    Gyro & Fries meal!
    John B.

    Without beating around the Busch(Boulevard), I'll get right to the point! Nestled in between the BK, the Dunkin and the McD is an interesting choice for drive through/fast food directly across from the beer Jungle. I absolutely did NOT want anything Whoppery, Dunk-y or Big Mac-y so I was really keen on trying something different. Garden Gyros was a natural since I do love gyros. And a gyro is what I got. The Gyro & Fries meal, for $8.99 with my choice of original gyro meat. You can also get it with chicken. My Gyro meal was one large heaped up pita, full of delicious gyro meat and tzatziki sauce along with a mound of crispy good fries. I felt it was a nice portion for the price! The meat was full of that familiar gyro flavor and blended well with the creamy dill-liciousness of the tzatziki. I enjoyed every bite. Service was fast and friendly for me, going through the drive-thru. I'd have NO problem going back! As Axl Rose of Guns N' Roses fame says, 'Welcome to the Jungle!' ...or at least the little gyro place across the street from it!

    It's no outside seating, there is inside seating. I ordered to go two gyros 9.99. Sauce on the side. Good food fast service.

    After returning to our hotel, the Hampton Inn, I had the late night munchies so I walked to the McDonald's next door. Closed. So I walked to the opposite side and the Dunkin Donuts was also closed, but beyond that was this little hole in the wall Garden Gyros. You walk can go thru the drive thru or walk up and place your order. Their menu is varied and reminds me very much of Purple Onion at home. There's everything from hamburgers, fish sandwich, greek salads, to of course gyros. I just went to the top and ordered the combo #1, gyro, fries and drink for right at about $10. There are only about 3 small tables to sit and they could've used a good wiping, but it's either stand or sit and wait for your order. About 10 minutes later I got my food and walked 2 blocks back to the hotel. The pita bread was soft and slightly toasted, filled with grilled lamb seasoned nicely. Also piled in were onions, bell pepper and cucumber sauce. Tasted very good and again reminiscent of Purple Onion or Tazikis. Their fries were made fresh and also very good. Everything quenched my late night munchies! Not bad for $10.

    This place is a dump. You can see from the street that it is run down. upon entering the building the first thing you notice is that the roof is leaking and the floor is filthy. It's type of place where if you don't pay ahead you're probably going to leave once you see the state of the interior. Upon receiving my food I really begin to question my life choices. Should I eat it or just throw it away. I open my to-go box and see that the food appears to be appetizing. I give the to-go box a good sniff and something just smelled off. Since I had already spent my money and I live by the theory of no risk it no biscuit I braved the disaster of this to go box. The wings were terrible. I wouldn't be surprised if they were yesterday's wings flash-fried for a fews to warm them up. The sauce was super watery and flavorless except for this strange metallic taste. I stopped eating the chicken wings which isn't something I do very often because I love chicken wings. I moved on to the gyro that I ordered and it was covered in tzatziki that seems spoiled. It tasted more like rancid tartar sauce than zatziki. Because my sandwich was covered in it it made it damn near inedible. I opened the wrapper and it looked like bukkake scene. Yet again I had to stop halfway through and throw it away. This was an extremely disappointing experience and I don't think that I will ever eat here again.

    The staff was very welcoming, and the portions were nice. I tried the fried scallops which were interesting as scallops a are soft and the outside was crispy. Although seasoned and breaded nicely, I do not think I would try this dish again. It is more of a texture thing and not anything to do with the restaurant itself--I'll probably stick to things like fried calamari as the textures do not conflict. As far the gyro it was so delicious, and they also gave me a mini one!

    Let's get started. You know what time it is. This place was rough looking and it was in a rush. We were the only ones in the restaurant. I didn't know this was actually a fast food style restaurant. I ordered my food for pick up through the app. I've got a steak Philly and I got buffalo chicken sandwich. I probably like the chili a lot more and I was happy with the prices. My wife was happy so you know that means him. Prices are good and the food is good and they aren't looking to renovate this place clearly

    Full Menu (Drive Thru)

    This place was amazing, but not just because of the food, the variety, or the pricing. The best thing about Garden Gyros is the owner. I'm not sure of his name, and honestly I'm just assuming he's the owner, but charisma and customer service of that man is unmatched and impeccable. I witnessed him personally come out and take the order of someone who was struggling and seemed nervous in the car in front of me in the drive thru and he ended up making them laugh and satisfied with their choice and experience. Now onto the food, I got the gyro + 10 boneless wings with a drink combo and it was only 11 bucks, added a side of fries and I ate all that food for only 13 dollars, incredible deal in todays food market. I was surprised as well by the variety of menu choices from crab legs, to shrimp, to even fettuccine Alfredo! In the end the food was really good, especially for the amazing price, and next time I'm visiting Tampa, I will definitely visit again, because in all honesty the owner saved my trip, I went to Busch Gardens, wasn't having a great time with some of my group, and this man brightened up the whole weekend, HE IS THE BEST PART OF TAMPA!!!

    Driving by and couldn't refuse! Friendly staff and excellent food for 4. Gyros, 1/2pd of fish and boneless chicken fingers all with French dies delicious. Will be back again, thanks for a great meal. They are open till 3 am affordable prices when living on a budget.

My father was from Greece so any chance I get to travel and try Greek food I make it a priority to. I was warmly greeted and sat right away. I ordered the gyro platter and the food came out in a timely manner. The meat was seasoned just like in Greece and the salad and fries were delicious. Only thing I would suggest is add more of the delicious tzatziki onto the gyro platter as I ate my food savoring every bite alone I took in the restaurant and watched what was going on in the world outside. Suddenly I was greeted by an employee who worked there who later told me his name Miguel. We chatted about Greece and life and how we both have been living some place new for a year. He made sure to ask about the food and service and was a perfect addition to my experience there. In Greece food is the center of family life and connection. We cook to bring people together. Miguel and his taking time to talk to me about life and making sure the food was great elevated the level of this restaurant. I felt more like a friend visiting than someone eating alone at a new restaurant for the first time. That is the beauty about a great restaurant and a great team they make you feel right at home! Can't wait to be back the next time in town and as we say in Greek YIASSO!!

Our server was nice and attentive and offered food suggestions which was appreciated as this was our first time. The lamb meatballs were not my favorite. If you are not a texture person then you will probably be fine. The whipped feta was definitely a favorite. Not pictured are their lamb chops with asparagus and potatoes. The lamb chops and potatoes were cooked and seasoned well! The only thing we wish was better was their bathroom setup. They have one single-occupancy men's restroom and one single-occupancy women's restroom. They do not keep up with making sure the bathrooms have toilet paper nor keep it clean. We understand it was busy but hopefully they can improve this in the future. Otherwise, I recommend especially when there is a dj!

I did not mind too much though because the overall experience was still really fun. Definitely a place I would go back to!

The customer service was genuinely some of the best we've ever experienced it was warm, welcoming, and so hospitable. The bread was phenomenal and worth the visit all on its own!

The köfte was perfectly cooked and seasoned, the rice was absolutely delicious, and the fresh salad was the perfect complement. I also ordered a side of chicken just to try it, and it was equally flavorful, tender, and cooked to perfection. For drinks, we tried the Turkish pear soda and the orange soda.

I was also shocked I had never heard of it. I went yesterday for the first time to have it in person and was blown away at the quality of food in terms of how fresh EVERYTHING was and how efficient the service was. The staff was so so wonderful. Cassie, Clayton, & Joy were all such a pleasure to meet and speak to. I'll be happy to go support them in their new location opening in Largo. Getting into the food - here's what we ordered and thoughts on each: - Trio of Spreads: Pesto Hummus, Roasted Garlic Feta, Tzatziki w/ grilled & fried pita chips. Each dip was INSANE and you could tell by the taste they were not only homemade but made to order. My favorite was the whipped feta but i could genuinely eat each of them everyday. They asked if we wanted the pita grilled or fried and when I asked which was better they gave us both! And I'm so glad they did because I really enjoyed both and had never had fried pita before (delicious of course). I will be getting this every time. I do remember the dips going crazy when we had gotten it catered and they hit just as hard this time around. - Chopped Greek Salad w/ potato salad. I had this infamous dish when we had it catered and I was literally addicted to the potato salad. I remember I had a plate of everything else then went back for a full plate of the potato salad. I definitely recommend getting this salad chopped over the traditional way as it is much easier to eat. So unique they add the pasta salad to it!! - Chicken Souvlaki Pita. I always get gyro pitas so was trying to switch it up here and I was so glad to finally try Chicken Souvlaki (I've had Greek sooo many times but never tried it) and it was SO yum. Definitely a good change of pace for me. - Gyro Pita Platter. Still needed to try out their gyro so got the platter which is basically a deconstructed pita. I love that you're able to add as much or little of each of the ingredients - it reminds me of taco nights! The gyro was fire of course. - Greek Feta Fries. These were seasoned to PERFECTION. I was stuffed but couldn't stop eating them. You gotta order these at every Greek place and constantly compare. These were a wedge vibe and the perfect amount of potato in my opinion (I'm Irish so I prefer a thick steak fry to a skinny mcdonald's fry). The flavor went crazy. EXTRA SAUCES - DONT SLEEP ON THE SPICY TZATZIKI

    Service can be a little slow but the food generally tastes pretty good once it gets there…read more The pita pizza on the kids menu tastes pretty much like regular cheese pizza. Works great for our kids.
