Got a 2 Good to Go box here. The meal was fine, felt mostly like a hot food bar leftover mix of rice, chicken, and a saucy vegetable medley. Chicken was dry. I kind of wished it would be the juicy rotisserie chicken I read other reviews on. But I also ordered a separate side of hummus and grape leaves and wow, these were delicious. Grape leaves were flavorful and filled with rice and vegetable the guy said, but it felt mostly like rice to me. The hummus was the best thing I ate. 10/10. So creamy, buttery light, almost whipped, so fresh and good! I never want store brand hummus again! $5 for a small, which is quite a big size dish that will last me for days, so 100% worth it. I would get this again. The actual 2 Good to Go platter was not my fave, but I'm so glad I got that hummus and grape leaves. Both were $5 and a big portion, so very good deal. Service was fine. Ambiance is very casual, narrow walkway with the food display on one side and bar stool/counter top on the other side, with a little middle eastern style market and butcher bar in the back. read more

Al Nour - Grape leaves, hummus - Lebanese Near Me - Astoria, New York

See all

Al Nour is a small neighborhood ethnic grocery store which sells various middke eastern/south asian products including halal meat. The front of the store is a restaurant with steam trays and kebabs. There are a few counter seats for dine in. We had the steam tray plate which comes with a choice of three dishes. They were ok, would not have it again though since it was a bit bland. Will probably try the kebabs next time. The meat section looks fresh though. read more

Al Nour - 3 choice lunch plate - Lebanese Near Me - Astoria, New York

We were craving a shawarma wrap and found this spot. They have a grocery section, butcher shop in the back of halal meats and they have a hot food bar too. They have some seating available for you to eat in too. My husband and I ordered a chicken shawarma to share. - Chicken Shawarma: we ordered without onions. The shawarma came with fries, lettuce, tomatoes, hummus, and garlic sauce. This was a pretty overwhelming combination to me and my husband. So many flavors mixed together. The chicken was delicious- perfectly cooked, moist, and very well seasoned. I ended up picking at the shawarma halfway through and just eating the chicken pieces. Based on typical Lebanese shawarma standards, the fries didn't taste fresh (they seemed like they'd been sitting out), and there was something in the shawarma that had a bit of a refrigerated taste (probably the hummus). I'm giving it 4 stars because what we had was a traditional Lebanese-style shawarma. While we personally would've preferred a simpler wrap with just chicken, pickles, and garlic sauce, that's on us- we came to the wrong spot for that, but we also could've asked for it with just those components. read more

Beware customers .. Do not buy there ready marinated chicken kebab Although it may look fresh . You will be surprised I went home and it was not fresh at all They been using expired chicken And covering it with seasoning I'm left with food poisoning This place needs to be looked at by a inspector because they're not sanitary read more

This restaurant gave me exactly what I wanted. The atmosphere makes dining better and the service matches. This standard of attention is increasingly uncommon. Every menu choice I've made has been rewarding. This place creates flavors that leave a mark. read more

great food and great prices, lovely family owned business. great for a quick bite or some fresh meat.

An excellent middle Eastern restaurant in Woodside/Astoria. The babaganoush was the start, smoky and smooth, perfect with pita. The salads were all fresh and refreshingly lightly dressed. The family meal included 12 kabobs and the beef and Adana kabobs were standout. Moist and will seasoned with a nice char on the outside. read more

Decent food to grab while doing your quick shopping. Wish the food had been more flavored and was fresher. Definitely check out their chocolate section to get some unique cand. Mera's Tip: pick up a lion bar read more

This has been my hidden gem off Steinway since it was called the Cedars and the shawarma in pita was only $3.50. Line everything else the prices aren't quite that cheap but still very reasonable compared to the rest of the World. Any of the pita sandwiches are fantastic but the true Beaty is at the steam table. For $10 they'll stuff the container with any combo of your choice until it can barely close. And those choices are diverse and delicious. This is real home style Lebanese cooking. Or at least what I would imagine that to be if I had a Lebanese mother could really cook. I'd list sone of my favorites but really everything is tasty and satisfying. The kibbe is also so good to snack on. They also are a middle easter grocery so I can pick up provisions for home on my lunch break. Nice people working here too. It's places like Al Nour that remind me that it's the un curated establishments make the NYC food scene. read more

I ordered through the app TooGoodToGo, which made this an experience that I wasn't sure how would end. I am happy to say that it was a great experience. I ordered two platters with the app and the amount of food I was given and the quality of the food I was given exceeded my expectations. The chicken platter was rice and chicken and spinach lemon dish. It was delicious . The meat dish that I had was pasta and eggplant dish, with a surprise of stuffed lamb intestines . I could not eat everything at once and it's lasted me three days. The server is a typical surly character but I never expect to get friendly customer service in a place that is predominantly served by one particular culture. Especially in but the young women that was serving in the grocery section was lovely , respectful and efficient. I will definitely go there again. Was overall an enjoyable experience. The only reason I'm not giving it five stars is because the surly character made me feel quite uncomfortable as a female. read more

Great food at a great price. Customer service is terrible especially if you're non-arab. Perhaps its the general misery of the guy making orders. But god forbid you ask for sauce. He seems to think one small container of sauce is enough for 3 platters. If you ask for more he will argue that one is enough. If you order via delivery app no matter how many notes you put you will get no sauce read more

The buffet gave me food poisoning almost immediately after eating it. Spent the next 72 hours very ill.

Nothing about this place is good. Food is flavorless and overpriced. Service is terrible. Store/restaurant Filled with smoke and no ventilation read more

Al Nour - Al Nour platter. Enough to for 2 ppl - Lebanese Near Me - Astoria, New York

Small place but great food, as expected from most middle eastern joints in Astoria. I tried a chicken kebab sandwich ($5) which had freshly chargrilled kebab, toum, tomato, green + pink pickles, tomato and onion with parsley. Amazingly tasty and so filling! I ordered a chicken shawarma platter ($10) to-go, which included hummus, toum, rice, veggies, pita and a TON of chicken. Makes well for 2 meals! Owners are also kind people. Definitely a new staple in Astoria for me. read more

Al Nour - a meal in a plastic container - Lebanese Near Me - Astoria, New York

I don't know if it's the quality of ingredients... or the man that made my gyro has the hands of an angel... but it was the most delicious thing I've ever had in my entire life. I had a beef something for the far right menu for SIX BUCKS!!!! I was totally satisfied, would eat there every day of I could!! read more

We ordered a family pack and not everything came. Requested for certain things did not come. Called the store about what they can do, hung up on us, which is terrible customer service. I've had better food than this. One of my favorites has always been the chicken shish, but theirs has a heavy burnt taste. Hummus was really bland. Would never order from here again. read more

This is one of my go to spots in Astoria for chicken shawarma and garlic sauce! $6 for a chicken shawarma wrap with tons of good flavors. If you really like potent strong garlic paste to dip pita in then this is your place to go. It is strong and so yummy! Can't find any other place in Astoria with as good of garlic paste. read more

Delicious, clean, home style food. Good prices. Friendly, polite, easy going, and gentle interactions. The place also has a variety of Mediterranean groceries. read more

Very disappointed in this place. I go there often to pick up Arabic groceries and on more than one occasion, I saw the workers there not wearing masks. Today not only was the guy behind the counter not wearing a mask but even the customers were not wearing masks either. I was completely turned off and left like walking out. Don't think I'll be going back! This is unacceptable. read more

I had the combo platter which came with beef and chicken that was great. Also came with salad, pita, rice, hummus and pickles. The staff was very informative and attentive. On my way out I grabbed some desserts and meat pies. Everything was tasty I will definitely be going back. read more

Service was great, food was just ok (kind of lacking in flavor tbh) & they didn't have a lot of things that were listed on the menu. With all the Middle Eastern food available in the area, I would say just go someplace else. read more

Seems like a few people overheard what I heard today. To the owner your staff is rude and disgusting. I will never go to this establishment again!! read more
