Some time ago, I gave this place a 9/10 and recommended it, no longer. Now a one. I ordered on the phone and specifically asked for hummus and it was not provided. The salad was bad, like really stale. The meat was actually ok, but over all, today was just not a good experience. Over the last year, they have increased the price and now decreased the quality of the food. I don’t know if you can see in the photo, but the cucumber looks old. They also charge tax on cash now. The people are nice, no doubt about that, but it doesn’t really matter when the food isn’t good. Last time I came here. Also, I told them to put all the sauces, they forgot to put in the hot sauce. Ok came back again, my mom said that the kebob sandwich was amazing, which brang it back up to a 3, reluctantly.
Great food. Ordered for delivery and got it fast. Thank you so much!
Regular customer..food is good, but GRADE PENDING sign still in the window a year later. Questionable to say the least
Comon add a decent amount of meat. Customers paying 11$ not for a little meat . Last time I came here the spanish man put a very little amount of chicken meat . Thats the reason I would not come back
Every time I come here the food is consistently delicious. The staff is super friendly and always has my food ready for pickup quickly. The lamb gyro, kofta kebab and potato samosas are my go to items.
Very good clean food ,also the service is great
Alot of fresh food options. I go here after the gym to grab a bite to eat and Im always happy I wish parking and their bathroom lock was better. Sometimes they will be out of things. But They just opened a second location by newkirk train station.
This is my most favorite gyro/platter place ever!! The food tastes amazing. Everything is flavorful and no matter how many times you go, the quality does not change. They increased the prices once and are one of the expensive gyros, but it is literally worth it because it’s the best. Their white sauce is the most delicious sauce I have ever had and I always pack all my food with that. Service is also amazing. They are super friendly and very patient. I order online most of the time and leave a specific note of how I want my order and everytime, it is exactly how I wrote it. Many places dont even bother looking. I can be satisfied each time I order that the food will be perfect. 😌😌
First time eating from here, ordered the lamb & chicken combo platter. A tad pricey compared to your typical NYC halal cart, but what really makes the dish stand out is the basmati rice they use instead of the more common long grain rice. Yum! The white and hot sauce could be better, but overall a tasty dish. Will return to try their Hindi options next time.
Excellent food. My friend brought their Gyro & chicken rice platter & two sides for me and I love it. Had to split this up into 2 meals. Highly recommend this restaurant if you are craving delicious Halal food.
Best halal gyro ever i had 😋😋😋
This place always hits the spot. kind staff and speedy service
Food actually taste healthy n fresh.Gets busy around noon...GYROS are TOP priority...only staff is The owner n his wife.Not bad for a mom n pops store n a mixed neighborhood.
I dont get what others like about this place. The food is easily the worst in the neighborhood, the portions are small, the service sucks, and delivery takes forever. Go literally anywhere else and youll have a better time.
Great neighborhood place. Food is very good and service is friendly. Always get take out never sat there. No air conditioning as far as I can tell but for take out that doesnt matter. Simply the food is very good. They give you a good portion and theyre friendly. What more could you want in a neighborhood restaurant?
Fresh food and they give you a lot for your money. You can sit and eat there but its nothing fancy and much better to take you platter of food home. Friendly and respectful staff. There is a big jar for tips. Give them a buck or two because they deserve it, plus the large amount of food they give you, its worth a nice tip.
Fresh, good, arrived quickly to my apartment!
Great services dining in,take out,open every day and all kinds of food fresh.
Clean, food cooked properly, nice atmosphere
I liked it , I got the chicken gyro which was very good. The chicken soft and tender the sauces seem home made and the veggies fresh.Maybe a little bit of plastic covering between the veggies and the metal tins(I didnt see any , ) but thats just preference.Good spot for a quick bite and wnjoyable
Basically the best place on earth to be eating, everything is fresh and never old, every time I go just looking at the chicken waters your mouth. I never want to eat vegetables in my life but when I see their veggies I always get some. And honestly it taste very good as well. The employees are the best people you can have serve you, they are all amazingly funny which actually brightens people’s day up. They always help you choose in what u want. So honestly out of a 5 star rating I give it a 10. Don’t listen to me talking about and just go check it out.Best gyro in Brooklyn
Best halal in Brooklyn, they’re so nice here and remember their regulars. Food is great of course too!
Good place for standard halal cart type food, just indoors. Not very expensive (little more then a cart but I guess it pays for a roof). The veggies and meat always seem quite fresh. Beware the bathroom, its a bit more gross everytime I go. Shame on people!
Really nice guys here and great service. Accommodated my order of more vegetables than rice without charging me. Gyro platter is the best $8 you’ll spend in Prospect Park.
Got a Postmates delivered super fast and the food is amazing! Perfectly seasoned, right amount of spice and a good size portion. I’ll definitely be ordering from here again

Terrible service. If you want a gyro, just expect to have to tell them whats in a gyro and how its suppose to look. They have no clue. There was a woman and a man...the woman was im guessing mexican and so was the man taking my order. He was very rude and argued with me about what a gyro consists of.
Always pick up from them. Order online sucks
Pretty good gyro platter. My wife and I love the lamb. Even when they arent consistent, the food is still good. The pepper provided is too hot. A little goes a long way.
Delicious Gyro. Cooked to order , medium or well done. Nice fresh salad. A couple of bucks mote expensive than other gyro places but its worth the price.
Delicious chicken platter. They have a good selection of toppings such as salads and veggies. Great place for lunch.
This place doesn’t need my review their high quality service speaks for them self’s they are open and we’ll know in this area for awhile. the place is an average size 20-30 people at a time my best guess, food is fresh they are friendly cash and cards are both accepted
Fake Gyro! Was expecting Greek Gyro! meat cooked and cut like any NYC Halal cart, will never order again very disappointed the only place I will eat from is Gyro world in Queens I guess you get what you pay for. Delivery fee, tax and Tip was more than the cost of my Food SMH!
This is the best food Ive had in years ! Genuine food, they know how to properly prepare and condiment everything on their menu. The staff is always friendly and treats us like family. Good food, great price and friendly staff !
I bought halal fried chicken, and I found the chicken’s meat cooked outside but inside totally frozen fresh meat. The foods quality not good as I expected. Only cash they don’t take card.USE CAUTION before eating This Cafes fried Chicken 🐔 🐔 🐔 🐔 🐔
Very stingy on there gyro meat. Im very disappointed. And over overpriced.
I was getting tired of eating Gyro King all the time and needed some better gyro, luckily I found Gyro Cafe! They have their own unique taste, the chicken over rice tastes like its from a Turkish restaurant!
I found this place after the Sandy Hurricane and I had to walk up Coney Island Ave.The Chicken Gyro is meaty, meaty, meaty, delicious!!! And tastes delicious when you save it for later. The service is friendly and good-natured. Its a true unpretentious Neighborhood Place for Eats.
Very cooperative and friendly staff. Food is very fresh and tastes magnificent.
Really good fresh food thats inexpensive! This place has a steady stream of loyal customers but theres never a long wait for your food.
Great gyro place in the neighborhood. Always cooked the way you like it. Staff are friendly and funny. The service is excellent. Food was never disappointing.
Great food great people definitely coming back. Amazing food at a great price. Gyro king and gyro hut doesn’t compare to gyro cafe. I found flies and hair when i ate at gyro hut and gyro king. Now i avoid that place and eat at gyro cafe. it’s The best!
Im on Google searching for a delicious Lamb Gyro to eat right now, Ive never used this restaurant but it had 4 plus Stars so I wanted to try them. I called for a pickup order but I had to cancel and hang up because before they can take my order they got rude agressive and spoke to me like I was an idiot. I requested a Double Lamb Gyro No PITA, and a reg Lamb gyro. The original guy on phone asked if I wanted a gyro or platter I said a gyro no pita and he said ok hold on. So Im assuming he put his boss on, because he passed the phone and this guy asked what I want. I repeated and he asked doni want a platter or a gyro? I said gyro. He asked a couple more times and I explained what I wanted and then He said then dont tell me no pita you want a platter RUDE RUDE RUDE! THEY ARE SO RUDE. STAY AWAY! they dont even know Im a first time potential customer just trying to get lunch! Idk if you have preexisting policies or who had to mess it up foreveryone else! Now do I have to purchase a larger more expensive platter when I know that most restaurants use that to throw more salad in and less Lamb so get your customer service straight you jerks!
Don’t try their appetisers(esp chicken tikka=nightmare). One of the worst appetisers I have ever had.
Great halal spot
Man why does the delivery take so long we are literally right near them we live 0.1 miles and less and it takes almost 2 hours of delivery we had cancel our order and waste our time, even a 2 year old would know. I don’t know if god gave them a brain do not order terrible service.😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
Great food, their gyros are probably one of the best ones in Brooklyn. Highly recommend trying it sometime!
This place is worth trying. They have large portions for convenient rates. Regularly neat and with excellent ambience. Would recommend to others.
The one star is for lack of costumer service. I ordered gyros for my family and they did not say they come with hot sauce in the description. My grandmother and aunt cannot tolerate or eat hot sauce. I called up the Coney Island location and they gave me a run around and had me call another location and finally I called them again and he magically remembered I did place the order with them. When I asked to be sent new gyros without hot sauce he said next time this and that and would not fix their mistake. If on the menu it was stated the gyros came with hot sauce I would of asked them to put it on the side. If anyone has allergies or intolerance to certain ingredients and they just put them in the food and dont correct their mistake then it could possibly be life threatening if the costumer doesnt know the food will come with something that isnt listed on the menu. Food is meh, I would not order again or recommend. There are plenty of gyro joints located in Coney Island.
Used to be the best gyro in Brooklyn, second perhaps only to Anatolian gyro on Sheepsheadbay. It seems like the quality has been trending down. The last order of 4 gyros was way too saltly. Will try again - fingers crossed.
Good gyros but the place needs an upgrade. For goodness sake they have a hand washing sink outside the bathroom, right next to where they place a table for customers to eat. Very uncomfortable.
Really good food Ive been coming here for a while now, super friendly staff and the prices are good too
One of my fav late night spots in the area. I love that they are open late. Food is very flavorful and service is always fast! Its a bit on the pricey side but its worth it bc of the friendly costumer service!
Amazing food. Hands down best chicken over rice Ive ever had. And I was born and raised in NYC so I know my gyro spots
The best gyros in Brooklyn so far! Tastiest fresh off the shawarma.Great friendly staff!!!This is how its done! Watch and learn, rest of Brooklyn!!
So little quantity price too expensive
Everytime i place orders, they always get them wrong and it happens everytime i buy from there. I found a piec of fork on my rice the other day. The worst of them all is when i found a long hair in my food. DO NOT GET FOOD FROM THIS PLACE THEY ARE UNSANITARY.
A little gem hidden within the Kensington neighborhood This gyro cafe is not like the others their food is absolutely amazing and their wide Verity and choices is even more please you can either stay and sit in the Back where they have a 60 TV for your Entertainment Its so if you happen to be walking by make sure to stop in
This place never disappointed me. I got exactly what I ordered and food was always hot and fresh. This is my favourite place.
Not the best gyro I ever had ... gyro king is better...they need to work on there white sauce...price is more then gyro king as well which doesnt make any sense...baklava we got from them was dry...and expensive
Best customer service and family style catering workers very professionals and the food is excellent and delicious
They were really good..before the owner was serving people...and now he is alwasy sitting on the chair.....I just bought a platter today from them and they gave me nothing for $7....there box is smallest one in the newyork...and still they give u half empty...I used go to them whenever Im in coney island..but now I will never ever come here again...there are much better places to go
Very clean and neat . Great taste. Affordable and perfect to go or eat in. Great customer service. You can also call ahead.
Do not order from this place . Delivery takes forever . Then once the lukewarm food arrives it is stale and over cooked . I paid $17.45 for a large mix gyro platter only to receive a container filled to its brim with rice but hardly any lamb or chicken and what was given was not edible . Plus two pita halves that were literally hard as rocks . STAY AWAY !!
The food is so good here very tasty chicken fish etc when u want 2 fill ur belly this is the place
Amazing food, amazing service, great environment and great people.
Ive been here a few times and I always get very good service that is quick and the food is definitely good. I cant really ask more for that when looking for a quick meal!
Amazing place! Thank you. Very good quality food for a really good price
If you looking for a delicious giro, this place wont disappoint.
Great food and service. Always fresh and generous portions.
I liked the place so first time I found hair I kept going agai,but the second time I found a straw in my rise baked never went again
Chicken was hard like a rock. And it’s deffo not worth a 9 dollar plate at all 👎
Depends whose there to serve you certain workers and the owner give small portions dont matter if your a regular costumer.
Definitely one of the best gyro places in the area. Ive been eating there for years, and the food never disappoints.
Fresh food pleasant staff and most importantly its very clean inside.

Chicken over rice there is really good. Also recommend getting their baklava.
THEY increased the price to 8 dollars! And they give you so little In a tiny box. Definitely wont fill you up!!

Review №3
2022-04-23Hmmmm I didnt love/like my Gyro...unfortuntely. The pita was not warm, it was basically salad and meat on top in a pita, and the meat was barely warm.I was also going to get some Baklava (small sticky sweet flaky pastry) about the size of your pinky finger, they wanted $5.00 for one (I repeated the prx to the gentleman to confirm and yes each $5.00), when a package of 3 is usually $5.00.I will not go to this establishment again.

2021-04-09Glad there is a new gyro place in the area. Decided to give it a try & was surprised so glad we tried this place. We sampled alot of items & overall all the staples were really great we enjoyed everything the sauce & hummus could have been better but not bad at all the fish it was dry & bland but everything else was so good that it really didnt matter much am definitely gonna be back there when ever I am around

2022-04-06Nicely stuffed sandwiches in pita bread. When you order through Grubhub, they do follow your instructions to leave something out, and Grubhub guarantees 1/2 hour delivery. Those are the ONLY good things about this place. I know its healthier, but I dont appreciate the fact that they use very little to no salt in their falafel and veggie samosas. No flavor. Their lamb gyro aint great either! It actually tasted... bad. NOT like it had gone bad, just bad in and of itself. If youve had good gyro, then youll see how bad this is. They neglected to mention in the description that they put hot sauce on their sandwiches. Its truly HOT and I cant take hot sauce. They claimed their Samosas were wrapped in phyllo but it arrived as a potato pancake, no phyllo at all. Their food is so bad that it makes the very few good things not worth it. I strongly advise against this place!

2018-04-12So last week I got fried chicken from them and when I got home after my first bite into the chicken I found the chicken was totally raw not even undercooked.That’s it for me. Order by your own risk.
