“Three of us had a wonderful dine-in experience at Koy Grill Marlboro/Morganville enjoying authentic Turkish/Mediterranean flavors and attentive service. From the moment we opened the door at 8:30 pm on a Sunday evening, we were greeted by a hostess who genuinely welcomed us to the restaurant. When we were seated, a pretty glass bottle of cold water was brought to our table, along with seasoned fresh/homemade Turkish bread and olive tapenade. The dinnerware and utensils were clean and tightly wrapped in napkin. Waiter and hostess (Ali and Olivia) introduced themselves. New to restaurant, I was given ample time to review menu. Both Ali (in training) and Olivia were very patient with my many menu questions. Needless to say, Ali and Olivia were spot on. We ordered multiple appetizers - shepherd salad, hummus + pita, crispy feta in phyllo rolls, and lentil soup. For dinner we had chicken shish, lamb adana, and lamb gyro + pita that I opted to top with grilled mushrooms and hot pepper. The online photos did not do the dishes any justice. I should have taken my camera out to share how plentiful the dishes were when served and how perfectly grilled the meats were, too! The food had delicious seasoning - that did not repeat afterwards. We took leftovers home and will enjoy lunch the next day. We each had desserts, too, that were served in glassware. One pistachio/gelato and two hazelnut/chocolate flute - both as pictured on menu. We were offered to take glassware home with us afterwards, but forgot to take with us while we focused on remembering to take our bagged leftovers. All in all, it was a truly enjoyable, unplanned Sunday evening dinner. Aside from the freshly cooked delicious food and desserts, it was one of the most pleasant interactions with restaurant staff that I can remember in a long time. Thank You Koy Grill and an even bigger Thank You to Ali and Olivia for welcoming us and for providing us with a great restaurant experience.“

“This place checks off all the important parts of a food business. Consistent, clean, friendly, quality, value, and taste. It is difficult to have it all…this place does. No need to go to NYc for a platter- it’s amazing here!“

“Amazing Food and service !!“

“What a delicious meal we had! My friend has been many times. My first, but not the last! We had Lamb and Shrimp, with delicious sides🍀“

“CAVA!! You have NO right to be so DELICIOUS and be 30 minutes from my house 🤣 but really please bring one down to Carolina forest SC! I had the salmon strawberry bowl how it comes but pickles onions instead of the tomatoes & it was out of this world .. I will be back!!!“

“Drinks so fresh“

“Very healthy food and worker are friendly. Love this place“

“Kaizr (Egyptian-American Owned Restaurant) New Brunswick, New Jersey
Kaizr Restaurant was pretty amazing; the atmosphere was absolutely nice. I love New Jersey every time I visit. This time takes the cake especially considering the great dish I had while here. I love Chicken Tawook and it was a masterpiece, grilled well and full of flavor. The beef Kofta was very good too; each bite was delicious, and the eggplant was the best I've had in a while. The pita chips were fried crispy and delicious too. The beef Kofta was juicy/tender and the chicken tawook was juicy/tender as well. The eggplant has some sort of sweet tomato sauce that makes it taste great. Every part of this dish was very very good; the staff was excellent in their professionalism. Peace, blessings, and kindness of Allah SWT be with you, and may your business prosper! #egyptian #newjersey #newbrunswick #islam #trending“

“Great place for Gyro sandwiches and platters.The food is simply delicious !!! 😊“

“Loved Sofra! The food was delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. We started with the baba ganoush and that huge warm bread, which was so good. For our mains, we tried a few different kebabs and grilled meats with rice, salad and pickled cabbage. Everything was cooked perfectly and the portions were generous.
The restaurant is cute and colorful inside, the service was great, and we left completely stuffed. Definitely one of those places I’d happily come back to“

“Such an awesome restaurant . Was recommended by a friend. We are definitely going to be a regular customer now. Friendly staff, great ambiance. For vegetarians , try the falafel platter and the zucchini Eggplant chips“

“Great ambience with even better food. The server was really good he made us felt welcome and also suggested what we should order. Lamb Adana kababs were very authentic and really tasty I will suggest it as a must have if you like Mediterranean food. Also ordered Tas kabab, it was really good, the meat was really tender and gravy complimented the rice it was served with.“

“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!!!“

“Delicious food and service! They do a lot of catering for large events , all the catering is made fresh and very good size portions“

“We visited the New Brunswick, NJ location on March 11,2025 around 8:30pm and must say we are extremely disappointed with the service. Here’s our saga: we ordered chicken Kakab platter in person and asked the person behind the counter to put the olives, turnips and pickle on the side. It was shocking to hear that the guy told me that I have to pay extra. I told him again I am not asking for anything extra but just that I need my olives, pickand turnip which is on top to Be put in the side he reiterated and said that it will be an extra charge. The manager had put in a new policy in place. Is there any checks and balances in place to control this nonsense This is so bizarre….let me ask you this …. If I go to a burger joint and ask them for fries in a separate plate (again not extra) would they ask me for more money? What’s going on Mamouns? Not expecting from you guys…. Utter disgrace…. We have been your patrons since last 20 years ….. its makes us think twice if we really want to go to Mamouns again. This is totally unacceptable.“

“Great staff, meal options, and service! We order often and always enjoy the food and generous portions. Everyone is nice and friendly. It’s also located in a convenient area - easy to go in, order and get exactly what you want! It’s halal and has vegetarian options also so it appeals to all customers. Highly recommend 👍“

“I love this restaurant so much! I've ordered the grilled octopus appetizer two weeks in a row—it's absolutely delicious. The meat is tender and fragrant, absolutely worth a try. For my main course, I had the chicken souvlaki with lemon potatoes, which was delicious and perfectly seasoned. The accompanying olive bread was the perfect icing on the cake and complemented every dish perfectly. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The service is personalized and relaxed, creating a homely dining experience. They also offer BYOB (Bring Your Own Wine), which is a real plus! People always seem happy dining at Pithari Taverna—perhaps because of the warm atmosphere, the delicious food, or simply because of the authentic Greek atmosphere🥰“

“Best place ever Dalia and the Staff Thanks agin for Great Catering For our son Bar mitzvah“

“We order from DoorDash. Great value - 2 for 1 chicken over rice bowls. I’m from NY and didn’t think I’d ever find good halal out here, this is absolutely THE BEST! Sooo good and flavorful, they put the right amt of hot & white sauce and big portions.“

“Owner and employees are very friendly and that makes for a great place to eat and relax“

“Food is excellent and very nice place“
