Family friends took us here for breakfast. The place is in the middle of nowhere but the food is so good. we got the large breakfast platters (incidentally one is enough for two) and it came with various cheese, honey, deli and fresh vegetables. Atmosphere is friendly and relax!
8. Al Mazaq Restaurant & Bakery
Authentic Iraqi restaurant and bakery. Specializing in Iraqi kebabs, soups, salads and bread baked in our traditional tandoori oven.

This was our fist visit to the family owned and operated restaurant and bakery. The traditional Iraqi tandoori bread is THE BEST FLAT BREAD you will ever put in your mouth. It is all hand made in a traditional tandoori oven and delicious. The humus was creamy and delicious paired with the bread, the salads were fresh and delicious, the grilled kebabs had just the right flame kissed flavor and the lamb shank over rice was fantastic. Take a bag of the fresh made bread home with you to enjoy for breakfast tomorrow. Check this place out, you will not be disappointed.
7. Syraan Restaurant and Cafe
Reviewed By MiouMiou
What a great find!! Five of us enjoyed an amazing meal here. We started with the Syraan Appetizer, a mixture of hummus, tahini, labneh, and warm pita bread. Everything tasted homemade, and there was more than enough on one plate for all of us. We all had the Syraan BBQ, which was a huge plate consisting of a kofta kabob, shish tawook, a shrimp kebab, meat patty, and one of the tastiest lamb chops I have ever had. Oh, there was so much food, but it was so good we could not stop eating.The waitress was friendly, and carefully explained all of the dishes that we were not familiar with. We were made to feel very welcome in the restaurant. All of the flavors were absolutely delicious, and next time we are in the Paterson area we will definitely come here again.

Best falafel in town hands down, chicken and lamb shawermah are good but they are nothing close to the true Middle Eastern shawermah style, the chicken shawerma is more like a chicken wrap with good garlic sauce.They have great specials, and most of the entrees I tried we excellent, the service is good and the staff are friendly.

All I can say is wow was this delicious, well-price, and satisfying! The hummus and shwarma are amazing! The service is really good: the waiters are very friendly and attentive to you. The outside patio is also an added bonus too! I would definitely go there again.

Dinner included amazing, soft fresh pita bread, olives, pickles and a salsa type thing. We ordered stuffed grape leaves and shared the meat platter. There was so much food! finish off with a mint tea and roll yourself home. We arrived about 4:30 pm on a Saturday and didn't leave until almost 6:30. They never made us feel like they wanted us to leave, it was a great meal to catch up with a friend!

Took my kids to eat Middle Eastern Food for the first time and they loved it. My daughter usually sticks to beef so she had the beef shishkobob entre, my son and I had the lamb shishkobob. Meet was so tender, tasty and just the right size portion. My daughter tried the lamb and said next time she will order that. The hummus was excellent. My son grabbed a menu and said we will definitely be returning.

I have been here several times through out the years. This place is nicely decorated and the menu has a nice variety. The only problem is i think the main dishes are a bit overpriced for the portion. But the food is good. I tried the liver and it was great. Used to be more flavorful before. But still good. Rice pudding is awesome. Deserts are a must here. I wad also very much impressed by the service. Very attentive servers. I will be back again.

Toros Turkish Restaurant in Clifton is the original of this four location restaurant and our favorite. Authentic Turkish menu with all types of lamb, chicken, beef, seafood items. Full bar and valet parking on weekends make this a pleasurable go to place. Wonderful, friendly staff.
