I was visiting my in-laws in Brooklyn and searched for the best hummus in Bay Ridge. No surprise Al Aqsa Bakery popped up. With a name like that, I had a good feeling, so I headed over. And wow it lived up to the hype. The hummus was incredibly creamy and authentic, and the pita? Soft, warm, and perfect. I also tried their mixed shawarma, which was solid. There’s a small seating area—nothing fancy but honestly, those are usually the best kinds of spots.
So far this is hands down the best shawarma in the city. Very authentic and delicious. Portions are generous and prices are worth it. The owner is very generous and gave each of us (4 people) free falafel and dessert snacks. If you want authentic middle eastern shawarma then you gotta come here. Soon they will offer different charcoal grilled meats. Can’t wait
Al Aqsa is well-deservedly famous for their shawarma. It's crispy, salty, and filling. Of equal stature is their falafel. Not to mention, they offer freshly baked Palestinian bread loaves and ka'ak for people looking to bring fresh Palestinian baked goods home.
Ambience is inspiring as it speaks for social justice in Palestine. Service is beautiful; it's a treat to have...
