We've had gyros before, but never like this! We opted for the chicken gyro and the flavors were out of this world. The chicken was super tender, flavorful and seasoned well. The vegetables were super fresh and delicious. All of it harmonized together and was unbelievably good. This will be my absolute gold standard for gyros from now on!
Came here last year a few times and we were psyched to go again today. Was worried my expectations were too high but somehow it was even better than I remember! We got the lamb gyro and watermelon feta salad. Both excellent. The gyro was probably the best we’ve ever had (I can’t think of another one better). Delicious pita (warm and soft yet crispy edges), tasty lamb (great flavor and nicely browned), tomatoes/cucumbers/pickled onions (all very fresh) and great tzatziki on top of course! Friendly people who are dedicated to making great food. Love it. Can’t wait to go back.
Easily my favorite food in Hanalei. I had heard such positive things that I decided to try several menu items with my fiance. The lamb gyro was the best gyro I’ve had, including my stops in Greece! The watermelon orzo salad was refreshing and flavorful - perfect for a warm day. The fish was outstanding, and so were the potatoes. The woman at the front was kind and generous, even letting us sample her homemade hot sauce!
One of my favorite trucks in the island. The lamb beef and falafel gyro were so tasty and well seasoned. The potatoes were to die for! Definitely coming back. Also the owners Ben and Jordan were super friendly which always makes for great food.
Great gyros in the middle of the ocean! Fresh ingredients, lots of veggies, and the gyro meat were actual fresh patties. Best bang for the buck in this area. There is parking in the marketplace and a shaded area for sitting and eating if you need (though I recommend eating it on the beach if you can wait). We had a tupperware to put it into for the move to the beach but I'm sure you can ask them to wrap it to go if you need. Otherwise, the gyro is in an open wrap which can become a bit messy if you're not careful.
Very yummy Falafel Gyro. The Pita bread was amazing. The potatoes a delicious side.
Excellent food. My husband and I came here twice we enjoyed it so much.
Everything was well seasoned and fresh tasting. Probably one of the best gyros my boyfriend and I have had. I prefer garlic sauce over tzatziki, which they didn’t have, but still very good! I see why they have such high ratings.
