    Staying close by & was looking for something fresh and healthy. I know this is a chain, but had never been so we gave it a try. Chipotle concept- but amazing Mediterranean food. We chose to build a bowl with greens & rice - topped with the lamb & about 7 choices of fresh toppings. This was served with your choice of sauces & warm pita. Flavors were amazing- all ingredients were fresh. They have mutilple choices of in house made ice teas & leomades. Good food & drink for a fair price. Wish there was one near Pittsburgh! Look forward to going again sometime soon.

    So I stopped by Cava in Secaucus for a quick bite before heading to the movies on a weekday. The food was fresh, flavorful, and came out fast--perfect for a casual meal, especially since we had to go to the movies right after that's walking distance.... The staff was friendly, and there was plenty of seating, but for some odd reason 80% of the staff was helping with online orders wipe the in person line started adding up.... Bonus: tons of parking, which is always a win. Will definitely be back and give it another shot.

    This is a more "newer" location and love cava overall and this place did a good job within the food, service and ambience. The food was fresh, nothing looked like it was sitting out for too long, the workers were kind, professional, and the restaurant was clean and well kept up. A good establishment overall, good place for a quick bite.

    I loved that this cava opened up and is closer to me than the JC one but man, have I've been disappointed with their service... One thing I never had to wait for at the JC and Paramus locations were the pita chips. Waiting a few times is fine but after cooking here several times, the pita chips are never ready, the last couple times I've visited I've been sure to ask for them first so they can tell their team member to get to frying so we wouldn't have to wait 10 min for them to be done and I'd be done with my meal by then...I am always asked "that's it?" Other times, the managers have been standing around on a busy day/time instead of helping out their team. The other team members are clearly not happy which I haven't experienced at the other Cava locations. This goes to show the poor management and teamwork at this location. Other than that, Cava is really one of my favorite places to eat but not this location. They offer pitas, bowls and salads - either pre picked for you on the menu or choose your own fillings.

    Service was terrible I will never come back to this location. Only the gentleman working at 6:30 pm Monday night the only respectable employee at work that night. Female ringing people up lazy ! Literally said they were out of so many things only Becuase she didn't want to bend over an open the fridge. Literally after she made our bowl someone came after us and the person working opened the fridge and brought out everything that was "out" "missing" - wildest experience I've had at a cava and I didn't even go at closing. Spent $50 on bowls missing half their items because someone didn't want to bend over.

    The food was great and the team was nice. The cashier can be friendly, she's is calling the manager, Yoo Yoo, she's young and was efficient. Great food!

We ordered pretty much the same thing as the first time with the addition of the Cheese Borek to try out. It had a great balance of salty cheese flavor to the crispy phyllo dough. It went well with the Fattoush Salad (that came with the Mixed Platter). We were 3 people this time and the Mixed Platter for 2 was plenty of food along with all the appetizers we got. The Iced Mint Lemonade could have a bit more mint and less sugar but I found it sweet and refreshing. Their Hummus and Babaghanoush here are both excellent and pairs well with the warm pita they give you. Please do yourself a favor and check out El Jardin! Delicious food, amazing portions, and family-owned Palestinian restaurant.

Really wish I took photos - therefore just like the great convos with the wonderful, extremely personable and educational counter gentlemen - will be coming back real soon with photos Review: Hudson Kebab House isn't just good--it's memorable. I had the gyro wrap, my wife had the chickpea salad with falafel, and both dishes were so on point they brought me right back to my time in Istanbul. Flavorful, fresh, and clearly made with care. The wrap was balanced, not greasy, and the falafel had that perfect crisp-to-fluff ratio. But what really stood out? The person behind the counter. Not sure if he's the owner or just part of a family-run operation, but his energy was magnetic. He checked in with us--and with everyone who came through the door--like we were all regulars. Friendly without being overbearing, helpful without the upsell. He made the food taste even better, if that's possible. This spot has soul. It's the kind of place you return to not just because the food is excellent (it is), but because it feels good to be there. I'll be back very soon to try the kebabs, and when I do, expect a full deep dive--possibly with pictures, definitely with passion. 15/10 - must try. Strong BUY, erm, sry, not investing.. STRONGLY RECOMMEND

First time trying yesterday and I was delighted. I got the mix kebab plate and baklava. Tzatziki was full of mint flavor and perfectly complimented the charred meats and buttery rice.

I can't wait to return and try their other items!

He really took care of us. He goes above and beyond and gives great effort. We got the French onion soup to start. Super good. Lovely cheese baked over all the top of the bowl. The flavor is crazy. The broth is amazing. I loved every bite of that. Then we got the pastilla and tajine d'agneau. The pastilla is delectable. A must. It's some of the wildest flavor combinations I've ever experienced. You're eating shredded chicken mixed with cinnamon and white powdered sugar. All within phyllo dough. The tajine is fun to try, but it was just OK. It's kind of like a lamb stew. I will give kudos to a very soft and not too chewy Lamb. The prunes and apricots are such a unique flavor duo with these. Couscous is fun. This meal was a 4 for me but everything else, divine. The music was fun. They a live guitarist and sax player serenaded us. Dim lighting. Such a prime location. Lovely to walk through this neighborhood after you're stuffed.

The restaurant was virtually empty inside and had plenty of tables outside, but I was still told that I needed to wait until my companion arrived before I could be seated. In the meantime, I parked myself at the bar and gazed out the massive windows at the stunning Manhattan skyline views. When my friend arrived, we asked for a table on their outdoor deck, which was located just to the side of the restaurant, so that it would not block the views for those in the indoor dining room. We were seated at one of their comfortable tables, but there was some strange water dripping down onto my legs, so we moved to another one. I was not drinking that night, so while my friend ordered a glass of wine, I opted for the Panoma mocktail made of Seedlip Grove 42 non-alcoholic spirit, peach, agave, lime, and club soda. It was sweet, bubbly, and refreshing. We received a basket of toasted, dry bread with their proprietary, aromatic olive oil. We also munched on two shared appetizers. First, we opted for a bowl of their Calamari to be grilled and served with a lemon emulsion. The squid rings were tender, and the citrus marinade was fantastic! It was my favorite bite of the evening. The Traditional Greek Salad was also tasty, though. It included chunks of vine-ripened tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions, olives, red peppers, barrel-aged feta cheese, oregano, aged balsamic, and extra virgin olive oil. A few of the tomatoes were a bit mushy, but the majority of the salad was very fresh. For our entrees, we both ordered the Lavraki, a mild and flaky sea bass, which was apparently grilled whole over charcoal. Though the filet was supposed to be de-boned, I definitely found a half-dozen or so in my butterflied piece of fish. It was topped with some sort of sauce that was similar to hollandaise, as well as a bunch of capers. It was a very enjoyable plate of seafood. However, since it did not come with any side dishes, we decided to share the Foraged Mushrooms and the Brussel Sprouts. The fungi were varied, offering a blend of aromatics and layers of earthy flavors. The sprouts were a bit salty and overcooked, but not terrible. Once our meal had concluded and we had turned down dessert, we were offered water refills twice. Both times we said that we would love more water, and both times it never arrived. So, that was a bit odd. Otherwise, the service was fine, but not specifically memorable, aside from the manager wishing us a nice evening and thanking us for coming. While the food was above average, the real draws of Molos were the amazing views available from a majority of their tables, as well as the sophisticated elegance of their indoor dining room.

The decor inside feels homey, nostalgic, and thoughtful. They weren't busy at all on a Sunday around 1:30pm so we were seated right away. We started with 1pc Lahmacun which is often called Turkish pizza. It's minced beef, tomatoes, onions, and spices on fresh flatbread. Their flatbread and even the complimentary bread we received before this was to die for! Some of the best bread I've ever had at a Middle Eastern restaurant. It was warm, fresh, and airy. The Lahmacun had delicious flavor and paired well with the vegetables it's served with. 1pc is plenty to share among 2 people. It was now time for the Mixed Grill which was presented beautifully! All the meat was outstanding, tender, juicy, smoky, you name it. I honestly didn't have a favorite because they were all delicious. I love that it's served with both rice and salad with the salad being on both sides of the plate making it even easier to share. This was easily sharable among 2 people and could even stretch out to 3 people if you order other appetizers. We ended with the Finn Sütlac which is a Turkish-style baked rice pudding. It was creamy and lightly sweet but the rice grains were still whole and slightly undercooked which I didn't particularly enjoy. I'm used to them being softer and even smaller in size. Beyti Kebab is easily a 4.5/5; some of the best Turkish food I've had across NY/NJ. Highly recommend!

One of the staff members greeted us right away, gave us a warm welcome, and offered some helpful recommendations based on the size of our group. He guided us inside and sat us by the window, which gave us a perfect view of the main street--great spot to people-watch while enjoying your food. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is amazing. The walls are decorated with portraits of Turkish artists, giving the space a cozy and cultural vibe that really stands out. We ordered a platter meant for two, along with a side of rice. Honestly, the portion felt more than enough for three people--very generous serving! I also had a Turkish soda, and later, a glass of Turkish tea, which I highly recommend if you're visiting. The tea was smooth, aromatic, and the perfect way to end the meal. Parking was surprisingly manageable. It's not a super busy road, so there's a good chance you'll find a spot nearby. Still, it can get a little tricky depending on the time of day since there are several other restaurants around competing for space. Service was attentive, the place felt welcoming, and it's clear they care about your experience. Would definitely return--and next time I'm bringing more friends!
