I have no picture at all of my food I ate because it was so good. I tore that falafel Gyro up. Their food is very fresh. My friend had got a meat platter. The meat was so tender. It was juicy. They cut them up and small pieces. It was definitely worth it. Well organized. They get your food in and out and very fill-in. I do recommend this place. You could also sit down and have dinner there it's not just Take out the people that served me was very caring, considerate and patient. I really appreciate the food there and the service.

Gyro Sandwich

Gyros are one of my favorite comfort foods and of the gyros I've tried around New York City, Gyro World is the place that keeps me coming back for more consistently. The quality of the food is apparent and my only regret after any visit is that I can't help myself and wind up eating my meal all in one sitting when the sensible thing to do would be to split the generous portions throughout at least 2-3 meals. A massively full stomach is the price you pay for top-notch ingredients, fast and friendly service and a no-frills operation. In addition to the gyros I'm a big fan of Gyro World's chicken souvlaki and always save room for desserts like their delectable rice pudding or their addictive orange cake.

Would've been a 4 but we had an awkward service experience. Came here for the "Yelp Gyro" and it was honestly pretty decent. The hummus spread that they put on it gave it a unique taste. I'd definitely suggest grabbing some tzatziki on the side because they didn't give me any when I ordered. Also ordered the calamari and I'm surprised as how fantastic it was. I'd definitely go there again just to order that and grab some pita on the side as well! (Maybe not the gyro but I'm not a gyro with fries type of guy, but maybe I would've enjoyed it more if there was more sauce). Service was good in the beginning until we tried to go back and put in an order for calamari as well. The young lady didn't seem to understand what we were trying to do and instead of asking for help she just kept asking us if we paid. Even printed out a random $39 order that we didn't place at all (idk why she did that and we literally said we only ordered a Yelp gyro lol). Ambiance is okay I guess, it's a gyro spot lol def stop in for lunch though. Grab that calamari for sure.

Overall, Gyro World is a neighborhood gem for anyone looking for good food that's affordable. It's perfect for solo meals, family gatherings, or even takeout. The front of the restaurant is not waited on and there are signs that say you need to go order from the counter. The back of the restaurant seems to have table service. The atmosphere is relaxed, with casual vibe. The staff is friendly and efficient, The food is served pretty quickly even during busy hours. My greek salad with grilled chicken was good as was the beef/lamb gyro. My usual "go to" is their lemon avgolemono soup - yum!

Good food and service as usual. Have raised prices but offer plenty. Sign up that table service may resume soon.

Lunch Box

Came in around lunch time and stumbled upon this place. We both got the chicken souvlaki lunchbox special. The presentation is super convenient & cute!! You do get the option to change your sides; lemon potatoes, rice or French fries (+1$). The chicken itself is quite tender and the fries did not disappoint. The white taziki sauce was more on the chunky side, but I didn't mind it. The service was patient with us, they are definitely strong on the "providing customer service" as they were very bright and passionate. (You can just tell :)) I would like to try other things on the menu soon when I'm around the area. Keep up the good service & yummy food.

we frequent this place and usually order their large gw platter that feeds up to 8 people. it comes with (beef & lamb gyro, pork gyro, bifteki, chicken bifteki, pork souvlaki, chicken souvlaki, & loukaniko, served with pita & tzatziki). it's great for gatherings and everyone gets a full plate full of food.

Really enjoyed the food here. The staff are easy to speak with and helpful. The interior is clean and the decor is cute. Nice place to go with friends, date, or family.

roaches in the back.crawling and scurring they dont clean properly only with windex. honestly the food is also reallyy blanddd

Menu

I came here with my daughter who wanted a Gyro sandwich so bad and I was unsure about what I was gonna be able to get being that I do not eat meat. The place itself is spacious and there is also outdoor seating tables and benches available. There is street parking and possibly parking in the back I am unsure about this. The staff and service overall was nice so here's the way it works you order your food in the front you pick a table and they bring you your food when it's ready simple. I did ask a staff member that was at the register to help me along with the menu to better understand what I was going to be ordering . So for my daughter, I did order a chicken Gyro and a side of fries. There were three options of chicken and I went with his choice since they're made in three different ways. For myself, I ordered a fish sandwich now he did mention that he probably would not recommend this item but I still wanna have an ordered it and I am 100% happy with my decision. The fish sandwich came with two fried pieces of fish, lettuce, tomato on a bun and a side of tartar sauce. The sandwich was a great size, but I just realized from having the sandwich that I've never had a real fish sandwich. The sandwich is highly recommended. I ordered sautéed onions and peppers to go on top of the sandwich because I really like onions and peppers. However, the sandwich was fine just the way that it came, I absolutely cannot wait to return to have this sandwich again.

I was in the area and been craving for Greek food since it's been a while. GyroWorld is Mediterranean fare and when you walk in, you're immediately greeted by the wafting smell of gyro and romantic Greek music playing overhead (I had no clue what the lyrics are saying but it sounded very romantic to me). This location happened to be a block from where I parked so it was quite convenient considering it was below 30°F outside at the time and I didn't want to be walking any further than that in the cold. It was surprisingly quiet for a Sunday (only one table of customers). I've been having a hard time finding pork gyro in this part of Queens - most places either tell me they don't serve it or had sold out for the day. I was so glad that GyroWorld has it! The girl at the counter seemed only a few years younger than me and was great at customer service. She strongly insisted I didn't need to tip since I'm ordering to-go and before I could say anything, she pressed "skip" on the tip screen for me. Personally, I tip regardless of whether I dine in or not so even though it was too late to do it on my card, I gave her a tip in cash (especially because she was so sweet and truly wasn't asking for anything; I just hope that others would do the same). I also really wished I had found this place sooner because just look at the packaging!! It's like an adult Greek happy meal!! My inner child was so excited seeing this. The pork was so flavorful - even the charred bits - and the sides paired so beautifully with it. I finished every morsel of food in that box (minus the olive - I'm not a fan of olives) and it kept me full the whole night. I will definitely be returning.

I had family visiting so we came here for breakfast on a Sunday. Man I was pleasantly surprised! I had the American breakfast which had eggs, toast, hash browns and your choice of meat, I had bacon. Eggs over medium were perfect, bacon was super crispy as I requested and the hash browns were amazingly fried! Service was also quite good. They even gave a bit of extra food for my babies. Surprising thing is nothing was scooped from the buffet, you can tell it was made fresh. Definitely a step up from your typical hotel restaurant breakfast and better than most diners. I feel like this is a breakfast hidden gem in flushing

Shout outs to the workers who were very welcoming and kept the buffet stocked. No complaints. Came during a stay at the Marco and it was one of the best complimentary hotel breakfasts I've had.

The customer service was also really good and fast here! The servers were really nice here and the food came out super fast, despite the menu saying that it would take a long for some menu items to come out. They said the Japanese soufflé pancake would take 20-30 minutes for it to come out, but it came out in around 10 minutes. There is also a variety with the menu and there is a lot of items to try from burger, pasta, ice cream, pancakes, croffle, and etc. The prices are also good here, the items were all each around $20 per dish. I definitely recommend this place and will be coming back to try more of their dishes. The location is good and the hours here are also amazing. The restaurant is open from 6:30am-9:30pm, which makes it a great place to get breakfast here, when not a lot of other places are open yet. Price: $20-$30 Rating: 9.5/10

The outdoor section was covered well enough for the colder weather. However, it did start raining hard, so we moved inside after enjoying the view. I had the guava highball and then the Open Sesame cocktail. The highball was very strong, but I didn't really get a lot of the guava flavor. The Open Sesame was so sugary and delicious, though! The perfect blend of sweet coconut and slightly umami sesame seeds flavor. The popcorn chicken was my favorite bar snack of the night. The gyoza was ok, and the quesadilla was a little sweet, though I couldn't figure out where the sweetness came from. The manager kept coming around to sell us shots, so there was no lack of attention in service lol. The music was a tad loud for it not being a lounge where you could move around freely and dance.
