    Example of the menu. Shows the salad section on the menu. Including the "made to order" statement.

    Preface: I gave 2 stars for food since it was pretty good. Nothing special. This was my first time ordering from the Gyro Shop and I was thoroughly disappointed. I wanted to order the greek salad which explicitly states that they are "made fresh to order, please mention any exclusions". We call to order and begin listing what I don't want on my salad. I am immediately told they can't do that so we hang up and reevaluate what I can order. I called back and asked to speak with management since the menu seems to be outdated. The associate (male) who answered the phone was quite rude and not understanding whatsoever. He asked me what I needed management for and never clarified whether he would get management or if he WAS management. Considering that their menu is outdated and unclear, you would think they would be remotely understanding or apologetic. Nope! The guy is short, blunt, and cannot properly explain how the salad is "made to order" but can't be customized. Either a meal is customizable or not but at least make sure your menu is accurate. Speaking of menu inaccuracies, the prices on their menu are also wildly outdated. We paid significantly more than was estimated from their menu prices. The Greek Shop, Pick a struggle, either have an outdated menu or bad customer service but you can't have both. I never stepped a foot inside the store, but after this encounter, I never will.

    Who doesn't love this place? Anytime you're in the area and if you like Gyros and some other delicious Greek treats this is a must stop. The crew are always welcoming and friendly and friendly make you feel at home. Easy to get along with and a decent size dining area. They have bottled drinks and self serve fountain pop. The gyros are always delicious and fresh and one of the best in all of Pittsburgh and surrounding areas. The desserts are to die for as well. This place is a hard keep it on the map for regular return trips for delicious meals.

    I am not usually a huge fan of this type of cuisine...or maybe I should say, it is not a cuisine I crave very often. I usually enjoy it when I eat it, but it is never my top pick. My husband wanted to try it out and it was good place to take our toddlers to, though the restaurant wasn't particularly clean. I got the traditional gyro pita and my husband got the crispy chicken. Mine was great. Nice flavors, with a pita full of toppings and sauce. My husbands was nothing special...while it still had a nice amount of toppings and sauce, the chicken was a frozen chicken patty (though they did fry it right then so it was hot and "fresh") but I wouldn't necessarily suggest getting that one. The service was quick and we had a nice meal.

    Stopped in with the family for an early dinner after running errands in Wexford. When we showed up we were the only in/restaurant patrons, but they took several calls for orders too so it seems like they must stay pretty busy. The two boys working looked to be about high school age and were friendly enough. We ordered a traditional gyro, crispy chicken gyro, chicken tenders and fries for the 4 of us. Total tab came out to about $30 bucks which isn't too bad when feeding 4. The fries were a generous portion and the gyros were a good size too so definitely come with an appetite! Only complaints were just the mess around every table, in the bathroom, sticky floors and soda pop fountain. It just feels like this place could use a little TLC and elbow grease to make it more pleasant for eating in.

    I loved the food ambiance and service at Elia and I would definitely be back! The food was probably…read morea 4/5, the drink I had was a 5/5, and the service was a 5/5 as well. Am looking forward to being back! My server was Tolia (sorry if I'm misspelling/misremembering) and she did an AMAZING job. She was super friendly, made awesome menu recommendations and was a delight to chat to. She recommended I start with the char grilled octopus and this was delicious. It came with capers and a grilled lemon and olive oil and was beautifully presented. The potion was easily finished by just me, so if you have more than 2 people I'd recommend getting more than 1 order of these. It's so delicious. I was then picking between the pastitsio and the moussaka. I was told they both have a strong nutmeg flavor which was not a problem for me. I decided on the moussaka and it was so delicious. It did have a strong nutmeg flavor but not in an overwhelming way. It came with a bechamel sauce on top and layers of eggplant with ground beef tomato and potato. It sort of reminded me of a shepherds pie if you're not as familiar with Greek food. The portion was HUGE - could easily split between 2. I ate almost half of it but couldn't eat the rest although I wish I could've. It was so good. The cocktail I ordered was a nectar spritz (something with "nectar" in the title at least) and genuinely was one of the best cocktails I've had. Definitely beat every other one I had in Pittsburgh this week by FAR. So yummy. I was so impressed with every aspect of my dining experience and would definitely be back!

Very expensive for 2 very small banana peppers with feta and marinara. Not very good. The spanakopita had 2 large pieces over a salad. Very good. For dinner I had the Shrimp Sunrise which is shrimp, rice, and feta. Tails present well but trying to eat are a little messy. The other diner had the seafood medley with mussels, shrimp, etc. over pasta. Both meals were large portions and we took half home. Suprised by number of food options. Will be back to try other offerings.

    !! Dashers Beware !!…read more I've been working DoorDash and picking up from this location is the worst. The people who work there are nice, but couldn't care less about your order. They DO NOT prioritize DoorDash orders. When you arrive, regardless of the time of day, you will likely be told they are still working on your order. I have, on multiple occasions, went in to pickup an order while there were ZERO customers in the place and they still don't have the order ready or even close to being ready. A typical wait time for this location is 15+ minutes. In that amount of time, you could get other offers and not be waisting 20 minutes of downtime on one order from Aladdin's. I don't accept any DoorDash orders for this restaurant anymore because I've waited over 20 minutes for an order and the staff are sitting at tables chatting up each other with no regard for the take out orders coming in. If you choose to pickup orders from this location, please do so at your own risk.

    My first time eating from this restaurant, and I can't wait to eat more! I ordered delivery, and I…read moreordered a feast! I got a Lebanese salat and added chicken. Hummus with veggies and a side of pita and loubie bezit. What a delicious feast. The flavors are bold and fresh. My salat was loaded with cucumber, tomato, and a herb forward dressing. I also appreciated the large serving of chicken. This was light and delicious! The hummus is some of the best I've had. Very creamy and smooth and perfect for dipping! I got a small portion, and I had plenty of leftovers. The loubie bezit was a surprise. I just picked something that sounded good and have never heard of. There were many whole garlic cloves and a nice touch of heat in a tomatoey sauce. Plenty of green beans. Really tasty dish! There is so much more on the menu I want to try!
