“The Most Authentic Egyptian Food in NYC
If you’re looking for REAL Egyptian flavor, you have to try Falafel Bites in Brooklyn! I just went, and honestly… this is the closest taste to home I’ve had in the U.S. Every single dish was fresh, flavorful, and made with true Egyptian soul.

The falafel was perfectly crispy, the koshary tasted exactly like downtown Cairo, and the tahini sauce was on another level. The staff were so warm and welcoming, specially cherry it felt like visiting family.

I’m telling you — this is the best Egyptian restaurant in New York, hands down. If you want authentic Egyptian food that brings you back to the streets of Cairo and Alexandria, this is the place. Highly recommended! 🌟🇪🇬“

“We had a fiftieth birthday party here for two twin brothers. The patio out back is beautiful. The food was great and the waitstaff is wonderful. This is practically its own institution in Floral Park.“

“I’ve been to Turkey many times… I have eaten Lahmacunu there many times… eating yours brought me back to Turkey!!!! ÇOK LEZZETLİ ❗️“

“The food is delicious. Very courteous and friendly staff. Definitely recommend!“

“Amazing experience!! I go here RELIGIOUSLY, no other restaurant compares. I’ve tried other places but always come back to Taza. Their food is fresh, delicious and have a variety of options, not to mention with the best price. All the workers are super nice and are VERY generous with their servings, especially for the bowl. They truly care about their customers happiness. They closed for a few days for renovations and I swear I was having withdrawals. But 10/10, I HIGHLY recommend this place.

“A friend of mine and I had a lovely experience at Laffa Bar and Grill. The outside tent was spacious, the food is plentiful and delicious! I also like the changes they made indoors. It has a very nice ambiance. The Owners are warm and welcoming as well as each of the staff. Service with a smile..how refreshing! The Owners told us they deliver to our town in West Hempstead and cater! Looking forward to going back soon! Keep up the good work everyone!“

Each dish was thoughtfully crafted with a blend of flavors and textures that showcased the culinary expertise of the chefs. The presentation was a work of art, with every plate resembling a canvas that had been painted with exquisite precision.The service was impeccable, with the staff exhibiting a genuine passion for their craft.“

“Service was great, the staff is friendly. Falafel pita was very good and affordable. I would come back!

Update: I was craving samosas and figured this would be the place to go. No regrets! I got the veggie ones and they were great. Not overly spicy and generous filling. The filling had a mashed potatoes texture which I loved.“

“Jap konsideraten dhe rekomandimin me te larte per Nana’s Kitchen ne adresen 1809 Hone ave, Bronx NY per varietete e shumllojshme te ushqimeve tradicionale Shqiptare, per te cilat une se bashku me nje grup shokesh prej 15 vetash shijuam fundjaven e shkuar. Gjeta pas 23 vjetesh ku pergatisin ushqimin ne taven e balte, e po ashtu provuam mish qengji te pjekur, pace, qofte te zgares, sallate fshati e buken qe ne shqiptaret e duam shume qe e pergatisnin vete si dhe u embelsuam me bakllavane plot shije. Sherbimi ishte shembullor dhe lokali ishte i dekoruar me shije duke ruajtur traditen Shqiptare. Falenderojme pronarin Landi Kodra per kenaqesine qe na dha per disa ore ne restorantin e tij. Se shpejti TV Alba Life do te sjelle edhe nje kronike me te plote rreth ketij restorani dhe pershtypjet edhe te klienteve te tjere.“

“I’ve never had Turkish food before but wandered in here. The shrimp casserole was great . Nice folks working here too“

“Fabulousness A must place to go“

“BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE

I placed my order last week and it should have been delivered on Thursday due to the 2nd day air shipping. UPS took an additional 5 DAYS to deliver. I reached out to the customer service and they IMMEDIATELY sent me a new shipment. They responded in a timely manner and were extremely courteous and kind. This is my first time ordering from Hummus Fit, and I was influenced by 5-6 fitness influencers I follow on social media.“

“In the sea of Italian places on Arthur ave is this greek spot. It is pretty authentic which I love. I went with the pork gyro platter and it was amazing. The pork is roasted slowly on the spit and comes out perfect. The platter comes with three dips but I am not a fan of taramosalata (fish roe dip). The others were good. I also loved the greek salad and it was as authentic as you can get. I would recommend and come back.“

“excellent meal this evening. very large portions.. thank you Highly recommend. շնորհակալություն shnorhakalut’yun“

“Atención con calidez y amabilidad. Buena comida mediterránea. Lo recomiendo“

“Love the food specially the desserts!“

“Everything was tasty except the Chicken Caesar Kale salad. It was crunchy from lots of sand particles. The kale must have not been washed well. It ruined the whole salad including chicken and had to throw it out. The Thai shrimp salad was much better.“

“They are great, friendly staff with great food.“

“Delicious food options. Can’t wait to go again.“

“I ordered a side of spinach and a side of broccolini, both dishes were outstanding!!!
Perfectly sautéed (not over done) and extremely tasty!
Not to mention the generous portions!
Stellar service too!!!

The waiter was kind to everyone, total angel.

Also, side note, I notice folks pay more for the fast food in the food court, which is insane (especially when this restaurant is feet away, right by the entrance in terminal 5!)“
