    Mixed Wrap
    George B.

    It looks stuffed, but honestly, it wasn't. I thought it was tasty but it lacked in protein. You get a big tortilla wrap stuffed with one scoop of the meats and everything else . Came with a side of white and red sauce, which I thought was pretty good as well.

    First time trying this spot and it was just as delicious as their Harrison location! Ordered the chicken pita, with fries, a side of plantain, and a classic bottle of Coca-Cola. Wasn't able to eat it right away and it was still so "juicy" and yummy! Drizzled the white sauce on top...omg! The fries and plantain was good too! Food was very satisfying! The employees there were nice and greeted when you entered. Inside was also clean to dine in.

    I was in the area and had a craving for a gyro so I search for places in the area and found juicy. It is in a small shopping center with plenty of parking. They are following mask requirements and socially distanced seating. There was a table outside to eat as well. If you aren't familiar with the difference between platters, wraps, pita, etc. check out the menu ahead of time. The cashier greeted us immediately and was very patient as we made our decision and easily answered all of our questions. I went with the Gyro pita and my daughter got the chicken pita with french fries. Our order was completed quickly and I was excited to get home to eat. Everything was super yummy, the meat was moist and well seasoned and beware that the hot sauce is really really hot AF. They want you so don't say you haven't warned. When I'm in the area again I will definitely be back!

    Made a return trip for lunch on this Good Friday at Juicy! located at a shopping mall in Hackensack. The food is healthy with a Mediterranean genuinely flavor. The menu is mix and match: choose a base (platter, salad, pita, or wrap), a protein (or falafel ), add toppings, then add sides and sauce. I ordered the falafel platter which contained generous portion of falafel (deep fried balls or fritters made from ground chickpeas), sautéed onions, whole sliced pita bread, lettuce, and rice. Complimentary sauces of tahini and hot sauce were given to accompany the meal. The food is tasty and flavorful. The portion size is great and the employees are friendly. As a Yelper Elite, the establishment offers a complimentary drink. Definitely will be returning as this is now my favorite Halal spot.

    This was my 1st visit to Juicy Platters but I have been to similar restaurants which were okay but not especially note worthy. I totally enjoyed my meal especially the spice level. I had the mixed platter adding tomatoes and spicy chick peas for a small additional charge. We shared a side order of fries and each had a fountain drink. We both added a healthy dose of white sauce to our meals and dug in. It was very filling and flavorful. I would have liked more drink options

    After visiting a Juicy location for an Elite event last winter I decided to try the one in Hackensack last night as I was headed out to the breweries. A little food before eating makes for a safer night. This location is a little larger but didn't seem to have organized the counter as well. They didn't carry Bubly flavored seltzer water as the other location did, however I decided to just have a bottle of water. I ordered a pita with chicken and beef with all the fixins with a side of falafel bites. My wife ordered the plate with brown rice, a greens blast and falafel. This was one great meal. The food was absolutely delicious. The greens in my wife's plate were so perfectly done they mixed really well with the rice and the falafel. The beef and chicken in the pita was spicy and oh so good! The best part of this place are the prices, great freshly made food for a fair price. This place gives new meaning to fast food, it is truly outstanding. I only wish they would open a location closer to my home. After enjoying a good meal I was ready for the brewery.

    It's like chipotle for Mediterranean food. You pick if you want a pita or a bowl which means your topping over rice. If you choose rice it's the basami(?) rice and the. You can pick beef or chicken or both and add tomatoes, lettuce, white sauce that is tangy, big olives... if you choose the pita is the same but They put its on top of a pita. The pita is what I had an it was messy. Good thing I ate it inside because i used a fork. If I would of tried to eat it like a burrito we would of had issues! Decent food. Your order and sit down and they call you to pick it up from the counter. $10 a person. I didn't like the rice though. It tasted curry-ish go

    Finally got around to trying this place after hearing good things and it did not disappoint. Big bowl of food, tender meats, delicious white sauce...it rates up there with my favorite NYC halal cart. Will have to put it into my rotation. Ordered/paid online while I was in stop and shop for 10 minutes and it was ready for pickup when I was done!

    My mixed platter, all dolled up and ready for me to eat!

The baba ghanoush was everything I love in a good eggplant dip and was a definite win in our book - seasoned, textured, and slightly smokey. We intuited this would be delicious by getting two containers of it, and this turned out to be a great life choice. Chicken adana is a fan favorite in our house, and it's done pretty well here. They're like elongated loaves of marinated and spiced ground chicken, and delicious with rice and a dollop of yogurt sauce. We preferred these over the chicken kebab, which were just as flavorful but quite a bit drier. Both entrees were served with a grilled tomato and pepper, which were still warm and charred from the grill. They also came with small side salads, with lightly dressed and slightly wilted greens. My husband appreciated the extra veggies with our meal, but I far preferred the warm and soft pita rounds.

The menu is simple, but covers everything we love. Server came by with warm, fresh, fluffy seasoned pita and a dish of seasoned olive oil. Great start. Started with Cheese Borek and Fried Liver cubes -- The Borek was the best we have had and we order that anytime we dine Mediterrean. The 4 Borek were fat, fried to perfection, and their filling of Feta and spinach was hot, melty and super tasty. We love love Fried Liver, and Lulu does it to perfection. The portion was huge, and dressed with red onion and lemon juice, it sang. We decided to split an order of Manti, those delightful tiny lamb dumplings tossed with burnt butter and garlic yogurt -- holy holy. We ran some liver around that sauce, and were glad we saved some of the bread to sop everything up. So good. Ordered the Kunefe, as we always do. It takes about 15 minutes to get to the table -- so if you are thinking about it, order it before they take your dinner plates away. The Kunefe was good. We think they forgot to add to the syrup it comes in -- but maybe that's the way they do it. It won't disappoint, but I missed that rosewater sugar syrup we are used to. Different places, different recipes. In all, Lulu did not disappoint and we look forward to visiting again. Go, go go. And tip your servers well.

The menu length reminds me a bit of a diner menu in comparison to the usual Greek menu. There are pitas/gyros, platters, entrees, apps, salads and soups. There are also a few things on the menu that don't belong on a Greek menu: burger, quesadillas, and chicken francese; I'm not sure what to think about this but it would be something picky eaters could have! I enjoyed the spanakopita platter with fries and grilled veggies (spanakopita didn't have a strong taste, grilled veggies of zucchini, carrots, onions were soft and perhaps slightly overcooked but good). The shrimp souvlaki platter with mashed potatoes and rice was also tasty. Most platters come with two sides. They also give you complimentary hummus with pita bread. Service was nice and not pushy. The decor is pretty casual with some Greek art and knick knacks around, along with plenty of pictures of the chef. Their website isn't that great and seems more catered to to-go orders. It's located on a street with a few other places like a pizza spot but there are also a lot of empty storefronts. Street and metered parking before 8 pm. Given its location, not sure I'd be back anytime soon but I recommend!

One had eaten and taken out from here before and liked it, so we called, didn't need a reservation, off we went. At about 5:15, give or take, we were the first patrons there. It's a lovely large space, warmly decorated with tables and some banquettes. We chose a 4-top kind of right in the center! Comfy chairs, btw. The menu isn't strictly Greek or Lebanese or Turkish, kind of a combo of good choices from those cuisines. We started with an appetizer called Tinos Artichoke. Very interesting, served with small warm fresh wedges of pita plus a cup of deliciously seasoned pita chips. It's a dip of mashed artichokes with Greek yogurt, sun dried tomatoes, parsley, garlic, feta. S tasty! It's a great portion to share among several people. My friends each ordered the chicken soup with vegetables for appetizers. Quite a nice sized bowl for the price; I love avgolemono, if that's what it was (I didn't taste it), just didn't feel like having soup. They both liked it very much and then they were pretty full! I ordered two appetizers for my meal - Symi Shrimp and Grilled Halloumi. Excellent choices, and they worked really well together as a meal! The 2 slabs of perfectly cooked halloumi are served on a bed of romaine lettuce and some threads of carrot. The shrimp are small, very lightly breaded and deliciously seasoned; menu says garlic, lemon, but they were reddish so I suspect maybe paprika as well or cayenne + paprika (not hot but not bland), shredded feta sprinkled liberally on top. I'm a big eater, but after the appetizer I wasn't able to finish my meal; today I reheated in the toaster oven for a lunch treat! One friend had just the Symi shrimp as her meal; the soup had filled her up and she also took some home. Our other friend had the chicken shish. This came as a really well-balanced plate, with plenty of cubes of chicken, rice, and veggies. We ALL had to-go bags! Appetizer portions, just based on the appetizers we were served, are ample for sharing. Didn't stay for dessert, as I had a train to catch back into the City. When I'm out in Bergen County again, I'll think about coming back. If you live in the area, GO, It's very good and not exorbitantly priced.

Or, a mix of grilled octopus, grilled calamari and a salad. Everything is very flavorful and goes great with the pita bread. Our calamari was a little chewy this last visit, which surprised me. It's never like that. Octopus is always tender and comes with tasty charred onions, peppers, caperberries. Other delicious dishes here - chicken shish, the steak, gyro, grilled shrimp, lamb shish. Lately they've been decorating tables with fresh flowers - nice touch and complements the candles.
