“This place is amazing! Such fresh food and amazing service! I regularly get the chicken schnitzel platter (make sure to get the white sauce, it is incredible) and I also love their falafel pita sandwich - they have an incredible salad bar with all types of toppings - once you’ve gone here, you won’t be able to go anywhere else - real talk“
“I had such a great time dining in and having hookah with my husband I really loved the cozy atmosphere and the fact that the place was so relaxing and peaceful. We got hookah which was of great quality , and long-lasting , we had a delicious pot of Arabic tea and an amazing rice pudding. I found a real authentic Lebanese food and atmosphere! The staff is so knowledgeable and so kind, we’ll definitely be back again.“
“We enjoyed dining in this beautiful restaurant, and the whole experience was complete. We had a great dining experience with the seating service, especially when I had the Kufta Kebab. Each bite felt like it was unleashing a perfectly balanced juicy succulence of the flavors, brought irresistibly forward by the mastery of spice handling from the hands of the chef. But really and honestly, the service did do a great deed toward our lifted evening. Our waitress indeed topped the experience, literally and metaphorically. Each of us was more than comfortable and happy. It truly made a great evening. But the true ambiance setters were the live musical performers. This delightful background and the cozy yet stylish restaurant decoration set an inspiring mood. I highly recommend this gem for its excellent culinary service, vibrant vibes, and immaculate service. Such a place is recommendable to all those who would like to treat themselves to dining out.“

“Quaint little spot with parking in the back. Friendly pleasant staff & good food. Went on a Friday afternoon and had the place to ourselves. The amazing seasonings in the rice was our fave, the hummus and pita, and falafel was also great. The mint lemonade hit the spot and the lentil soup was yummy. Only disappointment was with how oily the fries were. We barely touched it. Aside from this, we enjoyed our time here and would return.“
“Zaffron Bloom in Hasbrouck Heights, NJ, is a delightful addition to the culinary scene, offering a fusion of Modern Persian Cuisine with Middle-terranean influence. Helmed by Chef Shahin, whose years of catering experience have culminated in the realization of her dream restaurant, Zaffron Bloom promises a unique dining experience. The restaurant's namesake spice, saffron, is aptly celebrated for its rich history, cultural significance, and exquisite flavor profile.During our lunch visit, we were treated to a delicious meal that surpassed our expectations. The service was impeccable, exceeding the standard. Our decision to dine at Zaffron Bloom was influenced by a friend's glowing recommendation, and we're thrilled to have discovered this gem. Zaffron Bloom truly embodies the essence of "the spice of life" with its innovative approach to traditional Persian cuisine. Deliciousness!! To all Yelpers.... Guys we have to support small local business. It's more important than you can imagine especially during these times. Give them a try, we're sure you'll enjoy it. Be on the lookout... a little insider info, they'll soon be opening a market adjacent to Zaffron. Good luck with all and future ventures. @vinopotato.“
“Alright! Where do i begin?! There were 4 people behind the counter and when i walked in, all four greeted me. The manager greeted at the ordering station and didnt overwhelm me to order my food as this was the first time being there. He asked me if id like any suggestions and we landed on the chicken platter with spicy chickpeas rice and cole slaw. Everything about this bowl was immaculate. The chicken was well seasoned and spiced, the chick peas were tender and savory, and the rice was such a great compliment to the protein. I also ordered their fries because why not!The portion size was generous but not overbearing. They had the mexican coke glass bottles which was a great choice to wash the food down with. I got the brown to top it all off and it was amazing. Chipotle, Qdoba, Halal Guys even have nothing on Juicy Platters. I definitely will be coming back with the family!“
“If you are looking for a delicious Mansaf, Kan Zaman is the place. The service is very friendly and the portion of the meal is more than enough. The atmosphere is also great. Very good seatings and you can always have the Arabic coffee thats available for free after the meal. Keep it up guys ??“
“4 out of 5 stars. I've visited this place on numerous occasions and even had their food catered for my birthday celebration. Tonight, I dined with a group of five. We waited for an hour and a half to be seated, followed by another hour for our food to arrive. While the food is tasty, it's not worth waiting over two hours. The manager gave us complimentary tea, but overall, the experience falls short of a perfect score for me.“
“Incredible & welcoming customer service. Delicious food. Huge portions at affordable prices.The owner Shlomo goes out of his way to ensure everyone is taken care of.We drive over an hour at least twice a month just cause we enjoy our food experience.Highly recommend!“
“We’ve been going to and have catered from Al Basha many times over the years. The food is always very good and the service is great. Mahmoud and rest of the people always provide excellent service. Would highly recommend this place for take out and catering!“
“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!“
“If you’re in the area, this is definitely one of your best options for middle-eastern cuisine. If you’re like me, picky about your meat, then just know their meat here is clean and not smelly. Plus, their dishes are authentic, and it does taste like your own mama cooked it ! Definitely worth the try with some friends/family!“
“Been eating At this lovely restaurant for years.. it’s about time to give them the review they deserve.. absolutely amazing and highly recommended to anyone who’s into authentic Mediterranean food.Shout out to Rayan and his brother for incredible services.“
“The food is very delicious, fresh, and it is a great portion. I like the sides that the sandwich comes with. The shawarma is very flavorful and perfect. I picked the lamb shawarma sandwich and would recommend it. The service was amazing and everyone working there was very friendly and helpful. All of our orders were correct. The ambiance was great too, it a nice and many tables to sit at. The music wasn't too loud. I would highly recommend this spot if you are in the area and looking for a good bite to eat.“
“I found this place on yelp and decided to give it a try because I was in town on business. The atmosphere was very inviting. My server was pleasant, knowledgeable, and very helpful in many recommendations. I ended up with the lunch special kebab. It came with the most delightful salad featuring best flavors! The main course was a generous portion of chicken, rice, and another salad. I would definitely make it a point to visit here again!“
“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).“
“Hands down this is the best falafel I have ever had. So fresh, so tasty, and is truly made with love. The interior of this restaurant is very unique and homey. I also had the kufta sandwich that has since become my new favourite. The service is always top notch and the plate presentation is always very impressive.“
“I left a 5 star review but updating to share a few videos. The knafa has more of a savory sweet taste vs. other bakeries that drench it with syrup. Anytime I go, I get the znoot el sit, which is soft on the top and middle, and crispy at the bottom. So good!“
“Today was my first visit here, and it made me wish I lived closer! George and his staff made us feel like family, and the food was all so fresh and delicious. We started with an order of Zaatar fries [where have you been all my life]. They arrived crispy and seasoned to perfection. They need nothing, but a side of lebneh to dip in would take them over the top; note to self for next time... Next out was a huge and stunning platter, the mixed grill for two. See my pic for the lovely presentation of tasty grilled meats and veggies they served us. There was more than enough for us to share, and it was all thoughtfully prepared. Sure, I may have overdone it with the garlic sauce, but it was worth every minute! Just make sure everyone else has some, too.Not everyone belongs in this business, but George and his people certainly do; I feel like I just got back from having home-cooked lunch at my cousin's.Oh, don't miss the Iced Mint Lemonade! They serve it frozen, and it's a real treat.“
“I tried EFI’s today from just passing by without looking at any reviews/ knowledge about the place i was PLEASANTLY surprised on the food! I got 2 lamb gyros and spanakopita to go. The lamb meat was GOOD but I got some nasty hard pieces. But, after getting rid of the pieces the gyros were great STUFFED with fries and I Loved it! I would 100% go back but i would personally try the chicken instead. The spanakopita was great and enough to share between two!“
“We had our baby's first birthday party / Korean dohljanchi at Mado and it could not have been more perfect. Aret and everyone at the restaurant were so wonderful to work with. They were happy to work with my requests and made party planning so easy. The space was the perfect size with ample parking for our guests. The food was amazing and everyone raved about the pillowy bread, dips, and entrees. Highly recommend it whether it's for a family meal or event. (Photos by Lisi Halabi Photography)“
“Le Souk felt like I was enjoying a meal in someone's home in Syria. Soft, Middle Eastern guitar melodies played in the background as I enjoyed my food. The restaurant was decorated with a myriad of artistic knickknacks. My server was polite, and they came to check in throughout my time there.I took advantage of the 4 appetizers for $30 deal as I was not super hungry. I ordered their beet salad, falafel waffle, stuffed grape leaves, and stuffed kebeh. I intended on ordering the dandelion greens, but they were not available, which was disappointing. The food I did receive, though, was a nice window into their menu.The stuffed kebeh was my favorite, a nice crispy shell with a nutty flavor, juicy ground beef inside, with just a little pomegranate syrup to add a bit of tangy sweetness.I'd love to come back and try some of their sandwiches or an entree in the future. Thanks for the food!“
“Really good! I had the chicken shawarma platter and the chicken was perfectly flavored but it was a bit overcooked and dry. It was right before closing so I won't hold it against them. The rice was really flavorful and fluffy. The salad was delicious. would return again!“
“OMG, everything I’ve had here is amazing! The staff is lovely and friendly also. Can’t say enough good things, just go and get some mouth watering food. I go there once every few weeks because, I never want to get tired of it. Great choice for vegans and vegetarians also.Vegetarian options: Best moist falafels, humus, baba ghanoush. cauliflower is amazing, salads“
“You have great delicious food, you are healthy, welcoming with a smile, service is fast, there is no waiting time, the food comes immediately, you are very kind, the taste of the lahmacun is delicious, I am pleased to come constantly ten stars.Excellent food , all stuff is respect and a very clean place . Highly recommended“
“The best of the best. Everything on the menu is fantastic, but I’ve never been able to find a comparable chicken koobideh (ground chicken kebab.) It’s juicy, spiced beautifully, and absolutely delicious.My wife and I make an hour and fifteen minute drive whenever we can to partake, and you better believe we place an extra order to go for lunch the next day. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to some delectable Persian cuisine!“
“Stop by Thursday night for the first time after work. I was very surprised and impressed from the moment I arrived. Very upscale and elegant place with alot of attention to detail, with a very warm relaxed feeling and a very inviting cozy mood ambience.The service and food was phenomenal and Jorge, the bartender/manager was great, also enhanced my experience, he's very detailed may me and my friend feel very special.I felt like, i was actually in Dubai. If you're looking to escape the stress from the day and week and have great night. I highly recommend Little Dubai It's a five star winner ! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️The best kept secret in North Jersey N.Y. metropolitan area.“
“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 “
“Delicious- fresh- reasonable! We will be back. Just be aware… if you are gluten free, the rice has semolina and the fries are coated with wheat. Ask a lot of Q’s about GF options!Such a sweet place.Vegetarian options: Choices galore! Fresh!Parking: Easy!!!“
“I wanted to try the iraqi food so bad and I heard about this place and it was definitely worth the visit! their traditional Iraqi cuisine is absolutely mouthwatering!? From the kebabs to the eggplant salad , every bite is a taste of authenticity. The warm and the welcoming atmosphere adds to the overall experience. You should definitely give it a try!“
“I've had Laffa Shawarma and Laffa chicken.Tastes good, good portion and fairly priced.Very few selections of add-ons to your meal, the place itself is as basic as it gets, but clean.Will occasionally return since there are no other options for Israeli Shawarma in the area.“
“This place is a staple in my lunch rotation! Every Thursday I’m excited to order food. The quality is second to none, compared to the alternatives. Had a pleasure speaking with the owner. He’s very professional and treats customers well. Highly recommend.“
“FINALY after Covid we took some friends to our favored middle eastern restaurant this past Saturday . As usual we were greeted by our first names as we had not been there for three years! we had the combo maza which was great. The muhammara was just right. Our friends had the lamb shish kebab and the shawarma combo. Both plates were huge with two skewers of meet in each! According to them it was the best they ever had. For a change I had the kibbeh in a tray meal with yogurt which brought back memories of childhood when my mother made it. I can't say enough about the quality of the food. The service is the friendliest you will ever experience“
“Amazing, does not do their shawarma justice. Very authentic , from the flavors to how packed and generous the portions are. Only complaint is you don’t have the pick of toppings such as pickled veggies for Ex.This is a welcoming establishment offering great eats for all cultures. There are no politics inside which I love , but they show the faces of innocent children, women and men who have suffered from savage acts.. this is a duty they don’t have to do but they choose to do it knowing the harassment they can face. It’s important for everyone of us Americans to understand what is happening and not let their pain and abuse go silentCan’t this recommend this place enough 10/10“
“Hidden gem...Hole in the wall. The Iraqi Kababs are mind blowing and the Dolma are a must try for vegetarians. The smoked yogurt drink washes it down perfectly but it might be an acquired taste for some. The eggplant salad is extremely flavorful and a great way to start the meal. For those looking to try something different I highly suggest AlMazaq!“
“Walking into this restaurant with the smell of incense and the employee politely greeting us. I asked him what’s recommended and he told us to order the mixed grill. Within 10 minutes, we had our food. The food was so delicious that my friend and I didn’t speak to each other the entire time we were there because it tasted so good. A large platter of food for only $15 and it was filling too. Would highly recommend coming here and getting the mixed grill!“
“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.“
“Visited from out of town, as it was highly recommended! Went with a group on 2 separate occasions for dinner & breakfast. Both times the service, food, & atmosphere was great & very welcoming!Ismail & Saif made sure our food came out quickly & hot, they made sure our group had all that we need & had great care towards our order...overall great service, flavorful food, & spacious. Definitely met expectations & would visit again!“
“Amazing Falafel sandwiches, authentic as it gets, and as clean as it gets!Vegetarian options: Vegetarians will love this place, king of falafelKid-friendliness: Staff is super friendly and the inside is very cozy, your family will feel at home“
