This place just opened and it is really good. I got the lamb and beef Gyro,with fries and baklava.
The gyro: I asked to add feta and they did it not a problem. I liked it spicy and they gave me a side of even more spice. It is a nice spicy sauce they use. The pita is soft and not thin. Sometimes I get these and the pita is terrible hard or thin and like paper, but they use a thick soft pita. They also brought out some pickles, and small pickled peppers to snack on with our meal. Their tzatziki has a nice flavor. Not too strong and not too light either. Blends well with the spices and the lettuce etc.
The fries:They have a curry salt mix they use to season the fries it is really good and not too much curry.
The baklava: Their baklava is very good. It is not mushy and when you bite into it you can taste the crunch but then the honey flavor hits and perfection. I love that it isn’t dry either. Perfect amount of sauce to texture it’s really good.
The service: They are very friendly and try to make you feel at home and will chat with you. Honest and good food. The food takes a little while to get, I can tell it is fresh. I really hope this place takes off, I will be back.

Read moreI recently visited Harir Gyro & Burger in Orangevale, CA, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience! Mohammad, the manager, is truly amazing, and the staff here are incredibly friendly and helpful. The service is impressively fast, which is always a plus.
The location is very convenient, situated on Greenback with plenty of parking available. I had the falafel gyro and asked for medium spice, and let me tell you, it was OMG delicious! The pita was so soft, and the falafel was spiced perfectly, bursting with flavors. They added Tahini sauce, which took me straight to food heaven! They also gave me a hot sauce on the side that was absolutely yummy.
My taste buds were in heaven, and the food definitely hit the spot! To top it off, they gave me some baklavas that were so yummy and melted in my mouth. This is a fantastic addition to the Orangevale community, and I look forward to coming back soon! The prices are very reasonable too. Highly...
Read moreHarir Gyro was recommended by a friend, so I finally stopped in and got a chicken shawarma to-go. It surpassed my expectations. I am particular about meat quality and the chicken was absolutely delicious. It was thinly sliced, almost shredded. Medium was the perfect spiciness for me, as the coolness of the sauce and veggies balanced it out. Super simple dish and so good. The staff were all very kind as well. I will definitely be returning and recommending to others.
Update: Since my initial review, I have dined here a few times. During my most recent visit, however, I found the chicken shawarma to be overly greasy. This may have been an isolated incident, so I am maintaining my 5-star rating, as my experiences have generally been...
