Munchie philly& gyro 1035 Southeast Tacoma Street, Portland, OR 97202

"I am so sad to write this review because my son and I used to love the food here. I understand that inflation has made things hard on lots of businesses but I cannot. The chicken burger used to be prepared by the restaurant. It was so juicy and fresh. But now it’s literally like two breaded chicken breasts from Costco. Now it looks like Costco chicken Patty’s and American cheese and fries for $16 and it was so bad we didn’t finish it. The meal I usually get is the kabobs. And usually it’s tender and the jasmine rice is light and fluffy with deliciously seasoned flavors, the tzatziki sauce used to be light and refreshing, but now it’s thick and much too much garlic with a weird aftertaste, the jasmine rice was precooked and then fried in the frying pan to reheat for my meal. Unbelievable. The hummus is now bland and the worst part of it is that the beef kabob was hard. It was like it had been pre cooked and then put in the frying pan again to reheat it. I know the man who owns this place is a great cook. But it looks like they have made changes in the menu, replacing delicious, fresh food for lower quality premade food. And have made some preparation changes where they cook the food ahead and just reheat it in a frying pan. My kabob was $18 and I used to justify the price because even though it’s a food cart, and there’s nowhere nice to sit, and we eat out of the container, the flavor was phenomenal and it was fresh. But now it’s totally and completely unacceptable."

"I’m happy to support food trucks and small businesses but this was a very subpar experience. I’d heard that the chicken sandwich was “SO GOOD” but I think that was back when the chicken patty’s weren’t the frozen compressed kind that remind me of bad cafeteria food. The fries were crispy and hot but the chicken sandwich was disgusting and I couldn’t eat it."

"We ate ab half and tossed the rest. The meat tasted frozen and poor quality in both the lamb Philly & Gyro. Cute spot, but the food is lacking."

"The Philly here is amazing!! The meat was tender, juicy and flavorful. Got the Philly with smoked provolone and I highly recommend it. The onions and peppers were perfectly cooked as well. Delicious to the last bite. The fries were slightly crispy and super fluffy on the inside. They were also perfectly seasoned. Can't wait to try something new the next time I'm working in the area."

"The homemade sambusas were so amazing I had to leave a review. I had one of each kind (beef, chicken, veggie) and all three were superb. Crispy pastry, beautifully seasoned filling, nice sauce. The lamb gyro was also great, and the hot sauce was actually quite spicy. Chicken plate was great. Even my son's hot dog was great. Highly recommended!"
