CENTRAL GYRO – Greek
Downtown St Petersburg's Greek counter on Central Avenue, turning out pork, chicken and beef-and-lamb gyros wrapped in warm pita with tzatziki. Chicken and pork kalamaki skewers come singly or on platters; the xoriatiko village salad and a cool cucumber salad round out the lighter end, with fries and baklava either side. The kitchen imports key ingredients from Greece and keeps much of the menu naturally gluten-free. Doors stay open past midnight midweek and until two on weekend nights, making it a late fixture as much as a lunch stop. Diners consistently mention tender meat and generous portions. Straightforward, unfussy Greek.
