5 Restaurants to Grab Gyros To Go Across Canada

Pork, beef, lamb or a blend cooked on a vertical rotisserie, sliced and served on a pita with tomato, onion, and tzatziki. These are the delicious makings of Greek fast-food poster-child, the Gyro. Visit any Greektown across the country and you’re bound to find a delicious local version. Close cousin of the Arab shawarma and the Turkish doner kebab, this delectable street food is sure to satisfy. Here are 5 spots across Canada where you can grab a gyro to go.

Authentic recipes and the finest fresh ingredients make for an amazing version of a gyro, which you can find at one of two Tzatziki Restaurant locations, one on Mount Pleasant and one on Pape. Guests rave about the portion sizes – they don’t skimp on quantity or quality. Alongside your gyro, you won’t want to miss their homemade Spanakopita!
