    Had this restaurant in my radar for a while.... I recommend not go there when they open at 12:30 ..I just think they are not ready .....I would say come at 1pm or 2pm or later But asides that , this is the real deal , clean and David treats you so nice .. David is the MAN !!... My first visit I had the chicken shawarma...I asked David build it like you like it ..... Folks that was such a delicious shawarma ....if you are a vegetarian you don't need meat in a shawarma....the chicken awesome , the filling with veggies awesome ...... So if you are a vegetarian definitely come visit ...there is plenty for vegetarians... My second visit was at dinner around 7pm ....there lots of activity here ,people and families do come here ,it's good food ... So I ordered the kosher steak (medium ) ,hummus, fries ,some spicy salad and a cold salad and the best thing of all you can bring your own BEER.... I was so happy to accompany that meal with a beer .... Wow that steak was delicious, I'm salivating as I write this ...it did not need anything to enhance it ...illl be there again for that steak ... The veggies hummus WOW !!!!!! I recommend this place to anyone ...it's a Kosher restaurant you can dress casual you will see orthodox people eat there. But don't let that intimidate you ...the owner is very welcoming ...we are all there to eat . ......I drove 8 miles 2 times to eat here . Well worth the trip ....this is the REAL deal ....come here , you won't regret it ...

    This smelled so good I ate half of it before I remembered to snap a pic. This is the Jerusalem mixed grill laffa sandwich.

    If you are a vegetarian, I'm sure you can find something tasty to eat at Monsey BBQ (kosher meat restaurant), but this review won't tell you how to order that. This review is for people who want char grilled meat seasoned and prepared in classic middle-eastern style. There are flavors here that are very hard to find outside of the few square blocks of Jerusalem where they were first created, so this little eatery saves me scads of shoe leather and lots of rowing. At least, it used to. My family almost didn't stop here due to a less-than-stellar visit some 2 years ago. On that occasion, the service was less than friendly and we couldn't wait to get back on the road. The usual proprietor had been out that day and the substitute staff lacked David's welcoming way. Today, however, David was back at his post and we felt right at home. We noticed a sharp new sign outside and a remodeled interior that felt clean and new. Thankfully, what the updated menu board gained in style it didn't lose in old school content. We ordered burger specials for the little ones, a shwarma pita for my wife, and for me, the crown jewel of Holy Land street food, the Jerusalem mixed grill. Yes sir. My wife's pita was freshly baked and slightly charred exactly the way it should be. She tells me the meaty bits were crispy-edged and tender. She gave our boys samples and they quickly asked for more. Wifey topped it with hummous, pickles and chopped salad. The kids's burger specials surprised me with their kebab spices and perfect grill marks. You get to choose from a wide variety of toppings at the counter, so every burger is unique. The fries looked thin and crispy, but I didn't try them because my Jerusalem mixed grill laffa sandwich was ready and my time for playful table tourism was done. For those who have never had the pleasure, the JMG sandwich is a grilled goodness party and my tastebuds were screaming "YOLO!!" Shwarma, grilled onions, chicken livers, chicken hearts, bits of lamb and whatever else the grillmaster has on hand get chopped, spiced and seared into a hot mess of delicious. I had mine on a big fluffy laffa bread filled with hummous, pickles, grilled eggplant, chopped salad, tahini, hot pepper sauce and rolled into a cylindrical instrument of appetite destruction. Seriously, Slash would be proud, and also...not hungry. If you aren't feeling this adventurous, stick with the shwarma and schnitzel. You can't go wrong. Thanks, David! We definitely won't stay away long this time.

    I was visiting clients downstate, and I brought along my 14-year-old daughter for company. I was in…read morethe mood for a kosher meal. I did not have any idea where to go, so I looked to Yelp and found Kosher Castle. I was shocked by the outside of the building. It looked like an abandoned former Burger King. I did not think there was an active business inside. There was no signage indicating where the entrance was. The entire building was filthy when we finally figured out how to get inside it matched the outside of the building. It was not clean. There is no one there to greet you except for several unhappy workers behind the counter, who process the order. It turns out, it was a former Burger King! Whoever moved into this building didn't do one thing to improve its appearance. It was horrible and dirty. You could still see the Burger King decals on the windows. Like a fast food restaurant, there are several interactive stations where you order your food, and pay. The graphics, the selection, and the ease of ordering, brightened my outlook. There were dozens of choices. The accompanying photos and descriptions were extremely helpful. I ordered a Thursday night special, which was a pastrami sandwich on a baguette, with pickles and coleslaw, accompanied by a portion of Cholent. I also ordered as a side, some Kishka with gravy. My daughter did not feel well and did not want to eat anything. We were given a number on the receipt and we sat on the side. There was only one table of about eight sisters, and a couple of gentlemen who were seated at separate tables. The presentation was exactly like that of a fast food restaurant. Everything was in plastic containers, which were marked clearly, as to contents. It was a fair pastrami sandwich. Slightly greasy from the microwave oven they used to heat it up. There was not a lot of pastrami. I thought the coleslaw was delicious and the pickles were good. The Cholent was the best I've ever eaten. I was surprised by the quality of the food. It came out relatively fast, but again this is a fast food restaurant. I would go back there to eat if I had to, and nothing else was open, because of the food quality, and the huge variety of choices. I did not think the pricing was outrageous at all. $19 for the special and $5 for the Kishka. But the building on the outside is an embarrassment. The inside is not much better. The staffs behavior was odd. No one was particularly helpful, and no one looked happy at all. There was some thing off. As we were leaving a young man in a Yarmulke came in,and was talking to the "Manager". I couldn't help but overhear. There was an issue about "Dinero" so maybe that's why people were unhappy. They weren't getting paid. Either way, I didn't need to hear it, however it helped explain the disregard for the appearance of the restaurant, as well as the staff, and the customers. I wouldn't go back there unless I absolutely had to.

    Food is greasy and nasty tasting. Places are wreck. Dirty sloppy. Unclean. Avoid like the plague.read more

Pita Greek offers bowls and salads (with added protein possible for $6-7), pita sandwiches, and big platters that come with two sides and pita bread. We really enjoyed the chicken gyro (tender), spanakopita (generously filled), and the falafel (surprisingly not dry but some people may prefer a crisper texture). For the sides, we enjoyed the chicken lemon soup and beets most. The lentil soup, scallion rice (similar to pilaf), broccoli (large pieces), and fries were ok too, in that order. The bowls and pita sandwiches are $12 base but we were a bit disappointed that the falafel addition to the bowl only came with three smallish pieces. The big platters are probably the way to go if you want shareables, as each separate item can be more than the $20 for the platter. They have a pita sandwich lunch special with a drink too. They also have kids meals and catering. Wish they had moussaka on the regular menu! They display desserts at the counter and they all looked very sweet. I wasn't expecting much in terms of atmosphere but it looked comfortable and clean in the dining area and there was outdoor seating. There's a shared parking lot in the back which is nice for Middletown Road. But otherwise, street parking is possible.

    Spring Valley, NY - I've ordered takeout from this Middle Eastern & Israeli eatery a few times and…read morereally enjoyed the food. The chicken/lamb plates I've ordered are heaped full of meat shavings - carved generously off a spit - and come with non-boring sides, sauces, and pita bread. They have shawarma, falafel, mezze, kabobs, salads, schnitzel, and more. I still have to try the Yemenite soup which looks like such great comfort food. On Thursday nights (leil shishi) they offer special Jewish delicacies such as chulent, kugel, yapchik, and kishka. Because the restaurant is kosher, the prices are higher than what you would normally pay for similar food, but you do get both quality and quantity. The hummus is next level - rich, creamy, almost like a tahini. The pitas you would fold that with are thick and fluffy with a nice chewy texture. The rice is seasoned and flavorful. And I love the various sides, especially the fried onions and smoked eggplant which has a deep smoked flavor. The seasoning are heavier (for example the chicken is very cumin-y), but the food sure isn't bland. There are digital kiosks you can place your order from - I always like having this option as not only does it let you circumvent human interaction (less pressure if you're indulgently mulling over your choices at a larghetto pace), but who doesn't like a picture menu! Only snobs. Located in the Spring Valley Market Place (now rebranded as just "The Marketplace"), same plaza as Target. There's a 4% cash discount.
