    Gyro Plate split meat with a small Greek Salad 4/5 on all
    Kayleigh W.

    Inside third place books. Walk up to order. Lots of places to sit. Quick service. It's easy for a quick bite and not bad but I'll plan ahead better next time and grab something else before hitting up Vulpine.

    Replaced the BBQ spot. Now Gyro Boss (7/12/25)

    I had stopped by Lake Forest Town Center to visit both the adjacent bookstore and bakery on 7/12/25. This time I decided to check out Gyro Boss. It's been around since 2021 and seems to continue to do brisk business at their counter. Nice person at the register. I decided on the gyro sandwich to eat onsite. This was a very tasty gyro, generously filled pita with tender lamb/beef gyro meat and fresh veggies, delicious! I also I appreciated the fork provided to savor each bite. If you're having a Mediterranean food craving, whether casual dining onsite or ordered takeout, definitely stop by Gyro Boss!

    Lamb Shawarma Plate

    I got the lamb shawarma plate! It was super yummy! It was 17.99 for the plate with generous portions. The lamb was good! I enjoyed my dish! It's right next to Third Place Books. Super convenient to browse through books, then grab a bite to eat!

    Gyro Plate with chicken

    Got the hummus plate with chicken and gyro plate with chicken. Both were excellent and big portions. The people worked there were also friendly. It was my 1st time coming here and I had some trouble finding the place as there was no physical sign. It is located in the lake town center and part of the small food court next to the third place book store.

    This was so good! My friend and I got takeout and we shared a few things. We got a gyro wrap, falafel plate, and Greek fries topped with chicken. The wrap was SO good! Everything was great, somehow the fries stayed totally crispy on the drive home even with a ton of toppings. The men working were really friendly when I went up to get my order. I was surprised to find this was inside a little strip mall and I had a bit of trouble locating it so if you enter from downstairs you just need to go up the escalator.

    Loveddddddd this spot in a food hall. I loved the Chicken Shwarma sandwich and the Greek Fries were a perfect salty delight. Lots of food options, a classic Greek treat. Service was kind and fast! Gonna get the falafel and baklava next time!!!

    My brother and I have been coming here for years. The best Mediterranean food and great service. 100/10 recommend

    Half eaten gyro
    Christopher R.

    This is my first time here. With the name Gyro Boss, I had to have the basic gyro. SERVICE They were fast and friendly. Great job FOOD It was good, exactly as expected. At first I thought it looked lettuce heavy but underneath was a generous portion of meat VALUE At $10 in the Seattle area, I would say it was a good value

    Kefta Salad
    Jacques I.

    Gyro Boss is boss! It's so bomb! I discovered this place as I needed a quick dinner before an event I was attending nearby and Gyro Boss was a wonderful find. I would definitely eat here again when in the area. Gyro Boss is located inside the business strip/mall where Third Place Books is in Lake Forest Park. In fact, it's one of the eateries adjacent to Third Place Books, which works out well for anyone looking for a bite to eat before and after book browsing. It was busy because of the event, but despite how busy it was, the food came out soon after it was cooked and finished preparing. I ordered the kefta salad, which was sooo delicious! The meat had that tasty, chargrilled flavor and was tender and juicy. The salad was so fresh, and loved that it came Greek style, with more cucumbers as the base than lettuce. My friend ordered the fries with her gyro, and the fries were double dipped, which are my favorite kind of fries! Gahhh, I need to eat here again!

    Hidden in Thirds Place Books store this hidden gem is convenient and delicious. The service was quick with a good portion of food. Lots of ample seating share with other vendors in the store.

    I love this place! I've been going to Third Place Books for many years and have witnessed so many changes. It's nice to see that Gyro Boss is a mainstay! The employees are always in a good mood, professional and kind no matter how busy they get. The food has been and continues to be so delicious! I absolutely love the crew and how positive they always are and you can guarantee your food will always be yummy!

    Lake Forest Park Shwarmara! Yay! Other family members had tried Gyro Boss Mediterranean Grill recently and recommended we go there for a quick lunch so we did. We had the most pleasant encounter with the man behind the counter. I think his name was "Mo"? He was super friendly and remembered my wife and daughter from a previous visit. He comped us one lentil soup and some roasted cauliflower which was super nice. I love the lentil soup here, it's thick and flavorful. I had the Lamb & Beef Shawarma, my wife had the Chicken Shawarma and our daughter had the Falafel Salad and a couple of lentil soups. I tried a falafel and it was perfectly cooked (crispy on the outside and softer on the inside. Very similar to a hush puppy!). The shawarma plates came with a small Greek Salad and some wonderful hummus with kalamata olives and oil and the meat over some wonderful yellow rice. Sooooo yummy! The food was very tasty and super aromatic. This place is a new favorite for mine when in the area. Thanks Gyro Boss, everything was perfect!

Nick, one of the owners/family members was super helpful with helping me decide what I wanted. I ended up going with the Greek Sampler Platter and he put me on to the hummus sauce, vinaigrette, and the tzatziki sauce. All were amazing, honestly. The sampler platter was a decent sized plate. 1 huge chicken skewer, 1 beef skewer and two slices of gyro. My favorite might've been the gyro and chicken to be honest! The beef had great flavor, but had a slight chew to it. I enjoyed the Greek salad as well. Make sure to add lettuce to it, typically doesn't come with it. The meal was exactly what I was looking for and it hit the spot. That pita bread was MONEY, soft, warm, fluffy and goes great with the hummus. I WILL BE BACK!

The chicken and beef skewers, as well as the gyro meat were tender and flavorful. The pita was fresh, aromatic, and delicious especially with the side of tzatziki. Also got a beet salad to balance things out, which had a generous portion of beets in it and was also fresh. Dolmas (grape leaves) were incredible. We overheard some Greek guests chatting with the staff too, talking about how much they appreciated this place. Definitely one to put on your map if you're in the area.

Plenty of parking in the plaza. Plates can feel pricey, but quality and large portions makes it worth it. Gyro and pitas for the smaller appetites. Friendly service when taking orders, but beyond that, it's very self service with water and clearing tables. Lamb & Beef Gyro Plate - hearty lamb and beef seasoned well lay on a bed of rice. While not dry, taking bits of the tzatziki sauce with the rice and meat helps add a juicy flavor and texture. On the side is a hearty Greek salad that has a similar effect, the vegetables are super fresh and help the rest of the plate taste juicier plus adds a nice crunch on the lettuce. Overall, it's an above average plate with high quality ingredients, but not extraordinary compared to many spots here.

Today, I noticed there were new faces at the counter, and I'm not sure if there was a staff turnover. I truly hope this won't affect the service and, most importantly, the quality of the food because that's one of the reasons I keep coming back. My scheduled pickup time today was 11:10 AM. I arrived at 11:00 AM and even brought back the same bag they provided with my previous order. There were already 3 people waiting. Unfortunately, by 11:15 AM, my order was still not ready -- this is now the second time this has happened. I understand that things can get busy, but pickup times matter, especially for customers who pre-order because they have somewhere to be. I had a work meeting to attend, which is why I placed my order ahead of time. My order was finally ready at 11:30 AM -- 20 minutes after the scheduled pickup time. This delay was the main reason for my 1-star review. I also noticed that the sauce portions have gotten smaller compared to before. I hope the team can take this feedback seriously because I really enjoy the food here and would like to continue supporting this place. I just hope the consistency in service, portions, and overall experience improves.

In long Meeting an old friend for lunch, I looked for the best place that was close to halfway between us. I knew he dug Persian, but, for all the Middle Eastern and Mediterranean I've tried, this was my first venture. Safe to say I was long overdue for this exploration. 100th is pretty dense with little strip malls and mixed-use retail/residential for miles through here. A couple blocks away, you're in very leafy suburbia, but this stretch of road is 4 lanes and endless business district. BBMC is tucked on the east side of the street in a corner suite, plenty of parking. The dining room isn't much bigger than the back of most moving trucks you've loaded in your life; there's seating for maybe 20, and about 4 more on the little sidewalk patio. There's a clean and spacious washroom in back, though getting a wheelchair in there might take some doing. You get laminated menus and a carafe of water within a minute of sitting. It's not the longest menu, but evidently pretty extensive by Persian standards. We both went for grilled kebabs with basmati rice and salad. I was on duty to bring home a full serving of leftovers, so I went with the King's Choice. Great big salad, and a huge tray of rice. This is clearly designed for at least 2 to share. As it happens, that was the plan, since we're having leftovers for dinner at home. The salad has tons of fresh veg and a nice herbaceous yogurt dressing. No sauce on the meat or rice, but there's a ton of flavor from perfectly-balanced dry seasoning. The beef, ground beef, and chicken kebabs were all bursting with moisture and flavor, cooked just to perfect doneness, and showing nice little hints of grill scoring. I paid a little over $70 for what will be 3 servings of food (at least), and I haven't even tried the eggplant appetizer yet. I grabbed that to go. This place is worth many repeat visits, and I'd be in here regularly if I lived closer.
