Mediterranean Made Fast and Tasty at Gyros Express {#ReviewCrew}

Typically when we talk about fast food, we think of the classic standards... and, even if our consciences say that we shouldn't be eating them, the convenience (and taste) ends up winning out. Life is often a crazy, hectic, busy rush from one location to the next, so being able to grab a quick meal to keep us going can be a necessity.

Fortunately though, there are options other than fast food chains and the same old, same old that we're used to.

Thanks to Restaurant.com, our most recent discovery that provides affordability, flavor and speed is available right in West Towne Mall in Madison, WI. Skip the greasy burgers and head to Gyros Express instead!

Offering delicious dining, takeout and delivery, Gyros Express is located only steps inside the mall food court. It's the perfect option whether you're just driving by or want to have a bite of tasty Mediterranean cuisine while doing some shopping!

While I had taken a look at the Gyros Express menu online prior to our arrival, I still couldn't help but browse the various photos posted to see what their various items (made only with high quality fresh ingredients) looked like.

Not to mention that there is something for just about everyone at Gyros Express. Fried chicken, beef, grilled chicken, hot dogs, fish, kabobs, salads, onion rings — the list goes on and on!

After a quick chat with the friendly staff, it wasn't long before they were working on making our orders fresh for lunch.

Just a few minutes later, Little Sister B was thrilled to sit down with her Chicken Nuggets...

...and I couldn't wait to dig in to my Falafel.

Yum and yum!

The veggies (onions, lettuce and tomatoes) were fresh, the tzatziki sauce was smooth and delicious, the pita was warm and soft, and the falafels themselves were crisp and delectable. Aside from the fact that this was a little difficult to eat without dropping pieces left and right, my Gyros Express lunch was just about perfect!

In fact, had I not been stuffed from my Falafel, I have no doubt that Little Sister B would have happily agreed to try out the restaurant's dessert hit, Sweet Baklava.

Although we don't spend as much time at the mall as we did in years past, I will definitely keep Gyros Express in mind the next time we are stopping in or driving by. The staff was friendly, the location is convenient, and the Mediterranean food was great. What more could we ask for?

In fact, for those especially big fans, I love that Gyros Express even offers a punch card for a FREE lunch entree!
