“The chef and the waitress made you feel like family
I’m a picky eater but the food was amazing I ate it all I can’t say enough everyone I was with walked away full and a smile on their face
Please support this great restaurant you won’t regret it“

“3 Falafel plates, 1 Spinach pie plus drinks for $50.

The food is AMAZING!!!!!!

I can't stress enough how good it is here.

If you live locally and don't come here, well I think your mad.

If you are visiting Manhattan and don't come across the water to eat here. Well I still think your mad.

This is how Falafel and Hummus is supposed to taste.“

“A rare 5 stars from me. Make sure you find him, he's in a row of random food stalls and is a bit nondescript compared to them.

Price is now $10 for falafel sandwich but still the best value meal in all Manhattan. Very generous with the fillings, cutlery and napkins etc and he also gave two pieces of fried dough with it which was a nice surprise.

Drinks priced very reasonably at $2 each only.

This stall practices all-in pricing so the price advertised is what you get. Hats off to it“

“Absolutely amazing food and magi drink is yummmmmy!“

“I went here for lunch yesterday and had the Hanger Steak on Whole Wheat Pita (it was on the specials menu) and it truly made my day. So flavorful with sautéed onions and a delicious side salad. I HAD to write a review to help spread the news, the food was fresh and unbelievably good and the service was top notch. <3“

“Love the food“

“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!“

“Family friendly… nice view“

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

“Quality of food is outstanding & FRESH ! The price is just right! Love this place!!!!“

“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!“

“Delicious, quick, and such nice staff! I love the veggies and the pickles along with the wonderfully herbaceous hot sauce!“

“I ate here several times during my visit to NY love the food“

“We ordered 4 Catering trays for our hospital holiday potluck and the food was delicious! Mr. Wissam is such a nice person and very professional! Will definitely always order from him for all of our holiday potlucks! Thank you for the special delivery and special additional items. All of our staffed loved it and will come back with their families for more!“

“An inexpensive, tasty hole in the wall survives in Union Square! Delicious falafel and decent shawarma in an overstuffed pita. Ridiculously low prices. Make sure to bring lots of napkins and consider eating in Union Square, as they're full of drippy goodness. The owners are efficient and down to business, but warm up after repeat visits.“

“My picture isn't the best because I was too hungry to take a better picture but this was amazing! I ordered the Shawafel and it was big enough for two but being from LA I wasn't going to get something this good for a while so I ate it all. It was spicy (optional) and hot and fresh. They even gave us an extra falafel as a treat! The guys serving are super cool too.“

“Really good food and service. Falafel and garlic is sauce is out of this world.“

“I called the restaurant just to make sure if the places still open. The person answer the phone call I said was what time do you open next thing you know he hanged up on me so rude and that’s not business like with a customer that’s on the phone. I give you zero stars.. Who ever answer the phone 4/18/26 at 8:30. very rude n the phone. I'm pissed off right now..“

“Best food in the area, used to walk pass this place everyday and never entered, I never knew the food was so good, very clean ingredients generous portions and most importantly very delicious! The staff is also very nice and make
you feel welcomed“

“Good Luck � My Friend“

“Great food! I had the double cheeseburger which was a bit lacking in terms of flavor but I’ve heard their kebabs are much better. I’ll go back some other time to try the kebabs because the restaurant was great overall. Good service, really great prices. The only issue was the atmosphere but can’t complain for the price. Very competitive and a great option.“

“Amazing food come and check it out. show some support for them. really amazing people and service is great. Portion is amazing. I recommend you trying their Philly cheesesteak. Amazing. Amazing amazing. 💪🏼🔥“

“Shlomo's kindness and generosity is endless! Not only has he offered to participate in a PTO sponsored dine to donate today, but when our school staff ordered lunch to support, he refused payment and insisted the payment be donated to the PTO in full! He gets plenty of love and all is deserved! Thank you Shlomo and Gyro Grill for not only delicious food but for your continued acts of love in the Wayne community!“

“I came all the way from Brooklyn to New Jersey just to try this pizza at Benjy’s kosher pizza after hearing it has a real Israeli-style taste — and it was absolutely worth the trip.

The pizza was excellent, with an authentic flavor that really brings you back to what you’d find in Israel. The dough, sauce, and cheese all blend perfectly together, and everything tasted fresh and high quality. The service was also outstanding — friendly, fast, and professional, with a great atmosphere that made the experience even better.

Overall, it was a great experience both in terms of food and service. Definitely a place worth coming back to, and highly recommended for anyone missing that real Israeli pizza taste.“

“1. Phenomenal pizza, baked based upon your desired style/taste. The "undercarriage" is perfection!!!!

2. The ambiance was crafted in a significantly casual yet comfortable fashion. You feel good as soon as you take a seat. They are also constructed for a high capacity crowd.

3. One of the greatest features of all...., SERVICE! An Absolutely enjoyable experience. Warm greetings, and phenomenal all-around-service can be expected. I had an extremely positive experience, the very first time I walked in.

An overall, unbelievable experience can be expected!“

“this store is very clean and all team work is friendly with customer and I try all kind of food is very good everyday I buy my lunch and dinner from this store and I sent all my friends to this restaurant Kings falafel and all of them like this store because the food is very good“

“My experience at Zurna Restaurant was truly enjoyable. The restaurant offers a warm and inviting ambiance that feels both comfortable and elegant, making it a great place for family dining or casual meetups.

The food was delicious and well-prepared, with rich flavors and good attention to presentation. Each dish tasted fresh and satisfying, reflecting good quality overall.

The staff were polite, welcoming, and provided attentive service throughout the visit. Everything was served in a timely manner, adding to the pleasant experience.

Overall, Zurna Restaurant is a great choice for a relaxing and tasty dining experience. I would definitely recommend it and look forward to visiting again.“

“Always a delicious meal at Mamoun’s. Proud patron for over 30 years. Never disappoints.“

“I’ve been going to Ibby’s since they first opened. If you want good food, this is the place to go. Their falafels are like no other!! They have the best falafels in N.J. Hands down!“

“If you're looking for authentic kosher Israeli-style falafel in Manhattan, this food truck is an absolute winner.

Finding truly authentic falafel is one thing. Finding it kosher, fresh, reasonably priced, and right in Manhattan is something else entirely. This place delivers on all fronts.

The falafel is crispy on the outside, soft and flavorful on the inside, and always tastes fresh. The salads, pickles, sauces, and pita are fresh and plentiful, giving you the full Israeli street-food experience. Every bite feels authentic and brings back memories of grabbing falafel from a small stand in Israel.

As someone who keeps kosher, I especially appreciate having a reliable kosher option that doesn't sacrifice quality or flavor. Too often kosher food gets judged on the fact that it's kosher. Here, the food stands on its own merit. The fact that it's kosher is simply an added bonus.

The prices are very fair, especially for Manhattan, and the portions are generous. Whether you're a local, a tourist, or just passing through the city, this is the kind of place that's worth seeking out.

Fresh food, authentic flavors, fair prices, and a solid kosher option in the heart of Manhattan. What more can you ask for?

Highly recommended and well deserving of 5 stars.“

“Overall rating: 4.9
Paid: $9 with Tip

OMG SO GOOD. AND AFFORDABLE. Cash only and they accept Zelle. The staff is also sooooo friendly especially in such a small area. It definitely put a smile on my face that I wasn’t expecting during my lunch break. Highly recommend! I tried to go back recently to take a picture but I can’t find it anymore 😭 does anyone know if they moved?“

“Good food 🥘 good service ❤️“

“First time here and was skeptical because of the prior businesses that have been there I am actually very surprised the place is brand new and very clean the lady was very nice and customer friendly, so we got a a few things first the burgers are like homade absolutely delicious fresh lettuce tomatoes and onions sesame bun cooked perfect, the wings are amazing im pretty sure they are restaurant depots extra crispy wings which Noone sells cause there expensive but definitely 10 out of 10 on crispy wings, and chicken cutlet salad all fresh great breaded chicken and just good im so glad we finally got a good lil spot like this in town best wishes“

“As a newbie creating my own shwarma meal, I appreciated the countermans help and recommendation. Excellent meal! Tasty, filling. I’m so happy I went!“

“It’s clean , the food is fantastic the staff is friendly and prices are quite affordable.The outdoor dining is perfect.I absolutely love this place♥️“

“These street carts were peppered all over NYC. Am unsure why certain carts have longer queues than the rest even though they were all from the same franchise. Nothing much to comment on the taste. I didn't like the mess on the plate which was heavily slathered in white sauce. Reasonably priced. Portions are huge.“

“Today I went to Shah's Halal Food in Stratford, CT. Their food is well seasoned and very delicious!“

“I don’t care what anyone thinks, this is one of my favorite spots in the city! I remember back in 2012 when they only had the west 4th spot that I would travel all the way from the heights to get my shawarma. SO GOOD and so happy they have more locations. I could eat Mamouns all day everyday!“

“Decided to take a chance on a Google recommendation. It was in ,proximity to my work so I took a walk. Glad that I did. I ordered the Swarma sandwich, a side of Falafel, and pistachio baklava (to satisfy my greedy spirit). Everything 10 out of 10. Very fresh. You know how some restaurants over fry the falafel, and it's like a little rock, well not here!!! I highly recommend- the quality of food will not disappoint.“

“quick n easy def a place worth trying“
