Gyro Stop

Very good gyro. Although they wouldn’t honor the Unilocal coupon they still gave me a discount. Food was fresh hot and large. All good things.

I am happy I recently discovered this restaurant. It is a simple place with great food, and the family that owns it is very sweet and welcoming. I have enjoyed the falafel, Mazza plate, and Lebanese plate which are all great options for those looking for good vegetarian platters. The menu has variety, ranging from Middle Eastern and Greek food to hamburgers. This is definitely one of my top places for the freshness and great flavors.

Perhaps it was partly the plastic plate divided into little compartments, but portions seem unbalanced. What was that, 2 tablespoons of hummus? One tablespoon of sauce? For two pitas and six (I’d say overcooked) felafel?
Quality was fine (except the imho overcooking of the felafel), but like the rating choices say, «Meh. I’ve experienced better.»

Probably the very best gyro I have ever had. The owner so sweet and helpful. Will be back more often.

I used to live a quick 5 minute drive away and would come here weekly. Now that I have moved I don’t come here as often, but wish I could. The food is amazing. The owner always recognizes me, and is always so welcoming too. I get the Combo #5 every time: lamb gyro with a side salad and a beverage. Never disappoints. Prices are reasonable as well. If you’re looking for a new place to try, I highly recommend The Gyro Stop.

The gyros are VERY very good and reasonably priced at $ 6. However, they are a bit cheap in attitude — the person working up front said that a side of falafel was 4. When the guy in the back gave me my order he said the person up front made a mistake and it was only 3… like, no dude. If a mistake is made, it’s not my fault. Give me 4 OR tell me before you put the order together that there is only 3 and ask me if I still want it. I only got the side because I thought 4 at the price was a good deal. I don’t like being tricked.
The place is a hole in the wall, so come here more for the food and don’t be afraid of how it looks a bit dingy inside.
Also: The tzaztiki sauce is very light and quite good.

Fiancé and I have been trying to go here for the last year but it seems we are only ever there on Sunday’s but they are closed. We learned today this is because they spend Sunday’s together as a family — love this! So anyway we arrived tonight very excited and we were not disappointed! We’ve been looking for a great place to get Gyros in Indy and haven’t been able to find one we love. That all changed tonight. They were so friendly and answered all our questions and explained the menu to us. Two traditional gyros, small falafel and a side of fries later we are full and happy. The gyros had the perfect amount of meat, sauce, tomatoes and lettuce. Don’t forget to ask for a side of hot sauce — delicious. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much.

Everytime I crave a gyro, this is where we end up. The staff members at Gyro Stop are incredibly friendly and the food is always freshly made when ordered. I tend to get a gyro (no tomato, no onion) with the tzaztiki sauce on the side, so I can dip my fries in it. I love the tzaztiki sauce here, because it has a subtle cucumber-​taste instead of a «in your face“cucumber-taste. They also have a great hot sauce they will bring out for you, if you ask. My husband loves the gyro burrito (gyro meat, lettuce, onion, tomato, rice, tzaztiki, & cheese). We typically split a side of spanakopita, which is flakey deliciousness.
The only reason for 4 stars, instead of 5, is because I haven’t explored the menu enough [yet]…

I love this place I eat their every week end the food is great The staff is friendly and they give the best service

UPDATE:
Stopped in again in December. Big change in attitude and product. Much better customer service — new owners again? At least different help.
Gyro was EXCELLENT. Much better ratio of meat to fixin’s. I also ordered babaganooj, which was excellent. Came with a pita, and was delicious when added to the gyro. HUGE serving — needed another put a AND the gyro.
Since noe lentil soup was available, the counter help offered me Lemon Rice Soup. I am now thankful for the suggestion! Basically a chicken and rice soup with no chicken, the aroma opened up my stuffed nose.
I hope this service and quality continue. MUCH better than last time.

I used to visit this place regularly, but moved away and haven’t been in until this week. Gone was the original, friendly Lebanese owner that I met when it was located at 79^th an Michigan Rd. New owners seemed a hit surly, and would only answer «He gone».
The food was a hit different, but neither a better nor worse. The Lamb Gyro seemed a bit sweeter than normal, but not in a bad way. It was better wrapped in wax paper; a big help on such a sloppy «sandwich». Tzitziki sauce was a bit sparse, but all ingredients were fresh.
The baklava was bigger than I remember, hut seemed short on nuts, tasting more line honey and filo dough alone.
The disappointment was the falafel side. Overcooked to the point over almost burned, the pucks and the sauce lacked flavor.
All in all, if you work in the far NW part of Marion county and need a quick gyro lunch, this is the place to go, but this is not the place as a «destination» of itself.
BTW: Sign says is Halal. Dosen’t make any difference to me, but some of our brothers may consider this important.

I really really wanted to like this place. I’m not a expert on the gyro but I know I have eaten many and I haven’t had one quite like theirs. I had the Big Fat Greek Gyro. There was a ton of lettuce on it that became soggy really quickly and the tzatziki sauce tasted like it had a ton of mint in it. Maybe that is what authentic taste like and I’m just not used to it? It was just totally different than anything I have ever had and I was not a fan.

Not a great place to eat. I only wanted something different and went their, Make sure you go their when its busy time else they will serve you stale food. I think I was served chicken amount that normally would be for one sandwich in two sandwitch’s The owner seems to not care to get repeat business.
Will not go again

Used to be good place but not anymore I ordered chicken gyro platter, it comes with rice but chicken was very less and kinda smelly and there was too much onion in it and less of chicken, very disappointed

Good place for a gyro.
I hate tzaziki and its hard to get them to leave it off, but I was eventually able to talk them into it.
I’ll definitely give it another shot.

The gyro sammich was bland. The owner was very friendly and made me feel right at home… smiles abound. I may go back to try the chicken shawarma.

Pretty standard gyro fare. I enjoy just the plain #1 gyro with french fry combo as a quick lunch. The gyro meat is good, the pita is fresh, and I enjoy the toppings. I am looking forward to trying the falafel after reading the good reviews about it. Its a great place to stop for a quick, tasty, and inexpensive lunch.

Not AMAZING food, but it is worth eating when I’m craving something tasty and different.
I always get a chicken shawarma sandwich and sometimes a side of hummus.
Hope they make it– the staff is very nice.

Gyro Stop has the best hummus in Indianapolis, period. They also make the best falafel – in fact, it’s the only falafel I’ll eat.
The service is always good, Luke (the owner) is always very friendly, the restaurant is clean, and the food is excellent. There’s a large variety of meal options, including a good number of vegetarian items. Plus, it’s locally owned, which makes it doubly-​good in my book.

The Gyro Stop was in the Entertainment Book so I thought I would give them a try. I take one step into the store and the cashier asks me what I would like to order, so I scan the menu and order two side dishes, a side of gyro meat and an order of fried mushrooms. The cashier says that he is not sure if they can accept my coupon but shows it to the cook. «Buy one menu item get one free» is straight forward in my mind. The cook explains to the cashier to just charge me for one item and the cook asks for here or to go and I said I would like to dine in.
I pay for my order and the cashiers asks, «That is to go, right?» Well, I take a seat and hear some Middle Eastern music in the background. Once I got my food it tasted good. The Gyro meat is served with Gyro sauce and the fried mushrooms were served with Ranch dressing.
As I am leaving I noticed the trash barrel has a circular hole cut in the top, I guess this is so people don’t throw the baskets in the garbage. The restaurant is located a block or two east of Trader’s Point but this strip mall is a little trashy. Their neighbor is a massage parlor. On the lighter side, there are a pair of interesting gameball machines that have a pinball game built into them. This was my one and only stop at the Gyro Stop.

Kind of Greek/​Middle Eastern restaurant in a fast-​food footprint. I like their gyros and shawarma. Nice mom-​and-​pop family-​run place. The family is from the middle-​east.
Pretty clean. Ambience is self-​serve fast foot type, with self-​serve soft-​drinks, utensils and napkins. The food seems authentic. Though they do include a lot of American staples too, like burgers, hot dogs, chili dogs, NY dogs, Chicago dogs, fries, chicken wings, various fried fish, fried shrimp, subs, etc.
This is a good change-​of-​pace from the fast-​food restaurants along West 86^th street.
The same family owns «Gyro N Kabob» at 3681 West 86^th, corner of Michigan Road. I like Gyro N Kabob better as they have a lunch buffet.
