What Tuscaloosa is saying

Real reviews from people who eat here: students, locals, and weekend visitors.

Stopped in for lunch and tried the Original Gyro. Incredible. Loaded with beef and lamb, fries crispy outside and soft inside. Everything was perfect. Next time I’m in Tuscaloosa, I’m coming back for the pizza too.

Erik H.

Ordered the Surf-N-Turf gyro and it came out in about five minutes. Steak, shrimp, pepperjack, and comeback sauce. A handful and delicious. Filling, fast, and exactly what we wanted.

Lorraine P.

Ah I love GB!! The number one thing I’d recommend are their Chicken Gyros. I’ve had their pizzas too, and they’re solid. Easy downtown spot I keep coming back to.
