“The most amazing and delicious Turkish Breakfast I ever had. Not only in New Jersey area. I’ve tried lots of places in the Tri-State area and it’s definitely 5 Stars. Everything is homemade. There’s a lot of food when you order Turkish Breakfast. The cheese on the platter is very rich. Definitely try the Turkish eggy toast. It’s absolutely so yummy. It’s only on Sundays 10:00am-2:00pm. The atmosphere is fantastic. Especially for any kind of showers or parties. I’ve found out they have 2 more locations in Cliffside Park,NJ & Livingston,NJ as well. The owner is super nice and he welcomes and is so polite to customers. The prices are very reasonable. They have a huge parking lot. Handicapped customers are welcome to restrooms and parking lot.“

“Great place. I recommend kufta wrap. And their rice pudding is sweet and good. Today I ate here. Had a good time. If ur new to Greek I’d stick to basics. I had something called yougart kufta. Overall, it was good. Little spicy so I wouldn’t recommend to most ppl unless u like spicey. I would just replace the bread and hot sauce with some veggies and white sauce. Appetizer—There beet root falafel with hummus and idk the baige colored sauce is really good. I come here for pick up. It’s a good spot. Enjoy.“

“Delicious meals, fast courteous service!“

“Tequila Bistro Hosted One Incredible Night for Team Ed Rodriguez We recently held a meet-and-greet for Assembly candidate Ed Rodriguez at Tequila Bistro in Elizabeth—and let’s just say, Ed raved about the food beforehand, and he wasn’t wrong. From the moment we stepped into the warm, inviting space—with its glowing string lights, rich Spanish tiles, and that cozy outdoor patio—it was clear this was more than just a restaurant. It was an experience. The crowd came for conversation, but the Mediterranean and Spanish flavors stole the show. From the perfectly grilled seafood to the paella that had people going back for seconds (and thirds), every bite was unforgettable. The crab-stuffed salmon? Game-changer. And then there’s the bar—a destination in itself. Sophisticated, generous, and buzzing with good energy. The sangria flowed, the handcrafted cocktails were on point, and the vibes matched the moment. The staff made us feel like family. They handled a busy room full of guests with warmth, precision, and genuine hospitality.“

“Great tasting food. Good choices of food. The bartender rock. The piano man is superb. I give it a"9".“

“I ate good. They park at a nice spot for walking traffic. Looks like good people and rating reflects their quality. Salchipapas went so flipping hard.Hello again, I tried the chicken parm wrap and the chicken+marinara melted in my mouth. The chicken was delicious and hot. Gonna try and eat everything there over time (except spicy food )Also the snicker bar was 25 cents cheaper than the lame rutger vending machines, but 25 cents more pricier than njit vending machine ?. It was $2.“

“Such great and delicious food! The owner and staff were super respectful and kind. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more Persian dishes, the flavors are so rich and unique, with amazing herbs, saffron, and slow-cooked stews(I had Ghormeh Sabzi) and Kabab Soltani with the delicious well cooked long grain rice. Highly recommend!“

“Best gyros that you can find on Staten Island!“

“New to town. Checking out falafel in the area. Came upon The falafel guy on my walk home from YMCA. A small mostly take out joint with Mousa, the master, running the show. Don’t expect the fastest service because everything is made to order. Falafel was top notch. While you’re waiting, don’t be surprised if Mousa offers you a small cup of the soup he’s cooking for the day. His lentil soup was spiced just right and delicious. Prices are reasonable as well!“

“Love ❤️ Food nice in clean“

“We ordered Cairo Falafel through Uber Eats, and overall it was a really great experience! The platters were flavorful and filling, but the absolute standout for me was the grilled veggie pita with fresh hummus. I honestly haven’t had anything like it before — the vegetables were perfectly charred, the pita was soft and warm, and the hummus tied everything together so well. Just thinking about it now has my mouth watering.

The only downside was the falafel. While they had good flavor, the texture was a little too dry, and they didn’t have that “wow” factor I was hoping for. Given the name, I expected them to shine more, but they fell short compared to the other items we tried.

That said, the overall meal was delicious, and I’ll absolutely be ordering again. Cairo Falafel clearly does a lot of things right, and I’m already looking forward to having that veggie pita again soon!“

“These guys are the BEST!!!!! Every single item in the menu is sooooo delicious!!!! I go there quite often since I discovered it!!!! The price is very fair. They only accept cash and Venmo however, so if you don’t know that prior to arriving- it could be a little turn off. However, there is a local shop with an atm nearby where you can withdraw cash from!!!! I do not recommend leaving only because you don’t have cash, because the food is AMAZING!!!!!! You can eat outside, they have a few tables and chairs!!! I usually go there for take-out!“
