Snack Gyro

Tl;dr: food was under-seasoned and unimpressive. Until they get their act together on the food, look elsewhere Our regular Mediterranean place (Mawadda in Rainier valley) was closed tonight so decided to try Snack Gyro out as it's so close. We ate from here about 5 years ago ago and it was pretty good then....Everything we ordered was bland and underseasoned. Falafel were also over cooked (fryer oil was too hot). They don't provide any toum sauce (the garlic sauce) so we had to use our own Karam's. The rice and hummus in my wife's lamb/beef dinner plate? Tasted like bland paste. The kofta kebab sandwich was just the gyro meat chopped up more finely, didn't taste like a proper kofta. I see other recent reviews that also mention bland food. Really hope these folks get their act together but not sure we are going to chance it again

I've been Yelped! Perfect example in being misled by Yelp - 4.5 star review and one dollar sign? This was an expensive mistake - $45 two person lunch, w/a can of coke. It's a small outlet with wobbly tables and a greasy floor. Not that I care, I just wanted a great schwarma. Instead we both got a very simply, mostly lettuce filled tortilla with some chicken - guessing 4 oz tops. Since the "value meal" included, "fries, rice, or salad," I asked for the tabbouleh and was charged an additional $5 (isn't tabbouleh salad?). Food was edible, extremely bland. In addition, one bottle of ketchup, and no napkins graced the tables. When the cooks seemed busy, my daughter had to retrieve paper towels from the bathroom. I'll give them an extra star as they brought the food to our table. Funny, there was a Subway around the corner which would have been sooo much better.

Sad to give it such a low rating. It's been a few years since I've had this place. I got a gyro salad which was generously packed. The whole dish did not taste like mediterranean food at all. The lamb gyro meat was not seasoned well. Thle hummus did not taste like hummus. I eat fast and it took me a while to finish. My sister got a chicken hummus dish and she felt the same. She didn't even finish her meal.

Ordered the beef lamb plate and gyro fries on Uber eats this evening. I'm always skeptical how the food will be when ordering from Uber eats but the food was still hot and delicious! The beef lamb combo was tender and flavorful. The portion was large that I have enough for lunch tomorrow. I also enjoyed the salad, hummus, and pita. Will definitely order again without hesitation.

I came here on a Sunday afternoon because the nearby Mexican place was full.. I am going to say this place is average at best. I ordered the dinner plate which consisted of lamb-beef gyro meat, baba ganoush (eggplant), salad, and pita bread. The rice, although very pretty with many specks of warm colors, was bland and unexciting. The sald was iceberg lettuce and some vegetables. Bland if not for the feta cheese. I am not even sure if there was any salad dressing. The lamb meat was okay. Not salty. The eggplant was also bland but I did love the olive that was on it. My husband ordered the snack gyro plate which was three different types of meat in different sections of the gyro wrap. It came with fries and salad. The wraps are better than the dinner plate in my opinion because it didn't have bland rice. Fries were okay. They were a bit limp even with not much sauce on them. The service was fine. The server seemed cheerful and nice. Would I visit again? No, I think there are better gyro restaurants in seattle. Overall, this place is not bad. It is just okay.

We live in Seattle but love going to Burien to meet our Tacoma fam. Nice mid-way point and lots of great eats. We've now added Snack Gyro to our list because the food was chock full of the good stuff. Spices,herbs, a little love sprinkled in. I had a falafel wrap and my boo had chicken. We shared the Greek fries which were done right sexy. Prices are reasonable and service is prompt. We noticed lots of delivery drivers and other working folks were stopping by, they know the secret. Limited outdoor seating but lots inside.

Got the falafel and hummus platter and dinner special. The falafel was yummy and not dry at all, but the hummus was a bit bland and didn't have much flavor besides the hot sauce in the corner. The pita bread that came with it was nice and soft. The dinner special lamb and beef was juicy and flavorful.

I've been in search for a good Mediterranean restaurant for about a month now.I'm new to the area so I have been all over!I finally found this hidden gem!Fast and friendly service! Lots of choices!The chicken plate was flavorful, tender and delicious! The salad had these little pickles that were amazing!The location is a bit tricky but it's almost on the corner so it's great for people watching!There's a very casual ambiance with almost a take out feel to it. They have several grocery store items that are common to a Mediterranean market which really affects the ambiance. As I looked out the window, I could almost imagine some potted plants to make me feel as if I was really there! Some art of the region might boost it a notch up to justify pricing, which was a bit on the high side.

Humble no frills restaurant with friendly employees and amazing food. We were impressed by the portion sizes and freshness. We will absolutely be coming here regularly.

I was a disappointed after seeing photos on here and going in with high expectations, the food was mediocre the fry's aren't the thick cut like I've seen in previous reviews they're very thin the shawarma looked nothing like what I've seen in a previous post the flavor was very plain, the annoying thing was the cook didn't put any effort in my shawarma literally was already coming apart before I can even get a grip of it. The staff was pretty friendly so I'll give them that but overall. I will post a previous review photo vs what I got as a comparison.
