Gyro King — Restaurant in Florida

I’m sick of this place, tried and tried again but with mediocre food, dry meat and downright RUDE customer service, I’ll take my money to the Mobil gas station deli counter on Curlew or trek up to Tarpon to get a gyro. They will overcharge and mess up your order given any chance. Tonight, I placed a to-go order and expected the menu price because I was ordering half of the normal meat volume and asked politely to swap for more veggies. When I paid the blonde gal at the counter and told her “I would’ve ordered it as is had I know you were going to upcharge me $3.50, you should let people know next time the substitutions they’re asking for cost more”, she was indignant, and should not be working within a 200 mile radius of a nice beach town that should be catering and welcoming to tourists and locals alike. Ordering “extra” of something is a totally different story but explaining there is an upcharge for a simple swap of veggies for meat is something, as someone who worked in food service for 10+ years in Palm Harbor, that is considered standard practice and just common courtsey. I was afraid to send the food back and reorder for fear there would be spit in my pita given how nasty she was to me and hope the whole $1 they charged me for literally 1 olive helps them invest in employee training or finding better front of the house staff. This was the straw that broke the camel’s back as I’ve had terrible service and food here many a time but do remember the good ol days when they were a decent joint given I’ve lived in pinellas county for 24 years. Good luck and gods speed folks, youre...

Gyro King is by far one of the best deals out there. When you want something fresh and delicious. This is the place to go. Call ahead, eat in, or take out. Wednesday is buy one Gyro get one free. Thursday special is buy one Cuban get one free. First time I tried their Cuban. And was it delicious. 37 years here in Tampa Bay, I've eaten a lot of Cubans. And this one was perfect . That's a real compliment coming from me, especially since I had a restaurant in Pinellas County for 20 years. We had a great Cuban sandwich. I'm just so grateful that I can actually get a Cuban sandwich now in Pinellas County. That tastes good. They definitely have one of the best Cuban sandwich In the Tampa Bay area.The fresh pork was so flavorful. And of course, the best part was the fresh crispy Cuban bread. The traditional Cuban bread has a palm leaf. If it doesn't have a palm leaf, it's not Cuban bread. Stop in any day of the week. There's always something delicious cooking . And they have different specials throughout the week. I've been going there for over 30 years. And the food gets better every year. One restaurant, you definitely won't be disappointed. You've tried the rest. Now try the best🙂 Tell them ShellyG sent...

I used to enjoy this place but I have to adjust my review to my current opinion. There is a very rude cashier named Kimberley who charged me extra for bleu cheese even though it's clearly advertised to be free right on the menu. She was very confrontational when questioned about it. When asked she first claimed she is "just doing what she's told" and that she is "just an employee", but then when I asked for a manager she claimed that she is the manager! She even tried to say that they only charge for bleu cheese on days when the wings are on sale. No matter how you slice it, it's disrespectful and deceptive. I'm quite disappointed as I have been getting gyros there on Wednesdays for years, but this is the first time I've had an experience with this employee. If I have to continue to deal with her I won't be eating here any more. There's tons of other excellent options for Greek food in the area so there's no reason to put up with this. The $1.50 I was charged isn't as big of a deal to me as the way Kimberley chose to handle the situation, by stooping to personal insults and grinning at me in malicious joy after I expressed my complaint to...
