Cheap and delicious, my favorite kind of meal. The place is small. Minimal décor. Seats are close together but the food is awesome. For apps, I tried the hummus (chunkier than usual), falafel, and Greek salad. My fiancée and I split the mixed grill for 2 which obviously had a little bit of everything. All the meats were seasoned perfectly. The fries were so crunchy...I just wish we could have tried the Greek fries. Next time for sure. read more

Great gyros! Portions are generous enough to share. Service is friendly and very courteous. Only downside is parking in this area is terrible. read more

Ordered the Greek Fries Dinner Special w falafel pita. It was very fresh and yummy. The greek fries w grilled feta was cooked to perfection. The falafel was tender, moist and not oily. Very yummy. The pita is freshly made. Hummus was a little bit vinegary so wasn't really my cup of tea. But I highly recommend the falafel and greek fries. Prompt delivery and well packaged! read more

It was bustling on Friday evening. We could smell grilled meat from a block away. We checked in with our groupon and was greeted warmly. The wait was about 10 minutes for a table of two. The appetizers came - hummus and falafel. The falafel was one of the better ones I had, crispy on the outside and garlicky and flavorful inside. The hummus is thick and perfect to go with the falafel. Now the star is the meat platter, HUGE, more than enough for two. Perfect for meat lover: Sausages, chicken, pork, lamb - all seasoned really well with great grill flavor. Service was prompt and efficient. I already got another groupon and can't wait to come back. Ps: They also offer a similar prefix, perhaps $5 more, Groupon menu on site read more

I love this place. Amazing gyro sandwiches. Fast and friendly service. My go to in Astoria.

After driving 35+ miles to go back to the spot that makes my favorite gyro and Greek fries, I tell the guys behind the counter how I used to be a regular customer and how much I was looking forward to bringing some of their delicious food home with me....the employees seemed to catch an attitude for some reason and made me wait 40 mins for "well done" pork, just to get home to find it was all fatty and nasty! Worst meal I've ever had from there and the wait almost made me and my nephew late for our matinee for Beetlejuice! Used to love this place...will never go back!! Bad attitude is worse than one bad meal! read more

We love BZ Grill for Gyros but tonight I wanted a bit more of a dinner-y meal so I got a platter. I got the bifteki platter. It has rice, a splash of lettuce, two bifteki, sliced tomato, and pita. No tzatziki. Everything dry. The bikteki (pictured) has no cheese inside it. Flavor is good, but missing that cheesy-ness. However, the biggest disappointment is that for this amount of food, it was $17. That's absurd. You can get food just as good or better, in larger quantities for way less all over Astoria. At $8 their gyros are higher priced but not unreasonable and they're really good. But I'll never get a platter again. This is really $8-$10 worth of food, MAYBE $11-$12. But not $17. I feel like a fool. read more

BZ Grill - Chicken gyro with sauce on the side and Fresh fries - Greek Near Me - Astoria, New York

I've only been here when I use the Groupon that pthey usually have on going through the year. It's for - 2 appetizers including falafel with hummus, baba ganoush, and pita with both. The main entree is a mixed meat grill and also 2 cups of wine are included. - the ambience is very casual - most items on the menu are relatively inexpensive. Entrees mostly range from $8-$14, the higher priced ones might be closer to $18 - friendly waiters/employees - clean bathrooms/establishment Overall a solid go to Greek joint in Astoria. read more

The lamb and chicken gyro are really yummy! I definitely recommend them! Delivery is pretty fast and the food still warm! read more

I hadn't quite finished asking which sandwich I should order when I was told, firmly, the gyro. I'd say it was good advice, but as good as the meat was, it was bested by everything else about the sandwich, including the crisp pita. So maybe other sandwich is just as good or even better. I'd like to find out. The gyro was good enough to make me want to try dessert, and I had no regrets about the panna cotta. The preserves were perfectly tart. Pay up front. Or don't, and wait for anyone to tell you, and your meal might become quite leisurely. read more

BZ Grill - Gyro Sandwich - Greek Near Me - Astoria, New York

Food is delicious, lunch special is a great deal, and the workers are very kind. Easy and quick to order and nice looking interior.

I am updating my review as I returned this evening with my husband. I wanted him to try the mixed grill fresh from the kitchen. This evening I was a little disappointed. The food was as tasty as the first time BUT was definitely over cooked. The bifteki and sausage were too well done and the falafel balls were over fried. The chef this evening was off his game. read more

Meh, it was just alright nothing special at all. No ice for drinks or a glass with your soda. Ordered the falafel appetizer and it was tiny tiny balls of over cooked on the outside with an undercooked, gooey texture on the inside It came with a very small amount of hummus (also tasteless) and some pita. Didn't seem fresh, wasn't good, At $9 don't waste your $$. The pork gyro lunch special was good and the pork fresh and tasty albeit a tad salty but good. That's the two stars......Aside from the pork gyro, I found the place pricey and in a neighborhood abundant with this kind of food there are definitely better spots with better quality food, portions, and for less $$. If you have a craving for pork gyro and short on time, this place is good for that. If you have the time then try somewhere else. The gyros sandwiches are very skimpy on the meat and the pita wasn't fresh. read more

I was in the neighborhood hungry. Yelped Greek food and I saw this place. Amazing fresh food. I got a Bifteki, It was so good. I love this place. I want to try everything on the menu. Everyone was real nice. I went after lunch so it wasn't too busy. Get the cherry juice its so good. I just wish they had ice. Can't wait to go back. read more

BZ Grill - Greek Near Me - Astoria, New York

BZ Grill is a humble restaurant on a sleepy stretch of Astoria Blvd that serves big, bold flavors. This unassuming little spot serves some of the best gyros around. What sets these guys apart from the competition is the fact that there's no mystery meat here. Everything's carved from a giant, rotating spindle of actual marinated meat. Between the two options of chicken or pork (surprisingly, no lamb!), the winner for me has got to be the roast pork gyro. Each gyro is made with warm, fluffy pita and is absolutely loaded with porky goodness. Every bite of succulent, rich pork has a nice crispy char. Finished with the requisite lettuce, tomato, red onion, and tzatziki, this overstuffed cone of deliciousness will probably require that you pick up a fork before attempting to use your hands. One massive gyro will only set you back about $8.50, and is of a far better quality than your typical street meat cart. Also worth mentioning: if you're in the mood to be a little decadent, definitely go for the Greek fries. Seasoned with oregano and covered in a shower of feta, the fries are baked until the feta browns. So much flavor in every bite! The fries are $6.22 and the serving is enough for two people to enjoy. These days, I typically get my BZ fix through Seamless, and they are always quick. I'm lucky to have this as an option! But even if you don't live here, this gyro is worth a trip. read more

I use to love eating here. It has been a long time since we have eaten here and the other night we took an order to go and we were very disappointed. The chicken gyro .y husband had was drier than usual. The fries were so oily and crumbly as if they were stepped on. Presentation was extremely unappealing. I had the falafel and idk what they changed about it but it was not good and burnt l. Also we use to love their Tzatziki sauce, and it seemed very different this time around and not in a good way. I think were done with BZ, unfortunately. read more

With all the hype around the gyros at BZ grill I've visited twice now to try both the pork and chicken gyro lunch specials and have to say that it truly is one of the best lunch deals in the area. Portions are huge, food is made to order, and the owners are friendly. Maybe I'm just not a gyro person, but I did find the overwhelming amount of meat on the dry side. My expectations were high for this place and can't say that they were met, but I'm sure I'll be back for the value. read more

BZ Grill - Chicken gyro with fries - Greek Near Me - Astoria, New York

Been living in Astoria for 10 years and this is one of the best Gyro spots around. It is authentic, Greek gyro. Everything is always fresh and flavorful. I never do delivery. Every time I go to the restaurant I'm served within less than five minutes. And I can sit down WITHOUT waiter service if I choose. I cannot tell you what the delivery experience is like. The bad reviews surprise me. I think you can't beat it for 9.25. read more

We heard about BZ Grill and wanted to try it out. The wait to receive our food was reasonable. We had take out, so by the time we got home the food was not as fresh but it was still excellent! I had the gyro and the pork was so moist and flavorful. I normally do not like yogurt, but I loved the tzatziki sauce. Even though we had take out, there is places to sit and eat. The place had a really welcome feeling to it. The walk from the N/W station is short, about five minutes. read more

BZ grill was our first stop in NY after landing at LGA. We all ordered sandwiches along with salad and fries for the table. The pork gyro was juicy and well seasoned. The haloumi sandwich was tasty with a slight char on it which balanced well with the sauces on the sandwich. The building is unpretentious with homey decor and the aroma of gyro circulating through the air. Stop by BZ Grill for a solid gyro or pita sandwich in a quiet atmosphere. Bonus points to our server who remembered our complicated order without writing anything down. read more

$61. beet salad and greek salad was delicious. however the haloumi was terribly salty and not edible. 2 chicken souvlaki pita sandwiches with 3 pieces of chicken in each, thumbs down. the taziki sauce was not authentic at all. tastes and look like mayo. not very appetizing and i will not being going back. read more

Ordered for delivery and did not get what we paid for. Gyro sandwich was very good but also very small for the 10 dollars it cost. And 17 dollars for a plate of 3 shish kebabs and 5 fries with some veggies. Food tasted excellent but very small for the price. read more

I would like to give a special thank you to the owner and the team for my wonderful experience. I was craving for authentic quality Greek cuisine. The Greek food you can actually see people cooking in front of you opposed to the pre-cook, hard to chew platters. I came here with an empty belly and left there with a smile. Someone mistakenly placed an item in the salad I was allergic to, something I politely asked to not have on the salad beforehand. Instead of a defensive reaction, the owner apologized and they made a fresh salad and the owner gave me two Greek yogurts on the house. He may have thought it was a small gesture but to me, great customer service should be recognized. Maybe good customer service adds more seasoning to the food because, the falafel with lemon juice and hummus gave me life. The fresh grilled chicken breast (the thick chicken breast, not the small flat ones you can eat in two bites) and the fresh Greek salad was a great selection to a light yet flavorful dinner. read more

Gyros Gyros Gyros! A cozy spot located in Astoria, Queens. All Gyros are Served W/Lettuce, Tomatoes, Onions on Pita Bread with a choice of sauce, either on the gyro or on the side. The Pork & Chicken are both cooked on a twirling spindle giving the outer layer a slight char (yummy), Slicing off chunks of meat per order. The pork is cooked & seasoned perfectly, soft, moist & full of flavor. The pork is definitely the way to go. The chicken is seasoned well, but if it's not smothered in sauce it taste very dry. The Tzatziki Sauce ( yogurt, cucumber & garlic ) the usually white sauce on gyros. The sauce you must try is the BZ Grill Sauce ( home-made mayo-mustard sauce ) it's a little tangy, which gives the gyros a kick! Overall this is a great spot, all ingredients are high quality & fresh, with limited indoor & outdoor seating ... walking distance from Astoria park. Grab a couple of gyros & chill out in Astoria park that's the life.... read more

Oh my god delicious. BZ Grill was the best part of my Sunday afternoon filled with apartment hunting and Ikea. After touring about 20 apartments in a building we weren't interested in, we were frustrated and famished so I used my trusty Yelp app to find some good Greek eats and it did not fail. The space inside BK Grill was small and filled with a few families with young kids. We both took about 5 minutes with the menu - it's not extremely extensive, and ordered the chicken gyro and it was OFF THE CHAIN. Packed with flavor and delicious, juicy chicken. Both dark and light meat but not fatty at all. Cool crisp veggies and delectable white sauce, I highly recommend ordering the chicken gyro. In addition to it's yummyness, it's large, filling and only $5.95. Eat here! It's delicious. read more

Simplicity/Mastery: When a restaurant know what they are good at and does it very well. BZ Grill is straight forward with their food. There is no gimmick to lure you in or deceive you on their quality of the food. The physical appearance of the store front is not an accurate reflection of what is in the inside. It's more of a hidden gem. The curb appeal may deter others, but that only gives you more opportunities to visit. Once inside, you are able to look directly into the kitchen as they prepare your meal. Service is fast. Staff is friendly. The food is simple and delicious. I ordered the lunch special (gyro, fries and a soda for $ 10). I went with the pork gyro. The taste of the pork is well balance- a little juicy, a little crunchy w/ the char, not too much fat, a touch of salt, and just the right amount of flavor that you need to take a second bite. The gyro was neatly arranged- it can get messy at times. Overall, a great place to grab a bite to eat. read more

BZ Grill - Lunch special - Greek Near Me - Astoria, New York

So. Much. Food. It's hard to see how anybody can have less than a 4 star experience here. The missus and I had the mixed grill platter for 2 which is big enough for 3 people and allowed me to sample most of their meats. Their sausages were impressive if not stellar. We started with some hummus, pita and falafel. I thought the hummus was a little dry and the falafel didn't have the super crispy shell to compliment the soft filling - but the flavors were good and they were still enjoyable. The mixed grill platter looked intimidating upon arrival. The portion size was huge and I wasn't sure where to even begin. My favorite was the bifteki gemista, a perfect mix of lean & fat ground beef with cheese stuffing that just exploded with flavors in my mouth. The seftalia, which is a softer Cypriot sausage, had very good flavors too. The harder suasage, the loukaniko, was not bad either, I could taste the fennel even if the meat itself didn't carry as much flavor as the other two. Of the two gyros, the pork was the undisputed winner for me. Some of the thinner slices looked, felt and tasted like bacon on steroids - and that's no bad thing. In comparison, the chicken was pretty bland. We opted for fries with our platter which was perfectly crispy and it also came with pita, yogurt, tzatziki, onions, tomatoes and lettuce. Our Groupon deal made our meal even cheaper than it already was. Although the service was suspect and the decor of the place won't get them on the cover of Food & Wine magazine, the value was unbeatable. I had a full lunch the next day with the left overs and it all tasted great still. FOOD: 4/5 DECOR & AMBIANCE: 3/5 SERVICE: 3/5 VALUE: 5/5 read more

BZ Grill - Mixed Grill - Greek Near Me - Astoria, New York

I've walked by here a few times on the way to the post office and every time I see that juicy ass meat rotating in the window it makes me want to stop in. What's prevented me each time is that darned sign that says "Best Gyros in New York". I'm usually not overly impressed with places that self brag especially when they don't need to. They have great reviews from various news papers and magazines plastered on the wall for third party verification. Well I finally stopped in today and boy was the food good. Be a little wary though, after a night of heavy drinking my taste buds may be slightly skewed. Regardless there's a generous heaping of meat and dressings on your pita should you decide to go with one of the sandwiches. For under $5 this place is worth that little extra walk from the Astoria Blvd Station. PS. If you're headed to the post office this is a great place to stop by first..it'll have you drooling profusely making envelope licking that much easier! read more

This review is more for the service rather than the food. I've had the food from here a few times (and it's great) but I've always done take out and never actually ate at the restaurant. One of the best Greek food in Queens. So when I saw there was a Groupon for this place, I was so excited. The deal was $22 for a falafel appetizer, a hummus and eggplant dip, a mixed grill platter for 2 and 2 glasses of wine or beer. I came here with my family on a Friday night and was seated right away. When our waiter came over, I mentioned that I had a Groupon. He literally sighed and paused before taking our order. We used the Groupon and added a gyro and halloumi appetizer. The food came out pretty quick and it was really tasty. The mixed grill platter could have fed all 4 of us. But after the food came, no one bothered to check on us. I understand this isn't fine dining, but at least come over to see if everything is ok. The waiter was too busy talking to the non Groupon using diners. It even took 20 minutes to get the check. We couldn't get out of there fast enough! The service is awful! What irks me the most is that the waiter looked over to our table to make sure we left a tip. I wish we didn't. I don't understand why a business bothers putting out Groupons if they're going to give attitude about using it. It's a shame that the Groupon is for dine in only, because I would've bought more. I doubt I'll return to dine in again. read more

EDIT: If you pick up your food and also see them not wearing masks, report it to 311 as they are legally required to have workers wearing masks. BEWARE! Improper safety measures. I used to love this spot, but will not be going back anymore. Went to pick up my lunch order today, and you have to walk partially inside to get the bag. That would have been fine if the woman at the counter was wearing a mask. She was not, so I politely asked her if she had one. She immediately responded by rudely saying "why? You are wearing one, so why should I? I'm not going to wear one". She then was super rude to me for the rest of the interaction. I didn't want to stay long near someone being so reckless, so I just grabbed my food and left. Never again. read more

I stumbled upon BZ Grill because another restaurant in the area that I was planning on trying was closed. I drove by while looking for parking and the big sign out front caught my attention. I'm glad I stopped in! The first thing you're hit with is the ambiance. Laid back, no frills, plastic cover over the table cloth but in a charming kind of way type of place. It's very home-y feeling, and I can't knock them for it! They have a great lunch special for $10: chicken or pork gyro, fries, and a drink. I'm more of a lamb gyro guy, but I settled for the pork and was not one bit disappointed. The pita was stuffed to the brim with pork, and it was full of flavor. The fries were my favorite kind -- the double fried crispy ones. So good. The service was very good as well. There was only one waiter attending to a few tables, but he was extremely welcoming and very accommodating. Solid spot! read more
