Yiro Yiro, thank you for taking me back to Jimmy's Gyros in Mykonos, where the gyros are made with crispy fries inside, as they should be! YUM!!
This is definitely one of the most authentic, delicious quick Greek eats I've had outside of that stunning country...
Gyros any way you like it, with choice of meats or not (falafel) and your choice of a variety of sauces like spicy tzatziki. We shared the falafel one and it was absolutely PACKED. It was super filling and delish! Everything was cooked just right and that tzatziki was the perfect spicy punch I desired.
There's also the option of making a platter with the same meat or veg options. We shared the falafel one and it was hearty. It came with 6 balls, 4 pita slices, a bit of traditional Greek salad (sans lettuce-that's an Americanized thing) and all the fixings you've come to expect from the cuisine. There's a small up charge (.75) for the Greek fries which has feta and Mediterranean spices. YUM!! Go for it!
The spanakopita was also a winner! Big time. It was a spiral, which is genius!! This way of rolling makes sure you have enough filling in each bite. The phyllo was crispy, buttery and flaky the way it should be and the filling/exterior ratio was perfect! I loathe biting into a square and just having dough. I'm not sure why everyone doesn't roll theirs, because it's really awesome!
We surely didn't have room for dessert this time, but the top your own Greek yogurt bar was enticing, as were the loukoumades! Next time!
It's a casual order at the counter, they'll call you when it's ready place but it's adorable. The turquoise color, modern evil eye mural and evil eye ornaments will give you the perfect little hints of Greece. Awesome!
Yiro Yiro is the cure for my yearning for the gorgeous Greek Isle!! If you've never been, it will make you want to go. If you have, you'll KNOW how close this place is to the real deal!
