Been living in San Diego for 20+ years and I have never been here. I don't typically make it a point to dine in touristy places or particularly crowded areas (pandemic times), but the sun was shining and we wanted to get out and ride around the bay. Based on the great and helpful Yelp reviews we gave this place a shot. Repeat customers, a very friendly owner and GREAT food makes this place one that we will purposely drive to again and again. Thanks for having such delicious and fresh food! read more

Decided to eat here after two co workers of mine were talking about it at work since they had it the previous night. The one thing that tempted me were the chili cheese fries since I've been on the hunt for chili cheese fries like National Coney Islands. It didn't end up being as good as it was talked up to be, BUT the gyro was pretty darn good! It's pretty much self serve. They had a waitress, but she was tending every table except for mine and my boyfriends, which was odd. I probably won't go back willingly, but since my boyfriend liked it, I might have to. read more

Kojack's - Chili cheese fries x gyro - Greek Near Me - San Diego, California

A must have when down here! Gyros are amazing! Authentic Greek food by a nice Greek family. Don't forget to try the baklava!

Alright guys you need to go here. I know it seems like a hole in the wall, but OMG is there food amazing. The gyro, the gyro plate, and the Philly cheesesteak are the most flavorful and delicious meals I've had. It's dangerous too because it is just sooooo good. Support the locals as well, the kojacks team and family have a very rich history and run a very welcoming and good hearted family business. You will not be disappointed!! read more

Really enjoyed my gyro here. The owner was friendly even during this difficult time (covid 19) the Tzatziki Was so yummy. It was clearly homemade. I will be returning soon! Efharisto read more

This restaurant is a Mission Beach gem! The food is amazing and the customer service is unbeatable. I have had both their chicken Gyro and beef gyro and both are superb. Today I tried the falafel and dolmas and they were both great!! I super recommend this spot!! read more

Kojack's - Gyro - Greek Near Me - San Diego, California

They serve breakfast tacos, but don't open early enough for breakfast. The posted hours on Yelp are all wrong. Yelp lists the hours as open daily at 7AM until 3 PM. I think I walked by one day and saw them open at 10 AM, but my breakfast taco craving was settled by another storefront down the street a couple of hours earlier. I was really wanting to try one of those weird Gyro breakfast tacos, but I didn't want one outside of breakfast. Anyway, whatever read more

If you are hungry at Mission Beach, this is the place to go. Amazing food at great prices. Love the gyros, Greek salad and finish with a tasty baklava. read more

Kojack's - The gyros are so tasty but this time I tried the Greek salad with gyro meat. It did not disappoint! - Greek Near Me - San Diego, California

Ate here on Wed Apr 22 during the height of the Covids. Beach was empty other than SDPD. Me and another dude were waiting in our cars at 9am for them to open. No photos. Hard to take good lap/food photos. And, it becomes messy as well Still, best Gyros in town. Hands Down. Can't wait to get back and put my elbows down and get into one! Thanks Guys read more

Horrible experience altogether!! First and last time dining in this place. The owner oversold me everything. I paid $15 extra and I had to ask him to take stuff we didn't order out. Food was ordinary. The guy sold me a large soft drink filled with ice and didn't get a refill. Please avoid this place if possible. Just not worthy... read more

Great spot, good prices, damn good food. This is where you wanna grab a bite after a day at the beach. Staff was super friendly and immediately made sure my large party had a clean spot to sit and enjoy their meal. I'd personally recommend a gyro, or falafel, but after sampling a bit of everything, it's all good. read more

This place is no gimmick. It's very close to the beach and across the street from Belmont Park, but is a solid Greek restaurant. These guys know what a gyro is all about. Had the gyro plate and loved every bit of it. Do yourself a favor and check out Kojack's the next time you're at Mission Beach. read more

Terrible practice of not giving back your change because they have none. But when asked for my nearly dollar change, all of sudden they have it. Gonna report this illegal practice to city. It's a shame they take advantage of folks. read more

Good serving size and great customer service. Food had great flavor! The staff made sure to give what I needed with the meal, like spicy sauce. read more

Best gyro in San Diego if you're from Chicago this is Kronos Gyro on a Spit Check out the gyro and eggs amazing read more

Really good gyro sandwich. Everything else sucks. I mean inside the restaurant and around it. Literally the only safe thing to eat in a 5 square mile vicinity. It just so happens to be delicious. You have to get it with the thick onion and tomato slices. You significant other may not appreciate it but your stomach will. read more

Kojack's - Fries with cheese - Greek Near Me - San Diego, California

They're back and just as good as ever! I stopped by today after noticing the doors were open again while riding past on the boardwalk and was quickly reminded of how the gyro here always hits the spot. Simple ingredients with great flavor stuffed inside the perfect pita are what it's all about. I love grabbing one and walking a few steps down to the beach to enjoy it. Don't miss out if you find yourself near Belmont Park or passing through Mission Beach! read more

Clucking amazing the best food to ever exist. word word word word word word word word

Best gyro I have ever had and I have been to Greek spots all across America, this is the one, they changed there hours so they aren't open late which really sucks but hopefully they start staying open till 2am again, I would visit every night read more

Rice was hard (need more water in the crockpot). Meat was teeny pieces and dry (since it was the end of the spic) Hard rice is the worst. Meat I can tolerate with extra yogurt. Super disappointed. 3 stars because the salad was good and the service was okay. I'd give it another try because maybe it was a bad day. read more

BEST Gyros ever! They also know their customers. It's been arouyfor generations. Great San Diego place. We also stop by when we are in the area. read more

Worst Pizza ever . Charged more than the price listed. Didn't try anything else and never coming back. Do not order Pizza. Save it read more

First time at this place during my recent visit to San Diego. I was craving for some Greek food, and a cousin of mine recommended this spot. I ordered a Gyro plate, which came with gyro, pita, salad, and rice. The meal itself was good, but seems like I didn't get enough meat for what I paid for. Maybe it was just my luck that night? I'm not too sure. Although, the others that I was with also complained of the same. Will give it another try the next time I'm in the area and update :) read more

Kojack's - Nom! - Greek Near Me - San Diego, California

I had the gyro sandwich and it was delicious cooks are very polite I definitely recommend this place if you like a good gyro

Gyro, Hot Fries, & Cold Canadian Molson Beer= $12 and worth it ! Free parking across the street in the roller coaster lot for free. Spots all seem to be for compact cars. Look for the Sandbar sign & Kojack's is located right next door. I've run passed this location many times & have never noticed it since it's just one of those hole in the wall places, however, you will be glad to stop in for the Gyro. This is what I like: 1. Hot Fries & Cold Ketchup (in case you are wondering why the ketchup is not sitting on the table). Fries are fresh cut & with a special seasoning that taste like a blend of paprika, salt, pepper, & something secret. 2. Chunks of Gyro meat with pita bread that is Perfectly toasted. Crispy on the outside & not overly drowning in tzatziki sauce, as other chain places do. 3. Very friendly people working there. The guy sweeping the floor even asked me how I liked the beer because I told him I never tried it before. 4. They have high chairs for kids & outside seating. 5. I love the old pictures of the guys working there on the wall. 6. Wheelchair in the women's room ??? It's good to know where u can get one, given my history. What I didn't like: Listening to the tourist come in and order a Philly Cheese Steak, hello, did you not just walk past G@9/!0#^ Br0$ ??? The only 2 other places I have had better Greek is at the Mad Greek on the way to Vegas or in Astoria, NY, but you can not top the location here in Mission Beach where you can walk a few steps & watch the sun setting on the Pacific.

Over the years I have had gyros and other items from Kojack's and always thought the food was good. So, this past weekend I asked them to put together some trays for a small gathering I was having. The food was delicious, very generous portions, and packaged to travel with ease. Mike and his team did a wonderful job of making everything just right and my guests LOVED the Greek buffet. We had gyros, grilled chicken, falafel, greek salad, dolmades, and delicious tzatziki. Everything was so good. And shockingly, the owner called the next day to make sure I was happy! I highly recommend using Kojack's for a party or just when you want a taste of Greece on a pita! Thank you, Kojack's. read more

The food here is overpriced.. like my wallet had just been raped and violated. I ordered the philly cheesesteak and chlli cheese fries. The cheesesteak tasted so good i wanted to get nekkid. The chilli cheese fries however were pretty crappy. The fries seemed undercooked, the chilli tasted suspiciously like canned Hormel chilli, and the cheese was more like gas station nacho cheese sauce rather than actual shredded cheddar cheese. The service could be friendly, depending on who's serving you, and if you order anything to go, make sure you grab any utensils and napkins on your way out cuz it kinda sucks taking a container of chilli cheese fries across the parking lot, thru the little carnival/fair area, past the group of slow walking people that wont get out of the damn way, and back to your car to eat them and then realize that you dont have a fork. read more

Great place! The pictures on the wall, the roller ciaster across the street and the ocean right outside the door. This olace reminds me a bit of the East Coast. Definately has a feeling of being from a place and time where being a Mom and Pop Business that includes the community and flavor from nearby in it's business. Thanks KoJack's! read more

Read below, most people agree...mom & pop, owner Mike there 24/7, his Greek buddy cooks & his wife helps out. His Greek sandwiches & Greek plates very good & healthy, his baklava decent too. Cooks burgers & fish/chips & pizza for the tourists. Clean bathrooms to boot. A gem. read more

I was so disappointed yesterday when my wife and I came down to support this business after seeing them on the news. After ordering our meal which was cheep! We watched the guy who was taking out the trash without washing his hands load our cooked food into the to go bags, if that weren't enough we also watched him lick his fingers to open the bags.. he wasn't wearing a mask or gloves yet everyone else were, and I never saw him wash his hands yet a sink was right next to him. When I pointed this out to the owner and other employee I was told "it was a new bag" I don't believe we'll go back.. Maybe the county needs to visit them.. read more

Food was good. Standard Gyros and souvlaki. Took a very long time to get food. Watching the (un)controlled chaos behind the counter was somewhat entertaining. read more

First all we love the customer service they provide. I am sooooo big about that. Then of course the food is soooo yummy! I'm not from San Diego but when We are there We try to go, always happy with quality of food and quantity they serve. It is worth every dollAr. I ordered food for my birthday and was sooooo happy! All of my family loved it too! I ordered chicken, Greek salad, Taziki , hummus , pita bread( fluffy) , rice, and not to forget the yummy Bakalava ! You can't go wrong with this place, you must try it out. Thank you Kojacks for the amazing food you make and your great service . read more

Eat here with a friend Aug. 25th. We ordered a med pizza called The Works. One med Pepsi and one med Dr. Pepper. Total was $19.88. What we got was a small pizza with pepperoni and green bell peppers. That's it. Certainly not a works pizza. The crust was very thin and tasted like saltine crackers without the salt. And my friends Dr. Pepper was watery. Pass this one up. Not worth the money or the aggravation. read more

Someone was kinda hungry and kojacks was looking pretty good. We only ordered a gyro and a side of french fries. It was hot inside/humid but good thing there was one table left outside. Gyros was pretty good and the pita bread was hot/fresh. Fries was burnt good and yummy! A quick stop for a pretty darn good gyro! read more

This is the go-to place to get a Gyro in Mission Beach. The Gyros and Greek plates are the way to go. If you come here and order Pizza, you are a moron. Glad these guys are back after that terrible fire. Keep cranking out those awesome meals! read more

My #1 stop when visiting San Diego. You won't find mouthwatering Greek like this anywhere else in the city! Also, I can't recall a single visit where the owner wasn't personally working, and he's always very welcoming. I admire how hard they work and it definitely pays off. The pita bread is so delicious and has a lovely crunch to it, their lamb is beautifully seasoned and you can never go wrong with extra tzatziki, it's to die for! HIGHLY recommended and worth every penny!!! read more

Not too bad, one thing I will say is that the salad to me usually tastes like it's been sitting out too long or it is being stored in a place where it's not keeping the right temperature .... either than that the gyro meats them selfs are good, pricey as heck though! read more
