“GERMAN DONER KEBAB - AN ENLIGHTENMENT If you're from Berlin, it feels like there's a kebab store on every other corner. So I can recognize and judge a kebab when I see it. Even just leaving Berlin and Brandenburg, the kebab experience changes within Germany. The further you get away from Berlin, the worse the kebabs get. Some time ago in New York, I discovered one or two places trying to make a kebab. Unfortunately, I have not yet been able to find a proper kebab in New York, despite the name kebab. What was being sold was called a kebab, but had very little to do with a kebab and tasted even less like a kebab. All the more enlightenment then... the recommendation of a friend living in Brooklyn. "German Doner Kebab" in Brooklyn. And then the first kebab there since 2018 here in New York. I can't even describe how happy I was. It looked like a kebab, it tasted like a kebab and came pretty close to a kebab from Berlin. Really well made. Incl. tax 12.51 dollars is a bit steep, but still good value for New York. The portion was good and filling. Everything is really fresh and well seasoned. The bread was just as it should be, thin and crispy. This was pretty much the best kebab I've had in a very, very long time (with the exception of one visit to Berlin). I will definitely go back there again. GERMAN DONER KEBAB - EINE ERLEUCHTUNG Wenn man aus Berlin kommt, hat man gefühlt an jeder zweiten Ecke einen Dönerladen. Ich kann also einen Döner erkennen und beurteilen, wenn ich ihn sehe. Allein schon Berlin und Brandenburg verlassend wird das mit dem Döner innerhalb von Deutschland anders. Je weiter man sich von Berlin entfernt, desto schlechter werden die Döner. In New York entdeckte ich schon vor einiger Zeit den einen oder anderen Anbieter mit dem Versuch, einen Döner zu machen. Bisher konnte ich leider in New York trotz Bezeichnung Döner keinen ordentlichen Döner entdecken. Das was da verkauft wurde, heißt zwar Döner, hatte mit Döner aber recht wenig zu tun und schmeckte noch viel weniger nach einem Döner. Um so mehr dann die Erleuchtung... die Empfehlung eines Freundes in Brooklyn lebend. "German Doner Kebab" in Brooklyn. Und dort dann der erste Döner seit 2018 hier in New York. Ich kann gar nicht beschreiben, wie sehr ich mich gefreut hatte. Es sah aus wie ein Döner, es schmeckte wie ein Döner und kam schon recht nah an einen Döner aus Berlin heran. Richtig gut gemacht. Incl. Tax 12,51 Dollar ist zwar sportlich, aber für New York wiederum preiswert. Die Portion ordentlich und sättigend. Wirklich alles frisch und gut gewürzt. Das Brot genau so wie es sein muss, dünn und knusprig. Also das war seit sehr sehr langer Zeit so ziemlich der beste Döner (mit Ausnahme einem Besuch in Berlin), den ich seit langer Zeit gegessen habe. Dahin kehre ich auf alle Fälle wieder zurück. -------------------------------------------------“

“Service was great! Didn't wait long either.“

“I can’t say it has amazing food because all I have ever eaten was the fabulous fried chicken sandwich. Great atmosphere, friendly service and an incredible chicken sandwich!“

“I work in the mall where this Charlie’s location is and I always set my order with one of their employees named Dulce. She’s extremely polite and nice. She always greets me with a smile and remembers my order. Kudos to her she deserves a raise“

“As a student, I rarely find places where I can eat really well within my small budget.
Their set menu gave me a full, delicious meal at a price that felt honestly made for us.
Great taste should not be a luxury, and this restaurant proves it every single day.“

“I’ll give this location 10/10 in all aspects 👏 staff are amazing, very nice and professional. My sandwich was top tier and they strictly respected my food restrictions. I highly recommend this place and will definitely keep going there“

“The Pizza Pretzel was so delicious. The lady at the register was friendly and attentive to the job. She nailed the order spot on. The price is fairly cheap, but what can I say, it's the economy we live in. Delicious pretzels and great service. A must visit in the mall.“

“I was excited to see that It’s WAAO! opened a location at American Dream. The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. I ordered the chicken patacón combo with a banana shake, and both were delicious. The patacón took a little while to prepare so they gave me a free side of fries (unless that was already part of the combo lol either way, I appreciated it)!

The seating area is nice and a great place to enjoy your meal. The employees kept checking in to make sure everything was good and to see if I needed anything like napkins. My only complaint was that there was some loud construction happening at the ice rink, but that’s totally out of their control. Overall, great service and great food. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“My son enjoys going to this restaurant whenever we are at the American Dream Mall. We ordered two vegan burger (Karl’s Deluxe) with fries, one regular and one beast style.pros: you get nice size portions, service is rather quick,and I appreciate that you can order a vegan option for just about any style burger. Our burgers were tasty, well seasoned. Cons: a little pricey and we didn’t care for the fries.“

“I ordered a baked potato with cheese and bacon and it was not what I expected. I asked the male manager on duty if it was possible to change it and even though they were pretty much closing up by then, he offered me what was available and gave me extra and was very kind. Managers like this that care about their customers satisfaction is what keeps people coming and a business moving forward.“

“Excelente. Sano . Buen ambiente“

“There were two guys working when we ordered. One at the register and one making the food. We had a pretty large order and a lot of our items had modifications. Everything was made exactly how we ordered it, which was awesome bc that doesn't always happen at other locations.“

“Super convenient, friendly staff, good management. Food is good... it's Papa John's, all the complaints are unwarranted. It used to be the BEST late night option, unfortunately complaints from the neighbors forced the 12am closing time.“
