Today, halal food reigns supreme in the world of New York street food , but just a few decades ago it was all gyros , souvlaki , and tztatziki. One of the holdovers from those days is Uncle Gussy's. Read more

PureWow

This legendary Greek spot seasons its food with only olive oil , salt, lemon and oregano , so it’s pretty healthy. (Unless you drink a vat of the tzatziki sauce , which we’re seriously tempted to do.) Read more

My husband had the lamb gyro and I had the chicken platter - both Greek and Spicy . It was delish!!!! And order the seasoned fries ! Yummmmm. And I consider myself a foodie and I'm pretty picky.

Serious Eats

Greek food truck with solid souvlaki , friendly service , and homemade Greek specials like pork chops and baklava . Lines can grow long; go early or late to skip the lunch rush.

What's Good Here

There's a reason why there's a line . The flavorful Greek plates here rival many restaurants . Do not be tempted by the fries . They are addictive.

Solid for a cheap lunch . Meats better than usual street near quality. Definitely get feta on there

Lili Baz

Hercules! Comes with rice , gyro meat , fries , and Greek salad ! Recommend hot sauce and tzatziki on top!

Vivek Singh

Very generous meat portions for 8 bucks. Leaves you satiated. One of the best food trucks in the city

Uncle Gussy's

Thinking about #GreekFood but don't want to wait in line , give us a call for pick-up or delivery #51st #ParkAVe (within a 5 block radius from foodtruck for delivery )

Sara Vasquez

Delicious. I was looking for great Greek food with good tzatziki and I found this truck !

Mark DePalma

The chicken rice platter was very tasty. Smoky and tender pieces of chicken , grilled onions , tzatziki sauce , and hot sauce on rice and salad . Only thing negative is the rice is lacking a little...

Andrew Furman

Great spot for a somewhat healthy lunch . Salad is awesome.

Uncle Gussy's

Mom's Tzatziki Sauce , Pork Souvlaki , and our crispy Seasoned Fries ! Simple #GreekFood over at 51st and Park !

Brett Kearon

Souvlaki over rice with feta and the works. The best $6 lunch in midtown Manhattan . Just be sure to get there early as the line gets crazy after 12.

Patrick Gille

Lamb on Greek salad was yum. Maybe too much leafs in salad , not enough of the other veg advertised. But still delicious.

Leigh Quindara

The best gyros ! And ridiculously friendly !! Always a pleasure, and worth the wait.

Michael Dunten

Combo platter with Greek and Spicy sauce . I could eat it everyday. Best food truck in Midtown

Rahul Gupta

Can't go wrong here. I had the chicken platter with tzatziki sauce : brilliant!

Renee F

Deliciousness. Love the Greek salad with lamb . The spicy hit sauce is HOT so I recommend getting that on the side.

Eric Jaffe

Best lunch in the area by far. Fries > greek salad > rice > pita .

Teo Sartori

No seating but the church steps next door make a perfect lunch spot on a sunny day.

Chris Pollone

Greek chicken salad is great. Skip dressing and just add some tzaziki and hot sauce .
