These burgers were just okay. I found them to be a bit dry and the flavors were not as pronounced as I had hoped.

I'm not a big fan of lamb, but these burgers were surprisingly good. The tzatziki sauce really helped to balance out the flavors.

The tzatziki sauce is the perfect complement to the gyro burgers. It's tangy and creamy, and it really brings out the flavors of the meat.
