| - Anyone here remember the days of Magnetic Drive? The shawarma was authentic Israeli style, made of turkey, with the tomato and lamb dripping off the top? Delicious...
Well those days are over.
If I can describe this restaurant in one word, it would be: inconsistent.
Sometimes I order the kebab, and it looks like charcoal on a skewer (see attached picture) .. burned to a crisp. And they have the audacity to actually put it in a box and charge me for it, when any other restaurant would apologize and throw it in the trash. Shameful.
The little appetizer salads are absolutely flavorless. Just gross. You can tell no effort went into making them.
The chicken skewers aren't any better. 5 tiny morsels of chicken on a skewer... and the portions seem to be getting smaller and smaller.
I mentioned Shawarma and turkey up above, now its chicken, which consists of chicken fat and cartilage that you'll be spitting out after every couple of bites or so.
One day the babaganoush is great, the next day it tastes completely different. I've asked around and the kosher community knows that this place is a joke. People look forward to eating in NYC, or Israel because over there they feed your eyes first, with delicious generous portions, and then your stomach.
This is a kosher restaurant that knows the kosher community doesn't have much of a selection, ESPECIALLY when it comes to meat. So they serve you subpar food and charge you whatever they'd like for tiny portions, because they know they've monopolized the market.
Verdict:
Do not eat here.
