    Jerk chicken on the side in a platter
    Kevin D.

    During my visit, I experience good customer service; an employee is kind and helpful with navigating the menu. For the most part, I opt for Vegan options. Being hungry, looking for a high protein lunch in the area, I buy the gyro with lamb inside and jerk chicken on the side. The lamb bits are on the drier side overall though the side carrying seasoning of the bits contains the stronger flavor. I prefer juicier softer lamb with light herbal seasoning and dashes of olive oil with lemon spritz. The jerk chicken is tasty, somewhat juicy, with a light though detectable seasoning. The wrapping is on the drier side though the salad mixture adds moisture to the meal overall aside from any oil. The syrup-y sauce does not seem necessary with the meal. There is seating for about 12 people. Chill vibes. The establishment accepts different forms of payment.

    I ordered this from DoorDash. I cant put into words how good this was. Definitely feel lucky to have found this place. Generous portions would be putting it likely. And they're NOT stingy with the proteins. Very fresh tasting. I highly recommend!! Nice work OMGyro!!

    Rice platter with lamb and jerk chicken. Sauces and cucumber on top.

    Found them while scrolling IG and decided to go check them out. They did not disappoint! The service was great. Staff were very helpful and friendly. I'm sure they could see it was our first time there. The food was fresh. The presentation was beautiful. Fast and efficient plus you do get a lot for your money. We had rice platters with both lamb and jerk chicken with the sauces. I tried their "OMG" sauce and it was great. Definitely recommend and will be going back again. They do open late nights as well.

    Regular chicken and white sauce

    OMG YUM! I ordered the jerk chicken rice platter with tomatoes, lettuce, onion, OMG sauce and pickles. First of all this is a huge portion of food! I ate it for lunch and dinner and there's enough left over for a late night snack or light lunch tomorrow. My husband got the regular chicken rice platter with white sauce; even HE had leftovers and he has a big appetite. The bag with the food was sooo heavy. The jerk chicken wasn't spicy. In fact there was a sweet and almost cinnamon backnote. It was outrageously delicious though. OMG, try it!

    Came for a quick bite after grocery shopping. Very small interior with max 5 tables (only 3 parties can sit comfortably). Service was good as the cashier gave insightful suggestions for our first time ordering. I had the original chicken gyro (8.5/10) and sweet tea, the gyro portion was very generous. I ended up having to take some chicken off and save for later (no complaints on the size!!). Would certainly come back when I'm in the mood for halal

    Before I wrote this update, I reread my earlier review. Everything in my initial review remains…read morethe same, except one. The hummus is no longer a standard served to every table without cost. They still serve the pita and olives, but hummus is now an extra. You can thank Trump for that extra cost as per the response to our inquiry. We've now dined here several more times. It's a favorite, as it's consistently excellent. Our most recent meal was an order of hummus, which is ample for 2-4 people, the beet salad and the special crab cake appetizer, which was better than any I've had all year. Seriously exquisite. While we've sampled many of the menus main courses, all of which we have enjoyed, we went with two orders of our favorite, the tiger prawns, as they were said to be extra, extra large this evening. Served with tasty sautéed spinach and fries, which we were graciously permitted to substitute for the lemon potatoes. The tiger prawns are beyond great. Simply delicious and must be experienced. Better than lobster and rival any type of superior crab or any shellfish. Call ahead to be sure they have them when you plan to dine. This place is not to be missed.

    Walking into EVOO & Lemon at 645pm on a Saturday night and seeing exactly one other table occupied…read moregave us momentary pause. Despite the moderately upscale ambiance and clean, contemporary aesthetic, the emptiness made us wonder: did we miss a memo? Was there a sudden local embargo on Mediterranean food? Luckily, the dining room eventually filled up, saving us from eating our dinner in a complete echo chamber. My dining companion and I started off with the Hummus appetizer ($11) served with a modest side of toasted pita. It was tasty and definitely hit the spot. We both decided to keep things light and ordered salads with a side of grilled salmon. I went with the Marouli salad ($16) -- crisp romaine lettuce, dill, and scallions with a lemon-olive oil dressing -- and my companion chose the Greek Village salad ($19), a shepherd-style salad with cucumbers, tomatoes, red onions, Holland peppers, feta cheese, olives, and Greek dressing. Both were fresh, well-prepared, and hit the mark. The salmon was also delicious, which is a good thing, because it came with an $18 upcharge that was not listed on the printed menu. For dessert, we ordered the baklava ($13), three pieces of an already intensely sweet treat that had apparently been subjected to an excessive dusting of powdered sugar. As for the service, our server and the food runners were competent but not overly friendly towards us or other diners. I also noticed that the staff tended to take care of tables out of order in which they were seated.. resulting in diners who arrived after us being served before us. Overall, it's a perfectly fine 3-star experience. I'd gladly go back if someone else was picking the spot, but if I'm the one in charge of dinner plans, I'll probably cast my net elsewhere in the area. PRO TIP #1: Bring a bottle of wine or beer from home or stop at the Wine Shop liquor store located on the opposite corner of the intersection of Main Street and Millburn Avenue for some adult beverages to enjoy with your meal. EVOO & Lemon is a BYOB establishment and does not serve alcohol. PRO TIP #2: EVOO & Lemon does not have a private parking lot, but there is plenty of on-street parking and municipal lots nearby. Use the mPay2Park app for the pay-by-plate meters ($0.50 per hour). Meters operate Monday through Saturday from 8am to 7pm; all street meters are free after 7 pm and all day Sunday. If the street is full, the Essex Street parking deck (24 Lackawanna Place) is a reliable backup.

    Edamame Crunch is my JAM! I recently discovered it and Just Salad last week, when I brought home…read moredinner for my husband and me. I picked up takeout dinner on my way home after work. I installed the JS app and placed my order ahead of time that way. I got the Edamame Crunch warm bowl for me. He wanted the Tokyo Super greens with tofu and a PB smoothie. This Sunday, my husband and I had lunch at the JS location in Livingston. It's nice inside! The building looks small from the outside, but it feels much roomier when you go inside. Lots of seating, toddler friendly with high chairs. Like the DQ and Twisted Tulip, there are also outdoor tables for when the weather is nice. The guy who took my order and made our salads was friendly and polite. JS promotes sustainability also, which we like and try to live by. Utensils are compostable, and JS does this reusable bowl option when ordering takeout/to-go (didn't try this yet)... We're fans and would recommend Just Salad.

    I like the food here and have been coming very regularly since it opened. Probably 2-3 times a…read moremonth at minimum. The staff is generally nice enough. Not an enthusiastically happy bunch but not at all rude. Most of my complaints are likely related to management, as staff generally require training and support to be above average. My comparisons here are to Chopt, where I get elite status by March or April every year. -They forget to add the included bread at least 75% of the time. -The crispy chicken is like 1990's frozen nuggets. -The bowls for salads are shallow, small, and never close to full. -The wraps are fairly small. -Dressing amounts vary from just right to way too much. -My order is never ready on time. I've learned to order way in advance. -Drive through is great, but no waiting area or queue management (ie. "pull over there and we'll bring it out") for people who they need significant time to prepare orders for, so everyone sits in line. -Seemingly zero ventilation. It smells like you're eating in the kitchen. Very strong smorgasbord of food odors, if that bothers you. -Rewards system is ULTRA stingy about earning a free bowl (you get a raffle reward with each order and have to collect eight stamps for a free salad, but the stamps expire before you could ever possibly collect eight unless, I assume, you come nearly every day). Those are my complaints after years of eating there. On the positive side, and the reason I keep coming back: -The food is fresh. The non-fried chicken is delicious. -It's in a great location for a lot of people at the corner of Eisenhower and Route 10. -Plenty of options, including bowls. My wife likes the soup. -Drive through. -Rewards system usually gives a free snack/sweet or canned seltzer for next visit. Overall, I'm happy to eat here despite the prices not really reflecting the smaller portions. It's slightly cheaper than Chopt, but I would likely only eat at Chopt if it were closer to my house. I'll keep coming but after I received a very small salad yesterday (still delicious) and they forgot my bread again yesterday, I decided to write this, hoping someone sees it. Right now, this location has a captive market but it's a nearby quality competitor away from losing a customer.
