    I've been coming to this place for a little while now and not sure why I haven't reviewed it yet. First and foremost the place could use a bit of a revamp and maybe some remodeling of the floors and the bathrooms. Doesn't look terrible but could be better. But what really matters is the food right? They prep each mornings so the ingredients are always fresh! Usually, I get a pita with falafels or a pita shawarma. For both, I have them put Turkish and Israeli salad inside the pita along with hummus and this hot sauce they have. I don't shy on the eggplant and the red cabbage either. They usually top it off with this yogurt sauce (must have, gives it so much flavor!!!) or they serve it in a small side cup for you to dip it with. There is so much texture on every bite that your taste buds just wanna thank you! If you're in the mood for a good vegetarian lunch. Try the falafel on a pita. If you're a carnivore, get the shawarma with the pita. You can't go wrong with both!

    I am a non-kosher client who can from my humble opinion say this is the best shawarma plate that I have ever had. They are very generous in serving at a very reasonable price considering they are 100% kosher. Small place you would never imagine the quality of their food! Highly recommend this place. We stopped by for lunch super quick service and simply the best!!!!

    Not sure what happened. I used to love the burgers from here, but today $15 for this tiny burger, very little toppings, the bread tastes like is from last year, it so hard I couldn't eat it and the meat had no flavor, just freezer taste. Very sad and disappointed.

    YES!!!! When I visit Miami Pita Star is a must. Its almost like I'm visiting Israel. The taste is so authentic, and the Tahini is so good!!!

    What a great place! If you love middle eastern food you're going to love this place. I had to go up to Fort Lauderdale on a weekday and not knowing the area, yelped to see what was available for lunch close by. This place came up and I headed over there. It is located in a small shopping center, when you go into the restaurant there is a counter with different types of salads on the left and there's is also a complimentary salad bar for customers on the right. I ordered a falafel platter and the server asked me what sides I wanted, he suggested I get a little bit of everything and I followed his advice. The food was delicious, the falafel was cooked after I ordered it and the salads were excellent. It is very hard to find a good middle eastern place in South Florida but this place was a great choice. I liked it a lot and plan to return to try other dishes.

    Found this steakhouse on the AADVANTAGE dining program…read more Olives and pita bread are served complimentary. There are no cocktails on this Saturday night. I don't know if it's standard practice. From the looks of what would be the bar, I assume there is no liquor license. Many bottles of wine and limited beer options and no liquor bottles. The waiter said the owner doesn't serve cocktails tonight. ‍‍ The ice machine was broken. For the prices on menu items, there's no way that's acceptable. They could have brought in bags of ice, and we would have never known. We had no ice to go with our water and coke, and the beer was barely cool. Finally, we see bags of ice brought in and wasn't offered any. ‍‍ Tomahawk steak medium well was good, but I needed a little more seasoning. Mash potatoes tasted like freshly smashed potatoes and needed a little salt and butter, and the oyster mushrooms were a bit chewy with a charred taste. 3 Lamb chops were serves medium rare so it was requested to be well done then it was good, the spinach was bitter with no flavor and the rice tasted old as it was leftovers from previous day or days. Rice didn't taste freshly cooked at all. Bone in Ribeye medium rare was good with a Cesar salad that tasted strange. The Cesar dressing tasted like a blue cheese mixed with ranch and a vinegar. I don't know it just wasn't a good Ceasars dressing, and it was iceberg lettuce, not romaine. Overall, they prepared good steaks and good lamb chops, but they need to step it up on the sides. For the price of steak, they need to give a better portion and more than 3 lamb chops. For the quality of food it's an overpriced restaurant. Though the digital menu is up with technology, it's not truly functional. It's not user-friendly for older persons, and it had a glitch. They should consider a QR code. Overall, the ambiance is nice. The food was ok but overpriced. Stop in to support a small business. 1 issue I did have, the waiter didn't help us while ordering. My dad ordered rice with his lamb chops, not knowing that it came with rice, and the waiter said nothing. I was bothered, but 2 sides come with the steaks. My son didn't order any sides, so I requested that the rice be a side of my son's order. They corrected that with no problem. the spinach and the rice were removed from the bill. Customer service was decent.

    One of the best experience I've ever had really enjoyed all of the food that came. The service was…read moretop-notch really recommended this place to a lot of my friends.

    Had an amazing experience at Cafe Noir. The malawich and shakshuka were absolutely delicious --…read morefresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The tuna salad was also excellent and definitely worth ordering. The restaurant was very clean, the service was great, and everyone was welcoming and attentive. As someone who lives in Atlanta, I don't get quality kosher food like this very often, so it was such a nice treat to come here and enjoy such a great meal. Definitely a 5-star experience and I'll absolutely be back whenever I'm in South Florida again.

    Ill start this off by saying park in the back. The front area has a lot of "parking for [] only"…read moreand is always full anyway. Just park back and walk through the outside pathway to get to the front. That being said, we were lucky for the rain cause last time we tried going to this place even the back was packed. This time we had a spot and got in. I want to start the actual review with the service and odd vibes that happened. The service was very slow and we found ourselves either waiting a long time or doing something ourselves to not have to wait. It started from the moment we were seated. We were left alone not given water or anything for a super long time. When we finally had our waitress arrive we were just ready to order everything at once. The odd vibe thing that happened was that at some point (I think it was before we got our food) someone who worked there with a professional camera asked for a photo. We declined and noticed after the person didnt ask anyone else. We made a joke about how it was probably so we can be a token lgbtq customers, but im thinking maybe its because we were in our running clothes so stood out compared to others (most folks there were either dressed less casual or at least were wearing jeans or something). Either way it was weird mainly because we didnt see her ask anyone else. The food arrived a bit out of order (we got our entrees first) but im assuming its cause they probably have two different kitchens (they have a huge array of food types). We ordered sushi and this is where I became my own server and got up to get the chopsticks near one of the kitchens. We also asked a server for water since through the time of the food arriving (we basically were done with our entrees by the time the sushi and specialty roll showed up) our waitress disappeared. She reappeared with the water after the server told her (though it did take long from the time we asked the server). Once we were done fully, our waitress disappeared again. Most of the time she was at a table with other waitresses talking. I want to note there was another couple seated near us who were seated after us (we had ordered by the time they sat) and they had the same waitress but got food way quicker and I feel the only reason the waitress checked up on us is cause when she checked on them, we flagged her down to ask for boxes to go and the check. My partner ended up having to go to the sushi area to ask for a bigger box since the waitress gave us two small ones and the other half of my baguette caprese didnt fit in it. The guys at the sushi area gave her a odd stare when she asked. The only saving grace to this place is that the food is good. I really liked my sandwich and the rice with avocado. Didn't like the salmon roll cause it was too fishy but thats a personal taste thing as my partner liked it. I would say if you come here order take out and ignore anyone staring at you like you dont belong. But I would definitely not eat in again.
