| - These Gyros are so good they make me wanna Gyr-ate my hips and yell "Gyro-nimo." Although I'm not sure why I would because that would be both weird and sexual. Then again, things that are both weird and sexual are usually right up my proverbial (and literal, if I'm lucky) alley.
What to get: Mini Gyro
What else: Minime was a really crap character, to be honest, in retrospect
But: Hindsight is always 20 20
How to improve: Hard to say, really. Not too much improving to be done. Maybe slightly fresher veggies, such as at Best Gyros out in East Cleveland. Maybe try out different Gyro meats and some authentic Athens Pork style Gyros? Also, because these are so cheap, they sometimes taste slightly more cheaply made. Best Gyros proves you can have perfect tasting Gyros at basement prices. Gyro World take note! The decor here is also rather dreary. But I don't care about such things. However, for other people who do, they might spruce it up a bit at some point. Really cool arcade machines though - throwback style - for the kids. Love that.
So I went looking for some salt and pepper in a big bucket. I was just fishing for condiments.
Now on with the compliments.
The service here is really lovely. They were a little tired the night of the World Series but who wasn't. A bad night for Cleveland. The Gyro they made for me was hot and delicious and I loved every bite. Easily one of the 20 best in the country.
How can you be one of the 20 best Gyros in North America, but not even the best Gyro in Cleveland? Gyro World - that's how. Their products are delicious, and easily the most satisfying Gyro in the West Burbs of the great city known as The Land. However, the East Burbs rival (Best Gyros) is probably even better.
Both are extraordinarily cheap (especially if you get a mini Gyro), and both will solve your Gyro craving forthwith henceforth hitherto, whatever that means. The young males working here (I know you like that, bro, and it's cool with me, I do too) are super friendly, and will gladly whip it out for you... I mean, whip one up for you... if you have 5 dollars or so to donate to their proverbial piggy bank.
In Cleveland it's all Chicago-style Gyros (this is, after all, like a smaller version of Chicago), which means they're the big lamb-and-beef spindles with the knives slicing the meat off them. Probably my favourite kind - not authentic to Greece but definitely authentic to Chi-town. Ironically, Cleveland has an argument to doing Chicago Gyros better than Chicago.
Other top Gyros in the country are Oakland Gyros in Milwaukee, Nick's in Atlanta, Gyro World (not related) in Queens, Yia Yia's in DC, Greek Gourmet or Gali's in Pitt, a place I haven't reviewed yet in Davenport, Ekko's and a few others in Houston, and if I'm forgetting anyone, I apologize. Here in Cleveland, Frank's in Ohio City does it well, too.
And if this was in Europe, it'd be Euro World. Whereas if you were only allowed to visit it once in your life, it'd be YOLO World. Thankfully you can keep coming here, over and over, and at these prices, you can get seriously rotund and portly off Gyros. Try it. Thank me later. Gyr welcome.
