Ayat Staten Island Reviews
Bland food that tastes as if it’s been sitting in the fridge for weeks, and the wait staff operate like they don’t understand the basics of service.
Not sure how this place is still in biz other than maybe the other patrons, who frankly look more like illegal jihadists than New Yorkers.
They support Palestine, which means that there can't be a decent person to eat there.
I have visited the Allentown location several times. The food is always great, but what’s even better is the feeling of warmth the staff and owners emit. Everyone has always been so incredibly kind and attentive. Excellent food and service!

Based on the reviews, Ayat Staten Island offers good foods and services with reasonable prices. The restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere with a tropical vibe, lots of leaves, trees, and plants. The food is described as amazing, authentic, and consistently delicious. Specific meals mentioned include the mixed appetizer platter, which was fresh and flavorful, the well-seasoned and tender kefta, and the standout branzino that was extremely fresh, juicy, and full of flavor. The spicy chicken kebab was grilled to perfection with amazing rice and crunchy fries. Every dish is full of flavor and served fresh, with vibrant presentation and generous portions. The service is excellent, with friendly and welcoming staff who go above and beyond to make guests feel special, whether for a casual dinner or a milestone celebration. The restaurant offers one of the best halal dining experiences in Staten Island. However, the restaurant needs to improve the cleaning, as the two rest rooms are not well maintained and it is always busy.
