“the food is great and quick to serve.“

“Fresh, flavorful, great quality. well seasoned with awesome layers of flavors. beyond impressed. out of towner who swung in for a quick meal before a show. byob is an awesome touch and makes up for the slightly higher pricing. service is great too with knowledgeable and friendly staff. 5/5“

“For a $1000 meal I expect flawless service and unfortunately that was not the case. Drinks ordered during dinner arrived while eating desert. Two times they brought over the wrong drinks and one order they completely forgot.. Also when waiter brings over food he should know who ordered what and not have to ask again. Food was good but service needs improvement if those are the prices you will be charging.“

“extremely generous portions and fresh ingredients at Hummus Republic. honestly i always get the same thing but it never disappoints - lemon chicken is tasty and the garlic jalapeño tahini is a little spicy so it’s a nice touch. the bowl is huge and stuffed to the brim every time - it lasts me for basically two meals and it’s affordable considering how much food you get (about $15 depending if you add any extras). they also have self-service lemonade - the pomegranate and mango lemonade mix is delicious!“

“Wonderful experience dining here. Delicious chicken combo for 2 - chicken chops especially good!, varied dips with pita, large servings. It was all great. Service and atmosphere were super too. Will definitely be back, highly recommend.“

“I came in and ordered a Dhoom chicken sandwich and some fried chicken and I noticed they had biryani. In my twenty-two years of living I have never seen biryani on the menu of any halal platter/chicken shack place so I gave it a try expecting it to be mid. They are on par with a few of the restaurants in the area with that biryani and it's actually pretty cheap too at 12 bucks. They put a fair amount of meat in there too, like three pieces with a lot of rice. The Dhoom chicken sandwich was actually fresh and had some good toppings (onions, tomatoes) with tasty sauce. The fried chicken was a little greasy though. Even though Piscataway and NB are full of halal places if you're looking for something unique try these guys.“

“I went there for the first time tonight. (brick,nj) I actually liked the food BUT THE SERVICE WAS TERRIBLE. I had never been there before and was unfamiliar with what and how to order. Apparently the staffthought that was funny and laughed about us and turned arounded to talk BS multiple times. Will not be back there.“

“Amazing new shwarma place in town. Really glad I stopped by today and tried the beef wrap. The staff is so friendly and helpful.And the wrap I can honestly say it was amazing. This was their 1st day opening.I suspect I'll be a regular customer here.“

“This was my fist time here, the food was absolutely delicious. I stepped out of my comfort zone, and was not disappointed. The service was great, food came out quick, hot, and delicious. Restaurant was very clean as well. Will definitely be back and will be 100% recommend to everyone!“

“Hey there ? I live in Islamabad, I visited Gyro King, the food is so Delicious and everyone who works there is so sweet and kind also the staff is so kind. We had visited many great places but I loved the Gyro King food. The Araby salad is so good in taste and all the other dishes I tried is also so yummy and delicious. Keep up the good work guys and don't let up on the consistency!“

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

“Amazing Food and service !!“

“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.“

“The boys were exceptionally sweet and welcoming. This is my first time at this location and the customer service was amazing! I’ll stop by anytime I’m this neighborhood!“

“Great food and great people. Highly recommend them!“

“The food was very delicious and fresh. Everyone was very pleased . The service was very friendly and responsive. They also provided very generous sizes to very reasonable price. Highly recommended“

“We were disappointed they weren’t open for in dining- only takeout. HOWEVER, we were delighted by our order- chicken shawarma and grape leaves. The young lady at the counter was sweet and personable.
We were impressed by the array of herb infused bottled vinegar that address a variety of ailments- curious about their effectiveness but at $50 a bottle didn’t want to gamble it.
We will be back for takeout and look forward to when they are open for dining.“

“We got the combination platter for two. More than enough food. Everything was delicious and the staff was friendly.“

“Mamoun’s Falafel is hands down the best spot for falafel—crispy on the outside, perfectly fluffy on the inside, and packed with flavor. Their lamb platter is incredible—juicy, tender, and seasoned to perfection. The vegetarian platter is just as amazing, loaded with fresh ingredients and bold flavors.

One thing you have to do is order the garlic sauce and hot sauce they take everything to the next level! The combination of flavors is absolutely delicious, and every bite is satisfying.

If you’re craving authentic, high-quality Mediterranean food, this is the place to go. 10/10 would recommend!“

“I ordered a maple cold brew with pistachio cold foam from their winter menu and a few donuts. It was all delicious!“

“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!!!“

“Was impressed with the decor, service and food. The BBQ burger was cooked perfectly! Made with fresh meat (not frozen formed patty) - not sure whst the English would be but I know it in Yiddish as “hockfleish.” The BBQ sauce added to the taste of the meat without being overpowering and the onion, pickle, lettuce and the challah bun were all extremely fresh. Looking forward to coming back snd trying the other choices!“

“Excellent place and delicious food“

“So grateful to Café Picasso for making my birthday dinner last Friday night a wonderful experience! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was above and beyond! It's dimly lit inside which made reading the menu a bit challenging. However, everything we did order made up for it! I highly recommend the Frittura di Calamari for an appetizer. The following dishes we ordered were spectacular! Rigatoni alla Vodka, Penne alla Grotta, Gnocchi Alessandra, Norwegian Salmon (special), Penne al Forno, Spaghetti alla Carbonara and the Pollo alla Francese! It is a BYOB establishment, luckily there is a wine and spirits store next door. My family will definitely be returning to this beautiful gem in the heart of Somerville!“

“Kyma is the reason we drive 30 minutes for amazing authentic Greek cuisine. Our appetizer/small plate of smoked eggplant dip & lamb empanada with herb mint sauce was a wonderful start. Sea bass in tomato broth with potatoes & Aegean shrimp dish were perfectly prepared. We had to have the baklava with vanilla ice cream (no pic as we attacked it!). The ambience, service and food made for a beautiful meal!“

“A Greek experience away from home. All are super authentic from the deserts to the coffee.“

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

“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🥰“
