This place is nothing fancy, but has a nice local diner feel to it. Delicious gyro, good fries, decent hamburger(previously frozen, I'm sure) but quite tasty! My family of five was very satisfied!! Nuggets and dogs for the kiddos. read more

I ordered the hotdog special with the onion rings and root beer. The hotdog was great the chili is like a homemade ground beef like how chili is supposed to be like. The onion rings were cooked to perfection crispy and great!!! read more

We just stopped here on the way back to Mass from Lancaster and it was the best decision. We needed a place with outdoor seating for the new puppy we had with us, and the staff was so kind and welcoming. I asked if they could put the Caesar salad in a wrap (which wasn't on the menu), and they did it without hesitation and it was AMAZING. French fries were great too and my friend raved about his cheeseburger. Simple but delicious! It's on a busy intersection so sitting outside wasn't as peaceful as it could have been, but that's not their fault. So happy to find this gem by chance and we will definitely be back! Absolutely worth the stop. read more

This place is really interesting. It looks really cute and I would generally drive past it right off of the exit but it had good reviews. My friends and I stopped there, it was great food, pretty inexpensive and easy to eat in the car. It's a traditional deli but I wish they actually had a drive through window because that would have made my life easier. We had a variety of different foods, I think had the chicken gyro, it was good. read more

Delicious food fast. Inexpensive. Friendly. Wide variety of food. My fifth check-in here. Don't judge this book by its cover. Trust the 4.5 star rating. read more

Pretty good gyros. The meat was cooked well and had great flavor. A little different from the gyros I am used to from the west coast but different in this case was good. The service was friendly, and the food was out pretty quickly. Only major disappointment was the fries. They were clearly frozen fries, and not even the best frozen fries out there. I could have made better frozen ones from out of a bag at home in my oven. That being said, I would stop by here again for some quick take out if I was in the area. read more

So clean! Great place to grab a quick sandwich shop bite. Located at the exit of 78 with parking I. The back and plenty of indoor seating. Enjoyed my vegetable gyro (right, I know no meat). Tzatziki is garlicky but good. Dan had the chicken gyro and enjoyed. Somehow we made it out without ice cream... read more

First I want to say I've eaten at vassis many many times for the third time I'd gone in to get a large hard ice cream that I'd been handed a very small amount in a cup when questioned the last tim ed they just said that is their portions its ridiculous what they charge for very little I got my money back and will certainly not go back there are many other places to get ice cream maybe farther but worth it I feel its definitely gone downhill read more

This place is about the atmosphere and the experience more than the food. Don't get me wrong, the food is pretty good. Tasty burgers, good gyros, good cheesesteaks. Solid food all around. Always very hot too. I always burn my mouth on the first bite. Sit out at the benches out front and watch the idiots drive! That's the best part. I used to ride my bicycle to Vassi's so I could burn off some of the calories I was about to consume. read more

Always passed by it, never tried it. Finally decided to give it a shot. This feels like your typical high school hangout, inside could use a little remodeling but I understand its been open since the 50s. Ordered the NY gyro and pierogis. Both were pretty good but I wasn't blown away. Maybe its because Waffle House is next door and we know how awesome that is, but Ill have to try more stuff next visit. read more

Right off of 78, literally at the end of the exit ramp. Perfect for getting quickly and getting back on the road. Had the gyro (on recommendation of other Yelp reviews) and was not disappointed - very good (fries were good as well). Picnic tables in case you wanted to eat there. read more

Big, juicy burgers, crispy fries, and a chocolate malt shake hit the spot for dinner on a warm summer night. The place was already hopping with people quickly walking ice cream cones to cars. We ordered and had super fast and friendly service, and a small error was cheerfully corrected. We're just in town for a few days but hope to come back next time we're here! read more

Our Youth Group visited Vassi's last week and we wanted to brag on your restaurant a little bit. The people we met working at Vassi's were awesome, but Kayden was a rockstar! She met our group outside and offered to sanitize the picnic benches even in January's chilly temperatures. She went out of her way to serve with a smile. The fries were epic and the burgers were even better. Nothing like a strawberry milkshake to wash down some pierogies and onion rings. Plenty of ketchup and sides with napkins all around...fast service, fresh food, good vibes only. I guess we're trying to say that we loved our Vassi's experience! read more

I've eaten here at least three times in the last 6 months. I normally order a gyro with fries and the sandwich has always been outstanding. Last time I went I ordered a gyro and then pick up some hot dogs for the kids with chili sauce. I normally really enjoy hot dogs and they are a local favorite in Lehigh Valley. I must say that the hot dogs here do not compare to many of the local favorites that we have all come to enjoy. Gyro 4 stars Hot dog 2 stars read more

Spotted this place on Yelp during a trip to NC. Ate outdoors at the picnic tables with our dog. We had a garden salad with chicken and a Caesar salad with chicken. Both were good and the portions were generous. The only reason for three stars instead of four is that it's a pretty basic place at a busy interaction and the restrooms could use some attention. read more

Great cheesesteaks. I come here every time I go to with Wind Creek and it never disappoints. The fries are good and they get my order right every time. read more

What a joke. Sliders called burgers. Order takers that don't pay attention when taking your order. Dirty, little, overpriced corner spot. While in the area we decided to stop for lunch at a well rated drive-in that is really not a drive in at all. Ordering went well even though the cashier was unfamiliar with the menu. 30 dollars and 45 minutes later we had to go to the counter to look for our food and found it in a bag behind the counter. I clearly told the cashier when ordering that we would be dining in and eating outside, now we're outside dining in the car with cold, bagged food. Thanks! read more

First time here I'm no expert in a steak sandwich but I'm from the New Orleans area and I like to believe I know good food, this place passes my test. Great service great steak sandwich. read more

Ice cream classic! Soft serve or Hershey's. Easiest on/off rt 78. Outdoor seating available.

This place was great! Went with my family during a long drive from Virginia to LI and wasn't sure where to eat but saw the reviews here were so good. My bro and i had the NY gyro which was amazing with plenty of tziki sauce. My sister had the cheeseburger and my dad got the cheesesteak which were both delicious. My mom had a chicken pita which she loved. Owner was very nice when we told him how great the food was! read more

As a musician from Missouri, this was my second visit to Vassi's in a few years time and it is just as excellent as the first time. Mighty fine gyro and pierogies! read more

Great cheese burgers with quick service. They advertise using no-cholesterol oil which is great. The ice cream is also a great add as there are not many places nearby which offer it. read more

I came here one Saturday night probably 15 minutes to closing time and I wanted to get some ice cream. I asked to only try one flavor and chose it. It was a very generous serving of cookie dough mixed with caramel (cant remember the name) it was sooo great and I definitely want to come back again for it. However, the staff's friendliness could definitely improve. I will spare details but I just wished to be treated with more respect as a paying customer. You guys would be a GREAT restaurant if you would focus more on the customer service aspect. I had been here once before with my mother and we received alot of attitude when we came back to the counter to tell that we did not receive the appropriate amount of change. read more

I was so amazed by the food, I ordered a regular house salad and wasn't really expecting much. It was a decent price for a salad, and was really blown away. There was so much flavor I was really surprised. I hadn't tipped when I initially purchased my food and I walked back up to a few dollars in the tip jar, thinking this is the least I could do for this place, then remembered I could write a review and was so happy to comment read more

Went to try gyro after reading positive reviews. If you ever had a real gyro than you'll know this is not it. It is too greasy. I doubt it is even cooked the rotisserie style. I would call this a "fast food" gyro. The place is clean. read more

went here today on the way back from the lehigh valley mall. great stop. had a dog and two cheeseburgers witrh a coke, 8 bucks. alright folks who like to read when i create absurd reviews this is time to pay closer attention: i am sitting here half-stocked because thinking about this place got me perkalating. Everything was grand. i would eat that hot dog and chili sauce from between an old man's hot hairy tits. It was damn good. Not Toby's or Charlie's (name dropage) level but a good dog all around. The burgers were the best in the area, next time i go i am getting that cheddar and bacon burger with fries, it looked so good. go here, dont be bothered about your high cholesterol fat boy this little gem will at least, if nothing else, get you super rock hard before your heart explodes. read more

Absolutely love this classic drive-in diner. Best milkshakes around. Reasonable prices. Friendly service. And conveniently located right off route 78. Check it out! read more

It was my first time coming here today and the experience was great! Great prices and the food was beyond delicious. Their icecream was awesome too! I can't wait to come back! The employees are very nice, helpful and patient. They didn't mind that I brought my dog with me which made it even better! read more

Best Gyros in the Lehigh Valley, love this place. Been eating here for years, never disappointed.

woo vassis good cheesefries and chili dogs. well not really chili dogs, more like a dog with mustard onions and a touch of chili. hot dogs also travel well, get better after sitting in paper for a couple mins. read more

Old fashioned style burgers and shakes at a cheap price-point. Great place.

I can honestly say that this was the best gyro I've had since moving to PA. The staff wax friendly and accommodating. Bonus for it being right off the highway and on our way home from the beach (very important when you have two cats in the car)! All in all a great place to stop. read more

I love their gyros! Never liked them before but i fell in love with them in this place. The cheesesteak and cheese fries are awesome as well. read more

Have eaten at Vassi's many times through the years. Food is very good. Shakes are great. Gyros are fresh and my favorite! I am stuck on the Gyro's, but I also remember from years ago that their hot dogs were excellent too. Stop by I am pretty sure you will not be disappointed read more

Pretty damn good gyros. That's basically the only thing I've had here but they're real good. A good alternative to Johnny's on a Sunday (since Johnny's isn't open on Sundays). Definitely check it out! read more

Our go to spot after a good hike in the Lehigh Valley. Great dogs, shakes and fries. No more needs to be said.

Amazing place Food is terrific and so is the staff I love the burgers here and milkshakes this place is amazing i would recommend it to everyone. read more

I love this place. Such great hot dogs and french fries. Great place to come when the weather is nice, so you can sit outside. Great ice cream as well. read more

Best Vanilla Milk Shake around, great gyros... they make a great combo.

The burgers are really good! Fresh local beef. Everybody I've eaten there with has liked the food - no complaints! Prices are reasonable.
