Tanforan Mall is slowly starting to fade, as redevelopment plans solidify. But it still has a surprisingly lively food court with a good number of tasty options! Pita Gyros offers Mediterranean-inspired fare and custom pizzas, and the Appetizer Combo Plate came with hummus, tzatziki, dolmas, grilled eggplant salad (which was on the oily side), Greek salad (lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, olives, feta), and a grilled pita. Everything was tasty and made for a nice mezze spread, though expectedly from a food court stall, the salads and dips weren't particularly fresh. read more

I will go ahead and give these guys and gals a five star! I love this place. their traditional lamb gyros are fantastic. Sometimes the meat is too thin and and gets little dry when it's cooked, but that's rare. All the toppings are fresh and they make it with care and always listen to the instructions very well. I go to this place at least once a week. I have had the Chicken Shawarma twice. The first time one of the managers cooked it and gave me half of his and it was dynamite. The second time it wasn't so good. I wish that manager would show them the correct way to make one. All in all I give them a five star. read more

First time here; and Yelpers are right: solid food here. For $12.95, you can get a gyro plate with plenty of meat, on bed of rice, two pitas quartered, side shirazi salad, small container of cream and one for hot sauce. The gyro meat was moist and meaty; the pita was good and not dry. I recommend a small apple juice; I forget the price. Customer service: good and polite. Food was ready in 5 minutes. Nice job! read more

It's too loud to hear the employee. There's only one employee who works there. Having such a location like this in an empty mall. It was hard for me and the employee for what we are saying like what I want to order and she gave me the wrong items. Also they're not open for most of the times especially when it says that they're open on other websites. read more

There seems to be less people every time we go to the mall. You can sense how hard it is for the businesses. But that doesn't stop the staff from being super sweet & kind! I only got one item, the gyros fries, and it was delicious! Crunchy fries, lots of sauce, & beef (or lamb). Will try other items next time. :D read more

I've ordered from this spot twice now off of Relish for office catering, and I was pleased each time! I got a beef and lamb gyro plate the first time, which was very filling and I felt like it was good value for the price. This time I ordered a beef and lamb wrap, and it was oddly delicious considering the wrap was thin and not the pita bread I was expecting. Looking at other photos and that's the norm. It's giving burrito and I'm oddly ok with this. Overall, I would order this again! read more

Pita Gyros - Beef Lamb and Beef Pita Gyro no tomato - Mediterranean Near Me - San Bruno, California

Food is NOT freshly made. They serve what's been sitting / heated over night. Also refuses to give you cup of water. Probably why no one was at this place during lunch when other places had lines of people read more

Pita Gyros is the first Eatery in the food court you'll see when walking into Tanforan on the Bart side of the mall. I walked around the entire food court and this place called to me. It's something different. All that being said, how was it? The employees working here were really friendly and helpful when I was trying to figure out what to order. I decided on the lamb and beef wrap and Greek fries. About ten minutes pass by and I received my food. They do not skimp on portion size. The wrap was gut busting sized tube of joy, filled with vegetables, lamb, beef, and yogurt sauce. The Greek fries was a huge sharable portion of fries covered in parmensan. I thought everything was decent flavor-wise and I definitely got my money's worth quantity-wise. Pita Gyros is a solid option in Tanforan for a quick meal. read more

Very grateful that they take pride in treating customers cordially, professionally and leaving us with a lasting memory of flavorful food to return here again. read more

Gyro was bland and for the price. I was craving gyro and had high hopes for this place but was disappointed.

I decided to try this place out instead of getting my usual Panda Express. I was pretty disappointed! I ordered the chicken kebob plate with a scoop of hummus for $1 extra. The kebob was cooked fresh on the grill, but was a bit dry and seasoned minimally. The hummus seemed like it was watered down. It was very thin and seemed to not have enough chick peas and was bland as well! The pita was just ok and nothing special. The side salad lacked seasoning as well! The rice seemed to be uncle bens brand and most likely from a microwave. I will most certainly not be returning! I would not recommend this place to anyone ! read more

Pita Gyros - Chicken Kebab Plate - Mediterranean Near Me - San Bruno, California

I'll give it one star because the workers seemed nice but this food was terrible. This is the first time I threw away an entire meal after a few bites. I got the chicken kebab plate and it seems like they forgot to season everything- the chicken and the rice. I can't find the words to accurately describe how gross it was or figure out what they did to make it so bad. Zero flavor. I also got a side of dolmas and it's the worst I've even had- dry leaves, hard + dry filling. I'm shocked at how bad this was. Waste of $20. read more

One star for the decent price. Ordered Parmesan and lemon pepper wings, combo gyro, and parm fries. All lacked flavor. I really wanted to give them a chance and have another option in the area. read more

We don't live nearby but come to Tanforan once in awhile and this is our stop of choice for food in the mall. We only ever order two items from the menu but they're solid every time: lamb/beef wrap & the appetizer combo. My 2 year olds love the eggplant salad and the pita with hummus. Not too salty (always my pet peeve). We like to get gyros everywhere and this place has always been repeatable. read more

This is the worst kebab in the world.I rarely leave bad review but I just can not wait one sec half way through this meal. First off, the beef kebab is sooo overcooked that can barely be chewed off. My jaw almost fall off but the beef is still good as one piece of Shxt. My cheek is still sore until now. Honestly I stood there and watched them cooking the kebab, waited for a long time only to get this one hundred year old chewy af beef. Needless to say the flavor there is no flavor from the beginning. Apart from that there is nothing more left to eat, the yogurt sauce is sour-in a bad way, I can tell it just went bad. The only eatable thing is perhaps the pita and rice, but WTH that I paid $14 for the carbs? My poor miserable dinner, now this whole plate went to trash for good. Btw all the pita express food I had before have more selection and add ons than this poor place. If you want some decent Mediterranean food pls go anywhere else. If you happen to walk into Tanforan then just go to chipotle right across, lower price for better quality to tell you the truth. Better not open a restaurant if you don't know how to cook. read more

Pita Gyros - Beef Kebab Plate - Mediterranean Near Me - San Bruno, California

Terrible service. The cashier was nice, but she messed up my order and it took 35 minutes to get my food. She said she misheard me when I asked for a side of fries. She was not rude about. But even after having to wait that long just for 10pc wings, she refused to give me fries even though she messed up and misheard me. Wings were good but not worth that wait. read more

Got the lamb and beef rice gyro plate, and it was great! Tender beef/lamb, white sauce was decent, and with a tiny container of hot sauce. The rice tasted like the elementary school super light brown color texture. Pretty value for mall food. read more

This place was pretty okay! I got the salmon kebab ($10.95) and it came with rice, salad, and pita with tzatziki sauce. The salmon was cooked pretty well. It wasn't too dry but it lacked some flavor. There were some pieces that were more marinated than others. I thought it was OK. The pita was warm but is not homemade. The tzatziki sauce also lacked some flavor ---perhaps it needed more lemon or dill or something? It was still good but just lacked flavor. I did enjoy the rice and the salad! The salad was very refreshing and contained cucumber, tomato, lemon and parsley. The rice is simple rice, but it paired well with the salmon dish. The service was great. I would probably try their other kebabs or pitas. Their pizzas looked good as well. However, I wasn't a huge fan of the salmon (and I LOVE salmon). read more

I'm Sorry, the service is good but the portions shouldnt pass. I ordered the beef kabob plate, $13 after tax and the portion does not pass, does not help that both the beef and rice are dry. I shouldve waited in line next door to Sakuru as i originally planned. read more

Horrible customer service. And the food is bland. The whole mall is busy and they don't have a customer. My gut told me to avoid and I wish I would have. read more

Spent $18 on wings and a side of fries. Asked for a cup of water and they said 'no' and said I could buy a bottle of water. Greedy!

Good eats, enjoyed the pizza, very cheesy, recommend this place, has fast and good service.

Came here at 11:30a on a weekday. Ordered a lamb/beef gyro plate and a gyro salad. (Photo is of the salad). Only difference between the two is the plate has rice, and the salad essentially had a double portion of salad instead of rice. Pros: * salad was fresh. Romaine base and a good amount of chopped cucumbers, tomatoes, red onion, parsley. Vinaigrette not overpowering. Crunchy and surprisingly good for a mall salad. * serviceable tzatziki * soft fluffy pita Cons: * I got there right as they were putting in the gyro meat on the rotisserie and it looked like they took our gyro meat from a steam table. It tasted pretty dry and old as a result. I assume if it were freshly shaved off the spit it would be better. It was on the salty side, even for gyro meat * rice on the gyro plate was unseasoned and bland. Plus the already-dry gyro meat, and only a tiny cup of tzatiki, it made me regret ordering the plate for my husband instead of just getting two salad plates I may try it again when the gyro meat is obviously fresh to give it a second try. I was impressed that for mall food, the salad had more than just limp romaine. Ideally the pita should be toasted a bit but I understand time limitations since it's just mall fast food. For the price and portions, i think they should add a little cup of hummus to dip the pita as that would round out the meal more, especially with how unappealing the rice was. read more

Pita Gyros - Gyro salad ($9.95) - Mediterranean Near Me - San Bruno, California

Being honest, I've been coming to Tanforan for a while now and I never tried it.. when I did, the staff weren't very polite which I never usually include in yelp reviews. The food on the other hand, was mid. read more

Update - the owner DMed me. He wasn't amused by my Indian food analogy and decided to insult my face. So let me clarify: when I said the food here lacked flavor, I was comparing it to literally every other Mediterranean joint I've tried - the two carts on Market Street, the expanding shop on Drumm Street, a list of restaurants in SF, Fremont, San Carlos, Burlingame, etc, and chains like the Halal Guys. There you have it. Take it or leave it, but my personal opinion is that it's the worst Mediterranean food. The owner also wants me to add that it wasn't just the pita and gyro that lacked flavor, but also the chicken and rice. Thanks for reading! My problem with Mediterranean food in the US is that it has such a wide range, and this place tips on the end I really do not like. Like the airport Panda Express of Chinese food and the office catered Indian food, Pita Gyros is tasteless. I'm sorry to say this. I wanted to love it but I don't. Even dumping all the little chili sauce that they gave me on the food it was still not enough. Pita was dry and gyros tasted as much like tofu as it did lamb. I've had half cooked plain basmati rice that was more flavorful than their gyro. If you're hungry and need a bite from this food court, fine. If you want respectable Mediterranean cuisine this place is not for you. read more

Dont stare at people while they are eating, its rude. Take one bite look up and they turn their heads, take another bite they do the same again. Not my fault you work a boring minimum wage job Lol read more

Honestly, I never would have expected to eat pizza at Pita Gyros because 1. Pizza at a Mediterranean spot didn't make much sense to me and 2. I didn't think it would be good. But not having many options at the time and craving pizza, I'm glad I decided to give it a shot. I'm not sure about anyone else, but I had a fairly good experience here. The pizzas only come in personal size, similar to Pieology or Blaze Pizza, where you have your custom-built pizza. You are given different sauce options and you can choose your toppings (they've got typical pizza toppings). You can either get two meat toppings or one meat topping and as many vegetable toppings as you want. I decided to go with pepperoni and all the vegetable toppings that were offered. The pizza was surprisingly decent. The crust could have used a bit more flavor, but being that this place is located in a mall, I didn't have high expectations. Sure, Pita Gyros isn't a pizza joint in North Beach, but this place had pretty decent pizza especially for not having 'pizza' in their name, lol..And for also being in a food court. So considering this is more in the fast-food category, it's not bad at all. I like that the pizza was made fresh and the service was great. Pretty good food court option at Tanforan. read more

For a mall stand, this is pretty good food. Of course, it's not any five star restaurant quality, but it's still impressive for the price, the placement and the time it takes to make. The tzatziki wasn't all that flavorful, and while the sandwich wasn't the best Gyro I've ever had, it was better than some. This review is basically just me circling around on myself so here's my overall feel. It's good for a quick bite, but that's about it. read more

I like Mediterranean food (especially cheap) so I tried this place and wasn't disappointed! It's in the mall so it was kind of packed, but the food was great. I tried the chicken kebab plate (comes with rice, salad, and bread) and it tasted just like authentic from a restaurant. I noticed a lot of menu items I'd like to try, so hopefully I'll be able to sample them all. read more

I love their chicken pita. It is delicious. Also they sell best fresh yummy pizza that my kids love. You order pizza and you can put whatever you want on it. I usually get cheese and chicken pizza for my picky kids and they never leave a piece. Really good. And their meat is halal which is a great bonus. You can get free water of course. And the service is nice. read more

Pita Gyros - Chicken spinach onion pizza - Mediterranean Near Me - San Bruno, California

Pretty good! I ordered the beef/lamb pita which was HUGE. Enough for two meals for me. Everything was great - pita was soft, salad was tasty, meat was flavorful and tender, and the sauces were the cherry on top. My bf ordered the chicken kebab plate which he enjoyed, except he said the rice was bland. Soft and fluffy, but lacked flavor. It wasn't a big deal to him though since the pitas were good. We were pleasantly surprised of the portions and quality considering the price and the fact that its mall food! I would def be coming back to try other items! read more

This place is sort of a hidden gem. All though it's inside the food court, they make everything fresh and cooked to order. I ordered the chicken kebab and it was honestly the best I've had in the Bay area. Their hummus is amazing as well. Can't wait to try more of their food. read more

Was in town for a movie, saw that they offer Halal meats for chicken, lamb, and beef. Kids got cheese pizza that they enjoyed. We got a gyro, I prefer the chicken...needs some more hot sauce like The Other places, but the veggies were fresh and pizza cooked well. Price is kinda high for a small pizza, at $9.99? What up with that! read more

Food is good but have had bad experiences multiple times .. workers didn't change their gloves after taking our money and scratching their hair before making our food . When we said something to them they got mad and argued they changed their gloves when we watched them the whole time. Second time we asked for no sauce because we don't eat dairy, we saw before they closed it and they made new ones right away. Upon finishing this remade pita wrap, I noticed green dots on the bread. Not sure if it was mold or not as there are no green veggies in it that would bleed it's color. Food is tasty but keep might want to keep your eyes out. read more

Best service and a wide selection of food! My favorite is the lamb here, always fresh and always satisfying. The team at Pita Gyros provides me with endless selection and I know I could create a new meal every time I come here. I love having the option of canned soda and fountain soda, because sometimes you need refills and sometimes you just want the joyful taste of canned soda. Anyway if you don't know what to get, grab the Combo Plate and you'll be fine. read more

Gyro meat was cut so thick and so much "salad" was on the pita that I did not really enjoy it all and threw 90% in the garbage. More is not always better. read more

Pita Gyros - Cold & thick lamb / beef gyro meat. - not to my liking. - Mediterranean Near Me - San Bruno, California

Not a fan of mall food usually, but we were in a rush and starving. This is a great place to find something relatively healthy amidst the other typical mall options. We had a lamb and beef gyro pita and lamb and beef gyro plate. They're pretty much the same thing except the plate comes with rice. While the gyro isn't freshly cut the way traditional places do it, it was really good. Both come with a nice salad with lots of veggies. If you like some heat, I recommend their hot sauce. They'll give you a small side of it that goes great with the meat. read more
