“AMAZING FOOD!!! Makes the BEST schnitzel ever!!“

“Goes this place doesn't have a higher rating on Google is beyond me. The falefal is a 5 o ut of 5 The rice is the best I've ever had. It's both soft and creamy almost! I'm having the lamb shish kaboblan special. It is juicy and not chewy. Nothing is ever over salted here or overcooked the many times that I've been here. I even drive here for lunch 20 minutes away, even though there's Middle Eastern places a few minutes away from my job. The beef liver is great. Here the baba ganoush and hummus are tasty. Not oily. Very good lentil soup. It really tastes homemade!“

“Jackie Smalls – My New Favorite Brunch Spot!

I don’t usually go out for brunch because most places serve the same old eggs and pancakes, but Jackie Smalls completely changed my mind. This has to be my favorite breakfast/brunch spot I’ve tried!

I ordered the Freekeh Bowl, Grains of Nazareth, and French Toast, and every dish was incredibly fulfilling and well-balanced. But let me tell you—the French Toast was hands down the best I’ve ever had. They use sourdough bread infused with rose, which adds such a unique flavor. The whipped cream on the side was unbelievably fresh (unlike anything I’ve had before!), and the maple syrup had just the right amount of sweetness.

If you haven’t been to Jackie Smalls yet, you need to give it a try. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed!“

“Went today for the first time, wonderful staff and the food was incredible. Great size portions, every part of our meal was delicious. Cannot wait to go back again. Well worth the ride from Ramsey. NJ“

“Should be best best restaurants list in NJ!“

“We went to Rola’s for the first time Saturday night and it will definitely not be our last time. The place is so cozy perfect for a date night or for dinner with family. The food is amazing! We tried the Rolas appetizer spread platter delicious, the lentil soup delicious, the kufta kebab delicious, the lamb chops delicious! Everything was perfect! We can’t wait to be back. Definitely don’t hesitate everyone should try Rola’s you will NOT be disappointed.“

“Excellent quality food..easily the best greek/Mediterranean restaurant around. We had babaganoush, sauteed octopus and mixed grill for two. The portions are just right and there was not a single dish that wasnt 10/10. Great service. The place was quiet around 6pm on a Friday and then just exploded with customers. We are happy we just discovered this little gem. And the cherry on top - very inexpensive for what you get. It's tough to beat combo“

“Was looking for Mediterranean food for my wife and I on a casual evening out and we were not disappointed. Super friendly/helpful staff, wonderful atmosphere, and a wonderful selection of food. My wife and I got a bowl and we both loved it. If you are looking for a counter style Mediterranean place to eat this is a fantastic choice! All the food is made fresh. My wife ordered pita chips and falafel on the side and both were made fresh when we ordered. The pita chips were thick and super crispy. The falafel was incredibly moist too. Highly recommend!“

The bowls are SO customizable, and I love that I can choose exactly what I’m in the mood for. Their ingredients are always super fresh, and I can tell they put a lot of care into their food. I’m kind of addicted to their Grilled steak! The staff is always so friendly and they make the whole experience feel welcoming. I seriously can’t get enough of this place. If you haven’t tried it yet, you’re missing out! 100000/10 the absolute best!“

“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!“

Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for great cuisine in a warm, inviting atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!“

Kid-friendliness: Yeah

Wheelchair accessibility: I don't remember seeing wheelchair access.“
