Thin-sliced seasoned meat is stacked on a vertical spit and shaved fresh to order, then wrapped in warm pita with tomatoes, onions, and tzatziki sauce. Alexi's version is known for its balance of spice and savory depth, with meat that stays tender rather than drying out under the heat lamp. The pita is soft enough to hold the filling without tearing, and the sauce cuts through the richness of the meat. This location consistently ranks among San Diego's top gyro destinations for its execution and ingredient quality.
