## Story

Boise, ID. - Gyro Shack announced today they will be expanding their presence in the Albuquerque, NM and Tucson, AZ markets. Gyro Shack will share their unique quick-service menu offerings of gyros, salads and rice bowls soon as construction has commenced on two new locations, a franchise location in Albuquerque, NM at 4201 San Mateo Blvd NE and another corporate location in Tucson, AZ at 1610 E Tucson Marketplace. Both sites are in partnership with modular steel builder, RJ Russo, located in Phoenix, AZ.

Arizona and New Mexico were specifically chosen by Gyro Shack as they are underserved in the gyro segment. Gyro Shack currently has a single location in each market at 2100 Eubank Blvd NE, Albuquerque and 5775 E Broadway, Tucson. “We hope to continue and win the hearts of locals and snowbirds in these areas by filling the void of gyros in the market,” said Seth Brink, President of Gyro Shack.

Founded by the Zaharioudakis family in Boise, Gyro Shack has a fast, affordable option for delicious Greek food.

Gyro offerings range from the traditional to the extraordinary, such as the BLT and the Spicy Bacon Avocado. Vegetarian lovers of Mediterranean fare will also find plenty to tempt their palates, including a Falafel gyro, Greek salad, rice bowls and hummus and pita. The house made tzatziki and spicy green sauces are a delicious way to top off any order to perfection.
