Al Aqsa is a small restaurant in Bay Ridge known for its delicious hummus and falafel. The homemade bread, baked daily on site, enhances the intense flavors. The staff is friendly and attentive, offering a seasoned falafel with hummus while you wait. This Palestinian establishment primarily offers take-out but also provides quick, consistent, and authentic dishes. Customers praise the falafel, which some consider among the best in NYC, along with the shawarma and chicken kebabs. The restaurant also offers fresh toppings and appetizers, although they sometimes run out of pies, zaatar, and cheese and spinach varieties. Despite its decor reflecting the current war, many find it culturally significant and interesting. Visitors appreciate the welcoming atmosphere and the high quality of the food, making it a great spot for anyone exploring Bay Ridge’s culinary scene.
