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 :)“

“We came from Canada to New York and decided to try this place while we were in Brooklyn; and we’re really glad we did. It’s a great spot. The entrance door is beautiful, almost like an old European shop, which gives it a lot of charm. The owners are incredibly kind and friendly, genuinely some of the nicest people we’ve met. The food was amazing; honestly one of the best falafel sandwiches I’ve ever had, packed with fresh vegetables. The salad was also very tasty, and the prices are very reasonable. Highly recommended!“

“You're going to enjoy the atmosphere here. Workers here are so pleasant it adds to the fun experience. The meal was absolutely right. The meal execution and service delivery were excellent. I can't imagine valid criticism of this place.“

“Love the food“

“This is actually one of those 6-star places, because the food is so fresh and delicious. And it’s that rarest of endangered species in New York—a small business run by people who care and not a fast casual, slop-assembly factory.

Since it’s a hole in the wall kind of spot, it’s strictly to-go, but there are tables available in the indoor courtyard nearby—open to all.“

“We ordered 4 Catering trays for our hospital holiday potluck and the food was delicious! Mr. Wissam is such a nice person and very professional! Will definitely always order from him for all of our holiday potlucks! Thank you for the special delivery and special additional items. All of our staffed loved it and will come back with their families for more!“

“Quality of food is outstanding & FRESH ! The price is just right! Love this place!!!!“

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

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

“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 .“

“This is my favorite place in the Union Square area. I've been coming to this small family run shop for the falafel platter for over 15 years. The owner and son couldn't be more welcoming and the food is very fresh and tasty. It is also a great value for the money.“

“Amazing. Got the shawarma plate and it was loaded. Really appreciate the portions of meat and vegetables. Delicious toppings with hummus and tahini and cucumber and cabbage and eggplant etc. Highly recommend. You will be satisfied. Great, fast service too.“

“Mamoun’s Falafel is one of the tastiest, most reliable spots for a quick Middle Eastern bite, and it never disappoints. The falafel is crispy, flavorful, and super satisfying every single time, amazing sandwiches, which is why it is so easy to keep going back. After what feels like 100 visits, the place really feels like a favorite go-to for a fast, delicious meal.“

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

“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“

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

“I’m so happy my sister introduced me to this place. Anytime I’m hungry between work this is my go to. The food is yums and filling, pita tastes like it’s made fresh, and the customer service is above and beyond. Gives me smiles every time I head over there“

“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.“

“I’ve been meaning to come to this place to have their falafel. It’s a little bit of a walk from my work but I made the trek out today because I had some time, and I am very glad I did. They were incredibly kind to me and gave me a sample of their lentil soup, and their iced coffee was really good too. I was going to go to a fancy coffee place and I enjoyed Rakka’s iced coffee even more than I would have enjoyed the offerings at a specialty shop. I ordered a falafel sandwich and it was very good. Everything was super fresh. I asked about their lentil soup and they very kindly gave me a sample. It was delicious and I am now hooked, I’ll definitely be back soon. Give Rakka a try!!!!“

“Absolutely amazing food and magi drink is yummmmmy!“

“Amazing Mediterranean place in UWS/Columbia. Authentic food, beautiful music, friendly and welcoming staff and the chef! I love their chicken and lamb shawarma, lentils soup, and baklava. Feast for the soul and body! Recommend it to all my friends too!“

“Good Luck � My Friend“

“The kufta kebab platter was SO GOOD. The meat was so tender and packed with flavor. Service was attentive and efficient. If you want the kufta though it’s recommended that you call for pick up before you go because it takes about 15 min to prepare. Highly recommend if you’re craving halal food!!“

“Benjy is quite the character. We became best friends a little too quickly. Benjy asks a lot of questions if he has never seen you before….He was a detective or policeman years ago or something, you should probably ask him about it and I’m sure he will tell you.

He makes good pizza.

Only order whole pies, no slices.

He also has bourekas.

Everything is made to order.“

“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!“

“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!“

“So, so good; can’t wait to go back!! I had a pita pocket with a bunch of veggies. The worker went above and beyond to accommodate my and my friend’s (annoying) requests. Planned to get just one sandwich but couldn’t. It’s that good.“

“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!“

“After coming to the USA, this food truck gave me one of the best food experiences so far. I tried the falafel wrap and chicken over rice for the first time, and oh my God—the flavors were absolutely amazing!
It was my first time trying street food here, and it instantly won my heart. Fresh, perfectly seasoned, and so satisfying. On top of that, the person serving the food was extremely warm, friendly, which made the experience even better.
What started as a first try has now become a regular order for us. Highly recommended! 🌯🍗✨“

“Always a delicious meal at Mamoun’s. Proud patron for over 30 years. Never disappoints.“

“My friend and I were recommended this place by people in the area and it totally lived up to expectations. The food was delicious and a good-sized portion. We got take out and even though the store was busy, our food came out very fast and fresh. We loved it!“

“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!“

“Every time I've been here, the food has come to me within 8 minutes of me walking into the restaurant. There's always plenty of open seating with a quiet atmosphere and great music. Friendly employees and delicious food. Highly recommend!“

“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?“

“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!“

“ok yo shoutout to the gentleman who served me. super friendly, definitely makes every customer that walk in feel welcome. food BANGED and prices CHEAP im really just passing thru Newark but wowww that mix platter checked all the boxes. portion was hugeee. shoutout this spot 💪“

“These street carts were peppered all over NYC. Am unsure why certain carts have longer queues than the rest even though they were all from the same franchise. Nothing much to comment on the taste. I didn't like the mess on the plate which was heavily slathered in white sauce. Reasonably priced. Portions are huge.“

“Gyro King Restaurant offers delicious chicken & lamb over rice in a ckean environment.
The staff is friendly. Their portion size is huge & balanced.
It's great for students & people that need to grab & go.“

“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!“

“It’s clean , the food is fantastic the staff is friendly and prices are quite affordable.The outdoor dining is perfect.I absolutely love this place♥️“

“really good chicken over rice and shawarma rice plate!! loved the green curry sauce“

“Just had a felafel, one of many I’ve had at Mamoun’s since 1975, though only my second at this newer location. Was delicious and not crazy priced (is there a $3 felafel anywhere anymore?). My only issue? The lettuce and tomato was too cold. Cold is not what one expects when biting into a felafel.“
