The waitress took our orders swiftly and we were served our food within 15 mins of arrival. I had the hero that was chicken cutlet, fresh mozz, and vinegar onions, added arugula. The bread on this hero was spectacular, just the type of Italian bread I like with that crunch factor. Portions generous.

This place is dangerous, you walk in at 160lbs and ya leave hitting 175!…read more Love this place, the food is fresh, delicious and def satisfying. From the roast beef and mozz to their chicken parm hero... The rainbow cookie cupcake is delicious! Their deserts are top notch and don't forget to grab yourself one of their specialty drinks!! Their service is awesome, as soon as you walk in, someone always greets you.

This was a nice detour and I found a great sandwich shop at Filoncino…read more I was in Jersey last week and I want to grab a lunch before heading back to New York. I found Filoncino (thanks Yelp) in Staten Island right off the exit. I pulled in and saw Filoncino has plenty of available parking. Once inside, I see the restaurant is actually split with 1/2 sit down wait service and 1/2 take out with a few tables to eat your sandwich. The menu choices were pretty substantial, I was going for a hot chicken cutlet but the imported prosciutto sandwich was calling my name. This sandwich was a true banger: fresh mutz, peppers and prosciutto on freshly made Italian bread. Trust me, you're not getting this caliber of sandwich in Boca Raton! This a tried and true New York Italian sandwich. Filoncino, it was a pleasure to dine at your restaurant.

Absolutely spectacular! Artisan everything! The absolute best bread, the best fresh made to order…read moresandwiches, hell they even have pizza that amazing! Super clean, great separation of counter and dining room. Very attentive staff. Lots of specialties every day! It's obvious that this is a "Sister business" to "Royal Crown"! Hands down, the best sandwich on Staten Island! I DO NOT CARE if you disagree! This is the spot! Highly recommended!!!

Always fresh delicious food! I eat here a couple of times a week! Clean place and friendly staff!read more

Excellent food, service, and atmosphere!…read more We visited Zara Arthur for a family dinner on Sunday, Feb 16, just next day after the official opening. What a new gem we got in the area! Everything was excellent: nice decor and atmosphere; delicious food and desserts; quick, friendly and attentive service! Restaurant manager Yunus stopped by us to check how we liked the food and the service. We felt like dear guests and enjoyed our visit. We highly recommend Zara Arthur for a delicious Turkish cuisine and great atmosphere! Food ordered Appetizers Balloon Bread with olives - freshly baked, with sesame seeds on top, it was a great start to the meal and a must have complement for the appetizers. Mix Appetizers - 6 cold appetizers to choose. We got: Hummus, Babaganoush, Eggplant Salad, Sauced Eggplant, Aci Ezme, Muhammara. This is certainly a highlight of the menu! Delicious and lets you sample 6 appetizers! All were great and we especially liked Aci Ezme and Muhammara which were something new from the usual Mediterranean fare. Fried Liver Cubes - The liver pieces were soft and tender, perfectly spiced, and overall delicious! Cheese Rolls - great, with melted feta inside. Lentil Soup - excellent, as it should be. Entrees We got 4 different kebabs and all were really excellent and tender. Lamb Shish Kebab - perfect and flavorful. Adana Shish Kebab - delicious and flavorful. Chicken Shish Kebab (small) - our 10y old daughter liked it so much that we didn't even get to try it. Beef Shish Kebab - medium rare, soft, melting in the mouth. However, flavor was a bit lacking on this one. Some marinade or spices would make it better. Desserts Baklava - very fresh! Kazandibi (milk pudding) - good Keskul (almond pudding) - good Tea - this was one of the best teas I ever had in a restaurant! Not a bagged tea, but freshly brewed, strong and aromatic!

I moved from vicinity of their Bensonhurst location to now the vicinity of their Huguenot location…read more The paninis at Bensonhurst are #1 and cannot be beat. I wish I could say the same about this location. I understand that this concept is express, so everything might be made faster, but definitely everything is for pick up, no dining. But the way the paninis are made are very messy and shows lack of effort in presentation and taste. Sun dried tomatoes are just slapped on in the center, not spread out. Paninis are under toasted, without a crunch. Customer service is okay. Friendly employees. However, on one occasion, either the person handling the phone got my order wrong, or the one making it, but my panini had eggplants in it when the menu doesn't say there are eggplants. Iced latte was incredibly disappointing, tasteless and watered down. Extra $0.50 for syrup. P20: 4/5 P24: 1/5 P25: 2/5 Iced latte: 1/5 I highly advise against ordering an hour before closing because their work gets sloppier. The website linked on yelp is inaccurate in terms of prices, but if you google their menu, it leads you to a different site with accurate prices.

I'm really glad Panino Rustico opened a location in South Shore of SI. The paninis are so good and…read moresalads are also the perfect healthy and tasty side. The salad I got had arugula, two burrata balls, avocado, fire roasted bell peppers, and balsamic glaze. I'd definitely get this again! The panini was also really good - it has mozzarella, pesto, tomatoes, and a good amount of prosciutto. The size is perfect for me (not as big as Filocinos). I've gotten the chicken panini with goat cheese but found that combo to be a bit dry so I recommend anything with mozzarella and a protein that's not chicken. The parking lot is really small so I recommend delivery or walking to pick up, if possible. Not pictured here but I like their Iced Coffee as well! I will probably order a few times a month - quick, healthy, and tasty!

Bruzzese is truly one of the best spots on Staten Island.

Their Aunt Debbie's is a must-try, and the honey chicken is honestly to die for. The chicken is perfectly crispy, flavorful, and cooked just right. This place never disappoints. Highly recommend stopping by!

The bruschetta was flavorless and completely overpowered by the arugula. The rigatoni with marinara sauce and mozzarella was also flavorless. An Italian restaurant should always make stellar sauce... this was a total miss. I had the salmon oreganata for my main course and it was cooked nicely, but overall just bland. Service was good with the exception of one waitress that was yelling at guests.

We had the Mediterranean salad which we shared, the stuffed pork, lasagna and Pescatore ( seafood with pasta ). Our son got the French fries and was munching away. He has allergies and loved the fries. The service was great, very nice and attentive. They explained the specials today and made sure we were taken good care of. We initially wanted desert and coffee, but the portions were so big we already were satisfied. We got a little treat on the house, coffee ice cream with whip cream on it, a dream! Next time I definitely want to come specifically for coffee and desert! I definitely recommend this place! The only thing I would say is the price. It's definitely on the pricier side for the food items, but overall absolutely enjoyable and a great restaurant to take the family out!

All yummy. The only disappointment was the pita bread. Just not great and should have been warm Laila salad - Fattet Makdous - stuffed eggplant with ground meat with yogurt garlic sauce with small crunchy pieces of pita bread. This was a bit too rich for me. My friend ordered it. Very tasty and different. Sujok - Syrian beef sausage delicious and different from Italian or polish sausage Spicy potatoes were incredible. They were crunchy so apparently fried but not greasy. Desert was baklava mushed up with a scoop of ice cream. Amazing I'd go back in a heartbeat. There's a lot of different dishes to try out!!
