Incredible service, and food. Accepts takeout and takeout is delicious. Price is solid. For the quantity and quality it's about right. read more

We really like the falafel here. But so disappointed with their platters. We got the Cairo platter which supposedly feeds 2. For approx $35, all we got was a container of rice accompanied by a small amount of meat (maybe 8 grilled cubes of lamb and chicken). There's no way this feeds 2 people. Unless all those people want to eat is plain rice. We feel ripped off and probably won't be going back anymore. read more

Food was amazing, Great Service, The Ambiance was amazing and the staff were so nice. It only took 25 minutes for 3 platters - 2 shish kebabs - one gyro salad Definitely coming here again read more

We've been several times and have always had a great meal. Staff are kind , helpful, and friendly. Everything is fresh. Some of the best falafel I've ever had -- crispy on outside, moist on the inside! Baklava ends the meal on a sweet note. Whether a gyro sandwiches or platter, you'll leave full and satisfied. read more

I was in the mood for a Gyro and decided to try this place. When I walked in I saw brightly colored walls. I placed my order to go. I ordered 2 Beef Gyros they came with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and tzatziki sauce. ( I got their hot sauce on the side.Their hot sauce is very hot.) I also ordered yellow rice, and a Greek Salad. It was very fresh and delicious. My boyfriend enjoyed it so much he said he could've eaten two. Several days later,we came back and placed the same order but this time ordered an additional Gyro. because we enjoyed it so much. Their Yellow Rice was really good and flavorful. I think they use basmati rice. My Greek Salad was also fresh and delicious with lots of feta.This place is Halah. (Made, produced, manufactured, processed, and stored using machinery, equipment, and/or utensils that have been cleaned according to Islamic law.You will not find any pork here.) The manager was very nice, he made good suggestions and was very friendly. His wife was also very nice and friendly. This restaurant is very clean, and bright with a good amount of tables for dining in. There's also a couple of tables outside. They have a wide variety of dishes. I saw some children eating Chicken Tenders and Fries. They have a kids menu. El Waldo Grill offers Chicken,Lamb, and Beef Gyros. You can get it in a pita or on a platter. They have all different kinds of platter's including Seafood Platters. They have delicious falafel. I tried some with their homemade tahini sauce. They serve Burgers, Salads,Sandwiches including Vegetarian Sandwiches. Buffalo Wings, Quesadillas, Popcorn Chicken, All Beef Hot Dogs, Fat Sandwiches for the daring, Milkshakes, Smoothies. and Baklava for dessert. This place is located in the same strip mall as ShopRite and Pets Supply Plus at the far end. There's plenty of free parking. read more

El Wadi has probably become our favorite takeout spot in the area. Food: the salmon platter was delicious. The salmon was perfectly seasoned and had a slight crisp on the outside. The lamb is the best part of the el wadi special. The chicken is really good too. The falafel is spiced nicely, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The rice for both is perfectly cooked and seasoned. It's nice and fluffy. Be sure to get extra white sauce!! Ambiance: it's more of a takeout spot where you go up the counter and order. There are a few tables inside for a quick bite. Service: the people here are extremely nice and our food always comes out quickly. Value: for $17.99, the salmon platter is an amazing value read more

Delicious food, but extremely expensive to the point that it's not even worth getting food here anymore. Just ridiculously over priced. read more

El Wadi Grill - $52 for this meal. a little tiny gyro which was about $20 and Alexandria mix 2 for $32. Insane ! - Mediterranean Near Me - Hillsborough, New Jersey

We stopped by on our way and didn't expect this small place to have such good, tasty and fresh Mediterranean food. The order taker was friendly and nicely explained menu items. Seating place is average but for the kind of food absolutely perfect. Definitely a place to return for some halal Mediterranean food. read more

El Wadi Grill - Mediterranean Mix Platter (2 people) - Mediterranean Near Me - Hillsborough, New Jersey

Food: Their chicken platter is always a good go to! The rice and chicken are nicely seasoned. They make everything fresh, so if you are planning to pick up, I would suggest ordering in advance and take about 20 minutes. Interior: a smaller seating area but usually not crowded. The owners are super friendly! We will be back whenever we crave chicken and rice platter! I would also like to try other items off their menu. read more

El Wadi Grill - Chicken kebab platter - Mediterranean Near Me - Hillsborough, New Jersey

This place is just OK honestly. It's the only place I know in the area that makes a traditional Egyptian dish called Koshari. But it's like a hit or miss. You never know which one you'll get every time you order it. Sometimes it's pretty good. Sometimes the pasta and rice are TOO overcooked and the whole thing is like mush! No one likes mushy pasta.. So that's disappointing. I also tried their lamb gyro and chicken.. Not really a whole lot of flavor. Their lamb kebab is not bad. All in all- I give them 3 stars. Especially given the prices.. I'd expect my food to be fresh, perfectly cooked, and seasoned every time. I haven't tried anything else other than those. So maybe other stuff is better.. read more

A hidden gem!!! The food is delicious and staff is very friendly. I am excited to recommend this spot to my friends and family. read more

El Wadi Grill - El Wadi Special Platter - Mediterranean Near Me - Hillsborough, New Jersey

Food was absolutely delicious! Menu is misleading ordered Cairo platter for "2"; maybe 2 people that aren't hungry. 5 cubes of chicken 5 of lamb small container of rice not enough for a $30 value. The food being really good is the reason why it's not a 1 star read more

I recently found this restaurant on a Facebook group looking to support local restaurants. My husband and I came in at 9 PM (always nice to finally find a place open past 9 pm). The front is deceiving - I was initially put off by the bright red sign and the complex, but I am thrilled that we ventured on in. Both the service and food were excellent! We ordered the Kofta kebab platter and mixed grill. I'm a fan of kebab in general, and this ranks amongst my top 5 ever. The meat is well flavored and juicy. The sauces and rice are near perfect. I'm always looking to support local businesses and both the great food and kind service will keep me coming back. read more

Tried the family platter - it tasted great. Tip: Order directly from their website or via phone and not via yelp; will save you 15%. read more

Great spot to pick up meals! I ordered 2 platters to get a sampling of items, Mediterranean Mix platter (kofta and chicken kebab) and Veggie Mix platter (falafel, baba ganoush and hummus). Order was ready in 25 minutes as expected and packaged neatly in a large paper bag stapled closed. Everything was well seasoned and delicious! Definitely satisfied my craving for falafel and the rice was fluffy and tasty. I will be returning again for sure. read more

Falafel, salmon, and veggie platters were amazing. Service was great. Would def come back to try other dishes.

Solid pickup place if you are in the area. Lots of options. Tad pricy in my opinion for what you get. But what isn't these days. Service is nice. read more

We order take out often. Meals are ready on time and the food is absolutely delicious. The chicken shawarma is my favorite.

Just ordered some gyros (lamb & chicken) for take out. Very flavorful and fresh. Only negative was they were a bit shy on the protein. Small pieces of chicken and lamb hidden in the gyro. Flatbread was good with lots of tomato, lettuce and onion. Tzatziki was also good. Add more chicken etc and you've got a winner. read more

Ordered two large platters for a impromptu get together at home. Every last drop was consumed! Everything was delicious, well seasoned and cooked to perfection! Highly recommend! read more

Food was great. We did a El wadi tray to go and every item were delicious. Service was top notched with them informing us what time food would be ready and then calling us to inform us that food is ready for pick up. read more

Tried the place due to the many stellar reviews in Yelp. Boy were we unimpressed. We ordered takeout - people and service were fine but the food was very disappointing. Taste - just barely okay; nothing to rave about. Value - none what so ever. You will get much better value in other places like Effes and Mamouns. read more

The food here is INCREDIBLE--healthy, delicious and good portion size! The gentleman who took care of us was so nice, the restaurant is clean and tidy, and the fire roasted peppers were a treat! Food, service and ambience--all top rate! read more

We have ordered from here many times since they opened and it's....always delicious!!! I am vegetarian, and my husband is not, but we both always end up happy. I definitely recommend El Wadi grill! read more

El Wadi is absolutely delicious! The staff are super friendly and remember my friend and I every time we go in. We both love to get the el wadi special. She gets it as is, I swap the rice for lettuce. It is amazing. Wonderful chicken shwarma, and the falafel bites are amazing. Prices are very reasonable and the place is relaxing and welcoming. We just love it for lunch or a light dinner. I have to try more menu items, I'm sure they are as delicious as the shwarma. read more

I am not sure exactly where they are located, but I am addicted to this place. I am not sure what they put in their platters, but me nor anyone I have had try them can either. It is a great alternative to Platters. Be warned, their red sauce is spicy. read more

Pretty good options for eating healthy, go for their kebabs. Juicy platters are far better than many other popular places/ known places. There's lot of flavor in their food. Tried lamb, chicken and falafel, all were good. read more
