The gyro is one of the most iconic Mediterranean street foods — and at Istanbul Mediterranean, we serve it with the quality and authenticity that sets us apart. Our gyro-style döner features perfectly seasoned meat, carved from the rotisserie and served with fresh vegetables, tangy tzatziki, and warm pita.
Explore our full menu, including the Beef & Lamb Döner Turkish Pita and Falafel Turkish Pita.
Gyro Meets Turkish Döner
The gyro (pronounced 'YEE-roh') originated in Greece as an adaptation of the Turkish döner kebab. While the cooking method is the same — meat on a vertical rotisserie — the Greek version traditionally features seasoned ground meat and is served with tzatziki sauce. At Istanbul Mediterranean, our approach combines the best of both traditions.
Beyond the Classic Gyro
While the traditional gyro is served in pita, we offer multiple ways to enjoy this Mediterranean favorite. Try it as a rice bowl for a more filling meal, or as a salad bowl for a lighter option. Our lavash wrap offers a thinner, crispier alternative. And for pure indulgence, our fries bowl loads gyro-style döner over crispy French fries.
