazing. The texture on the orange pie was interesting and you get a rich orange flavor. Overall this place has a family vibe to it. Shout out to Dimitri who helped me. read more

We have been ordering from Gyro World for past year now, and we usually get a good deal on Uber Eats (buy 1 get 1 lunch/dinner box). My family and I love their chicken souvlaki box and that is what we typically order. Can't go wrong with a simple Greek chicken souvlaki platter especially in Astoria, right?! Well .... Wrong. We ordered last week and it was a disaster. The rice was undercooked, and the Greek salad came with a creamy mustard dressing. This had never occurred in the past. My daughter is severely allergic to sesame seeds, yet the menu does not did not state this. Many people are allergic to seeds and this is something that can be life threatening so please let your customers know this! Although I am not Greek, I am from Astoria born and bred and this is the first time I come across Greek salad with a creamy mustard dressing. To make matters even worse, I call them since I tasted mustard in dressing and wanted to make sure since my daughter is allergic. The gentleman on phone checked with the kitchen and the confirmed. He then hands the phone over to the "manager", a lady who went on a rant about how she had been working there for 15 year?! No ma'am you guys have only been there for 8 years. She got so defensive stating that their salad has "always" come with that creamy mustard dressing. Nope, I've only gotten it with red wine vinaigrette. She never apologized and was so unprofessional and confrontational and just because of that, we will never, ever order from you again. Good riddance, and Gyro Lady from now on it will be! read more

Ate here today by myself on a nice Wednesday morning trying this place out. I had only brought the beef and lamb platter that comes with pita bread, raw onions, tomatoes, fries, a can of soda and tzatziki sauce. It was definitely great and delicious. The service was just alright and the cashier took my order was kind of rude to me while I was trying to order and served me with an attitude when I sat down patiently and got my order correctly. Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time. read more

My mini me was in the mood for a gyro so we were in the neighborhood and stopped on in this place. Spot was quaint and they even had outdoor seating that was closed in. We chose to sit inside. Our server took care of us right away. We both ordered the lamb gyro. Lots of lamb. Nice and tasty. It was too much for me and I wasn't able to finish it. Not too bad of a spot if you're looking for gyros. read more

I always order here on Uber eats. My go too is the chicken souvlaki pita sandwich and it so good. So juicy and flavorful. I also love the fries. Today I added an order of fried calamari and that was delicious also. You can't go wrong. read more

Extremely disappointed by the food! Food: I ordered the spinach pie, chicken gyro pita, and chicken Caesar sandwich. The spinach pie tasted raw, where it was hard to bite into the shell and was too salty. The chicken gyro pita sandwich had a weird after taste and the chicken felt rubbery. The fries were very oily Price: compared to the size and quality of gyros you can get else where in Astoria, the prices here are pretty high Service: I ordered through Uber eats and it just took so long for me to get the food. read more

The gyros here are amazing. The closest you can get to a gyro from Greece without actually being there. The meat is flavorful without being to greasy, the vegetables are bright and fresh, and the fries are delicious too. The service is also great. read more

Went in on a weeknight@ 9 pm so wasn't busy at all. The rating in the window was pending so after ordering food we were a little curious so we looked out up.. ok nothing bad after looking up why the rating was pending... The Spinach pie was not worth ordering, chicken gyro and french fries very salty... I can't say we will be going again any time soon. read more

I placed an order thru Uber eats. They had a special going on that said "buy one get one free" I decided to order for that reason. I ordered the chicken souvlaki dinner box that comes with chicken souvlaki, lemon potatoes or rice (I chose potatoes) and a Greek salad. The restaurant then called me to tell me they are not doing that special and wanted to let me know so I'm not disappointed. They asked if that was ok and I said sure. I received my food and the portions were extremelyyyyyyy small!!! I could understand If that was the portion with the buy one get one free special but for $18.95?!?! Normally a chicken souvlaki platter comes with at least 2 souvlaki sticks .. this came with one!!! The salad had no feta cheese and I received 3 pieces of potatoes. Not only was the "buy one get one free" false advertising but the food itself was a disappointment. I won't be ordering from here again. read more

Been trying to find a good Gyro spot for a while b/c the one near me on 21st & 36th St don't make fresh Gyro. So I tried this spot b/c it's part of a chain from Bayside. It looks almost exactly like it. I ordered 2 Gyro sandwich's and a side order of fries to go. I get in the bag 1 Gyro inside with fries. I had told the guy I wanted a side order of fries not a combo on top of that he only gave me 1 Gyro of which I also said 2 Gyro's. During check out I noticed the price of the Gyro was $19 each, I was like why is it so expensive, other spots charge like $10 to $12. The Gyro's was good and packed with meat and the fries were good as well, but it does not justify $19 a Gyro. I will think about coming here next time until I find another spot to order. read more

The quality of food is always good, fresh vegetables especially. It has always been, for us, overpriced but delicious. Service has always been very friendly. Recently they've reduced the portions, the size of the vegetables and halloumi in the halloumi lunch box ($18, in photo) are all about 2/3 the size they used to be. Smaller and thinner sliced. And no pita included anymore. Used to be a once in a while thing but not likely to visit much anymore in favor of some other places that also do halloumi well. read more

I really like this place, service is awesome ,super friendly. Food here is amazing, there greek salad and lemon potatoes is a must try. This place is impeccable, and extra clean. Fresh and tasty, prepared right infront of you. The line moves fast and the staff is always very friendly. I've told a few friends about this place and they all agree. Great tasting gyro sandwich. Go for a combination plates that are available for a good variety of Greek specialties. Pricing is on the high side, but nonetheless this restaurant holds it's own with nearby competitors. Great place, great Food, and open late. They also deliver. read more

We have been patrons of this establishment a couple of times and both times the food was decent to great. The second time we came, they forgot the fava dip and apologized by reheating the already cold bread and gave us a mini cup of their spicy cheese to try. Yesterday, we ordered taramasalata (fish roe yogurt) dip, bifteki the meatloaf patties) platter that comes with a spinach pie and lemon potatoes, and a chicken bifteki(think chicken meatloaf). The roe came first, it was ok. Then someone decided to take a sharp left turn to crazyville. The spinach pie. We read about their pie on the paper placemat they laid on the table and thought it would be nice to try something they're so proud of. Boy, were we in for a surprise. The pastry dough was tough, chewy and dried out. When the waiter swung by to check in on us, we told him about the pie. He said umm for a second and left us with the unfinished pie. We had to flag him down a second time to ask for a replacement. He said he would get back to us after speaking to the manager. He then came back and told us he could not replace the pie because it was mostly eaten. Mind you, this is a side order included in the platter meal. We both took one bite each to the slice of pie and I had to spit the pie out because the texture of the crust was just too chewy. He said the only thing he could do is have us order something else and that he has to charge us again. Not only did he not try to rectify the problem, he asked us why we did not tell him to replace the pie the first time around. We said we did tell him about and he said he stood there a good five seconds after he checked in on us the first time (he stood there for a sec and ran off). I had to question him why does that even matter whether we asked him to replace the pie the first time around or the second time around. A server should offer a replacement or at least be helpful and take the inedible food away and apologize for the chef. Not in this case! Was it our job to give him options? The rest of the food that came afterwards were unremarkable. The lemon potatoes which are normally good here were hard and dry and the biftekis were undistinguishable loaves of fillers. By the end of the meal, the pies were still sitting on our table. Needless to say, we left $0 tip to the skinny waiter with the curly hair and glasses (Petros R.) Why would we order other food items and try to rip you off of a side order?!?! We also has been served by the same waiter the first time we were here. Oh well! Another place to cross off of Astoria. read more

This restaurant explicitly ignored the request to separate the food for a vegetarian who hasn't eaten meat in nearly 2 decades. They mixed all of the dip together after the the instructions stated to clearly place them in different containers. God forbid this person had a food allergy. Total disregard for customers request. I do not recommend this restaurant for anyone who has dietary restrictions or food allergies. Youll run the risk of not following your request and ruining your dining experience read more

After exploring the nearby Museum of the Moving Image, my boyfriend and I stumbled upon this place on 30th Ave here in Astoria. Knowing that this neighborhood is known for Greek food, we figured we'd stop for a bite. The setup is casual, as you'd expect from a regular gyro joint but the menu is the real deal. We ordered Cokes (his Mexican, mine diet) and meals. I went with the open-faced lamb gyro, while he went with the pork souvlaki platter, both priced decently. Service was a little slow, but we chalked this up to the staff being meticulous with preparing good food. Our meal came with fresh pita, drizzled in olive oil and served with a side of tzatziki. The bread had a good elasticity, with enough oil to glide blissfully into our stomachs. The tzatziki was creamy and fresh, with good herbal notes. Both of these paired well with our meals. My boyfriend enjoyed his pork souvlaki; though both of us found it a bit chewy, it was still filled with flavor. He also enjoyed his crisp side Caesar and his fries (which were on the soft side, but well seasoned). As for me, i learned that "open-faced" in this case, came with small bites of pita alongside meat, onion, tomato, and feta to "build your own" gyro. No matter. My gyro meat was perfect, with a good amount of savory spice and texture that elevates it beyond everyday New York street meat. It paired well with the freshness of the tzatziki, the sharp bite of onion, the softness of the bread, and the saltiness of the feta. A winning combination for sure! Come here if you want a quick meal in Astoria! read more

I lived in Astoria back in the 90s and that's when I really developed a love for Greek and other Mediterranean cuisine. I had some work in Queens a few months ago and found this great gyro spot. Each month, I stop by and get a chicken souvlaki with pita and two beef and lamb gyros. Don't forget the extra side of Tzatziki which is delightful! If you're in the mood for a little extra something, I enjoy the Spanikopita (Spinach Pie) and the baklava. read more

When they opened here in Astoria, I would have rated them a 3.5 overall (4.0 food- 3.0 high price/service). I have ordered at least a dozen times since and they have improved mainly in the price (turns out other Greek restaurants are very similarly priced). I did not count the Greek food trucks prices and Gyro World's score should not suffer from that perspective. Which raised their score to a solid 4.0. But last night I ordered through the Seamless app for pickup and when I arrived the order was not there. Turns out the Seamless app sent my order to the Fresh Pond, Maspeth location and not the Astoria location which is the only one I've ever used and since the app uses the phone GPS I have no clue why it diverted to the different store & area. So this is where they have earned their *****5***** star rating from me. Lambros at the counter called up the Maspeth location and told them to ignore the Seamless mistake and he will handle it here in Astoria. He got my order from my phone and proceeded to fulfill it. He understood the honest error, didn't bust my Loukoumades AND let me know they have their own order app that does not rip the restaurant off in 3rd party inflated commissions. So to sum up: Bye Bye (GrubHub/Seamless app) and hello to gyroworld(dot)com and Lambros and his customer service gives them a 5 star hands down. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk. read more

Gyro world rocked my world. Been wanted to spend my hard earned dough here for a long time, and a cold December night was perfect. Ordering over the phone was quick and to the point. The place new the ropes and I'm happy about the overall service. What we ordered: -Gyro Platter ($14.95) Comes with a soup/salad, choice of meat, fries sauce, and smiles. -Chicken Gyro sanch ($8.95). Pita wrapped in joy. Pickup was quick, food was hot, and we had leftovers for lunch the next day. Can say we'll be back with bigger eyes for multiple platters. read more

Nice atmosphere inside and outside the restaurant. Stumbled upon the place while walking along 30th ave. (Many restaurants and cafes in the area). Kids had classic burgers, and fries for addtl. $3.95. Very good, they said. Four of us decided to share the small grill meat platter with a variety to try (at a great price): Beef & Lamb Gyro, Pork Gyro, Bifteki, Chicken Bifteki, Pork Souvlaki, Chicken Souvlaki, Loukaniko. with fries under all the meat, Pita Bread and Tzatziki. We didn't expect the big amount. We were told good for 2-4 people. We added a side order of lemon potatoes but was actually not needed. We needed some veggies though. read more

What a disappointment from both types of experiences dine in and pickup (since we live down the block). Our order yesterday was so disgusting.

Too expensive for garbage. read more

I'm still on a hunt for a gyro place that measures up to the ones I've eaten in Greece. The portions are pretty big here but the pork gyro meat was a little dryer than I would of liked. I'm of the mind an average gyro is still better than no gyro. The hunt continues. read more

The food is alright. I feel like it's over priced. I just don't like the way they serve the food for you. I feel like I'm at a shelter receiving food for free the way they pack up your food at this place. The ambiance is pretty cool. Although I sat outside. The service isn't all that including the fact that they just tell you here's your food and NEVER come to check in on you....kinda sucks tbh. It's like a grab and gtfo here type of spot. Thanks for spending $80 on two plates of chicken & pork.....lol yea like I said over priced....but their spicy feta hit the spot ! I'll give it 3 Stars and that's........a lot read more

I ordered the first time today delivery from Gyro World. All I can say is WOW! The food was so delicious. Gyro World has become my new spot for Greek Delicacies. I had started with the Avgolemono soup. Chunks of chicken , very tender and very tasty. I also had a chicken gyro sandwich. A MUST TRY if you enjoy deliciously prepared chicken and a really good tzatziki sauce. I was so impressed I am writing this 20 minutes after eating! Do not hesitate to try this place, I have ordered many gyros, Astoria is a haven for them but I have never had one this good. read more
