You say, “Being from Chicago, I am used to gyros that are packed so high with meat that you have to eat half the meat before you can make a sandwich out of it, and Christos does it just like that. I honestly think Christos has even better gyros than the ones I used to get when I lived up north.” and “Wonderful, mouthwatering meat and the best dressing you will ever have. Yummo!”

1. Cafe Agora
The AJC dining team’s Popular Eats specialist Jon Watson says, “Cafe Agroa, with its friendly and eccentric owner, consistently serves up my favorite gyro in town. While the prices seem to change depending on the day of the week, a trip to Buckhead for one of these no-fuss, classic gyros is certainly worth it.”

I have sampled most of them and the best Gyro wrap is at BLU in Marietta. Try it and you will never eat another Gyro anywhere else.

It’s an AWESOME restaurant with home made Greek food, wonderful American dishes. I normally get the all meat pizza cut in squares or gyro platter; both are TO DIE FOR!! I love the new location, its bigger and brighter and the food and service are both EXCELLENT!!

This is really funny…Kouzina Christos has been blasting this link on FB every chance they can get…hence, all the nominations.
While they are the best choice OTP and in the Cobb area, the best gyro around is Grecian Gyro…the original is on Virginia Ave. in Hapeville, they have several outposts as well. I’ve never had a gyro that is so consistent. Having lived in Greektown in Detroit for awhile, I have to say it’s the closest true greek gyro around. The tzatziki sauce has it’s own flair & is consistent (they will sell you bottles of it and their greek dressing), the meat is flavorful and juicy and the price is right on.

Two words for Christos! “Number One” I am so spoiled with the quality and flavor of the Gyro Plate. Needless to say, I go no place else to dine when I have a taste for Gyro!!! 5 ***** stars!!!

Kouzina Christos! It’s the same people as Christos, which I saw someone say closed. It’s a new place on Powers Ferry Road in the same plaza as the new LA Fitness. Their desserts are also to die for! Bourbon flavored Gelato and some of the best baklava I’ve ever had. The owner reccomended we try Galaktoboureko, which was one of the other desserts. It was incredibly tasty!

Ths is kind of one of those tings where I think it’s kind of sill to say that one gyro is “hands down” the best. I prefer Grecian Gyro but at the end of the day, could I pick it out of a line up of gyros? Probably not

I heart gyros! First night in Atlanta I went to the original Christos location. 30 years later, Christos still has the best Gyro I have ever had.
