Gyro Republic

January 21, 2021

I’ve always loved a good Gyro, so a while back I began making them at home. Costco carries thin-sliced lamb, so I use that and make the Tzatziki sauce with yogurt, Greek seasoning and chopped cucumbers. As good as mine are, I was very happy to find Gyro Republic on Highway 59 in Sugar Land. The owner is from India and he said that his gyros are a combination of beef and lamb. He spent some time in NYC learning from chefs and tasted more than 500 sauces to decide which ones to offer. Republic is a Chipotle-style, build-your-own restaurant. The customer can select a pita (always my choice), rice or salad as the base. If you prefer chicken, they offer that as well. They are open from 11 a.m. until midnight and you can view the menu at www.gyrorepublic.com
