“Teddys Place is THEE PLACE! Greek-American restaurant located in Bayonne, NJ just off Broadway and boy do they know Greek cooking! Some of the best I’ve had and believe me this is no place dressed as a Trojan horse- I had to say it-anyway the food is phenomenal, they give you more than you’ll be able to eat in one sitting, the staff is super nice and friendly and the atmosphere is casual as expected. I’ll give them a B+ for prices as it is a little pricey but completely worth the quality of food they serve. At busy times parking can be a little tricky because there’s no parking lot just street parking. The moussaka - best ever! The Athenian fries out of this world as well as their salads and desserts. This is a must go and a must go AGAIN!

Kid-friendliness: Definitely a family place -kids welcone!“

“I am sick of reading all these negative ratings that people are leaving this amazing restaurant.All of these people have never eaten here and are just making ridiculous political nonsensical comments. People of all types are welcome here. There are many local Jews that eat here. the food is phenomenal! Chef Rawia always comes out to check on the clients to say hello and make small talk. So many racists just throwing out lies. They need to get a life! I recommend Tanoreen and looking forward to having marinated lamb shank, Califlower steak and some Knafeh. I will be back soon and bring my friends. ❤️“

“I visited New York for 6 days from the state of Texas and ended up having two meals at this location because the food was just that good. In a city where you have to be the best to survive, we chose to eat here for two meals! The flavors and consistency of quality and service were great. Can't say enough good things about this place! Keep up the good work gentlemen!“

“Absolutely fantastic! Can’t wait to return!“

“I have visited the Allentown location several times. The food is always great, but what’s even better is the feeling of warmth the staff and owners emit. Everyone has always been so incredibly kind and attentive. Excellent food and service!“

“Mamoun's Falafel is a classic, old-school establishment that consistently draws a crowd—and for good reason. The food is always fresh and delicious, making it a favorite spot for many. There’s never any issue with the quality or taste of the food; it’s simply excellent.

However, there are a few things to keep in mind. First, they only accept cash, so be prepared. If you’re short on cash, you'll need to use the ATM right outside the store, which charges a $3 fee. The staff, while efficient, can sometimes come across as brusque, especially when you request extras like sauce on the side or if you’re a dollar short. Also, seating is very limited, so it's best to plan on taking your food to go. The prices are slightly on the higher side, but given the quality of the food, it's worth it.“

“We really enjoyed our experience at Gazala's. Very reasonable prices for Manhattan. Excellent food. Very friendly and professional staff. Even the pickiest members of our party enjoyed it. I highly recommend it.“

“Amazing food! Great atmosphere and fantastic people.“

“The beautiful, intimate atmosphere and absolutely top notch comfort food would be worth it alone - BUT the service was also awesome. After we were graciously seated without a reservation (try to book ahead because you really won't want to miss this place), the staff was so kind, friendly, and attentive. Absolutely everything we had was wonderful but the knafeh actually brought a tear to my eye. ❤️ Absolutely would recommend 5 out of 5 stars.“

“Food was delicious, service prompt and pleasant. Ambiance is fabulous“

“KUBEH catered a luncheon event for 25 guests with perfection ! From the personal guidance ,menu planning, to the beautiful presentation of the foods, KUBEH deserves every accolade. Our guests raved over the foods! The diversity and deliciousness were outstanding. Thank you KUBEH for our huge success!“

“The food was so delicious and the ingredients tasted super fresh and of high quality. The staff was very nice and helped us choose - since we wanted everything on the menu. The place has a beautiful warm cozy but clean design, and we could feel the nice warmth of the big tabun oven from our table.

I would recommend and come back! The frena bread and hummus are obviously a must!“

“Happily surprised with how delicious this food was!!! I’m still dreaming of the baby lamb sandwich. The pita bread was soft, fresh and not too thick. First time trying a sea food pizza and it was heavenly and flavorful.

100% recommend. Very friendly service. The mint tea and baklawa were the perfect treat and amuse-Bouche to the meal.

Reasonable prices for quality. Variety of traditional middle eastern appetizers and comfort dishes.

Vegetarian options: Most of the appetizer vegetarian with main dishes that include falafel and eggplant.“

“Literally the best falafel and hummus in all of bay ridge, actually the best I’ve ever had! So fresh and tasty and they make their pita and all their breads fresh! The falafel sandwich is unbelievable!

Vegetarian options: Falafel, hummus, salad, taboolah, pickles, rice, falafel platter, falafel sandwich!“

“Each time I eat here I'm at a loss for words, but I'll try: My office is nearby and my coworkers and I have a tier list for 35+ local restaurants of all varieties. This one is at spot number 1. Their falafel is peerless, impeccable and downright divine. The chicken shawarma bursts with flavor within you and has a beautiful contrasting crust. The fries are gorgeous and extremely flavorful. The hummus is perfect.“

“We drove out of town for this restaurant and it was well worth it. The mint lemonade drink has the perfect balance of sweet and sour and the food was delicious. The food is especially perfect for larger crowds that want to share food. The staff are very friendly and fast in getting your order and bringing out the food to you. I also really admired the beautiful decor inside. If we lived closer we definitely would come to this restaurant all the time but since it is a very long drive we still plan on coming at least once a month.“

“I only got the falafel sandwich but OH MY DAYS was it good. First bite of that falafel:🤤 crunchy outside n moist interior. Listen man- they not cappin when they say it’s fresh here. The pita, the veggies, the falafel. I didn’t want it to end. HANDS DOWN BEST FALAFEL SAMMICH IN NY😮‍💨🔥🐗“

“My girlfriend and I stopped by Fire Kabob and WOW! This place is great! Clean dining area and SUPER friendly staff. We ordered 2 plates, chicken and Lamb and then a side of eggplant burani. The food is fresh and delicious! The rice and homemade sauces are excellent. It also came with a side of bread and salad. Can't wait to try out all their other items, we will definitely be back. I would post pics but we scarfed down every bit of it. It's a must try! Chicken and Lamb - Tender and cooked perfect. Eggplant Burani - a must try, unlike anything I have ever tried. Rice - seasoned perfect and you get a lot of it. Def try the sauces that come with it.“

“Casual, cozy place for tasty middle eastern food. Reasonable prices. Order the Lava Plate. Tasty but the meat was somewhat dry. Falafel was delicious and highly recommend! Coated in sesame seeds and served fresh.
I also really enjoyed the complimentary spiced tea!

Vegetarian options: Falafel, hummus, halloumi, salads“

“A very nice place to check out if you’re into mediterranean cuisine! Excellent vegetarian options and delicious food. But if you’re someone who enjoys good service like me then this is not the place. after being sat down for 15 mins the server gave the menu. After reminding 3 times, we finally got water which was bottled and we were not told about I assumed they would bring tap water and on top of that they will randomly put 15% or 18% tip irrespective of party size. Waiting for menu for 15 mins and then waiting for water not sure what kind of service one is getting and to top it off getting the drinks ordered post meal! Again if you’re a foody then this a good place to try but not for the service.“

“I love it nice food friendly ppl thank you“

“The environment and service are very delicious.“

“We hosted a private event at Zamaan, and both the service and food were excellent! Our guests were extremely satisfied with the cuisine. Despite arriving earlier than expected, the owner was very accommodating. We look forward to holding many more events at this venue.“

“This was my second meal at Bedouin Tent. The food and service are excellent. I ordered a spinach & chicken pea salad, but also ate a couple of slices of my sister's pizza. For dessert, the semolina & almond cake was delicious. The appearance of the place isn't great, but it was clean and adequately comfortable.“

“One of my favorite lunch places. Fresh, healthy, and delicious.“

“Small restaurant/menu but the food was very good, service attentive and friendly. The babaganoush and fresh pita were delicious and the grilled murguez sausage/chicken/vegetable platter was exceptional.“

“Great food with native Yemeni ambience and flavors.“

“Sooo delicious!!! Wonderful staff. Great owners!!“

“Yafa is such a gem. I’ve had the lamb haneef, the chicken sandwich and today, the BAT. Let me tell you. For such a simple sandwich, it was awesome. 10/10 hands down! The turkey used is flavorful and not the typical salty turkey bacon in the store. Paired it with the Hibiscus drink with rose. Don’t stop with the quality Yafa 👏🏽“

“Delicious food, nice atmosphere and excellent service. Love Oasis ❤️“

“The people here are so friendly and the food is amazing. Honestly some of the best food on Staten Island in my opinion.

Vegetarian options: Falafel platter is delicious. Also the babaganoush is some of the best I’ve ever had.“

“I’m ADDICTED to this place. The food is simple, fresh and delicious every time. The owner and Lisa are very efficient and friendly. We’re so lucky to have this place in our neighborhood. Highly recommend for a delicious, healthy AND cheap meal. ?“

“Been back here 3x in 2 weeks. As a restaurant owner myself, i can say this food is fresh and consistent. Get a mixed grill to share, it’ll have every kind of meat on there and you’ll be able to see which your favorites are. I will be back probably once a week!“

“Tasty fast and most conviniant place to have your order on your hands just after few seconds :$)“

“This was great. I was on a birthday with my family and it was excellent!Service was very polite, and the waiter was coming to your table every 3-5min. The owner(I think he is) was polite, too, and we were having fun. The food was excellent!Everything was really delicious and we were all happy. I'd recommend this restaurant to everyone! You should try it!!!“

“Cool Lebanese restaurant on Atlantic Ave.
it’s got a great vibe and whether you are sitting at the bar or eating you should have lots of fun.
The menu is Mediterranean diverse with hummus, tabouleh, baba ganoush. It’s better to go with a larger group since you really want to order as many dishes as possible and share them all.
They also have a large wine etc selection.“

“Wow. It was so good. Everything about it was good. The service (Marin was amazing), the food was delicious, healthy and very big portions…. And just pleasant great experience. My boyfriend says he’s coming back every week after this, his new favorite place.

Vegetarian options: There are lots , grilled vegetables, hummus, eggplant, salads.“

“I ate good. They park at a nice spot for walking traffic. Looks like good people and rating reflects their quality. Salchipapas went so flipping hard.Hello again, I tried the chicken parm wrap and the chicken+marinara melted in my mouth. The chicken was delicious and hot. Gonna try and eat everything there over time (except spicy food )Also the snicker bar was 25 cents cheaper than the lame rutger vending machines, but 25 cents more pricier than njit vending machine ?. It was $2.“
