Lebanese Restaurants near Edgewater, NJ

“Izzy is always accommodating & nice. I’ve always had a good food experience whenever I go.“

“the appetizers were stunning, great service and great atmosphere, friendly and professional waiters“

“The best authentic Lebanese food in NYC. A must-try. All there food is fresh and delicious and very generous quantities. Their Shawarma is soooo good, you can eat it in bowl or a sandwich with lots of yummy toppings. I also tried their falafel and it was super good!“

“We are frequent customers, but today was truly something else. Normally our visits are not this special, but Amelia completely changed our experience. This Midtown location is my favorite, and even though we live in New Jersey, we still make this trip to Auzatar every 3 months because it’s always worth the trip.

But today stood out in the best way. Amelia went above and beyond with her service — she was kind, patient, and incredibly attentive. She made us feel valued and comfortable from start to finish.

We love Amelia so much that we will be coming back with friends and family — but only on the days Amelia is here! She is truly exceptional and made our visit unforgettable.“

“Great food it was beautiful outside quiet. I enjoyed my dinner I recommend everyone to go.“

“Unique blend of Mediterranean and Mexican cuisine; the dips were all great and the watermelon salad was very refreshing. Chicken Shawarma Burrito was filling and had all the spices you want but could have used a bit of salsa to add moisture“

“If you’re looking for a great experience paired with delicious food, this is the place you need to be! The owner was so personable, the staff was so kind and attentive, the food was delicious, and the super show was SO fun for our large group! I highly recommend this place over all other restaurants I’ve gone to in Iguacu!“

“First of all, my chicken sandwich was SO flavourful, as well as my avocado zaartar salad. Thank you!“

“I love the shawarma sandwich I bought , it was so delicious tasty and the good thing of this place, is that it has small section to buy groceries,like Arab bread which is so delicious.“

“Really cozy little spot! The place is small but super welcoming.
The pancakes are huge — definitely something to share. They come with a good amount of cheese, though the batter could be a bit moister. There’s this aromatic flavor that makes them a little different — depends on your taste, but I kinda liked it.
The chicken sandwich was awesome, and the service was great too. Everyone there was super nice and friendly.“

“Been here twice and the food is omg fabulous and so aromatic . It’s also BYOB with no cork fee. Lovely like cozy spot in East Village. Shared this mixed grill platter with a friend and was just enough to fill us up.“

“We ordered so many incredible signature dishes. The lamb moussaka was 5 stars! To really test them we ordered one of the best lahmanchoun’s we’ve tasted in NY! Cozy atmosphere, attentive waitstaff, Momo JC definitely exceeded our expectations!“

“I had a wonderful lunch here today. The Lebanese food was absolutely delicious and very well prepared. The staff were incredibly kind and took the time to explain the menu, which made the experience even better. I will definitely be coming back!“

“I’ve been going to the Tripoli since I was a child (1975, so I was 2 years old). At first, the draw was their authentic pastries (their Birds Nests are TOP NOTCH!!!). To this day, I love their traditional Lebanese cuisine (their humus, babaghanouj and tabouli are AMAZING as is their shish-kabob and chicken shishtaouk). If ever you find yourself on the border between Brooklyn Heights and Cobble Hill Brooklyn (NYC), I can’t recommend them enough!!!“

“I had a great catering experience with Semkeh. We had to feed 50 people and everybody loved the food, especially the chocolate drizzled baklava! They delivered the food on time and everything tasted delicious. I highly recommend this place and the prices are very reasonable too.“

“Hi! Stopped into the UES’ Lava Shawarma for the second time, and everything was - once again - excellent. The two young men who work behind the counter there (at least in the early evening hours) were: polite, friendly, professional and hardworking. The environment is welcoming, and the food is so yummy. Both times I’ve been there, I ordered the falafel wrap. It was super delicious — and full of fiber and protein, without feeling heavy on my tummy; I might just become a more regular customer, even though I’m trying to be mindful about my food budget these days. : ) (Their pricing is affordable to most, I simply mean that as a general comment.) Thank you for taking such good care of me, gentlemen! Stay warm and well-fed, Kat PS The only thing I'd humbly suggest, if I may, would be to put out a few containers of olive oil for customers -- to drizzle on their falafel goodness.“

“I always order food to go at this place. One of the most delicious koftas - beef and lamb both amazing. I call and in 20 min it is ready for pick up. My friends and me often order it to eat in a park before a long walk. Extremely tasty and an enjoyable! Also we love fried cheese there.“

“Great Persian food... yum!“

“Google maps got us here with no problem, but the restaurant name has changed.

I ended up sampling four different appetizers. They were all excellent. The service was attentive without being intrusive. I don't know if the noise level is an issue as only one other table was occupied while we were there.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ great time as always“

“Me encantó !!! Comida libanesa deliciosa y exquisita ♥️“

“Want to make your pallet dance? Of course you do! Boutros is the place to go from their tantalizing cocktails to their original baba ghanoush and falafel you’ll be simply amazed. Old school, traditional recipes with a twist of new flare. Mikey is a wizard for creating his cocktails. I had the pleasure of trying two of them that he created after thinking about them for 12 years and I highly recommend them the Garlic Gibson and the Bitter tree, both are amazing. Allen, who is the chef and owner and named this quaint little place after his dad will delight you with his specialties my Sister and I had the mushroom hummus. The short rib wraps are beautiful salad and baba ghanoush to name a few. Hurry up, you won’t be disappointed!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I grabbed the Falafel Bowl from Naya - 39th & Broadway through MealPal and wow, it’s a flavor bomb! The creamy tahini and zesty spicy smoky red sauce kicked the fresh cabbage slaw and pickled cucumber up a notch. So savory and spiced perfectly—highly recommend!“

“First time trying this Lebanese food chain and it exceeds my expectations!

Location: It is located along Madison Avenue behind St. Patricks cathedral. There are few seatings inside.

Service: it is a step by step process. Not that much interaction cause you just have to tell them which choices you want.

Food: I got the Naya Bowl. And it was the best. It is a step by step process so here is what I got.

STEP 1: you can choose naya roll, naya bowl or naya salad. I chose the bowl cause it has rice with vermicelli.

STEP 2: choose 2 meats. I chose beef shawarma which is super tender and flavorful. The second meat was kafta lamb kebab, it was 2 pieces but it was delicious, very moist inside its like a small patty burger.

STEP 3: choose toppings. I chose hummus, tahini, cabbage, tomatoes, onions, cucumber, feta cheese, chopped romaine.

I got also pistachio baklava and their warm feta bread on the side. This is a must!

Price rating: 7/10 price range. It was not bad, I paid $19 for naya bowl, baklava and bread.

I will definitely come back here to try the other choices.“

“This spot deserves recognition for consistent quality. Each dish represents quality ingredients. The team was prompt, effective, and friendly. NAYA offers the complete range of foods I like. I genuinely like this restaurant and you'll like it too.“

“one of my fav restaurants in NYC“

“Something different, I really enjoyed it.“

“We ordered for the first time tonight from Sammy, former proprietor of JuJu’s Bagels now transformed into El Toum. We ordered 4 items and they were ready for pickup in less than 25 minutes. The Mixed Kebab platter, Kofta Burger with fries, Falafel Sandwich with extra tahini sauce, and El Toum Appetizer were refreshingly homemade, tasted delicious, and proved outstanding bangs for the buck. More than enough food for a family of four with leftovers. This is a very welcome addition to a neighborhood missing this kind of fare. I highly recommend supporting this local business. Some of the best falafel and tabouli I’ve tasted in quite some time too!“

“Wonderful service…excellent food“

“Excellent food and service Good environment.“

“amazing food. love it. go here often. wonderful staff. beautiful patio“

“I lack the vocabulary to properly praise this restaurant. The experience here defies expectations. All taste elements complement each other. The staff performed with remarkable skill. The workers were efficient and the cuisine was superb! Another visit is planned.“

“Naya never misses. Every time I come to eat here it never disappoints. Very generous portions and great tasty food! The manager, Maria, is super friendly and helpful she made my day. Her staff is amazing too! The store is also kept very clean. They will definitely see me coming back more.“

“This restaurant adds something missing from our neighborhood. The food satisfies and the service impresses. Her cheerful approach sincerely transformed my experience. They showcase their specialty effectively. I believe you'll enjoy this spot.“

“The food is very good. We placed an order on the website and several locations came up. I live in Chelsea and chose the “Chelsea location for pickup. Turns out the Broadway and 25th location was being called “Garment District”. The “Chelsea” address actually Is in the Garment District on 7th Avenue. This is a national chain, but anyone in NYC knows the difference. I should have looked more closely at the address. First World problems, I know- but I’m putting it out there. We went to the wrong place and had to go to the right place with the wrong location name. They should relabel.
Very good food though, thanks!“

“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!“

“Best restaurant I've ever found in midtown (and I've been here for a few years). . . . FIVE STARS! after having Tawook Chicken or Lamb Kabob for dinner I like to take home some Mouhamara and some hummus, especially on a Friday, for snacking. Balade helps get me through the weekend. 😄 I'm sharing a pic of some of Balade's fresh, delicious, Mouhamara on a diced up baked red potato. I had this at home this morning. It's also great on pita, or a cracker, or a slice of toast, or . . .“

“Excellent food, large portions and very reasonably priced. I highly recommend NAYA!“

“The best thing is the size of the servings. Ten dollars really fill you up, even when you are hungry. The falafel and the hummus are above average. Just don't ask them to spice it up with jalapeños; they are raw and just don't fit as a condiment. I wish they would use harsissa instead.“

“Great middle eastern spot! The food was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The shawarma was perfectly seasoned, tender, and juicy easily some of the best I've had. The garlic sauce is a must-try, and the portions were generous for the price. Staff was very friendly and had quick service! Always nice to find a spot with actual good authentic food.“

“1/3/26 chosen this place for dinner. I got the chicken shawarma bowl and you get to add all kinds of stuff too!
It was good, quick and easy for a meal.
Seating in the main bar area.
It's a cool spot. Great people watching.“

“Omg! I love this place, too delicious 😋“
