The people from Greek were great scholars who aimed to excel in everything they do. The results are quite visible in their food as they are the inventors of olive oil which is beneficial to health. Greeks also made different type of wines from the best quality of grapes fermented in controlled environment.
Today, you can find hundreds of restaurants offering authentic Greek food or popularly termed as Mediterranean cuisine in New York city alone. People wait in line to taste the exotic Greek dishes like saganaki, taramasalata, souvlaki, loukoumades, spanakopita, moussaka, and many more.

When I lived in the QCs years ago, we would come here for lunch every now and then. Recently I was back in the area for business and when I was naming off the lunch options nearby, a colleague chose Uncle Pete's. I was excited as I remembered how good it was years ago. The building looks different as they expanded. You order at the counter and then they call your number. I have never gotten anything other than just a gyro because it is plenty of food (too much really). But oh is it good! I love their gyro's! They are a bit messy but well worth the stop!

Steak fries- 3 out of 5 Gyro Meat- 4 out of 5 Italian Beef Sandwich - negative 14 out of 5 I know, it might sound silly to say, but don't order anything other than the Gyro here. Everything else is pretty tasteless. I added hot sauce, salt and pepper, and dunked it in the au jus like crazy.. still not taste. Was rough, couldn't finish it. I did have their tenderloin a couple times. Not too bad, still, not very flavorful. Steak fries are THICK cut, sometimes too mushy for me. I like my steak fries a little more crisp. (I get it.. they are supposed to be thick and mushy. I am just weird.) The meat in the gyros is inconsistent, I've found. At times it is very flavorful, other times not at all. I heard this place used to be amazing 5-10 years ago, but after the son took over that it has gone down hill.

I have been going to Pete's for well over 20 years and it the best place for my buddies to get a gyro. The staff is always great and serves them up hot and delicious. I've even had a chance to have a gyro at the foot of the Acropolis in Athens and it had nothing on Pete's.

Horrible. Tasteless, greasy and just a bad idea. Mayo and cucumber pieces does not make it tatziki sauce. This place is a bad representation of gyros. Never again will I put my taste buds through this torture.... I'm afraid of what it will do to my stomach now. I'm for Marine and could not muscle through this disaster of a sandwich!

Uncle Pete's is a sandwich place, well known in the QCA for their gyros. I ordered a gyro and my wife had a tenderloin sandwich, both came with fries. Long story short, they were good! Awesome...not exactly. If you are in the area at lunch time, stop by for a good, quick bite to eat.

We were searching for a great gyro place in the QCA and stumbled upon Uncle Pete's. Not only was the food delicious but our order was ready quickly. I highly recommend Uncle Pete's if you're craving a gyro!

Uncle Pete's rules. Lived in the area for 6 years and visited the old and new locations . Both are awesome ! It's the closest thing to good Chicago food as I think Pete and his son who now runs it told me. Owner is almost always working and everyone is attentive to your every need and friendly and service is top notch. There is so much that's good it's hard to pick one thing. People swear by their Gyros but I like their burgers and fries, and I once suggested they carry Pizza Puffs and a week later they had them. I recently re-visited over the holidays the last 2 weeks and paid 5 trips to Uncle Pete's and savored every single bite!

I am new to the Quad Cities and have made it my mission to get more places reviewed on yelp. Seriously city - we are like four years behind the times here. Anyways, on a coworkers recommendation I checked out Uncle Petes. It is A-OK with me. The prices are reasonable and the gyro was delicious. For I think $7 and change you get about 10 lbs of food- good fries, another side, and the gryo. The only comment I will make (and it's a personal preference) they put a lot of sauce on the gyro. ALOT. Oh and I think I read something online that was negative regarding the owner and counter help. I can only report everyone was polite and respectful - the 'to go' small soda that the owner threw in gratis was appreciated. It made the car ride home bearable.

This place was always my go to gyro spot until about a year and a half ago. Something changed, maybe when they moved locations. Gyros are average now and my fries are always over or underdone. I still give a decent rating as I haven't given up total hope.

I'd completely forgotten about Uncle Pete's. My parents got the family takeout from Uncle Pete's for the better part of two decades when we lived in the Quad Cities. With our longtime loyalty in mind, I felt like a traitor the first time I got a gyro somewhere else. And I'll take the Benedict Arnold thing one step further: after trying many more gyros from many different establishments, I can't fall back on Uncle Pete's as my go-to Greek place. The meat seemed overdone more often than not. Prices were always good, though, and the steak fries were excellent. I also got a kick out of watching the family working behind the counter there. As a kid, I wondered how a family could possibly tolerate working together all day. Good on them work for making it work.

My family has been eating here for almost 20 years. Its a family ran restraunt, with the late Pete himself opening and operating the place and now his son Chris runs it. The staff is always friendly, the prices are very reasonable and the food is simply ''awesome''. You can eat in or carry out, either way its a winner. I hope to be eating here for another 20 yrs.

I have missed Uncle Pete's! I just moved back to the QC after five years in FL and I tried every gyro place I could find in FL. They all failed. Uncle Pete's gyros are the best I have ever had! The portions are generous and the prices reasonable.
(5)Chris R.
The best Gyros in the QC. Period. No if ands or butts. I can't find anything close in St. Louis either.

First of all, the food definitely worth the trip. Too bad the manager is unhelpful, unknowledgeable concerning his own credit card service provider, and most of all rude since instead of answering the customer's questions properly he just blames his own ignorance as the customer's fault. How his credit card service provider deals with his customers' cards, he should know, and if he doesn't, there is no need to be an ass about it. There are ways to turn the customer away politely. This just shows that he fails as a manager in Customer Service (Rating: Customer Problem Solving 1/5). Customers shouldn't have to verify how that particular business or others for that matter deal with cards because of some service-wise incompetent and ignorant manager, just to end up finding out that that manager doesn't what he's talking about.. I would return just for the food as long as that unaccommodating manager doesn't pretend to take care of customers (he'd just drive them away). '3 Stars' because of the food obviously, not that manager failing customer service.

Absolutely terrific food. I cannot specifically say how the gyros are, because I don't care for lamb, but they make a chicken breast gyro that is beautifully cooked and well-seasoned. Plus they have a great assortment of anything else you would ever want at a proper kebab shop. Best fries I've had in a long time. Definitely recommend it as the best in the QC.
