I ordered 2 orders of the goulash. $43 for two orders, and two cans of ginger ale. When my order…read morearrived, the goulash did not have the mashed potatoes on the bottom as it normally does, and as the menu clearly states. I called the Restaurant to ask what happened to the mashed potatoes. The man on the phone told me I did not ask for it, and I told him the menu clearly states it is served with mashed potatoes, and I have ordered this many times and have always received mashed potatoes on the bottom. He told me he would send the mashed potatoes. The mashed potatoes arrived in a tiny container with a few crumbles of potato in it. I'm very disappointed with this experience today, and I'm not sure if I will be giving my business any longer.

It's never been crowded whenever I go, but I notice that most of their patrons are groups of men, probably coming in for a bite after prayers. There are a few families now & then too.

Çka Ka Qëllu has been on my radar for a while now. I first heard about it several years ago when…read morethey first opened in the Arthur Ave neighborhood - standing out as a traditional Albanian restaurant amongst the sea of Italian eateries. Fast forward to the present day, and they have gained considerable attention. The restaurant has made the NYT's Top 100 Restaurants in NYC list for the past 4 years, they have expanded to two (soon three) other locations, and is a favorite among the social media and celeb crowd (this is allegedly one of Dua Lipa's favorite restaurants in the city). That being said, we thought it would be a great spot to celebrate a family member's birthday - so I booked a table and off we went. Çka Ka Qëllu is located on Hughes adjacent to the back entrance of the Arthur Ave Retail Market. The restaurant is gorgeous - it's pretty spacious with three main dining rooms. The decor is a showstopper in itself - the exposed stone walls coupled with the abundance of artwork and old world accents placed throughout the dining area make this seem more like a museum than a restaurant. The ethnic music that is piped throughout the restaurant completes the feel. I honestly couldn't stop looking around. There menu is pretty expansive - most of the items I had not heard of before, but it's also approachable as they spell it out for you in the description what each dish is. We were a party of seven, so to make things easy we aligned to share everything. My brother and I decided to take lead and order items from each section. We decided to start with the ajvar, sausage dip, and tarator. These were all delicious; essentially dips, they all had great flavor and were paired with hot crusty bread mmmm. We then got a bunch of other dishes: leçenik, burek, fili, fasule with smoked meat, mantia, mazë e zier, and a shop salad. As with the dips, everything here was delicious. It's hard to pick the standouts because everything was so good - honest food, full of flavor and depth. Okay you twisted my arm - if I had to choose, my favorites were the burek and the mazë e zier. I love a good burek, and this one was top drawer. The pull on the mazë e zier was out of this world, yet it was easy to maneuver with great flavor. We ended the meal with one of their grilled dishes - namely the mixed meat combo. We chose five meats and they paired them with some vegetables and potato. At risk of sounding like a broken record - this was delicious as well. Service was awesome - everyone was welcoming and the food came out at a good pace. Overall, Çka Ka Qëllu is an absolute yes - the food, the decor, and the service were all aces. The hype is real and they deserve all the accolades they have received. Goes without saying, but I would definitely return for another meal - take me back now!

Once alerted that my order was ready, I pulled up and grabbed a metered spot right in front. As I entered, the shop it was empty but the staff was busy working on online orders in the open kitchen. Seating is available at a couple tables and counter top. I grabbed a seat as I waited because my order wasn't actually complete. Staff was pleasant but clearly behind on orders. Once completed I grabbed my order and headed out. I went with the #5. Breezin- strawberry, pineapple, peach, w/ orange juice base and I added banana. Overall a local spot offering healthy options on the go. Just A Note: They are on Uber Eats but they also offer online ordering and you can get 15% off your first order when ordering directly from them.

For drinks, I had the Legally Blonde with oranges, lemon, pineapple, and ginger root. It tasted healthy and not too sweet. I personally wished I tasted more ginger in it. She had the Crush with apple, lemon, orange, peach, pineapple, and a ginger shot. Hers had the ginger and flavors mine was lacking. I went with the Captain Jack wrap with an impossible burger as the protein, vegan mozzarella, sweet potato french fries, lettuce, and bbq sauce. This wrap blew my mind. As soon as I pulled it apart the cheese just stretched across both wraps. The i.possi ke burger and sweet potato fries blended beautifully, and it had just the right amount bbq sauce to not feel over-saturated. I highly recommend it.

My person rating is two stars. My husband brought home some take out from Tasty Choice. We used to…read moreorder from here regularly. I can tell you that will never happen again because they seem to short patrons. We all ordered rice platters and everyone got decent-sized portions. My lamb kofta was abysmal. They gave me three small, dry ass pieces. Everyone else's platters were full of proteins. If they ran out of kofta they should have given something else or let my husband know. My daughter had a full piece of salmon filet, my husband received lamb and chicken mixed grill and it covered his rice portion, and my son had a full serving of lamb kebab. What they served for my order was obviously missing meat. They don't even give the actual "white" sauce - it's like a low-budget ranch and the hot sauce is probably bottled Red Hot brand. The rice was decent and there was a lot of red onion, cole slaw and tomato salad - much more than there was meat. If they're sending food to the same home, they should do a better job of ensuring that the meals are comparable. This was a terrible thing to come home to, after a long day working with patients. Never again.

This place makes amazing shawarma. The chicken shawarma wrap is my favorite, but I have tried other…read moredishes here, and I must say the quality is excellent. BTW, the wrap makes the shawarma less hefty and helps you taste the meat and sauces rather than get overwhelmed by the bread. So much more interesting a sandwich. Less hefty. More of a delicacy. Their sauces are just great. The side dishes (Hummus, Yogurt, Baba Ghanouj, etc.) are also of high quality and taste great. The baklava is also excellent. I wholeheartedly recommend this place. The place looks like a fast-food restaurant, but the friendly staff and good food make it worthwhile.

They bring out free bread, sliced baguette and sourdough with a chunky hummus and very high quality olive oil. Then the octopus salad came out and this tastes great if you pour the olive oil on it. Then comes the meat platter. Everything was delicious! I loved the mini sausages the best (beef and veal). The chicken was a bit dry. But it came with some sauces. Peppercorn sauce was my favorite. And we also asked for more of the beet puree they use to decorate the plate. Overall, fantastic experience. I'd absolutely come back

So, on another no-cook Wednesday, I picked up a couple bites for a wayyyy early dinner for hubs and me. And since I have to bypass Greek Express to get home anyway... why not? Greek Express is really that- express. But don't let their name fool you. You can grab and go, Uber it or dine in. I stopped in and ordered. Greek E. is small but quaint, done up in blues and whites. On one wall, there's this big Mediterranean landscape and on the opposite side they have these mirrored "windows" with shutters that give it this cute, homey vibe. The dine-in area is set up real nice. Nowwww... the pickup situation does steal a little bit of the cuteness. Right up front, they have bags and bags and bags waiting to be picked up or delivered. But anyhow. I ordered a large Greek salad to share, grilled octopus for me and a lamb gyro for hubs. Oh, and the order came with 2 warm pitas! While I waited, the guy offered me a glass of water, and honestly- I appreciated the gesture. Gracias! THE OCTOPUS. Tender. Silky. Slightly grilled (would've loved it more if it was completely grilled). Really good. The Greek salad was fresh AND came with feta and hubs liked his lamb gyro with no complaints. $62 for a fresh Greek salad with feta, tender grilled octopus, a lamb gyro and two extra warm pitas? I wasn't mad at all. And the taste made the price even better.
