King Gyros

Fuck yeah… That is all.
Like you need an excuse or recommendation to eat large portions of fatty, salty, affordable food. Life is far too short to eat healthfully — and the king embodies this in spades.

Great food: Deluxe Gyro with a big bag of fries, under $ 8.00. Location close to hotel and shopping is ideal too!

Had the Rib Tip Dinner. Rib tips, fries, coleslaw and bread. Very disappointing. The rib tips looked and tasted old and dry. They could not drown them in enough sauce to save them. Coleslaw was flavorless. The fries were good, restaurant was clean but the meal wasn’t good enough to warrant any stars but Unilocal won’t let me post my review without one.

It’s greasy food. But good greasy food. Large portions, too! 10 bucks for a dinner keeps me fed most of the day and the people who work here are always really nice on drive through. I wouldn’t come here expecting fine dining or anything, but it’s got charm. I like it.

Rib tips
If I could give this place negative stars I would. I had these rib tips for dinner on 17 January 2016. When I first started eating them I knew they had a taste that reminded me of my childhood of many years past. That was the taste of charcoal cooked burgers saturated with lighter fluid by a well meaning father. These rib tips were absolutely saturated with lighter fluid to the point that both my brother and I endured upset stomachs for a little while. I can’t say for sure why they chose to cook with lighter fluid saturated coals except to guess that they either rushed cooking, reheating or adding a char to the ribs.
Maybe it was an off day or a very lazy Sunday, but avoid the rib tips until there are several positive reviews or forever. This place might do other things well, but their rib tips are not only disgusting, they are potentially dangerous to your health.

I used to order here when I used the nearby laundromat — I’d pick up food and go wait for my clothes to be done! However, the last couple times I went in there it was very dirty inside. There were things scattered all over the floor and flies flying around. I still ordered but it was kind of a turn away to someone new. I always get the chicken tenders and you get amazing portions for the price! It isn’t bad at all but it should be more clean. I would go back for take out.

Solid gyro and great sauce. The fries were like McDonald’s and super tasty. My one single complaint would be that they forgot to put tomatoes in my order, so that was a little annoying because I didn’t see it until I got home. Otherwise, the gyro itself was not greasy at all and cut with a knife, so it wasn’t thin and no personality. I also got a hot dog with ketchup and mustard, but they were really skimpy on the amount of the condiments.

Absolutely the best best best gyros and sauce I’ve ever had. The hot dogs are great. French fries are super skinny and tasty

Got a gyros meal that was big enough for 2 people. We actually ended up with gyros meat leftover! It was overall tasty. The Pitas were big and they tasted really good. Kinda disappointed in the sauce that came with it though. It wasn’t flavorful and the fries were generic nothing special. Everything was separated to be put together which is common so the pita doesn’t get soggy makes sense.

Great place for fast food. The staff is always friendly. We come here once in a while and have never had a bad experience.

King Gryos catered a local event and I was truly surprised by the spareribs. They were meaty, tender and not over laden with BBQ sauce. What was an additional surprise was the coleslaw. This too was simple and very tasty. Having lived in Valparaiso for 30 years, I had never patronized this small establishment. Now, they are on my list of places to go for carry-​out.

This is an honest assessment, I’m here now with the food. I ordered a Gyro with everything, a Chicago dog, and a order of cheese sticks. The gyros was completely flavorless, lacking any hint of seasoning, they offered no feta cheese and the tomatoes were cut in the weirdest manner I’ve ever seen leaving only the skin on the gyros, the Chicago dog is pitiful, probably the smallest hot dog I’ve ever seen, buried in a bun much too large for it. The cheese stix were OK not the good ones with the good breading but that were OK, that is provided you don’t use the marinara they give you which is not any good at all. My daughter asked for a water, which they display in the case in bottles, while they display name brand bottle water they gave her an off brand bottle at the same price, not good business. I would not recommend this to anyone at all.

I love this divey place for good prices and memories, been going here since i was a kid. Everything is good here. Staff can seem rushed sometimes, but they do stay busy. Good baklava too.

Having lived in Philadelphia for a few years, I became a die hard fan of gyros at Olympia Gyros in Reading Terminal Market. So delicious. So, when I ended up moving back to Valpo, I knew I’d miss it. I tried a few gyro joints in the area, and was not at all impressed. I saw the reviews of this place and gave it a try.
I had a gyro, no tomato, with feta, and a side salad. The gyro was very good. The meat was tender and flavorful. The pita was nicely steamed and not at all dry. The tzatziki was good too — but, I wish it had more garlic to it. I had forgotten how little garlic it takes for a Midwesterner to think there’s too much.
Overall, a good place to go. If you like gyros, give it a try.

This was our first time to try this place, so I was going on the raving reviews and large menu. They didn’t disappoint. I ordered from home since I had a big order for our large family. Then I went to pick it up in the drive-​thru. It was slow, but it was a busy Saturday night. The service was always friendly whether on the phone of in person. I took home a ton of food for a really good price.
We ordered Italian beef, chili dog, hamburgers, a few orders of fries, fried zucchini, fried mushrooms, mozzarella sticks, & pitas. They certainly didn’t hip us on quantity. The Italian beef was huge and everyone was full when finished. The food was awesome and the price was fair!!! Service with a smile… Yep! We’ll be back!

Best Gyro in town. I often go to Gyro joints for other fast food fare, and this isn’t necessarily the best place for that. I’m not saying it’s bad, you’ll enjoy the cheeseburger or hot dog you get here if you order that, I’m just saying there are better Gyro places in town for that stuff.
However, if you just want a Gyro; this is the best. Hands down. They get element of what makes a Gyro great right. So go eat it!

Love, love, LOVEEEE their food.
The prices aren’t that bad for the amount of food you’re getting either. :)
I’d recommend the gyros plate. You’ll be stuffed and have leftovers for the next day!

There’s nothing like Midwest meat! This place is a little dingy inside and the staff are kinda creepy, but their food is absolutely awesome.
The gyro meat (which is lamb) tastest sooooo good, and their tzatziki sauce is on point. Awesome food, pretty good prices, but I think the restaurant could have a makeover.

I’ve ordered from Kings a number of times, and yet to be disappointed. From the Kronos Gyro meat to the Viena hotdogs, each item being some of the best heat and serve in the area. The only thing I don’t like is that the menu on Unilocal!is off, and needs to be changed to reflect what they have in their location. (I’ve tried to order a few items that weren’t there and was told that the menu was wrong on here).
Definitely 2 thumbs up from me! I’ll be back :)

Good. Very tasty gyros! I eat here probably every other week.
