    Chicken bowl with tzatziki, lemon potatoes and dolmades
    Susan L.

    I had the chicken bowl with rice, slaw, lemon potatoes, dolmades, tzatziki and pita. It was yummy. The chicken is so flavorful. The lemon potatoes are so tasty. I would've liked it to be even more lemon-y, but it's still good. The tzatziki sauce is so tasty. They have this fried pita chips that are orange in color. It's so good. Gives it some crunch. It was a generous portion, so I had leftovers. Staff are so nice here. There are tables in the back section and also a ledge table with high chairs along the windows. Great place to grab a meal or have froyo.

    Welcome to the neighborhood. The Gyro project is a Mediterranean restaurant. This one is placed right by bus lines and subway lines. Great place to pick up dinner on your way home from work or school. They also have yummy greek frozen yoghurt and soft serve. I got the TGP Classic OG Greek yogurt served with Fancy Peasant EVOO & sea salt. Very refreshing on a humid day. I have had bowls from other locations of this restaurant. But, tonight i just wanted fro yo. This location has nice staff and I am not sure if he is a manager or what but he was super nice and answered some questions I had. The space here is welcoming, bright, spacious and there is a back area to enjoy your meals at. And they also have high chairs I saw which I know some places do not have them. I will be back if not for more frozen yogurt I will get a bowl.

    Greek Caesar with chicken gyro.

    Yes, ladies and gentlemen, there is another fast casual Greek/Mediterranean restaurant on the upper East Side. It's a Greek spin on the Chipotle model. You get on line, order and work your way through. There are also two ordering kiosks. The music is loud and the space is echoic. The staff are very nice and aim to please. The ducks aren't quite in a row yet. My wife loves the food here. She has gotten a bowl with chicken kebabs both times. I ordered a Greek Caesar salad with chicken gyro. It was pretty good, but heavily salted. We ate in. The space is charmless. It's better than Chopt. I prefer Yia-Yia's and Soom-Soom. This restaurant is my wife's favorite of the four. 3.5 stars. You're better off doing takeout.

    This location just opened up as I usually go to the midtown location. The quality and taste of gyro project is excellent and the staff is always helpful. I ordered the beef and lamb gyro bowl with rice. You get a lot of food in your order so you always leave feeling full. The bowl normally comes with lettuce but this location didn't offer me lettuce which was disappointing but maybe the employee didn't know as this spot just opened up. Overall I would return for another bowl.

    We just returned from a trip and just so happened to find ourselves nearby--and we found our choice was rewarded well. Specifically, I got the "I'll Have The Salmon," which I've previously been meaning to try out, alongside one of their teas. It did not disappoint--the levity and freshness of the Mediterranean salad, complements the more relatively dense lemon potatoes and gigante beans in the dish. The salmon itself was also well cooked, though the skin was a bit soggy; considering the components of the dish though, this wasn't much of a problem overall. On the side, I got some additional baba ganoush, which also complemented the flavors well; my server, Nate, really hooked us up with a good amount of the stuff that it was able to last me two servings. This is definitely a good place to stop by for a nice bite, particularly if Mediterranean is your style--thanks to him, Trevon, Kayla and Jiji for the good eats!

It's the kind of place where you can sit and relax without feeling cramped or stuffy. I ordered the beef tripe noodle soup (non-spicy). The tripe was really tender and well braised, and although the broth looked light, it had a subtle sweetness and plenty of flavor. It wasn't heavy or overly rich, and the whole bowl was just really comforting. The Wan Za Noodles were probably my favorite. I haven't really seen this style at other places before. It's a mixed noodle dish with minced meat, greens, and beans that you mix together yourself. Every bite had a different combination of flavors, and the sauce was just right--not too dry and not greasy. Overall, I really liked how satisfying everything felt without being heavy. Nothing was overly oily, salty, or rich. It's the perfect spot for when you want a good, comforting meal without making it feel like a big production.

Fer brings the fire in all the best ways possible. The Dan Dan noodles with the supreme beef on mild spice was perfect. It still made me sweat but in a good way. The Shishito peppers were a good balance and so tasty. The place itself is bright and sleek. Our service was great as they gave us enough time to catch up before taking our order. We weren't rushed or anything but well taken care of.

As it was my boyfriend and I's first time trying Turkish food, they helped explain some of the dishes to us. We got their appetizer spread, their lamacun, and their manti. Everything was phenomenal, but I highly recommend their appetizer spread and their lamacun. I loved the spread as you got the chance to try multiple different dips and it was a huge portion. Their lamacun was also the first I've ever had and it made me think: "Why haven't I had this before?" It was so good. Will definitely be coming back.

The atmosphere is comfortable without feeling crowded, making it easy to settle in and enjoy the meal. The food was excellent from start to finish. The sigar borek were perfectly crispy, cheesy, and just the right amount of salty. The lamb beyti kebab was packed with flavor, and the accompanying sauces really elevated the dish. We also had the manti, Turkish dumplings that were well-seasoned and incredibly satisfying. Portions were generous across the board, and everything tasted fresh and high quality. It's the kind of place that leaves you looking forward to your next visit.

Our server was polite, though I wish they checked in on us a bit more--but it didn't take away from the overall atmosphere. We ordered the clams with white sauce from the specials--absolutely on point, and the toasted bread gave it an extra kick. We also tried the lobster roll, which was a bit pricey, but still very good. The Branzino we had was also fresh and delicious. Overall, it was a great night out with a couple of drinks. Definitely a spot I'd come back to.

We got a few things and felt like they were mostly just ok. Not bad! But not the best we have ever had. The French toast was covered with a healthy amount of whipped cream. Sweet but on the denser side - not very airy. The burrata was nice. My friend seemed to like it a lot especially with the red wine reduction. I think it was fine. The lobster roll was also fine. The lobster pieces seemed to be on the tougher side. Overall, convenient and nice spot for brunch if you're in the area. I wouldn't go out of my way to try it, but the service is nice and relatively quick at least when we were here. You can opt to sit in our outside.
