Have been wanting to try Chicago Gyro for a wile now and today was the big day. All I wanted was a chicken gyro, no more, no less. I walked in and was immediately greeted and called the wrong sex which was super fun, but the lady corrected herself when I left and got it right on my way out when she said goodbye man. (Thumbs up) Got home unwrapped the sami which was still piping hot. When I opened the wrapping the unveiling was not as expected. No trumpets blowing or heavenly music playing, just a crinkle or two from the bag I waded up and set on the table. It was a chicken gyro minus the onions. (I'm not really an onion gal.) It was anticlimactic especially when I bit into the slimy brown lettuce that filled the pita. The chicken meat had the consistency of spam and the taste was nothing to write home about. Along time ago I had the most fantastic gyro in Avondale, AZ and I just knew Chicago gyro was gonna be the bomb diggity. (Said in the great Morgan Freeman's voice) "However, it was not the bomb diggity." Will I go back? Probably not. I hated how excited I was to try this sandwich to only be let down. Overall it wasn't anything to overly fantastic. It was what meh tastes like, and I was out $8.12 Since posting this the owner told me it was a natural thing for the lettuce to turn the way it did. In my life I have had gyros, and other hot meat items with lettuce and never have I had anything look like todays Sami unless it wasn't fresh. That's just me. I'm sure they have great pride in their place and food as stated in their rebuttal. Truth is, my sandwich just wasn't made with love. Sometimes love slips thru the cracks, and the Yelper gets what I got today, insert shoulder shrug. At this point it is what it is. read more

Finally able to check this spot out! We came for lunch and got the Gyro Lunch special. Came out fresh and quick and hot! Loved the option to add feta! Very tasty and great portions for the price. I wish I would have taken a picture but I was too hungry to wait. We will definitely be back! Great customer service too! read more

First of all, they are open, very clean and have social distancing and CDC recommended practices in place. Second, the customer service was excellent. Menu simple and inviting with descriptions and photos. The customer service person was friendly and made some recommendations for my next visit. Well done- it worked. I will be back. Third, Fresh ingredients. THE GYRO WAS DELICIOUS. Ample amount of freshly carved beef and lamb, fresh tomatoes and red onion tucked inside the fresh, fluffy pita, and the tzatziki sauce is phenomenal! I haven't had a gyro this simple but tasty in a long time. The baklava was a shareable size and tasted good. I wouldn't be angry at the chef had they added a little more syrup to sweeten up the dessert. But flaky, crisp and...yeah, fresh! I don't review a lot of places (I should more often), but this place is legit and worth a stellar review. I will be returning for the chicken shawarma! read more

So impressed with the quality of meat, the gyro sandwich was so very good and so were their fries for that matter. It was ready on time for pick up and piping hot. They are a busy business and now I know why. Excellent! read more

Good food and good people clean environment and bathroom very clean and service at it best

Ordered via Grubhub. There are a few gyro places in north Phoenix, but this place was really good. I had a chicken gyro, was filled with a ton of meat. I love how they sent the tziki sauce separately so your pitas didnt get moist Wife ordered the vegetarian platter. Must have been good as evidenced by the empty plate. I look forward to trying it in the restaurant. read more

Went here today with my daughter after many years not visiting. It was as good as ever. Pita bread on point, gyro meat on point and the sauce is thick. Best gyro in Phoenix read more

Chicago Gyros - Any gyro place that has a big ass cup of tzaztiki sauce is doing it RIGHT!! I took to go a gyro plate and it is delicious. - Greek Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This place is always consistent. I've tried other restaurants closer to my home but I keep coming back to this one. It's a bit out of the way for me but worth it. If you're from Chicago, you'll like all of the prints on the wall. They also have a couple of small tv's that usually have a sporting game on. Both the Chicken and Gyro is so good, pita is always fresh and tahini is perfect. Their Greek salad is refreshing, always fresh, crisp greens, fresh grape tomatoes and feta cheese. Their dressing is so good you'll want to drink it. ;) read more

Proportions of the food is on the small side, but it was decent just on the small side!

Food has changed over the years, gotten down poor quality, poor service... will not come back

Great gyros.....enjoy the place.... great food, and very fair prices!

I've been a customer here for 15 years. Best Gyros in Town. Always full of fresh quality meat and crispy fry's. Can't go wrong!

Drove 1/2 hour to get there on a Saturday, only to find restaurant closed. It was 3:30 pm. They had changed their business hours, but didn't update them on the website. Next time, upon arriving, found that 2 of the menu items I had planned to order, were no longer available. Again, they didn't bother to update menu on the website. The fish was overcooked, very dark. Owner was in the kitchen cursing and carrying on like a brute. Never again. read more

My husband and I wanted to try a local spot for dinner. We ordered online and picked it up. Food was ready on time, hot when got it home and really authentic. The food was delicious and we will definitely go back. read more

Delicious and recommend. Mediterranean salad with chicken schwarma and the sauce is recommended

Super yummy food. Very fresh food. Got the gyo salad and chicken pita meal. Meal comes with option of frys or salad. I went with the frys. Frys were crispy and delicious. Restaurant was clean and had quite a bit of customers in my time there. I would recommend it and will be returning to eat soon.. read more

Chicago Gyros - Front of the restaurant. - Greek Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Best gyro in Phoenix! I've never had a bad experience here. Not only are the gyros and shawarmas to die for, but their fries are also the best I've ever had. Food is always hot and fresh, the woman at the counter is always friendly, and there's no better $11 meal in town. read more

Was craving a good gyro and heard really good things about this place, and everyone was correct! If you blink you'll miss it driving, located in a very small plaza off of union hills, this place is worthy of its 5 stars! A FULLY loaded and flavorful gyro pita was more than I could eat! The Greek salad to go was fresh, great dressing and just the right amount of feta. The menu was huge with so much to choose from! The staff was friendly, and very quick service. It's a small and comfortable place to grab a bite and enjoy some very authentic Greek good! A huge plus, they included all the dressing and sauce on the side for our to go order so our food wouldn't get soggy! I can't wait to go back and explore the menu! read more

I tend to check this place out somewhat regularly when craving fast food. The gyro, falafel, and schwarma sandwiches are great . The plates/platters offer pretty good proportions, which allow you to make your own wraps, and the Chicago style dog is filling and tastes fresh. read more

We were passing by this Syrian-operated Greek restaurant, and decided to grab dinner due to their favorable ratings on Yelp. The horizontal interior started with the front counter sandwiched in-between two dinning areas. The clean, modern décor was appealing, but also a mismatch with the order first, seat yourself, fast food plastic plate protocol. The spacious layout was underutilized since majority of the foot traffic was for takeout orders. Apparently, the young gentleman who took our order had his eyes glued to the TV. We asked specifically if they had a combo plate that comes with hummus, and he suggested we should order the hummus as a separate item. Minutes later, we saw on the flash screen menu that they did have a Chicken and Hummus Plate ($9.25), but we were told the kitchen had already made our food, and it was too late to change our order. The food still took some time to come after we had talked to the server. The Cilantro Jalapeno Hummus ($4.95) was smooth, creamy, and spread well on the warm spongy pita bread. To our disappointment, the hummus did not carry any heat or taste of jalapeno. The appetizer did not come as advertised, nor did it looked similar to the photo on the menu. Souvlaki Plate ($9.95) the sliced pork loin was tender, and coupled nicely with the sharp onions and rice. Santi noticed the seasoning lacked oregano, so the flavors were flat and lacking complexity. Adding to our disappointment, the portions size was small for the price when compared to other nearby restaurants. Chicken Shawarma ($9.95) came in dark and white meat that was sliced too small. The flavor was lacking and the chicken was dry. Thankfully there was tzatziki to the rescue in an otherwise failed dish. Each of the main entrees also came with their delicious pita bread. They were not homemade, but I do recommend them. Many similar restaurants offer a salad, hummus, or other sides as a part of the meal, but not here. The lone server at the register was mostly focused on the football game the entire time we were there. His lack of professionalism kicked into a higher gear when he told another customer in a disrespectful manner that he would have to pay for the same price by forfeiting his drink. Every phases of the meal was done in bad taste. We will not be returning. read more

Chicago Gyros in Phoenix Arizona Chicago Gyros is a clean, pleasant, establishment with a professional friendly staff. Today, was my first visit to Chicago Gyro, however, it won't be my last.  On this visit I had the Philly Gyro with Fries.  The fries were piping hot, crispy, well seasoned, and fresh.  I wasn't planing on eating all the fries, however, I did , the fries were delicious. My Philly Gyro was equally goox.  The Pita was soft, fresh, and hot, and the serving of Gyros was more then generous. The beef was moist, as if it had just been shaved onto the pita.  I enjoyed the onions and peppers, which were on the sweet side, and not too strong to enjoy.  The portions are generous, the prices are fair, and the customer service is great. If your ever in the area, you should give Chicago Gyros a try. read more

Chicago Gyros - Greek Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I fondly remember a favorite back at school in New Haven CT that we frequented called Mamouns and this has been my comparison scale on ALL middle east / greek food that i devour down when I need my gyro fix. Here, the customer services needs work, they need to be a bit more helpful and understanding when new customers come in. Yes, I'm familiar to this style of food, but not your menu setup and I need you to walk me through it. Sorry, it was a turn off for us when pressured to order faster. We walked in and no one was here yet. But as soon as we placed our order the place seemed to fill up quite fast. (Good timing on our part) Food was just... just.. okay. A little dry, a little garlic-y, maybe this is the 'Chicago Style' ...not sure, but it was just okay in my book. Now don't get me wrong, I WILL return to give them another crack at it, as I sample a few other menu items, and will update my review as I go. read more

Talk about a bitchen Gyro!!! Load that thing up with the Gardien Peppers & Tzatziki Sauce!! Oh and ask for an extra Tzatziki sauce just because - it's sooo good. I can't really speak for Gyro's in Chicago or for that matter any other place than Phoenix so with that said. THIS PLACE RULES!! I've had a Gyro over at Greek Town on 7St and while the food was authentic and NO YOU CAN'T have any damn FRENCH FRIES with your Gyro... I dare you to even ask that dude - so while it may be authentic it was also a light weight compared to the Feast of Awesomeness that you'll experience at Chicago Gyros!! and don't forget the extra Tzatziki sauce.... p.s. The Fries are damn good too!!!!! read more

I remember this place being built over 20years ago and it's still going strong. When I'm hungry and I want plentiful food, I get the gyro combo. They have perfected the gyro. They have been consistent and never gotten a bad one. read more

Greek salad with a side of pita bread, a perfect dinner. Let alone great portions to share with a friend!

One of the few valley places that actually reminds me of the Gyro places in the Chicago area when I lived there. Hummus selection is very good and tasty, falafel are flavorful but not too oily, and entrees are displayed well for what is really a fast food place. Friendly service is a nice plus as well. Drawbacks are the lines this place can garner during the weekday lunch rush and pricing seems a little high for what it is. Also, it's not exactly a nice area, especially the strip mall with all of the signs to sell your gold. read more

Chicago Gyros - Hummus Trio - Greek Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

What a fun place this is and I'm happy I found d it and will be back. You can get a healthy combo meal with a chicken pita or gyro and a salad that is full of great fresh produce for $10.25. I wanted to try the hummus and it was fantastic and a smidge over priced at $4.95 but it does come with two pitas and if split would be perfect starter fora group. Next time I'm getting Chicago beef and a hot dog and fries when I'm in a a not so healthy mood. ;-) And the homemade baklava looks fantastic. read more

First thing I have to say is that this place is hard for us more nocturnally inclined folks to eat at since they close at 8pm. When we did get our first shot at feasting on the delicious cuisine they had to offer boy were we happy. The basic Gyro meal with a Gyro, fries and a drink was 7.75 and that is exactly what I ordered, not wanting to try anything fancy the first time. It took maybe 5 minutes from order to food sitting in front of me and the first thing I noticed was that there was quite a heaping of thin sliced lamb meat piled onto the fresh looking pita slathered in sauce and topped with some onion. I opted out of getting tomato. First bite was awesome, and the next bite was just as good if not better as my brain realized that I had probably found the best Gyro's I've had in Phoenix. They weren't super greasy, the tzatziki sauce was great, and the onions were nice and crispy. I ate the whole gyro before even taking a stab at the fries. Probably not coincidentally the fries were actually quite good as well. Yet again, not super greasy, and with ketchup, they had just the right flavor. They have Veggie friendly meals, and also chicken, steak and Filafel as well as a whole Chicago menu with things like Vienna Beef hot dogs and pizza puffs. Overall it's a definite must try in Phoenix. read more

Absolutely amazing food! The service was great and the atmosphere is OK. It's a little pricey but definitely worth every penny! I strongly recommend Chicago Gyros! read more

Did I like the place? Yes Was it the best gyro I've ever had? No Will I be back? Yes Like most other restaurants in the valley it's in another dying strip mall. So there's not much to say about its presence from the street. However, while inside you would think it was full of life and not dull at all. The gyros aren't bad, but the tzatziki sauce was amazing I have to admit. Don't know what they did with that sauce, but that alone will keep me coming back. I also like their salads they offer with fresh looking ingredients and great tasting house dressing. The decor has a nice Greek theme with a Chicago influence, who would have thought? The restaurant is pretty clean, but a little cluttered in some areas. Not a big complaint at all, just wish they would put things where they should be and not in plain site of the customers. Definitely worth a visit if in the area! read more

After paying $10 for a footlong Tuna and a drink at Subway (read the review), I was obligated to find new lunchtime stomping grounds. And I've found one. How someone is going to take points for "ambiance" in a Chicago style gyro eatery is worth my lolz. But, you're not going to a Chicgo style gyro eatery for "ambiance". You're going for good grub, and a bottomless drink cup. This place rocks for what it is. The decor is cool. I spent the vast majority of my meal staring at the posterboard sized photos of downtown Chicaga. I was lost and mezmerized at the fine details of the photos. I would bite, and stare. Bite, and stare. And there was much to bite on. This pita came STUFFED with succulent, tasty meat. I'm not a tomato fan, so I left those for those who are. My gyro was oozing sauce. I would take a bite, and while enjoying the deliciousness that permeated my over-stuffed mouth, contemplated what to do about the sauce on my fingers. KNOWING that if I dared to open my mouth, I'd be looking at the food I had just started to chew, but understanding that if I did nothing with the sauce it would drip off of my fingers into the basket. Quite the dilemma, I tell you. Bite, and stare.... Ooooh! Look! Fries! Mmmmmmm.... I was there at 11:30 on a Thursday, and it was less than crowded. Parking was no issue. All of this for less than $7. Yep. I'll take my $3, and give it to the bum on the street. Better than spent at Subway. read more

Chicago Gyros - Lunch special = 1 basket of yummy! - Greek Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I went there since a little kid and always got the Chicago hot dog. I wasn't a fan of tzatziki sauce and always got the hot dog when my parents got the gyros. They got rid of the hot dog and I am completely heartbroken. The service there was always good but since I have to get the gyro now I think it's slightly mediocre. read more
