    Chicken platter with fries
    Megan G.

    Wow!! Myself and a few coworkers came here for lunch and we could not believe what a great experience it was! We work right down the road so this will be a regular spot from now on. The guy working the counter (we think he might have been the owner) was amazing and accommodating. It was really busy but he still took the time to talk to us and answer questions. I got the giardiniera hummus and we couldn't believe how delicious it was!! We loved it so much. We all got the chicken platter, I got fries my coworkers got rice. 10/10, the chicken was great. Massive portions. Gets really busy at lunch time so plan for that but the food still came out pretty quick.

    Chicken plate. The red sauce was very nice mixed into the rice.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Comfortable and obviously family run.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Order at counter. Wild selection. Front counter staff was very personable and just made the experience that much better. Good food, large servings. Bring an appetite.

    Burger triple with extra cheese

    My staple go to whenever I'm in that area. I was driving to another place for lunch a couple miles away and not sure how my foodie senses just drove me to George's. I mean look at that burger... nough said! A must go at least once in your life but be warned you'll be back!

    Buffalo chicken pita 10/10 Supreme orignal gyro 8/10 "One tons" 3/5 Zucchini flowers 3.5/5 I've always drove past this place living here in the Scottsdale/tempe area and I never went and ended up going twice in a row. It's that good. The buffalo chicken pita was honestly my favorite dish that I had it was just an absolute banger flavors and a lot of chicken so fire. The original supreme Gyro was the first one that I had tried prior to trying the buffalo chicken the next day, but I will say that this one was also really good. I only gave it a 8/10 just because I felt that the meat wasn't as hot and was more on a room temperature but overall honestly for trying this it was actually really good. The appetizers were good as well. If I'm not mistaken they are about $7-8 avg? Would I get again probably not. Only because felt little over priced for portion? But good The fries that come with are probably on my top 5 best fries at the moment!!!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service/staff are really friendly and welcoming and cleanliness was also good everything seems kept up[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Always good. Always fresh. Always people that care taking your order. Bringing in a first timer to enjoy.

    This used to be a go to spot for my coworkers and I. Pretty sure I came here once a week. The food is amazing and I'm honestly blown away at how many different things they have on the menu. The owner sometimes stops in and is so friendly. The portions are very good for the price. I tried to see if I have any photos of the food but honestly I'm usually so excited to eat I guess I never take any. You might never know this place is here but it's absolutely worth the stop. Do yourself a favor and order the Mac and cheese bites!

    Fish sandwich. Italian bread. Delicious.
    Jessie Z.

    Simple. Delicious. The best everything! Fresh. Affordable. Nothing is bad here. Get the original gyros, fish sandwich, burgers, fries, tots, hummus, side salad. The owner and staff are always friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place is always clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Honestly, it's so refreshing to have employees be so kind, smile, crack a joke, and be a normal human amongst our little corner of community!

    Brought a friend here who has never had Greek food before to try it out. The falafel was yummy itself, crispy and very well seasoned on the inside. The yogurt sauce fell a little flat for me, but not bad regardless. The gyro had plenty of meat which was great and you could taste it in every bite. My friend is from Mexico and I explained how it's cooked in a similar way to pastor. The salad was good and the tomato and peppers were definitely not old. The person up front was very polite and tipped this to a 5 star. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's not much of an ambiance, so our interaction with her set the tone for the place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Definitely a good spot to come by for lunch!

    Wild Spinach Chicken

    I have been coming here for over 12 years and my whole family great portions great prices, quality food never have had a bad experience the owner Z if he gives you a recommendation. Go for it he takes pride in his restaurant. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurants always clean[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] service is amazing.

    Chicken and classic Gyro and fries.
    David F.

    George's Famous Gyros does what it says on the tin--massive gyro sandwiches, heavy on the meat, and a tzatziki sauce that actually earns its keep. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is spotless, with the straightforward charm of any good gyro shop.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service is genuinely friendly and prices are almost a steal for the heap of food you're handed. No fuss, just a very good gyro done right.

    New cream cheese pops. Sauce is the bomb

So I feel safe posting cuz dbag doesn't read just has 8-pac abs-- still dumb tho Had to edit review bc he asked if they do catering as he always flies from UK to this dbag thing on Mummy Mountain in Paradise Valley every year and always complains about the food and demanded me to call/ask if they do catering. 2 hours before the event Yo. No. Bro. Not same day, dick!

Emphasis on dick. Hahaha, satisfied? ---- Well-- this rich London asshole is back in town. "Cheap flights why not? We get 6 weeks holiday anyway just to start." Told me to write and rave again.

We had the Chicago gyros, chicken schwarma, beef kofta, lemon rice soup, tabbouleh salad and fries. All were great, but the fries were outstanding! I've eaten a lot of fried potatoes in my life, and really none better. They rounded out the meal-hot, fresh, crunchy and soft. Perfect! If I had to have a "complaint," the lemon garlic aioli on the schwarma was a bit too much, get that "on the side" so you can manage that. Otherwise a great meal. OPA!

Honestly there's only one place that's close to this cheesecake and it's in Athens. This beats it though!
