Alaturco Gyro Mediterranean Restaurant

It’s hard to find truly high-quality Mediterranean food in Ballston Spa, but Alaturco Gyro absolutely delivers. The Lamb Gyro was incredible perfectly seasoned, tender, and full of flavor. The fries were fresh and crispy. The restaurant is very clean, with a warm and welcoming family atmosphere. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the portions are generous for the price. And the baklava… it was fresh, perfectly sweet, and beautifully crispy on the outside with soft, rich layers inside. You can really taste the quality. Highly recommend the Chicken Gyro, Stuffed Grape Leaves, and definitely don’t skip the baklava. One of the best Mediterranean restaurants in Saratoga County! Best Chocolate Baklava I will definitely be back.

Small, independently owned halal restaurant. Stopped in for lunch takeout, and so glad I did! Now I've got lunch tomorrow too, because the portions are generous. Very friendly service, fast and accurate. Lamb was succulent and moist. No dry meat here! I got the rice bowl with salad, stuffed grape leaf, meat and pita. Pita itself was nothing special, but everything else was great! And the baklava was some of the best I've ever had. Definitely worth the price, and the calories! Wish I lived closer...I'd be a regular. Thanks for a wonderful meal (or two!).

kind and pleasant staff. Food prepared with love, tried many things and liked everything very much. This is a place where you want to come back. Thank you for your service.

OMG! What a hidden gem of a restaurant! I went today and got the chicken gyro platter. It was phenomenal. The chicken was moist and flavorful; the rice was well seasoned and perfectly textured and pita and sides (lettuce, tomato, onion small grape leaf roll) were all fresh and delicious. Taziki sauce was perfect. I also tried the stuffed peppers, which were delicious, and the baklava. Oh, the baklava! Worth a trip there just for that. I will be back! Awesome place!!!

Authentic Turkish food made my fantastic people. I spent much time in Turkey as a military member. Each time I get food here it brings me right back. Rauf and his wonderful wife are fantastic people. If you haven't been here you need to.
