Very fresh taste in all the ingredients..I ate a bowl and everything was excellent..
I have been to Greece many times and know what a great gyro tastes like. For that reason, my standards for gyro are simply too high. But this place does a solid gyro that I enjoy eating. I always get the classic pork and they fill it up well and load it with fries. I recommend it to anyone that wants to try the Greek gyro in its original authentic form. And for those of you that do eat gyro, this spot does an honorable job.
got the Sinner without mustard and a side of garlic eggplant. so good. wish it had some greens maybe but otherwise no improvements needed. got it on uber eats and it came fast & was still amazing
A little shop where you can grab a nice Mediterranean meal. It is fast food but the quality is good. There are a few tables for people to sit down. Me and my wife enjoyed a quick meal before attending a show in the Miller Theater, a walking distance away.
Yeeroh is the best! If you want awesome, fresh Greek food, this is the place to go. I have ordered from here countless times. They offer Greek classics as well as new, interesting Greek-style creations. Delicious, over-stuffed gyros are their bread-and-butter. The prices are reasonable, and delivery is VERY fast. I have tried a bunch of things from their very large menu.
The Classic Ap'Ola sandwich is fantastic. It's a very classic Greek gyro (pita, pork, fries, tomato, red onion, tzatziki). The pork is juicy and has tons of flavor. The homemade tzatziki sauce is honestly the best tzatziki sauce I’ve ever had. It’s thick, tangy, and has big chunks of cucumber in it. If you want a standard, authentic gyro then you won’t be disappointed with this.
The Diavolo sandwich is by far my favorite thing on the menu. I was unsure if I’d like it, but I’m so glad that I gave it a chance. It’s incredible. Everything on the sandwich compliments each other so nicely. The salty meat and fries combined with cucumber is a delicious contrast. The spicy feta and ghost pepper hot sauce taste absurdly good. I now prefer this sandwich over a classic gyro every time because of how extremely interesting it is. It’s a very hot sandwich, but if you think you can handle it then you’ll love it.
To speak on some of their sides: They have great smooth, and savory hummus. Their french fries are golden in color, seasoned very well, and soft & crispy at the same time. They are excellent on their own and perfect for going in a gyro. The only thing that I’ve tried that I didn’t love was the breaded zucchini fries. They were just OK because they were soggy. But maybe they’re better at the restaurant rather than though delivery.
For dessert, I’ve tried their homemade baklava and I’m a big fan of it. It’s sweet, has a crunchy layer of nuts, and is very flaky. It’s great baklava.
They let you customize the salads, sandwiches, bowls, and trays, so you can get whatever you want. They have so many options of proteins, toppings, and spreads to choose from. The trays are huge portions – great for if you’re very hungry. Most other places don’t offer chicken, pork, AND lamb & beef gyros.
South Street Souvlaki, another great Greek restaurant, is similar, but I prefer Yeeroh. South Street Souvlaki’s gyros have lamb & beef while Yeeroh offers many meats, one being pork. I can never forget being told by friends from Greece that pork is the meat that belongs in a gyro. Also, while South Street Souvlaki has great tzatziki, you can’t beat Yeeroh’s.
Overall, it’s delicious, flavorful, authentic, and creative Greek food. The menu is huge, so there should be something for everyone.

Just okay overall experience. Ordered a plate with lamb/beef gyro meat and the fried feta sticks. Prepared and delivered with expected ETA.
Portion was generous but the plate had some problems. The gyro meat was very dry which was disappointing. I added some of my own tzaziki which helped a bit. The fries were completely soggy (and I'm only 10 minutes from restaurant) as was some of the pita. The cucumbers were weirdly warm because of the hot meat on top of the salad. I'd recommend they package this differently for to-go orders separating the hot and cold items. Otherwise, spicy feta dip and rest of flavors were ok, but nothing I'd crave.
Feta sticks themselves were good, but I didn't care for the sweet sauce (personal preference).
I'd give them one more shot if I wanted quick Greek as most of the issues were fixable problems (the dry meat might just have been an off day, and I wouldn't order a mixed hot/cold dish for delivery again).

We spent hours deciding on where we wanted to eat today... I AM SO HAPPY WE WENT HERE. The food was incredible. Even our 11 year old said it was the best food he's eaten in a while. Lol. I can't wait to come back!!
Greek/middle eastern foodery with amazing fries, salads, and pita sandwiches. The service is friendly, quick and enjoyable. Sandwiches are $8-15. They have hand crafted desserts, falafel and sodas. Highly recommend after a night out on south street.
