“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.“

“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!“

“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. -------------------------------------------------“
“My sister and her boyfriend introduce me to this fast food restaurant and I have to say I love it ! Though they don’t have many options other than burgers or tenders I think you get what the name of the restaurant provides lol. They do have some sides such as Mac and cheese, coleslaw, seasoned fries/cheese fries, pickles and milkshakes. I tried the Mac and cheese and honestly it lacked that cheesiness you look forward to when eating mac & cheese but aside from that the food is delicious. I usually get the medium level of spice and the one slider (comes with pickles, coleslaw, and signature sauce however you can ask to subtract or put things on the side) seasoned fries and drink meal which is always perfect as the chicken is pretty big. In my opinion medium it’s not very hot so if you have a good tolerance to spicy food I would try maybe a level above that which is “hot”. I’m super excited that they are opening one in my town because I will definitely be coming back ! Definitely recommend.“
“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.“
“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.“
“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!!“
“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!“

“I had the opportunity to try Bosnian food or in other words balkan food. Let me tell the food was freaking amazing!!! The owner was so nice and absolutely awesome to talk to. The vibe you get from him is like we are family. First, food choice to come out was the most fluffy burek slices ranging from cheese, spinach and even meat version. I truly enjoyed the meat slice so much I even licked my fingers clean. Second food selection that came out was the chevapi and man when I saw the meat was so juicy and tender it literally brings a smile to my face while making my mouth water. Make sure to rip a piece of the bread grab a piece of the meat and grab some onions you’ll thank me later. The chevapi is so flavorful that will drive your taste paletes into overtime!!! Third food selection the owner personally recommended to us was the two month old veal slow cooked to perfection. Literally you pierce your fork into it the meat just falls apart. First bite the flavor of the veal will take you to nirvana. Try this if you try the veal, take a piece of the bread from the chevapi and dip it into the bone marrow. That delicious flavor from slow cooking is going to kick you senses into overtime! Will I recommend someone to come try this restaurant? Absolutely!!! I cannot wait to go back and try this.“

“Fluffies offers fresh and delicious high qualitychicken. The service is fast and friendly. I love the crisp of the signature sandwich! The place was super busy on a Friday night but the staff were friendly and fast service. The dining room needs more attention. Highly recommend trying it.“
Mediterranean • $
“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!“
“Been meaning to try this place for awhile , finally went today and it didn't't disappoint. I placed an order for 60 Lahamacun and it was told it will be ready. Went to pick up and it was ready on time. They pack every 10 in a neat box. Fresh bread was just coming out of the oven and I had to try. The lahamacun is thin and made fresh, the seasoning was perfect. One of the best I tasted in NJ. The bread was fresh, soft and delicious also. Definitely going back to try the pides and pizzas. The staff was super friendly and even helped carry the boxes to my car.“
“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.“
“Just came in so late today before shut down ordered chicken over rice white sauce hot sauce bbq sauce man these guys no matter the time always make you feel welcome man the food and energy in this place ???? and when I eat this food this food I forget to have a beverage lol no bull man guys and they open late ? thank u guys“
“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.“
“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.“
“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.“
“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!“
“We held my wife’s baby shower at this restaurant, and we have ordered from here on multiple occasions. First, the food is phenomenal. From the chicken kebab to the falafel, all of the food is fresh, and seasoned and cooked to perfection.Nora and her team essentially treat the entire restaurant, including patrons, as family. They welcome you with warmth and will work with you to do anything your heart desires, within reason. You will feel so close to Nora from the start that you will likely give her a hug before you leave.The baby shower was a complete success- the restaurant is beautiful without being too much of a spectacle- and even has a tuned piano, which allowed us to have live background music for the event.My wife had a wonderful day, and it was made possible by Nora and all of the great staff at The Bosphorus!Dietary restrictions: Vegan and GF friendlyKid-friendliness: We had 5 kids at the event so they made them chicken fingers and fries to be safe!Wheelchair accessibility: First floor, double door- we had someone in a wide wheelchair. They even walked with the person in the wheelchair holding an umbrella for her!“
“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.“
“Alaeddin's Pizza best place ever. Everything is halal, everything is clean, the seating is amazing, the management is awesome, service is unprecedented, and most importantly, everything is delicious. Plus 5% off for their instagram followers @alaeddinspizza .“
“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 am food lover and I have visited this place it's food taste good, everything was perfect ... There customer services I amazing Mr. Awais is very kind and specially Mr. Hammad Hashmi they take care of customer and there services are really awesome... I personally recommend every food lover to visit this place and enjoy...“
“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 “
“been coming here for years now, food is always good & consistent. but today this female employee prompted me to scan a google card without saying why, just kept tapping it against my phone which i had put for the app. as soon as the review page came up she began to tap 5 stars for everything, without asking me or explaining anything. very suspicious & just completing this review so people know the ratings may be tampered with & completed by the employee rather than customers.“
“Loved the food! Metin provide such great service, from the free food to customizing the order exactly for over 40 people to all the good suggestions. Overall an amazing order. Highly recommend ordering from here for a fantastic catering meal.“

“This is the nicest quick serve I’ve ever eaten at. We tried the roast chicken and got it at the mild level of spiciness. They have 7 or 8 levels. The chicken was tender and well seasoned. For our sides, we got fried cassava that was wonderfully crispy and steamed vegetables that tasted of citrus and hints of spice. It was served on lovely plates at comfortable tables. We’ll definitely be back.Dietary restrictions: The restaurant is Halal.“
“First time trying this spot and I was satisfied. Usually all the good halal joints are in Brooklyn or queens but this was fairly close and the prices are reasonable. There’s also a load of options so I went in hungry and was so indecisive ? food was fresh and delicious, I will definitely be making this my go to spot. Also reminded me of the halal food spots in uk, had a similar ambiance ?Parking: Easy to find parking“
“Great and fast service. There are many selections and options you can choose from. The meat is freshly made which I love. Chef said was so helpful and gave great customer service. The prices are reasonable. Atmosphere and service , food was perfect ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️“
“Just had the best Pakistani food in New York. Karahi, daal chawal, behari boti and kulfi were soooooo good. Also special mention to our server Aneeba. She gave us an amazing service, went out of her way to help me charge my phone. Restaurant is super clean and maintained.“
“Hooooo boy that red sauce is ???. Kept wondering why the lady behind the counter be looking at me like I was insane when I told her to pour more on it like three times. Anyways. The combo platter is fantastic, quick service and very reasonable price for the quality and quantity. Zero complaints here. Great experience, will absolutely be coming back... probably gonna go easier on the red sauce tho.“
“Wonderful Lebanese counter with 2 tables inside. Their food is fresh and tasty, reasonably priced with meat and vegetarian offerings. Plus, they deliver!Unlike most Middle Eastern shawarma places , they have other Lebanese dishes like moussaka (Lebanese not Greek), and spinach pies, mujaddara, kibbeh and koshari.“
“Today my husband chose this place to celebrate his birthday, which is quite close to home and I already knew that it had a beautiful view. What I not imagined was that it had such delicious food, but the food is not the best, Didi's service The young woman who attended us was everything, I mean 100% recommended, there are people who come with their heart and make you feel special.“
“This food is absolutely amazing. The person in charge is super friendly and let's the food to be super customizable as per the customer's request. They also give extra to their regular customers. Hands down the best food joint in the Rutgers-NJIT area.“
“Grilled chicken PlatterFrom $8.99over basmati rice and salad (Lettuce, Tomato & Cucumber) with grilled Onion & Pepper, White Zone Sauce, Red Zone Sauce (spicy).I ordered from Uber Eats, so I don’t know how the service was, but from the way the place told the person who was bringing the food to hold it, it meant the people care about how one gets their food, which is good.This was my first time trying out this place. A friend who always comes here put me on, and well, I finally got to try it and it was a 10/10. The chicken was seasoned, not too salty, and the white sauce had a little something that makes it different from the other white sauces I get from other halal spots. The sauce alone gets a 10/10 ?. The red zone wasn’t too spicy, but man, it was good. It made me want to order another platter, but this time actually go in person to order it, as I found out they sell drinks that seem to go well with it. The pita bread was soft and came with two pieces, just like in the picture. Honestly, I usually don’t get the tomato and lettuce because I focus on the main things, but when everything is mixed together, it's a gem ?. Definitely check this place out if you live in the area or order from Uber Eats. And the best part is, they aren't expensive. I paid about $12.99 for the platter on Uber Eats, but I swear it’s worth it.“
“I’ve been visiting this place regularly for the past 3 years. Definitely one of the best places to eat at. The food is always delicious and Zuzu and everyone who works there always take care of their customers. 10/10 must try the chicken platter and their pita is surely one of the best ones out “
“first day at buger station with my wife and my 9yr old....the burgers are delicious...the cashier was a different story.....didn't smile....looked like she didnt want to be there,she had on a face.....messed up my order a couple of times.,...maybe she didn't understand me ....dont know“
“My wife and I came here for the first time to break our fast during Ramadan since it serves only Halal meat. The interaction started wrong since I got a burger with cheese when I asked for none on my Waygu. The kitchen quickly corrected it even with so many orders ahead of me. Burger + even gave me free dessert and soup to make it better.The burger was amazing and worth the wait ....highly recommend“
“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.“
“Checked it out because of the high rating on Google. I got the chopped cheese meal (fries & soda) with a fried Chicken drumstick on the side. Only $12.93 for everything! The chopped cheese was awesome, fully loaded texture and flavor bomb on a toasted Italian roll. It took only about 5 minutes to make. The chicken was seasoned nice and was super juicy on the inside yet golden crispy on the outside. I was stoked to try the fries next because there was enough for a family and golden in color. Sadly they were soggy, not fried nearly as long as they should have been and lacked salt. I ate just a few both with and without ketchup and tossed them. This small trendy looking corner store had a couple display cases with mainly fried chicken and desserts offered as grab-n-go. There were 2 thin tables to stand at and eat if desired and quiet with one chef and one cashier. Friendly staff though with great recommendations.Parking: Street parking already taken. Expect to park a block away.“
“From the moment we walked in we were greeted with a warm friendly environment. Usman was an absolutely wonderful host for the evening and made excellent suggestions and even told us a bit about the history of Halal Boyz, the locations, and the larger variety on the menu compared to typical Halal spots. My boyfriend got the chicken and lamb platter with a strip of hot sauce, strip of white sauce, and strip of BBQ sauce. I got the chicken tikka boti platter with white sauce and BBQ sauce. The flavors were outstanding. So many layers of flavor and tender juiciness and fresh veggies my eyes were wide and impressed with every bite. Usman offered us some chai for after our meal and the perfect soothing combination of cardamom, milk, cream, and Delicious tea was the perfect way to end our meal. Serving was plentiful we had left overs to take home and cannot wait for dinner tonight! Epic spot. And can't wait to try his suggestions of other menu items next time we're in the area. Thanks for your hospitality and we will be back!“
“Eylul is amazing, she recommended the Turkish brunch which was a medley of hot cold appetizers, homemade jams and with homemade breads. It was so unique and tasty. The platter was enough for 3 people. I would definitely come back again as they have such great service and attention to detail.Vegetarian options: A lot of veg optionsParking: Has both free and paid parkingKid-friendliness: Kids are allowedWheelchair accessibility: Open space“
“- chicken schwarma is good - portions are double to that which a hungry single person can eat - fries are different tasting and delcious - the slaw is a good side the the schwarma - I would not recommend arabic coffee delivery it settles and gets bitter in the end“
“I highly recommend this spot!! This is by far hands down the BEST halal food I’ve ever had!! A million times better than the halal guys! This place is very clean, excellent customer service, and the food is absolutely to die for!! I drive from Newark just to get food only from this spot! I cannot wait to go back!!“
“Felt like a trip back to Beirut Lebanon. If you have questions about authentic Lebanese food, come to Kamil's for the best basterma, lebneh With garlic, kibbeh, and beat seasoned chicken chops in town. The staff is attentive and always customer service with a smile. The atmosphere just takes you back to those starry nights in Beirut.“
“I live the food here. The restaurant is super clean and orders prepared fast however my orders are 80% wrong. I have complained but almost always I'm given something I did not order. Luckily the food is so good but they really need to work on accuracy“
