Gyros evolved from the Middle Eastern shawarma and Turkish döner kebab, brought to Greece after World War II. The vertical spit roasting technique was adapted, and the dish was incorporated into Greek cuisine using local ingredients and flavors.

Regional Variations

The Pita Gyros offers a savory and tangy flavor profile, balanced with creamy and refreshing elements.
The meat (typically pork or chicken) is seasoned with a blend of herbs and spices like oregano, thyme, garlic, and cumin, giving it a warm, savory, and slightly earthy taste. The tzatziki sauce provides a cool, creamy, and tangy counterpoint with its yogurt, cucumber, garlic, and dill. The pita bread adds a soft, slightly chewy texture and a mild, doughy flavor. Tomatoes offer a fresh, juicy sweetness, while onions add a sharp, pungent bite. French Fries add a salty carbohydrate component.

Meat Marination
Marinating the meat for several hours or overnight enhances the flavor and tenderness of the gyros. Using a blend of olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs creates a delicious marinade.
Tzatziki Preparation
Strain the grated cucumber before adding it to the yogurt to prevent the tzatziki from becoming too watery. Use Greek yogurt for a richer and thicker sauce.
Pita Bread Warming
Warm the pita bread before assembling the gyros to make it more pliable and flavorful. You can use a dry skillet, oven, or grill.
Assembly Technique
Layer the ingredients carefully, starting with the tzatziki, followed by the meat, tomatoes, onions, and fries, to ensure a balanced flavor profile in each bite.
