Roast beef is best followed by Greek and then Turkey

Had one for lunch today they are awesome.

I had a coupon and was hungry, otherwise I probably wouldn't have tried them.

Surprisingly it was pretty good.

I think they are ok, I only get them when I have a coupon

I use the coupon. The first one is better than the second.

I agree.
When first introduced, Arby’s had a 2 for 1 gyro and I indulged.
Yummy!

I've had a few of the Greeks.
I'd eat'em again, if they still had'em.

I like the turkey best, and I'm not a big fan of turkey lunch meat. The seasoning goes well. Almost a souvlaki taste.

Today, OP was a moron.

They're OK.

k, just ordered from Uber. lets see if OP is telling the truth or not.

The "Best" shitty sandwich is still a shitty sandwich.

For fast food, they are good. I stand with the OP

I like both the turkey and traditional meat. They are not as good as a dedicated Greek restaurant, but for a fast food joint, they are pretty good. The sauce is a little different and runny, but overall a solid 7 out of 10.

It's not gyro at all.

Posted: 8/19/2020 4:04:09 PM EDT

I’m so hungry, I could eat at Arbys.

Their venison sandwich will always be the GOAT

Posted: 8/19/2020 4:07:40 PM EDT

[#18]

Their two for $6 right now at my Arby's. With a medium seasoned curly fry (best fast food fries anywhere) it's like $9 and change. Hard to beat. We like the Greek.

I'd rather just hit the Greek place.

They have that perfect mix of beef and lamb and cook it on the spit thing

I had one once, it was very disappointing and I got the flu

Best Gyro I ever had was when I was stationed in Schwabach Germany. There was a small place run by Turks that slow cooked the lamb on a spit and made their own pita bread. you'd walk up to the window and place your order for a Gyro and then they had about 25 bins of different toppings you could choose from. those fucking things were to die for.

Posted: 8/19/2020 4:10:16 PM EDT

[#24]

There are at least 5 other places I'm going to go to for a gyro first that are NOT Arby's.

That said, I have nothing against Arby's. Real question what brand of gyro meat? I like Olympia with Kronos second.

Their Reubens are good.

Just learned on Friday, they no longer have onion rings!

Arby's HAD the best onion rings, one day closer to the pockylcips!

"best fast food" is an incredibly low bar

Posted: 8/19/2020 4:26:16 PM EDT

[#36]

The greek one is the best. Notice I used a small g but it's not bad for a chain-eatery sammich.

Their rubens sorta suck but I always compare a Ruben to the ones I make myself so they all come-up way short.

Their cod sammich is also pretty good.

Posted: 8/19/2020 4:26:54 PM EDT

Agreed.

They are surprisingly good.

Thats true it's a nice change from the regular burger joints.

Greek with extra sauce.

The only other place in town that sells gyros is very good. But not at twice the money good.

OP is mostly correct. The "Greek" one is the best tho

I was pleasantly surprised when I tried them.

Loved those things living there, got them often in Switzerland too. And have one with a Rivella Rot, yum. Rivella is a Swiss drink.

I like the Greek one too just the roast beef one seemed more flavorful.

For fast food, they are pretty good. I've been to Greece and Turkey and I still enjoy them. I've had worse gyros from "greek" places in the states.

Posted: 8/19/2020 4:41:06 PM EDT

Without their ''sauce'' they are OK, however they don't compare to a genuine Greek restaurant.

With their sauce, they are horrid, I think they scoop up the cum from porn sets and sell it as ''gyro'' sauce as it's the nastiest shit I have ever tasted. Rancid mayo mixes with rotten eggs would be a vast improvement.

I really have to ask myself, who the F do they have tasting their food and going ''this is pretty tasty, market it as a gyro sauce.'' SOB must eat horse shit mixed with month old dead fish for dinner nightly and thinks it's a feast fit for a king.

I've tried them twice. Both times they were not hot enough. Lukewarm at best. Two different places. Also not nearly as good as a Greek restaurant gyro. Kind of pricey too considering I can get a decent Greek salad at a real Greek place with the gyro for the same price as Arby's.

It gets a C+ in my book. Not terrible, but why?
