A hidden gem! This place is off the beaten path, but my husband ALWAYS wants to try gyro and Greek places ... this small but modern restaurant is awesome. Their family-run atmosphere and homemade noms are definitely worth checking out. We tried a little of everything and had tons of leftovers! Our daughter loved the soup, and she very much enjoyed the gyro meat. Their service is excellent, being friendly and warm, even though we were the only customers at the time. Bringing the food to our table, chatting with us about the food, and checking in on us halfway to make sure we were good. Thanks to this great family-run restaurant for an excellent meal and great vibes! read more

Had an itching for a gyro salad for lunch and for some daft reason,lentil soup (only 88 degrees).Temperature inside wasn't much cooler,to my partners chagrin.The soup was disappointing.Lacked the flavour of say,an Indian lentil soup.But the salad!No problem.Generous portion of lamb/beef gyro meet and fresh lettuce,tomato,cucumber etc.Grape leaves were also very good.This is a small cafe with maybe eight tables.A lot of the business is takeaway. No alcohol,just soft drinks.I've been coming here for years...definitely one of the best Mediterranean style food establishments in the area.Just a little language barrier with the staff but they were genuinely keen to know if we enjoyed our meal,which is a nice touch. read more

Food: 3/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 3/5 So this place was just ok, as far as Greek food goes this was a different kind of Greek food, a little bit heavier on the spices, and not as "light" as were used to. That being said, I had the grilled chicken dinner shown below, husband had the gyro meat dinner, kids had the beef kebabs. Unanimously all the flavors and meals were "just ok". The service was slow but pleasant, and the restaurant itself is a little rundown, which is not a bad thing but in this case it could use a little update. read more

Cane here for lunch with my wife. We had beef and lamb gyros with Greek fries and regular fries. Gyros were spot on. Great flavor the wife really loved the Greek fries. The service was very good. The young man that greeted us was very friendly. It's a nice little place the walls are painted with what I'm thinking is a Greek village scene. Very clean and the music really set the vibe just right. read more

A secret star in UP. Great Greek cuisine and right smack in the middle of where most of us pass daily. A must stop.

I keep wanting to try other things but the chicken shawarma is so delicious I just keep going back for it! The pickles, the garlic sauce, the spices, all drool worthy. I did have the shawarma plate once and that is amazing as well; I'm normally not a rice fan but love Narrows Gyros rice. And the hummus is wonderful! read more

Wow oh wow this was so amazing it felt like a mother's love cooked it Such a generous helping, enough salad to go with every bite! Delicious vinaigrette salad dressing too. I also love the 8 olives that came with my plate, a good palette refresher. Not pictured is the gyro which was so amazing, the best gyro me and my fiancé ever tried! I love all the seasoning and the sauce that came with the kubeh paired together really well; like a mild oil and balsamic flavor almost. The seasoning on the fries, the plating, the desert section, the atmosphere, the service, all so divine. Definitely try this spot out! read more

We've been regular takeout customers here for about 4 years now. It's almost always been the Greek salad with gyro meat. Tonight was likely the last time we order from Narrows Gyro. The salad was half the size of normal. Mine was missing olives. There was also a new flavor, and by the time we were a few bites in, we realized they'd been doused with lemon juice. There was more than a tablespoon left in the bottom of the container for each of us when we finished. A salad that normally leaves us struggling to finish left us both unsatisfied. It had half the meat it normally did, but also, there was barely any lettuce! On a salad!? Lettuce is cheap. It probably would have helped to fill us up more. The salad used to be a good value for $16. Now it's severely over-priced. It's about an $8 salad. As restaurants and businesses continue to raise prices and decrease quality, we just give those things up. As it is, we only order takeout 1-2 times a month. This used to be a place we could rely on - reasonably healthy and a good value. Now I wouldn't trust that anything on their menu would be worth the price. It's unfortunate. read more

They told us to order at the kiosk, but it was $2 more for what we wanted, so the counter person let us order from him. He was very nice and accommodating. The food here is more Middle Eastern than Greek. The flavors/seasonings reflected the Middle Eastern food much more so than Greek. read more

Got beef shawarma plate. That's the worst plate I ever got from this place. Beef was hard to chew. No salad dressing. Rice had no flavor. $20 wasn't worth it ! read more

Ordered delivery and the beef shawarma wrap I ordered had olives with the pits still in them -- no notes or warnings, nearly cracked a tooth. Got "Salaam Cola" instead of the Pepsi I ordered, and instead of 7-up got some generic lemonade. Pita ordered as a side was cold. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place. Really unimpressed with the quality and lack of care from this place. read more

Amazing! This is our new weekend habit! Just amazing! We would drive down from Seattle just to get their falafal sandwiches and Greek fries.

I love the shawarma sandwiches! If I want leftovers I'll order the shawarma plate. The grape leaves are good too. You might have to wait a bit because the food is cooked when you order it. Keep that in mind and bring your patience in exchange for really good food! read more

Narrows Gyro - Beef Shawarma 10/10! chefs kiss - Mediterranean Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

After a long 12 hour shift, I was craving some Greek food, you know a big plate with everything, and pita bread. I usually go to a place about a block from here but the reviews looked good I figured hey let's try it. I order two of the most expensive plates on the menu, two beef kebob plates. They come with rice, beef kebob, salad, and HUMMUS. Much to my surprise when I get home is that there was no pita anywhere. I called them back, but they told me the kebob plate does not include pita and they're separate. Well buddy, you gave me hummus and nothing to dip it with... and did not tell me that pita was NOT included. I am tired of restaurants nickel and diming us over cheap bread. Buddy, give me the pita. I hope you enjoy saving your .25 cents, because I will not be coming back, I will continue to go to the Greek place a block away that not only has great food, they provide you with a lot of pita bread with their kebob plates. read more

For me, the tastiest Greek food I've had anywhere! And I have been to Greek food restaurants in more than WA state. The pricing is reasonable too. Their dining room was clean enough, but mainly, in the evening, I saw plenty of take-out happening. Our service was good. These guys know how to prepare great Greek food. I'd go back. read more

The owner was very kind and friendly. Nice family owned restaurant I really enjoyed the baklava the honey on it was a nice touch. The chicken was a little dry But the gyro bread was so good! If I could Just buy the wraps I would! read more

Small restaurant with about 6 tables with an Arabic TV station playing. The menu is on the wall and you order at the counter. We arrived at 2pm on a Sunday and were the only customers. I ordered the gyro salad and wife ordered just the gyro sandwich. If you want soda, it's Shasta in a can. Our food arrived promptly. The salad was HUGE! Definitely share this one. Must be 1/2 pound of meat. Fresh salad fix'ns and a nice tzatziki sauce. Wifey says the Gyro was very good too. If you are jonezin' for gyro, this is the spot. read more

Great food, huge portions! Love the gyros and the hummus! The older gentleman (owner?) is awesome.

Ordered the chicken shawarma wrap and enjoyed it! Chicken was bursting with flavor. The only thing is I wished the portion was slightly bigger for the price. It's a small, casual, and cozy atmosphere, which I loved! Service was great! read more

new owers since feb 2025. food is no longer hot enough to survive a 10 minute drive home. Spices seem to have disappeared. Tsaztiki sauce tastes like yogurt, but should have soe cucumber and garlic in the recipe. NO longer my choice for once a week gyro. They don't seem to follow directions for customizations like NO ONIONS. It is haphazard. read more

Heard about this place from someone on the North slope Digest. We were galavanting around and decided to give them a try. He had a gyro salad with extra meat. Cause that's the kind a guy he is!! It was defiantly plenty. We could have shared that!!! Then I had taziki and pita. Wow Did that look delicious!! Look at my pix. They were friendly and fast. Also Halal style gyro meat!! Super delish!! He is looking forward to opening soon. So give them a try ! read more

Not sure what happened here. Food used to be the best thing ever, absolute go to spot. This time my food was so oily it fell apart when I picked it up. Food was dry and tasteless. The quality and flavor is not even close as to what it was before. Will never come back again. So sad. read more

Indoor seating is limited but this place mostly does take out. Food is fresh and delicious, my husband won't eat anyone else's gyros.

This place has to be owned by a middle eastern cook. Tacoma lacks in middle eastern food. This place is a gem. This is actual middle eastern food, not some greasy copy cat food. This is genuine Arab/North African fast food. read more

I don't know what happened. Maybe the new management has made the food markedly worse. My gyro meat was dry and cold, the rice was crunchy, and the portions were way smaller. I even ordered extra meat and got a small bits of meat. It's a shame this favorite has become so bad. read more
