I finally got around to reviewing Cairo Gyro & Grill. We love what I would call middle eastern food. This is a small very casual restaurant next to a grocery store. Sit down and order. All the favorite foods like gyros, shawarmas, kababs, plus a lot more. The portions are large and a good price. We get Chicken Shawarma plate with rice and one the best salads we ever had. We add a hummus which is also very good. The other item we get is the Gyro plate with the same sides this is also very good. We share the meal because it is plenty of food. Service is great the owner is usually there and he is very nice and appreciate your business. People also get the food to go it hold up will to take home. read more

Im sorry did not even have a chance to take a picture it was so good. I had the Chicken Shawarma and Greek Salad (that was compliments of the owner) Service was very attentive... food didnt come out too fast but didnt take long. Over great experience and full tummy read more

First and foremost, I'd like to start with the fact that the food was great. I don't have any real complaints about it at all, and I enjoyed all of it. The aesthetic is simple, but very clean and minimally decorated. Intended for casual settings and family friendly. I went with my friend, and we were greeted nicely upon walking in and allowed to sit where we pleased. The owner was also very polite and was sure to make certain that we had everything we needed. Unfortunately, this is where it gets bad. Upon exiting the owner gave me a top for my very refreshing, frozen mint lemonade. As soon as I walked out the door, I slipped on about 2 cups of rice that had been sprinkled right in the center of the walkway to the establishment. Why you ask? Well the waitress thought it was kind to feed the birds directly outside of the restaurant and where patrons walk into the restaurant. I screamed in pain to the point where neighboring businesses came out to check on me as well as the waitress who seated us. My frozen lemonade splattered all over the floor. I took some time to walk around and walk off the pain and burning sensation from my freshly skinned kneecap. I returned back to the establishment, and it was my hope that due to the unfortunate matter of my circumstance, I would be compensated with a new drink. I went to the bathroom to clean my kneecap while my friend requested a new drink for me, as I was walking out the door, I was asked by the waitress was I going to pay for the drink?! I couldn't be more stunned as my knee was throbbing, and I was looking dead in the face of the cause of my problems, the waitress that decided throwing rice out for the birds was better than the safety of the customers was asking me to pay for a THIRD, six dollar frozen mint lemonade. I shook my head and made my way to the counter to pay for essentially her mess up. I promised the owner I'd leave a review and I did just that, but I am highly upset that when she knew she made a mistake she couldn't think at the very least to compensate me for an absolutely preventable situation. If management would like to reach out to make things right, I would happily come back and leave an updated review. read more

Food was fantastic. The service was great. Inas was very friendly and took wonderful care of us.

A friend recommended this place to us. We had tried some of the neighboring Middle Eastern restaurants in the area so we thought we would give it a try. It is officially Egyptian food. It is a hole in the wall located next to a grocery store. It was well decorated and very clean. I had the Chicken Shawarma and my friend had the Lamb Kebab. He it was the tastiest lamb he had had in a while. The Lentil Soup was also delicious. The service was prompt and the owner came out to greet us. He gave as a side of rice to try. It was tasty as well. Give this place a try if you are in the neighborhood. read more

Absolutely love the combo for 2 people. Generous portions with 6 skewers. Unfortunately they ran out of beef skewers so we got 4 ground beef and 2 chicken. I love the ground beef. For our sides, we got lentil soup and rice. Even with three people, we had leftovers. Great place for the budget and the food amount. read more

Came here on Memorial Day when our usual Mediterranean restaurant was closed, and I am so glad we found this spot. The food was incredible. We had the chicken shawarma with salad, rice and mint lemonades. The salad came out first and was perfectly dressed. Very citrusy/vinegary. Absolutely amazing. The chicken was also very good, great seasoning and the garlic dip tied it together nicely. The mint lemonade is incredible. Do not miss out on this. It's absolutely worth every cent. The owner was incredibly friendly and overall it was just a very lovely experience. This may be my new spot even though it's a bit further of a drive. 5 stars all day. read more

I don't drink hot tea much but it was really, really nice. Now go g read more

I have been on a constant hunt for good medi food since moving here. A lot of the local fan favs have been misses. This place came highly recommended so i figured id give it a shot via doordash. I ordered the Chicken Shish Tawook lunch plate with rice and a salad. I really enjoyed it. I liked that the hummus was included and I didnt have to choose it as one of the sides. Very good and CREAMY! Wish the serving of it was bigger, but I honestly loved that it wasnt too much because this lunch plate was just enough. I asked for the pita on the side and they still gave me the pita on the plate plus a pita on the side. The pita is thin and chewy. I really enjoyed the salad, the dressing is so delicious and they gave me a decent portion. The only reason for the 4 stars and not 5, the chicken was so very flavorful, but a little dry. I dipped it in hummus, garlic sauce, and even tossed it in my salad so I didnt really care. Will def try this place again, except ill dine in because I want to try the frozen lemonade ppl keep raving about. read more

If you're looking for authentic Egyptian/Mediterranean food in Arlington, you have to try Cairo Gyro & Grill!! They just opened 2 weeks ago! It's conveniently located right next to Halal Import Food Market (also amazing if you want to grab groceries after you eat). The food here is absolutely delicious -- fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. I've had a lot of Mediterranean food over the years, but this is hands-down some of the best hummus and babaghanoush I've ever tasted. The shawarma, pita, and falafel are packed with flavor, and everything is generously portioned. On top of the food, the service makes this place shine even more. The owner, Ayman, is incredibly welcoming and makes you feel like family from the moment you walk in. You can tell they care about the quality of both the food AND the customer experience. This spot is definitely a new favorite! read more

Update our review. Our first visit was dining in-house. We selected take-out this dining experience since we needed to return home to comfort our puppy that was not feeling well. This restaurant prepares the food after you order, they don't scoop food out of dishes that have been sitting in the kitchen all day. Fresh and delicious is the result. Since this takes a little longer, we fulfilled our plan to shop in the adjacent and connected Hala Import Food Market. Our culinary experience was challenged as we shopped a new environment, not being familiar with the products or language. But it was fun. Returning to the restaurant side, we could see the physical improvements the owner has been making to the dining area. At home we open our well packaged food item. The flavors and presentation were equally pleasing as dining at the restaurant. We selected the Family Feast Combo for Two. Hope to return soon. read more

We've been here three times in one week that's how good it is. The food is consistently delicious. We ordered the family platter for two ($40), which came with six skewers of three different meats served over a generous bed of flavorful rice, plus a large, fresh salad. It also included hummus, baba ganoush, and warm pita bread everything was excellent. The service was a perfect 10/10. Both the server and the chef came out multiple times to check on us, explain the dishes, and make sure we had everything we needed. The atmosphere is friendly, warm, and homey it truly feels like being part of the family. I love this place so much I could honestly eat here all the time. After dinner, the chef was kind enough to bring us a complimentary plate of mahshy, rice-stuffed eggplant and Mexican squash to try, and we absolutely loved it. That thoughtful gesture really captured the heart of this place. I love this restaurant so much I could honestly eat here all the time. read more

I had a fantastic experience at Cairo Gyro Grill and it's easily one of the best spots in Arlington for fresh, flavorful Mediterranean food. From the moment you walk in, the staff are welcoming and genuinely friendly. The service is quick, the restaurant is clean, and the atmosphere feels relaxed and inviting--perfect for a casual lunch or dinner. The food is the real highlight. The gyro meat is perfectly seasoned and tender, the chicken shawarma is juicy and full of flavor, and everything tastes freshly made. The rice is fluffy, the hummus is creamy, and the pita is soft and warm. Portions are generous, so you definitely get great value for the price. The garlic sauce and hot sauce take the dishes to another level. If you're looking for authentic Mediterranean flavors, generous portions, and friendly service, this place is a must-try. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

If you're looking for a spot that absolutely delivers on flavor, freshness, and authenticity--Cairo Gyro & Grill is it. From the first bite, you can tell everything is made with care. The hummus was unbelievably smooth and rich, with that perfect balance of garlic, lemon, and olive oil--easily one of the best I've had. The salad was fresh, crisp, and vibrant, not an afterthought like at most places, but something you actually crave with every bite. And the gyro platter? Incredible. The meat was perfectly seasoned, tender, and cooked just right with that slight crisp on the edges. Paired with warm pita and their sauces, it was the kind of meal you don't rush--you just sit there and enjoy every bite. What really stands out is the consistency and attention to detail. You can tell the owner takes pride in what they're serving, and it shows in every part of the experience. This is the kind of place you find once--and then keep coming back to again and again. Highly recommend. read more
