In addition to the gyros, fries, and salad, I've also been ordering the hummus. It's some of the best I've had in Houston! I like the chicken gyro but the regular one is far superior. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I don't think there's any way to improve on this place--it's the epitome of a hole in the wall--divey, affordable, consistent, and incredibly delicious![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Consistently good food. Owner is interesting. Lol Took Bigs for burgers and fries. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was a little warm in the restaurant this time.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Burgers are huge, so we ordered 2 and large basket of fries to share between 3 of us. Fries are made in house. So good. Food is fresh and made to order. I went back for another visit and grabbed a chicken gyro plate which came with salad & fries. Prices are fair for the amount of food. read more

Incredible hole in the wall gyro restaurant. This is some of the best gyro I've had in the city and I'm so happy to find out it's near where I live. The gyro is cooked and flavored so well. Usually French fries are underwhelming at gyro restaurants for me but here they're amazing. I love that they have the skin on and they're so crispy! read more

Small Mom and Pop no frills place that has been in the a neighborhood for decades with as good a gyro as any of the fancier Mediterranean restaurants. Their falafel is amazing.

Gyros & Shish Kabob - Gyros Sandwich Lunch Special - Greek Near Me - Houston, Texas

First off, idk why o wanted a gyro for dinner but I did. Secondly, the only other gyro I've eaten is at the mall. Third of all, I had some hesitation to pick gyros for dinner. BUT this place is awesome. Price is fair, I got the gyro plate with a salad and fries. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is very clean![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And the service is top notch. Very friendly. The menu isn't very big, but it has what you need. Wife got the chicken gyro, it was amazing. The side salad was great. The fries needed some salt, which I added at the table, but fried well. I will absolutely come back. This was the perfect dinner. Filling but not greasy. The salad added a side of tang to add some dimension. It just hit the spot. My kid was loving the hummus too. read more

Gyros & Shish Kabob - Gyros plate - Greek Near Me - Houston, Texas

I have been coming over to this place for my gyros since I was a kid. Every single time I go the food is consistently good. Never had a problem with my order. I have tried other gyros but this one is the best gyros I have ever had. The fries are hand cut and come out hot and crispy. The gyro plate comes with the gyro, fries or a salad and a drink. Very reasonable prices considering the portion of food that you get. It is a mom and pop restaurant and the owner interacts with his customers. 10/10 I recommend. I will definitely be back! read more

Gyro AND Philly cheesecake were delicious. I can't believe it's been eight years since I've been back.

The meat was good, and there was plenty of it, and I liked the tomatoes. Also, the guy there was a pretty cool dude. read more

If you're looking for a quick bite this place is where you need to visit if you're wanting to eat something different than the local fast food in this area!! People are friendly restaurant is cozy and quiet. I eat lunch here and This Old House is playing on the television in the corner. The menu is easy to read food is always hot and you get a bottled drink with the special. Today In the photos I ordered a lamb gyro with salad and added dolmades. I'm never disappointed with the food here.. read more

This is a small mom n pop Mediterranean café located very near to my neighborhood. I have had food from them before mostly carry-out, but never got a chance to leave them a review. This last visit, I ordered a Gyro plate which came with french fries and a small side salad. The sandwich was pretty good. It had a generous portion of meat and came with all the fixings in the sandwich. The French fries were hot and crispy and golden brown and a great compliment to the sandwich. The salad was also good. It just had too much dressing drenched in it. In the past, I have also ordered their Philly cheesesteak sandwich, which is also very good and comes with a handful of fries. I will visit them soon again. read more

Gyros & Shish Kabob - Gyros Plate - Greek Near Me - Houston, Texas

This gives me a hole in the wall feeling with limited decor and just straight to the point food. The gyro sandwich is just meat, tomatoes, onions, & sauce. Nothing else if that's what you want. Eating just that will most likely still make you hungry, although you can go with the combo which includes fries and a drink. read more

Gyros & Shish Kabob - Gyros Sandwich - Greek Near Me - Houston, Texas

Service was great and the food was excellent! I drove here just to get lunch and my trip was well worth the effort.

This is one of the best gyro joints in the whole Houston metro. Hidden gem for sure. The chicken gyro had a very similar flavor to an authentic pork gyro I had in Oia, Greece read more

Clean environment. I enjoy the fries here so good. The chicken gyro is all I've tried thus far. Good customer service.

Super great tasting food. Mom and pop's usually are! Chicken shawarma was very tasty. I ordered their chicken shawarma plate but basically received the chicken shawarma gyro with fries and a greek salad. Kind of disappointed simply because I was charged over $10 for this plate. I would recommend coming solely if you want a gyro. Fries are good! Everything with the taste of their food was spot on, except for the actual order that I paid for. Thus, I give this rating a 4 stars. read more

Awful chicken and beef koobideh. Neither tasted like chicken or beef. No typical accompaniments to the dish.

Yes this was some good Gyro! Due to COVID-19 and before they were able to open, I just did a togo order. I called in advance and when I got there the order was ready to go. the Gyro was excellent, great flavor and fresh. The people were very nice. I do plan on visiting again when I can dine in. As you can see parking not an issue it is in a strip center. Small mom and pop place. I do recommend. Go check it out if you like Gyros read more

Gyros & Shish Kabob - Greek Near Me - Houston, Texas

G & S could mean many things. Gary & Sinise. Go & Stay. Gwen & Stefani. Greek & Sexy. Gene & Simmons. Gertrude & Stein. Golden & Shower. But Gyro & Shish is tastier than them all. Even that last one. I know Gyros well, and can tell you the best spots in all the Gyro-heavy regions to enjoy them. Gyro World (Queens NYC), Yia Yia's (DC-MD), Oakland (Milwaukee), lots of places in Chicago, Nick's in Atlanta. Well now you can add Gyros & Shish Kabob to the list. It's the best Gyro in Houston. People who rate it low because "it's pretty run down" don't really get Gyros. They're supposed to be holes in walls. They're supposed to be run down. If you go to Chicago - the city that invented *this* type of Gyro (aka Chicago-style Gyro), all the best ones are at holes-in-walls. Even back in Athens (original Athens-style Gyros), you'll find the same. But no more technicalities. I will let LFO and their "Girls Of Summer" tell you about the wonders of this place. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHuGG_FsC20 New Kids On The Block had a bunch of hits Good Greek food makes me tick And I think it's fly when girls stop by For a Gyro, for a Gyro I like girls that go with me to Gyro & Shish I'd take her if I had one wish But she got married to her hero... (Bob DeNiro) The SITREP as my broseph Michaelangelo in Sac-town would say: (aka tl;dr) - There's nothing sketchy about this humble, unassuming little place. Psh. - The best in town along with Ekko. Lovely Greek salad, wonderful chicken Gyro, great service. - Speaking of great service, are you free later. If you wanna run your mouth off about this not being the best Gyro in town, you'd better SHISH because GYROnly embarrassing yourself. It's my favourite Gyro and Chicken Gyro in the Houston area, with Ekko's only very narrowly behind. But both are among the tastiest and best value in the country, and certainly in this region. And the guy that owns it is an absolute sweetheart, too. (bats lashes) I can't really choose between this place and Ekko, because while I like G & S a tiny bit more (sometimes), I like the salad at Ekko a bit better, and Ekko is 10 mins from my house while G & S is 30 mins or more in traffic. So I always end up at Ekko, to save time. I don't have much reason to be out by Hwy 6 most of the time. Unless you wanna give me a reason, big boy. But in many ways, while Ekko gets more kudos, G & S may be superior. The prices are even better than Ekko and the service is much better. In terms of quality they are both astronomically amazing. Whether you get the regular Gyro or the chicken Gyro you will be in heaven. They have truly wonderful food here and pretty nice salad too. Sadly... Not nearly as busy as they should be, but I guess for now they will remain a Hidden Gem and the joint best Gyro in the region... and one of the very tastiest in the country.

I've been coming here for the last 25 years (and even earlier in utero!) Greatest Gyro place I've ever had. I don't live in town anymore, but I will make the drive for his gyros. Feels like home when you walk in; just a great place to eat and the best gyros you'll ever have. Cannot recommend this place enough read more

Always a favorite! My husband and I have been coming here for nearly 30 years. Fresh and delicious gyros & the best fries. We also can't get enough of the sauce! read more

Gyros & Shish Kabob - Lunch special - gyro, fries and a drink. - Greek Near Me - Houston, Texas

I've been going here since I was a kid and it has not changed! This is by far my most favorite gyro place to eat at. The food is excellent. I wish I still lived close enough to go more often than I do, but when I can, I definitely try to stop by. :) read more

This has been my Gyros Spot for over 30 years! Same owner and same great food all these years! Food is always fresh and consistent. When you get the urge to have something different, and are tired of burgers and other fast foods, head to gyros, you will not be disappointed! read more

Excellent food and great service. Have been going here for years and it never disappoints. Give them a try if you are in the area.

I love the quality of all the gyro options here. Their lunch special is a great value that ends at 3. It gives you a gyro, fries or salad & a drink for an amazing price. The owner of this establishment is extremely welcoming & engaging! read more

This is one of my favorite local Greek food spots! The lamb gyros are always freshly made to order, piping hot and delicious! The pita bread is always full of meat, they do not skimp. The lamb gyro meat seasoning is what you would traditionally expect. The tzatziki sauce is a must, don't skip out on getting that! You HAVE to order the fries with your meal! These are some of the best house made fries because they are always hot and crispy. Again, you can't beat made to order food! I'm not sure if you can eat inside yet. The last few times we just order the food to-go and then they tell you how long it will be before the order is ready. Once you arrive, you call them and they'll let you in to pay for and pickup your order. They offer great service, even during these difficult times. I'll always order my gyros from here. read more

Okay, the lone worker, a woman, is looking at me quite strangely as I walk through the door. Why such a strange look? This is a restaurant right? You do know what a customer is right? Odd reaction...what, let me think...simple question should solve this mystery. "Are you open mam?" I asked. She replied "No. We open at 11am." Oops! Mystery solved! Come back a half of hour later! Got you. I'm back and ready to order. Lunch special it is. Gyro, fries & drink for $7.78 including tax. Awesome. Wait, you are speaking Spanish! Where are the Greek personnel? Takes away from the cultural feel, but whatever. Make mine to go. Menu...kind of skimpy, but that should be a good thing because people will not take forever ordering. Not the case for me because I was the first and only person in the place! I walked in before opening and at the opening! Food out quickly...that is a good sign. What is up with that old school t.v. in the back left corner of the place? That is neither here or there. Okay, I opted to get the Greek salad instead of the fries...eat "healthy" even when eating bad! The salad was not bad at all. I have one suggestion to make it a little better...just one minor suggestion. Maybe I am too picky, but the suggestion just may make sense to you. If you are going to use olives in a Greek salad, which I am certain you will do, then use seedless olives! I think that is the best move for that. I am sure no one wants to hear about my salad. The gyro...maybe because I am a big guy, I was expecting a bigger sandwich?!? I must admit however, they placed plenty of meat on that little flat bread. The meat was seasoned well, and all in all, and enjoyable experience. Do I think the meal is worth almost $8...not really, but for an occasional tasty treat to myself, I will shell out that for a good gyro. This place is worth doing at least once. read more

If I have a gyro (yee-row) craving, I always come here to indulge. Its location isn't in the prettiest but don't be fooled. It is a mom and pop type of establishment that may need some finer furnishings. It is comparable to Niko Niko's in my opinion. It probably took a good 10 minutes before I got my food. Gyro (4/5) meat is crispy on the edges without being dry. There is a lot of meat stuffed in the pita bread... To the point where I had a few meat slices fall out. Fries were freshly cut, and the Greek salad is pretty good. I just wished they cut the olives into pieces. Pita bread is soft with ample amounts of tzatziki sauce and onions. Everything was seasoned well. If you are to-going your order, then ask for them to separate the salad from the fries and gyro. For my recent trip here, I decided to to-go my order without separating the salad. I came home with a soggy pita bread. Bleh. Menu is pretty limited, but there are only two workers at Gyros & Shish Kabob. Lunch special with a drink and gyro platter costs $7.99, 11 AM - 3 PM. It is 5% off when you pay in cash. In conclusion, great value for the money. If you're looking for gyros, this place is it! read more

Gyros & Shish Kabob - Gyro Platter (To Go) - Greek Near Me - Houston, Texas

Visited this location for our weekly date night off of the recommendation of another yelper. This particular part of town has a few Mediterranean options within a few miles of each other. We were in the mood for gyro and had already recently visited Mannys which was up the street. This location is very easy to miss off of Highway six. It is in a very trashy looking shopping center and I almost missed it because the sign was not very prevalent. Walking inside you can definitely tell that this is a mom and pop type of establishment. There was a gentleman in the front who took our order who we told we came here from Yelp and that we heard he was better then Mannys. He immediately told us that his food is way better but I'm a tough critic when it comes to good Mediterranean food. Their menu options were very limited and they did not have a highchair for our daughter. We ordered the gyro and were ready to pay for it. What was interesting is that when we told him we were paying with cash I saw our total immediately adjusted. I scratched my head and asked him do you charge more if you use a credit card? He nodded his head quickly and changed the subject. I hate when businesses charge more when you use a credit card versus cash. That is a violation of the terms of their credit card machine contract. Because they are charged that surcharge for the convenience of offering their patrons the ability to use a card instead of cash but that surcharge is not supposed to be passed on to the consumer. Our food came out within 10 minutes and the french fries looked a bit on the greasy side but were very good. The gyro was a nice size but it could've had more lamb meat. All in all we may try the chicken Gyro if we come back but I give this place 1 1/2 thumbs up out of 2. I think Mannys has this place beat if you were looking for gyros that are nice portion and the restaurant is much cleaner and less seedy looking than this place read more

First visit I would have given five stars if it wasn't for the wait, but I probably deserved it. I got there at 19:30 and they continued to serve the steady stream people well after 20:00; which is their closing time. Falafel sandwich was massive! They put a lotta falafel on their sandwich, with lettuce, tomato, and homemade tzatziki sauce. I am sure their falafel is homemade and fresh, but I didn't ask. French fries were great too. read more
