Middle Eastern Restaurants near Paramus, NJ

“Great food and service ….“

“If you're looking for the best Koobideh kebab in New Jersey and New York, Zaffron Bloom is the place to go. Every time I visit, I'm amazed by the deliciousness of the food, especially their Tahdig. The Olivieh salad and Spanish yogurt are also quite tasty. Since it's a family-run business, the owners are incredibly kind and welcoming. I love this place and highly recommend their kebabs!??“

“Best restaurant in NJ. Always fresh tasty and delicious food. A must try!“

“Kan Zamaan is a culinary treasure, renowned for its exceptional Mansaf and Mendi. The Mansaf, rich with tender lamb and perfectly spiced yogurt sauce, is a true celebration of tradition, while the flavorful, aromatic Mendi showcases the art of slow-cooked perfection. The restaurant’s enchanting ambiance and attentive service enhance the experience, making it ideal for any occasion. For an authentic taste of Middle Eastern cuisine, Kan Zamaan is a must-visit destination!“

“Great tasty BBQ. Our favorite is the kefta kebab. Only reason 1 star is deducted because I purchased three orders of the (six) skewers for a total of 18 skewers but was given less when I decided to count today. Not a big deal but if I am asked to combine my three orders to one platter, we will check and let you know if we were shorted :)
Also maybe seasoning the French fries will
Improve the flavor a little. Thank you!“

“This food is so flavorful! I love to have something different to eat and not just the tired options of Pizza or Chinese? You can get comfort food or healthier dishes and all will be delicious. The prices offer excellent value.

Vegetarian options: Their pumpkin and eggplant are amazing! Haven’t tried falafel.

Dietary restrictions: Yummy vegan options

Kid-friendliness: Easy place to eat with children“

“Great food and friendly people the best Falafel and Shawarma“

“Delicious falafel, never disappoints“

“I just found this gem in Harlem and let me say I am thoroughly impressed. First, the Yemeni tea is extremely good. No need to add anything. Secondly, the amount of food that you get for money is a great deal. I had #21 Aqdat Dajaj (Curry Chicken) w/Basmati Rice and a side of Naan bread (it was huge). You also receive soup and a mini salad before the actual entree. I left there stuffed and satisfied. The space is very quaint and somewhat intimate. It’s a must try!! And it’s Halal!!!

Vegetarian options: There are about 13 vegetarian dishes to choose from.“

“Had the tasty falafel waffle and fava bean salad for lunch. Great vegetarian options plus a beautiful atmosphere and friendly service. Look forward to returning.“

“Delicious and fresh food! Got the Mazzah platter and got to sample many incredible dishes! The eggplant and falafel were my favorites! Got the lamb special too and WOW, it did not disappoint!! I think the owner served us! He was so kind and patient with us as we made our choices! Even gave us some baklava which was INCREDIBLE?!!!! I will be dreaming of it!! Can’t wait to come back! Thank you!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!!!!“

“We have used Sababa several times to cater shul events for 200+ people. We keep coming back for more bc the response is consistently so positive - people always ask, “where is this delicious food from??!!” Danny is great to work with and the food is homey, tasty, and plentiful. We will definitely be back again and again!!“

“Great food and very accommodating staff…highly recommended and I will return.“

“Do not refer to the five stars. They do not reflect my opinion. I just wanted to say that perhaps a short explanation should be added somewhere that the hummus is intended for the palate of Columbia University students so that Israeli clients do not develop expectations.“

“We went to Samdan Mediterranean Restaurant on our last day in New York. We went with 2 kiddos under 10 and ordered the chicken nuggets for them. For the adults, we ordered falafel, tabouli and hummus for an appetizer, and both were very good, had lots of flavor though the portions were smaller than we expected and we needed to ask for the Nan bread.

We followed up with the sultan platter for the table, and it came with rice, we also ordered a bruschetta salad. The portion for the platter was more than enough for 4 adults, and it had an assortment of meats, including lamb, chicken. We accompanied the meal with a bottle of red wine and found the pricing and portion sizes to be good for our group.

Overall, great atmosphere and place to have a nice dinner out for a group of adults.“

“We have been getting take-out from Falafel Hut for many many years. It’s a great option for a reasonably priced meal. We have had a variety of items from the menu and have been happy with them. We have also ordered for parties / group gathering and everyone was happy with the meal.

Kid-friendliness: If your kid wants chicken fingers and fries, their’s are good.“

“muy buen vizcocho me gusto mucho“

“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!“

“Its really good, you have to ask for hot otherwise you'll get frozen and it's not the sameI like to add, their time is very weird I only go there on Saturday cause I work the whole week sometime I go at 8am and I find them just opening and have to wait about an hour to get it hot and other times I go at 10am and they tell me it's too late I don't understand their time but always happy when I get this amazing meal hot.“
