  Gyro Joint is located in Union City, New Jersey; preparing lamb, chicken, and falafel plates and gyros. Gyro is a popular fast food in Athens and New York and Chicago.
  
  Gyro means “Turn” in the Greek language. So grilling a vertical spit of stacked meat and slicing it off as it cooks was developed firstly in Turkey, Bursa. After World War 2, with the population exchange between Turkey and Greece doner kebab was present as “Gyro” in Athens. So we can easily say that Gyro is the Greek Name for Doner Kebab. (“Doner” also means “Turning” in the Turkish language.)
  
  More than a restaurant, Gyro Joint is a “To go” gyro buffet, better for pick-ups and outside orders. There is no waiter around at all. Their lamb meat (from minced meat) tastes good. But their marinated chicken meat is better. The yellow rice, the meat, white and hot sauce is a whole meal. And they also have chicken wings as appetizers. Hummus, Tzatziki, White Sauce, and Grape Leaves are side orders.
  
  The gyro platters look like famous The Halal Guys platters, however, our editors noted that it tastes better than The Halal Guys. So if you need protein, carbohydrates, and glucose all at the same time, Gyro Joint is a cheap and good option to pick up or for outside orders.

  Tonight me and my hubby ordered uber eats from this restaurant and we weren’t disappointed. I had a salad which was a good size portion. I saved half of it for my tomorrow’s lunch since i couldn’t finish it. The chicken was tender and there was a good amount of avocado in the salad. My husband had a gyro and he enjoyed it as well. This place deserves 5 star review, no doubt. We will be back soon!

  We wanted to celebrate getting our second vaccine dose and what better way to celebrate than with a bunch of carbs? I thought of gyros because I had just been watching Joshua Weissman on YouTube make them, so naturally I developed a sudden craving. I also had this place bookmarkedn already, so it was the perfect time to try it! We ordered via Seamless and it came on time.
  
  I had the lamb gyro and added fries. The portion was huge and it wasn't just stuffed with lettuce but it had a lot of meat in it. For gyros, you have the option of picking white sauce or tzatziki. I chose tzatziki but after trying the white sauce on hubby's lamb platter, I wish I had gotten that. It's kind of like the white sauce that comes with Halal Guys (although he said he preferred the tzatziki). The fries were too soggy and oily for me but it was better than no fries. He had a large lamb platter which was huge. We had leftovers for the next day. It was weird though because for his, he wasn't allowed to pick the sauce. Also if you wanted to add hot sauce, it would cost extra. I've never heard of hot sauce costing extra but I can always just add my own. Not a deal breaker for me.
  
  Can't wait to order again!

  Just got a Rice bowl, gyro, and wings for take out and it was absolutely excellent. The chicken and beef were both great, and seasoned perfectly. It's little spicy, so if you don't like spice, hold the hot sauce. The wings were the big surprise. Seriously the best wings I have had in area. I didn't expect that and it was a great surprise. Will be back many times.
