I drive almost half an hour to come to this location. The staff are lovely, the store itself is gorgeous, and the food is just HEAVEN. I got fresh made taboulleh and it was PERFECT. As good as home recipes! and their shawarma bowls are always to die for! I can't stop coming here, truly a wonderful place!

Always love the opportunity to eat healthy. I was curious about this new Mediterranean restaurant in my neighborhood. I ordered the Naya bowl and shows the beef Shawarma, which was delicately seasoned. I added falafel since I hadn't had any In a long time . I included the baba ghannouj Yogurt and Cucumber green and red cabbage and Kalamata olives. I finished the meal off with pita bread and a Rekakat cheese roll. All were delicious and fresh..

Food is amazing and reasonably priced. I get a whole mess of toppings and dips on top and take great pleasure in mixing everything together. It's flavorful and delicious. I haven't been inside so I can't speak to what it looks like - but they deliver themselves and the food always shows up hot and in good shape. My only complaint is that the fried stuff they offer for appetizers tends to be a bit dry and almost always shows up cold and lonely. I'd steer clear and stick to the bowls.

I generally do not write multiple reviews about my visits to restaurants. This is the exception. I had dinner Monday night and it was awesome. It was fresh and the staff was so friendly. They even convinced me to by the semolina cake. Keep up the great work!!!

This location had great hot food and even better service. Will definitely be going back soon.

Naya Restaurant presents itself as a typical option for those seeking Indian cuisine, offering a menu filled with familiar dishes but failing to rise above the status of average within its culinary niche. While it boasts a variety of traditional Indian fare, including curries, tandoori dishes, and biryanis, the execution often lacks the finesse and consistency expected from top-tier Indian restaurants. Despite occasional glimpses of authentic flavors and aromatic spices, Naya struggles to maintain a standard of excellence across its menu, resulting in a dining experience that fails to leave a lasting impression. While it may satisfy cravings for Indian flavors, Naya Restaurant ultimately falls short of achieving distinction in the competitive world of Indian dining.

Found a giant piece of HAIR in my dinner at Naya. It's disgusting to find a piece of hair in your food at the bottom of your bowl. I feel like vomiting. I would NEVER go back to Naya!

Outstanding new option for the area. Super fresh, great flavors, good portions. The falafel are the best I've had recently. Happy to see places like this popping up.
We've taken out a few times and always a great experience. Food is fresh and flavorful with many options. Hard to find good shawarma in the area since Mamoun's left Paramus. The chicken shawarma bowl is great with many options. Tried many of the add one like falafel and all were great. I prefer taking out as ordering with the app is less stressful than choosing options with a line of people behind me.

Service was awful. Staff just got a talk by the manager or something when I got there. Nothing labeled so you're forced to ask what is what, and then the person helping you doesn't want to be there and barely answers your questions and mumbles. Got so frustrated trying to order I just stopped and paid for what I already had. I felt like not even paying for the bowl after the experience. Food wise what I had was below average. Will not be back.

Love Naya! So glad a new location popped up closer than Paramus. My go to is their Naya roll with beef shawarma, the ingredients are always fresh and flavorful. I have never had a bad experience with their food. And I am always pleasantly and perfectly full after eating. The locations are always spotless and clean and well light. Parking here is easy as it is in its own shopping center.

Pitas are SOGGY and served WET inside plastic bags. Totally GROSS! They taste like chewing gum. Not sure how that is authentic mediterranean cuisine.
