"I have got to say that this is the best Gyro in all of Lake County.Grew up in the city and I have tried many a Gyro after moving out to Lake County.Best tzatziki sauce.You don't get cheated on the meat with this sandwich."

"This is our Greek go to spot in our neck of the woods in Tosa. It's an awesome hole in the wall joint run by a super friendly, hard-working family. The star of the show is no doubt the jerk chicken pita - it's massive and loaded with flavor. Not greasy or spicy, it's truly out of this world. It comes with amazing fries that are always hot, fresh and crispy. I was able to try the fish fry, it was just OK though. I have not tried any of their gyros yet, and it's only because that jerk chicken pita is so darn good it's hard to pass it up when I visit. We usually take our food to go because it is a tiny restaurant with only a few tables, so it can be difficult to dine in during the busy lunch rush. Pro tip: take your food to go and head across the street to Gathering Place Brewery and have yourself a pint on their fabulous back patio while you nosh on your killer pita!"

"My husband and I order dinner to go, staff was sooo friendly! He got a cheeseburger with cheese fries and I got the chicken Philly all were amazing! We got baklava for dessert. I can't wait to try more items on the menu. 10/10. We highly recommend it!"

"I have seen this place pop up on yelp from time to time but I'm confident that it will not knock off my fav, Oakland Gyros because no one has but I'm always open to new places.The place is in a strip mall on 27th St by Honey dipped donuts with plenty of parking. Here we go, the place is empty with only me so now I have absolutely no idea of what to expect and it might not be good. The place is bright and clean looking with a Greek looking decor, simple but it gets the point across. The place has plenty of blue comfy booths, blue walls with Greek looking art. There is a soda machine with a drink fridge on the other wall for take out drinks and a desert cooler with some nice looking treats.The menu is all over the place from salads to fish fry plates but I'm there for the bread and butter, the gyro sandwich. The people seem nice enough and my tray was ready in no time and like the commercial, the top of my head blew off as i walked to my table. Was I in the Twilight Zone and was that a whole bottle of the tzatziki sauce on my tray, YES it was and I could have as much as I wanted, super fuck#%g cool.Visually the gyro sandwich looked good and and perfectly placed on the pita, no sloppy put together sandwich here. It's not the biggest gyro but not the smallest and in that just right, eat a third of the meat before it can actually be folded over and eaten like a sandwich. I liked the thin sliced whole tomatoes vs the chunky fat ones by the way.As I like to do before any masking sauces go on I want to taste the meat by it self first. The gyro meat was tasty with a hint of garlic which I really liked flavor wise so I took a few more naked bites and yah it's tasty, I like it. The gyro meat was moist/tender/fresh not the over cooked/crisped crap they forgot about on the strand that some place give you. One thing I also noticed was that it's not the greasy/messy kind of gyro meat that you sometimes get. The tzatziki sauce was average and no chunks in it that I like but it was applied on my terms because I had the whole bottle to work with. The pita was fresh and had that little chewyness pull to it, yes I have to make up words sometimes to describe some foods. The tomatoes and onions were fresh and the onion was not the gyro for lunch and still in your mouth six hours later onion on my visit.Overall it didn't dethrone my favorite gyro place but it's not bad at all to my surprise and probably equally good in its own different ways so I would definitely stop back for a gyro and a little more of the menu for sure and I was pleasantly surprised in the end, nice job."

The Brass Key

★★★★☆ 3.5 (45) • $$

"I really think this place is underrated. Our friends go there often and know the servers. We sat at the bar and enjoyed a few cocktails before dinner. I had an old fashion. It tasted good but was a weird color It was pretty read and they did not muddle it. However we started off with soup. I had the chicken dumpling and it was the best I ever had. The others in our group had creamy broccoli and they all enjoyed it. I had the Greek salad. Loved the salad dressing. The others had the fried chicken. It was crispy, juicy and flavorful. My friend did say you have to know what to order. I do think the menu is way too big. Cut it down and quality would be better on all food. Service was good. We will definitely be going back to try other things."

Blue Bay Restaurant

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (52) • $$

"(Make that 2 1/2 stars.) Our local favorite--Fork in the Road--happens to be closed on Sundays and Mondays, so we implemented "Plan B," namely Blue Bay. Their George H. W. Bush-era décor begs to be updated, but otherwise this family-friendly diner appears reasonably neat and clean. Blue Bay's enormous menu features unapologetically retro diner classics that hark back to the era when a 1/2 lb. burger plated with cottage cheese was actually considered healthy. The wonderful servers and remarkably inexpensive prices are the obvious draw. But, you literally get what you pay for--average quality food. Our sandwiches were okay but did not rise above ordinary. Cooked-to-order items, e.g. breakfast dishes, deep-fried, and grilled or griddled items, seem to be the best bets here. Some entrées looked and tasted as though they had been prepared in large batches much earlier in the day. The kitchen has a heavy hand with the gravy ladle. Swedish meatballs--described by a server as "one of our most popular items" arrived ... brace yourself ... drenched in a dreadful gloppy Alfredo sauce (Italian/Swedish fusion?). Spaghetti & meat sauce was proportioned 1/3 pasta to 2/3 sauce. Mashed potatoes were awash in a sea of insipid beige gravy.Dessert? You guessed it ... tapioca or rice pudding, ice cream, and cheesecake. We ordered the cheesecake and spumoni (dessert came with our meals). Both were forgettable."

"I have been going to this restaurant for years now and last year on thanksgiving I did my usual of going out to breakfast before cooking thanksgiving dinner like I have done forever and I noticed everyone around me ordering the thanksgiving dinner. So I thought that the next thanksgiving I would forgo breakfast for lunch and see why everyone was ordering the thanksgiving dinners with turkey because I next to never cook a turkey on thanksgiving. This is a nice Greek style restaurant and no dive. I did order a spicy Bloody Mary which was average which had no straw and disappointing because it's hard to drink a beverage full of small ice.Ok here's the run down on the thanksgiving dinner, choice of protein that includes turkey to salmon and much in between see my menu pix, bread basket, soup, choice of potato, dressing, gravy, cranberries and desert choice.I chose turkey, mashed potatoes, turkey dumpling soup and pumpkin pie as my meal only because I next to never have a traditional thanksgiving meal.The bread basket looked great because it had ciabatta style fresh rolls instead of boring dinner rolls, good job. The turkey dumpling soup was good but under seasoned like everything because it's cooked for the masses but salt is on the table. The dumplings were al dente and irregular which might be house made and hit the spot. The turkey plate looked amazing with gravy all over everything on the plate. The gravy was average and yellow while I prefer a more traditional brown gravy. The dressing was a soul food corn bread style that was way too loose/super wet for my taste. The mashed potatoes were dense with clumps letting you know that there real and no box. The turkey was excellent because it was a mix of dark and white meat, thank you because I like dark meat and it was real turkey because I had that stringy cartilage thing from the legs in my plate. All the turkey was moist and tender to my surprise. The cranberries were were skin in jamb style, not to sweet which I don't expect to be home made but did the job.Overall the thanksgiving dinner had pros and cons for my first restaurant in a very very long time and I can't even remember my last thanksgiving restaurant dinner. It's more 3.5 stars but 4 stars will be given because they executed a well attempt at home cooking most of the meal especially the fresh moist turkey and I might have a new respect for moist cooked turkey again. I had no service issues except that they were busy and my server did her best but couldn't give everyone all her attention, no harm no foul."

"Great food and good people. What more do you need. As yes... Pretty decor(see the pictures)! I stopped in here twice while I was in Milwaukee on business. My meals were excellent both times and the people so friendly. The portion and huge and great tasting as well. The price are more than fair for the amount you receive.

Oakland Gyros

★★★★☆ 4.4 (374) • $$

"We have been dining at Oakland gyros for over 20 years and stop about once every other week or so. Why you ask? Well, portions are huge, quality is great, service is fast and friendly and prices are very reasonable. I travel quite a bit for work and since there is a location near the MKE airport, my routine is to stop here, pull up to the drive through and place our regular order. This order contains the chicken shiskabob with rice, the beef shiskabob with fries and the fried eggplant. Note that I've had almost everything on the menu and have found that the 3 things mentioned are best for feeding my family of 5 (3 teenagers!). I honestly cannot recall a time where we have been left disappointed as they just do things right each and every time. Besides the great service, great food and reasonable prices, I truly appreciate the consistency as I know I am going to get a great meal each & every time. This seems rare and keeps me coming back time and time again."

Sunset Family Restaurant

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (61) • $

"If you're looking for a fine dining experience, this is not to place. If you're looking for a kitschy local diner with quick service and decent food, you're in luck. I've been coming to Sunset Family Restaurant for years now, and I've always had a pretty good experience. In all honesty, the ladies at the front who run the cash register and usher you toward your table are pretty cold. The servers aren't always super friendly, but you can without a doubt count on your food being delivered to your table promptly. Whenever I visit, I always go with breakfast food. You really can't go wrong with pancakes or an omelet. (The Denver omelet is particularly yummy.) But it's pretty annoying that you can make a whole lot of substitutions. Sometimes I just want a single pancake, but each time I've been told you have to order a minimum of two. One thing about this place to note is that the food isn't really worth the price. Is it yummy? For sure. But I would say the meal is generally worth half of what you're actually paying for it. Sunset Family Restaurant is most definitely a Waukesha staple. You'll get seated and served very quickly and the food is always good. But don't expect a five star experience."

Look forward to coming back for dinner!Thank you, Sammy's!"

Phoenix Family Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.6 (62) • $

"Recently, I was driving through the area and thought I stop for a quick bite. I didn't feel like fast food so I thought I'd check this restaurant out - so glad I did.Granted, upon entering this restaurant, the decor did remind me of many suburban restaurant chains, however, it didn't bother me. To me, the food and service what is important. I was greeted right away by the owner (I believe) and seated right away. The server had greeted me and went over the menu and the nightly specials. Within a few minutes, the server took my order, Hot Turkey Open Face Sandwich and a bowl of the Egg Lemon Rice soup. The soup came within a couple of minutes. The soup was nice and creamy. The soup was just delicious. I would HIGHLY recommend this. As the owner was seating another guest, I had complimented her on how great the soup is.Few minutes later the meal was delivered to me. The sandwich was just as good. Yes, I wish the potatoes were real instead of instant but it didn't ruin my meal. The portions were very good size. Like another reviewer stated.... You gotta love the Greeks! Yes, the server did check in with me throughout the meal while he was taking care of the other customers.I had decided to take a slice of the cherry pie with me back to the hotel. The slice was a decent size and very good. As I was paying, the owner gave me another cup of soup to go. That is GREAT Customer service. I was really surprised. That is one of the reasons why I would highly recommend this restaurant and I will defiantly return when I pass through Kenosha. Enjoy!"

"Let me be very clear -- I come here for the BLOODIES! Not saying their food isn't good just that my drive from Milw. is based solely on the desire to order their delicious bloodies! With that said, if you're looking for a tasty bloody mary and are in the area or looking for a 'hidden gem' off the beaten path, head on over to Jimmy's in Jackson, WI! Their specialty bloody marys are available on Saturdays and Sundays and feature the Greek God as well as the Cheesehead. If you're looking for a tasty meal and bloody all in one then both of these will certainly satisfy!What are these two specialty bloodies you speak of? Well, the Cheesehead comes with all their regular fixings (lemon wedge, cheese cube, celery, summer sausage, pickle, mushroom, etc.) but then also comes with cheese curds, string cheese whips, and a FULL GRILLED CHEESE! The Greek God comes with their regular bloody mary fixings (lemon wedge, pickle, celery, summer sausage, cheese cube, mushroom, etc), an entire GYRO complete with onion, Kalamata olive, feta cheese, gyro meat, pita bread, etc. with a side of tzaziki sauce! Lastly, you're probably wondering, how's the mix?! Well, IMO, the bloody is robust in flavor (this is what I look for) and, while you'll be asked if you'd like your bloody mild or spicy, keep in mind you can order somewhere in the middle (for this robust glass of deliciousness, I think a medium spice is just perfect). All in all, Jimmy's is a spot I'll gladly take a little weekend drive for a bloody mary craving! One more thing--how are they handling the COVID pandemic? Well, for starters--their outdoor patio has at least 3 hand sanitizing stations, all staff are in mask both when serving indoor and outdoor diners. I sat outside last weekend and we were able to watch the Packer game on a flat screen (yep, there's a TV on the patio) and they cranked the heat lamps on for us...felt like we were just at the Game! HaHA! Indoors, customers are required to wear their masks indoors unless seated at their tables and eating/drinking. Thanks, Jimmy's! The pandemic is no joke and our COVID numbers are way too high in this state so, cheers to you for trying to help do your part amidst such unforeseen times. Fellow Yelpers, tip 'em well!"

Omicron Family Restaurant

"I had high hopes for this place as I can finally start having breakfast in a sit down restaurant again. This place probably has the most stupid COVID 19 rule that is just asinine that makes absolutely no FUC#ING sense. You will get walked to your table, they will bring water and requested table fixings to your table, they will bring your food to your table and they will bring your check to your table, they will check on how you are doing but they can't take your order at your table so you have to walk to the register and place your order. WTF is this stupid nonsense and what genius thought that your server could come to your table for everything except to take your order.I ordered the $8 gyro and feta omelette that comes with toast and hash browns but I requested tomato and onion in my omelette to make it more like a gyro. To my amazement they changed me $10 for my breakfast, that's an extra $2 for a little tomato and onion which is 25% more for my breakfast overall which is excessive I thought.My breakfast came hot to the table which I liked but I instantly noticed that the gyro meat was all uniformly sliced the same, not cut off the gyro spit real gyro meat but the kind you get in the store with the gyro sandwich kit.The gyro meat, feta cheese, tomato and onion omelette was a pretty good combination which made for a tasty breakfast. The hash browns were golden crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, slightly seasoned just how I like them and good. The toast was was room temperature so the butter was smeared on and not melted into the bread which I didn't care for.Charging 25% more for an omelette breakfast for a little tomato and onion is really ridiculous so I would never go back to this restaurant."

"First, don't expect fine dining. I stopped in here after having a couple of drinks. Didn't have dinner so needed to find something to eat before calling it a night.The bartender recommended this place as not much would be opened. It was a short walk there This place is connected to a gas station but in a separate building. It also has a drive thru window.A pretty good menu. But I went with a gyro platter.The gyro is huge. Hard to finish. Way too many onions for my taste but easily removed. The tazsiki sauce was good. Lots of fries that were nice and hot.The place was pretty clean as I ate there Pretty damn good meal. A little pricey, but I would consider it a good value based on the amount of food in the platter."

Layton Gyros

"I finally decided to try Layton Gyros after a friend's recommendation. Very pleased I did. I had the regular gyro sandwich and it was delicious. I asked that the meat be extra browned and that's exactly the way it was prepared. I'm used to having to purchase an additional sauce cup at other gyro places. But not here. Cup is larger than others and quite tasty. Next time I'll get the Supreme size as I really enjoyed this gyro."

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (96) • $

"Nice little breakfast joint in Brookfield. Seems very popular with local senior crowd.....kinda place where one could easily become a "regular."Prices seem ok but with recent inflation, it's hard to tell. What is obvious is that portion sizes are large. The hash browns were a bit too crunchy (which is better than not crispy), and the corn beef was a tad too salty ergo, lost 1 star. The pancakes were fluffy and came with a nice mini-pitcher of syrup.Service was friendly and homey and prompt."

"I ordered a Greek Salad and a Gyro Sandwich delivered. I accidentally ordered the salad and forgot the Gyro Sandwich and called and they were able to add to my order (Yelp shows to call grub hub but they were not helpful). The salad came with good quality romaine lettuce, olives, tomatoes, onions, sweet peppers, cucumbers, chunks of feta cheese and a sweet salad dressing on the side. Salad also included a warm pita bread. The gyro included onions and two tzikki sauces on the side plus a huge amount of meat. Picture doesn't do it justice it was outstanding."

"Will Oakland gyros get dethroned today because I'm trying to dethrone them.Ok I have been looking at this place for a while now but the lack of good pictures and the small amount of reviews was not enticing to stop by but today I said WTF lets just go.First off this is a gyro/food stand with no dining area but you could stand and eat off the small shelf that goes the length of the street Windows, it's basically take out. This is a cheap eats kind of fast food stand when you look at all the prices. I noticed the gyros were being cranked out at a good pace so I saw I would get some fresh meat for this review.No it's not one of those power house meat coma gyros but it was not one of those anemic ones. First off it didn't look as impressive as Oaklands does. Before I slopped on all the cucumber sauce I sampled the meat and it was not dry but it lacked the depth of flavor because I thought it was tame but seasoned well, it lacked the gamey in your face lamb flavor for my taste and I love lamb.I hated the pita bread because it was tough and chewy and with the first bite I noticed that right away. The cucumber sauce was not as sharp as I like and mostly tasted liked creme cheese but it had a smooth, velvety whipped texture.Overall it's not the supper best but not the supper worst gyro and I will keep looking to topple Oakland gyros because I want definite proof that I feel Oakland gyros is the best in town."

Gus's Gyros

★★★★☆ 3.7 (76) • $

"My Dad and I checked them out on a recent road trip because it was close to the zoo and had good reviews. We were not disappointed--what a great local gem! The staff immediately greeted us. We placed our order easily. The menu had gyros, burgers, hot dogs and fried cheese curds (when in Wisconsin...) among other things. I went to the bathroom and to my surprise, our order was ready when I came back out. The portions were so big we could have split one gyro sandwich. I'm glad we only ordered one side of fries because we were stuffed! The gyros were delicious and not dry. I liked that that the cucumber sauce was served on the side because it can be messy. The fries were crispy and tasted hand cut. We loved our experience here & would definitely come back. The interior was retro cute with tin signs from old gas stations and license plates hanging on the wall and ceilings. It's connected to a gas station, but don't let that deter you. It's really cute and has a separate entrance. Was pleased that the staff thanked us and told us to have a great day on our way out. Even though I'm from out of state, I'll definitely recommend them to friends in the area or to travelers passing through Racine."

In the summer, I love their frozen mint lemonade--such a treat. This time, I went with the classic gyro plate, and it did not disappoint. The fries were perfectly crispy, the gyro was super flavorful, and it even came with our own bottle of tzatziki--life changing! The food came out quickly too!The atmosphere is fast-casual, making it perfect for a quick bite. Just a heads-up: they prefer cash but do accept cards as well!"

"New Favorite!We were on the hunt for fast casual greek eats a few months ago, wanted to try something new, and stumbled upon Brothers Gyros & Pizza. Our experience from beginning to end was outstanding.We entered to find the restaurant neat and sparkling clean. Though they definitely have fast casual vibes (even a drive thru!), when they discovered we were dining there, we were seated and provided menus. So, a nice touch that folks dining in don't have to order at the counter. They also bring your food right to your table--lovely.Their falafel sandwich is ample and bursting with flavor. Their greek fries are spot on perfect--not too much lemon, herbs, and ample fresh and flavorful feta. The service is warm and friendly. Seriously, what's not to love?Get to it!"

"Grillville is a family-owned local business that serves delicious fast-casual dishes of Greek American food, which includes items like gyros, chicken kebabs, pork kebabs, burgers, sandwiches, etc. I have been here once and had a good experience. The restaurant is family-friendly and offers good, fast service. The restaurant was clean, well-lit, and their menu options were reasonably priced. We ordered a gyros sandwich, a chicken kebabs plate w/ a side salad, and a gyro & pork kebab w/ a side salad.Our food was ready in a short time. It was hot and fresh tasting. I liked their gyro the most. Its flavor and texture were on point. The pork kebab was grilled properly as well. It was tender with a good char taste. The tzatziki sauce was creamy and yummy. The side salad with chunks of Feta was delicious. The creamy vinaigrette dressing for the salad added a nice touch. Overall, our visit was good, and we would go back for more. I definitely recommend checking out Grillvile."

"We had Sunday breakfast here. We walked in had a very brief wait for a booth, We sat a a booth that was specifically set up for a table of 3 with ice water . We had a longer wait for service however the waitress did make sure to stop by the table to let us know that she is just finishing up with another table. Since it was my first time I didn't mind though it would have been nice to have coffee cups since flavored creme, butter and half and half was in small bowls. Give me time to read the menu and a few of the other yelp reviews while waiting.My sister ordered poached eggs, Canadian bacon, and pancakes. she enjoyed the eggs, and Canadian bacon. But the pancake was so so.The hash browns were cooked very lightly. Sausage gravy was made with sliced pieces of breakfast sausage links nothing spectacular I would have to say that I have had better from a can. The service is fairly good they could improve by checking on coffee levels more frequently. The water pitcher came around regularly. The busers were clearing tables throughout our meal but it was done loudly."

Gyro Stand

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (58) • $

"I have driven past this place for years and I have it bookmarked so today I finally went over because I love me some gyro meat. As you walk up it is smaller than it looks and dated with a small parking lot.The inside is totally dated also and looks like a 90s hot dog stand with the old menu boards. It's so busy behind the counter with all the menus and things crammed in the kitchen area. There is purple booths and and wire table/chairs and it feels cramped. The menu is pretty big with everything from burgers to sundaes but I'm getting the regular Gyro because it's in the name.The Gyro was the over stuffed kind with out getting the bigger options topped with two tomato slices and tons of thin tender onions, the onions would be great grilled on a burger. The tzatziki sauce was two cups with an off taste. As I took my first bite I thought the pita was thin and fresh with that slight chew which stood up to the over stuff. The Gyro meat was a little disappointing because it was the crispy/dry and super thinly sliced kind, this is why I get excited when I get thick cut juicy Gyro meat from other places. When you slice the Gyro meat razor thin, your slicing the crispy/dry/crust off the hunk so there is no moist meat on the sandwich. I will admit that is some skill with out a deli slicer for consistency because all the Gyro meat was perfect thin sliced, LOL.Overall the Gyro was good but just average and not that knock your Sox off kind which didn't topple my Milwaukee favorite place."

Avli

★★★★☆ 4.4 (113)

"Four of us enjoyed a corner setting in the many-windowed Avli overlooking the city in an interesting way. Great spot for a date or a casual meeting with friends. Ten at a table next to us chose it as the spot to celebrate a graduation. It was a Sunday brunch so the menu offerings may have been skimpier than those found in a full Greek menu, but the choices were well prepared. Nevertheless, prices were on the high side ($9 for a small bowl of Avgolemono soup, $17 for a Gyro wrap with fries, $18 for a chicken Souvlaki-- 2 skewers). If you're looking for a traditional Greek restaurant fix with more reasonable fare, there are a number of choices around town including Greek family restaurants. One negative is the acoustics, which could easily be fixed by a professional. The ceiling/wall arrangements make it difficult to hear across the table. Service, however, was excellent."

Ouzo Cafe

"In A Nutshell:-Ouzo Cafe is a nice Mediterranean restaurant located in downtown MKE.-I was looking for a healthy meal during this trip so I wouldn't get bloated prior to the triathlon.-I was happy to find this restaurant.-I ordered their shish kabobs which comes in 3, you can choose from chicken, pork or beef.-The greek salad was also very good, very flavorful.Overall, the service was friendly & attentive."

Gyro House

★★★★★ 4.6 (14)

"Called in my order (note GrubHub and DoorDash seem to add $1 or so to each item for pickup despite listing "no fees") and it was ready on time.The gyro was delicious and, as is tradition, overloaded with meat! I should've got a 2nd pita and made two sandwiches out of it all.The burger was okay. The patty was a bit pink inside and softer consistency, so I just cooked it another minute at home to make sure it was done properly.I was surprised by the number of tables they had, since from the street I would've guess it was mostly take-out, but nice to see they offer sit down seating as well."
