“Vegetarian options: My search for 'Kunefe' that would taste authentic just like the one I had in Türkiye years ago has finally concluded; it was so good that I am forced to put out this statement - "This is the best Kunefe I have even had in the US of A!" For main course I had vegetable casserole.“

“Great tasting food. Good choices of food. The bartender rock. The piano man is superb. I give it a"9".“

“The Hummus is the best in Morris County!! HIGHLY recommend you give it a try, but do not blame me if you’re addicted to it afterwards“

“First time coming here since I started a mediterranean diet. I found this place on google. I got a classic gyro. Couldn’t even take a pic because it was so darn good. Service was fast:

If you do come here; there is an extra charge for credit card vs cash. Overall, my new favorite spot! Love this place already and can’t wait to try the extra menu!“

“locale molto bello ed elegante. cucina ottima. straconsigliato!“

“Wait service was excellent! Food is delicious.“

“We’ve become “regulars” at this wonderful restaurant, soon after they became kosher. We visit regularly, and get takeout pretty often. The food is great! It’s consistent and just SO tasty. And the staff… Absolutely terrific!!!“

“What a delight! From the minute we walked through the front doors, the music, the art and the hospitality of the sweet host made us feel like we were in for a treat. Top-notch service and the food was delicious - terrific French food without feeling too heavy. Do not sleep on the soup! The menu changes daily, but give whatever soup is on the menu a try. Served table side in a chic teapot, the layered flavors in our butternut squash soup were perfection. All i can say is if you haven't been to Bistro d'Azur yet, give it a try. If you haven't been lately, this is a sign to put it back on your radar.“

“We got the combination platter for two. More than enough food. Everything was delicious and the staff was friendly.“

“First time at Frappe Joe and it was soooo good the coffee was amazing. I got a turkey bacon egg and cheese bagel and omg just so good!! And their Raspberry Crumbcake. And I believe the owner who helped me bc I looked so lost was soo nice to me and figured out my coffee order and everything. Super nice staff and good food, coffee and pastry!“

“I have known Adolfo for a long time and not only He’s a great Person but an outstanding Chef and in his latest endeavor nothing has changed . Great quality food with plenty of care and dedication to his craft and unbelievable ambience inside the Restaurant with fun and friendly Staff all around . I highly recommend it to give it a try …“

“Had a terrible experience today. They gave me the wrong sandwich. Tried to call them to send me a new one but all you get is a voicemail. Emailed them and even messaged them on Instagram and they never responded. So I was stuck at work all day without any food or any reimbursement“

“A Greek experience away from home. All are super authentic from the deserts to the coffee.“

“I’m a little annoyed I can only review Ambeli once - we eat here all the time and they’re FANTASTIC

These guys are the real deal, Greek owned and operated, great food, and they even have live music some nights

Do something nice for yourself: get dinner at Ambeli. And bring some friends ;)“

“Great food and great people. Highly recommend them!“

“Went here for a cheaper food option after finding out I had to stay later at work than expected. ordered the combo plate which was falfel, rice, a pita, hummus, and baba ghanoush. The hummus was a little salty but aside from that the food was very good. The hummus was clearly fresh and home made with hints of lemon. Similarly, the baba ghanoush was pleasant with a nice smoke to it. For 11 dollars you cannot complain

Vegetarian options: A large section of the menu is plant based, focusing on falafel and Mediterranean spreads. It is also likely one would be able to sub out meat in dishes for falafel“

“Food is fresh & tasty. Staff are very nice too.“

“Excellent service. What’s the owner name“

“After a tasty round of appetizers including tangy baked Fava beans, creamy smooth hummus, baba ghanoush and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside falafel, we feasted on two lamb dishes, one of which was perfectly grilled, and an order of couscous with vegetables. I still remember today how great everything tasted. Service was friendly and efficient and the decor included lamps and accessories imported from Morocco. Portions were generous and they provide containers for the leftovers. You can only eat so much! Highly recommended.“

“Place is great! 5/5 recommend“

“Food was awesome and fresh ! Service was even better ! Definitely coming back to try more things!“

“Excellent place and delicious food“

“This is a great little café/diner right next to the Westfield train station. We are fairly new to Westfield and went there for the first time a couple of weeks ago. We were wowed by the wonderful customer service of our waitress, Cindy. She was very attentive, provided great order suggestions and also brought over their delicious housemade hot sauce to go along with our eggs. All the food we ordered was wonderful, including the short stack of chocolate chip pancakes, the egg and cheese sandwich on a hard roll, and the Florentine omelette. The chef (maybe owner?), Ash even stopped by later on towards the end of our meal to check on how everything was. We meant to write this review right after that, but then never got around to it and when we went back today a few weeks later, we realized how much we needed to write this up! This time Kirsten and Cindy both helped us out, and Cindy remembered us by our orders from the last time even though we had only been here one time- very impressive and shows a great attention to detail and customer service. Ash came by also, and it was clear he remembered us as well. The food was fresh and tasty yet again (we got the French toast, egg and cheese sandwich, and Greek omelette this time) and the prices are great. This place is a gem and is definitely becoming one of our go-to spots!“

“My falafel platter could probably be submitted for entry to MOMA (Museum of Modern Art) as the first thing I noticed was how perfectly plated my meal was with a creative drizzle of tahini across the falafel as a final touch. Nothing I would have expected at this nondescript Mediterranean Hala kitchen restaurant in a small strip mall but which now has me wanting to come back to try their other home made mediterranean dishes.Everything was delicious and made from scratch as the owner provided more details about the preparation of the various sauces and condiments that made up this dish. Interesting was a pickled eggplant which I had never had, it was quite spicy but I like exploring the flavors it added to my falafel plate. The falafels themselves were quite dark brown in color with a contrasting bright green and soft inside, the combination of crunch and fresh soft chickpeas and spices I really enjoyed.The inside of 22 Bites Halal feels new with a huge chalkboard of colorful menu items written in chalk by hand behind the counter - a refreshing change from the expected plastic sign. Seating is new, clean with a mix of several tables and one longer table up front in front of the window.There were a number of really interesting menu items I can't wait to try like the 'Fat 22', 'Fat Buffalo', 'Rocket Platter' and 'Fat Rocket' which is a fried Tilapia sandwich with fries, lettuce, tomato and tartar sauce - yum!!!There is also a family platter which you can order with chicken or falafel or a mix of both and comes with a salad, fries and some other goodies along with a large soda. It seems to be quite large and would probably feed several people but I didn't enquire as to the exact number of servingsDefinitely worth a stop for a delicious dine-in lunch or dinner, takeout or a take-home family meal.“
