Hands down the best food in Brooklyn NYC! I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for tasty food with quality customer service.
I met Blue Eyed Brad berry he got me and the boys right we doubted how good the food was but he proved us wrong and served us the best food of my life, wallah amazing food shawarma and falafel is exceptionally delicious, shout out Al Aqsa restaurant’s workers and overall the whole atmosphere. Don’t forget about the delicious aroma filling every corner of the place.
Amazing amazing authentic food, I had tried the hummus and it was amazing. They use olives from Jerusalem and the taste was great, a lot of the food is made in house and with love. I always come here and the workers are helpful and welcoming. I would recommend to others to try!
