From time to time, I crave a good gyro, and while I've been to Oakland Gyros on Locust a few times, this was my first visit to Golden Gyros. They're cash-only, but there's an ATM inside, so come prepared. Ordering is straightforward: walk in, order at the counter, and food is ready in about 10 minutes. We got the gyro dinner plate, which came out hot with a generous portion of meat, tomatoes, and onions. Fries were hot and crispy! The cucumber sauce (tatzaki) was extremely thick, which wasn't our favorite. Drinks come with refills, which is a nice touch. The real surprise? The vanilla frozen custard; thick, creamy, and absolutely delicious. I might even start picking this over Kopp's! read more

We felt like trying something different from our usual Kopps or Oakland Gyro. Found Golden Gyro through reviews and figured we'd give it a shot. It's a little stand-alone spot, cash only (which we knew ahead of time). The staff seemed a bit rushed, but not rude or anything. We ordered the gyro dinner and couldn't pass up the tiramisu frozen custard since it's one of my favorite desserts. Food came out pretty quick, and everything was nice and hot. The gyro and fries were actually really good! The tzatziki wasn't my favorite though -- super thick and kind of plain, more like Greek yogurt with cucumbers bits. The frozen custard was a nice surprise -- firmer than what I'm used to at Kopps but really tasty. I might even change my go-to! We'd definitely come back... just don't forget to bring cash. read more

This is one of my favorite spots for an extremely delicious chicken shish kabob sandwich! I swear the sauce they use is one of the most delicious. Order ahead of time, I promise, you will not be disappointed in any way. read more

Had a fish sandwich craving and my husband and I were driving past Golden Gyros so we decided to stop. The drive thru had quite a long line so we parked the car and my husband went inside to order. The fish sandwich was huge and I ordered the Greek fries which were soooo good! Also, ordered onion rings which were huge, hot and delicious!! We will be back. read more

Best custard in the state! Seriously, the best! Burgers good, gyros are nice too! Great family, very driven, good conversation.

I was looking forward to trying golden gyros after reading all of the positive reviews, but was ultimately disappointed. I wanted to like this so bad!! Maybe it was an off night, I don't know. Bring cash, and a lot of it. Our order was over $40 for two gyros and two orders of cheese fries. Big portions though. It was pretty busy but not too bad of a wait. The cheese fries were pretty darn good! The gyro was fine. The meat was a little overcooked and very salty. It didn't look fresh by the time we got home with our food. Maybe I'll try a cheeseburger instead next time. But for now, I'll stick to my usual gyro places (OG's & pak dahman). read more

Have driven by 100's of times,but never stopped Decided on a wim to give it a try.The drive thru was very busy so went in to order. Ordered two fish sandwiches, Greek fries ,regular fries and onion rings for us.Took awhile as many other orders were ready before my order.I think one of the fish was accidentally dropped so I think they had to fry another. Order was finally ready and clerk apologized for the wait.The sandwich was good(very large too), and the onion rings were very tasty.The fries were good,but nothing special. Overall it was good,but I expected a bit more for the price(a little on the high side).Taste was good,but just good.Would try again to try their Gyros.They also have custard.Worth a try,if you don't mind the prices. read more

They will never let you down!!! Everything on the menu is delicious. Staff are very helpful and friendly.

My fave spot for generous gyros, which I take back with me to California when I'm in town. Delish midwest style gyro meat, at a great price.

I've been coming here for decades. Their gyro sandwich tastes the same as it did in 2005. The service is fast, and the food is great. read more

This is our place to go and has been for YEARS. The food and service was great as always. Ordered 1 Chicken sandwich 4 cheeseburgers with the works 4 fries Total $62.25 Not bad at all. We'll be back again soon. read more

Fantastic food, service is always amazing and ambiance is meh ! Summertime you can sit outside on the front patio but the traffic is noisy. The place is always clean and like I had said service with a smile & a thank You every time. In today's fast food restaurants where they forget your order or parts of the order or are rude ,Golden Gyros is an exceptional breath of fresh air . It's a very simple operation they run over there and it works well read more

I just moved to the neighborhood, and my wife and I wanted to try out a new place. I ordered over the phone and spoke very clearly that I wanted to order 2 gyros and a side of fries. I was told the total was $16 and that the establishment was cash only, but that an ATM was on site. Strike 1 - When I arrived I went straight to the ATM and withdrew $20, plus the service charge. I went to the counter to get my order, but when he read off the order, there was only 1 gyro in the bag. I told the cashier that I 100% VERY clearly ordered 2. Strike 2 - The cashier didn't apologize. He now also told me the total would be $28! Almost $30 for a couple gyros and some fries. This meant that I had to go back to the ATM and pay another service charge to withdraw more money. Strike 3 - When I went back to the counter I told the employee that this was technically their fault, and that they should be considerate of the fact that I'm now literally paying for their mistake. The cashier essentially dismissed me. No apology, no offer to cover the service charge, no nothing. The kid just said "goodbye sir". I'm not the type of person to give 2 stars just for bad service. When I got home with the food, I couldn't believe how basic these gyros were for $30. Anywhere else for this price you get, olives, feta, maybe peppers... Not here. Just very sloppily cut huge chunks of onion and tomato. Nothing else. I used to live near Oakland Gyros, and this place simply doesn't compare. read more

Food is okay - but it's way too expensive even by today's standards (I realize prices for everything is going up but there are no eggs in my gyro)!! And they charge extra for everything - even when taking things off. They don't take credit cards, so no extra fees for them in that area - cash only - lining their pockets!!! read more

I know the pic looks like a hot mess but this is the best Chicken Shish Kabob in the Milwaukee area. Super flavorful (might be a tad salty for some), juicy, and generous portions too. The pita wrapped around the meat is soaked full of the spices and juices, which is so tasty. It normally comes with onions and tomatoes as well, but I get it without. I also love their tzatziki sauce because the cucumbers are tiny diced pieces instead of slimy shreds like most places. I don't know why but it makes a huge difference in the texture. Their frozen custard is super creamy. A friend recommended their Chocolate Malt flavor to me and it did not disappoint. read more

Golden Gyros - Chicken Shish Kabob Sandwich, no onions or tomatoes. Yes there is a pita soaking up all the flavorful juices underneath all that chicken. - Greek Near Me - West Allis, Wisconsin

Haven't had a gyro from GG for many, many years. This was one of the times I had cash and was in the area so had to get one. It was quite a bit of a wait. Maybe 15 minutes at the drive thru line. I ordered a Supreme Gyro which with tax came to $11.14. Just like I remembered it. Stuffed full of meat, onions and tomatoes. It also comes with 3 tsikiki sauces. I am giving it 4 stars even if the cashier gave me $1 instead of $4 back. She realized it and returned with the right change which I gave her the cash for tip. Even for take out it's good form to leave a tip. read more

So, we stopped to pick up dinner last night. We ordered 1 Gyro, 1 Chicken Shishkibob 1 order of fries and one order of onion rings. The total with tax was $36.00. Like I said previously, it's pricey but very good food. Upon checking our receipt, We noticed that we were charged 50 cents for ordering the Gyro with no tomato's??? I've never heard of anything so ridiculous!! They're already charging top dollar but then charge me extra for not taking tomato's? I'm sure these are made to order, so I can't see any reason to justify paying extra to omit the tomato's on a sandwhich? It's not the 50 cents, but the crazy practice. Anyone else encounter this? read more

I've always had fast and friendly service. Teenager says the chicken tenders are the best he's ever had. He's a no sauce kid, just the plain tender judged on its own. Gyros are delicious and enormous. I often get an extra pita bread as there is enough meat for two healthy gyros. Fries are really good too. Been going there for years its always good!! read more

I love gyro meat, so it was a no brainier that I needed to try Golden Gyros once I found out about it. I had some initial hesitation when I saw pictures of their menu and how pricy they are compared to other gyro places, but I figured it's worth trying once at the least. I was pleasantly surprised to see the building had a drive thru, which was convenient given the cold of winter and the limited time during a work day lunch break. Not as convenient is the fact that they only take cash. In an age when it's becoming less common for people to be carrying cash, establishments should give up their unwillingness to pay credit card services fees and get with the times. Thankfully I happened to have cash on me and didn't have to use their indoor ATM with likely a fee involved from my bank and possibly Golden Gyros as well. As noted, the prices are high. A gyro combo (sandwich, fries, and drink), was a little more than $13 before tax. I didn't feel I needed the soda, so initially I ordered just fries for $3.30 and a plain gyro $8.44. Immediately I noticed they had a "supreme" gyro with extra meat for $1.46 more. I changed my order and pulled ahead to pick up my $14 even in food. The bag I was given was HEAVY. Since I was driving I couldn't pull everything out right away and investigate, but the order of fries was huge. Easily enough that two people could have shared it and been satisfied. When I got to work, I opened up the biggest gyro I've ever seen. Literally it weighed just over a pound when I put it on our shipping scale. Clearly you get you're money's worth even if the money is more than most others. As far as taste goes, the fries were fine. There wasn't a lot of flavor, so I ended up using ketchup after a while just to mask the repetitive taste of potato. The gyro meat and pita were cooked well. Pretty standard on the flavor for both of those, even with the size being above standard. I don't know if I'd get the fries again mostly because the gyro supreme is a meal all on its own. Now that I know what to expect, I just need to make sure I go with a very empty stomach first. read more

Not just one of the greatest fast food spots in the city of Milwaukee. One of the greatest fast food spots in the whole country more like. Absolutely incredible little place with none-too-friendly service but very good prices, way out in the rundown, hard-to-reach West suburbs of Milwaukee. I've been coming here for about 15 years and it is as good now as it was then. The Gyro is very good and well worth a try but not the best in the city. However, where they set themselves apart is the Chicken Shish Kebab/Kabob. A lot of the places that serve Gyros in this region don't even have chicken kebab. Or if they do, it's some bland anglicized chicken kebab with no real spice or taste. Not here. Here you get the most succulent delicious juicy and spiced, heavenly chicken kebab you could ever imagine. Incomparable and luscious. Perfectly juicy spiced chunks of wonderful succulent chicken. Divinity. They should film it being cooked and do a Duran Duran song about it: Grills On Film. Anyway, make sure you come and try it. Lines get long (like the coke your sister does) and wait times are long (like your father's thingy, hence his weekend job for the gigolo agency), but it's worth it (as is your mother). read more

Well I reluctantly decided to give it another go... A mistake I will now learn from. Yet again I got two butt ends of tomato and another sloppy firm tasteless tomato. The meat was pretty good on flavor and cook level. The fact that the last I don't know how many times I've gotten poor food quality is beyond reconciliation. I will not be returning. We had to put our undercooked fries in our air fryer for crying out loud. Just go to Oakland Gyros!!! read more

I've never been a fan of gyros, but I think Golden Gyro may have changed my mind! This restaurant is a small, locally owned gem - especially if you love a great gyro. The owner is so friendly and is almost always there and we love supporting local, family-owned businesses! While the food isn't cheap, it is high quality. The portions are generous (easily 2-3 meals) and it just tastes great! They have a lot of options if you aren't into gyros and ice cream and traditional Greek desserts as well. They don't take credit or debit so remember to bring cash! read more

Been going here since I was a kid. Better than another gyro place in the city that might start with an O. The gyro and the chicken shawarma gyros are the vest and the supremes are chock full of meat - its almost 2 gyros in one. I went during social distancing and appreciate the drive thru but it literally wrapped around the block on a late Sunday evening. 30 minutes in a line that was 15+ cars deep was worth it though. read more

Very bad customer service! Went to redeem some food that was owed to me from a mistake on my previous visit. Some rude guy named Nick came to the window and gave me attitude right away. Instead of looking through their books he wanted me to pay for what was owed to me and redeem it on my next visit once again. And then asked why couldn't have just picked out the stuff I didn't want on my food last visit and just ate the food. Once I explained that's not making sense to me he said well you can wait 10 minutes while I look through the book with and attitude. At the point I had experienced such bad customer service I left with no food read more

I don't really have greek food often but wanted to try. the gyro gave way too much meat pause and it wasn't that good. the tzatziki sauce was pretty good and once you got to the pita it was really good.

Honestly the gyros are delicious and I am a frequent flyer. After a decade of eating there I've noticed a disturbing trend from the burger standpoint. 3 weeks ago I got a burger with a pebble/rock in it. At first I thought it was general gristle and after almost cracking a tooth I learned quickly after spitting it out it was an actual pebble/stone/rock. Today I came back and had the same thing, and that seems like a heck of a coincidence as I've been eating there for a decade and never had this problem. I suppose 2 quality issues over a 10 year period is acceptable, but rocks? More just want the owner to know and I can remove this. read more

Gyros, wonderful juicy legitimate gyro meat shaved from their vertical rotisserie cones. You get what you pay for here with generous portions to fill that void in your Greek loving heart. Greek fries are different from the typical, and are better for it. Cash only and worth every penny. read more

Coming from a big Greek family, this is the best Gyro sandwich I think I have ever had! Blows Oakland Gyros out of the water and there is no comparison! I always eat here before the fireworks on July 3rd at US Bank as a tradition! Pretty much always get a Gyro with extra lamb meat for about $12 bucks and the tzatziki sauce is fresh and on point which u also get 3 of them! The entire Gyro sandwich here is probably the best I have ever had and their custard is excellent as well! They only accept cash and this place is a gem no question about it! I definitely recommend it! read more

BEST Gyro EVER! Not talking from a one time visit. Been going here for years. Need a big appetite! Because you get your monies worth here! A lot of meat! And big on perfect flavor! Flavorful pita bread and the best Tzatziki Sauce! Not to mention the fresh tomatoes and fresh white sweet onions. Their Burgers are yummy too! As are their deserts! But...make sure you take Cash! They do NOT accept Credit cards. Highly recommend!!!! read more

I had this place bookmarked for a while, and it's not far from where I live. I think the fact that there is no dining area is what delayed my visit. I prefer eating food right after it is cooked, rather than let it cool and let it lose it's mojo on the drive home. The good news is that the food held up well on my 10 minute drive home. The fries stayed crisp, although they could have used seasoning, so I added some. The gyro meat was well-seasoned. I really enjoyed the flavor, and I didn't find it to be greasy at all. The pita bread didn't get soggy and didn't fall apart. There was a large pile of gyro meat, so I picked up the pieces of meat and dipped it in the tzatziki sauce, which was good but not great, until I could pick up the entire gyro, pita and all, and eat it. The tomatoes and onions tasted fresh, so not complaints there. Overall, not a bad option for the occassional gyro craving that I get every few months. read more

When you get more than what you paid "in more", it's a win-win situation all around. While practicing safe, social distancing, I had been cravings gyros for about 3 weeks now. I had to get one and I am super satisfied that I chose to this spot. After all, what's better after getting laundry done than to eat good. Just go though the drive thru and support a local business. Everyone be safe. And if you want to get a good gyro with immediate deliciousness, check it out ! See you all soon when we find out what our new normal is going to be.
