A pleasant and popular, if noisy, non-meat kosher café in the heart of Brooklyn. Somehow these…read moreplaces always offer sushi and the customers appreciate it. There's an interesting roll with lox and cream cheese. Not the best quality lox perhaps, but the combo was familiar yet exotic. Best best best was their panini offerings. The grilled panini is crusted with sesame so the crunch factor, and flavor, is through the roof. I had guacamole/portobello/roasted red peppers. A tasty choice. Comes with choice of Israeli tomato/cucumber salad or Caesar. Not really a fan, but good sized portion. There are more options and desserts though my sandwich filled me up. Service is pleasant though it's crowded and child-filled. They also deliver. Open since 1999 per their sign, it's clear this café is here to stay.

The best falafels in Brooklyn are in this tiny little restaurant. It's tiny! Nice outdoor seating…read more The falafels are THE FALAFELS. Deep fried after you order and not sitting around on the counter. Everything was delicious! Please don't ever change your prices! Well, maybe a little. But just a little! You can't beat $10 for a falafel!

The meat was not to my liking personally, I like more of a char grilled taste which this did not have. The rice and veggies were good. Not a cheap place, it's about $15 for a small chicken shish and the desserts are about $8 for a piece. But priced the same as other competition nearby. Not somewhere I would personally go again but was good for a first try. I personally prefer another place not too far away from this one, the Shish kebab in my opinion tastes a bit better and not as dry and has that charcoal grilled taste I am looking for. Seating area is separated from the walk-in/cashier which is nice.

My favorite appetizer is the fried calamari. Each piece melts in your mouth. Please be aware, they automatically add a 20% tip on the check. I didn't realize until my last visit, I erroneously gave a generous 40% tip. I've also ordered takeout via Uber Eats. We always order Babaghanoush, Falafel, and our favorite large platters. I normally get my favorite, Chicken Adana, but I tried their Chicken Gyro this time. It was good, but I still like the Adana more. My kid loves the Chicken Shish Kebab. We will be back for more.

I ordered a vegan eggplant parm and it was actually gross. The pasta was warm but when I bit into the eggplant it was cold. As I tried picking it up all of the breading slid right off of the eggplant. So I was left with cold, unbreaded eggplant and a plate of pasta with tons of breading and cheese. Gross! Would not recommend.

I tried their vegan "meat lovers" pizza and honestly I didn't enjoy it, I would recommend different brands for the toppings, but their burgers are great. It's worth noting that the pizza minus the toppings was good quality, I just didn't think that the smartlife bacon and breakfast sausage make for good pizza toppings. If they switched to tempeh bacon (resembles pork bacon, has smoky flavor) and used seasoned impossible burger instead of breakfast sausage it would be out of this world

The hot prepared food looked very good with what looked like 20 different preparations of chicken...no joke. The food took a little while to come out as they cook fresh. The burger looked very good, no cheese of course as the restaurant is Kosher. I was a bit disappointed as the corned beef and pastrami were deli style sliced on a slicer then grilled. I was hoping for steamed, nonetheless the sandwiches were very good. Homemade onion rings were excellent as were the knishes which were my favorite. The restaurant is clean and there is a restroom. No bar, soda, water and seltzer available for purchase. Prices were reasonable given the kosher certification.

I do not live in the area nor have I ordered their bagels/cooked food, but on my way to the beach yesterday, I stopped in. It wasn't my first visit. The deli has a huge variety of everything: protein bars, beverages, snacks and more. At the counter, you can order bagels, customize salads and there's also a juice bar. I decided to order a salad to go. There were two sizes at $5.99 and $6.99----however, their idea of large is really what I'm accustomed as regular or small having worked on Wall Street and eating a million salads. Nevertheless, regardless of size, a selection of any 5 toppings was included (protein/meat excluded). Also, some toppings may count as 2 selections. For example, 2 falafels would be 2 toppings therefore I chose 1. I started to eat my salad at the bus stop and finished while at the beach. It was delicious. I really appreciate fresh toppings that allow a salad to be noted as good. I also didn't observe any unhygienic practices as my salad was being prepared (gloves were worn). I really like this deli that carries a variety of items. It is purposeful for whatever your needs are---for me, a great pit stop to/from the beach.

There are plentiful tables and even a downstairs special event space. Plus, the bathrooms are very clean so you know this is a quality place. Food: 5/5. Huge portions! You can easily feed two people with an entree. We had the Fahsah Chicken in a hot clay pot...so good! It had a plethora of spices and herbs but was not too spicy. And the shwarma was the best we have had in Brooklyn! Ambiance: 4/5. Clean and tidy, they have alot of Yemeni decorations and clay pots that add to the authentic vibe. The doors have a slight draft so it was a tad chilly but nothing too harsh. Overall a lovely spot Value: 5/5. Huge portions of quality food, great service and extra bread. We loved it!

I felt like the food critic from ratatouille being taken on a sublime journey to some ineffable place beyond the physical realm. I finally appreciated what Yitzchak Avinu had in mind when he asked Eisav to bring him some delicious food so he can bless him - . I truly felt uplifted in a way that I had never before experienced from food. In case you are wondering, I am in general a grounded person who is reasonably rational and not so inclined to non-chemical-inducing mind-altering experiences. In fact, in the 10 plus years that I have been partaking in the kosher fine dining scene, I don't believe I have ever left a review. However, my experience at Ren was different. It felt so far beyond the typical fancy kosher restaurant experience that I feel compelled to comment - both to share the experience with others but also to ensure that Chef Ronen gets his deserved due.
