Hours !
Kieara S.

This style of food was a nice change from the typical after bar food. We thought the food was well seasoned and a good portion. The white sauce and spicy sauce took it over the top. Right before we got our food I was telling my fiancé "you can tell when someone really cares about the food they sell and when they're just trying to get your money and push you out". This establishment is the perfect example of someone who loves what they do. While waiting in line we saw the workers/owners speaking and holding guinue conversations with each customer. They made sure you liked what you were eating and checked if there was anything you needed. We would definitely return !

It's hard to find good Halal spots in the Heights until a friend of mine told me about Big Bite Shawarma over on Washington Avenue. Tried out their Beef/Chicken Shawarma over Rice and it made my day!!! And Hani over here wants to make sure you're in good hands. Please go support them if you need a good dinner or late night spot. You won't be disappointed.

Chicken Shawarma Wrap

We got the chicken shawarma sandwich and it was flavorful!! One of the best shawarmas I've had since they closed House of Kabob. I usually get extra sauce but this one was perfect. The bread isn't a thick pita bread, so I don't feel overly served on the bread. Hefty amount of chicken and pickles The only downside is that they're not open during lunch Service has been great every time I've come here. And just an FYI, The parking is free if you're just picking up food, I didn't know that.

Very delicious Halal food. The rice and chicken are my favorite. The employees are very nice and attentive. The portions are enough for two, but I won't share, lol. Go check them out. You won't be disappointed.

Dessert menu. Coconut lovers rejoice. This was so decedent! A must try!
Gracie R.

The bas boussa is delicious. A must have dessert, especially if you enjoy coconut! I loved it and will be ordering again. We ordered the gyro over rice and mix over rice which has both lamb and chicken. Everything was seasoned to perfection and the flavors are explosive! We randomly found Big Bite while looking for a place open late. This is the spot for excellent halal food! We met the owner and the customer service was superb. P.S order the hummus! It's made from scratch and it's divine! My friends and I are definitely coming back!!

Chicken Shawarma Over Rice Meal

I found them on yelp and was initially going to get the wrap with fries, but he let me sample the chicken w/ rice. The rice is well seasoned and chicken flavorful. He's usually at the same spot by the bars, so if you're interested in a chicken and rice dish, I'd definitely recommend it, as he gives plenty of food for a great price.

Lamb Mix Over Rice (Gyro & Chicken)

Highly recommend!! The owner was so friendly and helped us figure out exactly what we wanted to order. He even gave us free samples of his delicious rice. It was such a great experience and the food was delicious!

Gyro Sandwich

Having been to Greece, I have an idea of what's authentic and Athena's is the best Greek restaurant…read morein town! I'm surprised I hadn't reviewed them yet, it's our family's go to Greek spot. Friendly atmosphere and service! Great for both dates AND family (as seemingly only Greek and Italian places do best). Of course I can't go to a Greek restaurant and not start with appetizers. Their feta and olives are fantastic! For a main, try their lamb shank-- super tender and flavorful.

I had the lamb shank for lunch one day with my chosen side dish of Greek potatoes for $23. The meal…read morecame with a nice side salad to start along with some buttered bread. When the entree arrived I thought the lamb shank looked small. Taste wise it was good but I have had better. Also the potatoes were as advertised however their appearance and taste to me was average. If I ordered this meal again I would order another side dish perhaps the rice. This meal was a 3.5. Another visit was for dinner was to try the Kokkinisto entree for $21. Again this meal comes with the same enjoyable side salad with bread and I chose the Briami as the supplied side dish. The Kokkinisto (Greek beef stew) arrived on a bed of rice and covered in its herbed tomato sauce with garlic and onions. The Briami was in a separate bowl of stewed veggies in a light tomato sauce. I liked this meal better. The stew had good flavor with tender beef and a tasty red sauce. Also the veggies were good tasting too. I gave this meal a 4. Finally the waitress was very friendly. I believe her name was Jennifer? I like this restaurant and believe they serve good tasting and authentic Greek food.

The waitress poured us some water while we waited which was so thoughtful. You couldn't ask for better service.

The ingredients tasted fresh and we enjoyed them very much. Thank you to Pasha's owner(s) and staff for a great meal and excellent service!

Only one other table was occupied, and someone who seemed to be the owner warmly greeted my group of 5 with some menus and an offer for Turkish coffee and tea. The lunch special is quite generous, and includes a wide array of starters and entrees. With 5 people, we tried 5 different appetizers and 5 different entrees and got a good sampling of their menu. The chicken shish kebab, falafel, lamb kebab, and menemen were all well seasoned and paired nicely with the many dishes of rice, salad, and flatbread they all came with. The lentil soup was also delicious. I was with my parents, who really only have a desire to eat East and Southeast Asian food, but they still enjoyed our meal here, which is saying a lot.

Istanbul was an average experience for me. There are very limited vegetarian options and I was sad…read moreto see that falafel sandwiches are only offered until 4pm. The only two entrees I could see were a falafel plate and a cheese pida for vegetarians. I opted for the the cheese pida and a salad as I felt like my dinner needed some vegetables. The salad was plain tasting consisting of a lemon based dressing and cubes of tomato, cucumber, bell pepper. The dressing was not strong and I wished it had more flavor. I took it home and added my own dressing from home the next day. It's unfortunate that they charge an additional $1.50 for feta cheese which would have elevated the salad flavor. The cheese pide was good and a very large portion size. I wish there were some vegetables added however. The dough was delicious. Istanbul grill does make good bread. The pita bread was also good, very soft, and tasted fresh. It was busy on a Saturday night. Decor is minimal inside and ambiance was family friendly. Most of the tables were families with children. I will note that the interior was on the warmer side for a November night. Overall likely would not return just because of limited vegetarian food.
