Spiro's Mediterranean Cuisine

We had a delightful lunch on a weekday recently. We tried both types of gyros, chicken and beef/lamb combo. They arrived hot, fresh and generously filled with the shaved rotisserie meats. Neither of us was able to eat more than about 1/2 of our sandwiches. It made for a very tasty and reasonabley priced meal in downtown La Jolla.

Not quality Greek/Mediterranean food, tried a variety of meats and they all came out pretty dry. Flies are everywhere and staff doesn't seem to get along so plates were sitting out of the kitchen waiting to be served for a while. No one in the kitchen is wearing gloves or hair nets and one older woman had long blonde hair. This same woman was eating the food while preparing in the kitchen. Very off putting. I didn't check the reviews beforehand, but now see nearly everyone has commented on this same woman. The establishment is really pretty and located walking distance to the beach. The lady who took our order was very sweet, I just think sanitary efforts could be greatly improved on.

Enjoyed a nice lunch here; had gyros and chicken kabob plates with rice, Greek salad, pita and tahini sauce. The food was cooked well, flavorful and fresh. There's a really nice seating area outside with a good view of the shore. Definitely recommend for a casual lunch or dinner.

Delicious food, I got the gyros sandwich and lentil soup, abundant and amazing!!!Service is incredible and very nice ambiance

Good spot for Mediterranean/Greek food near La Jolla Cove. Got the lentil and vegetable soup which was pretty good. The chicken kabob platter had enough food for 2 people (if you're not very hungry). The chicken was cooked perfectly and tasted delicious with the yoghurt sauce. Overall very good experience.

Their calamari and Gyros are the must haves! Great view of the waterfront from the outdoor sitting area.

I think the quality and customer service have gone down significantly or maybe because it was TO-GO they figured we didn't care. The biggest gripe that we had was with the sampler, typically, and in the past the sampler was hearty and full of a good amount of the different falafel and items. This time, after going all the way home we saw that they only gave 2 of each item, a measly scoop of hummus and a random handful of lettuce. Then as if it even made any sense there was double the amount of pita bread... I don't know if this was an off day, but a sampler that is $20+ bucks should be more substantial and packed with more care. I doubt we are going to be giving any more money to this establishment, I am disappointed because in the past I never had such bad portions, and you can blame inflation but this is not okay.

We were pretty pumped to try Spiro's, as it is a welcome addition to the La Jolla restaurant scene. We don't really have a reliable place to go for food here so we were happy to try this. We also love Greek food and the fast casual format. The inside of the space was inviting, with ample seating for our group of four. The menu had lots to choose from, so we got Greek salad, spanakopita, and baklava for dessert. Friendly service, fast preparation, reasonable prices, and we even scored parking around the corner. What's not to like?

Delicious gyro overflowing with meat! Friendly service.Clean restaurant. Good location.I'll be back!

Make edible food.Had lunch with a Greek friend, and were disgusted by the food quality. This is as close to good Greek food as the US is to china. My friend had the Avgolemono soup with a skewer of chicken kabob and found the chicken in both dishes to be dry stringy and overcooked. I had a Greek salad with chicken gyros. The chicken. Was very dry and appeared not fresh. The salad was unappealing and there was very little feta. Both of us did not finish our food and left more than half of our dishes. Be warned! Do not try to eat at this place!
