Greek Gyro Guy — Restaurant in Vancouver

After Many trips driving down 164th, I have always spotted the Greek Gyro Guy with a delightful space, food cart and outdoor seating. Finally made it out to stop in and try a spread of their goods! My friend and I were very hungry and excited to have a spread of fun Mediterranean food. One of us is Vegan so Dennis perfectly tailored the meal to our food preferences.

This restaurant is family owned and operated by Dennis and his Wife. They make everything fresh to order, and the taste and food is definitely made with care and great!

We decided to get two Mediterranean plates and a double chicken Gyro for our helper on our project.

Dennis was a delight to speak with and chat while we were waiting for him to build our order. He took great care and attention to detail and we loved the sweet Baklava which we ate as we waited for our meal. Food prep and turnaround was quick and it’s quite nice to have a Drive Through option to enjoy our A/C while the food was being made.

There is a Gas station next door if you need a top up while waiting for your food and there are tables to enjoy your meal with any size of group. Kid friendly too.

If you are ever in the area and in need of a delicious, healthy and fulfilling meal of Greek cuisine, I highly recommend a visit to The Gyro Guy.

Thank you for taking the time to read my honest review and I hope you enjoy your amazing...

i support small businesses as much as possible, however, i won't be supporting this business in the future. they are new owners of this business. i feel so scammed and deceived. they should be ashamed of charging these unreasonable prices for what they give you and embarrassed for trying to pass off as good quality "Mediterranean" food. this was the worst value ever. i must've lost my mind or had low blood sugar to have paid over $17 not including tip for the lowest quality store-bought food items. what they gave me doesn't match what is advertised on the menu photos or the online photos. their Mediterranean platter + chicken consists of 1 small dry pita, 2 tbsp of barely edible hummus, 2 tbsp of tzatziki, 7 grape tomatoes, 6 thin slices of cucumbers, a tiny container of feta cheese, a tiny container of mustard (which has never been served with Mediterranean food before or a gyro), 2 tiny falafel cut in half, 4 tiny kalamata olives cut in half, 2 tiny hard/dry dolmas, which were disgusting and hard to bite into 🤢 (cheap canned variety), 5 strips of "chicken" that were bland and questionable if it was even real chicken meat. think turkey bacon, but less meaty and less flavorful. it felt like it weighed less than an ounce bc it was so light. who's giving all the high ratings? friends and family? would you pay over...

After driving by Greek Gyro Guy for years, my wife came home one evening with two gyros for us to try. She raved about how kind the owners were, and how she would love to go back as soon as possible for me to meet them.

After a few weeks, we did, in fact, come back for dinner one evening. Needless to say, she was right to want to come back. I was greeted by the nicest man at the window who seemed genuinely happy to have customers wanting to buy his food. He made conversation with my wife and I, and was very friendly/sociable.

The actual food itself? Delicious. The menu is very focused and not overloaded with different options, but still has a variety of ways to customize your food (which is really nice). There are some very tasty dessert options as well (we had one of their pumpkin cheesecake brownies, but there were lemon bars and baklava as well). It also felt fairly priced for what we were given, especially considering that at a restaurant I have paid more for smaller portions.

Overall, this place is wonderful, and the people who run it are a good 80%, if not more, of the reason that I will continue to return regularly. This is a place that makes you want to support small and...
