Cairo’s Gyros in Tempe, AZ is a family-owned gem serving up mouthwatering Mediterranean food with a unique Cairo’s style twist. From savory gyros to fresh falafel and flavorful shawarma, every bite is…
New, instant favorite. Everything tastes extremely fresh. Highly recommend the Giza's Chicken Shawarma Wrap
Massive portions on main and side

We ordered a Chicken Kebab Plate and Gyro Plate, which were supposed to come with a little salad. Instead they gave us some undesirable red slaw-like stuff. No idea what it was and it tasted bad.
Also paid for 2 Piece Baklava, and they were the tiniest pieces I've ever seen-- nothing like the portion pictured. For $7. And didn't taste good.
Don't recommend this place and won't order again.

Very bland. I ordered no onions and dressing on the side. Received onions all over my salad without even a side of dressing. The hummus is the worst I have ever had and eat middle eastern and greek all the time. The hummus was bland with a bitter taste. The rice bland taste no flavor. The meats average avoid this place.

Smallest portions I've ever seen on any kabob. 2 quarter sized pieces of chicken, 1 small 4 in piece of keftka, and like 5 very small and thin shavings of gyro. Def will not be ordering again. Not worth the money or time.

The Homemade Dolma are amazing! It's the version I grew up eating, so it really hit the spot! The Rice Pudding was also delectable! Some of the best I've ever had. The Fries were a free item and while they arrived a little cold, they were so crispy and really yummy. However the kabab 3-Item Combo Platter I got was a huge disappointment! The hummus, rice, and salad, really good (although the dressing could use more flavor). The beef kabab, the chicken kabab, and the kafta kabab were just down right gross. The beef was all chewy, fatty, and pretty inedible. The chicken was also a bit grisly though it was the best of the three, but really lacking flavor. The kafta had this weird grisly texture that immediately made me spit it out.
The dolmas were so good that I WILL be back for those alone, but I will never touch their kabab items ever again. Maybe I'll try the gyro next time, or maybe it will just be my dolma spot.
