The falafel was crispy outside and soft inside and the pita was warm and soft too. My favorite part was the sauces, especially the hot sauce. It actually has real heat and flavor. The second time I went back I had to ask for extra because I kept putting it on everything. I uploaded photos from two different visits and the food was consistent both times. The atmosphere is welcoming and the staff is friendly, they make you feel like family instead of just being served at a random restaurant. Definitely a nice local spot and worth trying if you're in the area.

We like the choice of rice (my favorite is weird brown long rice with carrots and raisins) We have tried most of the meat choice- all are delicious. 3 very different sauces are fun - the white yogurt sauce makes everything tastes great.

I was looking for a well rated Italian restaurant in Union County and Lupa Ristorante came up on…read moremany lists so I decided to check it out with friends. Lupa is located in a section of Berkely Heights that has seen a lot of recent construction, so it is very pretty and clean. You couldn't be blamed if you bypassed the restaurant. It is not very flashy looking and that is part of its charm. Be warned, there are not a lot of parking spaces behind the restaurant so you may wind up parking in the bank parking lot next to it (when the bank is closed of course). The staff at Lupa is super friendly and treats you like a regular even if this is your first time. The host was super nice, the waitress fantastic and the chef even came to our table to talk to us when we were done eating! The interior is very clean and modern looking. It's elegant and perfect for virtually any event including dates, anniversaries and family get togethers. We wound up sitting in the same area as the bar, which mostly has 2-4 seater tables and of course you can sit at the bar as well. The other side of the restaurant is where the larger tables are located. Here's a rundown of what we had: CLAMS ON TOAST Baby clams. crispy ham. thyme When I ordered this, I expected to see slices of toast with crispy ham and baby clams on top. Instead, it is two large pieces of wonderfully toasted bread with crispy ham on top. The actual clams sit in a *delicious* broth. Taken altogether these various components form a delicious bite. Be sure to dip that bread into the broth! SQUID INK SPAGHETTI lobster knuckles and claws. broccoli florets. grape tomatoes. Sherry Cream Sauce This dish has a wonderfully deep and earthy flavor. I've had squid ink pasta before and this was a wonderful example of it. The sauce was perfect and it was cooked beautifully. HANGER STEAK Truffled pomme frites. Chimichurri The steak was beautifully cooked (we had it medium rare) and the chimichurri sauce was great. However, the steak needed a bit more salt (and I'm not usually one to add salt to food). The pomme frites were wonderfully crispy and tasty. BROCCOLI RABE lemon. Kilos Broccoli rabe is a simple side dish but it is one of my favorites. It is also one that can easily be overcooked. These folks cooked it perfectly and it made for a fantastic side dish. My party and I loved our experience at Lupa and we all agreed we would happily return any time!

I had the Dover sole and it was one of the best Dover soles I've had. Also extra credit for providing a proper fish knife and fork. Octopus had a spicy sauce that was excellent. I appreciated the fact that they don't over season their food like many restaurants do. Inside was modern and nice. I liked the rose on every table. Service was so very friendly without it being overbearing. The chef came out twice to say hello and check on us which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Lupa.

Fresh, tasty food...but wow, the server was SO confused even though there were only 3-4 tables…read more Wrong orders going to the wrong tables multiple times, and they even had to ask the customers what they ordered every time a dish came out. Not to mention, the server was running around between the kitchen and dining area, which made me feel like this place was way more stressful than it needed to be. Service aside, food was nice but somewhat overpriced. The chicken shawarma platter was $20 but the portion didn't seem reflective of that. I probably won't dine in again, but may consider takeout when the craving hits.

The last experience I had was a meal with side of hummus, shawarma pita sandwich, and side of chili. Hummus portion started being reduced from what it once was in 2023 and 2024. Chicken shawarma was still good, but what really did it for me was being served a liquid turkey chili. I've had their turkey chili several times before, and it was a nice and viscous textured. The poor preparation in quality showed on my face and the server only said sorry when I told her it wasn't good. I messaged the owner the decline of quality on the restaurant Instagram, but was left on read. An anticlimactic end to the food quality that used to shine consistently here.

The menu pulls from a wide range of recipes from the Dodecanese and other Greek islands, and it shows in the flavors. We started with olives and beets served with warm pita bread. For mains, we had the Gyro (beef & lamb) with hand‑cut fries, tzatziki, salad, and more pita. Everything was fresh and well‑seasoned. The spanakopitakia -- handmade phyllo with spinach, leeks, and feta -- was another standout. We finished with their Baklava Cheesecake, which layers freshly baked phyllo, nuts, cinnamon, and honey syrup over homemade cheesecake. Rich, sweet, and worth saving room for. Great service, excellent food, and a menu that feels genuinely rooted in the islands. We'll be back.

I tried Hummus Republic for the first time yesterday and it had a similar vibe to cava…read more Unfortunately in comparison to Cava I still prefer Cava taste wise. At hummus republic I got the bowl with rice as my base and my protein I got the lemon chicken and the falafel. Then I selected my toppings, hummus/spreads, and dressings. The falafel was way too crispy and the lemon chicken was not very tasty in my opinion. There is something about cava's falafel that hits the spot for me. Hummus republic just did not do it for me. BUT one thing I did enjoy from hummus republic was their mango lemonade! Their lemonade tastes way better than cava. I say it may be a good alternative if there isn't a cava around. Maybe next time I would try switching around the ingredients I put in my bowl so hopefully I can enjoy it better next time.

Healthy fast casual place in downtown Westfield. Similar concept to Chipotle, as well as some…read moreMediterranean options such as Roti. You can choose from a pita, wrap of bowl. The pita and wrap starts at $13, whereas the bowl is $15. I got the bowl, which was really stuffed with food. It is more expensive that Chipotle, but I believe portions are larger. It was a little on the salty side, but I think this is because of the pickles. I will skip those next time. I did appreciate the various hummus options they offer. They let me use 3 different types. Husband got the pita, which he enjoyed. Note that this is a lot smaller than the bowl. Probably not enough for a dinner.
