Gyrosteria Yannis - Centro Città — Restaurant in Bari

Located centrally in Bari, Gyrosteria Yannis promises a taste of Greece, but unfortunately falls short of transporting your tastebuds to the Aegean. While the name might conjure images of authentic Greek gyros, the reality is a rather average pita experience. The gyros itself earns a modest 3 out of 5. It's decent enough to satisfy a quick craving, but lacks the distinctive flavors and quality that would truly impress. The pita was likely standard fare, neither particularly memorable nor disappointing. However, the service seems to be a significant area for improvement, scoring a low 2 out of 5. This suggests potential issues with attentiveness, efficiency, or perhaps even friendliness. Overall, Gyrosteria Yannis offers a convenient and accessible option for a quick bite in central Bari. However, those seeking an authentic Greek gyros experience may want to look elsewhere. It serves its purpose as an average takeaway, but doesn't quite live up to the expectations its name...

This is not a bad place at all especially if you really miss that Greek kebab you had during your trip to Greece but obviously do not expect the full experience ..yet..)). Also do not expect anyone to speak Greek nor behave like one although it does not really have any negative impact to the whole experience.

Service is fast and responsive.

Food tastes fine and there is a wide selection of greek food and beverages available including Greek beers.

Prices are on the low side.

I do recommend this place.

SUGGESTIONS

Add some Greek welcoming and goodbye phrases.

Maybe some low Greek music would do the trick although I understand there are legal...

Terrible customer service

I ordered souvlaki dish (even pointed at it with my finger in the menu), but when it was time to pay I noticed that the item and the price was different. I kindly approached the counter and asked what was going on. I was informed that I ate another type of meat and that this was the price. I didn’t know that I was eating something else than I ordered. It was not my fault that the waiter did’t pay attention to what I was ordering. The waiter told me that I still had to pay for what I ate despite the fact that I didn’t order it. They didn’t see the problem in serving me...
