Mr. Gyros
8411 Greenwood Ave N
Seattle, WA 98103
(206) 706-7472

In a town mostly devoid of gyros and Greek food in general, Mr. Gyros stands tall as the best place to go for a gyros sandwich, fries, pita, hummus and a good laugh from the owners. The guys running it, brothers Johnny and Sammy, make everyone feel welcome, chat you up while you are waiting for your food, and have established a great place to pick a up meal quickly in the Greenwood hood. 2 of the 3 times I've gone there is a line out the door.

Love the atmosphere and appreciate the effort to provide great Greek style fast food. Have only eaten gyros as a main dish.

However, I think the food can get better with a bit more care. The fries are often not crisp (have bitten into a not-quite-fully-cooked fry a few times), pita should be fried lightly in oil, for instance. Thus, my 4/5 rating.

Overall, love the place, have gone 3 times in the last month, and only criticize so that an already great experience gets even better.
