The baklava for desert ended the meal perfectly. I can’t wait to visit again!“

“Amazing food. The best Indian food I’ve ever had at any restaurant. Everything was clearly made from scratch (everything was homemade style,) plus the staff is super friendly and accommodating. The only thing is that they could use more help, as they are understaffed. Overall, absolutely delicious and quality experience!“

This was my first time having royal chicken & biscuit and it did not disappoint! I got the chicken sandwich with fries as well as the chicken over rice. Everything was well seasoned and just amazing. We will definitely be back!“

“The crispy chicken burger was a highlight, boasting a satisfying crunch and flavorful chicken patty. The loaded fries and masala fries were tasty sides, though the portion sizes could be more generous. The coleslaw was fresh and provided a refreshing contrast to the rich flavors of the main dishes.“

“We stopped by on our way and didn't expect this small place to have such good, tasty and fresh Mediterranean food. The order taker was friendly and nicely explained menu items. Seating place is average but for the kind of food absolutely perfect. Definitely a place to return for some halal Mediterranean food.“

“their food has more flavor than halal guys ? the new owners are doing great. the food is well worth your money. i recommend the mixed platter & their crispy fried chicken. affordable & very delicious, it's a hidden gem! thank you, keep up the great work. ?Vegetarian options: falafels “

“I have hired them to cater for my daughter’ grad party. The food is amazing. The owner is very responsive, prompt and on time. The food was so good. Everyone loved it. It was a huge success! I highly recommend this restaurant and their service“

“We love coming here for good halal burgers. The service is really good and it's a great place to come with friends and family. There isn't a lot of seating, so it depends on the time of day when you can find seating inside. Overall, it was a great experience.“

“Fresh made to order fried chicken with great flavor: piping/steaming hot and juicy dark meat. The wings are giant, the same size as a thigh piece! I'm lucky to live near a place that serves Halal Chicken and Waffles--only in America, and in central Jersey of all places.“

“Amazing owner and food!! We have lived in the south 40 years before moving here, and this is the best fried chicken we have had!! The owner values every customer! Everything we have tried from chicken to gyro to the burrito bowl entree were excellent!! You have to try this place!!“

“This was our first time trying PAK and we were very impressed. The chicken and rice was delicious and an extremely generous portion. Samosas were crispy and flavorful. If you love halal food, this is a great spot without having to travel to the city! We will definitely be back!“

“Okay so I had an urge to try something different. Tired of the same thing all the time. I stopped here, not knowing what I wanted. The gentleman gave me great assistance with kind humor. He was very nice. I ordered the Falafel dish with lamb and rice.Omg the Falafel is like a hush puppy on steroids. I loved it. The hummus was a real treat with the assortment of sauces to choose from. Absolutely, positively loved it. Nice cozy little atmosphere.“

“"Flame Kabeb House is a hidden gem! Their shawarmas are out of this world, packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the cozy atmosphere makes you feel like you're in the Middle East. Best kabeb house in the area, hands down! ??"“

“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.“

“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 !“

“This place is incredible. Every single dish that we ordered popped with flavor (chicken kabab with rice and salad, a traditional gyro, and Mediterranean platter w/baba ganoush, dolmas, grilled vegetables, falafel and pita). Everything had a lightness to it, freshly made and expertly prepared. This was nowhere more evident than with the baklava with its light crispy pastry, delicious honey and pistachio paste. The decor is warm and comfortable with exuberant music. We loved it and are definitely coming back. Btw, I felt that the portions were generous, but if you are value minded, you owe it to yourself to try the daily specials. We had the gyro on a Tuesday for $6.99 !“

“Clean and comfortable restaurant. Srava the waitress will take the time to explain the menu. He is kind. The food is authentic. I recommend the tilapia dish. It is spice,rich and healthy. 100 stats to this restaurantKid-friendliness: Srava is very friendly“

“This is undoubtedly the #1 desi ( Indian + Pakistani+ Bangladeshi ) food place in NJ -- hands down. None of the super-hyped places like Mughal etc. come anywhere close, We ordered party trays of Lamb Bhuna and Bihari Chicken Kabab yesterday -- it was amazing -- out of the world.“

“I just love their food! They really set a great atmosphere as they serve us with great food and great hospitality. Some of my favorite dishes are Hakka Noodles, Momos, Lamb Chop, Salmon Tikka, Masala Fries, Paneer Tikka Sizzler, Kesar Pista Kulfi, and Gajjar Halwa.“

“This shop is located in a small strip mall in Route 130, I went there to buy some chicken, they have organic chicken and best goat meat, actually I went to buy chicken only, but came back with a bag full of items, they have restaurant service too, a very well maintained neat place. I bought items like kebabs and butter chicken too? it was amazing and reasonably charged. Thank you, will come again.“

“The food was great. I have had "typical" Mediterranean/ Middle Eastern platters with similar main ingredients (lamb, rice, salad) but I think Alex generally does it better with essentially more kick. Everything was made to order and the sauce and however the rice or meat was seasoned was great. It had a very tolerable and great spiced flavor.“

“Food is always top notch here. My usual go to is the goat biryani medium spicy, which is the perfect level of heat. Hot but not flaming. If you’re lucky, you’ll also get a bit of marrow which, if you’re like me, you’ll love.Their chicken biryani (boneless and bone in varieties) and hariyali kebabs are also great. Get the chicken 65 for a good starter and wash it all down with a mango lassi!“

“We visited the restaurant for the first time when visiting family In Princeton NJ from Madison, WI. The food, service and atmosphere was great. I had the Haleem and Chana Halwa, have not had these dishes after 25 plus years and it immediately took me back to the home cooking I grew up with. Great job Uzma!“

“I got chicken kababs and white sauce. Kababs are very fresh, and green sauce is very, very tasty. Very reasonable price $2 per kabab. When I tasted it, the white sauce was good, too; I will try it at home too.Mr. Kamran is very, very friendly and hospitable. Thank you, Mr. Kamran!!“

“They are serving halal food since 1990.I love their customised platters , it's healthy, filling and so economical.So Indulge yourself in the irresistible flavors of their freshly prepared Platters, where every bite is a moment of pure satisfaction. Experience the perfect combination of savory goodness, meticulously crafted to create an unforgettable dining experience.We have triedHibiscus Iced TeaChicken PlatterFalafel with HummusSpiced Slow Braised Lamb comboBaklava cheese Cake....New Brunswick New JerseyMust visit for best and budget friendly halal food in your area ...“

“This is a great halal place not too far from the train station. The prices are quite reasonable, especially with the combo deals, and they have a great variety of burgers for people who prefer chicken or beef, or even mac and cheese/cheetos on their burgers! My brother and friend got the beef burger with the mac and cheese on it, and they both loved it. I personally like the classic chicken burger or the Chick Melt with fries and a soda. Their burger sauce is great and their portions are huge. The atmosphere is quite nice as well, with room to sit and eat.Dietary restrictions: This place caters to people who only eat halal.Parking: It's on a very busy road with limited street parking, so I prefer to walk from on campus.“

“PROs - good food (meat) , good service , nice location CONs- not much for veggie lovers First timer .. good location... right on oak tree and park ave . Lots of other shops in this strip mall. Lots of parking ... gets busy on weekends and peak hours .. they also sell baklava and few other sweets ... We ordered gyros .. we also asked for extra meat . So the quantity was really good . We saw them prepare the chicken gyro and it was just awesome . Meat was juicy and tasted perfect . Goes well with rice , salad ... kids liked it . There was felafel but very limited options for veggie lovers. Lots of place to sit and dine . Overall a good spot for a quick lunch.. priced good .“

“Not sure where to begin. The place is cozy but very nicely decorated. The service is very good and efficient. Thai food takes a while to prepare and they kept us informed of any delays. And when the food finally arrived, OMG... it was DELICIOUS!! Definitely worth the wait!!“

“I loveeee Kurry Zone. Everything I have tried from their menu is delicious, all my friends I bring here love it as well. I go multiple times a week cuz I’m hooked! I always have a pleasant experience being serviced when I come in to get my food. If you are looking for real food- that is seasoned to perfection, healthier, fulfilling, & nourishing this is the place to go. They provide large portions so I almost always have leftover. My favs are the Bhaigan Bharta, yellow dal, samosas & they have the best naan!! You won’t regret choosing to eat here :)Vegetarian options: I have tried most of the veg options here. They are all delicious.Dietary restrictions: As someone who’s allergic to nuts & milk they do a great job accommodating my allergies & easily adjust the meals so that I can still enjoy them fully!“

“I arrived around 4:15 on a rainy Saturday. The place was busy but there was no wait. The service was excellent. Food came out at a great pace. I'm ordered chicken chasri karhai, Aloo Parathas, and masala chai. Everything was excellent and reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend eating here.“

“I’m only rating 5 based off first time visit and I’m not trying to fill their rating with something negative bc to someone else this place may be a lot better to them or a lot worst. Maybe I’ll come on a different day at a different time and it’ll be a different experience. But for today it was like 330 in the afternoon I’m out here for work so I stopped in because my plug in lunchbox wasn’t working so maybe it was a sign. I got a Mini Zac which honestly was really good the sauce which seems like some type of creamy honey/sweet mustard idk how to describe it but seemed familiar was great I don’t usually like lettuce and tomatoe on burgers bc they usually take away from the burger. This was not the case here, the burger to me had great flavor that couldn’t be masked. If you’re a crispy fries type of person these are perfect nothing burned or too crispy where it’s inedible, perfect. The only thing I didn’t like was it wasn’t busy to have an idea of atmosphere and the customer service was good for the most part. I asked if they had a menu with some pictures or description bc they only have like 6 things on display on the screens above the cashier and the kiosk wasn’t working I’m sure bc everything where there would picture was greyed out. The response I got was “no we don’t have one” and “ You need pictures ….”“

“People are friendly and helpful. Food is delicious. We get chicken platter, lamb gyro, and fries and all of it is tasty and has become our favorite place.Parking: There is usually enough spots between the three businesses in the parking lot. It can get busier at times and not as many spots available.“

“First stop my dad makes when he visits from Chicago. The only Pakistani restaurant my kids get excited about. Excellent management and wait staff. Consistently delicious food and excellent service. My go to restaurant for Pakistani cuisine both dining out and catering. Shabash!“

“Popped in here to grab breakfast for the Family based off of my Son's suggestion. It's a small place located not far from downtown Plainfield. It's a no frills location with the typical "Chicken Shack" look. The staff handled multiple orders well without making mistakes. I didn't see them write anything down, they just took peoples complex orders & kept it moving. The food was very good. I watched them make it, & they are NOT shy when it comes to butter. I LOVE THAT! I am not one of those people that will ever say "hold the butter," or "light on the butter." They make everything in butter, lol....& I support that. They are Halal, so there is no pork on the menu, so if you're looking for bacon, you can only get Turkey bacon. We had the French toast w/Beef sausage. Waffle w/Beef sausage, & two orders of Chicken & Waffles. All of the food was good, the chicken are chicken tenders, definitely gotta deduct a star for that, Yes, just for that. Why? Cause their setup they could easily do the "chicken shack" style chicken on the waffle. That would be epic! The food was good though, so no complaints. Syrup is a little weak though. Could be a bit sweeter. French Toast w/Beef Sausage: AWaffle w/Beef Sausage: AChicken & Waffle: B-“

“We’ve been ordering from this place since last year and have tried a few items on the menu. My review is based on consistency and quality:Mains:Tribos Beef Burger with Hot Lamb Chops with Side:Corn on Cob with hot Masala Jalapeño poppers 4/4“

“We ordered the fried chicken, just a few legs. They were meaty and made fresh. This is a casual pizza place so more of a takeout spot. But it's the best halal fried chicken in the area. Will be going back the next time the kids are craving fried chicken.“

“Pictured: Half chicken alfredo, half buffalo chicken pie - $18Douglass Pizza is a classic for Rutgers students so had to check it out for ourselves. The buffalo chicken was a bit dry but the chicken alfredo was really creamy - altogether a 7/10. Their menu is pretty extensive & all halal. Definitely worth a try! ?Follow our insta: @nyc.halal for more halal food reviews!!“

“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.“

“The restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere and great attentive service. The food was wonderful and the portions were enough to share. The spice level was palatable and still flavorful. The only complaint is they don't offer free water, which seems like a money grab when serving food that uses lots of salt and spice.“

“We had dinner at Jimmy’s pizza on a whim and were pleased with our visit. We were greeted with an extremely friendly staff, ordered food that the whole family enjoyed, and the owner made sure that we were satisfied with our food. We will be stopping by again if we are in the area. Thank you Jimmy’s Pizza!“
