“Great food and big portions. The chicken and gyro are always on point, and the white sauce is amazing. The manager gave really good service and made the experience even better. Super fast overall and solid prices. Definitely a go-to spot when you want something tasty and filling.“

“My new favorite restaurant!!! The food is amazing.“

“I had my 49th birthday dinner here and it was fantastic. The food was perfectly cooked, delicious, and fresh. The service was just as good along with nice environment where me and my family felt comfortable eating and trying new foods. Sabry’s restaurant gets an A+ rating.......“

“Fantabulous Ambience. Lively and lovely staff. Great food. Loved everything.“

“We loved the food! We loved everything, and we loved the food! We brought our mum who complains about all the food, and she loved the food - the chicken kebab with lentil puree, lamb pitza, pita, muhammara, ouzi, baklava :) We’ll be back!“

“solid spread - muhammara is a must. great dips and the chicken shawarma was really good. sweet potato and salmon were phenomenal as well. great flavor all round, smaller portions. really nice spot to catch up with friends and easier res to get. not a omg wow but super solid and good neighborhood go to.“

“Best food! Great people!!!“

“Great, i love this place.“

“Good food, very interesting and pretty unique or original Mediterranean dishes. I enjoyed everything I tried, however, nothing left me excited to try more. It's quite pricey. The ambiance is really nice, but the tables are too close together and it can get loud.“

“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!“

“Very good falafel. Quite pricey. Nice and fast service.“

“Sooo delicious!!! Wonderful staff. Great owners!!“

“It is the best persian food I have tried in New York. The staff was friendly and professional.The owner is very kind, also he is the former goal keeper of Persepolis soccer team of Iran.“

“Delicious Authentic Middle Eastern falafel and shawarma. It's a place that focuses on just that, but does it really well. Every element of the 'sandwich' is made to perfection! The pita is fresh and warm, the shawarma is cooked perfectly on the rotisserie, and each topping is delicious- the humus, tehina, amba, onions... plus ... served with a smile! Open late too!“

“אוכל זה לא הצד החזק של ניו יורק. נקודה! (גם קפה) גילינו ששף ישראלי פתח מסעדה, אלי בוסקילה שמו. נסענו לוויליאמסבורג לבדוק. המסעדה נקראת ״המסיבה״ ואכן היתה שם מסיבה גדולה. מקום מקסים, מעוצב בצורה מדהימה, רמת שירות גבוהה שלא רואים בכל מקום, כל כל הרבה עובדים מקצועיים ומסבירי פנים. והעיקר, האוכל, למות!!!! כל מנה מיוחדת וטעימה. מהחמוצים ועד המנה העיקרית. זיהיתי מיד סממנים בלקניים וטעמים שהזכירו לי את המטבח של סבתא ויקטוריה ז״ל. זכינו להכיר את השף, להרים איתו כוסית ואף התבקשנו לנסות קינוח חדש ולתת פידבק. הקינוח המושלם היה טעים ומבשר את בוא האביב. מומלץ בחום. ובהצלחה לאלי המקסים.“

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

“The beautiful, intimate atmosphere and absolutely top notch comfort food would be worth it alone - BUT the service was also awesome. After we were graciously seated without a reservation (try to book ahead because you really won't want to miss this place), the staff was so kind, friendly, and attentive. Absolutely everything we had was wonderful but the knafeh actually brought a tear to my eye. ❤️ Absolutely would recommend 5 out of 5 stars.“

“Excellent food and awesome service. Great place to spend an evening outside. And the people watching...“

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

“I’d never had falafel before trying it here, and I didn’t realize how amazing it could be until I had it at another restaurant. Ever since then, every time I come back, it never disappoints. I’d highly recommend trying it if you’re in NYC!“

“We really enjoyed our experience at Gazala's. Very reasonable prices for Manhattan. Excellent food. Very friendly and professional staff. Even the pickiest members of our party enjoyed it. I highly recommend it.“

“😊 An excellent taste 🙏🙂🍀👍“

“Delicious and friendly. Been coming here for years and bringing friends who visit from out of town.“

“10/10 Food and Ambience 😍“

“Amazing experience! The food was absolutely delicious — the shawarma, grilled meats, rice, and salad were all fresh and full of flavor. Even the sweet pie/dessert was light and excellent.

But honestly, the best part was the service. A gentleman named Noor from Egypt took great care of us. He was very respectful, friendly, and extremely helpful the whole time. Employees like him really make people want to come back again. Highly recommend this place!“

“🔝 Notch middle eastern cuisine, Hands down the best, Highly Recommended“

“it’s a treat to eat at Miznon. Great food! Wonderful service and a fun atmosphere too!“

“I like this place a lot. The food tastes fresh and homemade (not too much salt), and the portions are very generous (a lot of protein, they don't overload you on rice). The lentil soup is delicious. The pita bread could be a little fresher but I don't end up eating very much of it. Very nice staff! A very cute but tiny eat-in area if you'd like to sit down. Definitely pick this place over Mamoun's.“

“Absolutely amazing food!. Best Spinach pies I've ever had.“

“We love this place. The food is superlative, the staff are attentive, cant think of anywhere netter for milescaround.“

“Hands down one of the best spots to order from if you want authentic Palestinian falafel and cold salads and dips. I usually order the mixed cold platter with a side of kofta for delivery and my order never disappoints. They also always add extra warm pita and falafel which is an awesome bonus bc you can never have enough of their falafel! Definitely come check this place out, it’s steps off broadway train station and super worth the commute!“

“One of the best Palestinian food around 10 stars“

“The mussels in red sauce amazing 😻“

“food was simply delicious and well served👍❤️❤️❤️ the stuff was amazingly friendly and professional❤️❤️❤️will definitely go back there❤️❤️❤️💐💐💐“

“The Koshari! Will go back again for sure!“

“Really a great and very unique restaurant. First of all, the bread is more than great and completely different from any other bread in the United States. In the restaurant, you feel as if you are in Egypt or any other Arab country. You can have breakfast with beans, falafel, hummus, liver, and heart, just like you would eat in any popular restaurant in Egypt. For lunch, you can also eat Mandi and various delicious meats. The prices are reasonable, and the area where the restaurant is located is very lively 🌸🌸“

“One of the best middle eastern restaurants in metro NYC. we came with a part of five and ordered up a large sample of dishes. Everything we tried was one better than the next. Super tasty humus, light, fresh and lemony. I had a stuffed chicken over rice, which was to die for. We tried the mixed grill, shawarma, Middle East platter and several salads.
Very reasonable prices. Simple brightly lit space with a lovely staff.“

“Good Luck � My Friend“

“Had such a great experience,
The waitress was incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely helpful, which made us feel so welcomed. The food was outstanding everything tasted fresh, high quality, and absolutely delicious. You can really tell they care about both the service and the food. Definitely a great spot will come back.“

“very outstanding service also great food 🍱“

“I think this is the best shawarma i have ever had so far. Chicken platter is good, however, i am pleasantly surprised that the beef platter is also as tasty! The meat is so tender, not dry at all!

Good reasonable portion! Very satisfied 😋😋“

“A True Paradise!

I'm thrilled to return to 2 Paradise Restaurant after a year, and I must say, they've taken their excellence to the next level! My previous experiences were already top-notch, but the improvements they've made are truly impressive.

I ordered two chicken wraps, and the flavors were absolutely delightful. The quality of the ingredients and the care in preparation shone through in every bite.
I highly recommend 2 Paradise Restaurant to anyone seeking exceptional taste and value. The team's dedication to continuous improvement is genuinely admirable.“

“A very nice place to check out if you’re into mediterranean cuisine! Excellent vegetarian options and delicious food. But if you’re someone who enjoys good service like me then this is not the place. after being sat down for 15 mins the server gave the menu. After reminding 3 times, we finally got water which was bottled and we were not told about I assumed they would bring tap water and on top of that they will randomly put 15% or 18% tip irrespective of party size. Waiting for menu for 15 mins and then waiting for water not sure what kind of service one is getting and to top it off getting the drinks ordered post meal! Again if you’re a foody then this a good place to try but not for the service.“

“My favorite spot in my neighborhood in Brooklyn. Made with love. Absolutely delicious food, and everything tastes as if it’s homemade. I truly appreciate the staff too — everyone is always very welcoming. Thank you for all that you do, Dar 525!“

“Stopped in for lunch during a conference nearby. The falafel appetizer was filling, tasty, and with just a bit of heat. And the proprieter was delightfully friendly, throwing in a bit of hummus and a pita. A dessert of baklava was sweet without being sickly or cloying or too wet. And the price with a soft drink was less than $12, which is a real bargain. I'll be back again if I'm in the area.“

“I have been coming to Turkish Cuisine for many years. I used to live in the area and since moving out of the neighborhood, this is the only restaurant I will come back for. The food is so authentic and so delicious. You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. I love how they have a variety of options. Even my friends rave about the food when I bring them. One of my favorite things about this restaurant is their outdoor patio in the back and YES they are dog friendly too!!“

“Food and drinks were delicious and our wait staff was friendly and attentive! Two thumbs up!“

“Amazing hookah flavors. I recommend the cream mint with gum, very smooth and delicious

Update: came back with two friends and had hookah with 3 different flavors and the drinks were absolutely amazing
Shay is incredible and provides the best service!!“

“Fortuna NYC brings a stylish, upbeat energy with a menu that feels both modern and approachable. The dishes are well-balanced, flavorful, and nicely presented without trying too hard. Service is attentive, and the overall vibe makes it great for a casual night out or a relaxed dinner with friends. A solid, feel-good spot worth checking out.“

“An awesome experience. Great food and very attentive service. Will be back ❤️“
