“Great place to have seafood . Food is very delicious . I had a dragon roll which was good size . Bass was melting in my mouth and buttery but lacked seasoning. Fries very good size but not crispy. They need to work on fries . Greek salad was more of tomato salad than Greek salad . Lacking major Mediterranean elements .Dietary restrictions: Kosher“
“I brought a group of customers here for a dinner and could not have been more impressed. The service was not only excellent but also proactive (as in they brought us appetizers to hold us over until we could pick our appetizers, all without even being asked). The food was also top notch and overall very reasonably priced for a fleishik place. I will absolutely be bringing more clients here in the future!Dietary restrictions: Kosher meat“
“I'll be honest everything was nice and good except 1 thing. They did give us a free dessert for the review, fine, but tg bc the dessert they gave was not up to par with the rest of the meal. It was not much more than an overdone brownie. Cast a minor shadow over the night tbh. In conclusion, food, service good, dessert, not.“
“Delicious, israeli style food. Everything was so fresh and tasty, I finished everything I ordered down to the last crumb! Staff was friendly and helpful, offering suggestions as explaining all the different dishes. There was food made fresh on the grill and also an amazing display of other dishes, which just looked amazing! I can’t wait to come back and taste some other dishes! This place is great for a quick bite and for takeout.“
“We come here about once a week at the request of our children. The food is always consistently good and you really can't get better kosher deli food anywhere else in Nassau County. The remodel really spruced up the restaurant and added a nice modern look which definitely attracts younger people. You really can't go wrong with anything you order here. Food comes out quickly and is always delicious. We love the burgers, pastrami sandwiches, hot dogs and wraps. The waiters here are so attentive and very nice!“
“Thank you for catering my first holiday meal in GN. Everything was delicious. Turkey was juicy and succulent and went great with the couscous and sausage stuffing with plums. I used the liquid you gave to make it even more moist and have already made blintzes and salad and turkey fried rice with the rest.“
“Yes, this is one of the more expensive steakhouses in the 5T BUT I enjoyed everything about it. The ambience was great - quiet and nice lighting. Tried out a bunch of items on the menu and thought each one was excellent! Steak was made perfectly, which is probably their go-to product.“

“Since moving to the area, Nana's is one place that is consistently fantastic and everyone I bring here raves about it. Simple, yes, but freshly made, flavorful, and healthy isn't always easy to find when you're trying to grab a quick bite.I think the way the menu is laid out is a bit confusing if you've never been. Once you understand how to navigate that, it's smooth sailing.My regular order is the Mu'shwarma, pita or platter depending on how I feel that day. I am pescatarian and love that they don't use artificial fake meat, but this dish is just really well flavored mushrooms. Their platters are great because you can choose so many sides, and they REALLY stuff their pitas, so I think either one works, depending on what mood I'm in. If you get the platter, you can choose pita or pita chips on the side. Their pita chips are fresh and the best I've ever tasted. I'm not usually a drink gal, but I love their Limonana so I do order it quite frequently. Very refreshing and made with all fresh ingredients. Not overly sugary or anything. I've tried a bunch of their salads/salatim and they are all amazing, but the Babaganoush is a MUST. I'm not always a fan of the dish because of the texture but theirs is the best I've ever had. So flavorful and fantastic. Any of the spicy salads (spicy tomato) are actually quite spicy, so be aware. There isn't so much of an ambiance here as there's 1-2 tight tables and it's definitely more of a to go place, although I have dined in and eaten outside when weather permits. There is no table service. The prices are definitely on the higher side, but I can often stretch one of their meals to 2 and the ingredients are so fresh and so delicious, so it is worth the price. Don't expect any $7 street cart pitas here though! I've taken my parents and several friends and everyone that has been has only raved about how fresh and delicious it is, so it's a must go to and a neighborhood staple for me.“
“Fastest fast food in Five Towns!Had a 40 minute drive ahead of me, and thought it would be a good idea to stop and grab some supper to go. This place is neat and clean. No long lines waiting for food (or to PAY) like other places in Five Towns. I told the guy behind the counter that I need a generous food portion to eat while I'm driving. So he suggested the shawarma laffa. When he asked what I want inside, I said the 'works'. By the time I filled up my salad container and washed hamotzi, the laffa was ready to go. Eating it before it gets soggy is the key to success with this. Because if it happens, it'll be a mess. This shawarma laffa was a magnificent cylinder of craftsmanship filled with shawarma, salad, fries, fried onions, chumus, and more. And it was wrapped so well, that I could peel it a little bit at a time and eat while driving. One hand on the wheel, the other holding the laffa. The skill employed by the staff to make this and speed at which you can be served makes this one of the most underrated fast food joints in Five Towns.“
“I heard a lot about this pizza place so I decided to take the drive from Connecticut to taste it and let me tell you I wasn't disappointed the pizza here is amazing as well as the fries and the fried dough if you're ever in the area don't go to any other pizza place than this one“
“If you dont come here, you are missing out! The owners treat you like family. Customers are priority to them. Their food is amazing from pizza to salads to sushi to falafel! I have tried it all by now. Everything is fresh and you can just have everything on the menu because its THAT GOOD! Best pizza around!!! They do not miss a beat. Truly passionate people!! Highly recommend!!!!“
“Excellent food, service, and ambiance! Was in the area the other day, searched for Avocado Toast and it did not disappoint!! It was incredibly difficult to find, since the store is not labeled outside, but when I did, I went inside and the menu is updated from what is currently on Yelp. The staff were all very friendly, and accommodating. The flavors were totally unique and cannot wait to visit again!!“
“Very convenient location and fast service. The older gentleman at the counter taking our orders was super nice which helped us be patient while he struggled to put in our orders. The food was fantastic all around, I have absolutely zero complaints. It smelled so good in there (air freshener) I couldn't even smell the food cooking which made me nervous but I had nothing to worry about because it ended up being great. I especially loved the cinnamon on the grilled pineapple. The rice bowl was well balanced and seasoned to perfection. I could continue to rave about this place but you can just try it for yourself. P.S my friend said her left overs of the rice bowl was a bit greasy so I recommend eating everything fresh although that may be hard because it's a hefty serving of food.“

“Great food especially the laffa's but beware they include a mandatory 18% tip in the bill and then give you a additional receipt asking if you want to give a tip for 18%, 32% ect.. not mentioning that they already included 18% on the bill!“
“I went here for Hanukkah to get some fresh made latkes and was very pleasantly surprised by the size and how delicious they were. I tried both the traditional potato and the falafel latkes, along with a tray of assorted bourekas. Everyone loved all of the delicious goodies from Geffen!“
“On our way home from a day out, we decided to stop in for a few sandwiches. We call it a hidden gem. Quaint Kosher Deli, maybe 10 tables to sit for a quick bite or take out. I believe we were greeted by the owner - so nice and very welcoming. We sat at a table with menus, and he took our drink order, returning with drinks, a bowl of Cole slaw and a bowl of pickles. The Cole slaw was delicious, a little sweetness to it, not drowning in dressing. I ordered the Corned Beef on rye sandwich and my husband ordered the pastrami with Swiss cheese and a side of fries. My Corned Beef was tender and delicious, as was the rye bread. A perfect amount of meat, a decent portion for 1 person. Same with my husband's pastrami. The fries were a crinkle ends cut. Crisp on the outside, a nice potato on the inside - perfection!! They also gave us a sample of the sweet potato fries, which were equally as good, a nice sweet potato flavor. Notable mention to the pastrami knish and kasha knish that we noticed in the case and looked enticing - we will definitely try next time!! They also offer home made egg creams for those who enjoy them!“
“Really good fast food, literally fast everything came at once smoking hot potato skins, dyno ribs, chiken wings, meat pizza (pulled beef). Corn muffins side and green beans so good. I took corn muffins home and had them 2 days later from microwave, still good! Everything, including drinks under $120-130. Beef jerky, $15/pack Really taste amazing but for some reason I had diarrhea 2x from beef jerky alone, not bad just something off with it. Definitely coming back!“
“Visited the restaurant on a Saturday evening. It was very busy. We ordered a whole pizza pie, which was ready in minutes. The cost was high, but for kosher pizza it makes sense. Food was great. Highly recommend for a good kosher pizza.Parking: Metered parking during the business week. Weekends are free. May have to park a block away during busier times.Kid-friendliness: Family friendly. Lots of seating for families.“
“Very pleasant experience. The entire family enjoyed it. The food was fresh and tasted great. There was food for all ages. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The portion sizes were large. The menu has many options. The dining area was very clean.“
“This was one of the top 2 dinners we had both in the City and in the Hamptons this week and was also the least expensive. We couldn’t believe they have Chilean Sea Bass kabobs, and they are only $13 or $20 for a meal. Excellent. Also the dumpling chicken broth dill soup, baklava, hummus, pickles, fries, hot tea- literally everything was fresh and prepared to perfection. As other reviewers have written, this is a hole in the wall find, and I would come all the way to Queens to eat here again! Very near JFK. Service was fairly quick, clientele mostly large families, takes credit cards. Wonderful Israeli/middle eastern cuisine in a very casual atmosphere at very reasonable prices!“
“I absolutely love Traditions. This traditional (lol) yet revolutionary eatery blows my mind and taste buds every time I walk in the door. Whether you order the fantabulous pastrami kiev, which combines their fabulous deli with fantastic chicken breast, or a classic and custom triple decker deli sandwich, you wont leave dissatisfied- or hungry. While the restaurant is a bit busy for my preference, I cant blame anyone for coming here.“
“From a longtime customer at the old location who had been away for about 20 years it was delightful to come back to Woodrow and find the food, the service, and the staff even better than I remembered it. Terrific experience I will return. Thank you, Woodrows.“
“I went in to take my wife out for a bite on Sunday night. The food all freshly made from the sandwich to the fries and the southern fried chicken. I got the pastrami with chicken sandwich and it is good for 2 meals. The fries were not oily neither the regular nor the sweet potato. The wait for the food was not long at all. My wife ordered the special 2 piece chicken with fries. Slushies were good despite my brain freeze. The staff behind the counter explained the sandwich menu very simply and was very courteous and kind. Kudos. Please stop in and you won't be disappointed.Dietary restrictions: They had gluten free fried chicken fingers. Kosher everything“
“We have loved this place for a long time because of its cozy atmosphere and amazing menu. However, since it came under the new management (same great owners), the place became absolutely superb. The food is prepared to perfection. Everything is tasty and delicious. The ambience created by the recent renovations is even more welcoming than it used to be. The owners, managers and staff are very honest, considerate and accommodating. Last, but not least, their prices are very competitive and affordable. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. We recently hosted a family event for approximately 40 people there, and everybody was extremely satisfied. It’s a perfect place for a date night or a big family gathering.“
“It was absolutely a pleasure. The place was beautiful, and the ambience was great.The service was out of this world. I really felt prioritized, and of course, one of the most important things the food was spectacular. Definitely recommend for a group event or a date or just a night out.“
“Great fresh sushi and friendly staff. Definitely recommend for anyone that wants sushi at a good price point. The meat/chicken menu is also tasty. If I could review every time I pick up food for my family I would be leaving multiple 5 star reviews per month.“
“Went the other evening with a group of friends and we had a fantastic time. Great assortment of food, superb service by the staff, and a nice ambiance.The meats tasted great and the side dishes complemented them well. Also can’t say enough about how good that pineapple was - worth going here just for that.A lot of these types of establishments will try to cheap out on how much they serve but we were treated to a true all you can eat experience. At a certain point we needed to ask the waiters to stop because we were all too full.In short we had a fantastic time and we definitely plan on going back.“
“Nice community grocery store. I can’t go there without running into a friend. Great place and vibes. It is often pricey but everything is high quality and you can’t get the small neighborhood grocery store feel anywhere else. There is about 5 isles and they have produce, baked good, Jew supplies, snack desert, and fresh sushi. If need last minute shobbas food i and d is the place.“
“Vecselberg's is magnifique yet comfortable, but don't surprised if the only XY (apart from you perhaps) in the place is the proprietor's spouse who's also the chef. Their off-the-menu iced teas are delicious, as their paninis, salads, sandwiches, baked goods, et al. Established in 2004, it's a warm, inviting, heimish, intimate and savory eatery further enhanced by the small painting of the Lubavitcher Rebbe's smiling countenance welcoming you.“
“The service was very good and the food was excellent. We were seated right away and the server brought over water and took our order. All of the dishes we tried were hot and came out quickly. The steamed dumplings had a good amount of filling and were nicely seasoned. The house special noodle soup had chicken, beef, and veal(?) and the noodles still had nice texture, the broth was flavorful. We ate Crispy Beef, Chicken and Tofu and Moo Shu Veal. We had white rice and brown rice. Everything was excellent.“
“These guys delivered the goods. It was my mom's 98th birthday in Great Neck and I could be there due to ankle surgery in Florida. So I did the next next thing. I ordered from Kensington Deli in Great Neck and they really came through with the goods. My mom had enough left over for another 3 days. She had her fav, tongue on rye with spicy mustard. Half sour pickle, Cole slaw and a potato knish which she is saving because she was too full. She called me to thank me and to tell me how delicious it was and how big it was. Thank you from me and my family for stepping in and helping to celebrate our mom's 98th birthday“
“The food was incredibly delicious! I opted for the falafel wrap with fresh lettuce, hummus, and tahini sauce, and it was simply amazing. You can taste the freshness, and it was made with great care. I'll certainly be returning for more.“
“Their food is already pretty delicious, but once you put the sauces... Their sauces are absolutely insane. Also the brisket fries are top tier. On behalf of the Great Neck community, I give this place a solid 5/5. We love you ❤️P.S. I don't know if it was the owner that was serving us, but this guy at the counter gave me all the extras I asked for WITHOUT hesitation.“
“Best israeli restaurant in NYC, this place is a hidden gem.My wife and I love hummus, and it was as good as the one we had in Israel.Also, the owners are very kind, they actually watched over my kid while I took the other one the bathroom ?Go!!!“
“Great customer service. The girl at the counter was very patient with us since we just arrived to New York and the brain was foggy. Get the crazy kafta tortilla with everything on it. It is DELICIOUS!!!! I would come back and get another and add a fried egg in it.“
“The workers where extremely friendly and helpful, the pizza was outstanding, fresh and had the perfect amount of cheese and sauce, also a huge variety of food. Honestly best pizza in New York easily! Definitely check it out I recommend it to anyone. 5 stars easily!“
“Great all around place to eat in, take out or order for delivery. Great owner, manager and customer service. I have ordered and eaten at the restaurant dozens of times, taken out probably twice as much (and eaten 5x as many times at other places that ordered from Carlos and Gabbys) and ordered innumerable times to be delivered through Uber Eats. Amazing menu options, tasty food and I am getting hungry just writing this review.“
“Great staff. It’s very interactive because there’s a white board anyone can right on and the tables have games like tic tac toe and connect four. It is really nice and I recommend going with friends. Also look out for deals. Never got something there and didnt like it. Everything there is a hit.Dietary restrictions: Offer nut free and dairy free and vegan options.Parking: It’s in a shopping center so tons of parking with many people going out and in.Kid-friendliness: Have lots of food portion sizes and games!“
