My family and I were on our way to Coney Island, we were looking for a quick bite to eat, we…read morethought we would get donor kebabs in a wrap. This restaurant came up as highly recommended. When we arrived, we were surprised to see that it was a more formal setting as we were looking for something more of a quick takeout type of place. The restaurant is very nice, it has two dining room rooms and sit down service only for the dining rooms. We were approached immediately and sat down at a table by the window. When we explain to the waitress what we were looking for she let us know that we would be able to order gyros or wraps. We ordered two chicken wraps, and one lamb wrap, as well as lamacune. The wraps came with french fries, they were tasty and they came with a white yogurt sauce on the side. The Turkish pizza (lamacune) was delicious, each order has three pieces. The waitress brought us, complementary, hummus and yogurt sauce along with their fresh bread as a starter. Overall, the experience was good and I would go back to this restaurant if I am in the area.

I loved this place but when you do this kind of petty stuff just leaves sour taste in your mouth . I'll moving onto another place sadly . Not to mention when we got the check and were debating it with a friend the servers were walking around starring amd looking one came over to ask what's wrong we mentioned it to her and lying straight to my face that we have always charged for lemons when I always ask for lemons every single time . Not to mention that they raised all their kebab prices by about 2$ per stick they didn't add size , portions but prices went up .

Good food, painfully slow service…read more We ordered for pickup and they said 20 minutes. It ended up being 50 minutes. Anyway, the Greek salad was my favorite part of the meal, it was excellent. The lamb and lulya kebabs were very good. As for the plov, I've had better, I've had worse. The liver cubes were also okay, not great. Their salmon dish with white sauce was very good too. Prices are amazing for these days.

I didn't know the area, but I was starving so decided to do a little loop around the block or so around the train station. I was the only customer to take a seat at the restaurant (although it looked like there was a robust takeout from the table in front on the sidewalk). Every table was set with a place setting and a welcoming setup. The gentleman doing the cooking walked me through my options and ended up preparing this, which I think had every ingredient possible! They were so kind and the food was delicious. I recommend checking it out if you're in the area.

I like the salad bar that has all the offering. The beef kofta was good, but a bit under seasoned as well as the chicken samosa. Beef kofta and lamb over rice tasted a bit healthier by using leaner meat, hence a nicer texture. The chicken tikka was a bit dry and under seasoned as well. I really enjoyed the rice and salad that went along with the meal. The lamb over rice was better tasting than the usually halal cart. I really enjoyed the sauce that was put on the side to go with my meal. I was a bit sad when the beef kofta and chicken tikka didn't come with bread. I will come back for healthier halal option. Also, it was a friendly service.

Crunchy on the outside and the inside had bits of chickpeas and a great texture. The combo of chicken and lamb over rice was a refreshing take. The gyro meat was soft and tasty, rice was seasoned and fluffy. The pickled veggies were delicious and perfect to cut down on the heaviness of the meal. Overall a lovely lunch for $13 total (paid in cash)

Food was okay - I was left unimpressed and still hungry as it was mostly bones - a bit disappointing at a price for over $30 which is more than enough for one person to spend during lunch for himself without a drink. At least the pita bread was good - even though it's Israeli-style instead of Syrian. This Mizrahi (Syrian) Jewish Glatt kosher establishment is unique in New York, so I wanted to try it - but the offerings were a bit skimpy and bland for the price. Lamb spare ribs should come with a side, but none came. And I wasn't asked if I wanted any. Service is an additional issue here. When I went to the bathroom and then left, one worker immediately rushed into the bathroom only to... turn off the lights. Felt a little stingy, especially when the prices of the menu are a bit high for what it is. Had to call someone over multiple times. It's a family-and-friend business and they're often chatting with each other more than with the customers, so I think they're lacking somewhat in the hospitality front. There's a lot of restaurants around and until they seriously start showing what true Middle Eastern hospitality is like to differentiate their restaurant from others, I don't think they're going to do well in the long term. Maybe they've strayed too far from their Syrian roots.
