Tried this gyro spot recently and it was solid. The meat was juicy and well-seasoned, not dry at all. Pita was fresh, toppings were balanced, and the tzatziki had great flavor. Good portions for the price and quick service. Definitely a quality quick bite. read more

Ordered a chicken souvlaki with 2 skewers and pita bread. Their chicken is seasoned. One of the skewers was so dry. Pita bread is also kinda dry. Comes with homemade sauce taziki. The pita bread gets soggy from the sauce. Wished they put the pita in a separate container. You order and they make it for you. I just wished one of my skewers wasn't so dry. One and done. read more

I had this place bookmarked for some time now. And I was finally able to stop by after Yelpie awards event which was really fun. It was getting late so I ordered for pickup. There was a confusion in my order, I ordered the lamb gyro and the person on the phone mentioned if I wanted the grilled lamb gyro and I said is that the lamb gyro that gets cooked on that gyro cooker and the person responded saying yes it's the grilled lamb gyro. So I got that. As I went in to get my order, the sit down area was still open so I decided to dine in real quick. I looked at the menu and what I really wanted was the beef & lamb gyro.. the grilled lamb gyro was good but just not what I wanted but still good. The fries with the gyro gave it a nice crunchy texture and the lamb itself was pretty good but each piece had some sort of tendon, it was tender besides the tendon part. Wish they gave a little bit more grilled lamb. The tzatziki sauce was also good. Overall it was a good gyro and I will be back for the beef & lamb gyro! * Street parking * Dine in available read more

Got Efi's to go and it was some of the best Greek food I've ever had. The gyro was delicious and super flavorful. The French fries were cooked to the perfect crisp and packed full of flavor. If you're in the mood for great Greek or Mediterranean food you've GOT to try Efi's! read more

This place has the best fries! Kinda weird for a gyro place but hear me out. The fries by themselves are delicious, double fried and always crunchy. I get their loaded fries with feta, tzatziki, Efi's sauce and shaved chicken and pork. Again, all crunchy even with the saucy toppings. Onasis has helped me the last two times I came in. He's very helpful and attentive. 10/10 recommend read more

We always visit Efi's when we want Greek food close to the originals you get in Greece. Efi's never disappoints and the staff are friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend their pork stick. The sauce they drizzle on top is to die for! read more

Stopped by for a casual dinner and was pleasantly surprised. I love Greek food but typically don't eat at more casual places. My fiancé and I ordered the chicken platter and it came with a good portion of food. The only downside is I prefer tender chunks of grilled (souvlaki) and this wasn't served souvlaki style. The salad was very fresh, the fries perfectly crispy, and the pita fluffy and warm. The tzatziki and efi sauce were both great! We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and look forward to returning in the near future! read more

Efi's Gyro - Chicken Platter - Middle Eastern Near Me - Montclair, New Jersey

Cute and clean place with friendly service. Popped in for a chicken gyro which comes with tomato, red onion and crunchy fries. I added feta cheese on mine too. It was tasty but struggled to find any actual pieces of chicken and not just thin skin shavings of chicken. It was a little dry so got some more sauce. Not much tomato or red onion either. I've had gyros that were better so that's what I'm comparing it to. Had a bottle of sour cherry drink too. Yup, it's definitely sour. Overall, it's a nice place to go for a quick bite. read more

A solid fast causal spot, close to the Wellmont. We went here before a show to grab a quick bite, and I can say this place is great. We both started with rice bowls with lamb, and a Greek salad. The rice was fluffy and seasoned, the lamb was not overcooked, and the Feta tzatziki the bomb. The star of the show was the Efi's loaded fries!!!! Fries were crispy, the shaved pork was tender and the honey mustard greek sauce was sooo good. I will be back ! read more

My favorite spot to grab a chicken gyro in Montclair. I love that fries are stuffed in this gyro. I always ask for tazeki sauce as it doesn't come with it. I enjoy trying their authentic Greek sodas as well. The owner Efi is always so kind. read more

The pandemic changed a lot of things. The way that I work changed. I usually skip lunch, or I eat at my desk while I'm working now. I don't see that habit changing any time soon. At this rate w/ inflation and some companies having to layoff folks... I'm thankful to have a job. Anyway. I was in New Jersey for work and stayed at a hotel about a block away from this place. I was flabbergasted because of the humidity, the fact that I woke up at 5AM EST to workout made my hunger pangs grew worse. I didn't eat anything all day and was looking forward to some solo dining. The one thing I love about traveling for work is that I get to enjoy a meal by myself. I don't get alone time. I ordered their grilled lamb platter, a diet soda, and a Spanakopita. I was expecting small squares or triangles, but it was fun eating a big slice. The lamb was so tender and flavorful. Like I wish the platter came w/ more! It's a deconstructed gyro. The fries were well seasoned. The tzatziki sauce was creamy and cooling. I don't like East coast summer. The meal was a perfect ending to my exhausting day. Service was wonderful. read more

I decided to give Efi's Gyro another try to explore more of their menu. Unfortunately, this visit didn't live up to my expectations. The flavors weren't as good as before, and the portions felt noticeably smaller. I left feeling disappointed and am unsure if I'll be back. Soggy pita, flavorless and mushy vegetables in the salad.

Amazing chicken souvlaki platter with fresh Greek salad and crispy fries. The chicken was cooked to perfection. The tzatziki and Efi's sauce were good additions. I have also tried their beef gyro wrap and that was really good too. read more

Cool trendy spot, but not really like a traditional chicken gyro. Although it was flavorful and the pita nice and soft it lacked meat and veggies. It was like I was eating just flavored bread and fries. read more

Gyros, platters (any meat or veg) are delish. Friendly staff, Efi is sweet and treats you like family.

Great fast casual place. Ended up here after a changed plan and we loved it. The place is busy with take out orders and they have a couple of tables to enjoy the food there.

I ordered via uber eats for a group at work and i asked for a chicken rice platter - extra chicken w extra tzatziki sauce. what i got was a bowl of chicken skin & they ensured to fill the bowl w all chicken skin ONLY. I did call to advise but bc i work until 1030pm i am not going to be able to drive to have the food replaced. i am not pleased w the food and whoever prepped the food should be ashamed/ the food smelled horrible because it was chicken skin only - then the tzatziki sauce was spoiled. UPSET about not getting good food the first time! I should not have to travel for a replacement read more

Good quality has gone down tremendously since they've opened the second location in JC. I've been coming here since they've opened and the chicken use to be crispy and flavorful...now fatty barely cooked chicken. I always order ahead of time and my order is always ready 15-30 minutes after the estimated pick up time. I am a foodie and do not care if I have to wait an hour for food to be done but having me show up 30 minutes before my food just to stand around is ridiculous. read more

I recently ordered a lamb gyro from here for lunch. I must say that the lamb gyros were simply outstanding! Tender, succulent meat packed with some good flavor, wrapped in warm fluffy pita bread and topped with a fries, fresh tomatoes, and onions and tangy tzatziki sauce. A must-try for gyro enthusiasts in New Jersey! read more

5/5 stars all around! Efi's is a GEM. Parking was easy to find on a less busy street and a quick 5 minute walk. I was so excited to see that they sell plant based gyros. As a vegetarian, my typical gyro is just veggies and sauce so it was nice having a plant based meat option. Efi's is a small but mighty spot with a couple of tables to sit and enjoy your meal. Their food will blow you away! I opted on the plant based gyro (Imported pita from Greece, homemade tzatziki, tomato, onion and fries) and added tzatziki. I also ordered a side of greek fries w/ feta and a bougatsa (Greek Homemade vanilla sweet cream pie). I was also suggested the VIkos carbonated drink. I am not a soda drinker so I was hesitant but the staff told me cherry is their fave and it is not my fave as well! The staff was super sweet! I even told them I am visiting Greece this summer and they told me to stop by before my trip for recommendations. I highly suggest this place for anyone looking for authentic Greek cuisine! read more

Efi's Gyro - Plant Based Gyro Sandwich - Middle Eastern Near Me - Montclair, New Jersey

I've been coming here for years!!! The most authentic Greek food I've had here in the states. Everything on the menu is a hit. The food takes about 10 minutes if you order in-person. Everything is fresh, tasty, and quality. There is limited seating indoors but plenty of additional seating outside to immerse yourself in the Montclair streetscape. I can't recommend this place enough. Fair warning: you will crave Efi's Gyro after trying it! read more

Efi's is a triumph of cuisine and procedure, delivering up excellent fare within the order-at-counter paradigm, and these days the presence of outdoor tables is a plus. The only suggestion for improvement is they don't describe what's in the plant-based option. The pork gyro was brilliant, juicy on the inside and some crispness on the outside. And when consuming a generous amount of pork, it's great to have a salad so you can feel healthy, hence the platter is recommended. You also get fries, pita and tzatziki. Greek soda bottles are available; I enjoyed the cherry. The service was delightful. read more

Ooh I really liked this place. Portions are average not too generous but not stingy either. They have Pork,Lamb and chicken options available. Everything from platters to Gyros to Falafel. Service is great, pleasant and quick. They stuff a few fries into their gyros and it puts it right above others for me. Fresh roasted Chicken,Pork or Beef on spits. Fresh ingredients and high quality all around. Place is clean every time I've visited. Their platters are worth every penny. Great tzatziki sauce, definitely homemade. read more

This has to be one of the best authentic Greek Gyros Cut from the Spit . Food is awesome, is awesome , original home made and a very clean place .

The vegan plant-based gyro is sooooo good. Make sure to ask for the tzatziki to be replaced with hummus. The vegan meat is imported to the US and soy-free. The flavor and texture is amazing. They have a few vegan options great for all your friends to enjoy. Conveniently located on a popular street with lots of shops, so you can stop here to grab and quick bite. Fries are seasoned very well. Workers are very nice and explain everything on the menu. Highly recommend for all local vegans!!! read more

Efi's Gyro - a hand holding a pita filled with french fries - Middle Eastern Near Me - Montclair, New Jersey

Checked this place out for a quick and inexpensive dinner. There isn't much room to sit aside from a few tables and a counter. Because of that, we ended up getting takeout. It's a simple menu which makes ordering easy. We ordered 2 chicken gyros, which is essentially chicken, red onions, french fries and tzatziki on a pita. Prices are reasonable, I believe our total came to under $25 for two. It was made up quick and put into takeout boxes. They were packaged very nicely inside boxes, which helped them to stay warm and in place in transit. The gyro was delicious. One of the best in the area. My favorite part was the greek fries that are loaded into the gyro. The fries stayed crisp inside the gyro, which is sooo important for takeout! I will be back here for sure. read more

Almost perfect just need halal gyro meat besides chicken. Glad there's a gyro place near the ymca again.

We checked this place out for a quick takeout dinner. We got the plant based platter ($15.95) and the chicken platter ($14.95) to split. Order took about 20 mins from ordering which was accurate so a big thumbs up. The platters came with the protein, salad, fries, tzatziki and pita. Both proteins were well cooked , good crispy fries, and the tzatziki was DELICIOUS! Both good portions so will definitely be pack to try one of the gyros as they looked delicious. read more

Excellent service, okay food. Staff oriented me to what they offer and meals arrived at our table within 10 minutes. I ended up getting a Chicken Bowl with my choice of tzatziki sauce (or you can choose hummus or eggplant sauce). The tasty chicken and veggies were plentiful and fresh but the sauce came in a little container and seemed too thick to pour and/or too skimpy to really enjoy my dish. Then my hubs told me that his Chicken Gyro Sandwich was just okay. read more
