“Named one of the top 50 places to eat in North Jersey in 2023, this family-owned establishment, named after the owner’s sister, offers Mediterranean cuisine and much more. I came to this Taste the Top like a Yelp Elite event today thanks to Sarah and her team. Located in Wayne off of Valley Road, Jackie Small is a bright, comfortable, and cozy eatery with 13 two-seater tables open during breakfast and lunch. There was no wait upon entering and being greeted by the staff, Hector. Their menu, inspired by traditional Middle Eastern recipes, is vast, featuring their popular shawarma grain bowl, Greek salad, as well as French toast, avocado toast, grilled cheese, blueberry pancakes, veggie bowls, BLT's, etc. It's first come, first served, as one orders at the counter, has a seat, and they'll deliver your food to your table. I decided on Smalls Scramble consisting of 3 eggs soft-scrambled, Gruyere cheese, roasted tomatoes, truffle home fries, and multi-grain toast. To wash it down, I went for the Mango Supreme smoothie (mango nectar, strawberry, banana, honey, and pineapple). The food was perfect—great portions and very good quality. The smoothie was delicious and refreshing. This place checked all the boxes, which I can recommend.“

“Stop by if you are looking for best place for fresh vegetarian options; they also have many options to make it spicy! Toddler approved too; my kid loved their fresh hummus, pita chips and falafel. Alan who helped us with the order was amazing with the service and recommendations. Must try!“

“Comfortable, casual, but classy atmosphere. The service was very friendly and happy to explain any dishes that we weren't familiar with. The food was amazing! I wish I took more photos. We started with the babaganoush and tablouli salad. My husband had the lamb kebab and I had the chicken kofte. Everything was so flavorful and tender. I have no idea how to spell the dessert we shared, but it was like a non-crunchy creme brulee. SO GOOD, light and refreshing. Highly recommend this place.“

“Wonderful food! Fine dining in a beautiful, elegant atmosphere. We had a special evening with out of town guests; petite filet was perfection! Will definitely dine here again in the future. Perfect for a special occasion with attentive wait staff, well executed cuisine and well appointed decor. Awesome cocktails, extensive wine selection and lovely decor. Thank you for a great experience! Can't say enough good things about this local gem.“

“Alright! Where do i begin?! There were 4 people behind the counter and when i walked in, all four greeted me. The manager greeted at the ordering station and didnt overwhelm me to order my food as this was the first time being there. He asked me if id like any suggestions and we landed on the chicken platter with spicy chickpeas rice and cole slaw. Everything about this bowl was immaculate. The chicken was well seasoned and spiced, the chick peas were tender and savory, and the rice was such a great compliment to the protein. I also ordered their fries because why not!The portion size was generous but not overbearing. They had the mexican coke glass bottles which was a great choice to wash the food down with. I got the brown to top it all off and it was amazing. Chipotle, Qdoba, Halal Guys even have nothing on Juicy Platters. I definitely will be coming back with the family!“

“Doner Point Restaurant is an undisputed champion in the realm of culinary delights, setting a gold standard for doner enthusiasts around the globe. From the moment one steps into the establishment, the ambiance exudes warmth and authenticity, transporting you straight to the heart of culinary tradition. The attention to detail in the decor harmonizes perfectly with the aromatic symphony that fills the air, hinting at the gastronomic journey that awaits. The menu is a testament to the restaurant's dedication to excellence and authenticity. Each dish is a masterpiece, crafted with the freshest ingredients sourced from the finest suppliers. The doner kebab, the crown jewel of their menu, is nothing short of a revelation. The meat, succulent and bursting with flavors, is perfectly seasoned and cooked to a turn, accompanied by fresh, crispy vegetables and wrapped in a delectably light and airy bread that melts in your mouth. The harmony of textures and flavors is a culinary ballet, a testament to the skill and passion that goes into its preparation. But what truly sets Doner Point Restaurant apart is the palpable passion that the staff exhibits. Their knowledge of the menu, attentiveness to customer needs, and genuine warmth make every dining experience feel personal and cherished. The chefs' commitment to preserving the authenticity of their dishes, while also innovating and elevating them, is evident in every bite. Moreover, their sauces - oh, the sauces! - are a secret symphony of flavors, each a closely guarded secret recipe that complements the doner impeccably, adding layers of complexity and delight. Whether you're a fan of the tangy and spicy or the smooth and creamy, the sauces are designed to satisfy every palate. Doner Point Restaurant is not just a dining destination; it's a cultural immersion, a celebration of culinary artistry, and a beacon of gastronomic excellence. It's a place where every visit leaves you with a lingering taste of perfection and an eagerness to return. In a world where the dining experience can often be mundane, Doner Point stands out as a luminary, reminding us of the power of food to enchant and inspire.“

“Shlomo's kindness and generosity is endless! Not only has he offered to participate in a PTO sponsored dine to donate today, but when our school staff ordered lunch to support, he refused payment and insisted the payment be donated to the PTO in full! He gets plenty of love and all is deserved! Thank you Shlomo and Gyro Grill for not only delicious food but for your continued acts of love in the Wayne community!“

“Excellent family friendly atmosphere with delicious food, excellent service and great prices! Take the time to get to know the family running the restaurant and make sure to try the Iskender (gyro with yogurt, tomato sauce and croutons). The filet mignon is top notch quality! Turkish tea is a must throughout your meal. If you want an authentic Turkish experience, you must check out Tadim. This was my first visit but not our last!!!“

“Always great food and a favorite. We've been getting takeout here for years since we moved to the area during the pandemic.The red lentil soup is my favorite and the spanakopita is amazing! We've had most items on the menu, you really can't go wrong. I prefer the Chicken Shih which is grilled and marinated chicken over the Chicken Gyro but they are both good. My husband enjoys the lamb.Because the dinning room isn't open yet and the blinds often closed, I think a lot of folks don't know it's open. It's a hidden gem in Ramsey and right near the train station.“

“Very nice little hole on the wall.Food is prepared as and when ordered, restaurant-like.Though the sitting is limited, the food is delicious.From what I observed, it is family-run, and it is a very nice family.I ordered the kebab platter, which plenty for two people. I didn't order fries, but saw them being placed in a to-go bag, and they look good too. I'll be getting them next time.“

“If fresh authentic homemade pasta is what you crave, this is the place to go. Food is delicious and of high quality. You can taste that everything is authenticly Italian homemade with love and care. It's a limited menu but that is how they can put out such high quality. Prices are not cheap but worth it for the quality and execution. It's a small place with only few tables but we went for lunch and not a problem getting a table. BTW, it's a BYOB“

“Such a great place. The food is simple and always cooked perfectly. We order take out from here often when we don't want to cook but still want something healthy. We finally got a chance to dine in last night and it's very cute inside and also BYOB so don't forget a bottle of wine. Staff was very friendly and food came out quickly!Highly recommend the shepherd salad, liver appetizer, ezme, shish kebab, lamb chops and the mixed grill - it's more than enough for 2 to share! The rice is so good you'll want to eat it on it's own.Vegetarian options: Lots of dips and salad options as well as fish“

“Same owners of Jackie & Sons in South Orange. Delicious, mouth-watering (drool-worthy), fresh food! There’s a bearded guy, that runs a tight ship in here - he and the team are hard workers, fast and efficient, and friendly. Small space with cute decor and a couple tabletops inside to sit and enjoy. For the wintertime chills, I’d love to see some kind of half wall or barrier go up to keep it warm inside when the door is open. All the food is great, but I recommend trying the cheesesteak - so good, it gives the best spot in Philly a run for their money. If you love their shop in SO, you’ll love this one too. Eat, drink, and be merry here!Parking: Free parking lot on site.“

“FINALY after Covid we took some friends to our favored middle eastern restaurant this past Saturday . As usual we were greeted by our first names as we had not been there for three years! we had the combo maza which was great. The muhammara was just right. Our friends had the lamb shish kebab and the shawarma combo. Both plates were huge with two skewers of meet in each! According to them it was the best they ever had. For a change I had the kibbeh in a tray meal with yogurt which brought back memories of childhood when my mother made it. I can't say enough about the quality of the food. The service is the friendliest you will ever experience“
