Gyro City

Gyro City on Chestnut Hill Avenue serves chicken and pork gyros tucked into pita with fries, tomatoes and onions. Souvlaki offers another route, with skewered meat instead of sliced gyro meat. Falafel, hummus and vegetable pitas give you choices for a meatless lunch, and larger dinner plates are available when a sandwich won’t quite do it.

The restaurant also lists Greek salads and catering, so it can handle both an individual lunch and food for a group. Use the Brighton branch when ordering: its own website gives the address as 181 Chestnut Hill Avenue. It’s open through the evening, with a slightly earlier Sunday close. A pita and a side make a simple takeout order for the trip home.
