Wonderful team, great food, nice atmosphere. Fantastic spot.

Great service, and value + smiling faces. Delicious sandwich gyru meat cut in chuncks but we prefer small slices cut fresh.

They DELIVERED our Gyro, and Gyro Bowl really quickly.Hot and fresh as they say.The aroma of Gyro meat and saffron rice immediately filled our home. My 2 year old wandered into the kitchen, entranced, her eyes instinctively searched for the source if the overwhelmingly enticing scent. I was already lifting a piece of hot, juicy Gyro meat into the air, dangling it above my mouth. I dropped it and it fell in like a something falling into that star wars something.The meat was nicely flavored, good texture, juicy, and slightly greasy. Very nice. There was enough of said meat that had I ended up with it on a sloop, far out at sea with nothing but salt and a 50 gallons of water, I could preserve enough meat to survive a month with the careful application of discipline and precautionary measures.Alas, I ate every last morsel.I'm so disgusted with myself.

My wife and I ate there last night for the first time. Other reviews are correct that the hummus is bland and the pita tastes like a cheap alternative. Our "eat in" food was served in Styrofoam containers with plastic silverware. I will say the Greek salad with chicken was good. We won't be returning.

Genuinely one of the best places in Carmel to eat, especially for the price. I grew up near Chicago and this is the best gyro I’ve had outside of the city. I don’t know what they put on these things, but the flavors are awesome. Highly recommend for a quick bite!

Not too impressed, the flavor was average and the gyro meat quite greasy.A lot of food for the money, but not enough pita or toppings to eat all the meat they give you. Buy extra pitas and a salad to bring home for another meal or two.

I stopped in here for lunch this week as I was craving a Greek salad and somehow we made a wrong turn and totally missed seeing Garbanzo, so here we are. You order at the counter (I think?) and then we waited at a booth for our meal, which was served in to go containers. Maybe they have table service and we just messed up but we only saw one person taking orders and then disappearing to the kitchen so I think he was running the whole show. Anyway; I ordered the Greek salad with shawarma chicken and it was very good! Definitely a big salad and I couldn't finish it all. Ask for extra Tzatziki as you just get a tiny to go cup. Hubby had the gyro plate and as you can see from the photo; it's an incredible amount of meat, overwhelmingly so for one human to consume. He tried, but we ended up taking most of it home for my daughter to eat. Pita on the bottom, a bunch of meat, and pita on the top. Served with a side salad, so no other toppings, so he used the side salad contents to fill his gyro. He said the meat was good and flavorful, but next time he'd just order the gyro. You could share this thing between 3-4 people is my guess! We had an iced tea and a bottled water, total bill was $32 before tip. Service was friendly and quick- they seem to have a bustling to go business as well.

Hubby and I love Greek and Mediterranean food. Really wanted to like this place and feel awful that my review isn't more favorable...but the point of yelp is to give honest impressions. The food is that portions were HUGE. The bad is that the food did not taste good at all. Hubby had a shawarma wrap and it tasted nothing like what we've had in many other places. It was greasy and just tasted weird. The gyro meat was also very meh. The hummus tasted like something out of a supermarket prepackaged cup. Sadly, we threw out majority of what we bought ;(

Its a little hole in the wall place. Has a family owned feel to it. The size of the gyros are hugh portions for a good price. Great for lunch.

Went for lunch yesterday around 1 pm and waited at the counter for 12 minutes when someone emerged from the back I ask for a regular Gyro and he said it would be 30 minutes, so I left.
Not a fan of their gyro seasoning, but that's a personal preference. Marked down because more expensive and less food than Adel's. Unfortunately, Adel's does not deliver, so I've ordered from here twice. Will try someplace else next time. Still, the best is ordering ahead from Adel's when I'm out already.

The food was delicious. We ordered the hummus with gyro meat, the stuffed grape leaves and the gyro plate. It was for two of us and we had so much left over. Huge portions and the two gentlemen were super nice. Service was great.

We have gone here several times. The people are friendly, the food is plentiful and tasty. The gyro meat is in chunks rather than the long slivers we were used to but very good. The only drinks available are bottles from the cooler.

This business also operates under the name "Mediterranean Rice Bowls" through food delivery services. I know this based on address and business phone number. I placed an order for some rice bowls containing all three of their protein options: chicken kebab, chicken shawarma, and beef and lamb gyro. My order was promptly canceled through Uber eats. I called to ask why and was informed they're out of the chicken kebab and shawarma. Then as I suggested they either update the menu or find a way to communicate better I was hung up on. Very poor way to treat a potential customer. They won't get another chance at my business.
