What Tracy Zapparato likes about Kosta's Gyros:
I’ve been visiting Kostas since the late 80’s! They have the best Greek chicken!! I haven’t been there for a few years, and my sister and I went for lunch. The chicken was a delicious as I remembered! the minute you put in your order it’s up and ready within 3 minutes (depending on what you order). They are really quick to get your order to you! I hope to go back again maybe this summer. keep up the great work!! View all feedback. What Kathy B doesn't like about Kosta's Gyros:
Food was cold and gyros now taste like there is oregano in the meat. $33 for a gyro sandwiches and plate and couldn't get through half my sandwich. Done. Not sure if it's under new management but it now sucks!!! Our third time giving them a second chance. No more View all feedback.

Customer Service is always exceptional. We love their Gyros, soups and more. We usually meet our Palatine family members there for a lunch.

Kosta's, a family-friendly restaurant in Palatine, has been serving up delicious Greek food for decades. The cheeseburger is juicy and the gyro plate comes with generous portions of meat. The crispy fries may not be everyone's favorite, but the fresh food and friendly staff make up for it. Customers drive for hours just to enjoy a meal at Kosta's, and the Greek chicken is a fan favorite. While some find the prices a bit high, the quick service and tasty gyros keep them coming back. The restaurant has a variety of options on the menu, but the gyros are a must-try. Even though the prices have increased over the years, the food quality remains consistent. While the service may be a bit slow at times, the delicious food and friendly staff make it worth the wait. With rave reviews from loyal customers and out-of-town visitors alike, Kosta's continues to be a beloved spot for Greek cuisine in the Palatine area.

Good Gyros. It's been a while since I've been out for Gyros so I don't know if $14 is normal for a Gyros and fries is normal. Seems high to me.

This place has been here for 20+ years and there's a good reason why - They do basic Italian/Gyros/Burgers and they do them right! Nothing special, nothing

I came in here for takeout on my lunch break and it was great! I got the gyro sandwich with an extra side of gyro sauce (well worth the extra 0.75¢ if you
