T & G Gyros — Restaurant in Calumet Township

I hadn't been to many diners in the last year so when I got the chance I stopped by T&G to see what they had to offer. The interior is your standard hole in the wall diner

Customer service: Cashier seemed grumpy. I don't know if it was the fact that I wore a mask or her just being crabby, but if it was the mask then take the sign that says "masks required to enter" off your door. I noticed she also was crabby & seemed to not know how to take a phone order when someone called in. She acted like it was a telemarketer calling her at home, proceeding to ask how they got the number (they dialed it from Google Maps,) where they were calling from, etc. instead of simply asking delivery or pick-up then taking their order since it was pretty obvious the conversation was about ordering food. I honestly think she talked the customer out of placing an order since they just ended the call on her.

The chef himself was very friendly, greeted regulars by name & diligently prepared the food. People definitely were vibing with him which she should take a cue from since she barely spoke to people then stood silently in the background the entire time I was there. 3/5

Fries: Shoestring. Light gold. Massive amount...easily seveal potatoes worth of fries. A good amount of salt. Fries are slightly dry, but overall good. 4/5

Double cheese burger - I usually expect a diner to have a decent burger & this met that standard. Would like a bit more cheese (a higher quality cheese would be nice too) on a double cheese burger. Perfectly cooked & warm, but for a menu item named the "Big Baby" it didn't hold up to it's name since it only had sauteed onions (if these were supposed to be caramelized they were way undercooked,) pickles, mustard & ketchup. It could've used some fresh tomatoes & maybe some lettuce. 3/5

Overall T & G Gyros is ok. I'm not tempted to try out the gyros though. It's a bit underwhelming, but it won't break your bank. The doublecheese burger "Big Baby" combo came with a ton of fries & a drink for a little over $8.

T & G Gyros is the number 1 Blue Island staple you should have tried by now. The food is absolutely stunning, for fast food is amazing and really fast. It was recommended by employees and local citizens to try this place and was told the price was reasonable. By now i have tried every single thing in the menu but my first time order was the big baby, a burger with a drink and fries. i always go with number one on every single new restaurant i go and to try their signature dish and of course it was delicious. next time i came back i order myself the gyro platter, fries and a drink and wow, that was my first time trying a gyro and let me tell you it was so mouthwatering. I told myself that the price was pretty average until I got the dish.. the gyro was huge!! Very generous is portions and the gyro was full of meat. since then i always get the fries. they are so addicted. i always see myself coming back for more Definitely worth the money and it was very tasty. Very good and very nice service, the people working there are so friendly and amazing. I will definitely come back, because i have been coming back for the...

Omg omg omg !! There will never be a gyros place like this again !! Please don't ever go outta business !! The meat is delish but the sauce is the boss when it comes to gyros and this place is the boss of ALL gyros !! Used to live in Blue Island back in the day n now live in AZ. Every time I come in I go there omg best gyros on the planet !!! They have lots of other foods too but I only get the gyros platter , they're fries r thin n crispy. Pita is delish also ! Place still looks the same as it did back in the day and what's really funny is all the ppl that worked there then are still working there too AND they all look the exact same as they did back in the day like they've been frozen in time !! It's bizarre !! I'll go there 1st thing every time n then a couple more times lol . Prices aren't bad either !! You get a ton of food it's well worth the trip !! Do yourself a favor n go go go !! I guarantee you won't be...
