Gyro Mena - Chicago

Custom gyros with tons of meat lol. They are huge! I'm used to gyros being half this size. The meat is cut and grilled at the moment and you can choose from a bunch of ingredients to customize you gyro. I'm glad I made the trip out here. I was staying by the cloud gate, took the red/brown train to Belmont and it drops you off right next to here. I highly recommend the gyro. Also got a slice of cheese cake, was also very very good.

By far the best cheap gyro I can find in the area. Pork here is your best option for meat, followed by lamb/beef, and finally chicken. Staff is friendly, and takes time to pop the meat and pita onto the flat top grill for at least 5 minutes prior to preparing the gyro. But what really sets Gyro Mena apart is the topping selection and good luck actually closing the pita to eat it once you do load up with toppings. The foil wrapping can hold it together for a bit, but at some point every gyro ordered here will become open faced. Recommendation: order the pork gyro greek style (fries inside), load up toppings (including tzatziki and hot sauce) and you will not be disappointed! Pictured: American style (beef and lamb)

Fresh, delicious and very generous portions. Meats available are chicken, pork and gyro meat (lamb and beef). Don’t miss this place.

They let you make your own gyro with either lamb, beef, pork, or chicken. Even better, there are a ton of toppings to choose from at no extra cost. Definitely visit if you’re a gyro lover like myself!

Customize you gyro however you want. Three meat options, 20-30 topping options. The spanikopita, Greek potatoes, and other options are about as good as you can get for this price tier. The ambiance? Cute signs, but otherwise... its a place to sit down and eat.
