  • I am going to be the dissenting voice on this place, but I don't think it isn very good. Everything it does, Niro's Gyros does both better and cheaper. I honestly think Zorba's has kind of a privileged place due to nostalgia - it is an institution and one of the few places on Green Street that hasn't changed in the last decade (and beyond). So maybe I am not the target audience. But the thing is, I love gyros! They're greasy enough that I don't get them too often, but I do love them. This brings us to the main problem: Zorba's gyros are not very good. I have been used to the gyros in my hometown (gigantic), the ones in Naperville (huge), and the ones from Niro's (also huge). The ones at Zorba's are comparatively small. This is not a deal-breaker - I don't need the mountains of meat all the time. The problem is that the meat is not very good. It has kind of a gritty texture and an off flavor. It reminds me of the frozen gyro meat you can get at grocery stores. They offer an array of sauces, but the tzatziki is key and it's not very good either. I see rave reviews of the fries, and while they are good, they aren't exceptional. Even on a discount day, the fry and gyro meal is more than other places in town and I just did not like it as much. I thought the first time might've been an unfair representation, but on the next visit I could not finish the gyro - the texture of the meat got to me. Decor is old-fashioned as fits a local institution. There is sort of a grease-haze that hangs in the air.
