“Excellent food Best Israeli food in town“

“Best food! Great people!!!“

“Good food, very interesting and pretty unique or original Mediterranean dishes. I enjoyed everything I tried, however, nothing left me excited to try more. It's quite pricey. The ambiance is really nice, but the tables are too close together and it can get loud.“

“We ordered for the first time tonight from Sammy, former proprietor of JuJu’s Bagels now transformed into El Toum. We ordered 4 items and they were ready for pickup in less than 25 minutes. The Mixed Kebab platter, Kofta Burger with fries, Falafel Sandwich with extra tahini sauce, and El Toum Appetizer were refreshingly homemade, tasted delicious, and proved outstanding bangs for the buck. More than enough food for a family of four with leftovers. This is a very welcome addition to a neighborhood missing this kind of fare. I highly recommend supporting this local business. Some of the best falafel and tabouli I’ve tasted in quite some time too!“

“It is the best persian food I have tried in New York. The staff was friendly and professional.The owner is very kind, also he is the former goal keeper of Persepolis soccer team of Iran.“

“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!“

“Amazing place! Owner, food and service wow!!!“

“We really enjoyed our experience at Gazala's. Very reasonable prices for Manhattan. Excellent food. Very friendly and professional staff. Even the pickiest members of our party enjoyed it. I highly recommend it.“

“ATEHNTIC FOOD EXCELLENT QUALITY SITTING AREA IS GOOD“

“I would have given a "5" rating for atmosphere if not for flies outside around our food. I also don't like the hookah smoking. Other than that, the service and the food were Perfect!!!“

“Amazing experience! The food was absolutely delicious — the shawarma, grilled meats, rice, and salad were all fresh and full of flavor. Even the sweet pie/dessert was light and excellent.

But honestly, the best part was the service. A gentleman named Noor from Egypt took great care of us. He was very respectful, friendly, and extremely helpful the whole time. Employees like him really make people want to come back again. Highly recommend this place!“

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

“Food was delicious! Had the Bronzino which came with the sayadeya rice. The fish was so delicious, perfectly seasoned. The unexpected star of the show was the grilled octopus which was so soft and juicy… not chewy at all and lots of flavor. Maybe the best i’ve had. Friendly Egyptians. The service and atmosphere fits the vibe, very casual spot. Food was served quickly. Will be back!“

“One of the best Palestinian food around 10 stars“

“Hands down one of the best spots to order from if you want authentic Palestinian falafel and cold salads and dips. I usually order the mixed cold platter with a side of kofta for delivery and my order never disappoints. They also always add extra warm pita and falafel which is an awesome bonus bc you can never have enough of their falafel! Definitely come check this place out, it’s steps off broadway train station and super worth the commute!“

“Good Luck � My Friend“

“Absolutely amazing food!. Best Spinach pies I've ever had.“

“The platters here are absolutely amazing — always fresh, flavorful, and packed with generous portions. I’ve honestly become a regular because the food never disappoints! On top of that, the prices are so good and super affordable for the quality you get. Definitely one of my favorite spots now!“

“One of the best middle eastern restaurants in metro NYC. we came with a part of five and ordered up a large sample of dishes. Everything we tried was one better than the next. Super tasty humus, light, fresh and lemony. I had a stuffed chicken over rice, which was to die for. We tried the mixed grill, shawarma, Middle East platter and several salads.
Very reasonable prices. Simple brightly lit space with a lovely staff.“

“Stopped in for lunch during a conference nearby. The falafel appetizer was filling, tasty, and with just a bit of heat. And the proprieter was delightfully friendly, throwing in a bit of hummus and a pita. A dessert of baklava was sweet without being sickly or cloying or too wet. And the price with a soft drink was less than $12, which is a real bargain. I'll be back again if I'm in the area.“

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

“Your friends will thank you for recommending this place. Their dishes showcase freshness, flavor, and menu diversity. This restaurant is an exciting find!!! I can't recall the last time I was treated this well. The service is personable, the meals tasty, and the location has energy.“

“For a quick lunch on-the-go, NAYA has the perfect options! Their pita pockets are a brilliant idea that I’m glad they’ve brought to the scene, and the flavors they offer are great. I loved the Falafel and Chicken Shawarma Pockets, and their Za’atar Chips went great with the various dips and sauces they offer, my favorite being the Baba Ghanoush. Highly recommend to all!“

“This is a great restaurant. It's casual but the food is very high quality and delicious! My son had the Lava Chicken Shawarma Arabic and I had the Vegan Arabic Sandwich. We got the combo for each (with fries and a drink) and the total price was $40. The vegan sandwich was amazing - lots of vegetables and falafel - all seasoned wonderfully. I think it is the best vegan sandwich I ever had. The chicken shawarma was great too - and plated up beautifully. The restaurant's atmosphere is serene and relaxing. A++.“

“Nice and clean place!! I loved the pizza and the cheese cake!!!!!!!!!!“

“A great option for fresh, tasty, healthy feeling, affordable food on the UWS.

Staff is friendly, restaurant is clean, and the food tastes great.

I usually go with a bowl, depending on how hungry you are you can customize the bowl to have whatever you want in it which is great.“

“Delicious middle eastern food at fair prices!!!“

“Fast service and food tastes soo good“

“The Koshari! Will go back again for sure!“

“Five stars! Cinar Turkish Restaurant exceeded my expectations. The food was authentic, fresh, and packed with flavor. The hospitality was exceptional, making us feel like family from the moment we walked in. Everything from the appetizers to dessert was outstanding. I highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning soon.“

“I like the setup of the food very clean some Buffet places you go to it's nasty and messy this was very impressive and the food was reasonable. I didn't get a lot but it was enough to satisfy me . It was really tasty well seasoned and and freshly made.“

“Delicious and friendly. Been coming here for years and bringing friends who visit from out of town.“

“This restaurant adds something missing from our neighborhood. The food satisfies and the service impresses. Her cheerful approach sincerely transformed my experience. They showcase their specialty effectively. I believe you'll enjoy this spot.“

“I have visited Aden multiple times and have always enjoyed my experiences. Delicious Yemeni food, likely the best in Queens, whether sit down, take-out, or from their street grill, coupled with the friendly service will keep me and my family coming back. Take the poor reviews of this business and set them aside as merely bad judgment on the reviewer's. This is not a fast food restaurant! Expect to wait a little, but you will be satisfied.Their Steinway Halal cart outside offers half chicken and kabobs over rice. Delicious!“

“One of my favorite places in Harlem to hear great music while enjoying food & company!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“food was simply delicious and well served👍❤️❤️❤️ the stuff was amazingly friendly and professional❤️❤️❤️will definitely go back there❤️❤️❤️💐💐💐“

“I can't imagine why I resisted coming here for so long. The area where NAYA exists draws natural foot traffic. The dish balanced lightness with lemon complexity. I discovered the workers were vigilant. NAYA achieves exactly what it aims for.“

“First time there and won’t be the last... amazing flavor, super moist... mm mm good“

“Great food and service combined with a great outdoor dining area. We will be back!“

“I noticed that my order was marked as ready significantly earlier than the provided ETA. While that might seem like a positive thing, it actually resulted in my food sitting out for a while before pickup, making it cold by the time I received it. It would be better if the timing were more aligned so customers can enjoy their food fresh.

Additionally, I’ve observed that the portion sizes seem to be getting smaller over time. Currently, a single order doesn’t feel sufficient for an average adult. In particular, the rice and meat portions are quite limited. It would be great if the default portion sizes could be increased slightly to provide better value and a more satisfying meal.

I hope you can take this feedback into consideration and improve the overall experience.“

“very outstanding service also great food 🍱“

“I think this is the best shawarma i have ever had so far. Chicken platter is good, however, i am pleasantly surprised that the beef platter is also as tasty! The meat is so tender, not dry at all!

Good reasonable portion! Very satisfied 😋😋“

“What a delight!
We eat plant-based so opted for the baba ganoush appetizer and eggplant moussaka. The flavors were alive, wonderful, and deeply enjoyed.
The waiter was attentive and so kind!

They have a sweet outdoor garden space in the back but we enjoyed inside, with all the decor.

What a delicious meal and evening!“

“Food and drinks were delicious and our wait staff was friendly and attentive! Two thumbs up!“
