Mixed Platter, Slice of Pita, Fries
Ammarah A.

Today was our first time trying Manhattan Gyro. To say yhr least, we were pleasantly surprised at the quality and flavors of the food. We ordered the mixed platters, with falafel and the Fries. The platter came with rice, sauteed onions, shredded lettuce, half a pita bread, and the protein. The meats in the Platter were flavorful, cooked perfectly and very tender. The fries didn't arrive crispy, but you can't expect that when ordering delivery. Despite the fries being soggy, they were still good; my kiddies enjoyed them. As for the falafel, I didn't try them but my husband said they were average. The restaurant also gave plenty of hot sauce and white sauce along with Utensils. We will be ordering again very soon!

Slice of Pita

Amazing. The most flavorful halal in the area. I cannot say enough about how good this food is. Better than the carts in Manhattan! Easy online ordering, plenty of seating inside. The plantains, oh the plantains... The best I've ever had. This place is great. I recommend the gyro platter with ALL the mixins, the plantains, and the pita but everything I've had has been stellar.

My husband went to Manhattan Halal Gyro around 9:40-9:45 tonight (7/16) and was the only customer in the restaurant. He said that the place is clean, has seating to eat in and service was ok. The young man working the register did not have full knowledge of the menu, but was friendly enough. My husband finished paying and was not provided a receipt. Once he got home, we noticed that our order was wrong and an item was missing. We ordered two mixed platters and one was supposed to include toppings - it did not. We also ordered a side of hummus and pita that we never received. Since a few things were wrong, I called the store and asked to be refunded for the side we didn't receive. The young man that answered the phone put me on hold a few times. I got the vibe that he had no idea how to handle this situation. He said he couldn't give me a refund because his manager wasn't there. He didn't offer any way of correcting the situation. So I asked him to take my information down so his manager could reach out to me with a resolution. I'm not confident I'll hear back. The food is ok. Very similar to other halal platter places in the area. Except at those places, you get what you paid for. I recommend asking for a receipt and checking your bag before you leave.

If you are looking for the halal gyro platters like they have in Manhattan and Jersey city area...this place does it very well, I left another review on their other Yelp page( not sure why there are 2 ) but I had them for the second time just today and I think it was even better this time around , meat is very tender and the white sauce which at first reminded me of a creamy Italian dressing actually goes very well with the seasoned meat and very well seasoned rice. Good service , good packaging of contents and not cheap with sauces when you ask for them, give it a go!!

We came here on a Sunday noon for family lunch. There were street parkings and public parking lot…read moreavailable near the restaurant. We arrived just few minutes after opening, so it wasn't busy at all. They had a nice cozy interior with lots of Middle Eastern decor all around the store. We started with the Kashke Bademjan, an eggplant spread appetizer, that was so good with the complimentary fluffy bread. For entree we ordered the kabob combo for one. It has half skewer of chicken, half skewer of lamb and a full skewer of Koobideh. The kabobs and the rice were excellent. I also ordered the Chelo Mahicheh, a lamb shank dish with rice, that was amazing, The stew was full of flavor. The lamb was so tender, it was peeling off the bone. I thoroughly enjoyed eating the rice with the stew and the lamb. It was so huge I had to bring more than quarter of it home. There was only one person managing the front side of the store, probably the owner. He was super friendly and gave us lots of recommendations on what to order. He brought all the dishes out in short intervals and took the empty dishes out frequently. Overall really liked the food and the dining experience at this restaurant.

Kabob on The Cliff has couple locations across Cliffside Park (first location), Ridgewood,…read moreRutherford and Englewood. We went to the ridgewood one. Street parking. Nice decor with the lamps. Clean. Quiet. The staff was very nice and attentive. Fresh baked bread on the house. It's warm, crispy outside and soft inside. I can probably finish that basket myself. It's so good. We got Kashke Bademjan (smashed eggplant). Great flavor, texture is consistent. So great with the bread. We also got kabob combo for 1 and lamb shank (the staff recommended). The meat on the bone literally fell out when you picking up. Packed with flavor and sauce/soup, juicy, tender. A must try. Kabob combo we got half chicken half beef and koabideh(mixed lamb/beef/onion). It's a great portion to try different kabobs. All are soft and tasty. Savory. Rice is fluffy. Salad is fresh. I love the fresh acidic salad against savory meat. Wonderful combination.

I got the mixed platter, which was actually pretty good. My friend got the gyro wrap, and it literally came in a tortilla, and not a pita, which was so weird? I'm not joking...

The gentleman asked me if I wanted "white sauce" on my Gyro. Ok wait... It's tzatziki sauce!!! How can you be a Gyro place and call it white sauce??? Ok... I'm watching him put it together and a guy from the back brings this skillet out and instead of the traditional long strips of Gyro meat, they were crumbled up almost like ground beef or ground sausage. I'm not sure what the thinking was on preparing it that way but it makes for a big, hot mess when you were trying to eat it. Pieces of crumbled meat EVERYWHERE. They put the tzatziki sauce on from a squeeze tube. Now, I've had some good gyros and real tzatziki sauce is thicker in consistency. This was like mayonnaise. The flavor all around was below average at best. The workers in there were polite and really were trying, parking is plentiful and the establishment is clean. I was thinking maybe a platter would be better but I was speaking to a customer in there who said that he's giving it "another shot"... Soooooo... Thinking that can't be too good either.

Waiters took our orders quick but once the food came? We had to ask twice for more Sangak Bread since we ordered 3 different hummus. And originally only came with maybe 5 pieces of bread total which def wasn't enough for a party of 5 and 3 big plates of hummus. THE DRAMA- A waitress or the owner? She was holding a plate that I assume was my stew and I said that's mines and she automatically said no it's not mines...hmm ok my fault...yet turns out it was mines...she wasn't the person who took my order yet assumed it wasn't mines nor asked "did you order Gheymeh Bademjoon?" I found that off putting but shrugged it off, maybe I was just starving from not enough bread for all that hummus which was freaken delicious. We had a few main entrees and everything was tasty and def authentic with all those unique flavors. I did put the hummus over my rice for extra flavor, didn't want to toss them out. Overall it's a good spot, one of a kind of flavors you don't have often. My group left full but not exactly satisfied? Oh it's also a BYOB place. Not sure I would go back though.

Last week, my partner and I went to Nirvana Indian Kitchen for dinner - what a fantastic find! We…read morewere looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion, but on a weeknight, and wanted to try someplace new for us. We decided to check out Nirvana in Allendale. On a weeknight, there were more guests for dine-in than I thought there would be on a Thursday night. I noticed that they have a consistent stream of takeout/doordash orders being picked up - so it's popular in the area. I can see why with the food - delicious. Here's what we ordered: - Samosas (Two thumbs up - nice spices with the perfect amount of kick) - Kale Pakora (I haven't seen this kale-only fritter before at other places that we've been; a new favorite. recommended app!) - Bagara Baingan (Eggplant in creamy tomato-based sauce; it's rich and flavorful, despite it being vegan. This will be a repeat order for me.) - Saag Panner (My partner's go-to intro dish when trying a new Indian spot; this SP was partner-approved) The dine-in experience had a cool, chill vibe and nice decor inside. With the lighting and music playing in the background, you kind of forget that you are in a strip mall. You're just immersed in this nice Indian dining experience with friendly staff and delicious food. On the weekends, there's a brunch buffet. That's a must-do on our list. Loved Nirvana and will be back to try other items on the menu for sure.

Nirvana Indian Kitchen was a place we wanted to try because it looked a bit more upscale than other…read morenearby options. The restaurant definitely delivers on that image -- great decor, linen-covered tables, table lighting, and a cozy, even romantic atmosphere. What didn't match the setting was the music. It was pumping the entire time like you were in a club, similar to the music during peak hours at the last Indian wedding I attended. It didn't fit the kind of quiet dining experience the space seems designed for. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the menu is extensive with plenty of options -- chicken, lamb, goat, seafood, and vegetarian dishes. We started with the calamari cochin, which was excellent. It came out hot and crisp, coated in a flavorful sauce, and felt like a unique take compared to typical fried calamari. For entrées we ordered eggplant bharta and goat curry with tandoori naan. We clearly asked for the eggplant medium spicy and the goat spicy hot, and the server repeated it back correctly. Neither dish had any heat. Instead, we were given a small bowl of chopped peppers to add ourselves, which isn't the same thing. The eggplant initially tasted good but became overly smoky as the meal went on. The goat curry was tender and nicely cooked. Unfortunately, as we continued eating we both started feeling increasingly queasy, so something clearly wasn't sitting right. In the end it was a mixed experience for us and not a place we plan to return to. Lastly, it's BYOB and there's no credit card fee!

We sat down and the lovely owner brought over some savory popcorn. It was so good, she had to replenish our bowl.
