🇬🇷 Is this the BEST gyro in San Antonio?! 👀 I might be a little biased because John happens to be my father-in-law 😂… but John the Greek has been serving San Antonio for decades, and if you haven’t been yet, you’re missing out! From the gyros and homemade Greek favorites to the desserts and their famous salad dressing you can even find at H-E-B , this place is truly a San Antonio gem. The dressing is indeed currently sold at H-E-B. Come support a local, family-owned restaurant, say hi to John, and let me know what you think! So… who has the BEST gyro in San Antonio?! #greekfood #satxfoodie #sanantoniotx #sanantonioeats #supportlocal

Product placement

John the Greek Restaurant: ACTS - it is a restaurant that serves food and drinks. Removing it would change what happens in the video. John the Greek Salad Dressing: ACTS - it is a product sold by the restaurant, and its use is demonstrated. Removing it would change what happens in the video. H-E-B: APPEARS - it is a store where the salad dressing is sold. Removing it would not change what happens in the video.
