Gyros House Mediterranean Cuisine — Restaurant in Covington

Wow!! 5 Stars for real.

Back home we have Niko's but if we had a Gyro House, there would definitely be competition.

Staff was very friendly as I stood there like a newbie not knowing how to order. He very politely walked me through what I knew to get where I wanted. There was a little confusion about things but I decided to let him help me get where I was going.

I headed in thinking about a classic Niko's gyro with the usual tomato, onions, feta cheese, kalamata olives, Greek pepperoncinis and of course two tzatziki sauces. What I got was a little bit of that and a lot of delicious. Gyro House serves it up a little differently than Niko's. The sauce is poured right onto the gyro and covered in shredded cheese, not sure if it was feta but it was good.

The fries were seasoned with something amazing and smothered with a delicious white creamy sauce. I didn't ask for that and was just looking for regular fries but I was also just saying to the guy, "uh huh sure". 😅 Had the fries been really hot they would have been divine but the fries were a little cold. It didn't really matter at the end of the day and my son devoured his.

My son hasn't had much Greek or Mediterranean food as I usually get Niko's when he's not around. Until the last year or so he was your average American picky eater kid ordering burgers, chicken tenders or pepperoni pizza when going out to eat. I'm so glad his taste buds arrived and he's now willing to just try new things, and as it turns out he's a spicy guy.

He's also a big Marvel fan. Why does that matter in this review you ask? Well.....let me just quote Tony Stark and say. "Have you ever tried shawarma? There's a shawarma joint about two blocks from here. I don't know what it is but I want to try it." We too did not know what shawarma was but tried it. He took one bite and muttered, "wow...just wow." He's still a picky eater so he said he doesn't want to know what's inside but asked if we could go back again before town. (If he found out something inside was something he didn't like, he'd never be able to enjoy it again) 😆

We're going back....if you're craving a gyro or Greek food you need to check this place out. I read the reviews and need to try their falafel, we were just too full we didn't even...

I'm really disappointed in this restaurant. Twice, in the past year, we ordered delivery from here and both times they completely missed giving us items that we had ordered and paid for. The first time, we drove there week-of and ordered more food for dinner and were given (for free) the forgotten dessert. The second time, we took pictures of the receipt and food when it arrived at our house, but by the time it arrived, the restaurant was closed for the night (I did try to call, and there was no option for a voicemail). Fast forward to tonight, a few months later, but with proof of previous purchase, I tried to order multiple meals for my family at full price and asked that they include the one that we previously paid for but did not receive ($22 value). They refused, stating that it was too far in the past. I understand that I should have acted sooner, but they can verify the original order and I wasn't even just requesting that they offer me free food - I was ordering multiple other complete meals. No apology or offer of anything else, simply "We can cancel your order for tonight." Absolutely, and all future orders from our family. I recommend looking elsewhere to feed...

I had an interesting lunch at the Gyro House today with my wife and young daughter. The place wasn't very busy when we showed up and so we immediately ordered and sat down waiting for our food. Quick note what we ordered was pretty basic, only request was to hold the tomato on my gyro- even made sure to repeat my request a second time prior to completing the order.

We ended up waiting nearly 20 minutes for our food and when it came out he repeated our order only when he gave me my gyro he said mine was without onions. I immediately told him my order was incorrect- he asked why? I told him I had asked for no tomato, and so he says "Well, I'm pretty sure you said no onions" at which point I let him know I even repeated "no tomato" prior to paying. He had a confused look and said fine, and in my opinion had a poor attitude towards a paying customer.

I opted to not have them remake my food, being it had taken 20 minutes for our original order (2 gyros and a fry). It was an unfortunate experience that was only made worse by the attitude displayed after realizing the mistake. Food quality is most important closely followed by customer service and unfortunately they got...
