    Chicken souvlaki and grilled chicken w. Lemon Potatoes
    Jewel M.

    Good food, but they cannot get your order right!! Just ridiculous and disappointing!!

    The Gyros are amazing favorite food that hold your through. The service is fast and customer service.. nice spot.

    Chicken Gyro Sandwich
    Tanya K.

    Hubby and I were in the neighborhood and I was absolutely starving and could not fathom traveling home and still having to cook dinner before being able to eat. Yelp searched some spots in the area, Gyro Grill food looked great - we're in. It's a no frills restaurant with indoor/outdoor seating but mostly people ordering take out (from what I noticed in the two times I've been there). Cashier/cooks are speedy and get your order out our within 10 minutes. Hubby got their chicken gyro sandwich and I got the chicken souvlaki platter. Chicken gyro comes absolutely STACKED. The chicken souvlaki platter was kindaaaa dry but a squeeze of lemon and side of tzatziki quickly remedies that. First time I paid $2 extra for their grilled veggies, second time I got their mixed vegetables (baked) which I actually prefer and is included in the platter price. We also got their spinach pie. It's probably one of the best I've had (like better than the ones I've been getting at a Mediterranean bakery). Their phyllo dough is soooo flaky and there's no soggy bits. Definitely found my new fave spot and will be trying their other menu items soon!

    Octopus octopus octopus!!!! Love octopus, even Taverna Kyclades doesn't have octopus like this, although I didn't go there recently, but Gyro Grill's is amazing!! It needs extra virgin alive oil, touch of black pepper. Came here right before closing, didn't have enough time to take pics, will definitely next time. Gyro sandwich is well worth it. Fries, salad was also good. Spanakopita is a must. This place reminds me the Opa Opa used to be in Astoria, miss that place under the train station. Will definitely come back

    Spinach Pie Plate
    Lesley O.

    I really enjoyed the spinach pie plate a lot! The spinach pie has just the right amount of the feta and the phyllo dough is so light and airy but has a lovely crisp too! When ordering the plate, you can choose a salad option (there are few, like garden, Caesar, etc), and a side like the lemon potatoes I chose, but they have veggies, rice, etc as options. I wish they gave a side of tzatziki for the spinach pie so you don't have to pay for a typical item that comes with a spinach pie, in my opinion but the tzatziki was so good, I'll even get the larger size next time.

    Baklava

    One of the best Mediterranean restaurants I've ever tried. They are very welcoming and cordial. Food will be prepared in front of you, yes, you got it, like live kitchen!! Specious seating arrangement both indoor and outdoor. Street parking is available. They do catering and delivery also. You can mix and match from their wide variety of options. Don't forget to try their lamb items and baklava!! Highly recommended for everyone. You'll thank me later

    Recommended by a friend and was not disappointed. Ordinary store front but once inside, my mouth couldn't stop drooling. We ordered a beef gyro and pork souvlaki sandwich and let me tell you, both absolutely fresh and juicy, it's no wonder so many were waiting for their order. Definitely a must visit if you in the area. I know I can't wait to go back. This time I was so anxious to eat and I forgot to take pictures of the sandwiches lol.

Came with some friends for lunch. We all got various combinations of the mixed plate and an order of fried calamari. The calamari was lightly breaded in a flaky batter that brought out the flavors of the squid. Cooked to perfection it was tender, not chewy. As for the mixed platters, we had lamb gyro and the souvlakis as well as the lemon potatoes and fries. The lemon potatoes were perfectly seasoned and had a nice tartness to each bite. The lamb gyro was tender. The chicken souvlaki being moist and flavorful is the barometer for the level of detail that goes into every plate served.

After our visit, I was left lamenting "why did we wait so long to come here?". We came in early on a Monday, before 6:00 and the place already had several tables full. We received a warm Turkish welcome and quickly settled in with menus. Our quick bit turned into mixed appetizer (hummus, babaghanoush, muhmmara, haydari and pink sultan), followed by sigara borek and lamacun. Everything was so good that we overate! I was full after the mezzes but the lamacun was so good...among the best we've had in the NYC area. Service was great too. Just a nice vibe with the friendly owners stopping by each table and saying hello. It was clear there were many regulars eating here and we anticipate more visits ourselves. They have some nice images of Istanbul on the wall and we were just in Turkey a few weeks ago so it felt like we were back there! This place is really a gem and I highly recommend it. Just make sure you bring your appetite because you will fill up when you eat here!

We ordered the octopus and lamb chops. The octopus was incredibly tender, the meat was very soft - I personally would've preferred a little more bite to it, but it still tasted good. The lamb chops were flavorful. The medium here is on par with medium rare at most other places, and one of our pieces was borderline rare. At the end of the meal we were also offered complementary desert, which was a pleasant surprise. We enjoyed our meal overall, but just know that it's a little on the pricey. The octopus and lamb chops came out to $80~ pre-tax and tip. Would recommend if you're a fan of seafood!

It was pretty quiet inside, outside of the TV playing somewhat loud highlights from the World Cup on loop (why,) with the servers and staff being helpful and friendly. In comparison to the other pick-your-own seafood spots like AbuQir or Hamido, the spices are a tad lighter here, being almost closer to Astoria Seafood, minus the olive oil. I didn't mind, though, as the fish was all fresh and perfectly prepared. To drink, our table stuck with water, though there are a few mocktails and some sodas, including some Algerian ones. They put down some simple bread with a bit of garlic and herbs, which was refilled. For non-seafood dishes, we had a few. The first was the $8 Hmiss, or Hammis, a dip made with roasted pepper, tomato, and garlic sautéed in olive oil. The warm dish was earthy and garlicky, and went perfectly with the bread, with the flavor reminding me of a warmer version of some Turkish eggplant dips. There was also the Peasant Salad for $12, with cucumber, tomato, red onion, and Kalamata olives topped with feta, oregano, and dill. If you're familiar at all with Horiatiki/Village salad, it's basically the same thing, though with crumbled feta instead of a block, and it was refreshing and tasty. Finally, we eventually got an $8 side order of Basil Garlic Mashed Potatoes, which were decent. The first seafood to arrive at the table was the $16.99 Algerian Sardines, which consisted of sardines from Morocco with a spice mixture. The man in front recommended them fried, and the portion was nice, and the flavor was excellent. The fish was fried perfectly, with the bones fried enough that the entirety of it could be eaten. This was delicious, and one of the highlights of the meal. As we loved these sardines, we eventually got a small order of the other option, the "Marinated Sardines" from Spain. These were a bit more expensive by weight, being $10.56 for 0.48 pounds, but by comparison, these were much flatter and larger. The half pound consisted of three large pieces, which were broken down and divided among the group. While I slightly preferred the spices from the Algerian version, I liked the texture of these more, as they were more meaty. I don't think you can go wrong with either, as both were excellent. There was also one pound of Mussels for $17.99, which was available in one of two cooking preparations, Moules Marinière or a version with tomato sauce, herbs, and feta. I went with the latter, and they were excellent, with all of the mussels being open. The feta added a unique, slightly salty touch, with the broth being delicious. They had brought us out some extra bread, and we made good use of it. If I were here alone, I might have this along with some sardines and leave very happy. We also got two whole fish, which were both ordered grilled and butterflied. First was the Dorado, or Orata, for $29.24 for 1.54 pounds. As is typical for this fish, it was delicate and light, but had plenty of flavor. The other was the American Red Snapper, which was a bit more expensive at $37.90 for 1.58 pounds. By comparison, this fish was a lot thicker and therefore, a bit more flavorful. We enjoyed both, with a slight preference going towards the cheaper fish for most outside of me and one other. Another highlight was the Scallops for $37.23 for 0.98 pounds, which came out to 14 large pieces. As recommended, we got these sautéed, with the scallops coming in a delicious garlicky juice on the bottom with plenty of other herbs. The scallops were tender while staying plump, though I slightly preferred the more caramelized tops at AbuQir, with these having a more uniform texture. The rest of the people liked what I couldn't eat, the $24.99 Octopus for around half a pound. The octopus came out pre-cut, which made splitting it very easy. I can't comment much on the flavor or saltiness as some other reviewers brought up, or else I'd be in the hospital right now post-anaphylaxis, but people liked it a lot. If you don't want to bother with the lines or crowds at the other fish spots, I would highly recommend going here. The fish is fresh, perfectly prepared, and seasoned just enough to highlight the natural flavors. I would go back.

The chairs were a little rickety and the bathroom door would not lock. Food was pretty good though. Complimentary bread is provided with free refills. The eggplant dip was good and garlicky. The fried calamari had a light breading and was delicious with the two dips (no marinara though). I wasn't fond of the grilled shrimp as the char made it slightly bitter. Sauteed might have been a better choice. The grilled branzino was light, delicious and slightly garlicky. The sauteed scallops were delicious and were my favorite. It was cooked perfectly tender with a delicious sauce. The rice was nicely flavored and a good side dish for the meal. I preferred this to Hamido's except for the grilled shrimp and bread. The seasoning is lighter than Hamido's (which can be overly salty) but I think it compliments the seafood better.
