Gyro World Astoria - Broad Channel

There are a number of renowned Greek restaurants in the area, but I was looking for something quick happened upon Gyro World; all that to say I knew what I getting into. I got the halloumi platter, which comes with an abundance of food—grilled halloumi, cucumbers, tomatoes, onion, a side a soup or salad. I found the αβγολέμονο (avgolemono) to be unnecessarily salty very light on λεμόνι (lemon). Fortunately, the platter was served with a lemon wedge, which was helpful in getting the soup lemon potatoes to their appropriate state of lemoniness. The halloumi, while not the best I’ve ever had, was good. The pita, however, seemed to be an afterthought—dense chewy, rather than ready scrumptious. I would definitely stop back in, if I find myself in the area in need a quick meal.

The food is mediocre for the price. No service. The food presentation was horrible.
