I don't understand all the very positive reviews! Quiet evening, we were the only ones in for dinner. There were a few take outs that we saw but for the most part, nothing much else going on besides us. We ordered the entree plates with salad. The salad was ok, nothing special. The dressing tasted like store bought. The gyro meats were moist and tasty, the hummos was creamy, the baba ganousch was for the most part, not very good! Dessert, we split a large homemade baklava, we've had better, elsewhere. I was looking forward to a really nice meal based on the reviews, maybe we hit a very off night.
Nice and cozy Mediterranean restaurant that seemed to be popular with catering and to-go orders mainly. I was the only one dining in and it was pretty casual with the food being ordered and finding a seat myself. The portion was pretty big and I'd say the meat tasted tender and juicy. Didn't blow me away but it was decent if you're looking for a quick bite of halal/Mediterranean food!
Just updated my review from last time that mentioned the odd flavor of the rice. All good this time and just loved all the food. Thank you Celia for the complimentary baklava. Love this place.
The name and exterior are unassuming, but they have a full menu (not just gyros) and an amazing lamb shank! From start to finish, the lamb shank meal was on point. It started with a salad that was simple, but very fresh and had the right amount of dressing, and then came the main plate with rice, hummus and the lamb shank. The rice and hummus were both really tasty. But the lamb shank - wow! It was served in a hearty broth with potatoes and carrots, like a stew. Every bite of the lamb was fall off the bone tender, and plenty of marrow in the bones too. Service was laid-back and friendly. When I ordered the lamb shank she said "good choice." That's the thing to get.
It's located in an old building dying to be renovated. After carefully maneuvering the pot holes and crowded parking lot, we were able to secure the space. About 6 pm, one customer was inside. Decided to check the other restaurant which appeared to be more modern. Only one customer also. Saw gyro platter for $19.99 and, after looking at the Yelp rating, decided to try this place. Not so impressed 1st of all, the waitress was busy talking on her cell phone face timing and couldn't careless about customers. She motioned us to grab a table while chatting onnthe phone. After seating down, she brought two menus and went back to the counter. She was back at it again. Place was loud with music and her voice added to the noise assault to my ears. Since she didn't take the order and I didn't know the steps, I got up to order at the counter. She motioned me to sit down and she came over to take the order. Our grape leaves and salad came out quickly. About 5 minutes later, our food came out to the counter, but she was busy trying to take care of phone orders. The grape leaves were good. Side salad was plain but ok. The gyro plate was ok. Hummus and rice were well seasoned and loved it. The interior of the restaurant is old and didn't look too clean. Looks like the floors are new. I can also smell the faint sewage order. Good thing it didn't get worse. If I was doing the takeout, I would have given 4 stars or higher on their food. For in dining experience, two at the best. If I gave a 5-star review, I would have gotten the baklava. That's what the handwritten sign suggests. I may come back and try the other meat combo. Wish me luck!
Gyros Town is a true gem! The chicken shawarma and gyros are packed with flavor, perfectly cooked, and the baklava is heavenly. Amazing food, warm ambiance, and top-notch service make this spot a must-visit for Mediterranean lovers!
Not sure about the ratings on this restaurant... The chicken shawarma was extremely bland and had an almost off aftertaste. The sauces included helped a bit but they still weren't enough to improve the lack of seasoning. The pita and hummus were delicious but I wouldn't return only for those.
We got the beef and chicken shawarma arabi (distinct because it's crunchy) Ambiance is great and smells delicious. The food is excellent. The service was amazing
This place reminds me of the restaurant that my Lebanese grandmother would bring me to. Food was the best Lebanese food I've had in CO other than Safta. Food was made quick and Jasmine was so kind and helped me right away
Along with the delicious food and fast service, the staff went above and beyond to accommodate our six person table. Shout out to our amazing server, a young woman with curly hair, for her patience and the free dessert! Will definitely be returning soon.
Now thiiiiis is what I'm talking about!!!! As soon as I walked in I knew this was the real deal-- the give away?... Plastic cover on the tablecloth!! IF YOU KNOW YOU KNOW!!!!! Growing up in Queens, NY dining at Gyros Town Restaurant instantly took me back to childhood where our neighbor invited our family over for hummus pita skewers and of course baklava. Eating here was so nostalgic and refreshing! Colorado needs more representation in these countries foods-- I am tired of the burgers and fried chicken spots!!!!!! The hummus at Gyros Town Restaurant was silky smooth, had great spiced and served with the warmest fluffiest pita I've had in Colorado. The gyro meat hit the spot on so many levels it's hard to really describe. The pistachio baklava was so delightful. Sweet but not too sweet-- flaky and of course baked fresh that day. Míriam greeted us when we walked in and helped to place our order. She was so kind and quick with her service. I am so glad I found a local spot with big immigrant flavors! Can't wait to be back soon :) read more

I've tried both locations, the one on Colorado boulevard and in Littleton. Most recently I tried this location. I was very happy with the food and the service. It feels very consistent for both locations so far. I think our family, especially our kids love how fresh and soft the pita bread. The hours were pretty convenient on a Saturday. They are open till 10:00 p.m. most days. I love their baba. Ghanoush and their salads are always fresh and have great flavor. For two adults and two children, six and seven a meat combo and appetizer and a salad. I can't wait to go back and try some of the other items. read more

Smelled like sewer upon entering but hubby wanted to go here. Our table was dirty and I asked the young woman up front with super long manicured fingernails to clean it which she tried but did a poor job. A man came and asked about drinks but I didn't get my hot tea for 10 minutes. They said they had to "make" it in back. Weird. Hot water and a tea bag in a cup needs to be made? It's very chaotic inside with people coming and going behind the counter and in the kitchen and not any clear idea of who our server was. The interior was shabby and dirty and dusty. The curtains tied in knots. The menus had sticky food on each laminated page and saw that the "servers" didn't do much cleaning at all. No utensils were provided. No napkins were given. My hot tea was plopped in front of me without a spoon or any sweeteners. However, their black tea brand they gave me was really delicious with a hint of cardamom. I reluctantly ordered food and it came out pretty fast. The portions were generous and actually tasted good but not great. The tzatziki wasn't garlicky at all. The gyro meat was a little bland and the rice beneath my meat was not piping hot. The food didn't taste like true Greek gyros and Greek hummus. The pita wasn't made fresh in house and one can tell. The last nail in the coffin for this place was the cigarette smoke coming from the kitchen into the dining area. This place is ugly and dirty and I will not be back. read more

It had gotten late and we were so hungry. We selected this restaurant because they appeared to be open until 10 PM. When we said we wanted to dine in, we were told they were closing at 9:30. That still gave us ample time to eat. This place is along a row of international restaurants. Inside, it's not huge, but it's cozy and clean. The Gyros plate was large and came with a salad. The presentation was beautiful. The ingredients were obviously fresh, and the meal was delicious. read more

I took a snapshot of our receipt (so you can see yourself). The food is getting UP-CHARGED way too high. It's out of control. My next stop is The Baghdad Restaurant. PARKING at Gyro Town is the worst!! And the rice is greasier than most. read more

The food here was really fresh, the ingredients seemed to be high quality, the flavors seemed to be very authentic, and the staff was friendly and smiling. The portion sizes are generous and we left the place stuffed. The prices I thought were very good as well, under $30 lunch for two is hard to find these days! We got the Gyro Sandwich and Falafal appetizer. The falafal balls especially were really big and the gyro sandwiches had a ton of meat in them. We liked how the gyro meat was not extremely salty like a lot of other gyros, and also how the pitas were thin but stayed together really well. There were also caramelized onions instead of raw onions in the gyro which was different and unique to us. The flavors of the gyro were a little muted though but still present, so not the best gyro I've ever had but it was still really good. Given the high quality of the food this is the type of place I'd consider coming back to try something new. They have a lot of other items on the menu besides gyros that we've never tried and this seems like the type of place that we could revisit to expand our horizons. read more
Believe the reviews. Been here 3 times the last month - hasn't disappointed once. We've had the gyro with hummus plate, beef sambrosas, chicken shawarma wrap lunch. All delicious. Parking a little tricky. Worst case park around the corner in the neighborhood. Come support a great local business. read more

It's either new to the menu or it's a special appetizer, they have the Beef Samosa now. I don't exactly know the ingredients besides beef, but it was really good. A lot of beef in it so it's very filling. I'm sure the popular order is the meat combo. A combination of lamb, chicken, and kafta, includes salad, hummus, bread, and rice. The chicken was a little dry but the lamb and kafta were great. Although I prefer my meat thinly sliced, with the thicker cut you can see its juicer. Lamb chops are marinated and char-broiled, served with rice, salad, hummus, and pita. Good size of food and the meat marinated very well. The only downside is the lamb chops contain more fat than I expected. The staff is friendly, and they have a great suggestions. The lady even check-in with me afterward to ensure that I like their suggestions. They started from a food truck to now serving great meals in a restaurant. If you're into Gyros Town, you better be great at parking. Not only the strip has limited parking space, but the space to park or back out is a nightmare. So good luck during busy hours! read more

YES, It's THAT GOOD!!! I kept seeing adds for this place on my Facebook and Instagram accounts. The "commercial" pictures looked amazing. I did not expect the displays to look even better in person!! Wow! My plate looked so pretty!! The food is beyond amazing, as is the service. I really appreciate everything they are doing here. I will be back for repeat business!! read more

Chicken Shawarma plate. Our family was looking for a late dinner option and stumbled across Gyrostown. Wow. What a find! Food and service was great. I highly recommend. We will be back! read more
It's always nice to go to the physical location of the store and see what the restaurant looks like, but yesterday's cold/snowy weather discouraged me from doing so. Hence the delivered food and it arrived just in time for my dinner. Appetizer Sampler Plate - The portion was large, I mean, it was HUGE might be more accurately describe it. Hummus and baba ghanoush and garlic dip were generously placed in the container. Two pieces of falafels and one piece of grape leave were gently placed on top of the dips. The smokey taste from the baba ghanoush was everywhere in the whole container and it enhanced the whole experience even as a takeout/delivery. Now, when it comes to the green bean salad, it tasted fine but it appears that they used canned green beans? To be frank, this is my second experience for this type of cuisine (the first one was with a different restaurant just to clarify) where the establishment used canned green beans for their green bean salad. Well, I understand the cost of groceries that has been skyrocketing in this country, but it kind of diminishes the whole authenticity of the food/cuisine. Just wanted to mention it. Oh, I forgot to mention; the bed of saffron rice should not escape my attention. The rice was well cooked with right amount of oil. It surely enhanced the look of the whole dish. Baklava - This was a bit strange. Didn't taste bad but the sweetness you'd expect in any baklavas was very slight (which I kind of liked because I don't like overly sweet stuff.) The portion was a bit small for the price. And the overall appearance wasn't anything like other baklavas I've eaten in the past. Also, the picture on the menu was a bit deceiving. It shows two of them with the price of $3.95 so I completely thought I'd get two with that price. Overall, I was pretty satisfied with everything I got in my order. The whole food preparation and delivery time was within a reasonable range despite the peak dinner hours, I will definitely order from this place again. read more

Prices are typical. Our food was tasty and service was friendly, though there was no return to refill drinks or check up on customers. Ambiance was cold, literally, It was 35 degrees out and the front door was open for some reason. Someone eventually closed it. Over all I was satisfied. I do go back from time to time. read more
