Reviews Summary

Keifer's Restaurant is a beloved local spot praised for its flavorful Mediterranean dishes, especially the gyros and crispy fries. While many rave about the delicious food and friendly service, some reviews mention inconsistencies in portion size and occasional issues with order accuracy or service attentiveness. Despite these criticisms, it remains a popular choice for a satisfying meal in Jackson.

"First time visiting Keifer's, and I'd have to say it's really delicious!

Enjoyed the fries the most, which was a surprise. Nice and crispy, and then the feta cheese sauce was delicious as well. Really enjoyed the classic gyro and it's very nice to eat your meal, inside or outside!"

Elizabeth Lee

"If I could give this a zero, I would. Ordered lunch for our department to have an order of 6 lunches delivered the following day. The order arrived timely; however, the order that was delivered consisted of 5 orders, not 6—called Keifers to report the missing order. I was told to pick it up or request a refund for the missing order. The delivery's purpose was that I could not pick it up. Thank goodness the order was not for a business meeting. Bad, Bad service, customer service, and phone etiquette. Shape up, Keifers, will order from Aladdin's next time."

Maria Tynes

"The gyro is good in taste, but slightly lacking in size.
The cost is $8.99 w/o fries or a drink.

The average gyro in my travels and experience is about $10.00 some with fries and some w/o.

All though, have been larger than this."
