Middle Eastern Restaurants near Wayne, NJ

“I love their Chicken Pita wrap and wings.Make sure to ask for “double fried” which makes it extra crispy like the Korean Fried Chicken. My favorite sauce of choice always would be honey bbq. The Gyro platter is my second favorite but I will always go for the Chicken Pita wrap because the meat and sauce consistency is excellent.They also have a banana pudding that you cannot forget to buy as a side. I normally hate chunky bananas in my banana pudding but theirs is absolutely my favorite. (No chunky banana’s)The service is okay (that’s where I give it 4.5) there is one guy there that never smiles or laughs I’m not sure what his issue is but every time I went there in the lunch time he never seemed to be welcoming but I never let that affect me. I just come the hours he’s not there. But either way the other employees and owner are fantastic don’t let one mood ruin your whole day.The food is great. Overall I would pick this place when I need my gyro fix in the Wayne area.“

“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!“

“If you're looking for the best Koobideh kebab in New Jersey and New York, Zaffron Bloom is the place to go. Every time I visit, I'm amazed by the deliciousness of the food, especially their Tahdig. The Olivieh salad and Spanish yogurt are also quite tasty. Since it's a family-run business, the owners are incredibly kind and welcoming. I love this place and highly recommend their kebabs!??“

“We went for the first time last Sunday. All I can say is wow. From the wait staff to the kitchen staff to management, everyone was incredibly friendly, unbelievably accommodating when it came to food allergies (they came out to talk about everything in specific detail to make sure it was safe before it was cooked and served), and the food was absolutely delicious!! I would absolutely recommend trying Marakesh out if you haven't been. They will be more than happy to go over the menu and explain anything you might not recognize or need changed because of restrictions. You can also call ahead so it can be prepped ahead of time for you. I will definitely be back again!!“

“Excellent shrimp. The fish special today was very flavorful. And the grilled vegetables: delicious and nutritious!“

“Goes this place doesn't have a higher rating on Google is beyond me. The falefal is a 5 o ut of 5 The rice is the best I've ever had. It's both soft and creamy almost! I'm having the lamb shish kaboblan special. It is juicy and not chewy. Nothing is ever over salted here or overcooked the many times that I've been here. I even drive here for lunch 20 minutes away, even though there's Middle Eastern places a few minutes away from my job. The beef liver is great. Here the baba ganoush and hummus are tasty. Not oily. Very good lentil soup. It really tastes homemade!“

“Huge shout out to Fat Moe’s Mediterranean Food on Rte 23 in Butler. I placed a large order consisting of kebab platter, shawarma cheesesteak sandwich, mixed grill platter, tabouleh salad, stuffed grape leaves, baba ghanoush, cheese borek, and basbousa, accompanied by pickles and sauces,for delivery for 4pm. Not only were they punctual but the food was delicious and reminded me of my days in Egypt where I grew up. Furthermore, at around 5 pm I got a call from Moe, the owner to ask me whether I was satisfied with the order and to let him know how he could make it better… That goes way beyond quality service !! I highly recommend his restaurant and wish him the best of luck !👏👏👏“

“Wonderful atmosphere, welcoming staff, INCREDIBLE food. Please come expierence this place!“

“Fresh and delicious Thank you !💜💜💜“

“I've been coming here for years!!! The most authentic Greek food I've had here in the states. Everything on the menu is a hit. The food takes about 10 minutes if you order in-person. Everything is fresh, tasty, and quality. There is limited seating indoors but plenty of additional seating outside to immerse yourself in the Montclair streetscape. The owner, Efi, is extremely accommodating and professional. She cares deeply about the quality of food and service. I can't recommend this place enough. Fair warning though: you will crave Efi's Gyro after trying it!“

“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 :)“

“Best restaurant in Bergen county and Passaic 👌“

“The shawarma is really great. They work in a very good way“

“It’s really tasty 😋 food and clean atmosphere“

“I had such a wonderful experience at Nablus Sweets! There was a dessert on display that looked amazing, but it usually comes topped with pistachios, which I’m allergic to. I’ve always wanted to try it, and without me asking, the kind gentleman working there actually went out of his way to freshly bake me one without pistachios, even though that’s not how they usually serve it (and it tasted amazing). He didn’t have to, but his kindness and thoughtfulness truly made my day. The desserts are absolutely delicious, but the hospitality here is just as sweet. The staff are very kind and accommodating. Highly recommend this place to anyone in Paterson looking for authentic, freshly made sweets!“

“Actually, the food of this restaurant used to be much better. It's like it changed hands or the chef changed. They really put plenty of scoops on the plates. Free salad comes with the kebabs and open water is served to the table for free.“

“Jerry is the best! He is a special man! He takes pride in every dish. The baba ganoush is my favorite as well as his halvah! A lot more than that is delicious... Yes the falafel too! And it begins with coming into a welcoming, warm place (takeout with some outdoor tables) where people work hard! Prices are very reasonable. Just go and try it!“

“We loved this place! Came once for brunch and once for dinner and both times food was great, fresh, great taste, large portions, nicely presented. We highly recommend this restaurant. The service is excellent as well, the waiters are always ready to go out of their way to make you happy.“

“Simply put: AMAZING! THE BEST!“

“This is the best shawarma in the tris state area. I drive to this place from East Harlem in Manhattan almost twice a month. I like their chicken shawarma so much. Also their French fries are delicious.
The restaurant has a great seating area downstairs and it is family friendly.
Their home-made white ice cream with pistachio is so tasty. Also, the other desserts they serve are so mummy. Great place to eat with the family.

“I stopped by Baklava Home for a quick coffee, but the experience was anything but ordinary. From the moment you step inside, the stunning decor and presentation truly impress. The comfortable seating invites you to linger, and the enticing aroma of freshly baked pastries will definitely whet your appetite.

Ahmed crafted a delicious latte that struck the perfect balance between rich espresso and creamy foam. Choosing from the array of tempting baklava and pastries was a delightful challenge, with each option looking more delicious than the last.

The prices are fair, especially considering the high quality of service and products offered. I highly recommend Baklava Home for anyone looking to enjoy a remarkable cafe experience!“
