What happened after Food Paradise?

Gyro City appeared on the Food Paradise episode 'All You Can Meat' (S17E6), an episode focused on restaurants built around large portions of smoked and grilled meat. The restaurant specializes in Greek-style chicken and pork gyro and pita sandwiches, according to a Yelp listing for the business updated in June 2026. Gyro City operates in Boston's Brighton neighborhood at 181 Chestnut Hill Avenue, with a second location in the Fenway neighborhood, according to the same Yelp listing. The same listing, updated June 2026 with more than 200 reviews, described the restaurant's weekday hours as 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM with later weekend hours. The business's own website, gyrocityma.com, checked 2026-09-08, also listed current hours and an online ordering system, though a customer testimonial on the page referenced a review dated 2019.
