    BEEF & LAMB GYRO PITA
    Fay K.

    Located in a small space decked out in cute blue and white decor, Gyro City is a welcome addition to the foodie Mecca of Macdougal St. Come visit for hearty and fresh Greek food prepared with care and be served by a friendly face. It's best to preorder for pickup as cooking up your order takes time. There is a counter with a handful of bar stools to sit and eat, or you can take it to an NYU student lounge at the Kimmel Center, or Washington Square Park available to the public. Note that the eatery is not ADA accessible as there are stairs to climb for entry, and there is no customer bathroom.

    Solid gyro spot - authentic Greek gyro with French fries folded in. We tried the lamb and beef gyro. We were pleasantly surprised by how much meat was included, which made the price ($17) well worth it. The gentleman working the front was very helpful as we made our choice. He shared his favorite personalized gyro with feta and all the sauces. I'll try that next time

    Excellent chicken gyro. It's massive . I would've loved more meat and less fries in there , but I'd still say their pink signature sauce and the flavor is just right and it's a very damn near perfect gyro . Their fries were hand cut and highly addictive as well . Easily the best greek food I've had in years!

    One of the best tasting gyros. The beef and lamb gyro with tzatziki sauce is so delicious. The fries are included inside the wrap. The pita bread is huge and thick. Big portion. I couldn't finish it all. It's a small place up the stairs, but the gyro is easy to eat on the go. Nice and friendly staff.

    I enjoyed the gyro and Greek salad, good stuff. And the staff was nice. :). I'll probably do a bowl next time though.

    Not much to say except the best gyro I've had in NYC and excellent service. Very quick service. Everything is fresh.

    He offered me the beef and lamb gyro as a compromise, and I take it.

    I came here with a last minute reso I made earlier in the day and got the chef's table seating…read morewhich was really cool! I would absolutely come back to try the short rib hummus and falafel! Everything ordered was shared: Mushroom hummus (10/10) delicious Fattoush salad (9/10 really refreshing) Patata harra (9/10 great flavor but I thought they'd be crispier) Monkfish kebab (8/10 the monkfish melted in your mouth but a little spicier than expected) Knafeh dessert (9/10 I wish it was a little crispier but delish!) Orange blossom donuts (8/10 also really good but a little too sweet!)

    Food: The food is pretty good here. We walked in on a Saturday around noon without a reservation…read moreand were still able to get a table even though the place was packed. We tried the mushroom hummus, Zaa'tar fries, chicken shawarma sandwich, and Shakshouka. All of the food was delicious and well-made; I would recommend the mushroom hummus. The best part of the meal was the pita bread that comes with the hummus and also shakshouka. It was some of the best pita I've ever had; it had a nice chewy and soft texture. It came out warm and tasted so fresh. Service: Service was excellent. Staff were welcoming and friendly. They were attentive and constantly came around to fill our water. Ambiance: There is both indoor and outdoor seating. The restaurant is a good size with many tables to accommodate both large and small groups. Seating is comfortable, and the ambiance is nice. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant!

    We had a group of six drop in around 1 pm, and since it was packed, we waited about 15 minutes to…read morebe seated. Thankfully, the staff let five of us sit and start ordering while we waited for the sixth person to arrive, which I really appreciated. If you're coming with a group, I'd recommend having a few people arrive early so you can get in line while everyone else catches up, especially if someone is running behind. Our server came by quickly to check if we were ready to order, and the food came out fast despite how busy it was. Every meal was done correctly, and they were great about accommodating food restrictions. I ordered the vegan burger, and it was delicious and truly unique. I've never seen anything like it at another restaurant. Additionally, I enjoyed how they were already decorated for Valentine's Day. Maybe a little early but still nice. Overall, a good experience, especially considering how crowded it was.

    Grand Canyon is a local neighborhood institution that can easily be passed over but once you make…read moreyour first visit, it becomes an unbreakable habit. The vibe is that of a Mexican American diner, and the clientele are all clearly Brooklyn heights locals - some of which have clearly been coming here for decades. It is clearly a IYKYK spot. The menu is huge - pretty much anything you can want from a diner is on it, including a full bar. Also, the service is incredibly helpful and friendly. Even if you don't see something on the menu you can likely order it (within reason). On our first visit, we ordered the carbonara and we were hooked. How can this little spot we skipped over so many times give us such great food? Have we been missing out this whole time? From this first visit, we've ended up coming in many times during all times of day whether that was a late night dinner or hungover breakfast, Grand Canyon just hits the spot. It is not your fanciest meal, but it is comfort personified. While the carbonara is what made me fall in love with Grand Canyon (perfectly creamy and non-skimping on the crunchy bits of bacon), I've also yet to find a pulled pork sandwich as good as the one Grand Canyon puts together. I haven't left disappointed and hope this gem stays in the neighborhood forever. Long live Grand Canyon
