    Feta fries
    Cody P.

    The atmosphere was welcoming! The food was the best! My gyro was delicious & filling. I felt the food was healthy. The place was clean. Nicely prepared. Great food! I strongly recommend. Thank you!

    Chicken shawarma. A bit messy
    Marcus S.

    I love divey looking spots. Too often they have the best food. Unfortunately, for Mr. Gyros both look, and food are both average. I pass here daily and after a late shift I didn't want to have to wait long for food, so I used it as an excuse to try Mr. Gyros. As mentioned, you step inside and the ambience is much to be desired. The menu is like on poster board and the whole place just could use a remodel. I went with but of course the chicken shawarma, just the shawarma, no combo and somehow that equaled out to if I just got the combo. So right there that was lame. It wasn't very hot considering I got takeout so that wasn't good. The shawarma itself was just average. Didn't hold together well into each bite and I'll admit it's fairly well loaded with fixins and had decent Tzatziki flavor; it just doesn't measure up that well compared to other Shawarma I've had, like at all. Another Shawarma place opened recently literally a block away and now I see why - they're better and probably know it. It's so weird to me because they have, their little "People love us on Yelp" sticker and an award from Yelp as one of the best places in Seattle to Eat from the 2010's. I just don't see it. I don't recommend.

    Amazing Greek food and one of the only places opened late night! The gyro is delicious with the Taziki sauce being the star! Ample seating area

    Lamb Gyro Sandwich Combo
    Shelby S.

    Love that it's open late, which makes a tasty after drinking/bar hopping meal. Staff are friendly and efficient. I ordered the lamb gyro combo which comes with fries and a drink. The fries were made to order and topped with some feta. Definitely a filling and tasty meal.

    Combo Plate
    Sanjna S.

    We got the combo plate and the chicken shawarma sandwich for takeout! Combo plate - The beef and lamb tasted really good but wasn't too big of a fan of the chicken 3/5 Chicken shawarma - cooked really well and def hit the spot 5/5 This is a great place to grab a big meal for take out, wasn't really a place to sit down and eat. The staff was really friendly and they gave us the food really quickly, which we appreciate! We'd come again for the chicken shawarma but not the combo plate!

    Lamb Shwarma Salad + Extra Meat.
    Ryan C.

    I've been eating here for years. Best thing on the menu? Lamb Shwarma Salad. NOM NOM NOM!!

    Where's the meat?

    $15 for gyro with barely any meat? All veggies. Also, the people there are rude and hung up on me when I was trying to ask a clarifying question. His rational was he's busy to justify it. When did gyro stop having tzatziki sauce? That's what makes it a gyro. Mine came with little garlic sauce? That's there way to upsell you on sauce. Pro tip: when ordering extra sauce that should have already been in the sandwich in the first place ask for it on the side. Otherwise they drench the living crap out of it and the ratio is all off. But heck they want to show you paid for it lol. Go U district. Aladdin way cheaper and you can actually taste meat. Mucho gracias will not be back senior rude mf

    Chicken Shawarma Salad
    Maggie W.

    The chicken shawarma is SUPER flavorful! I personally enjoy the salad- it's got cucumbers, tomatoes, pepperonis, onions, feta cheese, olives, delicious chicken, and Tzatziki sauce, all the delicious fixings and a vinaigrette sauce over it! So good! My boyfriend enjoys the same but sandwich style. The workers were super friendly and restaurant was clean. We normally go to the Wallingford location but they were already closed (8:30pm Saturday), called the Ballard location and luckily they were open til 2am Saturday. I think these hours should get updated on Yelp to avoid confusion.

    Pita
    Katie L.

    I haven't had Mediterranean food in forever so I decided to get take out for me and the boyfriend the other day. We ordered the gyro plate and chicken shawarma plate. Both the lamb and chicken meat were decent -- good but standard quality. The sauce was a bit thick, more like a dip consistency than a sauce, but still tasty. The thing that I thought was odd was that the pita bread came in the store-bought plastic bag as if they were the last two pieces in the bag and the restaurant couldn't be bothered to take them out. I don't know if it's usually like this but it came off as lazy to me. The bread was also cold. But overall, this was a good satisfying meal.

    We had an unpleasant experience with the host today. When my boyfriend and I arrived, we asked for…read morea table for 2 and were told it would be ~ 10 minute wait. The host asked us to wait outside and said she would come get us when our table was ready. A family who was already waiting outside was called in shortly after, and we continued waiting. We saw several parties leave and many people come in and get seated right away, so we assumed they had reservations. After waiting about 25 minutes, we went back inside to check on our table. The host told us that we "didn't leave a phone number," even though we were never asked for one and were told to wait outside until she comes get us. Instead of acknowledging the mistake, she complimented my shirt mid-conversation, which felt like she was trying to brush it off. The entire time we were outside, we were the only people waiting, and we even saw her setting up the outside seating as the restaurant got busier. She never once checked in with us or said anything. The food was good, and our service once we were seated was great. Unfortunately, our first interaction with the host left a bad first impression and took away from the overall experience. That's why we're taking off two stars.

I arrived 20 minutes before opening and was first in line. One friend joined me 10 minutes later. At 5pm it was just the two of us, so I asked for a table for 4 and explained that I'd happily order food and drinks for everyone immediately, even though the rest of the group was still fighting the weekday traffic. The hostess refused, so we stepped aside. 2 minutes later our 3rd friend arrived. I asked the group behind us if they minded us getting back in line. They laughed and said it was no problem because they had just had their 3rd person arrive as well. When I got back in line, the hostess deliberately skipped over me and called the next group instead. After seating them, I stopped her and asked for a table for 3. She asked if it would "really" be just 3. At that point I honestly didn't know. Our 4th friend was driving from Everett and had texted that she was stuck in standstill traffic. I said yes, seat the 3 of us. The hostess told us to wait while she seated yet another group, taking the last indoor table. We were then placed outside on a hot day. Despite how the evening started, I did exactly what I'd said I would. We ordered dinner for the entire group, including 2 bottles of wine to avoid inconveniencing them with making drinks. Then, incredibly, the hostess came back to our table and removed the 4th chair to make absolutely sure our last friend couldn't join us if she arrived. It felt petty, unnecessary, and frankly embarrassing. What should have been a joyful reunion became a stressful experience because of one person's rigid and unwelcoming attitude. The food was equally inconsistent. The labneh was extremely sour and came with cold, slightly stale pita. The squid & lamb were overly salty. The kohlrabi with peaches was so aggressively smoky that we left almost the entire dish untouched. The mushrooms were fine. The grilled pork was excellent and easily the highlight of the meal. The cod was just okay, and the desserts were average. We spent ~$500 for the meal. People don't spend this kind of money just for the food. The price reflects the entire experience, and that's where this restaurant failed. The service felt cold, impersonal, and overly focused on rules instead of hospitality. Rather than making guests feel welcome, the hostess made us feel like a problem she had to manage. I've had warmer, friendlier service at fast food restaurants. I won't be returning, and I took the time to write this review because no meal, especially one marking such a meaningful reunion, should be overshadowed by such an unnecessarily unpleasant welcome.

I went on a gorgeous…read moreSaturday just after 12PM and there was no line, but it looked like they were packing some take out orders. The signature saj bread is cooked fresh on a hot stone and is almost like a Middle Eastern flour tortilla with the way it's super thin and satisfyingly chewy bite. The only seating options are a few large benches on the sidewalk, but there's a poster saying you're welcome to sit at the neighboring bar which opens in the late afternoon provided you purchase a drink as well. Ended up sampling 3 of their wrap options and the Zaatar Wrap was deliciously nutty and fragrant, but texturally there was so many herbs that the center ate a little dry. The Lahme Khuruf (Lamb) was my favorite by far with super juicy ground meat with some tang from the labneh, sweetness, freshness from the tomato, and texture from the pine nuts. Absolute home run on this one! The Awarma and Cheese was a close second, but personally, the flavor profile was just a little less interesting than the lamb. Tip: grab some extra napkins as the wraps can fall apart a bit at the end!

I got a build-my-own saj wrap with the mushroom base saj $6, sumac chicken $7, tomato $1.5, cucumber $1.5, pickled turnip $1, and a side of hot sauce $2. The saj bread itself tasted good, but got soaked through by the juice of the chicken and became very soggy. We walked to a park 10 minutes away to eat the wraps and the wraps were bending. The ingredients are fresh but nothing particularly stood out. I didn't quite taste the mushroom on the wrap, and on top of that, I got charged $2 for the hot sauce, but never tasted it in the wrap or found it on the side. My partner got the falafel saj wrap which was overall ddcent, but he also found the saj bread quite soggy, yet the falafels were on the dry side.
