This is my regular place to go for lunch at work. The Falafel pita with baba ghanoush is my go to Vegan option there. Wish there was a wider selection of vegan proteins. The staff is friendly, and they always have some music playing. The service is fast too, and it's never a long wait. I can highly recommend this place.
This place is located adjacent to Penn Station Newark, right across the street, and can be accessed through an above ground gateway (so you are completely under cover for the entire journey). So, the location is prime if you are in need of waiting for a train. There are seating areas in the restaurant ... as well as a lobby area just a few feet away. And it is relatively quiet compared to the hustle and bustle of the train station.

After Indian, Mediterranean is my second favorite cuisine.
What a crazy traffic it was… it actually took me 65 minutes to reach there. And of course, finding parking right in front of Penn Station? I guess I can find God more easily than a parking spot there…
I ended up keeping my car on standby — luckily, the guard at the door didn’t mind. I originally planned to dine in, but the parking situation made me pack my food instead.

The Gyro Project is a vibrant and welcoming restaurant located in the Gateway Center, offering healthy and savory options at reasonable prices. The menu features a variety of meals, including Gyro bowls, rice with greens, baba ganoush, and chicken, all prepared fresh and in generous portions. The Tzatziki Dip is highly praised as the best, and customers often enjoy purchasing pita chips to snack on later. The restaurant has a quaint cafe look and a friendly, accommodating staff. It operates like a Greek version of Chipotle or Qdoba, allowing customers to customize their meals by choosing proteins, veggies, and sauces. Many visitors appreciate the quick service, helpful staff, and the good quality of food, making it a popular spot for lunch or a quick meal before events. The location is convenient, close to Newark's Double Tree Penn Station, and the restaurant stays open late enough to satisfy hunger after meetings or outings. Overall, The Gyro Project is appreciated for its fresh, healthy dishes and friendly atmosphere.
