The Gyro Project in Fort Lee. Located in a busy spot near the Washington bridge plaza. Spacious place decorated up to the ceiling for good vibes. I've been here before and the food was good. And now its even better! I would recommend the salmon entre, which is served to your table in real dinnerware and flatware....nice! I will be coming back. :) read more

This was my first time at The Gyro Project (any loc) but as a Greek girl I immediately was SO happy as soon as I walked in! Firstly, they have Greek music playing that you can here before you even open the door. They had my heart right there. Next thing I saw was the small little store of Greek products and packaged food along the wall. From gemista cookies to my favorite chocofreta bars, things were looking very good. We had already had lunch elsewhere, but came here for coffee and dessert. I never really have cold coffee in the winter but I could not pass up a chance to have a freddo espresso again. I was truly so happy I found a place where I could order a proper Greek coffee! So I got the freddo espresso and told my friends to do the same, and we each got a few desserts. The mini bougatsa was delicious (get it warmed up!) and I tried a few bites of the frozen yogurt. Sooo good! On a Thursday afternoon the space was pretty packed! The three of us found an available table after ordering and our coffees and desserts were brought right over. So happy I found a space for a little bit of Greece when I am homesick (I was born and raised in NJ, but still...) and can't wait to come back to try more of their food. read more

The Gyro Project just knows how to do it right. I wish they had a location closer to me! I've eaten here many times and it's always perfection. During my most recent visit we only came in for some coffee and sweets and everything was so good. I loved my shaken espresso which was strong and sweet and the baklava was 10 outta 10. My friend ordered the frozen yogurt with oreo topping and said it was absolutely decadent. They've absolutely nailed the decor and I love the gorgeous pink flowers. They also have a fun store area with authentic greek products and cute merch. Amidst all of the fast casual Greek / bowl options this stands out as one of the best in NJ. Clearly I'm not the only one who feels this way, because at 1 PM on a weekday it's nearly impossible to get a table in their large space. read more

Excellent Greek wraps and bowls. The falafel pita was great. Fries on the inside. The gyro bowl was also really good. Could not finish all of it. Will definitely be going back to try the rotisserie chicken and all of the baked goods. read more

I first tried The Gyro Project at the location by my job in NYC because my coworkers boasted about it so it was only right to try the OG location in Fort Lee. The food was equally as delicious and full of flavor. The prices are pretty normal with the pita being $12.95. The portion size is big and I end up full not finishing all of it yet but I always want to finish it all. I love the french fries too! They're my fav type. The look of this location is way cuter and bigger than the midtown NYC location. They took the aesthetic of Greece with the flowers. It's so spacious! The service was also great just like the other location. Very welcoming and making sure you have a great experience. I'll definitely be back! read more

Feed me gyros and tell me I'm pretty!!! The Gyro Project is a fast casual Greek restaurant in Fort Lee, NJ. I've been coming here for a little over a year to satisfy my cravings. The menu has a large variety of options - appetizers, salads, wraps, build-your-own bowls, pitas, platters, rotisserie chicken, etc. They also have baked goods, coffee, and desserts. A small section of the restaurant has merchandise and imported Greek cooking products for sale. I've tried a little bit of everything on the menu. Some are hits while some are misses. The prices are a little steep and they get higher every year. I will say... everything is freshly prepared and the ingredients are high quality. The portion sizes are also on the generous side, so the price is worth it. These are my absolute favorite menu items: *Bifteki Platter $20.95 (includes three patties, hand-cut fries, Mediterranean salad, tzatziki, and pita bread) - WOW, this has to be my #1 favorite dish here! The bifteki (baked beef patties) were so juicy and tender. They were like giant meatballs seasoned to perfection with herbs (mint, oregano, parsley). I squeezed some lemon and olive oil on top and every bite was HEAVEN. The pita bread was warm and fluffy. I loved how fresh the salad was. *Greek Club Sandwich $19.95 (includes chicken gyro, tomatoes, onions, mozzarella, sauce, and pita bread with hand-cut fries) - What a delicious sandwich! The pita was nice and crispy (similar to a panini). The chicken was smoky and savory. Their hand-cut fries are to die forrr - hot and crunchy! *Frozen Yogurt $6.95-$10.95 - Sometimes I come here JUST to get a cup of froyo. Yes, it's THAT good - the froyo texture is just right. Not too icy and not too watery with a smooth and creamy texture similar to soft serve ice cream. They only have two flavors (vanilla and Greek tart), but they offer specialty toppings. A small cup is more than enough for one person. *Rice Pudding $6.95 - I wish the portion size was bigger because I could eat this nonstop! The pudding is sweet, creamy, and milky with subtle notes of vanilla and cinnamon. Many customers order for pick-up/take-out, but you can also choose to dine in. The interior is stunning and almost makes you forget you're in a fast casual eatery. The hanging light fixtures, flowers, plants, marble tabletops, and wooden furniture transport you to the Mediterranean. The staff is always super welcoming, friendly, and helpful. Everyone greets you with a smile! I'm a creature of habit, so I tend to order the same items once I love them. But there's so many other options here that I just have to try more! My wallet thinks it's worth it :') read more

Fast casual Greek food. Food was fresh and came out quickly. You can order, they give you a number and you pick a seat. They bring the food to you. There is ample seating + sunlight. Overall the food could use more flavor, the lemon potatoes needed a little more salt and maybe garlic + herbs? The rotisserie chicken was on the dry side and could have used less time rolling in heat. The salad was perfect! A fresh, tasty accompaniment to the chicken. Also the spinach + feta "spring rolls" were an interesting idea and super flavorful. But of course, how could anything fried be bad? For dessert we had The OG froyo. Good + sweet and the perfect ending for dinner. I wish the yogurt was a little more tart, it was on the sweeter side, but still delicious. Overal, I'll definitely be back! read more

Delivered order -Food: One Box of Six Sticks Chicken Souvlaki: it comes with more than enough food for three people. Has a lot of pita Bread ( I guess?!) , lemon slices. Six sticks of the most wonderful, fresh & flavorful Chicken cubes. Oh my. I think this is the best grilled chicken I've ever tried in my whole life, really. I also brought a side of lemon potatoes were too juicy and combined perfectly chicken main plate. On the side, you get soft but flavorful Tzatziki Thank You very much for fulfill my cravings today. Today is my day off. And I really appreciate this delicious food. Keep doing a wonderful job. My blessings to all the team. Thank you again. read more

Absolutely delicious! We tried the pork belly platter and the lamb, and both were cooked to perfection--tender, flavorful, and packed with that mouthwatering char. The sides were just as impressive--fresh, vibrant, and the perfect complement to the meats. The location couldn't be better--plenty of parking, beautiful decor that sets the vibe, and music that's top tier. You can tell they put thought into every detail, from the food to the atmosphere. Everything tasted so fresh and well-seasoned, and the service was just as great as the meal. Portion sizes were generous, and the whole experience was an absolute win. We'll definitely be coming back! read more

Great space with many table options and beautiful interior! There were more people coming as time passed and the line was almost never empty! I had heard great things about their frozen yogurt but the food was also delicious. I got the appetizer size falafel which was very filling and the Green Goddess sauce was delicious - so much so I took it home. The OG Fries were nothing I haven't tried before but I appreciated how crispy the fries were even with the soft feta blocks. I got the TGP Classic with original frozen yogurt - you also have the option to have it with vanilla frozen yogurt, which is sweeter and creamier. But the tartness of the frozen yogurt paired deliciously with the smooth olive oil. I was tempted by the Dubai Chocolate so I'll have to try it next time! read more

We ordered for take out on a rainy overcast day and was surprise when I walked into the restaurant for pick up- clean, brightly lit with lots of lights, and all around wonder ambiance! Food is of high quality, portions are generous, and beyond my expectations. I personally ordered "I'll Have The Salmon" platter is so filling, it could easily be two meals. The grilled salmon is cooked perfectly and sides included are delicious! My only suggestion- Some of the potatoe pieces were too large and the flavors wasn't infused into the center. My husband ordered their "Souvlaki Platter"- a chicken entree with a side of falafel add-on. He has a big appetite but unable to finish the meal in one go due to the large portion. He'd order this dish again, very palatable. And talking about what we'd order it again, it is their OG fries loaded with feta cheese! Yum!! Their soft serve is a must try, we ordered their Samoa vanilla soft serve loaded extra crunchy coconut chips, chocolate and caramel drizzles!!! read more

This area is no short of Mediterranean spots and this one did not disappoint. Its sort of a fast food gyro spot however they had a pretty extensive menu. The interior of the Gyro Project was very bright and welcoming. The menu is a little overwhelming so I would look at it ahead of time. There are plenty of options to choose from. I ordered take out and ordered the chicken souvlaki platter served with fries, salad and tzatzik. It was very good. I ate some of it in the car but took the rest home. I've also had delivery and I dont feel it travels well. I think the platters are better fresh when eaten there. Otherwise this is a great greek fast food place with friendly staff eager to answer any questions. read more

I wish I knew to try this sooner. I frequent the shopping strip area but never thought to stop in. I recently placed an order to go and let me just say the greek club chicken sandwich I ordered was probably one of the best if not the best I've had. It comes in a crisp delicious pita bread. The fresh cut oregano fries that come with it made the perfect meal. Big, generous portion. Can't wait to try the rest of their menu. Presentation and packaging was well put together. read more

Stopped in with a few people around 8pm on a Saturday. I ordered the chicken gyro and the Greek fries with fresh feta cheese. The food took a while to come out and it was a bit pricey for what we ordered. They forgot my husband's order entirely which had him sitting and waiting even longer. Once everyone had their food we were all content as everything came out well made. I like this place and it was my second time visiting so it seems consistent. I removed a star for the wait and forgotten order. Decor is very nice and the restrooms were clean. They have lunch specials which may be the best time to take advantage of the good meals at a reduced price. read more

Good but they purposely charge higher prices than listed. A bit sketchy and fraudulent

So many options! And not in a bad way. Usually when there are too many menu items, the food isn't great because there are too many things going on, and they can't focus/perfect a handful of dishes. But thankfully, that wasn't the case here. Stopped in to pick up lunch on a Saturday at around noon. It was busy but not packed. There were so many things I wanted to try, and lots of menu items you don't typically see at similar Greek fast service restaurants like these, like avgolemono soup, and grilled halloumi. We tried those. The soup was okay. They did a good job in wrapping it to go to make sure none of it would spill. The halloumi was inevitably cold after the drive home but still good, so I imagine it would have been great if you ate it fresh at the restaurant. I didn't care for the sour cherry (?) sauce it came with though. They also had pork belly gyro as a protein for the bowls, which I had never seen before but it was delicious! You can also choose lemon potatoes as a side, which was nice. Will definitely have to come back but try dining in next time! read more

Came here on a Friday for lunch. My friend suggested this spot and I been wanting to stop by here for some time so was looking forward to this place. The place is bright and clean. Ordered the pita beef and lamb gyro ($11.95) and it was good. The tzatziki sauce is also good and is more of a pasty texture than watery. They put fries in it which gives a nice and crunchy touch to the meal. Overall I had a good experience. * Parking on premise * Can of coke ($2.25) read more

Ordered the beef gyro and the chicken Avgolemono. The gyro was pretty good. You get thinly sliced beef/lamb meat in a pita with fries. As you can see it's mostly a fries sandwich. The gyro meat slices was lacking. It came with spicy feta sauce which I thought was delicious. The Avgolemono was heavy. The base Really didn't have a lemon flavor to it. But the included slice of lemon made the difference. It should have chicken in it, but I only counted 5 small shredded pieces . read more

Excellent fast casual in North Jersey. I would normally opt for something Asian in the area, but the Gyro Project offers a tasty and healthy alternative. I enjoyed my Aegean bowl with pork belly gyro and appreciated the veggies that came with it. Others in my party appreciated their meals as well. The gyro fries could have been awesome, but they missed the mark here by plopping large slabs of gyro meat on top of french fries, with sauce on the side. Chopped up meat and distributed sauces would have made the dish sing. Oh well. The space is quite nice; bright light and flowers along the ceiling and walls. Service was super friendly and helpful. Recommend. read more

We had an outstanding experience thanks to Stephanie & Michelle at the Gyro Project. From the moment we walked in, they was warm, attentive, and very professional. Their friendly demeanor and genuine hospitality made us feel welcome right away.

They gave us suggestions on what to order for the family & everything was so tasty. You can tell these ladies truly care about providing excellent service and creating a great experience for customers. We will definitely be coming back -- and by the way, it's BYOB! Highly recommended! read more

Poorly managed. I have numerous complaints about this place. They started charged extra fee for sauce which should be part of an order. So I paid extra fee for sauces which were left out from my order . I've come to this place every week at least spending $140-150 per visit including my takeout. I have never complained of minimum 30-35 min waiting. They appeared to serve tables regardless of who puts orders first. I had to wait for my two orders today almost half hours, again while others who came late were served first. I had to go to the cashier and asked about progress of my order. They kept telling me to wait for another 5-10 min. No one is there to supervise orders. When I went in to the store, there were two tables finishing their foods. Most of the tables were served ahead of me while they kept me waiting for my order. So I had to complain about their poor management to a lady who claimed to be a supervisor suddenly. She threatened me with loud and ignorant voice with rude attitude (as to take it or leave it )rather than apology for delay. She sounded absurd and very rude. If you are a business owner, of the store, you have to supervise each employees as to how they treat customers. In order to manage the store properly. read more

Very good gyros and souvlaki. It's also a really nice place to sit and eat. The soups are pretty good as well.

My husband and I decided to give the Gyro Project a try a few Sundays ago since we both love Mediterranean food. You order at the counter, and they bring you the food to your table. We both loved it! Delicious food (good portions), happy ambiance (bright and airy), good price, and friendly service. What more can you ask for? I had the chicken souvlaki bowl with Mediterranean salad and lemon potatoes with tzatziki. A great find. There's free parking in the strip mall. It can get quite full depending on the day and time. read more

got our items to go, overall portions were nice and veggies were all fresh but i wish they gave more meat. the tzatziki sauce here wasnt my favorite and i did wish the harissa was spicier. meat was a little bit dry although the flavor was delicious. my favorite part of the meal was the froyo! its a large space with lots of seating so i may eat in next time to see. read more

I like the aesthetic of this restaurant. It's really welcoming and takes you into what feels like a new world. The food was very tasty and thankfully the staff were helpful in me deciding what to order. Although I understand the restaurant is being culturally respectful naming the food by their culture, I would say I did not know what a lot of things were and maybe it would help with more pictures or having the food out on display to pick. read more

Discovered this place through a Yelp elite event and the food was fresh and high quality that we had to come back less than a week later. Prices are not cheap but based on the quality of the food, it is reasonable. I love the Greek chicken soup, gyro, hand cut fries and lemon potatoes. read more

I came by for the first time and I loved the experience! Very clean aesthetic and the staff were friendly. Vast menu items that I definitely want to try again. Other positives are the price/affordability (especially in Fort Lee) and a big parking lot (also good perk for being in Fort Lee). The gyro alone had me full but I do want to try desserts next time too. I will be back and definitely recommend others to come by! read more

My wife and I came here to get a gyro bowl for lunch and were extremely pleased with the service of all the workers there. We each got a bowl (beef and lamb gyro and salmon) and the workers at each station helped us figure out what meat, toppings, and sauce we'd like. The seasonings (TGP sauce and Spicy Feta) and flavor of each of our bowls were 10/10 so we were full and extremely satisfied with our meal. This is a new location so everything was clean and in great shape. Great job to the owner and employees! read more

Gyro, Geero, Yeero, Hero Heaven! This new Mediterranean food spot has it all. Different meats rotating and looking all juicy and wonderful, but I decided to go for the kill... Bifteki entree. It was an amazing choice to get the bifteki entree here. You get 3 cooked patties of seasoned meat, side Greek salad and Greek fries, along with some slices of pita bread and homemade tzatziki sauce. Not only was this one of the best mediterranean meals I've ever had, but the price was UNDER $20 for it all!!! I did have their housemade peach tea which was quite tasty, but pricey at almost $5. Nontheless, this whole meal was under $25 (w/tax). It not only filled me up with quantity, but the quality and flavors were there... all there! FYI: Plenty of parking as they share with the other businesses in this shopping center, but it will get packed! read more
