“Tarboosh is such an amazing looking restaurant with such a great atmosphere. Every meal is freshly made and you could tell with every bite. You can tell the pride taken to make each and every plate. 100% my family and mine favorite restaurant to eat from that now it’s our Saturday routine.“
“The mac and cheese was pretty good here, and the portion size was quite large considering this was a $5 side. Ate here pretty late at night, but the food came out very quickly. Shoutout to Hadisha (server), who provided exceptional service, very fast and great energy. The place was crowded even then, lively and a retro 80s vibe. Perfect place to take your friend after a breakup so he can eat his feelings. Only complaint is that the mac and cheese sauce was a little watery (enough that this is really more of a 4.5/5 than a 5/5) (maybe because they usually add fried chicken to it that soaks up excess moisture?), so be aware of that if you favor gloppy mac and cheese.“
“Awesome food, very authentic. Our server was very friendly and professional. We had a great time. Favorite dishes were baba ghanouj, hummus with meat and the cauliflower steak. Red wine was so good. We sat near a sunny window and there was fairuz music so the atmosphere was perfect for a lebanese.Kid-friendliness: They have high chairs. My toddler liked the food.“
“Hi all! Yesterday we ordered three lagmans to take with us and were absolutely delighted!!! I've definitely never tried this before! It was truly amazing!!! The portions are large and I thought about not eating it all at once, but I couldn’t stop myself? Very nice service. We were treated to tea, and they also close at 9, but they waited for us for half an hour, thank you very much for that!? I’ll definitely be back ?“
“Great experience at this iconic Dave's location. The lines can get pretty long, but the workers kept everything moving efficiently. The sliders are also quite reasonably priced. Everything was delicious. A must visit if you are in the area.“
“i’m from philadelphia and i frequent brooklyn a lot. this place is always on the list for dinner! i get the lemongrass fried rice with fresh grilled salmon, and it is amazing! by far the best thai restaurant i’ve EVER been to. some nights i dream of the food ����“
“Great food from a vegan business run by vegans. The "chicken legs" are amazing and my daughter said the mac n cheese was the best she has ever tasted. Super friendly and enthusiastic staff. Whilst primarily a take-out there is a small seating area for those wanting to eat in. Highly recommended.“
“Great beef chapli kebabs! I went with the platter, definitely recommend. Not a fan of them pouring the sauces on top of the kebabs and rice so I suggest getting those on the side. Also, heads up, their chicken shawarma is ginormous! Great stuff for sure.“
“Went here to celebrate my birthday yesterday and the place was busy! They were a little delayed on our table for our reservation but the maitre d went above and beyond to make sure our party of 8 enjoyed the experience despite the wait! We were offered wine on the house, a complimentary birthday shot of tequila, as well as another round for the table! The vibe at this place was beyond expectations. Our group’s ages ranged from 39-57 and not a single person was disappointed. We did the prefixed menu which was so much food. We left with several containers to take home!Overall, I highly recommend this place and hope to come back again soon!!“
“We have had our private event at this lovely restaurant. we used the main dining room area for a party of 46 of us. The menu was excellent with a great variety of meats and chickens and seafood, along with some vegetarian items. The staff has made us very comfortable and brought each cocktail and meal on time. The space is excellent for private events and small gatherings. Entire office loved everything.“
“Sloppy and yummy Mexican tacos. So so so good! The taste was great, so flavourful. The soup next to it was perfect. I would highly recommend this place. Price was a little steep for my understanding but maybe that’s just the area. Friendly staff, cute atmosphere and great taste. What a dinner! Be prepared to get your hands dirty!“
“we decided to give a chance to this halal Taco and gyro, and we are glad we did. We ordered 4 beef tacos and a side of seasoned fries. We all agree these tacos are better then Taco bell hands down. The beef was deliciously seasoned with a generous amount of topping and reasonably priced. The fries were a large portion and very well seasoned and perfect amount of salt. I suggest ordering a side of cheese dipping sauce it would pair beautifully, we'll get that next time. The menu has a lot to offer, we are excited to try other items and we'll be back soon!“
“Ok- this was heaven! I was just walking down Bloomfield ave and walked into this cute place . I had the falafel pita- it was sooo good I had two!!! The food is amazing and the people and owner are friendly. Recommend it to everyone and I will be back! Made my day! Thank you!“
“Came here on a Saturday night for a friend's birthday dinner. We had 14 people. The food was excellent as were the drinks. Best of all was the service experience. There was a live lounge singer, a festive celebration birthday song, and a photo session with a ring light! The service here was so welcoming, fun, and festive. I'm definitely coming back“
“There’s not a whole lot that’s wrong with Farook’s tbh. I’ll pick him over Halal Guys or Adele any day of the week, given the price and wait time.However, I’m personally a fan of Santa Halal which is the cart next to Farook’s.But, that’s a personal preference. Farook is pretty great too.“
“Julie was sweet, knowledgeable, efficient, and a great professional server. The food was so yummy! We especially loved the spinach rolls, and babaganoush! The shishkabob and dumplings and cabbage rolls were all prepared very well and delicious!“
“My friends and I are visiting from Jamaica. We had the burger deluxe, fish sandwich hero and roast chicken on rice. All were very delicious! The owner is kind and heartwarming. Smelling our food being prepared in front of us as we chatted, was a tantalizing experience.10/10, we're visiting again!“
“Wow! A friend and l stumbled across this place by accident and couldn’t be happier inshallah ! Food is fresh , and feeds the soul. John , at the register served us as if we were coming to dine in his home. 10 out 10!!! High recommend, lm sure you’ll agree!!“
“Service and food was excellent! I got the combo over rice and it had a nice balance of flavors and textures. The meat had a nice spicy flavor that paired well with the creamy white sauce and rice. The vegetables had a nice crunch to them and helps balance out the soft textures of the dish. I would recommend this dish and get it again.“
“Best food we ate in NYC, especially because we can't get it in San Francisco. The $10 price point makes it even more delicious and worth the hour wait in line. Portions are perfect for post-show munchies and you can tell the meat is so fresh. Always ask for extra white sauce!“
“GERMAN DONER KEBAB - AN ENLIGHTENMENT If you're from Berlin, it feels like there's a kebab store on every other corner. So I can recognize and judge a kebab when I see it. Even just leaving Berlin and Brandenburg, the kebab experience changes within Germany. The further you get away from Berlin, the worse the kebabs get. Some time ago in New York, I discovered one or two places trying to make a kebab. Unfortunately, I have not yet been able to find a proper kebab in New York, despite the name kebab. What was being sold was called a kebab, but had very little to do with a kebab and tasted even less like a kebab. All the more enlightenment then... the recommendation of a friend living in Brooklyn. "German Doner Kebab" in Brooklyn. And then the first kebab there since 2018 here in New York. I can't even describe how happy I was. It looked like a kebab, it tasted like a kebab and came pretty close to a kebab from Berlin. Really well made. Incl. tax 12.51 dollars is a bit steep, but still good value for New York. The portion was good and filling. Everything is really fresh and well seasoned. The bread was just as it should be, thin and crispy. This was pretty much the best kebab I've had in a very, very long time (with the exception of one visit to Berlin). I will definitely go back there again. GERMAN DONER KEBAB - EINE ERLEUCHTUNG Wenn man aus Berlin kommt, hat man gefühlt an jeder zweiten Ecke einen Dönerladen. Ich kann also einen Döner erkennen und beurteilen, wenn ich ihn sehe. Allein schon Berlin und Brandenburg verlassend wird das mit dem Döner innerhalb von Deutschland anders. Je weiter man sich von Berlin entfernt, desto schlechter werden die Döner. In New York entdeckte ich schon vor einiger Zeit den einen oder anderen Anbieter mit dem Versuch, einen Döner zu machen. Bisher konnte ich leider in New York trotz Bezeichnung Döner keinen ordentlichen Döner entdecken. Das was da verkauft wurde, heißt zwar Döner, hatte mit Döner aber recht wenig zu tun und schmeckte noch viel weniger nach einem Döner. Um so mehr dann die Erleuchtung... die Empfehlung eines Freundes in Brooklyn lebend. "German Doner Kebab" in Brooklyn. Und dort dann der erste Döner seit 2018 hier in New York. Ich kann gar nicht beschreiben, wie sehr ich mich gefreut hatte. Es sah aus wie ein Döner, es schmeckte wie ein Döner und kam schon recht nah an einen Döner aus Berlin heran. Richtig gut gemacht. Incl. Tax 12,51 Dollar ist zwar sportlich, aber für New York wiederum preiswert. Die Portion ordentlich und sättigend. Wirklich alles frisch und gut gewürzt. Das Brot genau so wie es sein muss, dünn und knusprig. Also das war seit sehr sehr langer Zeit so ziemlich der beste Döner (mit Ausnahme einem Besuch in Berlin), den ich seit langer Zeit gegessen habe. Dahin kehre ich auf alle Fälle wieder zurück. -------------------------------------------------“
“Been coming here for about a year now and man…The combo over rice is amazing, especially when you add the pita bread. This is the best halal food on the island ? Went to other places here, but the quality, quantity, and price do not compete!!! Definitely check this place out if you’re looking for good halal food. This will forever be my favorite spot.“
“Great little place. Food is all homemade and really good. World class Baba ghanoush and their lentil soup, as the kids would say, really hits! This place only has 9 tables and 3 of them are only for 2 people so I wouldn't recommend it for large parties unless you let them know ahead of time. The Baklava is also a stand-out. You definitely have to try this place if you are in the neighborhood!Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access“
“I got the Chicken and Lamb over Rice combo for $7. Yes, 7 dollars flat!!! It was absolutely delicious and a hugee portion for the price and quality. The meat was well seasoned and really tender and juicy. I really loved the lamb and it wasn't gamey at all. The mix of greens you get really freshens things up and adds a nice little crunch. The white sauce is a must. This was probably one of my favorite things I ate on my trip. You get your food really fast too. Sit down at the park nearby and enjoy your meal.Payment is pretty easy, you can Zelle directly to pay or use cash. I don't thinkkk credit was accepted (can't remember).Price, taste, portions, and service... you can't beat it!!“
“We went to this food truck late last night for Halal and it was very tasty! We ordered the chicken over rice and got a very big portion for only $11. The employees were very friendly and got the food out within 5 minutes. We would come back here to order Halal if we are out again in Hoboken.“
“Its great having such an excellent BYOB restaurant in Bay Ridge.The food and service are both excellent and the ambience is very relaxing and tranquil. I found the menu/food choices/selection more than sufficient no matter what I have been in the mood for.“

“I was passing by the neighborhood the other night, and needed to grab some food as I was planning on working late. This restaurant showed up on my yelp search and was highly rated so I decided to pop in and give their food a try. The vibe here is mostly takeout, but they do have a few seats if you choose to sit here and enjoy your meal. Interior is very utilitarian, it's a main ordering desk with a salad station and the kitchen in the back. Cashier was friendly and helped me pick from their various menu options and suggested the chicken kebab. I asked for the Afghan rice with it because I am such a huge fan of fried carrots and raisins. Service was pretty quick, I didn't have to wait too long for my food to get ready and they were generous with the side sauces. I found the food really delicious, the topping of carrots was very well done, and the rice was fluffy without being too heavy or greasy, which I liked. The chicken kebab was perfectly cooked, it was not dry and I like the flavors on it although I do think that it could use a little bit more seasoning. For my taste, I did find the kebab a little bit on the bland side. Salad was good and the sauces complemented the meal very well. The white sauce was creamy without being too heavy and the red sauce was a good consistency and appropriately spicy. If you are in the neighborhood, come through and give this place a shot, they are definitely dishing out some amazing food.“
“I am a chicken girl and can completely without reservation recommend any and all chicken dishes and sandwiches on the menu. I have had them all over and over. Also the French fries and green salad. They are my go to usually twice a week.Believe the listed menu needs to be updated price wise but still the best deals in town. A HuGE plus you have the Richard Tucker (google him) Park right across the street for seating. Linda“
“Got the chicken over rice here and wasn't expecting much but was surprised by the value and taste. The serving was more than enough for two people and the taste was good. He even put in extra sauce and salad for us. No nonsense and definitely would recommend this food truck if you're looking for halal food in SoHo.“
“This place is cozy and has an amazing variety of Mediterranean cuisine. Excellent service!The pita is perfectly soft and goes very well with their homemade hummus and baba ganoush. Every dish is authentic and delicious. From their fresh mint lemonade to their dessert, everything was wonderful. I hope they stay around for a long time because we’ll be eating here more often. Thank you!“
“Holy moly! This place is AMAZING!!!! First time trying and it couldn't have been better! I'm in the middle of eating and had to pause to write this review because of how much we are all enjoying our food! The platters are a very hefty portion and they weren't cheap with the cheese on the fries either! Super friendly as well (I called to ask about something and he was super nice and helpful).“
“Came for the 8pm Saturday dinner, could not recommend more. The food, hospitality, and general environment are simply unmatched. Come hungry, and be prepared to take lots of food home. There’s no better place to experience Bangladeshi food, you truly will be immersed in a cornucopia of flavors and dishes that span everything that they have to offer. Unrivaled experience but be ready for it, dinner lasts 3 hours and is 10 courses minimum. Not for the faint of heart, or spice.“

“These guys are a lost or unknown gem on the island. So many options food wise. On top of that any additions salad wise, everything you want. Legit white and hot sauce top it off. Green is you want it too. Hands down best option for Halal CnR/Lamb/Seekh Kabab on SI. You got a returning customer all day. Catch you soon..“
“Went there with 2 kids who were craving for real asian food after 2 weeks travelling around the US. Thought they would cry of joy upon finding out the place serves Milo Dinosaur, Bandung, pineapple fried rice, roti canai etc. :)) Food was great, very authentic. Warm and efficient service. Well done and thank you.“
“Lokanta just opened up a few months ago. I always walked by, and i decided to give it a try. The restaurant itself has plenty of seating and is well kept. I placed an order for pick up. I went with the mixed grill entree. It was flavorful and tasted charcoal grilled, which I love. The ambiance is alright. It isn't a dimly lighted restaurant but doesn't need to be. I will stop by again and try more of their food.“
“This is my absolute favorite restaurant in New Jersey. The food is always fantastic and no matter what I order I am always delighted with my meal! The service is unmatched. The staff truly cares about your experience. The food is absolutely amazing – everything we tasted melted in other mouths. Servers are also great and always efficient, happy and polite. Can’t wait to return and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to eat in NJ“
“One of the best halal carts in the area. Normally get the mixed over rice with pita bread and before I get there it’s already ready. No matter who’s working it’s always a great meal paired with great conversation with the person making my meal. Highly recommend if you’re ever in the area.“
“Got to be the most flavourful chicken doner I ever had and I am saying this after exploring food through 20+ countries. I tried their doner at 11 in the morning and it was a burst of flavours in my mouth. Great hospitality as they helped me charge my phone as I finish my meal. This review is 5 months late as I visited them in September 2023 but I still remember their taste of doner.“
“Wife and I strolled in here to grab a quick bite….the food was so good we stayed way longer than expected. Most of the dishes here have a slight southeastern Asian influence and it works!! We had a pulled ribeye sandwich with a curry slaw on top that was just put if this world! Followed by a chicken tostada and then 2 empanadas!! My wife and I felt like we were in heaven!!“
“Visited Ali baba restaurant recently, Absolutely Amazing, the warm hospitality is like no other. The food is amazing, made to order with the best quality ingredients. Your dish and every dish is prepared with perfection it's like your eating at your Mom's house. If you're looking to eat like home made food then this your place. Highly recommended, definitely will visit again. Thank you Alibaba.“
“Easily one of my favorite halal carts in the city. Portion size is HUGE and for $8.99 chicken & rice is good. I love that it comes with lettuce tomato & chickpeas too for a nice added touch. Service is so quick and the food is so good. If you’re looking for a good halal cart look no further!“
“Very delicious food! We tried a lot of different dishes including vegan options & totally enjoyed it. The customer service was very amazing. The staff made sure all the food was good & even checked in to make sure the food wasn't too spicy for one of my friends. So sweet! Definitely coming back!“
“The place is so cute, the interior makes you feel like you’re on a little tropical vacation. The food was so good! We got the pad Thai with skirt steak, green curry with duck. The steak was perfectly medium rare and duck was so tender with crispy skin. They have a lot of drink options as well and they were so worth it during happy hour. Highly recommend!“
“The koshary here is really really good (and vegan!), possibly my favorite meal in Jersey City. (it's a large portion of lentils, chickpeas, rice, and noodles mixed together, with multiple sauces to mix in that really make the dish - only available on Saturdays). The five stars are for the koshary, but the falafel is pretty good too - it's covered with coriander seeds that give it a good flavor (though the accompaniments the falafel comes with in the pita or plate are nothing special).“
“If you are ever in Journal square looking for a great vegetarian/Mediterranean placeIn Jersey City...may I suggest you try the falafel! I have had Falafel in NY that doesn't even come close to this melting your mouth goodness! You can order from Uber or go in! Either way it's good!!!“
“I had tried a few different places to get my chicken over rice with salad and hands down this is the best that I have ever ever tasted great price for the amount you get I highly recommend this truck and my co workers also ordered food and everything was great thank you for “
“Great service from a friendly crew. Prices are reasonable for the amount of food. Menu is a bit weird but seems to be highly customiziable, probably a good place to order online so you can see all the options available. Not a ton of seating indoors (2 seats) but there's a few tables outside.“
“So delicious, tasty and flavorful foods. Warm and welcoming environment! The sit down experience is very nice and I like that they offer sparkling water to drink instead of bottled water or tap! Service is very attentive to your needs and they make sure you get refills on your drinks. Can't wait to go back again!“
