I had known about this place in advance as a colleague of my wife’s brought food from here to a party, so when in town for a meeting we came for a business lunch - we were not disappointed. The fattoush was excellent as was the labneh, and the mixed platter was enough food for 10! Love the rice preparation. I took a chicken lavash and a kebab home and both were excellent, terrific seasoning. Zaid was so kind and wrapped everything up for us at the end of the meal so we could have yummy leftovers. Everyone was so friendly and they kept bringing out their favorites (even if we didn’t order them) as they wanted to share. Love this place and would totally return…

Excellent food. Everything we had was delicious, especially the hummus and muhammara. The servers took very good care of us. Shukran, Ismael, Ahmed and Farouq. I can’t wait to go back.

I found it by chance, I didn't know that there was an Arab community in this area, because of the flag I saw there, they are Palestinians and although I am from a totally different culture, I love their food, drinks, desserts, everything, now I know where to go to get This delicious and authentic food, I loved the place, the service of the food, for my part they will have one more customer.

This place is not meant to be fancy but rather authentic. Offers traditional Palestinian and Lebanese middle eastern dishes. The flavors were authentic and food pretty tasty. The ambience takes you back to home far away. Very family friendly. Sit in the covered patio for an open feel. Would go back.

Food was excellent. I have been in mideast 9 times and know good food. Be sure to get their hummus. But service was very poor, waiter was slow and nonresponsive.

Where do I start? I took my family for Ramadan iftar, and the experience immediately started off on an extremely bad note. The owners son got into a verbal and physical altercation with a customer and decided to spit in the customers face. Regardless of who’s right and who’s wrong the owner and his staff should treat there customers with respect. The man who was spat on was an older gentleman, the age of most of our parents. The owners son then decided to beat up his whole staff who was trying to calm the situation. All while this is happening the owners son is trying to grab a hooka to hit the customer he just SPIT ON. Secondly the food was the worst I had in any restaurant in Patterson. You can tell they use cheap ingredients and only care about how much money they will make, not satisfying the customers. Third there was and is no social distancing standards for the buffet. To sum it up SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GIVE IT TO OTHER ARAB ESTABLISHMENTS IN THE AREA BECAUSE THIS ONE CLEARLY DOES NOT RESPECT OR CARE FOR ITS CUSTOMERS.

Hummus is good but the service is very poor and cold treatment... The arais was very oily so avoid it. The platter is huge and good for 3 people. Falafel was good.
Staff was very disrespectful since the time we walked in. The food honestly is always good food and tasty since we have been a regular customer to this restaurant. I was personally was insulted with a server's name 'SAM' without any social distancing with a ready to fight position in front of 11 members of my family including my wife and kids. There was a full 100% occupancy in the restaurant after we kept waiting 30 mins during the corona period I would rather have a more organized respected social distancing with a proper face masking policy's than waiting all that time and get insulted. It was really unpleasant experience after being a loyal customer for years. Owner of the restaurant handled the issue in a very good way but still the feeling it self, you need to have a better customer service.

My family love Abu Ras. Usually food is very tender and juicy . But I was very disappointed with the quality of food I ordered today . I ordered full grilled chickens and it was burned and dry. No one touched it. Attaching pic here. The pita bread they gave us was cold and seems old . Please please don’t lower the quality of your food. I would to order again only if I get good quality Food.
