★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Demetra Tate · Dec 2025

This is the second time we ordered delivery from this restaurant. The first time I thought it was just a one time bad order and food and let it go. I was able to get a refund on one of our items so I let things be as they were. I ordered again today for lunch and when the food arrive, disappointed was not the word. My husband ordered the Mix Kebab salad and I had the chicken wrap. It is crazy to pay an extra dollar for feta; completely passed on that. My husband salad looked like a side dish of left over meat someone threw in a box. There were actually 3 pieces of chopped chicken! For the cost of that, we expected way more. The picture speaks for itself. I also ordered the chickpea soup in a cup and that was so tasteless. The picture shows a wine cork beside the cup size for reference. Thi

When visiting #InstanbulGyronandKebab, expect an enjoyable selection of mixed appetizers featuring their eggplant salad, stuffed grape leaves (“dolma”), hummus served with warm pita bread, spinach and feta cheese pie, and tzatziki sauce. Yum! • The gyro platter is a standout: a delicious specialty of lamb and beef freshly shaved from the rotisserie, served with a side of salad and rice. And don’t miss the soft, flaky, fresh-baked baklava—it’s the dessert Downtown Norfolk that will have you craving your next visit to #NorfolkVa

Had lunch at Istanbul Gyro & Kebab. The place was clean and well-organized, and the service was friendly and efficient. The food was fresh and made with quality ingredients. Personally, I would have preferred a bit more flavor — a touch more spice on the kebab and some garlic in the tzatziki would have made it perfect. Overall, a solid experience and worth a visit.

I love it here. They make you feel welcome when you walk in. The food is legit. I especially loved the eggplant salad and baklava! The salad was so refreshing. If you’re a meat lover, you can see the gyro meat being cooked, spun, and carved. I love the music on their playlist. So chill! I wish I had more cash to tip them more because they were amazing!

★★★★★ 5.0 WatchMe Flip · Mar 2025

This dining gem is nestled in the heart of downtown Norfolk, perfectly situated among Granby’s finest streets and just across from the Scope. The quality of their pristine cuisine is matched only by their exceptional customer service, marking an epoch of excellence. I’ll definitely return soon with friends, eagerly recommending this spot for a quick, delicious bite!
