“ I catered The Gyro Factory for my daughter’s 1st birthday party and it was the best part of the party! Everyone was raving about how good the food was! The chicken and pork kebabs were still so juicy and their Greek potatoes are my personal favorite. My brother in law said the rice was the best rice he’s ever had in his life if you EVER need to cater delicious food that feels like yiayia was cooking for you- you NEED to order from the gyro factory! The owner was also amazing to work with. ”
“ We have been long time customers, and are happy that the new owners have maintained the same level of quality (if not better!) with the food. In fact, they've expanded to include catering, and we had them cater a small birthday party for our daughter, who loves pasta. We were able to get exactly what she wanted, and everything was well recieved with our guests. Both the Alfredo and Vodka pastas were top notch! We had grilled chicken on the side, which worked perfectly for accommodating the fussy eaters and vegetarians on our guest list. Salad and rice pilaf rounded everything out nicely! It was delicious and so easy - we would definitely do this again. Oh, and apart from the wonderful catering experience, these are, far and away, the best gyros in the area! Thanks, Alex, and Gyros Factory! ”
“ Bee here a few times now and each time the food has been excellent. This visit and review is for the Spicy factory bowl, with Gyro added protein. The pic included is after a few bites, and it was so good that I had to make this review. The bowl includes rice, greens, onion, tomatoes, cucumber, Tzaziki, hummus, and spicy feta. The homemade spicy feta is out of this world! ”
“ Update: We finally made a trip back and, man, the food is awesome here. This time we had Greek chicken with Greek potato and rice. Also Souvlaki and Spanakopita with Greek salad. I think we found our new go-to Greek restaurant. It's fast casual, so no fancies, just solid good food. We ate here a while back, and the food is good and reasonable. ”
“ Tried The Gyros Factory recently and was really impressed. The place looks super clean and welcoming, and the food is even better. I had the Greek chicken with potatoes and rice—everything was flavorful, fresh, and cooked just right. The Greek salad was crisp and loaded with feta, and the portions were generous. You can tell a lot of care goes into the food. Definitely worth checking out! ”
