You can tell that they put a lot of effort into their dishes and customer service. I always get the chicken shawarma wrap with hummus and it is delicious. All of the food is so fresh! If you are a Diet Coke lover, their DC is crispy (IYKYK). I even love their baklava. The restaurant is very clean and they have a great seating area. I think the pricing is fair because the portions are a great size! I always have leftovers for lunch the next day. I will continue to support this business!!

I'd give this restaurant a solid 3 stars. The food was beautifully presented and full of flavor. As…read moremy 8 year old would say, it was bussin'! However, I do have to mention the bathroom situation. My son went to use the restroom, and the doorknob was broken which is a little unsettling, especially for a kid. When I went to the ladies room, it was unfortunately pretty dirty, which definitely took away from the overall experience. I don't want to take away from the food and kitchen staff, but if we're factoring in the whole experience including cleanliness, that restroom situation needs attention. Also, between both of our meals, I spent $50.46. That feels a little pricey for a quick lunch.

One employee witnessed the accident and offered his help. My husband and I are truly grateful. The food is fresh and delicious! And portions are more than enough.

Order taken quickly at the counter: gyro wrap w/side of yellow rice, an order of Dolmas (8) and a soda. With tax & tip $34.88. Sat at a booth type table for comfort, only to discover we had to tip toe around the messy floor and I kicked away a ball of something rather than squish it. Husband said wrap was tasty but didn't remember they use a wrap instead of a pita for the gyro sandwich. (I had the gyro on our last visit.) Rice was good. My dolmas, however, were gross. I don't dip them in tzatziki, I typically like the taste. However, today the rice inside them was very, very gooey, as if they sat over the holiday. I ate 2.5 and threw the rest out. Someone came out to ask how things were but apparently didn't notice they were standing on rice. I didn't say anything about the dolmas, because by this time they were in the trash. Took home the remaining portion of the gyro, rice & tzatziki. Asked for a to go box, then asked again for lids for the sauce. Both times I interrupted someone playing on their phone, and the rest of the staff was hanging out talking behind the counter. Really wished they had taken the time to check the dining area.

As I walked in I could tell the inside was very clean. You could smell the clean! I ordered takeout: a Greek salad with added gyro meat and a small side of yellow rice. Service was quick and packaged neatly with dressing and tzatziki on the side. The portions are huge. Both dishes are a great value and of outstanding quality. I am glad I found Gyro Grill, it'll be my new go to spot for when I crave Mediterranean.

All of the local Turkish community have been elated that we finally had an authentic Turkish restaurant in the area. When recently sold it to their friends, we were a little concerned if the restaurant would maintain the quality of the food and the service.Well, let me tell you that last night all my fears were alleviated. For the past few days, I have been hosting some Turkish friends and ee were trying different restaurants, I have been trying to expose them to some of our local cuisine. Last night they wanted to try Istanbul Grill even though they normally eat at some of the best restaurants in Türkiye. Our dinner resulted in excellent experience because we were greeted warmly with a typical Turkish hospitality. We had the meze combo and mixed grill plate. We had the Turkish baklava, baked muhallebi, and künefe for desert. The food was top notch. My Turkish guests rated the food five stars. So, thank you very much Istanbul Grill, because you are not just a restaurant but representative of our culinary and hospitality culture.

I was told repeatedly that it was kabsa(a rice dish). What I received was not kabsa at all -- it was a flatbread/pastry (like mutabbak), not a rice dish. When I called, the owner said they don't even make kabsa and pointed to the receipt saying it was written as mutabbak. He was rude and refused a refund. That doesn't change the fact that I was told on the phone by some woman that they had kabsa. This wasn't a mix-up about taste -- I was told one thing and given something completely different, and they doubled down instead of fixing it.

If you happen to be able to catch when they have a buffet- OMG GO! The staff are all extremely kind as well! I typically order my food to go but I've eaten in twice. The space is modest and clean.
