Always a good place to grab some middle eastern food. We had the grips wrap and the Greek salad with lamb gyros on top. They were both tasty but the gyros was on the drier side. Not as juicy as I expected. The staff is great, efficient and serve the meals very fast. read more

This is my second time at Yiassoo and they have been so consistent on the food quality and taste. It's absolutely amazing and I only have high reviews for this place. It's family owned and the brothers are always in to help and serve customers. I got the gyro sandwich and loukoumades. I recommend both if it's your first time. The sandwich comes in a pita wrap and is loaded with gyro, tomatoes, onion and their white sauce. You can grab a bottle on the counter along with some hot sauces to eat with your food. I really like the garlicky sauce they have. It's super flavorful. The loukoumades is a 100% must try. They're so crispy but also pillowy and not overly sweet. It's definitely a treat. There are plenty of seats and tables. They also have a self serve fountain machine which you can get water from. After you dine-in, they have a cart near the machine to place your dishes and cups. read more

My new favorite gyro place ordered on door dash, ate there with my daughter and today I am doing take out. I always get the super gyro plate which I think is reasonably priced for the amount of food you're getting. The super gyro plate is a good portion and it comes with your choice of rice or fries which both are good and a salad. This is a real gem and service has been good every time I've been. read more

The boss even came over to talk and gave his condolences. The food came out quickly and the portion was great, it filled the plate. The food tasted amazing.

We ordered a Yiassoo veggie plate. It came with a Mediterranean salad, spanakopita, dolmos, hummus, falafel and pita bread. I liked the falafel, crisp and tasty. But I was not a great fan of the others. Hummus lacked flavor. Spanakopita was a little too cheesy for my liking. This place looked like a great place for meat lovers with only 2 veggie menu items which didn't turn out to be not that great. read more

Always a 5. This place is super consistent The fries that came w the gyros plate were freshly fried and super crispy. It was the best! They had a nice crunch and crisp to them The gyros always hits the spot and is a large enough portion that just the gyros sandwich is usually enough to fill you up The white and red sauce are what makes this place a common go to. But u do usually have to ask for it they do t always put it in the bag to go or give it to you Overall they give a lot of meat in the sandwhich and the pita bread always feels fresh and has a nice chew to it.

Super casual and quick Greek restaurant. I came here to dine in during lunch hours and they were fairly quick despite the large parties of nearby employees dining in during their lunch break. I ordered the chicken souvlaki plate with rice and had a side order of Greek fries. The chicken was a little dry but still delicious regardless with their white sauce bottle (kept at the counter). Greek fries were also good, but I'll probably go for regular fries next time since I don't really care for the feta. I'll probably try the 1/2 chicken plate next time. Apparently the sauce really makes a different so I'll try the different bottles at the counter next time too! read more

I ordered gyros plate, lamb souvlaki plate and a side calamari, total $45. Everything is flavorful but not salty which is awesome! I hope the lamb could be a little bit softer so easier to chew, it's too chewy right now. There's a big parking lot and not too busy, I came here on Saturday at 6pm. read more

Good food & good portions! For $15.25, my falafel plate lasted me 2 meals. I had a falafel sandwich (which was huge!), fries, and Greek salad on the side. I took it to go and they had the salad in a separate container with dressing in a tinier container. I took the order to go, so the few minutes of customer service we had was fine and the cashier was friendly. Their pita was sooo good and fluffy. I don't remember how many falafels my sandwich had inside but they were huge! The fries tasted fresh. Next time I'll order some taziki sauce and bread on the side. If you order a plate you can also forgo the sandwich and get slices of pita instead. Falafel is the same price as other meat like gyro and some souvlaki (sp?). read more

COVID take out review Order online store pickup is available Kid was craving for pita bread so we decided to try out a new Greek place. We used to go the Nicks, so naturally we compared. We ordered kid's cheese pita and chicken nuggets, mousaka plate with rice and soup, chicken skewer with fries and Greek salad. First off, cheese pita is clearly an American customized kids menu, nevertheless my kid was very satisfied with the combination while the adults rolled our eyes. As for our food, husband thinks Nick is better as their meat is more tender and softer. I found the mousaka weird as it's not as juicy and saucy as I had in other places. I did find that it had more meat than eggplants. I like the soup more. It was rice with shredded chicken and a bit lemon flavor, which was warm and hearty. The meals have good portions that we couldn't finish in a meal. read more

Wow did this place go down hill. I used to live in Campbell and always loved this place. Have been going here since I was a kid and the original owner ( who was Greek). Order the basic Chicken Souvlaki ( chicken kabob) with rice instead of fries. It comes with small greek salad. All I have to say was everything was so bland. Rice was dry and bland. The pita bread was tough and tasted stale. The tzatziki sauce with it was also bland and had been sitting in the pre-made portion container for a long time. It was gloppy and pasty and was really disgusting and bland. I tasted no greek flavors in the dish. Lemon, garlic, oregano and thyme were all missing. The side salad was also mushy and mostly mushy tomatoes. Been a while since I dumped my meal directly into the trash when I got home (5 mins away) but thats what happened. I could make this 10 times better at home on my grill with some basic spices and some olive oil and a lemon squeeze. Really disappointing. read more

I have been going to this place for over 20 years. During this time I think the ownership has changed but the food has remained pretty damn good. Gyros Sandwich: 5/5. I will say this is probably the best gyros sandwich that I have had anywhere, and I have tried many. The meat is probably the star, which is always cooked just right, but the veggies and sauce are great, and the bread seems about perfect (soft and warm). Greek Salad: 4/5. This too used to be 5/5, but sometime in the last 10 years they changed the salad dressing for the worse--which is really too bad. Fortunately someone told me their secret ingredients many moons ago when I was a regular, and I am still trying to remember to do this some day at home. read more

I had been craving Greek food and thought to try out Yiassoo. I ordered online and thought they closed at 8pm but in fact they only stop taking on line orders at 8. Unfortunately she read me my order and then when I got home I think it was wrong, unless chicken souvlaki add a pita to the order means I get it all in a pita and not on a skewer? The chicken was good, the half chicken was small but good, and my daughter liked her beef souvlaki. The rice was a little bland for me, but moist which says something. Greek fries were nice, just add feta. I've had others made a little more extravagant. I'll try Yiassoo again, though. It was nice enough to give their other dishes a try. read more

We've been long time Yiasso customers and the food has been good. Recently however there seems to be a drop in quality. I normally order the salmon salad and in the past, the salmon is fresh and well cooked. I ordered this about two months ago and the thicker side of the fish was raw. I didn't eat the raw portion but still ended up getting a stomach ache. I chalked that day up to bad luck and gave them another try and though nothing seemed wrong with the fish, I got food poisoning again. Sadly I am not coming back. read more

Don't know if this disclaimer was noted on the menu or anywhere else. Didn't look for it, didn't see it. I am just stating for those that want to know ahead of time. Enjoyable night, I would come back here again.

I had a chance to try food from Barbayani Taverna which is a yummy Mediterranean restaurant with a…read morebeautiful interior. I had the chance to try the following dishes with the family: * Lavraki - this is mediterranean bass and i enjoyed the preparation of the fish. It was fresh and well tasting with a simple flavor * Seafood linguini - this was not bad but pretty much very heavy on tomatoes. Fresh taste but nothing too unique * Chicken souvlaki - this came with some veggies and orzo with succulent pieces of chicken. Overall liked this dish but it was simple and nothing extraordinary Overall, Had a good experience!

THe service here was really nice and the food was fresh. For our order we got: * 6 sampler dips - this was fun to try because there were so many options of dips to try. I really enjoyed the hummus and labneh as well as the other dip that looked like hummus. The pita you could tell was very fresh, but a little smaller in size than what I have seen before * Chicken skewers - this came on a bed of rice with roasted tomatoes and zucchini. There was also a sauce drizzled on top which was nice. This dish I enjoyed the meat. I felt the rice was a little off though and the tomato was a little thicker than it should have been. Overall though enjoyed the company and the time here!

Amazing 10/10, I…read moretried the chicken and beef plate. Both of them solid, there selections of sauces was great too! I recommend the white and spicy sauce. They got the food out fast and my group really enjoyed it. I personally prefer the chicken shawarma. The service was fantastic and it was our first time. They gave us recommendations and the falafels came out fresh. The place is definitely better than the chain places I've been too. It's in a cozy plaza. Definitely my go to spot in the future.

casual mediterranean spot serving big plates…read more i was craving mediterranean food so we checked this place out from their good reviews on yelp. area is a bit sketchy it's near a liquor shop and sports bar. we got a chicken shawarma and achilles chicken plate. they do not skimp out on meat and sides and actually pack your bowl. i really enjoyed their side spreads like hummus and baba ghanouj (roasted eggplant tahini). the melody of flavors worked well together. their falafel was actually heart shaped and one of the best we had. fried right in front of you so it's pipping hot. would come back next time for pick up!

A phenomenal dinner experience with plenty of good food. I visited on a Sunday evening, and it…read morewasn't super busy. The ambiance of the restaurant was incredible: warm, inviting, and romantic. The service was also top-notch: efficient and speedy. We tried the tasting menu, and I'm so glad we did. Every single dish we tried was delicious, and we were able to try a whole range of dishes. The amount of food we got made the price worth it. By the time we were done with the cold and hot appetizers, we were already stuffed. They then brought out the entrees, which were so delicious we kept eating. And the desserts were the perfect finish to an already amazing meal. Special highlights were the manti with garlic yogurt, artichoke with poached shrimp, lamb chops with dill-potato wedges, and the baklava. I highly recommend the tasting menu if you want to try a little bit of everything - the variety in the meal was really enjoyable. I will definitely be visiting again!

The kebap I exchanged was half and half meat and burned bread cubes with yogurt. nothing else. The $65 a plate "lokum" was a couple of thin slice of meat with a scoop of mashed potato. The server did not like my $50 tip, stating 20% minimum gratuity, which came to be $90. After that insult and spending $590, the only thing we enjoyed was the pide. We will not go to any Meyhouse never again.
