Captain Pete's House of Gyros 1184B Capital Circle Northeast, Tallahassee, FL 32301

"I visit Captain Pete's every time that I am in Tallahassee. I live in the Virgin Islands. Gyro Deluxe is my go to order. Always a warm fresh wrap, plenty of gyro meat, feta cheese and the BEST tomatoes with lettuce. I'll be back at Captain Pete's on my next visit."

"I've never waited so long for a fried gyro. 32 minutes later and 21.85 wasted for just 2 yes 2 gyros. Never had them deep fried or with what ever mayonnaise type mixture that was supposed to be the sauce was sour and the feta was old. Pita was so soggy with grease it was just un safe to eat. The inside is very outdated and the decor is old and dirty. I didn't even want to sit down. The lady whom took my monies was very nice to the lady and daughter in front of me but really was short and stand offish to us. They were near closing and they ate only open during a short period of time during the day and I see why. Arby's has a better more quality Gyro. This was just disappointing and over priced!!!"

"We ordered ahead but still has to wait for the food. We arrived at 11.30 (they open at 11am) and we appeared to be the second customers to be served. When we picked up our food at the counter it was hot! Everything tasted good and was fresh. The pitas were toasted for the hummus and that was a pleasant crunch. It was tasty, I wished that I had a little more tzatziki sauce on my classic gyro with tomatoes."

"Not fresh or authentic. The meat was some processed flat piece of something, I don’t actually know what kind of meat it was. There wasn’t any red onion and I couldn’t find cucumber. The sauce on it was good but not very strong tasting. They don’t have French fries which is a must on gyros if you’ve ever been to Greece. I couldn’t finish my deluxe gyro."

"Captain Pete's House of Gyros is owned by a brother and sister team. Not only do they own it, but they also work there 6 days of the week. These are quiet, nice people who work hard to put out a darn good product. I ordered 2 items; The Camel and a special order King Gyro. I like my gyros with cucumbers instead of tomatoes, and was happy when they agreed to the substitution with a smile. The King Gyro is a pretty fine gyro. They toasted the pita, which was a surprise, as so many just use the cold pita right out of the package or slightly steamed. This Gyro was loaded. Gyro meat, onions, plenty of garlicky tzatziki sauce and finished with a hefty amount of feta cheese. The camel is a whopper of a sandwich, and one I don't recommend you try to eat in your car or while wearing white. It's listed as pepper ground beef, but it's so much more, The sauce is intriguing (and may not be for everyone) reminding me of the minced meat filling found in Moussaka. It has an undertone of cinnamon, or one of the spices in that family. Loads of beef filling, onions, tomatoes and tzatsiki sauce. I added a finishing touch of hot sauce which made this pita a very satisfying sandwich. I noticed a few reviews where people mentioned high prices and one saying they spent almost $30 on 2 sandwiches. These 2 came to $17, which is on par for most sandwich places that serve hearty selections. These were hearty, filling and very tasty."
