Istanbul Mediterranean is definitely an added bonus along the famous Las Vegas Blvd Strip. It is located in Bally's Grand Bazaar Shops with flourishing eateries nearby. The eye-catching vertical rotisserie is similar to Greek gyros and Mexican Al pastor. The short menu makes it an ideal quick fix food to go, but seats are limited within the Bazaar Shops.
When there's a gyro on the menu, it's what I usually order. I came here for lunch and they weren't quite ready. I was told to come back in 15 minutes hoping to have the freshest meat on hand. I ordered the beef and lamb combination Turkish sandwich style. You have options for the type of veggies and two different types of sauces- white and red. Their toppings are unlike your Greek Gyro version such as having pickles on gyros which I opted out.
I was not too happy that the meat I was given was pre-sliced and overcooked. It was also hard and chewy. The seasoning and white sauce used were not as flavorful compared to what I am accustomed to with the Greek version. The beef and lamb with all the fixings still had a lot of wiggle room. The price of $9.95 with no sides included, I'll stick to my neighborhood shish kebab place for all the right reasons.
