Mr Greek Gyros - Halsted St

We were out late exploring Chicago and came back to our hotel and all the restaurants were closing at 10pm (Thursday). Walked a couple blocks and found this Greek restaurant open, the food was good and quick to come out after ordering. They pack the protein in HEAVY, the fries were unsalted but crispy so I can’t complain. I ordered #1 combo and some onion rings 11/10 ( couldn’t have been more perfect ) , everything was delicious. My gf got the #2 combo and said it was good also, restaurant was clean, well kept, and easy to order with 2 registers where they give you a number they call when the food is ready. —-(my only complaint is no water available )—

Everything is good except for the rice. I don’t know how else to describe it other than the rice tastes like the cheap rice you’d get with school lunches. Mushy with a very slight hint of Mexican rice seasoning.

I came for an early dinner and it wasn’t too busy. The staff was super friendly and pointed me to the Gyro Burger. I figured I’d never had one before so I went for it. It was an excellent combo. Fries were big enough to share. Lamb was juicy and tender. Burger was standard. Great unique combo. Pepsi products to boot! Thanks for the tasty experience Mr. Greek!

One of my favorite spots for years but unfortunately it's not the same. Used to get a lot more meat on the gyro and used to hit different too...maybe the meat changed or something. I got my regular gyro and cheese fries. 7.4 I get it food prices are crazy but the quality doesn't have to thou.

Ordered a #1 gyro and #9 chicken Philly combo. Both had generous portions, tons of (unsalted) fries, and were well wrapped. They survived the walk back to Union Station where we ate. Everything was still warm and tasty! Great value for the price of a quick meal.

The meal I got a couple of days ago from this restaurant was lacking everything: flavor, quality, and love. If I secretly hated someone, I would serve them the meal I got. I got the Chicken Gyros Plate for take out, replaced the fries with rice. The substitution for the rice upped the price to $17, which I do not think is fair for the meal you get. The plate comes with a salad and pita. The salad was forgettable, nothing special about soggy and flavorless tomatoes and lettuce. The pita tasted like the ones you could buy prepackaged from Jewel-Osco. The rice was abismal, not really contributing to the taste of the meal overall. What really set me over the edge was the meat. The chicken looked promising but was quick to disappoint. It felt like I was eating thin slices of rubber, there was an absence of any seasonings and flavor. All I gotta say is do better ❤️. In this economy, nobody should spend $17 on a subpar meal like this. Add seasoning to the food and invest in better quality ingredients.

L place. The beef gyros have no taste, and the fries are a shame. The chicken tastes lively but not in a good way, like it literally tastes alive. No flavor anywhere, it could have spoke to me if it wanted. And the place, is filthy. I’ll attach pictures below. Please don’t come. Loose your appetite if you haven’t already. $15 waste, should of known with the big ABSOLUTELY NO REFUNDS sign in front of me.

Last time I tried Gyros and it was very amazing. The size was huge and I couldn't finish it at one time! People here are friendly and kind! I definitely will visit again.

Had a real enjoyable experience at this spot on the night of the 4th. It was not the best gyro I've ever had but the cashier who took our order was super kind/patient. It was a busy night and he could have easily rushed us, been impatient but it was anything but that. The food also came out very quick, I'm talking like no more than 5 minutes if that and it was busy. Nice food and better service, would definitely come back.

Very fast and cheap combo meals, as well as their large milkshakes are HUGE! The spot is spacious and nice spot to get any work done.

Mr. Greek Gyros is an absolute gem in Greektown! From the moment you walk in, you're hit with that perfect blend of spices and sizzling goodness. The gyro platter is a must-try--juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. Their tzatziki sauce is on another level--creamy, fresh, and perfectly tangy. But beyond the food, there's something so authentic about this spot. You can often catch a glimpse of the owner's beautiful grey Lexus SUV parked right out front, a small touch that makes it feel like a proud, family-owned spot. Friendly staff, incredible food, and a welcoming vibe. Highly recommend stopping by for a taste of Greektown's best!

Went there to get just a cheeseburger and found that its mandatory to order a combo meal. Was told I could order cheeseburger for same price as combo meal with fries and drink. Can believe they force people to order items they dont want. Also warm half cook fries didn't help the experience.

Food: 8/10 Service: 0/10 This has been my go to spot and favorite gyro from the city for a while now until tonight. I ordered from door dash (per usual for me), and never had an issue. Tonight I placed an order for pickup and not even 2 minutes went by before they marked the food as ready and marked my order as complete. I called to let them know/ see if I could still pick up my order, as they collected my $80, but as soon as I said door dash he cut me off from talking, told me to contact door dash and hung up. As you can see in the screenshots, and the whole reason behind me calling, is this is not a door dash issue. I've worked in fast food before and they (the restaurant) are the ones who mark the order as ready and complete. All in all, be weary if you're ordering from door dash and also just dealing with a business like this in general. Being busy is one thing, but this is just shady. If you don't care about ethics, calling in or placing an order there seems to be your best bet. Really disappointing for somebody who loves to order from here

It's a worse choice compared to Zeus next door. Their gyro was bland and not hot (the same goes for the fries). Yes more people are eating here, but don't let that fool you, the food is objectively worse. It was not a horrible experience, the food came out quickly and the staff was neutral. I wouldn't come back simply because Zeus is literally right next door.

Imagine a big, honkin' piece of meat. It rotates slowly on a spit, with a heating element or a flame behind it. You order a gyro, and a guy with a knife or shaving machine buzzes off a little bit. That delicious, roasted, savory steak or whatnot goes right into your gyro. Add some veggies and feta, and allow me to welcome you to heaven. Now imagine you are shopping at Aldi. Sometimes in their frozen department, they have something called a gyro. It's alright; for frozen food, it's very passable. The meat is heavily processed, but what would you expect? I can tell you for sure when I go to Greektown, and I eat at a place called "Mr. Greek," I expect the former, not the latter. They did have some kind of meat roasting on the spit mentioned earlier. However, when I got my order (#1 combo - gyro w/ fries and medium drink), they might as well have gotten that garbage at Aldi. This was the same warm (read: not hot), heavily processed, over-salted junk. The pita and sauce were fine, though the onions and tomatoes seemed to be thrown on as an afterthought. The fries were hot, fresh, and cooked nicely but had no seasoning (salt packets are available).

Haven't had a Chicago Gyros in some time. I had been craving one for so long I had one at Nick The Greeks is Daly City Westlake California. I was disappointed by their cost cutting and French Fry portion size by putting five or six fries in the sandwich and decreasing the meat portion. Then I went to Mr. Greeks yesterday and got the awesome gyro ample portion size, and the 1lb paper bag side of fries, and a drink to help lubricants the passageway that was about to be stuffed. So...so good!

Some say good and cheap. Well lately it hasn't been good, and no longer cheap either. Their French Fries I never cared for, mushy, not good, but there's no discount by just ordering a Gyro Sandwich by itself, same price regardless. The Gyro Meat was hit or miss before, but lately I've noticed the flavor is definitely not the same. Either they changed Suppliers, or are buying lower grade Gyro Cones. As for cheap, the last 3 times I walked in there in the last 3 months there have been price increases every time. Thus they aren't such a deal anymore IMO.

I forgot to take pics!!! I wanted something quick and decided to go here. I have been going here since their glory days. Well those days are so over. The chicken pita was tough: the frozen chicken strips were hard to chew, lettuce was crying, sweet & hot peppers gave up. No flava whatsoever. The rice was gummy, tasteless. My friend had a burger which he said tasted frozen like. The fries were actually the best part of the meal. They reduced the size of the fountain cups but u can still get refills. Also it's expensive too. $32 for a chicken pita combo and a single burger combo. So not worth it. I'll give Zeus' a try, a spot behind them on Jackson. Definitely divorcing my business with them effective immediately.

Fresh, Hot and Delicious!! Me and a friend was visiting Chicago due to the international airport. We decided to get some gyros, and was pleased with our decision. it's been over a year since I've had a decent euro but I've ate a few in the last year and they weren't as good as this. the only thing I would've changed is being able to add lettuce & shredded cheese to the euro to make it more dense. One thing I will include about my experience is there was a very difficult customer on the phone and I was over 15 feet away and could hear the customer acting like a child and screaming. I've worked with customer service before, but the gentleman named Stefanos has outstanding patience, handled the situation amazingly and very professionally. I don't think I've left a review in the last five years, but I had to just because of his outstanding character. Thanks Mr. Greek Gyros when we visit Chicago again my wife and I will be visiting for some fresh hot gyros!!!

This place was once solid, but both food and service have really gone to shit lately. Their overall Yelp rating is boosted by old, outdated reviews.

The food here is very average. Not great not bad. I really had a horrible time last time I was here. The manager who tends to the cash register has a real attitude problem. He messed up my order and when I asked him for a refund he was confrontational and rude and then denied to give me one. He said sorryyyy bro dis is our policy. He made no attempt to remedy the situation. I'll never spend money here again and used to come for convenience.

This place must've advertised Charbroiled Chicken at least 5 times all over the restaurant, I went inside to have a what I thought was going to be "Charbroiled "Chicken Breast on a Pita ,do you wanna know what I didn't get that wasn't "CHARBROILED "the chicken pita number 2! The service was good ,ambience looked like everyone picked it because of the price and location. What I'm disappointed at is the options I had around me and picked this one. Taziki sauce was spoiled, and the cucumbers in it were rotten. Just a piece of advice to those who prepare the food '"If a bunch of sour liquid is sitting on top throw it away ". The moral of this story is to be aware any restaurant that has to say in bold letters "NO REFUNDS " typically makes horrible food. This place gave me the runs afterwards and I know it did. Soda fountain drinks taste like it hasn't been serviced in a while, I'd call the vendor.

I got the chicken pita gyro and it was very overcooked and lacked any flavor. The food was generally greasy and tasted horrible. The service was slow and workers were generally unfriendly. I would recommend any of the other Greek spots in the neighborhood, don't waste your time at this inauthentic and low quality spot.

Portions are extremely small! save your money. you'll still be hungry afterwards. I ordered a gyro meal. it should be labeled as a gyro snack.

I ordered my order on GrubHub called Mr Greek to ask if they can please double the fries I put it in the comments and I called the store supposedly the manager answered the phone very rude in answering no help at all I was calling ahead to make sure that they can double my fries I stead of the Greek fries and he kept on insisting that I call GrubHub I asked if he speaks Spanish since clearly he is not understanding me when he got even worsted I told him he is not friendly to his customers when I am placing an order to prevent from it being wrong and contact grubhub. I just hope it comes with correctly, horrible service. I've worked in customer service and never spoke to any of my customers the way this manager did. I should've cancelled my order and ordered somewhere else but it was for me and my daughter. He wouldn't even give me his name as a manager.

E A S Y ! F R I E N D L Y , E F F I C I E N T , quick tastes Filled the tummy nice . It's Open late I like it.

Service is excellent Breakfast was awful Gyros are always great. But it's not like they make to me. They get it from Grecian delight. Go there for the gyros not the breakfast. I should've ate my dog food for breakfast.

Store hours say 9am-9pm ... its 9:18am and the front doors are locked. I called the number on the door because I see the employees inside and no answer. Review is completely based on not being open during listed operating hours.

Good place to stop in for food late at night. The line was long but everything moved quickly. We ordered the gyro combo and it was delicious! One of the best gyro places in the city. Fries needed a bit of salt.

Spent a very long night finding somewhere to eat and ended up coming here. Crowd was a bit rowdy but as you can guess with it being one of the latest open places it was filled with plenty coming from bars. I order a Gyro with fries. Service was ok, just very loud and the cashier couldn't hear me as well. Now to the Gyro very great in flavor meat seasoned just right. Not a fan of larger fries however these were pretty good. If your out late night give them a shot but probably would have a better service in the day time.

I have been stopping by here for several years when the King Gyros on 54th and Broadway [THE BEST] is too far to drive. I love chicken gyros shaved off the big hunk on the spit. Up until TODAY, I've had nothing be great experience here. Today, I ordered two chicken gyro plates. I was there about 10 minutes after they opened. Well, when I got home, the chicken is NOT the gyro meat shaved off like have had every single time in the past. There may have been some small pieces shaved off, there there were chunks of chicken breast cut up, doused in grease, and seasoned with Cavender's Greek seasoning or something similar. How do I know? Because I make my own chicken on the trill and I use Cavernder's Greek seasoning. But I don't add the grease. I called to complain and the owner/manager started arguing with me . . . "we've been doing our chicken gyros the same way for 20 years." I told him that all he had to do was tell me they were out . . . but before I could finish and say that I'd have gotten "regular" gyros, he talked over me angrily, insisting that it was "the same thing we've served for 20 years.". BULL-SH!T. And one of my cups of tzatziki sauce had been dumped in grease and put in section of the styrofoam server. It coagulated and looked disgusting. See the pictures and judge for yourself. Never again. I'll drive the 26 blocks up Broadway to King Gyros.

Me and my boyfriend went in here last minute tonight and immediately were greeted with a smile. The service was amazing a very good environment. Food came out so quick and it was AMAZING. We just got 2 gyros and fries and I will never go anywhere else. Even the meat alone was so soft and flavorful. I would definitely recommend if you're in the area and i'm looking forward to trying their other menu items (if I can ever stop ordering these gyros LOL).

Ordered a gyro plate for pick up during lunch after seeing a TikTok featuring Mr. Greek Gyros. The video was a glowing review of the restaurant, so we knew we had to check it out. I have to say, the food was just average. It wasn't bad, but it also wasn't anything special. There are definitely better places to get a gyro in the city.

Great place for a quick and filling gyro platter or sandwich combo. Walked by here after dinner in Greektown and the line was to the door. Came the next day for a late lunch and there was no line. The gyro platter was overflowing, literally. For around $10, you will get a full to go box filled with freshly sliced gyro meat, onions, tomatoes, pita and a choice of two sides. We had the salad and fries, but you could also get a side of rice. The tzatziki sauce was perfect. The sandwich combo is also very generous. For around $8-9, you get a huge sandwich, fries and a drink. The fries come fresh and hot in a bag the size of a small lunch bag. Lots of choices and plenty of seating for a Labor Day Monday late lunch.

Mr. Greek is a go 2 place 4 gyros in Greektown Chicago their gyros r legit n filled 2 the rim just picture full slices of lamb w/ some onion, tomato n tzatziki sauce inside a tender pita mmm mmm ur stomach says.. only thing missing is asking 4 feta this time though Chicago style gyros r definitely the best in the states n there's not 1 bad place in Chi-town, even the bad 1s tastes better than any other including my home '2 Oh 6'

What happened to the portion? I walked away a little disappointed tonight, food portion is usually much larger ie protein on the pita was not what you usually get and the guy taking my order barked at me when I asked for a glass of water "You can have a water with the gyro plate" ok, I'll have the plate,expecting left overs with a gyro plate order. Nope skinny gyro platter for sure.

Recently had carryout staple: Gyros. Generous serving, all fresh to order with a tasty side of hot fries and drink included. My call in order was ready in five minutes with friendly service. My taste buds were super satisfied!

Just had the worst experience. Customer service was terrible and on top of that paid for food and got the bare minimum of meat on my salad. The refused to refund,add meat or allow me to PAY for additional meat. Won't be back again

I never write reviews ever but this was horrible I had to literally download Yelp just to write this review. We ordered chicken gyros and got beef/some other meat. Told my girlfriend to take one bite out of hers to identify what meat it was and then brought both up to the counter to tell them the order was wrong since it wasn't chicken. Owner came up out of no where yelling about how he couldn't take them back or make new ones because she took one single bit out of hers. Made a scene, he was very hostile for no reason over a simple mistake that they made. Lost my appetite and left because of the horrible customer service. A woman came up to us while we were leaving and said they came here before and the same guy yelled at them and did the same thing last time they were there. Don't waste your time. The one bite that was eaten was bad too.

Great Greek fast food in Greek town. They're open until 2 am usually and serve really great gyros! We usually get their Grecian chicken served with garlic bread, potatoes and rice! Friendly service and great for take out!

Looking for a late night fast food place. Mr Greek Gyros has a variety of foods. From hamburgers to chicken gyros. We stopped for a late dinner. I always heard the chicken gyros were good. I had never tried it and thought no better time than now. We ordered chicken tenders, chicken gyro platter, gyro platter and a chicken gyro sandwich. The chicken tenders were bigger pieces than other fast food places. It came with fries. The fries I would pass on for carryout. Better fries elsewhere. The gyro platter and chicken platter had fried but instead we substituted it with rice. The gyro meat wasn't thrown on the griddle to crisp up a bit so we've had it better elsewhere. The chicken gyro platter and the chicken gyro sandwich was very tasty and had a nice crispness on some of the meat. Three stars because of the fries and the tzatziki sauce was slathered on the edge of the pita sandwich on one side and wished there was more spread out on the pita. But I would still go back again for the chicken gyro.

Really enjoy coming here.Food is in point.Hits the spot for me.Really like visiting the Greektown neighborhood as well.Im all up and down Chicago and this neighborhood is no exception.Service is good.Prices are reasonable.Gyro plates are HUUUUUGE!!!

Not to be confused with Mr Geek (Bill Gates), Mr Geck (the Geico animal), Mr Glock (the guy that invented the Xylophone... or was it the handgun), Mr Gunk (the uggo who humped my leg while I was asleep that one time in North Carolina, and got my muscular thigh all gooey by the time I woke up - #MeToo), and Mr Gawk (that creepy hairy guy in the corner who keeps staring at my bulge). What to get: Gyro Why: I need a Gyro How about a slice?: I'm holding out for a Gyro til the morning light What kind?: It's got to be big and it's got to be good and it's got to be fresh from the fryer Gyros aren't fried, are they?: Shut up Even though it's over $8, their gyro is absolutely awesome. It's not the best I've ever had, but the pita bread is good and hot and fresh, and the tomatoes and sauce both taste great... perhaps it could use a little more tomatoes and onions (maybe I'll ask for extra next time), but oh my goodness - they give you enough meat to feed a small country - or even a large country really. And a medium sized country, for that matter. And the most important thing - the meat was delicious - not bland, not generic, not too greasy, not fake, not dry, not lukewarm, not congealed. It avoided all the pitfally pitfalls of so many bad and pitfallious Gyros I've had. Yes pitfallious is a word. Now. Because I've used it, and I'm from Oxford, so it has now entered common usage. Not to be confused with London politicians using it, in which case it'd be House Of Commons usage. Speaking of comm-ons, what's a nice Yelper like you doing on a page like this? And speaking of huge amounts of impressive meat, the sandwich was so huge that I gave a large part of it away to a homeless guy - so I ate less than half of it - and was still completely and utterly full. Hopefully he enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed the 1/3 or so, which as I said, filled me up completely. I've had some pretty iffy gyros in my day so I'm surprised this one did not get a better rating on Yelp. But then you know how Yelp is. So skip Mr Greek, Mr Gawk, and especially Mr Gunk (guy should be in jail), and get to Mr Greek. Also not to be confused with Mr Gronk (the multiple Super Bowl winner, who likes to do the same things I like to do with porn stars, and is as show offy about it, and also hails sort of from Williamsville, and will win another ring tomorrow). And me? I can chug Gyros like Gronk can chug beer. And if you point out that he's taller, cuter, more muscular than me? I just pout and chug my shoulders. Sob. I need a big chug right about now.

Garbage Greek salad. Looks like the lettuce is from the grocery store. And they don't even have green dressing. A side of gyro meat evidently means "put gyro meat on my salad."

I stopped by here for lunch recently, and overall this place is alright. It's located in Greektown and is open from 7:00 am - 4:00 am so it's probably a great late night spot. I ordered the Charboiled chicken on pita combo item, which came along with the main item, a massive order of fries, and a fountain drink of your choosing. For just under $10, this really is a massive amount of food. The charbroiled chicken item itself was okay. There was a lot of chicken on the pita which was great, but the chicken was a bit dry. It also comes along with lots of mayo. I feel like this would be a great drunk food spot. Unfortunately, I came in for lunch. The fries that come along with the combo orders are more than plentiful. I probably will be back if I'm craving some greasy late night food, but otherwise I'll pass!

Food was good. Service was a little slow though. It could also be my fault. I went during a really busy hour.

This use to be my spot on mannnnnnyyyyyy drunk nights back in the day. Lol. I came in last night after a party and got a gyro. Funny thing is they still remember my order. The guy said "NO RIBEYE STEAK 2NIGHT?" I said nope I'm fixing a craving. He laughed and said oh I'll get your bottle water no pop for you I know what you like. We laughed and I was out the door. I've tried so many items. Chicken on pita, salads, gyros, ribeye steak, Philly steak, pizza puffs. You name it, I've had it. The guys are friendly and it's been the same crew since I started clubbing back in 98. (Don't tell nobody my age, lol, I did start before 21 tho. Ctfu)

Mr Greek is my new favorite late-night spot in the West Loop! Having moved up Halsted to be a bit closer to the Blue Line, I needed a new go-to spot for my late night munchies that wouldn't necessarily break the wallet. Fortunately Mr Greek has come through and offered up some great options for my grumbling stomach. The restaurant is opened late and has a lot of seating options inside. They provide a list of their top ten meals which include their Gyros and their Burger. Both come with a large portion of fries and an endless fountain drink as long as you dine inside. All meals are less than $10. While the gyros here were pretty good, my favorite would have to be their insanely delicious burger. Unlike other establishments, they really dress up their burgers at Mr Greek with the whole nine yards. Their burger is a juicy all-beef patty with tomatoes, onions, lettuce, and plenty of sauces to make it delicious. You really get your moneys worth here! This is a great grab and go, cheapo Greek spot that anyone can appreciate. Come swing by and see for yourself.

Terrible service. Make sure you get your receipt because the cashier will add random extra charges to your order AND get your order wrong at the same time I asked for two beef polish with mustard and ketchup and this guy gives me two beef sandwiches with mushrooms and ketchup. Then he tries to argue with me, saying that it's what I asked for, in completely broken English. I'd give 0 stars if I could.

I contacted Mr Greek Gyros restaurant for a catering order for my company holiday party and the food was amazing. The portions were more than enough and the communication was great from the beginning to delivery. I recommend them for your party or event. Thank you Mr Greek Gyros

Casual Greek restaurant in (you guessed it!) Greektown. Very affordable prices for great food and lots of variety. Their gyros are my go to, either regular or chicken, you can't go wrong! I've never had to wait long here even during lunch rush or late weekend night. Staff is super friendly as well, always a bonus!

Just ordered food from here, got my number, filled up my drink and took a seat while I waited. As I anticipated my normally deliciously greasy gyro, I spied some movement on the floor. There were some rather "healthy" centipedes that spawned from under the drink dispenser. They seemed to be right at home roaming around the dining area rummaging for some gyro scraps. Granted they were on the customer side of the counter, my mind could not help but wonder what other critters are lurking under the food area. That was my last visit to the centipede nest. I hope the place gets cleaned up.

The worst place in the term of service and the quality. First, the place looks very filthy as soon as you enter. The price around $7 just for a gyro sandwich is expensive. And the service is terrible. I asked to take a picture of my receipt at the counter, and he was like "WTH" face and snorted at me. And the food comes out right away, insinuating that there is no quality. No surprise there. And the food is nothing special. Just a lot of gyro meats. I am not sure why people even come here or this place should exist. Just go to Subway next door for a much better and a valuable price.

I remember this place being great when I used to go here as an undergrad student years ago. The portions have shrunk down dramatically and the taste just wasn't what it once was. My husband's gyro had three different bone fragments in the meat. It just ended up being a not so great meal instead of a fun walk down memory lane.

Came to Chicago for Lolla and for the most part, limited my food to what was served at my friends place or at the festival. I did, however, want one authentically Chicagoan local meal before I flew home. Luckily my friend lived in Greektown and recommended this place. This is one of those places where the decor is sparse, but the place is clean, so you know well that you will get a good meal and that the place puts their money into good quality. I ordered a gyro combo with fries and a Pepsi (yes that old SNL joke about "No Coke!" is real) for $9-not bad at all, considering that's a tough price point to find in Manhattan. The gyro fell apart once I took it out of its paper wrapper, but nonetheless, it was delicious! The meat was tender and not greasy or fatty, the tzatziki was evidently homemade and creamy, and the tomatoes and onions were fresh and crisp. The fries were cooked to perfection, with the hard-to-nail balance of crispiness and fluffiness. Easily the best gyro I've had, and one of the best meals I've had in Chicago by far!

Sorry for not posting the picture! We were so hungry, so couldn't wait to dig in! Tried the Philly chicken for the first time and loved it! Others got the chicken gyros and loved it aswell. I mean, we drive an hour and 45 mins just for this. Love the food! Don't forget to ask for any condiments! Such as ketchup or salt. Food is yummy!!!!

My first time using Uber Eats so some confusion that was all my fault but my wife wanted Mediterranean and we got it. The Spinach pie was delicious. My gyro plate good. Overall a good experience.
