Portion size was decent but not relative to price. Wait time was absurd & food was cold. Also Having trouble understanding how they can charge $15 a gyro & the one about 15mins away near south park charges $11? The gyro meat at both places tastes the same yet one is charging $4 for same portion size? Pretty sketchy , i think ill make the drive as when i order for my family we spend about $75 on GYROS! The other one costs about $45 , this place has gone downhill quick. Young kids running the place so ya. Just my input. I'm sure i'll get attacked like the other negative reviews.
For as expensive as this gyro was I had higher expectations. It was pretty bland. There are plenty of other lesser expensive options relatively close by that taste way better. $15 for a single gyro is almost double what you pay elsewhere for a much better gyro.Edited per reply: Portion size was not an issue that I stated in my review- the bland expensive gyro was large enough- just not good!

Sophia makes a great gyro and other Greek specialties as well as great conversation! Highly recommend Parea for satisfying your hunger.
100% Best Gyro around !Stopped in for a celebratory take-out meal, and so happy we pulled in.Sophia took great care in welcoming a first time customer. The location is great, food is amazing, and the atmosphere is superb for dining-in or on the patio, too.I can’t wait to return to try other Greek delicacies :)
Was walking on the trail and saw this place. So happy i stopped in bc this was some of the best

Ordered hummus. For $5.00 the smallest container is only HALF WAY FULL. Gyros are &12.00 and 6”. Over priced and portioned are very

Gyro is delicious. Bring your appetites-she doesn’t mess around when she loads the gyro. Made fresh and it makes all the difference. Fresh cut fries. I can’t get past the gyro with fries - so I haven’t tried anything elseThe Lady - I forgot her name - but she owns and operates the place by herself- she is very friendly and does a fantastic jobMy husband and I love to support local and we highly recommend Parea Gyros

Love it here! Love the gyros love the spinach pie and my kid loves the chicken strips and fries ). I tried the oregano potato chips by the register and I am a huge fan of those as well. It’s kinda like a lays potato chip with a light oregano flavor- It works without being too much flavor.

Delicious lamb and chicken gyro, and Greek fries. Stopped in today after a walk on the trail, and it was a perfect lunch!

A great lunch place, we always stop by when we walk the trail. The food is always yummy and the people are always kind.
Parea has the best Gyros in Pittsburgh!!! The meat is always tender and they are not stingy on filling the pitas to the brim! I definitely recommend them if you love gyros ?

Good food but the service is piss poor to the say the least. I have gone dozens of times over the years and they always act like they are doing you a favor by serving you. You call ahead to pick up and get there and the food hasn’t been started. Every single time I have called ahead this has happened. The decent food isn’t worth it to me so we stopped going. Sad cause I miss their chicken salad.

Sadly this place isn't what it used to be under the old owners and names. Have gone here several times to make sure it wasn't just a one off problem with the quality. The meat used is not even close to what it used to be. Mine is always overcooked and tastes cheap. Hate to say this but get the good stuff back and raise prices...won't go back again.
