Stopped in while near by running errands, tucked next to the gym. I ordered a kids meal all meat as I was just wanting a small portion and the guy working the counter was more than accommodating. The meat was so tender and rice had a tasty flavor. read more

The best Greek food, hands down. The owner is awesome and gives everyone a great experience. I highly recommend this place.

So fresh. So good, so friendly! Don't miss an opportunity to eat here. If you're new to gyros, try it! I get the Gyro plate extra Feta cheese, or the no carb beef and lamb bowl. I'm only sad that this is not closer to where I live. read more

My husband and I stopped by Express Gyro in Lincoln for a late lunch. You order at the counter and they brought our food to us. I ordered the chicken plate, which came with chicken topped with tzatziki, rice, garlic hummus, and warm pita bread. My husband got the chicken loaded fries, and both meals were absolutely delicious -- and the portions are generous! The inside is clean and inviting, with plenty of seating options, plus a nice outdoor seating area if you want to enjoy your meal outside. The owner is incredibly kind and helpful, and our food came out quickly. We'll definitely be coming back! read more

My partner and I came here for date night, and it was the perfect choice. The service was thoughtful, and our server even suggested a wine that beautifully with our meal. We shared a mezze platter and then enjoyed seafood paella, both rich in flavor and presentation. With soft lighting, elegant décor, and gentle music, the ambiance was wonderfully romantic. read more

Express Gyro - Beef lamb Mediterranean nachos - Mediterranean Near Me - Lincoln, California

Food is fresh and high quality. We ordered chicken gyro combo and the chicken is high quality lean chicken breast, veggies are fresh, and sauce is good. Fries are like major fast food place size and shape but better! They are ALL crisp and crunchy. I've gone here twice in one week. Family run business.owner is friendly and went out of his way to acknowledge my presence when picking up an order. On second visit he heard the lemonade faucet on the soda machine sputter and checked with me it was working ok. That attention to customers and detail shows senior who cares about his customers. Much appreciated. I will return regularly. read more

6/16/2023: I posted my Express Gyro receipt; I had no choice but, ordering an inhaling session of a beef and lamb combination plate, one order of two garlic Hummus, and one mango Lassi to-go due to the fact, I had to have my Toyota 4-Runner's brand new tires' realigned and re-balanced-AGAIN--AUGH. Welp~That's the main reason for being so far away from my humble abode; there wasn't a Firestone Auto Care appointment available in Sacramento: Therefore, I might as well inhale a beef and lamb combination plate, one order of two garlic Hummus, and one mango Lassi while waiting for my Toyota 4-Runner's tires brand new tires' realigned and re-balanced. It was rather amusing inhaling my exotic cuisine meal at Firestone's waiting room; customers were literally staring at me while I was in the midst of my inhaling session, i.e., devouring every morsel on the to-go box~lol . . . I WAS FAMISHED. Still, my only complaint was the food wasn't piping hot--just lukewarm. The to-go meal shouldn't have been lukewarm especially, when Express Gyro is literally one-quarter of a block AWAY from Firestone, i.e., the reason for deducting one-star from Express Gyro's review. read more

I've been a loyal customer to Express hero since 2020. I love Greek food and this is the best Greek food place I've ever been to. The owner and staff are polite and wonderful people. I always get the all meat gyro, spicy, and it never disappoints. The only thing I can say is it surprised me when my 10-year-old daughter ate it faster than me. When I go there they treat me like family love this place and these people!!! I love the mural of grease on the wall and also the cultural music that they have playing really sets the vibe. I feel like I'm in Greece. read more

I've had this place 3 times; delivered, pick-up, and dine-in. All have been stellar. The freshness, quality, portions, and flavors are top-notch. Prices are great, relative to the size. The dining area is warm, with hints of Mykonos and Santorini, not to mention it's super clean too. The service is next level, you can really feel the love and pride the owner puts into his restaurant. Try the beef/lamb gyro with greek fries, you won't regret it! read more

Well as soon as I started to eat my gyro , I found some pubic hair attached to the meat. Greek fries are ok. The people are very friendly. Service is so good they give you surprises. As for Ambiance they need to play some bad bunny. read more

Express Gyro - Pubic hair in my gyro. - Mediterranean Near Me - Lincoln, California

The best Greek Food in Lincoln. The service and crew that work there are amazing people.

It's "Express" Gyro so quality/taste is very similar to "Taco Express" but we don't have the significant price savings for this place. Ordered a Beef Lamb plate which prices $5 more than the Mediterranean place by my house... Only one Pita included, it was thick/chewy, the classic hummus kind of basic flavored. The meat looks/feels/tastes cheaper and constrained to one corner of the box. There is a lot of rice if you consider that as a ratio to your overall meal. read more

I had an itch for something different, she 9n a very warm summer day Greek food seemed like a mighty good choice. I ordered online for pickup and it was ever so easy. Just go to the restaurant web site and the menu with photos is there, and simple to navigate. The order consisted of two meat plates of beef and lamb, with a choice of sides. I opted for the spicy cilantro hummus. The plate comes with a small salad, rice, and half a pita bread. To compliment the order I also got the Greek salad, an order of Greek fries and two orders of falafel (4 per orde). Everything was ready and packaged well for travel when I arrived... OK, an insignificant short wait, but the owners are very nice and personable, and appreciate the business. Overall, the portions are quite generous and the food is very good, hearty and tasty. The fries were very good the meat fresh and delicious, rice was fluffy and salad fresh as well. It isn't high end Greek cuisine, but quite satisfying simple Greek dishes, taverna style. I will gladly return and try more. read more

Ordered a beef and lamb gyro from this place. It was slightly overpriced being $12. Regardless, i got it pretty quickly. There was a lot more meat than i expected, which was fantastic, no complaints. What i didn't quite like was that everything was smothered in sauce. It was tooo much sauce. But it tasted ok. read more

As the name suggests it's "express"... Ordered their chicken plate and it was just ok. I was hungry, so I ate most of it except the hummus ( it was just salt, not much of flavor) its texture wasn't smooth, proof that it was homemade. Chicken was good more on the dry side since they use chicken breast. Though that it will be grill since it's Mediterranean but it was more oven cook then boil with yellow spices (maybe turmeric) But the main reason why I gave 2 stars is their hygiene code!!! Both worker at the front didn't wear gloves, mask or hair net plus they were chit chatting while preparing food... specially on these pandemic days.. everyone should be more concern. I wouldn't post any of the workers pics showing that they aren't wearing any gloves/mask/hairnet since I think it's inappropriate to show their faces. BUT make sure to put some attention when they prepare your food, at least please stop chatting with each other when you prepare food! I read more

My family went this past weekend to Express Gyro for the first time. The service was great. Very friendly and quick. The food was very tasty. Two of us had Gyros and they were great. The Greek Fries were also great. My daughter and wife had the Express Gyro Mediterranean Nachos with lamb and beef and the Express Loaded Bowl and both were very pleased. The meat was cooked just right and the Tzatziki sauce was great. The portions were generous. The atmosphere was nice and a great place to visit. John knew customers who came in and you could tell cared about the customers. I can't wait to go back. read more

Lived in this area for 20+ years. THIS IS THE BEST FOOD EVERRRR. I will never stop going here

I ordered the Beef and Lamb plate with the spicy hummus and it was fantastic! The meat was cooked perfectly and the rice had a dash of seasoning which complemented the whole meal. The service was great as they got our food out at a reasonable time. The ambiance was casual and well kept. Will definitely come back. A+ read more

The flavor of the beef/lamb meat is so crazy good!! Their pitas are soft and warm and their hummus taste really fresh. I'm a big fan of their tzatziki sauce. They have a big parking lot and parking is free. This place reminds me of Extreme Hummus in Citrus Heights, same ownership? So sadly I have to compare; the prices and portions at extreme hummus are better so I had to take off 1 star. read more

John and his son were extremely welcoming. I sometimes have trouble eating out because of my allergies but they made it really easy to order. John walked me through the menu, and made sure everything on it was okay with me. Such nice people!! And oh my gosh that gyro bowl I ordered was amazinggggg. Make sure you try that cilantro sauce. Thanks John! I can't wait to come back with my girlfriend. read more

What a great little restaurant. The food was amazing! I got the chicken gyro and it was super tasty. The service was outstanding. You can tell they really take pride in serving their customers. When I got home I noticed they put a complimentary piece of baklava inside the bag. It really made my day. So thoughtful, I highly recommend. read more

Owner is very friendly and makes a point to connect with the customers. Each time we come in he recommends something new to try or has us sample something new. Food is great and something for everyone! read more

We eat here a couple times a month, we always get the chicken gyro plate, with the jalapeno hummus & extra hot sauce on the side. Haven't tried anything else, mostly because we love that plate lol The food is always on point and the owners/staff are always very kind. Food is prepared quickly! Definitely a go-to for us after the gym! read more

Been here for lunch 2 or 3 times in the last few months. Mixed feelings on this one. The service is very friendly and efficient. Employees are really nice. The dining area is clean and comfortable enough. Hummus and baklava are excellent. However, meats are hit and miss. The gyro meat has a very soft texture, I don't think it's fresh off a rotisserie spit. The chicken tastes better but my shawarma wrap came in lavash bread and not a pita. And the lavash disintegrated into a soggy mess after just a couple of bites. Not sure if we'll be back, since the wife found the gyro meat unpalatable. read more

It's more like a 3.5 but I'm feeling generous. Small place with a bigger outdoor seating area. Very friendly boss man. Clean with pictures and murals of Greece. Menus and pictures of food everywhere. I ordered the beef and lamb gyro. The meat was soft and didn't taste as beefy or lamby like I like. There was no char so just a very soft bland texture. I thought the tzaziki sauce was very runny. I wouldn't order the beef and lamb gyro again. We tried both the hot sauce and the spicy cilantro sauce and they are very heavy on the vinegar. Cilantro sauce was spicier than the red sauce. Greek fries were just ok, tzaziki, hot sauce and feta cheese made for a very tart bite. The good: the falafel (which will take about 8 mins to make) was delicious! Nice texture, has a crunch but isn't crispy. Soft on the inside, heavy on the cumin. So tasty! Baklava was the nicest one I've had in a while. Not cloying sweet or super sticky, great taste and texture. BD liked his Greek salad. Said there was dried herbs mixed in that made it exciting. Saffron ice cream was enjoyed by all. Vanilla ice cream with saffron... oil? Cream? Liquid of some sort drizzled on top. Would come back for falafels! read more

Ordered a chicken plate w garlic hummus. The chicken was flavorful but wish the sauce was on the side. It was too much and didn't need it. Not a fan of the texture of the hummus. Rice was super plain. Didn't like the dressing in the salad. Ate all the chicken and the pita. Threw the rest away unfortunately read more

Excellent service, family friendly environment, and clean, too! The mural is beautiful and the food can't be beat!

I would consider myself a regular, it's nice to be recognized and have the owner remember me and my usual order. Great food, generous portions, reasonable prices, a clean and well kept dining area and a large dog friendly patio all add up to a great meal in a pleasant environment. A huge plus is that the patio is on the shady side of the building, so it's great for dinner except on the hottest days of summer. Enjoy! read more
