I decided to try the $12 lunch special, which came with fries and a drink. With tax, my total was only about $13--definitely a great deal!

For to-go orders, you can choose from bottled drinks and soft drinks. If you're dining in, they also have specialty teas and other drink options. They even offer beer for those who are interested. They also have a Buy One, Get One Free special, so definitely check out their current promotions on the Uber app. You can order for pickup or dine-in, making it super convenient. The only complaint for to go order is to make sure that the fries are made very last to avoid the fries from getting so soggy Overall, a nice lunch option, especially if you're working nearby and looking for something affordable and convenient.

Sent here and chatted with the owners for a while. Food is outstanding, much better than it was before, and very fresh. Salads are crisp and don't taste like they've been hanging out all day. The Gyro is very flavorful and not so fatty like other places. Most use Kronos Gyro's, but the meat they use simply tastes much better. Lamb here is amazing. Glad they have it. Very well cooked, very juicy and flavorful. Baklava is outstanding. Head and shoulders above others I've tried. Owners are very, very friendly and open about the business, and the restaurant itself is much cleaner and far more organized than the last. No more kitchen fights, which I suppose is a tragedy for all those entertained by the old owners but who cares, the food and friendly atmosphere is a welcome change. Will be coming here much more regularly than before, where I only went to get a quick bite to eat because better restaurants are too far. This one stands head and shoulders above those and it's close by, which is great. read more

I recently had the pleasure of trying JJ's Gyros and I cannot stop raving about it! The chicken shawarma sandwiches are absolutely delicious - bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. The meat was tender and juicy, and the combination of spices and sauces was just mouthwatering. Not only was the food amazing, but the staff at JJ's Gyros were incredibly friendly and welcoming. They took the time to explain the menu options and help me choose the perfect meal. The service was prompt and attentive, making my dining experience even more enjoyable. The atmosphere at JJ's Gyros was also great - clean and inviting with a cozy vibe. I felt right at home from the moment I walked in. I will definitely be returning to JJ's Gyros for more of their mouthwatering chicken shawarma sandwiches and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious food and exceptional service. read more

What a shocker this place was! I intended to order a Gyros but I saw a sign that said "Italian Beef" and it was a special with frys! So I thought, why not try it! It was amazing! I am from Chicago and I know what an Italian Beef Sandwich should taste like! This was as close to Chicago style beef sandwich as it gets! My husband had the Gyros and he said it was very good! It was very reasonable and delicious! I am still thinking about it and want to go back soon! The staff is very friendly and nice! This is a place to go for sure!
