The fries and pita sandwiches are amazing. The chicken shawarma pita sandwich with 911 sauce is possibly my favorite food in the whole city .

Gabe Law

This place puts Ibbeys on Grove St to shame in both the food and customer service categories. Better quality/quantity for price. Super friendly staff . Far shorter wait time. Excellent menu.

Winnie Francisco

Lamb kebab is to die for! Order the Sampler Platter for 2 light eaters...more than enough!

Sarah Mele

I don't know what it is about their hummus , but it's so addictive, fresh and unique! I crave it weekly, no joke. No store bought hummus compares. Ask for olive oil drizzle on top!

Valerie

Get the shawafel sandwich - a little falafel and a little chicken or lamb/beef shawarma . It's the best of everything!

Rikin Diwan

You'd be hard pressed to spend $5 better than their chicken shawarma sandwich . So good!

kyle lazarus

Much better than the Ibby 's in Jersey City. Great portions, fair prices , and very nice gentlemen that work there. The lamb/beef is very tasty, and the hot sauce is HOT. The Babaghanouge is worth a try

Sarah Mele

Their prices rock, the falafel is addictive. Don't forget to try their amazing lentil soup too!

Alex F.

Best arabic shawarmas & falafel west of the Hudson!

Jonathan L.

The $10.99 bbq chicken special will fill you up for breakfast , lunch , and dinner .

Danielle

Really delicious falafel and dolmas . If you like it spicy , get the 911 sauce!!

Jenn Pedde

The chicken schwafel might be the greatest thing in the history of the world.

Cris Castro

Get the chicken & lamb lunch box combo and tell them to warm the pita ! Try a mango or strawberry drink from the fridge !

Robocub™

Gypsy grill is the best! Friendly fast service and no homophobia like some other Middle Eastern eatery on Grove St .

Jason O'Brien

I haven't found a better falafel in Jersey City. Get it with everything.. you'll thank me later.

Shyam Siyani

Its better than the ibbys on grove more meat inside the platter

Best falafel in Jersey City/Hoboken. I'm just mad they don't open late anymore.

Samuel Jurado

Hated the shawarma with stir fry vegs instead of salad . No more my fav Mediterranean

Dina Rughani

Chicken shawarma . Ask for it spicy .

Chicken kabob salad with tahini on the side.

A local favourite with a well deserved reputation.

Lizzy Liz

Never know what to order everything is delish

Regina Walton

Always torn between falafel or shawarma ? Don't be. Just order the shawafel ! It's great!

Crystal

Put the hot sauce on everything!

Robocub™

Everything is good. That's the hardest decision, what to get.
