Falafel near East Rutherford, NJ

“Great food , great prices. Friendly welcoming staff. the classic shawarma sandwich and falafel sandwich are delicious. do yourself a favor and get the mint lemonade, you'll be hooked :)“

“Great spot in a crowded neighborhood filled with bougie restaurants. Got the chicken shawarma sandwich, which was easy to grab and take on a stroll to Brooklyn Bridge Park. I'm not crazy about Mediterranean food, but this was very enjoyable.“

“Reliable. Literally a fixture in the park. Prices have gone up but that’s everywhere. I remember when it was 4/5 dollars. Now it’s 9! Fine.
Portion size was good. Makes it worth it.
Hot sauce is spicey.
Can of soda only 1 dollar.
No line. Plenty of bench seating in the park.“

“Love the food“

“I ordered 100 falafel sandwiches for a camp supporting refugees . Not only was the food amazing The owner delivered the food himself . I have lived in Hell’s Kitchen over 25 years and I just found my new spot for amazing food and service ! Thank you“

“Delicious, quick, and such nice staff! I love the veggies and the pickles along with the wonderfully herbaceous hot sauce!“

“We have been getting take-out from Falafel Hut for many many years. It’s a great option for a reasonably priced meal. We have had a variety of items from the menu and have been happy with them. We have also ordered for parties / group gathering and everyone was happy with the meal.

Kid-friendliness: If your kid wants chicken fingers and fries, their’s are good.“

“I ate here several times during my visit to NY love the food“

“Presented with Very warm welcoming staff with a fresh crispy Falafel on the start.
I ordered chicken over rice with salad
No doubt salad was fresh and white sauce made it awesome in tasty but chicken wasn’t cook well. Could be better but over all joyful experience .“

“Delicious Falafel and Friendly Staff
The Chik Shop serves some of the best falafel I’ve ever had — crispy, fresh, and packed with flavor. The wraps and bowls are generous, and the toppings and sauces take everything to the next level. The staff is warm and welcoming, and you can tell they care about what they do. Highly recommend for a quick, tasty, and satisfying meal!“

“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!“

“Ordered the Manhattan signature sandwich. Although it wasn’t my all-time fave falafel, it was still very very good! The pita got a bit soggy in transit, so it fell apart slightly upon eating it. Disappointed they didn’t sell fries despite having it listed on their website’s menu. Small, dimly light interior with limited, covered outdoor seating. Accepted credit card (although there’s a 4% discount for cash purchases).“

“My husband gets their food all the time for lunch and yesterday I met up with him while he was on break. I got the falafel plate and my god! The falafels were so fresh and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, the veggies were fresh and really brought life to the dish. The owner and his son were so nice. I cannot recommend enough!“

“this store is very clean and all team work is friendly with customer and I try all kind of food is very good everyday I buy my lunch and dinner from this store and I sent all my friends to this restaurant Kings falafel and all of them like this store because the food is very good“

“I came to Holy Pita and ordered the chicken shawarma, and it was absolutely delicious! The chicken was juicy, perfectly spiced, and wrapped in fresh pita with all the right toppings. Every bite was full of flavor.

The staff was warm and welcoming, and the service was fast. The restaurant itself is clean and has a great, casual vibe.

If you’re in the mood for authentic Mediterranean food, this is the spot. The chicken shawarma alone is worth the trip!“

“Really good food and service. Falafel and garlic is sauce is out of this world.“

“Good Luck � My Friend“

“Shlomo's kindness and generosity is endless! Not only has he offered to participate in a PTO sponsored dine to donate today, but when our school staff ordered lunch to support, he refused payment and insisted the payment be donated to the PTO in full! He gets plenty of love and all is deserved! Thank you Shlomo and Gyro Grill for not only delicious food but for your continued acts of love in the Wayne community!“

“This place was fantastic! Over the years I've been here maybe 10 times. I never complain when my friends or family suggest this place to eat for dinner. The waitresses are always a pleasure to deal with. They assist me well when I ask for all my extras and meal modifications. The chef ?‍? in the back is on point. I wish GYRO TOWN long-term success in these challenging economic times

Parking: Paid street parking can be a bit full sometimes, causing me to circle once or twice. I typically never have to walk more than a half a block.“

“1st time Me and hubby went there. The place is very clean and the guy is so humble. We ordered Lamb Shawarma and Beef Steak ......take out and had to wait few minutes, Ummm Taste is so yammiiiiiiiiiiiiiii, Also bough Baklava. Surely we will visit again, Thank you.“

“Absolutely amazing food and magi drink is yummmmmy!“

“Love the falafels from this place. They have so many toppings to choose. You can get a platter or gyro with either lamb, chicken beef or falafel. I only get the falafels but they are banging. Then you can pick lettuce, tomato, onions, peppers, olives, pickles, and/or chickpeas. It's delicious 😋 I only took off one start for atmosphere because their tv is so loud lol always a turn off for me. Cheers“

“Everything was really, really, really good, and fresh, especially the salad, meats cooked to order, the falafel. We also loved the hummus, babaganoush, and fluffy pita. Service was super friendly and accommodating to a ton of small special requests. Not sure why they gave us some flat store bought pita with our order and some delicious, fluffy, and fresh made (maybe they were running out?), but overall a really delightful surprise.“

“Benjy was very kind, and straight to the point. The place is chalov yisroel, and the pizza was surprisingly delicious. The store is a bit outdated but in my opinion is reminiscent of the old pizza shops we went to as kids in a cozy kind of way. Benjy, keep being you.

Dietary restrictions: Kosher, cholov yisroel, pas yisroel.

Kid-friendliness: There are highchairs, and the owner will cut the pies in as many peices as you want.“

“Best food and best people. The cook and the older gentleman taking our order love their jobs and really took care of us. Both the chicken and beef shawarma were cooked to perfection, with the right amount of juiciness and charred flavor. Even the bread was great. The man taking our order was very welcoming and hospitable. Perfect neighborhood halal spot.“

“1. Phenomenal pizza, baked based upon your desired style/taste. The "undercarriage" is perfection!!!!

2. The ambiance was crafted in a significantly casual yet comfortable fashion. You feel good as soon as you take a seat. They are also constructed for a high capacity crowd.

3. One of the greatest features of all...., SERVICE! An Absolutely enjoyable experience. Warm greetings, and phenomenal all-around-service can be expected. I had an extremely positive experience, the very first time I walked in.

An overall, unbelievable experience can be expected!“

“Spectacular service, immaculate price, and dumbfounding taste. 100/100 out of 100/100!!! They even gave me free food because they ran out of one burger?!?!? Have you ever been some where they’ve giving out free food just to satisfy the customer. Will come again!“

“The falafel here is superb! It’s light and crispy with a full flavor. I usually order the falafel platter that comes with red quinoa, hummus, pickles, Israeli salad and cabbage. It also comes with pita but I’m GF so I opt out. They also have Dr. Brown’s sodas which is the icing on the cake! The owner and staff and friendly and want to make sure you have the best falafel in town! Highly recommend!

Vegetarian options: They offer falafel, sabich and cauliflower“

“I crave Mamouns, but unfortunately, I haven't been there in years. I walked down from 16th Street and was famished when I arrived.
As deeelish as I had remembered. You can't get a better Falafel anywhere in New York. Everything is so fresh!“

“all i can say is i went here yesterday and got a falafel wrap and have not stopped talking about it - i've said "moist" more than i'd ever care to admit. it's incredible. i went back again today and they served straight fire yet again. looks like a humble take out spot but let me tell you ... the aura in this place is off the charts. for the price, too? wild. i just moved to the area and will be here once a week.“

“Fantastic Food! Crowded at lunch time which is always a good sign. Chicken shawarma was fantastic. Make sure to get the garlic sauce! Right by the Bedford L!

Vegetarian options: Falafel, Arabic salad, chickpea salad, pickles, etc.“

“I’ve been going to Ibby’s since they first opened. If you want good food, this is the place to go. Their falafels are like no other!! They have the best falafels in N.J. Hands down!“

“Overall rating: 4.9
Paid: $9 with Tip

OMG SO GOOD. AND AFFORDABLE. Cash only and they accept Zelle. The staff is also sooooo friendly especially in such a small area. It definitely put a smile on my face that I wasn’t expecting during my lunch break. Highly recommend! I tried to go back recently to take a picture but I can’t find it anymore 😭 does anyone know if they moved?“

“Good food 🥘 good service ❤️“

“Whenever I am in the area, I have to get my fix!! The Lamb Gyro Platter and Chicken Gyro Platter are so good. You are going to want to order both. I wish I had taken a picture. The last time I was here was in Nov 2021, my flight got in after midnight, so I didn't get to my hotel until close to 2AM. This was one of the few places open, and the food was so good. The Hummus & Pita is delicious as well! You just can not go wrong with this place!“

“As a newbie creating my own shwarma meal, I appreciated the countermans help and recommendation. Excellent meal! Tasty, filling. I’m so happy I went!“

“We were visiting the area and were drawn here by the amazing smells. So many different choices of slices were available. My daughter chose cheese and a pasta topped slice. I chose ricotta/spinach and a mushroom. This place makes the best pizza we’ve ever had!“

“thank you so much for feeding us at Long Island Jewish Forest Hills Hospital . love the authenticity, it's like being back home in my native land of Israel!“
