Best gyro I've ever had! I've never had lamb this tender. I went with a group for a mid-week lunch and everyone was very happy with their meals. I had a small greek salad and an original gyro. The table also shared hummus/pita, fries, and baklava (we were hungry!). Everything was amazing, except the hummus was a bit dry. Service was friendly and although it was busy the food came out quick. They have a nice menu with salads, burgers, appetizers, and a large selection of gyros from traditional lamb to chicken, pork, etc. Toppings, pita bread, meat was all very fresh, very flavorful. The restaurant is clean with plenty of seating indoors and a small, shaded patio outside. This has to be the best Greek food I've ever had, and I travel a lot! I can't wait to get back for another lunch... maybe tomorrow.

This is not the most authentic Greek restaurant, but for Mississippi I believe it's the closest I've tasted. The lamb is always fresh, food is cooked to order and they are super friendly. I have had the burger, it's not out of this world but it is good. I usually have the lamb gyro without lettuce and tomatoes. It comes packed with lamb and the Tzatziki is above average, however I think it would help to put it on the side for to-go orders. The warm lamb made the sauce warm and it lost some of its freshness. For the serving size I think the prices are spot on. Their fries are homemade from fresh cut potatoes, I love that! Overall, I definitely recommend this place for a quick friendly taste of Greece in the Ridgeland, MS area they fit the bill. .

Krilakis is one of the better gyros I've had. The one downfall, and this is strictly personal, is that there is SO MUCH FOOD in such a tiny foil package that it's hard to handle the gyro gracefully. Every bite will leave your face covered in tzatziki sauce. Their pita melt is also a good choice for an appetizer. It's loaded with ooey gooey feta and mozzarella cheese. Really, everything I have had is good. The staff is always friendly and the food always comes quickly. They have a nice outdoor seating section that is shaded (which is a huge deal in this Mississippi heat!) and plenty of space inside as well. If you find yourself this particular area of Ridgeland, definitely give Krilakis a shot.

Clearly, this is not run by a Greek family, because nothing is made on-house, or authentic. I got the hummus and pita starter, and they both looked, and tasted, like they were from a grocery store. The pita's were really think and had been toasted so that the edges were almost crisp, and the hummus was so thick, and not whipped at all. I also got the gyro and salad combo. The salad had two olives, and had thinly sliced soggy tomatoes. And it was saturated in dressing, rather than just drizzled and then tossed to get a good coating. And the gyro was just not very flavorful. It was about as bland as the hummus, and tasted more like onions than anything else. I travel every week for work, and absolutely love Greek/Mediterranean food, and eat it probably twice/week while I travel. This was a huge disappointment.

Whenever I want to grab myself a salad, I always choose this place. The meat is perfectly grilled, and their salads are a #1 pick for any meal!
(5)Chris M.
Pretty decent and served the purpose for a quick stop on the way to New Orleans. The lamb gyro was good if unremarkable. There is a write up of the place that talks about the tzatziki sauce being really good. Umm, ok, not really. Couldn't taste it on the gyro as it was so mild. It was a decent overall though and seemed to be fresh. The hummus to me did not taste fresh and wasn't very good. I would not order it again. Decent place though for a quick stop. The staff was very nice and the food came out very fast.
(3)Phil H.
I was very pleased with the food and the service. Great place. Great atmosphere. Great for kids. We will be back. JC Gyros and Hamburgers.
(5)Andrea S.
It was okaaaay. My Salad was way overdressed. Gyro meat was thin and crumbly. I ate all my food, but wished I went to Keifers the whole time. Servers were not in uniform making it difficult to figure out who worked there.

I usually do not like reviewing places on just one visit. However, since I do not live anywhere near here I am going to go ahead and do one. Basically, I found this place via Yelp and it's really good reviews. I went in and ordered the combo that had a Lamb Gyro and a greek salad. The Greek Salad tasted pretty decent and the Lamb Gyro left quite a bit to be desired. The meat tasted almost unseasoned and the sauce they put on it did not have much flavor like I am accustomed to. Also, I asked that they add Feta cheese to the gyro. They charged me $1.50 to do so and put none on there. That really rubbed me the wrong way. I pointed this out to the girl at the front and she got me a small ramekin of it. It was actually some of the strongest feta I had ever tasted. A little too strong actually. Other complaints I had were the fact that there was only 1 other table that had occupants in the place at 7:15 yet the floor was dirty with food and straw wrappers that were on the floor. There is no excuse for that in a slow restaurant. The unsweet tea was also terrible as it tasted like straight up water. They also charged my AMEX for a drink that I never requested as well. The total came to like $16.00. I left very full, but the food was not that great at all. Had the food been priced at about $10.00 I may have felt a little better about it. Sure my company was paying the tab but I spend company money as if it were my own. Another turn off was the place was crawling slow yet my Gyro came out within 1 minute. It was warm which means that everything is precooked and just sitting under a heat lamp or above boiling water or something. Basically it is definitely NOT prepared fresh. Based on my experience, I am giving it 2 stars which is pretty generous. Apparently many folks think they have awesome burgers. The other table that was occupied were eating burgers and they did look pretty good. My advise is to go with one of those because they have to be better than the gyros. If I come back to town I will definitely not be back.

Being that it is only a block from my house, this place is by far the best Greek restaurant in the Jackson area! If you want to be blown away, go ahead and try the Greek Chicken Salad. Also, you can bring your own beer and wine.
(5)David O.
I won't keep this review long. All I have to say is that this is hands down the best Greek food in the Jackson area. It's a small restaurant, good atmosphere, and very reasonably priced. Staff are great too. If you like Greek food and you haven't eaten here, you should plan a visit.
(5)Brandi S.
Great place for lunch or a casual dinner. Order at the counter and choose a seat. They have a patio near a fountain that made for a very peaceful lunch. The staff was friendly and the restaurant was clean and nicely decorated. What sold it for me was the food! The gyro and fries were really good!!! Fresh, perfectly seasoned, and large portions for less than $10 with a drink is a steal. I will certainly be back and maybe even take advantage of the BYOB offer
(5)J O.
The reviews don't lie. This place is my new go to Greek joint. It's also BYOB which is good for the cost conscious. The gyros are great. I prefer the melted feta from Kiefer's but this is much closer to my house. The parking doesn't result in door dings like the poorly laid out lot at Kiefer's. Also, the bum factor is non-existent at Krilakis. The burger is excellent with great bun but will come after your guests who order gyros. I'd prefer all plates to arrive at the same time, otherwise you watch people eat. They have a gyro combo with fries and soft drink which is very reasonable at around $9 before tip. Speaking of fries... They are worth the trip as well. Perfectly cooked and seasoned with sea salt. My wife doesn't care for their veggie gyro with the fries in it though. Overall worth checking out if you haven't and immensely better than Kristo's which is close to the same area.

My son and I stopped in on the way home from Middle of Nowhere Mississippi to wait out rush hour traffic and to stop the pleas of "Daddy, I'm hungry" emanating from the back seat. I'd eaten at Krilakis in the past, when it was located in Byrum, so I was confident that it was as good as I remembered. While everyone raves about the burgers (and trust me, they are as good as their reputation), I was in the mood for Greek. My son is a huge fan of "dip", so I ordered the hummus. And as a cheese lover, I had to order the pita melt. Pita bread, mozzarella and feta? Perfection. For the entree, we chose the mixed gyro. Given a choice, K would have had just chicken, because that is his default food selection if pizza is not an option. The food came out promptly, and the hummus was by far my favorite. It is the perfect consistency, and the seasoning is spot on. Not too salty, with just the right amount of garlicky goodness. The gyro came with a mound of hand cut fries, which K promptly dunked in hummus. While it is not your typical culinary combination, it seemed to work well for him. In short order, the hummus was decimated, and there was a huge dent in the aforementioned mound of fries. The pita melt was hot and cheesy. My only complaint is that the feta didn't come through quite as much as I'd hoped. Mozzarella is a wonderful cheese, but very bland in comparison, so I'd hoped the feta would provide a little more bite. Still, it was good and I would have it again. The gyro was almost an afterthought after making our way through everything else. But what a pleasant afterthought. The pitas are soft and delicious, and the tzatzki creamy and delicious. It's always an added bonus when proportions are done well. Often, gyros are drowning in sauce and it becomes a bit of a mess. In this case, there was just enough to get the flavor in each bite of the grilled chicken and lamb laden pita. Overall, it was a great meal, and some of the best Greek food I've had in the South. I'm sure there are better places out there, and I know for a fact there are much worse. Two things kept me from giving Krilakis five stars: the lamb and chicken were a little dry for my taste, and the decor was a little lacking. Barring the menu and a few odds and ends on the wall, I could have been in Anycuisine USA. Perhaps it's just me, but I like to see a bit more character in local establishments
(4)Missy L.
I disagree wholeheartedly with the other reviews. My lamb gyro was closer to authentic than I've had in a long time. The lamb was chipped or shaved rather than cut in strips. The tzatziki sauce had the tang of greek yogurt with grated (not diced or minced) cucumber.
(5)Ben R.
Delicious gyros and salads, but the burgers are horrible. I have eaten here several times and plan to come back, but I will stick to the gyros. While they are delicious, the burgers, which many have praised, are dry, unwieldy, and tasteless. Possibly one of the worst I have ever had. Sorry y'all.
(2)Nolen G.
I was told I had to go by Krilakis to try the burger. Greek place for a burger? Well, the source of the tip is a highly reliable foodie so I took her advise and rolled in last night and ordered the 2 cheese burger. Feta...mozzarella and about a 1/2# burger. I'm in. Burger came after the appropriate time it takes to cook a 1/2 pound, hand formed patty of raw chuck into a 1/2 pound of perfectly cooked ground goodness. The bun. Oh man, the bun. Ever had that sweet bun at Mugshots? Take that bun and make it 3x better. It is the daddy of sweet buns. Not too sweet, not too big, just right. I asked the owner and he said the buns come from a bakery in Texas. I like Texas. I like these Texas buns. Cheese was great and not overpowering at all. Perfect and I highly recommend it. As for the Greek food....truly the best Hummus and Pita in town that I have had (and I have been to most of them) My wife had a Chicken salad and I am sad I did not get a picture. Large, fresh and the meat was plentiful. Kids got the Pita Melt (awesome) and the Jr. KC..which is a small chicken Gyro without onions. I was hoping we would have leftovers but we mowed it all down. I did not get the fries but they looked great. This burger is SOLIDLY in the top 5 under $10 burgers in town. I will have to go back for another, but I will say, you will NOT be disappointed.
(5)Jesse M.
Wasn't impressed. Sorry but the Gyros were OK but I expected more for a 5 star rated place. Went there for lunch and there was not a crowd, only about 3 other tables. Food was fast and service was good but nothing spectacular. The fries were limp and undercooked and the Gyro was runny. I don't know maybe I caught them on an off day. I felt the gyro was rather flat tasting and didn't have anything really good going on. It wasn't bad at all but it wasn't the best either. I may go back but I am going to explore other options first.
(3)Lauren D.
Where to start? I started eating here with my husband that loves gyros. I was never really a fan of gyros, so I always got the burger. Best burger ever. One day I tried my husbands gyro and it was amazing. I can no longer get a burger because the gyro is just a must have! Service is always great. I highly recommend krilakis!
(5)James B.
My daughter recently started working near here. I was visiting her and yelped to see the restaurants in the area. Krilakis came up and thank you yelp. First, the hummus is very, very good. Next, the burgers are as described in the other reviews. Worth the wait and among the best in Metro. The gyro meat is very good whether on a salad or in a pita. Friendly staff. It is BYOB for some reason but don't let that keep you from going. Go and enjoy.
(4)Michael A.
One of the best burgers I've ever had at any price. The fries were amazing too. My daughter and I had the two cheese burger.
(5)Scott M.
Quite possibly the best burger of my life! The patty was probably an inch thick and cooked perfect! Delicious!! The fries were hand cut and awesome! I WILL be back for another Krilakis burger!!
(5)Sarah C.
The reviews don't lie. Awesome burger. Great salad. Fries were excellent. We are still talking about how much we enjoyed dinner three hours later, which is what prompted this review. Thanks for the great meal.
(5)Matt S.
Krilakis might not look like much from the outside, but the food is outstanding. The gyros, salads and even burgers are great, and service is fast and friendly.
(5)John L.
One of my favorite restaurants in Jackson(okay, Ridgeland, but I'll forgive them). The menu has great choices, but I always get the krilakis gyro. It's superb and unlike other restaurants isn't just a cloan of kiefers. The French fries are great too. AND best of all you can bring your own wine. Only complaint is they use Styrofoam cups and plates for their salads (more of an issue on the salads, but real plates and cups are always much nicer to eat and drink from). It's always clean and the service is usually pretty quick even for a casual restaurant like this.
(5)Dustin T.
surprisingly good greek food for Mississippi. I thoroughly enjoyed the gyro. Can't say enough good things about it.
(5)Matt M.
Since we have moved here this place has been a regular spot. There food is always fresh and made with wonderful favors!! A must visit
(5)Mrs. M. J.
Do yourself a favor and GO! BEST Greek place, by far, I've ever been to. SO. GOOD. Fresh, soft pita bread. Rich, flavorful, perfect hummus. Mozzarella and feta pita? Perfection again. In fact, everything was perfection. My husband got the lamb gyro salad with the most tender lamb he's ever tasted. I got the mozzarella feta burger and every other burger from now on will pale in comparison. The bun is huge and soft and sweet, and there's so much real FLAVOR. Please go.
