Gyro King restaurant opens in Mall at Fairfield Commons

A new Mediterranean restaurant specializing in gyros opened this week in the Mall at Fairfield Commons in Beavercreek.

Gyro King moved into food-court space that previously housed Designer Dogs, which shut down in September 2016 after nine months in business.

Gyro King owner M. Ghiath Al-Edlbi could not be reached this morning, March 16, but when the restaurant was under development in January, the eatery’s founder told this news outlet that he had been interested in opening a restaurant serving Mediterranean cuisine “for some time now.

“When I saw the available space in the food court, I quickly acted to not miss the opportunity.”
