    The taste of the food was lacking flavor. The portions are decent but did not suffice for the taste of the food.

    I rarely write reviews. This area of NJ has middle eastern cuisine scattered every few blocks and…read moreit's all pretty solid and some great. Alhara Schawarma was fantastic as soon as I walked in. Told the owner I'd never been before but had walked by numerous times, and he said let's change that. Had a beef/lamb schawarma sandwich with crispy Saj bread - thinner than a tortilla - fries and then drizzled with pomegranate sauce that breaks the savory and salty flavors in the sandwich. Delicious. Served with plastic gloves as the "pomegranate can make it messy", but probably wasn't needed but a nice touch nevertheless. Also had cup of lentil soup served with lemon, was very nice. The owner wanted me to try the chicken schawarma, so gave me a small cup. Delicious. My new favorite find in the Parsippany area.

    What a delightful discovery!…read more I was on a road trip from Vermont to West Virginia, and searched Yelp for a gyro/shawarma joint near my hotel. I found Alhara Shawarma and decided to try it. I'm so glad I did! The pomegranate sauce on the lamb/beef shawarma was amazing! The shawarma was wrapped in some sort of flatbread that was closer to a tortilla than a pita. I'm assuming it's a traditional Syrian bread, and it was delicious! I saw the meat rotating on a vertical spit in the kitchen, and I immediately knew that it was going to be far better than any grill-fried processed meat product. While I prefer an all-lamb shawarma, the lamb and beef was fantastic. The pomegranate sauce was an extra surprise. I love pomegranates! The tartness and mild sweetness of the sauce complimented the earthy taste of the meat. I tried the pomegranate ginger ale, which I think was imported, since it had Arabic writing on it. I loved it. Whenever I'm eating somewhere new, I will usually order something that I don't know. I'm usually pleasantly surprised, and that was true this time, too. I can't get to the menu while I'm writing this review, but I ended up getting something that turned out to be pita bread with a yogurt-based sauce that reminded me of tzatziki. It was perfect for dipping my fries into. The staff was super friendly. I placed an order to go, then went out to the sidewalk to wait for my order with my dog. Even though I told the guy who took my order that I would come in and pick it up, he brought it out to me. I didn't stay long inside, but the dining area was clean, and the kitchen looked clean, too. I'm so happy I skipped the rest area restaurants and got something unique for dinner. I will definitely be returning!

It's located right in the heart of everything, making it super convenient no matter where you're coming from. This is a must-visit spot for birthdays, anniversaries, or any special occasion. Dining here feels like an experience, not just a meal. The space is open, beautifully designed, and truly transports you--I honestly felt like I had been taken straight to Naxos. It's definitely on the upscale side, and you can tell they prioritize quality. We ordered several appetizers, and everything tasted incredibly fresh--from the fruits and vegetables to the meats. Our waiter was so kind and helped guide us through the menu with great recommendations. I ordered the steak, and it was cooked perfectly. But our favorite had to be the bread served with olive oil, olives, and hummus. It was such a unique and thoughtful touch--something we hadn't seen done quite like that before. And the hummus? Clearly homemade and unbelievably fresh. I'm usually not a hummus fan at all, but I tried theirs and absolutely loved it.

Their lunchtime buffet is incredible and offers a TON of choices that are sure to satisfy all of your cravings. I know this because they sure do satisfy mine.    I've always been a huge fan of businesses that open up at the time their hours are posted. Here that's always the case, plus when they do open for the day they're all set up and Ready to Rock!! The staff here must be working all night long or something to be able to pull that amazing task off, super impressive. Gotta say too they're really cool people who are very friendly and that's the other reason I like stopping in. Alright I only get a half hour for Lunch so lemme Dig In you can figure out the rest by yourselves, lol Come And Get Your Munch On!!
