  I ordered a bowl and a gyro pita. The bowl was actually really good. The portion was big enough to feed two people, especially since I added two different proteins (gyro and chicken). Everything in the bowl tasted fresh and flavorful. Unfortunately, the gyro on pita was one of the worst I’ve had. I added fries to it, but about 3/4 of the filling was just french fries, and I was struggling to even find the meat. On top of that, it was very dry and barely had any sauce. Almost every bite felt dry and disappointing. I really had high hopes but it was not a pleasent experience.

  I was excited to try after going to the location in Fort Lee. I ordered the Halloumi fries and they were really bad, considering they were $12. Instead of 6 fries coming out, 3 came out and then little bites were the rest of the plate (fries that were broken and like crunchy pieces). The Spanikipota Spring Rolls were also cold, instead of warm. I do not think these are supposed to be served cold. The worst part was that when we brought the Halloumi fries back and asked for another, they didn’t even apologize, they just brought us back another one. No problem bringing back another one, we appreciate it, but at least an apology instead of just taking my the playe back and bringing a new one with no apology or accountability .Also, well trying to order on the screen, the 20% off code did not work even though it said it expired in June. I almost never leave reviews, but this was just a bad experience and I think the owners should be aware and address these issues.

  Absolutely loved my experience at The Gyro Project! From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels welcoming, modern, and full of energy—it’s the kind of place you instantly feel comfortable in, whether you’re stopping by for a quick bite or staying to enjoy your meal. The food was outstanding. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and made with care. The gyro was perfectly seasoned and juicy, and you can really tell they use quality ingredients. Every bite had that authentic, satisfying flavor that keeps you wanting more. What really made the experience stand out, though, was the staff. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and genuinely seemed to enjoy what they do. The service was quick without feeling rushed, and they made sure everything was just right. Overall, The Gyro Project is a great spot for delicious food, great vibes, and excellent service. Definitely a place I’ll be coming back to—and recommending to everyone I know!

  I liked this place, bright, clean, very crowded. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The food, not so great. I make it a habit, when I go to a new place, to order several different options. I actually ended up ordering several of the appetizers, and a deconstructed gyro. I really just wanted the meat, the sauce, and the pita bread. I saw there was an option to order just the meat so I ordered the gyro meat, and the chicken souvlaki. I got a double order of the gyro meat, and I was a little disappointed with the amount that they gave me. I suppose if I was just making the regular small gyro, it would have been plenty of meat. But for a double order, not so much. It was a little dry but basically tasted like you would expect. So nothing bad. What I was extremely disappointed with was the appetizers. In the front case, there were cheese pies and other options. I love Tiropita, so I bought two. When I got them home, and opened the box, the smell was awful. They smelled like they had been fried, not baked, in very very old oil. It was all I could do to get past the smell and taste them. They were extremely bland, not what I was expecting. I also ordered the falafel, the spinach rolls, they look like egg rolls, and both cheese appetizers, the cheese sticks, and the one that came with hot honey. That one with hot honey was very good, but everything else just didn't hit the mark. Everything would spinach(and the falafel too) had way too much dill in it, as well as the tzatziki sauce. I did have the baba ganoush as well, and it was okay, but I felt like everything I ate tasted like dill, they put way too much of it in everything. I may go back another day so I can try things that are possibly made to order. I am guessing that they made a lot of things ahead of time to accommodate the large crowds that they knew would be coming in since they had newly opened. I also think that they were highly overpriced. Have to say, I would rather go across the street to the Greek village. Everything is extremely fresh and good portions and delicious. But I will give the gyro project another try to be fair.
