Middle Eastern Restaurants near Collingswood, NJ

“I ordered for pick-up tonight and the storm blew down a tree across my street. I called and they offered to bring it to me despite the downed tree and storm. I was totally surprised and impressed when the driver walked two blocks to get the food to us. Oh, and it was delicious too.“

“It’s very tasty there, we always order from them when going to center city, definitely recommend!!“

“We ate here for the first time and I think this is the best place I’ve ever eaten. The staff was super friendly, they were very accommodating to my gluten allergy, and the food portions were huge. I really enjoyed everything. I wish they would open a restaurant on the Florida Panhandle or honestly anywhere within 8 hours drive of us.“

“I grew up on homemade Middle Eastern food made daily by my parents, so I’m very picky when it comes to authenticity. I’ve tried a few places that just didn’t hit the mark—but AL SHAM in Chalfont is a straight 10/10!! They serve real Arabic bread (pita)—not tortillas disguised as pita like you find at other places—and their homemade Lebanese toum (garlic aioli) is the real deal. One bite of their falafel wrap instantly transported me to a boardwalk in Lebanon, overlooking the Mediterranean—complete with fresh bread, Lebanese pickles, and those perfect pickled turnips. The meat is 100% Halal and you can taste the quality. Flavorful, fresh, and clearly made with care. **This is the kind of spot you want to support. We’ll be back again and again—do yourself a favor and try them ASAP**“

“Highly recommend Dizengoff if you’re in Philly and craving authentic Middle Eastern flavors. This cozy spot, from chef Michael Solomonov delivers Israeli street food vibes with serious flavor. The Lamb Köfte wrap was amazing! 🌯 Fresh lamb meatballs, chopped Salad, Sumac Onions, Tehina, Israeli pickel, hot pepper, wrapped in pita Isralie Breakfast also a MUST try! Za’atar Omelette, Labneh, Schug, Olives, Chopped Salad, Pita Our table shared an unbelievably smooth and rich plate of Hummus Yerushalmi 🥙 Beef, Baharat, Pine Nuts, Parsley, served warm with pillowy, freshly baked pita that’s worth the trip alone. The atmosphere is casual and energetic, with friendly staff who are happy to explain the menu. WOULD LOVE TO SEE THIS CONCEPT IN BALTIMORE! 🇮🇱 ממש טעים“

“Very tasty food and very personable owner. You need to try the falafel and also the Fava beans. I would go back again in a heartbeat.“

“We didn’t get to eat at Zahav - but got the next big thing and ordered the Lamb Meal from gold belly with salatim. It was DELICIOUS!! Best lamb we have ever had, so delicious. Salads were yummy, hummus well done and could easily feed 6 adults. So. Much. Food. If you can’t make it to the restaurant- order the kit from Goldbelly and treat yourself!“

“The restaurant was empty, so myself and my partner were able to get good seating. The service was excellent and the portion sizes are huge. And all I had were 2 side orders! We did order an entrée, and the size of it was good too. 5/5 highly recommend!
PS: They do NOT serve alcohol. The policy is BYOB!“

“My husband and I went today for lunch!! It was very good. The hummus was amazing. I had the chicken shawarma sandwich and it was very fulfilling. The dessert was great too! I will be back“

“If you are in a mood for a great barbecue experience look no further than al-baik. Everything was excellent the temperature of the meats, including lamb, beef kebab, chicken kebab lamb chops just a wonderful experience. If you’re in the neighborhood, you must try it.“

“Saying this place is amazing would be an understatement.... I just found a hidden Gem!!!

La comida riquisima! En mi opinión extremadamente deliciosa! El sabor super unico... no se arrepentiran!!“

“Great food! Wonderful customer service. Very attentive to my requests. Keep up the good work.“

“Fresh 🍲, tasts good too......“

“Probably one of my favorite lunch spots . Food is always on point and everything is always fresh . I love the little pre-cut cups of fruit. Looks like they just did a remodel on the whole place too so everything is fresh and clean looking . Everyone that works here is always super nice and friendly . Definetly check them out“

“Everything we ordered was so fresh, portions so large we had to take a lot home. They even went to effort to find us tabbouleh when they thought it was sold out and was it delicious. Our party included one vegan, one vegetarian and one mainly veg. Special mention to the pita, a cloud of wonderfulness, and the ginger juice, a spicy, sweet, delicious treat. We'll be back soon!“

“Saad’s has one of the best cheesesteaks in the city. Yes, you heard that right. The halal nature of their cooking means they have the finest meats, cheese, and bread. The steak was very flavorful without the greasy mess that a lot of others have. The fries are amazing, too. The place is a little small so getting it to-go is recommended. All-in-all, you can’t go wrong here.“

“The food was wonderful as the service was fast. I couldn’t believe the check. Extremely reasonable for all you get. I’d definitely recommend Kanella to anyone“

“Stumbled upon Pita Chip while looking for a quick halal lunch during a visit to Philly. I didn’t know what to expect, but the combo over rice was flavorful and satisfying—hit the spot without being too heavy. The food came out quickly and had a nice balance of spices and sauces. If I lived in Philly, this would definitely be one of my go-to spots for casual, reliable halal food. Great option for a quick bite that doesn’t compromise on taste.“

“I tried the salta here — and it was great — but the lamb Fahsa? Oh my god. Absolutely incredible. Perfectly seasoned, rich, and so filling. The bread portion was exactly what it should be: generous enough to fully enjoy the dish the way it’s meant to be eaten.

As a non-Yemeni Middle Easterner, this was my first real experience with Yemeni food, and I was blown away. I was so impressed that I later tried a Fahsa at another Yemeni spot just to compare — and it wasn’t even close to what I had here.

The atmosphere here is phenomenal, but not in the overdone, “look at our décor” kind of way. They don’t rely on flashy visuals or gimmicks — you walk in, order your food, sit down, and the focus is entirely on the food and the experience. That’s how you know a place is truly good.

The service was also top-notch — friendly, attentive, and genuine. You really can’t get any better than that.

If you’re looking for true, authentic Yemeni food, this is the spot. This is the spot. Whether you’re a tourist or someone craving proper Middle Eastern Yemeni cooking with the right portions, Hadramaut delivers every time.“

“The smoothies here are so good! Fresh, flavorful, and not overly sweet like some places. They were super refreshing, perfect texture, and didn’t taste artificial at all. You can tell they use quality ingredients.

What really stood out though was the staff. Everyone was really friendly and patient

Overall, it’s a chill spot with great service and even better smoothies. I’d definitely recommend it if you’re in the area or just craving something healthy and tasty.“

“Amazing place, delicious food, fun atmosphere and reasonable prices“

“Being Armenian my expectations were high. Apricot Stone far exceeded what I was expecting. Service (Ani) was excellent and all of the help was very friendly. I highly recommend it.“

“I was missing my partner, who is Turkish and lives in Turkey. So I went to Ramiz to reminisce of my times in Turkey with her. I arrived pretty early on a Saturday evening, so the restaurant had few people. I splurged on the Mixed Grill entree. Service was spectacular and the food was really good! (I can’t really publicly say better than my Turkish Partner’s cooking. ?)“

“Everything was perfect from beginning to end, from the reserved table, the service, the food. Because we were a party of 2 and ordered many courses , the server staggered our food so we could enjoy every morsel We started with soup. I had the lentil my husband had Moroccan Bean. Both were so wonderful we we started sharing. I was looking forward to the taramasalata all day. When it came to the table along with warmed pita bread it did not disappoint. On to the falafel: which were some of the best we ever sampled. Not finished yet, next we had lamb kafta. Which were succulent and prepared to perfection. Our final course was the superb moussaka. The eggplant melted in our mouth with each bite and the ground beef and béchamel enhanced the flavor to a higher level Our only disappoint was we didn't have room left for dessert. There is always next time! Another wonderful dining experience at Norma’s!“

“I can’t say enough about how great this food was! Had it last night for dinner and just finished my left overs today. Everything was so fresh and full of flavor. We will most definitely be ordering again!“

“The New York Gyro Truck at 41st and Walnut St. in Philadelphia is a hidden gem that serves up some truly mouthwatering fare! From their flavorful chicken over rice to their crispy, delicious falafel, every bite is a delight. The food is not only scrumptious, but the friendly and welcoming staff make the experience even better. Whether you're a student at Penn or just passing by, this food truck is a must-visit for a satisfying and tasty meal on the go. Don't forget to grab a refreshing soda to complete your meal!“

“Great middle eastern food“

“Extremely friendly and welcoming. Food was delicious and wouldn’t hesitate to visit again when in Philly.“

“I would give this place an infinite amount of stars if it were possible. When me and my friends lived around here, we loved hitting this Halal cart up on Friday nights. We even made the occasional pilgrimage there once we lived in separate places around Philly.Majit (and later Salman) always whipped up the freshest food, had a smile on their face, and were glad to talk with us. Salt of the earth.If you like Halal you owe it to yourself to get in front of the Fishtown Planet Fitness and order a lamb/falafel combo platter with your sauces of choice.“

“Interesting menu. The food is absolutely delicious. I highly recommend if you’re in Philadelphia. The Turkish dumplings are AMAZING !“

“Highly recommended for good eats!“

“The halal gyro express cart at the corner of 13th and chestnut is by far the best halal food I’ve ever had. The chicken and rice is out of this world and the white sauce is the best I’ve ever had. Keep up the good work!!!“

“We catered a dinner at home to a wide range of guests and it hit the mark for everyone. I can’t wait to use them for take out more often!! The seasonal homemade hummus has never been a disappointment but this time it was unreal. Looking forward to our next meal.“

“Best most authentic shawerma in the entire northeast. Must try!“

“This place was a short walk from my hotel so I came here a few times. It's named Ed's on the outside. They have halal options and the food was great! I tried a variety of stuff from here and each one did not disappoint. If you want a good halal cheesesteak come here. It's always busy and filled with college kids. The staff is also nice!“

“Lovely place,Gd Location Nice Corner Store. Lots Of Dates And Veriety Fresh Meat And Even Hv Mini Diner With Tasty Lamb ,Middle East Cuisine Eatery.Went Here @End 2012. Reminds me Supermarket in Mekkah Itself, And ThenIt Is Just Across The Road To Masjid👍👍👍“

“The flavor is on point!! No denying that. But, if you want a better value for your $, then I'd recommend PITA CHIP... ESPECIALLY FOR THE LAMB!! Naya's lamp is a beef & lamb meatball, however Pita Chip you get actual cubes of Lamb. In a wrap, you also can get a variety of hummas and rice. Pita's wraps are bigger (more meat and as much toppings as you'd like. NAYA is great value for Bowls and the are heavy handed with Chicken portions“

“Had the Coconut curry chicken and it was the bomb. Real good authentic Indian food. Spicy but tolerable. Enjoyed it very much.“

“very tasty shawarma I like it ❤️“
