The food was good. The salad was great! The lemonade was delicious. I ordered a spinach pie type meal and had to pay for tzatziki sauce. It was a little hot inside. We WILL be going back:)

OMG .... that was THE best Gyro I've ever had! And huge ... no judgment, I ate the whole thing. The favors of the meat were incredible. It was savory, hot and delicious. I could not take a picture because I dove right in. You can tell they know what they are doing and are proud of what they serve. The tzatziki has be homemade, that was so good. We were immediately greeted and the service was spot on. She was smiling and friendly. Overall great experience. I highly recommend checking this place out!

One of the best places to eat around, the quality/quantity and price is unbeatable and hasn’t changed in YEARS, unlike most restaurants getting more expensive using less inferior quality food, Gilshar is truly a gem. Great place to dine in or take out would recommend 10 stars if could lol

Gilshar is consistently delicious every time I order. Whether it is take out or sitting down, I’m never disappointed with the food or welcoming atmosphere. My favorite thing on the menu is their grilled chicken over salad with added grilled onions. I get a Greek salad almost everywhere I go, and they have by far the best one!! Their gyros are delicious too. Best Greek food around!!
