Go head and start one for every sandwich, every meat, every cheese and every condiment

7/19/2010 12:11:27 PM

^that's what seems to be happening. So fuck it, I made one b/c I wanted to know where to get a good gyro

Thanks arog20012001!

7/19/2010 12:13:54 PM

I really can't think of any other establishment in the area that even begins to approach the greatness that is a Nur's Deli gyro.

7/19/2010 12:22:43 PM

Neomonde?

7/19/2010 12:24:10 PM

What the fuck is a gyro?

7/19/2010 12:26:11 PM

i do like nur deli

7/19/2010 12:27:33 PM

Nur Deli

mark it down.

7/19/2010 12:27:42 PM

on a related note, has anyone been to hector's/taza recently? there is a younger white guy working there now, and he calls everyone "boss" too...it seems that may be a requirement to work there

7/19/2010 12:30:26 PM

Where is Hector's?

really?

"Gyros or gyro is a Greek dish, consisting of meat, tomato, onion, and tzatziki sauce, and is served with pita bread. Gyros may also refer to the sandwich, which consists of the same ingredients."

party in a pita usually has discount coupons in the technician but their gyros were meh.

While I throughly enjoy a gyro, they are pretty much uniform in taste across the board.

7/19/2010 12:32:33 PM

Naw, it's the meat seasoning and the tzatziki sauce that sets a good gyros apart from a great gyros.

party in a pita is closed. They've gone back to the food-truck-only business plan. You can find them at just about any large outdoor event. Good people.

philly steak & subs on new bern ave near the hospital
/thread

7/19/2010 12:45:44 PM

Neomonde doesn't have gyros. I'd go with Nur Deli, from the limited ones I've tried.

7/19/2010 12:58:40 PM

^i'm pissed i didn't think of your screen name first

7/19/2010 1:01:31 PM

Well I did register 5 years before you, so...

7/19/2010 1:05:15 PM

yea - i would have wanted it in the context of a cod5:waw character

7/19/2010 1:08:58 PM

wow with all the Nur Deli responses you'd think the thread was titled "Best Gyro near Campus" and not "Best Gyro in Raleigh"


Solomons and La Shish are up there for me

7/19/2010 1:24:10 PM

IF YOU'RE FROM RALEIGH YOU KNOW THAT HECTORS AT THE MALL AND ESPECIALLY TAZA GRILL AT SUTTON SQUARE ARE THE BEST, SON.

this has been a SaabTurbo tribute.

7/19/2010 1:48:57 PM

Oh is that the name of the place in Crabtree? I never pay attention to the names of restaurants in the mall

7/19/2010 1:51:00 PM

haha yeah Hectors has been around since Crabtree opened while other businesses have FAILED.

7/19/2010 1:57:05 PM

Nur Deli >>>>>>>>>> Hector's

Hector's uses frozen strips

this

7/19/2010 3:19:13 PM

usually the big hunk o' meat is Doner Kebob (chicken stuck together to look like a giant leg of something, similar to deli cuts before they're cut) but Taza Grill has actually leg of lamb they shave off

7/19/2010 3:22:10 PM

^is Taza grill in the corner of some strip mall?

7/19/2010 3:23:19 PM

dude. fuck a chicken-parts gyro.

I want straight up EuroMeat/Gyro Meat, which is basically a meatloaf with Lamb and beef comprising the main ingredients.

7/19/2010 3:27:03 PM

I used to live in Astoria, Qns. Biggest concentration of Greeks outside of Greece itself.

I know a good gyro when I eat one

7/19/2010 3:29:16 PM

^^^haha yeah it is in Sutton Square in the back left corner (respectively) beside a Planet Smoothie and the Fresh Market

Yeah it's off Falls of the Neuse Rd.



speaking of quick greek food though, i'm a big fan of Jasmine Bistro (cary towncenter and hillsborough st). for Lebanese, I like Aladdin's Eatery off Falls of the Neuse. It's a chain, but a damn good one.

7/19/2010 4:07:01 PM

Yeah, I've been to Taza Grill once or twice, and I remember the gyros being really good

7/19/2010 4:09:51 PM

go to Apex, and eat at Xios Cafe.

7/19/2010 6:33:46 PM

I like XIOS a lot. Like a lot. But the gyro is not one of their better offerings.

If you're going to go all the way to Apex, to a straight-up Greek restaurant, do yourself a favor, order something other than the gyro... Unless of course, you're a pussy, and don't like trying anything new...

7/19/2010 6:40:11 PM

For gyros the best I can claim to have had is at Nur Deli, but now I am intrigued to try some of these other places.

However, for other Mediterranean food, it's Neomonde or bust. God, I miss the days when my buddy used to work there and would shamelessly give me $10 of food for 79 cents.
