    The taste of the food was lacking flavor. The portions are decent but did not suffice for the taste of the food.

    This is sublime casual food, and it's in Boonton, not the city…read more Others have highlighted the masterful sauces, and the selection of sides, better than I can. But I'm blown away by the crispy and soft textures in the wraps, and the Maillard reactions in the proteins. In the chicken schwarma, dark meat is appealingly charred and contrasted with the sautéed pickled peppers - nice enough if you like dark meat. But the falafel wrap is probably the best in the area. I can't wait to have another one. The za'atar pita chips are deliciously spiced too. I tried to save some for later but they were too yummy not to finish. Waits for food can be long, like 15-25 minutes. I've only seen one chef in on Saturdays and he's usually got three tables waiting to be served. WiFi would be nice.

While the self-service kiosks make tweaking your order effortless, the tech-forward setup leans heavily into fast-casual territory -- which could leave you feeling a bit more like eating high-end takeout inside the shop than enjoying a traditional sit-down meal. If you're looking for quick, fresh, very tasty, and highly customizable food without any fuss, it definitely hits the mark. The layout inside is modern, streamlined, and spotless. Instead of chatting up a cashier, your entire ordering journey happens at a self-service touchscreen kiosk. You can either play it safe with one of their professionally designed signature combinations or go full mad scientist and build your own wrap ($12-$14), bowl ($18-$19), or salad ($12-$13) from scratch. Once your order is keyed into the system, you take a seat while the kitchen gets to work. On the positive side, the touchscreen interface makes hyper-customizing your meal foolproof -- no misheard instructions, forgotten extra sauces, or awkward order modifications. While eliminating the traditional counter ordering process in a restaurant typically eliminates all of the human element of the process, the staff on hand are authentically polite, welcoming, and happy to assist if you need anything. My dining companion and I both opted for the Momo Bowl ($18), which came loaded with a generous portion of perfectly charred chicken shawarma -- a great mix of white and dark chicken thigh meat -- served over a bed of yellow rice and salad, topped with tomato, pickles, pickled cabbage, and their homemade garlic sauce. We both thought the ingredients were fresh, the proteins were perfectly seasoned and flavorful, and the overall execution is genuinely tasty. If you're after a quick, high-quality Middle Eastern bite where you have total control over your flavor profile, it's well worth a visit -- just prepare for a sleek, DIY approach to dinner. PRO TIP #1: Alhara does not have a private parking lot, but there is plenty of free on-street parking on Main Street and the municipal lots nearby.

    I honestly can't say a single bad thing about Naxos. After my first visit, I went back the very…read moresame week, and it has officially earned a spot in my top three restaurants in New Jersey. From the moment you arrive, everything is exceptional. Parking is plentiful, which is always a plus. The restaurant itself is stunning, with beautiful colors and an atmosphere that truly makes you feel like you've been transported to Greece. The service is equally impressive! From the warm welcome at the hostess stand to the attentive and knowledgeable servers. For appetizers, we've tried the octopus, roasted beets, and the lobster gyros. Every dish was outstanding. As someone who loves octopus, I was surprised that the lobster gyros completely stole the show. The flavors were incredibly unique, and every bite was absolute perfection. The seafood here is cooked beautifully. We've had the Lavraki, Tsipoura, and Dover sole, and each one was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. If you're a fan of branzino, I highly recommend trying the Lavraki. The lamb is also fantastic and definitely worth ordering. For dessert, we've only ever ordered the Loukoumades because I just can't bring myself to choose anything else. These golden, crispy dough balls are soaked in a luscious homemade honey syrup and are simply irresistible. When you find perfection, why change it? (I love textures and this dessert give you that) Naxos delivers on every level, food, atmosphere, and service. It's one of those rare restaurants that exceeds expectations every single time, and I can't wait to keep coming back because its so hard to find this level of perfection.

The pancit and pandesal were both solid staples that rounded out the meal perfectly.

Their lunchtime buffet is incredible and offers a TON of choices that are sure to satisfy all of your cravings. I know this because they sure do satisfy mine.    I've always been a huge fan of businesses that open up at the time their hours are posted. Here that's always the case, plus when they do open for the day they're all set up and Ready to Rock!! The staff here must be working all night long or something to be able to pull that amazing task off, super impressive. Gotta say too they're really cool people who are very friendly and that's the other reason I like stopping in.
