Visited The Olive Bistro for dinner on a Friday. We made a reservation for 8, so we were seated as…read moresoon as we arrived. It's a nice restaurant, very modern and comfortable. We immediately placed the order for the lamb makluba, knowing that it would take about 45 minutes to prepare. We also ordered the tabouleh, Za'atar & Cheese, the Olive Bistro Spread, and mixed grill for 4. The Za'atar & Cheese was like a pizza, minus tomato sauce. The Olive Bistro Spread came with hummus, baba ghanouj, labneh, muhammara, two cheese rolls, and two fried kibbeh, accompanied by warm pita bread. It was a lot of food, my favorite dip was the labneh. Mix Grill for 4 came with six kofta kebabs, two shish kebabs, and four chicken kebabs, served alongside tender beef shawarma, grilled vegetables, house rice, and warm spicy bread. It was a lot of food. Some meats were overcooked though, and I prefer other mixed grills I've gotten at other Arabic restaurants. My favorite item was the lamb makluba, which had a seasoned rice with extremely tender bone in lamb chunks. I'd get just the makluba and maybe an appetizer next time so I'd have way less leftovers.

This spot has shifted my framework of what a 5-star experience should be. The $20 lunch special is…read morea phenomenal deal in terms of portions (comes with a side + pita, soup or salad, an entree, and a drink). But then, the food itself was also prepared extremely well and with care. I got the chicken shawarma accompanied by baba ganoush and the freekah soup. I was delightedly surprised by the freekah soup and its warm, rich cardamom flavor. The chicken shawarma was also very juicy and savory. Our server was excellent and checked in on us quite a bit to ensure we had everything we needed. We enjoyed the calm atmosphere and pleasant music playing in the background. Upon packing our leftovers, we were even given some additional pita and olives to-go, which was an extra friendly touch to our wholesome meal. Would highly recommend this place, and we'll be back again soon!

For example, the chicken was just tough and another chicken dish was full of bones. The daal was watery and the pakaoras were cold. This is not acceptable. Service - non-existent. Other than bringing out bottled water that they charged us for, never saw the server again. We just kept piling up the plates on the table and that was that. Cleanliness - not good. The tables and the floor were grimy and the bathroom was horrendous, which says a lot since we were there at lunch. How bad could've it have gotten in the 30 to 45 minutes that they had been open? That tells you they do not clean. But what got to me was their dishonesty in pricing. The guy at the register charged me more and when I questioned him, he said that the prices had changed. I paid whatever he asked because I knew I was never going to go back and a few dollars did not matter, but when you have someone running a business in such an unethical manner, that is not a place you want to recommend or ever visit again.

Durum Doner is pretty close to the gym i go to which is good...and very bad! Lol Anyway, when i arrived I didnt notice the place right away and had to do a couple of turns. Inside was nice and cozy. It wasnt a very large place but had enough space to accommodate maybe 10-15 people? There is also outside seating. I bet its nice during a nice sunny weather. As you can see in the photos submitted by many Yelpers, the food looks very good! One of the things that caught my attention was actually how they prepare their plates and how nicely the meats were cooked. When i tasted my orders, they did not disappoint one bit! Chicken and beef were very flavorful and the smell that wafted inside the car as i was bringing them home was sooo darn good it was almost torture. The rice that came with the beef and chicken gyro was flavorful for some reason and the mix of "noodle strings?" was surprisingly very good. Pita bread was nice and soft although became a bit soggy after since it was placed below the meat. Perhaps it was also to catch the oil? Hmm. But either way, i was a happy customer today and ate my big fill...Fyi after a workout. Not good!! But sometimes you just have to be bad right? Will definitely be recommending this place!

When I walked in the guy making the food was very welcoming with a nice big smile. I had a few questions for him and he explained them all perfectly so I understood what I was getting. As for the food: We tried the chicken & lamb combo platter. It was full to the brim. Had to weight 4lbs. The chicken and the lamb were both flavorful and cooked well. That goes the same for the rice. They threw in extra sauce as well. Also tried the chopped cheese burger. It was good but it could have been chopped up a little more. The seasoned fries it came with were still nice and crispy when I got home. Will definitely be back being it's less than 10 minutes from me.

I'd say the food is even comparable to Thai food in Elmhurst (Queens). Who would've known this gem is hidden in Paterson?? Love that they have northern Thai options on the menu as well. The faves in my ordering rotation are the Tom yum fried rice w/ shrimp, curry puffs, pad see ew, nam tok w/ beef and sticky rice, and taro pearls in coconut cream for something sweet! I'm happy to report that spicy actually means SPICY here and they use all the right herbs and veggies in their dishes. I hope to visit in person one day!

The presentation of the food was excellent as well with a smoke show. The food was incredible too. I followed the reviews and got the smoked chicken which was a great choice. We also got the ribs and brisket. I definitely liked the brisket more than the ribs in case you are looking to make a choice. I got their special fries and I absolutely loved them. They were so lemony and garlicky. They have sauces that they serve with the food and some that are on the table as well. I think the sauces are definitely necessary. The meat is delicious but mildly seasoned. I live a bit far and I loved the food so much that I got brisket and smoked chicken to go as well. The brisket makes such an amazing sandwich with some sriracha aioli and cheese. The service was excellent throughout. We were seated immediately and everything was taken care of efficiently.

We arrived on a Saturday the place was absolutely packed but we were seated within about 5 minutes. We were seated right near the smokers and it was so cool to watch them prepare each dish. The presentation here is phenomenal as is the quality of all the meat here. A fresh salad with oil was brought complimentary to the table and it was delicious. We ordered the Buffalo smoked chicken wings and Baba-Ghanoj for appetizers. The chicken wings were so tender that as you picked them up the meat literally fell off the bone! The sauce was subtle but had a nice Buffalo kick at the end. The baba-ghanoj was served cold and was perfect with a little sprinkle of salt. The fresh pitas paired perfectly with it. I'm glad I did my research on this spot as everyone recommended the fresh mint lemonade. Wow amazing and refreshing I love that it came out as a slushy like consistency. I could easily drink them all day and they're probably amazing to eat outside in the warmer months and enjoy. We each ordered the meat platters in 1lb portions which are served with fresh smoked rice that is so good and filling. I wanted the beef shank but sadly they were out and ordered the smoked beef short rib. They served everything on a platter for us which the presentation I must say is outstanding . My boyfriend ordered the smoked brisket and it was so tender and flavorful he kept saying "it's terrible you won't like it because he didn't want to share it at all LOL". We had no room for dessert but I cannot wait to return for our next dinner date night! I would definitely give it 4/5 stars. Nothing was terrible the only complaints I had is once we were seated and our order was taken our server asked if we want appetizers first which we said yes and everything came out at once. Which is fine not terrible just our table was packed and hard to eat. Additionally once our food came out it was hard to get anyone's attention for more drinks but it was no too much of an issue that it ruined the night as they were definitely way too busy and seemed to be short staffed. I definitely want to return and check out the rest of their menu. I highly recommend making the trip to Kanoon!
