The Singing Gyro Girls

Beer, Baklava, and Beatles.
Dino's Gyros > Burien > 126 SW 148th St # C160 > 98166

Hungry, lazy and broke from our ridiculously expensive dinner the night before, my partner, Tanner, and I needed some cheap and fast food. Heading to the local Pho restaurant, Tanner suggested that we stop by Dino's Gyros. Although hesitant, because I never can find Mediterranean food quite as good as the Med Mix, I agreed.

As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by an exuberant, dimpled young woman who seemed genuinely excited to be there (who was later joined by a second young lady). Tanner and I were each going to order a lamb gyro -but were promptly stopped by the cashier and were told to split the lamb "doner". Apparently, a doner is a kind of Turkish sandwich. To make a long story short, for $20 total, we had a DELICIOUS sandwich on fresh baked crusty bread (the size of my head) filled with huge helpings of lamb, feta, lettuce, tomato, onion, Kalamata olives, and the best tzaziki sauce I have ever eaten. We shared a paper plate full of greek salad. In the midst of devouring our salads, we noticed that they sold pints of Blue Moon for $2.50!!! I've NEVER seen Blue Moon for $2.50. We rounded off our filling meal with a large piece of baklava. Mmmmm! Throughout the entire meal, our Gyro girls were serenading us with oldies.

Here are the top 5 things I LOVE about Dino's Gyros:

5. CHEAP EATS!
4. Fresh Baked Doner Bread the SIZE of MY HEAD
3. $2.50 Blue Moon Pints
2. Perfect hangout for a mellow weeknight.

There are two things I would suggest to the owners of this wonderful place...invest in some higher quality plastic silverware (I would have had an easier time eating with chopsticks! Try cutting gooey baklava with a flimsy knife!) and use a little fresher cucumber (they were starting to get see-through). Other than that -GO THERE! SO GOOD!
