“You get a very good size pita here! About the size of a biiiiig overstuffed burrito. The smoked eggplant in the falafel supreme is soooo good. Crepe was good too, it's one big crepe folded into a square instead of the usual rolls I'm used to. Definitely a share worthy size. Quick and friendly service too :)“
“Great atmosphere. Rapidly seated. Got the falafel, hummus and salsa (comes with pita but I declined). Got a plate of pickles, on the house, which were flavorful. The falafel plate was filling and flavorful. It came with five balls and it was sufficient. The hummus tasted so fresh. I had no complaints. Street parking fyi. They accept card.“
“I loved the food. It's very different. It was my first time experiencing Greek culinary. The cheese appetizer was soooo strong but good, the beet salad was great ( except for the goat cheese), the crab cakes i didn't like at all. the main dish was delicious. The desert was the best for me..they are not expensive and its BYOB.“
“My boyfriend and I had dinner tonight at Koy Grill. The food was absolutely amazing, and the desserts beyond delicious! Denver was a great waiter and very helpful with helping me figure out the menu. . I highly recommended Koy Grill. You won't be disappointed.Vegetarian options: Ask Denver“
“We’ve taken food out a few times from here but sat for dinner with a group of friends for the first time tonight. The food is always on point! There’s a great menu full of many options. We always come for their shish kebob. Our friends never been here before really enjoyed all the dishes and appetizers as well.The owner Raffy is a doll. He introduced himself to our group, and was very friendly and made great conversation. Highly recommend Old City Café!“
“Changing my review because it technically wasn't fair. The decor was very pretty. The waitress was nice and my husband enjoyed his pasta even though it was not as described on the menu. My eggplant was not done well and my lack of finishing it should have raised concern with the waitress. Overall it was a pleasant atmosphere and the wine list was extensive.“
“Love this place! Their lattes are so creative and delicious (cardamom, cloves, rose hips.. so many infusions/flavors). Donuts are also awesome and the staff are helpful. I passed this place for years and never went inside.. (mistake!) now I go all the time. Have to say, their name/sign don’t let on to how to how creative their menu and drinks are.“
“Ambeli Greek Taverna is an absolute gem! The food here is exceptional, with every bite bursting with authentic Greek flavors. The service is top-notch, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in. And let's talk about the octopus ? – it's truly outstanding, tender, and bursting with flavor, thanks for the recommendation Chris!! A must-visit for any food lover craving a taste of Greece!“
“Pretty good overall. Seemed like an amateurish operation at times but I understand they're trying to rebrand and become more of a steakhouse. I'd go back eventually to see how it turns out with the steaks (had seafood). But for what they're charging right now I would expect close to perfection, it wasn't near that. Still, overall good.“
“In the 1970s and 1980s I spent 15 summers from June to August in Greece. This is the most authentic Greek food I've had since I was there. The choices are extensive; the intimate atmosphere is exceptional and best of all the wait staff are friendly, helpful and delightful. The displays of the desserts are mouthwatering. And the Greek coffee is perfect. In this restaurant you are back home in Greece.“
“Another wonderful and enjoyable meal at Limani. We had a late lunch on Easter and were seated right away. Our server came to our table immediately and asked what we needed while looking over both the regular and special holiday menus. Our wine was opened and poured and bread, olive oil and seasoning placed on the table. We were not rushed making our decisions even as a steady crowd filled up the restaurant. We all enjoyed our appetizers, entrees and dessert (we had to share because we were so full) and will definitely be back again soon.“
“My visit here was super enjoyable and everything was really tasty. They have really good portions and a variety of flavors through out the dish’s. I would recommend the baba ghanoush and any of the kebabs. This is also a BYOB restaurant which is very convenient. It’s Also very pretty inside and outside that adds to the great atmosphere. Would recommend to try here Forsure.Kid-friendliness: Kids allowedWheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp“
“This was the best Turkish restaurant I have ever been to. They had wonderful service, who work really hard and are the best waiters! The general atmosphere was also really nice, everyone was happy and enjoying the experience. The food was also the best I have ever had. Other restaurants in the area cannot beat this. I will be coming back, this was a memorable experience!“
“One of the best Moroccan restaurants in the area. The Chicken Tagine and the Lamb Tagine was excellent and you can enjoy their delicious saffron rice all by itself. The portion sizes are quite hearty and good to share for two people. Get a reservation beforehand if you plan to visit on holidays or the weekend.“
“Visit this place every week during lunch. The food is amazing, taste delicious and consistent. I think this restaurant is far better choice than other places in the neighbor. Highly recommended!!!Vegetarian options: Recently added traditional Indian food option which is a complement to Chicken Shawarma for me.“
“Ellinikon is such a cute and cozy coffee shop/market. There are plenty of tables and spaces inside, but it does get crowded with various groups of people visiting and hanging out. That's not a drawback and lends itself to the lively atmosphere and a sense of community at Ellinikon.The food is great! I love the Democratus sandwich: the brioche bun melts in your mouth. I also really enjoy the Freddo coffee and the mango danishes. The staff is nice and friendly.The drawbacks: The Wi-Fi isn't secure and can be a bit tricky to connect to at times. However, once you're online, it's generally pretty reliable. In the seating area, there are only four outlets available (one set by the door and another by the benches), so make sure to plan ahead if you'll need to charge your devices. One other thing to consider is that sitting near the open kitchen sometimes makes my eyes water, possibly due to onions being cut during food preparation.Regardless, Ellinikon is one of my favorite places in Highland Park to meet up with friends or just spend time by myself. I just plan accordingly, and the drawbacks don't prevent me from enjoying my time at Ellinikon.“
“Masala Bay is a fast casual dining offering a blend of Indian and Middle Eastern-inspired bowls and burritos (wrapped in naan bread). Its unique naan variations paired with spicy spreads create an intriguing experience.Vegetarian options: Has a whole bunch of Naan Options, Falafel and Samosa chaat“
“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 ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️“
“It's a really great place to try if anyone likes Mediterranean food, and especially I recommend trying the falafel bowl or wrap because they make it fresh in front of you, and their quality and quantity are also awesome for the price they charge. Their customer service is really great. Overall, it's a must-visit place.“
“Every dinner here is above average- is that even possible? The (kosher) meat menu's large but everything is built on a theme. The knowledgeable waitstaff always guides us toward the best combinations. Last night we tried the stuffed eggplant appetizer- it was rich, salty, sweet, and sour. Probably not for everyone but it's now a favorite of ours. We also tried the pistachio lamb kebab, which was really unique and delicious. It came wrapped in a flatbread and covered in a tangy tomato sauce and ground pistachios. Super unique and tasty. Dessert was baklava made with kataifi and ground walnuts. My pancreas cried out for help while my taste buds told it to sit down. Totally worth the calories. Portions are huge- come hungry and prepared to take home leftovers.“
“Super cute and stylish place. You can tell they put a lot of thought behind the atmosphere, the food is absolutely delicious and the staff were very sweet and added sides with our dinner and a pastry for dessert with our coffee for free. Prices were extremely reasonable. I loved the hospitality and am so happy my husband and i decided to stop by to eat dinner. We will be ordering from here again! exquisitely tasty and great ambiance. A must try!“
“Small place with a 4-5 tables to sit at with counter service. Really good pita and hummus (super smooth and creamy), falafels (great consistency and taste), and chicken shawarma. Everything we ordered was good. Look forward to returning soon.“
“The owners are so polite and kind they make the orders super quick and tasty. I ordered the fat burger it reminds me of the Italian Cheesesteaks I grew up on in Jersey City it was amazing! I’ve ordered from this place several times now and every time it’s been good and they’re open later than most places in the area (10 PM on most days) so that’s a plus for me since I’m a bit of night owl. The portions are huge which I like and their menu has plenty of options to choose from. I love this place and will def be ordering more.“
“I’m just going to say what a wonderful experience we had with friends of ours who tried Turkish & Mediterranean Cuisine for the first time. Please make a reservation if you coming during the weekend because they’re really busy. BYOB is a fantastic idea. The dishes are yummy.“
“My family and I love this place. It’s the only place we go for breakfast. The food is delicious and fresh. I always order the same dish (Florentine Benedict’s) The service is great. Everyone is very attentive. They have outdoor seating and parking.“
“Walked in here looking for deli meat and was disappointed to find out they do not provide it, so I just got a sub instead. I was blown away - for the price, the quality and portion is simply incredible. Will be stopping by for lunch more often!“
“This restaurant is punching well above its weight. People, don't overthink thiswe got the lamb platter, and a lamb/chicken pizza. generous portion. very affordable pricing. good flavor. best part? the lamb platter is basically a version of nyc halal cart platter. but maybe even better in some ways? pickled cabbage, chick peas, hummus, idk what else. it's a good f-ing platter. Flavor still pretty goodThe pizza? ok not the trattoria style we're used in this area. but also good! $17 for 16", with meat, veggies, and generous but not obscene amount of cheese. c'monon top of all that, they included 2 complimentary sauce cups. one was some sort of black pepper ranch (but not ranch), and the other a fruitier, chutney-ish sort of sauce. they have an interesting flavoroverall, good pricing, and for the pricing, good quality, good flavor, and good portion. more and more, this sort of offering is harder to find in today's economy.food was ready on time. owner was nice. addressed discrepancies with grubhub, made substitutions easy for us and pricing did not changeIf nothing changes we will take out from pita+hummus again and again“
“"I visited this place today and the food was fantastic. the chef prepared everything with care and the service was excellent. The food was freshly made and had a lovely touch of charm to it. I am thoroughly impressed with this place and I will be back. I highly recommend it to everyone."?“
“Wow this place is so beautiful! The ambiance everything was amazing mashallah I really enjoyed my visit here. Came to try some Morrocan food for iftaar and for reservations right away. The service was beyond excellent. The owner was friendly and made sure I had a great experience. Food was very tasty and delicious! Really enjoyed it and the soup and Moroccan tea was my favorite! Highly recommend :) alhamdulilah will be back again when I visit from Texas thank you !“
“I was driving by and stopped to have dinner at this place. Not a fancy place but my meal was excellent.. I had stuffed eggplant and was totally satisfied. Service was fine, young lady didn't speak much English but that made the place so much more authentic. All the people eating here was Middle East and that how you now the food will be good“
“Great dinner! My friends and I enjoyed 5-6 different appetizers, both hot and cold. There are a ton of menu options to choose from. We enjoyed the parsley salad, Laila’s combo which included four different dips (baba ganoush, hummus, muhamara and a yogurt based dip), octopus entree, cauliflower with tahini sauce, and the mini hot pies. All very delicious!! They also had a belly dancer perform through the dinning room. Fun atmosphere. Staff very kind and friendly.“
“As MiddleEasterner, I definitely suggest this high quality Turkish restaurant for Kebab lovers. The food was so delicious as you feel you are in Istanbul and the hospitality proves it.Don’t forget to order Ayran (yougurt drink) as drink and Keshkul as dessert.I will come back again !“
“This place caught my friends today we stopped in and we were so excited and the place did not disappoint everybody was friendly the atmosphere the food was fabulous I love Greek food this is the best Greek food I've had in a long long time my friend and I were plotting when we could go back next it's worth a trip it's worth taking the drive if you don't live close best Gyros!!!!“
“I’ve been coming here for over 3 years now and the quality has been the same since day one. There’s a verity of delicious options on the menu and the gyro sandwiches are our favorite! The food is ready very quickly, perfect for takeout and never had my order messed up. Sam is a great guy and runs a great business.Dietary restrictions: If you ask them not to add something, they take it seriously and never messed up once in the 3 years I’ve been coming here“
“From one more small business owner to another, this is how you do it! I ran in at closing time. They had no slices left. I've been working all day and was starving. Instead of sending me away, Brent and his team asked me if I wanted a slice of the pizza they were taking home. Brent pulled out a slice for me, heated it up, gave me a bottle of water and wouldn't even charge me for it. This is what i'm talking about. They just don't make places like this anymore.Big shout out to Brent and his team. Thank you so much. I was so hungry. It really hit the spot. Please support small businesses like this, that go the extra mile!“
“Excellent place to go to . We had a lunch there today and all the food was delicious!It’s a family owned restaurant , very clean place and the food has all the savory off an authentic Lebanese restaurant !I highly recommend this place and if i could rated it i would give him 20 over 10Good luck guys“
“Great authentic Greek food bringing the flavors of Greece to New Jersey! Staff are friendly and the food amazing! They also have a terrace outside so you can enjoy when weather permits. As a bonus, they are byob and a there's a small store next to it that sells wine. They also own the Greek pastry shop next door for your Greek pastry fix. Reservations are highly recommended as they are very busy towards the end of the week.“
“Perhaps i ordered the wrong main entree. The appetizers were good we got wings and the pretzels 6/10. i got chicken and waffle for my main and i have to say it was the blandest chicken ive ever had. No flavor in the chicken or the coat. Bland waffle. Most of the seasonings were on the egg and they didnt even ask me how i want that cooked because i definitely wouldve said sunnyside up…. They gave me over hard 1/10. Being unhappy with my choice i tried some of my friends’ pizzas and they were decent if you like soft crust (no crunch)7/10 in my opinion. Pistachio ricotta cake was dessert and it was good 9/10.“
“If I could add more stars, I would. The staff was absolutely delightful, everything was clean, and best of all--the food was amazing! My only complaint is that I'm now completely addicted to their platters! 100 percent coming back here again (and again, and again)!“
“This place is my freaking go to for a salmon salad! I order a "caesar" salad with salmon. They give you such a generous piece of fish on top of the salad. I put caesar in quotes because it doesn't taste like your regular caesar dressing - but it still tastes good lol“
“It's been a while since I've had C&R. But this place brought back memories of standing in line on 53rd & 6th. Most importantly, the flavor was reminiscent of NYC carts. I was worried that it would become dry in the time it took the delivery to get to us but that wasn't the case. Even when I ate leftovers 3 days later, it was pretty good. Needless to say, next time I have a chicken & rice craving, I know where I'll be ordering from.“
“A neighborhood Italian food spot in a typical strip mall. The outstanding yet small menu leaves nothing out. Tender calamari tossed in balsamic with sweet fennel sausage - Yum! The "Angry Chicken Parm" was super tasty with some medium heat. The Barolo short-rib over risotto was also great. Finish with a cannoli and cheesecake. 10/10“
“Seems decent for quick middle eastern food! I’ve only visited once and tried their mixed shawarma bowl which was a mix of chicken and beef.I don’t know enough about different middle eastern cuisines to know what type of beef shawarmas are different but this type was the longer strips that were tougher.Sauces were white and a red sauce. The red sauce was not particularly spicy hot but added light flavor.The restaurant itself has a few seats and the street parking is metered.“
“4/6 : Google is showing a number, which is mentioned as a number on the website, but when we call, it is going to a different number. Nevertheless, no one is picking both numbers, called around 5 pm. Is this out of business??Old review:Good newyork style halal platters in oak tree road. Parking is available just opposite the shop. Boa ATM in 20 feet distance. Chicken platters, falafel, and hummus are good. Maintaining good quality.“
“This is my favorite restaurant and bar ever. I bring all my family and my friends here every time I am in New Jersey. And the staff are the best people ever. Can’t give this place enough compliments… 5 stars doesn’t even begin to cover it.“
“What an unexpected, pleasant dining experience. We had the experience of a meal that is a true delight.The pleasures that Silk Road provides are many: the elegant dining rooms, the attentive service, and the wonderful food, the attention to detail, and the friendly atmosphere all come together to delight the customer.We had been out on a dreary day, one of many such days lately. My wife suggested we go to Silk Road, that it would be a treat on such a somber afternoon. An excellent choice!We were promptly seated for lunch. No sooner than we were seated our server had a carafe of water on the table. The decor has been done with care, cloth napkins speak to the pride Silk Road takes in its image.We placed our order. We were immediately served Afghan salad and Lentil soup. The salad was loaded with fresh tomatoes and cucumbers, the lentil soup delicious (and I dislike lentils!). Two pieces of Afghan Bread were served shortly after, piping hot and delicious. We were told the bread is baked fresh in house. We could have been satisfied with these first offerings, which were offered with our entree. My wife had the Large Mantu, which are steamed dumplings filled with minced beef, chives, and afghan spices, garnished with dill yogurt. She shared some with me: delicious! I had Banjan, an eggplant dish redolent with Afghan spices. Both entrées came with Naringe Palaw, a rice with orange and saffron, an intriguing combination of flavors. My wife, who doesn't particularly like eggplant, loved my dish almost as much as I did. A true gustatory delight.The owner spent some time with us, his pride in his restaurant and his cuisine evident, his desire to provide a warm and friendly atmosphere makes for a great dining experience. Do yourself a favor: venture forth to Silk Road. You'll be pleased you did.“
“Mamoun's Falafel is a true gem for falafel enthusiasts! From the moment you step inside, you're enveloped in the inviting aroma of freshly fried falafel and exotic spices. The menu boasts an array of Middle Eastern delights, with their signature falafel stealing the show. Each bite is a delightful explosion of flavor and texture, perfectly complemented by the assortment of fresh salads and creamy tahini sauce.The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, making it the perfect spot for a quick bite or a leisurely meal with friends. While the service is efficient, there may be a slight wait during peak hours, but trust me, it's well worth it.Overall, Mamoun's Falafel delivers a delicious and authentic culinary experience that won't disappoint. Whether you're a falafel aficionado or simply looking to explore new flavors, this beloved eatery is a must-visit. Just be sure to come hungry!“
“Walked in, didn't expect much but was pleasantly surprised. The interiors felt like a high-end restaurant, and the food kept up with it!The covered outdoor space was comfy and classy, with beautiful green art on the walls. The flavors, taste, and texture were really top-notch Italian food I've had. Highly recommended.“
