Gyro max — Restaurant in Riverside

Gyro Max is a welcome addition to the Dayton/Riverside area. The interior of the restaurant is fresh, clean, bright and welcoming to sit and enjoy your meal. Employees (which one I believe was the owner) were extremely kind and definitely aim to please. Our meal was to-go for 5 people (3 of which were under 5). Food was extremely fresh. The vegetables were really crisp and definitely have not been sitting around in the cooler. Chicken strips (got for the kids) were your typical chicken strip. They tasted as if they were made with rice flour. The fries were definitely a tasty side and would recommend trying. The Dolmades appetizer was served hot and had some sort of red garnish that tasted like tomato sauce. (Have never had that on dolmades before). They were good. The Gyro (Handheld) made with Gyro (Lamb and Beef) meat was really loaded! They did not skimp on this dish. The veggie gyro was a bit too overloaded and would recommend skipping the handheld version and just order a salad. It had an excellent flavor but was missing the hummus the online menu from their website indicated it would have. The tzatziki was very mild and was lacking cucumber flavor and held onto the Greek yogurt flavor and thick texture. The falafel were a bit dry and required a lot of moisture. The pita bread on the Gyros and as a side were thick, soft and tasty. Overall, I rated Gyro Max a 5 because it is definitely a recommend for fast and QUALITY Greek food in the area. The interior atmosphere is a real seller and the value for the money is definitely there for their Gyro's. Will definitely return, but will skip...

I just had to check out a quick stop restaurant that had a 4.9 review score. This is a quick place to grab a bite, not fancy at all. That being said, it was clean and ready for customers when it opened at 11, and people were ready to enter. We had chicken shawarma and gyros, which were great and flavorful. I got a side salad instead of fries. I think it is one of the best side salads I've had, with varied vegetables, feta, and Greek dressing (some oil and vinegar variation, I enjoyed it). They had a spit spinning with either beef or lamb, to and we were the only ones I heard ordering chicken, so I think maybe I missed out on what they were best at, but I have no complaints on my food. Be aware it is messy with sauce and spillover, but I really like that, so long as I don't ruin my clothes. Very basics in fountain drinks and a decent selection of bottled drinks. Try the Greek fries (with feta and I think that Greek dressing). I kinda wish I got both the salad and the fries, both were great. I'm sure some will be bothered to have to ask for a key to the bathroom, but I appreciated a nice clean restroom. I'm sure they have good reasons to have had to do that. A great stop, and you could tell by the crowd there at lunchtime that they were regulars who knew what they...

I’ve been to this Greek restaurant twice, and my experiences have been very different.

The first time, my mom and I were new to Greek cuisine, but the person who helped us was amazing. They took the time to explain the menu, answer our questions, and guide us through our choices. It made for an enjoyable experience, and we left loving the food.

Unfortunately, our second visit wasn’t nearly as positive. We went in hoping to recreate that first experience, but the service we received this time was disappointing. The person behind the counter seemed distracted, rude, and uninterested in helping us. He was talking on his phone through an earpiece while serving us, which felt unprofessional. My mom and I had planned to eat inside, but the uncomfortable atmosphere led us to pack our food and leave instead.

The food itself is good, but the service can really make or break the experience. I hope management addresses this issue because first impressions matter, and we know they can do better based on our...
