Often praised
- foodfood at all, it was fresh and flavorful
- gyroMy experience at this restaurant was fantastic, particularly the food. I had the best gyro I've ever had, and the lamb was delicious. While I wish they didn't charge for extra tzatziki, I understand their reasoning.
- lambThe lamb I got was so juicy and great
- meatThe flavors are bold, authentic, and incredibly satisfying. The gyro is perfectly seasoned, with tender meat and fresh, flavorful toppings. Every bite is a delicious journey to Greece.
- FoodFood:5
- falafelDolmathes, falafel, gyro, it's all great
- friesThe fries, and Tzatziki are beautiful
- gyrosD’s accommodates your taste. I’ve tried gyros all over, and I can safely proclaim there are only two places I will always get a gyro: Mr. D’s at the market and a place in Missoula, MT.
- lamb gyrothe food was excellent - My son got a lamb gyro
- tzatzikithe tzatziki was as refreshing as I was hoping
Frequently criticized
- falafelHowever, I felt I was shorted as it only had 3 small pieces of steak, but otherwise, it was phenomenal. The falafel were okay; they looked smaller and flatter than advertised and seemed slightly overcooked, but the tzatziki sauce was awesome. Overall, it's a cute little stop for a quick lunch.
- gyroa lemonade and gyro that had a tsp of chewy meat
- meatSO LITTLE MEAT!!! We only got three bites that had actual meat
- baklavaI took one bite of balklava and threw it away
- chicken gyrochicken gyro without tomatoes (she is allergic to them), and they were on the gyro anyway
- flavorThey could use more flavor
- foodfood wasn't that great - I have had better !!
- friesThe fries were old and funky.
- hummusvery little hummus and it was watered down so tasted bland
- lettuceI suspect this was intended to hide how little meat they actually add to their wraps. My first two bites were nothing more than lettuce and white sauce. I do not recommend this dish at all.
If youre craving a hearty lamb gyro with great tzatziki and dont mind the occasional inconsistency, this place is worth a try. However, be mindful that some dishes might fall short on flavor or portion size, so choose wisely to avoid disappointment.

It had no more than 3 small pieces of actual beef, and the rest was a poor pita drowned in white sauce and lettuce.

Order Issues and Staff Culture Concerns
My experience at this restaurant was marked by a lack of attention to detail regarding my order instructions. I believe there needs to be a greater emphasis on employing staff with the right cultural understanding to prepare distinct foods. The order wasn't followed as instructed.

Expensive Gyro, Not Worth the Price
My husband and I visited this spot while at Pike Place, coming from New York. Unfortunately, we were not impressed with the gyro. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special.
What was particularly disappointing was the price, around $15-$17, which is insanely expensive for a gyro, especially when you can get a delicious one for $5 in NYC.

Best Gyros Ever, Worth the Mess!
First things first, it’s Mr. D’s and NOT Mr. Deeds. Now that we got that straight, let’s get another thing straight: Fries don’t belong on gyros. While some eateries might pull that fry-on-gyro stunt, Mr. D’s accommodates your taste.
I’ve tried gyros all over, and I can safely proclaim there are only two places I will always get a gyro: Mr. D’s at the market and a place in Missoula, MT. Other than those two, it’s usually a miss. Mr. D’s has fresh meat off the rotating spit and the BEST tzatziki – you can even buy a tub to go!
That tzatziki is amazing on everything. Mr. D’s piles your gyro so high it’s almost too much, and you’re almost guaranteed to make a mess. Finally, Mr. D’s charges a more than fair rate for his gyros, which is pretty cheap for Seattle.
So quit hesitating and grab you a meat cone or yee-row if you will.

Worst Gyro Ever at Pike Place
My experience at this restaurant was disappointing, particularly concerning the food. While Pike Place is generally great, this was the worst Gyro I've ever eaten. The falafel, consisting of only 3 small pieces, was mushy.
I was asked if I wanted hummus and tzatziki before payment, but unfortunately, both were watered down and tasted as if they came from condiment bottles. To add to the disappointment, these extras cost an additional $2-4. The gyro itself was overwhelmingly filled with romaine lettuce (about 85%), and the pita was a mere 4" in diameter.
Witnessing its preparation was enough to anticipate a poor experience. When I inquired about feta, I was told it was an extra $2. Since I had already paid with a card and had no cash, I had to forgo it, which would have pushed the total cost to around $20 for what felt like a sandwich.
I've had significantly better gyros from mall food courts. I will not be returning.
