Zorbas Mediterrean Grill, San Antonio

Zorbas is ok but only average. The gyros are good but very little meat. Much prefer other Greek restaurants. This was our first visit and we will not be returning.

I rarely give so little stars. But service is so important to me. Yes, food taste is too but nothing puts a damper on hungry folks than a not so nice experience. Drove in late into town and yelped some Greek food because my daughter...whom we are celebrating her birthday in town for craved Greek food. We researched too and the reviews were good for this place albeit when we were picking up the food I read more negative reviews in the past :/ Whoever wrote it's good not great was on point. I upped a star because some of the food tasted pretty good. Not the best we've had but good. Its not wow so it surprises me that so many people gave such good reviews for this place. Is Greek food not that great here in SA? Because in Austin there are a few wow ones worthy of 4-5 stars Back to my review. First off, we called it in because it was already 7:30 and wanted to pick it up. Nowhere does it say they charge a take out fee for each item you order. What? We ordered 6 items and they charged couple bucks. Not for delivery but for take out? Didn't even see that until we left the place. Got our food. And wanted more sauce for our gyros. We paid over $60 with tip. Its not that unreasonable to ask for couple more sauce packets. They gave 2 for the platters but wanted a bit more for the gyros. They charged 50 cents for each. Hmmm...ok We were about to pay because there is this sweet young man with a big smile who ran to the back to get them but then his older sister got up grumpily to the register and gruffily replied it will cost us. We asked kindly if it's possible to throw in a couple since we ordered alot of food but she grouchily said no. Her attitude stunk. We don't need the sauce that bad. We were already wondering how good this place will be since there's no one here for dinner. Plus when I peeked into the boxes all I saw were skimpy stale fries. But we were hungry and gobbled it up. Its not worth. Specially with that attitude. Especially since we ordered so much and wanted a good hot meal. They were sloppily put together too as you can see in my pics but I gotta be fair and said the wraps had a good amount of meat. Soggy but tasty but it's not authentic and chopped up. Pieces of lamb and beef would be nice. Its like mystery meat. It tastes odd but we ate it. The chicken tikka kebab hmm is it a kebab? It's tangy with curry chopped up again. The platters is what earned them a star. They were tasty. Kafta and gyro with rice and salad was good. But at $11 in a to go box, it better be. So sorry but not the best experience. More so because of her gruffy attitude. Her younger bro was totally sweet and shocked she charged us too. He earned that star too. Good service esp for 1st experiences are so important. Be kind, a tad generous, smile. Works wonders. Great generous portions of tasty food goes hand in hand. Lesson learned to read ALL reviews not just 1st page of Yelp :/More

Went here because the people I was traveling with wanted gyros. It’s in a little strip mall. Simple family owned joint. Our waiter was about 13. He did a nice job. We had the hummus. It was good. We ordered a side of tabouli, it...also was good. The two people that ordered gyros were a little surprised when the gyros came out deconstructed. They both said they were excellent. I had the chicken Shawarma. It to was very good. You get a little hummus and a small Greek salad too. I would certainly try this joint out.More

First time there and the food was delicious. My aerobic class meets once a month at different restaurants and this month we wanted to try something different. We made a good choice.

Great food, location, and service. Prices are reasonable, too. My new favorite Greek north of San Antonio.

We ordered 2 gyros and 1 grilled cheese for take out as its 4 minutes down the road. 1 gyro was supposed to have no tomatoes and onions and the other no onions. Both gyros had no tomatoes no onions and what seems to be...no sauce. The gyros were very dry and the lettuce was soggy, slimy, and wilted. The fries were also cold and soggy except the kids fries they were warm but barely cooked. The grilled cheese smelled funny and the cheese wasn't even melted. A $5 cheese sandwhich with undercooked fries went straight into the trash as my child wouldn't even eat it. They charge 80 cents per box on top of all of this. So we paid $2.40 extra to bring the crap food home. Definitely won't be back.More

Don't let the "greek" title fool you - the owner is from Jordan and cooks a great set of authentic middle eastern dishes. We are frequent visitors, and have had them cater birthday parties for us too. The falafel, haloumi, and hummus are great starters,...and the schwarma, chicken tikka, and lentil soup plates are exceptional. And surprisingly, if you like french fries, they are super tasty too! If there's kanofe available for dessert - don't pass it up! Give the "fresh lemonade" a try - its not always available and they sometimes run out - but man oh man - its good. The servers are always accommodating - and if its not disruptive to other customers, let us watch cartoons or other kid friendly shows on the TV during dinner - awesome touch!More

Went with friends hoping for a good souvlaki. One look at the menu told me it was a Lebanese restaurant. Ordered what would be called shish taouk but they called it chicken tikka. Chicken was excellent. Rice was dry and under cooked. Salad was good....Lebanese coffee with cardamom was not bad. Baklava was good.More

We headed into Zorba's for a quiet Friday family dinner. We had hummus for the appetizer. It was a perfect blend of tahini, chickpeas and spices. I had the Greek salad with gyro meat. Everything tastes fresh and delicious. This became my favorite Mediterranean restaurant...in San Antonio.More

Gyro meat was dry, tomatoes were green and crunchy, no tzatziki on meat, pita was good, only flavor was the red onions. Mediterranean salad was dry and had to ask for salad dressing, and the meat was dry, thinly sliced, and curled. Tea was weak,...did not seem too fresh. Fries was crisp and warm. Despite the Zorba name, this is mostly Mediterranean with few Greek offerings. Papouli's on Huebner is better choice.More

We had the greek salad with gyro meat, and the eggplant side dish. Everything was excellent! And Carla our waitress was delightful. The cook is Jordanian and the food is a variety of Greek, Lebanese, and Aribic... aka Mediterranean!

I like food in general and this place was pretty good. Gyro was served as a plate not a sandwich style. Still tasty. My wifes greek salad was nothing special. No olives or onions. Somewhat plain. All in all its a good place to try...if your in the area but I wouldnt make a special trip to go back. Small quiet atmosphere was nice. Open table seating.More
