Easy to get to; Off street parking. Friendly staff. We went for the hot food; great lunch deals; $9.95 gets you an entree, mashed potatoes, and 2 sides. The meat stuffed cabbage was very good. The cheese & potato pierogi were good; the Kielbasa ( sausage) was just OK. There were many choices ( breaded fish, pork, vegetable items, hot\cold salads) However this place has so much more. a butcher shop, a bakery section ( the doughnuts were very good), aisles of authentic food products ( beer, soda, sauces, pickles , hot dogs, and so much more) Soups, frozen foods that were prepared onsite. Polish greeting cards; many magazines and news papers from Poland. the place was packed with so many items. Very impressive.

A spot you MUST visit!!! 10/10!!!!…read more The best sandwiches I've ever had. Piast recently launched a sandwich menu and they are top notch. The chicken sandwich will be the best piece of chicken you'll ever have. The fish sandwich is actually the best sandwich I've ever had - bye filet o fish. And the pastrami and kielbasa sandwiches are made using homemade meats. They make the pastrami and a bunch of types of Kielbasa. You could spend all day here. It's like a Polish Disneyland of imported and homemade goods. They own the liquor store with a small bar next door so you can order a sandwich then go sit next door and have your food brought there and enjoy a Polish beer with your meal. The kind of place you think about a week later. My entire family was thoroughly impressed with this place. I wanna go back and get everything......

Prices are unbeatable, a 7in sandwich is between $6-$8 which is perfect for lunch as well as the hot food also.

Paterson, NJ - like many patrons, my husband came across this place via their tantalizing Instagram…read moreposts and urged us to go. They were busy at dinner time on a Sunday night. As many reviewers mentioned, no one bothered to acknowledge us when we arrived, so I flagged down a waitress who said we could sit whenever we want. We chose to sit in the airier covered outdoor area (which isn't exposed to the elements so is perfectly temperate even in cold weather). There were no instructions on how to order either - this seems like a basic customer service fail: is it that hard to slap up signage explaining 1-2-3, or for someone (anyone!) to greet you and ask if this is your first time here and walk you through the process? Anyway, I'm glad I read the reviews and checked out what we wanted to order beforehand, and asked questions at the cashier. Sure, it's not that hard, but one really shouldn't have to actively track down multiple staff for directions on where to go or how to order at a restaurant. The deal is: decide which meat(s) you want from the poster (there is no menu), place your order (sold by the pound) with the cashier, pay, go to your table, and a server will bring the food to you when it's ready. The meat is (at current writing) $45/lb with unlimited sides and soft drinks. We ordered 1 lb each of beef brisket and lamb shank (1 lb = 2 shanks), which was the perfect amount of food for us 2 hungry adults, 2 teens of modest appetite, and a toddler of negligible appetite. The meat is simply seasoned (Arab bbq style) and came out lukewarm, but is off-the-bone tender and we enjoyed them with the variety of sauces. There are four types of sides: cucumber & tomato salad (good), spring mix, saffron rice (fine but my toddler loved this), and mashed potatoes (bland). It is a well-balanced meal, not too heavy. The chefs are friendly and we watched one film a demo almost certainly for social media. He even let us taste some of what he was seasoning, though there were no pyrotechnics as I had hoped from seeing some of the reels. The service wasn't bad - not terribly proactive but not non-existent either, and we always received what we requested. They could do better with customer guidance, but now that I know what's up I'd come back for the food and would like to try some other meats next time. Meat Moot has many franchises across the Middle East and Turkey, and NJ is one of only 3 locations in the US (the other 2 being in the Midwest). Street parking only.

We had a great overall experience at quality meats. We ordered the large fillet, the salmon, and…read morethe hanger steak to split for two. Salmon was cooked perfectly, the hanger steak was a huge portion and we liked the cherries, we were disappointed with the fillet- i think we were accidentally given the smaller portion, although the check did say it was the larger. If i could order again, I would have got the Porterhouse; I wish the menu indicated the size of the porterhouse. We got the Parmesan truffle waffle fries, and the cheese gnocchi, and I recommend both. Desert was epic!!! We got the grasshopper Sunday to share, and ended up ordering another it was so good. Service was also outstanding, but at the end there was a lot of seatings in our section, so we waited about 15 minutes for our check. All in all, I still gave it five stars despite the fillet and wait at the end, as I thought the service was great otherwise.

The presentation of the food was excellent as well with a smoke show. The food was incredible too. I followed the reviews and got the smoked chicken which was a great choice. We also got the ribs and brisket. I definitely liked the brisket more than the ribs in case you are looking to make a choice. I got their special fries and I absolutely loved them. They were so lemony and garlicky. They have sauces that they serve with the food and some that are on the table as well. I think the sauces are definitely necessary. The meat is delicious but mildly seasoned. I live a bit far and I loved the food so much that I got brisket and smoked chicken to go as well.

We arrived on a Saturday the place was absolutely packed but we were seated within about 5 minutes. We were seated right near the smokers and it was so cool to watch them prepare each dish. The presentation here is phenomenal as is the quality of all the meat here. A fresh salad with oil was brought complimentary to the table and it was delicious. We ordered the Buffalo smoked chicken wings and Baba-Ghanoj for appetizers. The chicken wings were so tender that as you picked them up the meat literally fell off the bone! The sauce was subtle but had a nice Buffalo kick at the end. The baba-ghanoj was served cold and was perfect with a little sprinkle of salt. The fresh pitas paired perfectly with it. I'm glad I did my research on this spot as everyone recommended the fresh mint lemonade. Wow amazing and refreshing I love that it came out as a slushy like consistency. I could easily drink them all day and they're probably amazing to eat outside in the warmer months and enjoy. We each ordered the meat platters in 1lb portions which are served with fresh smoked rice that is so good and filling. I wanted the beef shank but sadly they were out and ordered the smoked beef short rib. They served everything on a platter for us which the presentation I must say is outstanding . My boyfriend ordered the smoked brisket and it was so tender and flavorful he kept saying "it's terrible you won't like it because he didn't want to share it at all LOL". We had no room for dessert but I cannot wait to return for our next dinner date night! I would definitely give it 4/5 stars. Nothing was terrible the only complaints I had is once we were seated and our order was taken our server asked if we want appetizers first which we said yes and everything came out at once. Which is fine not terrible just our table was packed and hard to eat. Additionally once our food came out it was hard to get anyone's attention for more drinks but it was no too much of an issue that it ruined the night as they were definitely way too busy and seemed to be short staffed. I definitely want to return and check out the rest of their menu. I highly recommend making the trip to Kanoon!
