New York Gyro Lyndale Ave

I wanted to love it but I only liked it.

The good: stick to their gyros. Sooo freaking flavorful and they use a bigass pita/naan for the gyro. I got chicken and I swear it is everything. That chicken is seasoned to the bone (it's actually boneless lol). You have a bunch of sauces to choose from to customize it too.

But that's about it tbh. I got their student fries with meat, and I messed up bc I ordered it with their hot sauce and asked for extra lmao. The hot sauce literally has no spice to it; black pepper has more of a kick for you mild folks out there and that says a lot lol. So my fries just had an overwhelming tang flavor to everything that unfortunately was not pleasant. I also got their beef patty and beef pai. Honestly, idk which is which bc they both came in the same container but one of em has like a flaky dough and the other has a puff pastry (for the Chicagoans, it's a pizza puff lol). You can honestly skip both of these. The one with the flaky dough was just underwhelming: the beef was more like a beef paste that was underseasoned.

Overall, the store was super clean. They got that AC going. Lots of dine-in seating. I'd definitely go again just for their gyros (and possibly rice plates along with that mango lassi calling out to me). Avoid the hot sauce lol.

Love love love this restaurant they have THE BEST food I've ever had been here many many times and it's always amazing!!! 💕💕💕

I liked it. My gyro was fully customizable chipotle-style, so I could put stuff I normally wouldn't (Pico or banana peppers) on my gyro. Good food. Some of the food was overpriced though. The mango shake is 5 dollars for a medium sized cup. Nice place though. Good vibe.

Straightforward gyro open late night. Chicken rice is my go to. The rice is great. The chicken can be hit or miss but it’s pretty good. Lots of fresh veggie and sauce options to add. They usually give you a decent portion size. Service is slow or fast depending on the time you come.

Price isn’t expensive but it isn’t exactly cheap either, especially the sides/drinks

I ordered a late night dinner through Uber eats. The food was very good, but the portion was ridiculously small. I guess I’m used to an old school gyro, not a breakfast burrito from McDonald’s. That’s how big it was - A Barbie doll-size appetizer, 1/3 the size of your traditional GYRO. It would have been kind of a joke, except I was starving.

I got the lamb gyro, a beef pasty, baklava & beverage. They forgot the beef pasty. It was late and that was my meal for the day, and it was not nearly enough. And the final kicker? This was over $32.

I’m an Uber member, had a string of discounts. Too expensive, not enough food- and they can’t get a four item order correct? I won’t be ordering here again. Don’t order late night or you’ll be SOL and hungry.

If I could give zero stars, I would. Ordered through Uber Eats — food showed up tampered with. One of the meals was clearly eaten into, the other looked half full. This is the second time I’ve had issues with this place (first was through DoorDash). Not only that, but the food took over an hour to arrive, and it still came cold. Clearly they don’t care about hygiene, presentation, or customers. Never again. Avoid this place if you value your health and time.

Ugh, that undercooked lamb tikka I had was a total gut-buster – major stomach pain!

Forgot salad & hardly any veggies at all ! I ordered from here for the veggies to be honest ! I really should've just ordered pizza instead that's how upset & disappointed !! After a long day of work I get this while trying to be healthy & get crapped on !

Really wanted to like this place. I have eaten here before in the past with no complaints. Halfway through eating my gyro over rice last night I found a fingernail in my food. Absolutely disgusting. I will never eat here again.

The meat is usually cold because they don’t take their time with fixing it. It’s cubed gyro meat which I don’t like. I like all the toppings.
