“Family friendly… nice view“

“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!“

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

“Presented with Very warm welcoming staff with a fresh crispy Falafel on the start.
I ordered chicken over rice with salad
No doubt salad was fresh and white sauce made it awesome in tasty but chicken wasn’t cook well. Could be better but over all joyful experience .“

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

“I'm so glad I finally decided to come and try this restaurant.
The staff and the owner were the absolute sweetest and kindest, I felt right at home as if they were my uncles and brothers. The owner made me get free rice pudding on the house and I got to try their lentil soup as well, which was very cozy.

The owner let me try the hummus and as someone who is picky about hummus, their's had such a nice zing to it. It was thick and smooth, coated my mouth and gone in seconds.

As for the shawarma, it was amazing. I got the chicken to eat there but got a mixed platter to go. Every single item in the mixed grill was phenomenal. The beef kofta was great too. I loved the char on my chicken shawarma more though. You can't go wrong with any choices here.

The rice needs to have its own paragraph however. The owner asked which rice I would like to try as they have two kinds: Yellow rice or lentil rice. I asked for both and was blown away by both. I could not choose which one was better because both were that amazing.
The salad was great too. Perfect pickles and fresh lettuce.

I will say my only feedback is the food did start tasting a bit too salty as you keep eating. So make sure to have water or a drink to help cut through the build up of saltiness. Or maybe I came on a day where all the food tasted a bit more on the salty side, not sure.

All in all, I'm glad I finally chose to go here. This is a spot that you can never go wrong eating in. It's fantastic and dare I say, the best shawarma and Egyptian food I ever had!“

“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“

“Good Luck � My Friend“

“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!“

“Without a doubt, one of the Best Food trucks we ever tried! We were visitng the Untermeyer Garden conservancy and it was close by the gate!
I had the Chicken Gyro and my wife tried the Falafel sandwich, both absolutely Fresh and mouthwatering! Totally recommend it, it’ll make the Garden visit a much more joyful experience“

“Great food , great prices. Friendly welcoming staff. the classic shawarma sandwich and falafel sandwich are delicious. do yourself a favor and get the mint lemonade, you'll be hooked :)“

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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“We were visiting the area and were drawn here by the amazing smells. So many different choices of slices were available. My daughter chose cheese and a pasta topped slice. I chose ricotta/spinach and a mushroom. This place makes the best pizza we’ve ever had!“

“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!“
