Mr Greek Giro — Restaurant in Sandwell

⭐️ ⭐️⭐️ AMAZING ⭐️⭐️⭐️

After meeting the main man mr giro in London on a night out, we met by chance & had a brief conversation. I mentioned I travel to Birmingham alot & that’s when he revealed it - ‘I make the best gyros in Birmingham’ A audacious statement….. as a big gyro lover myself, I took up his claim & told him I would see him in his restaurant one day.

Fast forward I find myself outside mr giro’s shop its self, in all its glory. As I enter I am slapped in the face with the beautiful smell of off the herbs & seasoning in the air…. I am in herb heaven at this point. I wait briefly & there he was, the main man himself mr giro. Without saying a word to me, he give me a thumbs up followed by a wink & proceeded to walk off.

At this point I was confused, hungry & wondering will I ever get my gyro ! As the moments passed, I started to wonder if he was telling the truth or is this some type of setup. As I am considering leaving ‘STOP’ … I turn around only to see me giro with what can only be described as an angel in his hand in the form of a gyro.

He placed in my hand & said all but one word ‘ eat ‘ slightly taken back by this I looked over at him but the look on his face, I knew this man was passionate about his craft. I picked up & inspected the delightful looking gyro, it was like staring into heaven 😍

As I took one bite, flavours racing around my mouth faster than Lewis Hamilton, red lining every gear. I was taken back, I looked over to mr giro with tears in my eyes expressing how good it was.

Mr giro took a bow & left …. I will give it to him

He wasn’t lying about the best gyros in Birmingham ! Surely in the world if you ask me !?

Until we...

First time visiting Mr Greek Giro, and I have to say quite a pleasant experience. A small Greek restaurant in Bearwood, West Midlands, we didn't book but there was room for us at the time, there was 7 of us but the seating arrangements were typically for 4 but this wasn't a problem for them, they quickly adjusted the tables and seats for us allowing for us all to sit together. Staff were very friendly. In fact, the girl who served us was amazing and didn't faulter once. The food, as you will see from the photos, was just amazing and in abundance, and as tasty as it looks. The atmosphere was quite comfortable with Greek music playing just in the background, and the nice thing was there was no pressure on how long we stayed there, just a really nice dining experience. It's not posh, but it is more than comfortable and very clean it's definitely a place I will be revisiting soon. Cost wise, I think it's very reasonable. I had the Musaca, and some had the 4 sharing platter, which was massive. My meal was extremely tastful and just the right amount. The 4 sharing platter wasn't finished just because there was so much, but the nice touch was that they gave us a box to take what was left home with us. All in all, a really nice and enjoyable evening out with friends and a place we will deffinatly be reviting. Give them a try. Just a point to know, there isn't a car park, but there is lots of curb side parking...

I generally review a place that I visit straight away but last night I was blown away by how good the food was that I had to go again today to make sure I want dreaming. I came to this place on a recommendation and there was no disappointment. I had a takeaway on both occasions but the restaurant itself is very clean and the atmosphere was vibrant. Staff were friendly and on hand to explain what the dishes are to suit your needs.

The food itself I cannot express how good it was. I had the mixed meat wrap on the first visit which consisted of pork and chicken, including salad and chips in a flat bread. The meat was juicy and full of flavour, the flat bread was not rubbery or soaked and the herby taste was just right. On my second visit I had the mixed meat meal which had 4 pieces of bread and chips all in a big box which held some weight. The box itself was good as it's foil lined so kept the food nice and warm. Again it so...
