I honestly think the vibe of the outdoor dining is the best part of going there. I wanted to plan something fun with my sister and my fiancé so that was great. The server I had was nice even though she got my orders wrong and I got charged for something I did not receive. It was very busy so I’m assuming they were understaffed so the service wasn’t as exceptional as I hoped. The kofta was good. I liked the music and the lights. Parking was very easy so that’s a bonus. An advice I would give to the restaurant is to have more staffs work on weekends because it does get busy and it would be nice not to get up and chase the waitress to order something. Overall I really had fun and the workers are nice and it was a great experience.
This restaurant provides the most delicious food ever. The owner and staff are very friendly, welcoming and always have smiles on their faces. They always make sure that their customers are fully satisfied. The seating arrangement during this pandemic is amazing insuring the policy of social distancing which make us, the customers, feel safe regardless how long we stay at this amazing restaurant. I have to mention Karim, who makes sure you are welcomed and he is the best in making hookah... my number one place to be at at any given time of the day. If you are in the mood for good food and stunning environment, Kamil’s is your place to be at.
LEBANON Excerpt from Eat the World NYC:Kamils, which has always had a great following for indoor and outdoor dining and hookah, has adapted to 2020 fairly well by the look of things. Opening up the front door, you may not believe this, as the interior dining room is now a ghost town. But come in the evening and their large back garden is full of people enjoying their meals outdoors in Clifton.A most recent meal centered around an order of Kamils mixed grill ($21.95), a platter of grilled lamb chops as well as lamb, beef, and chicken kebabs all served with rice, pickles, and side of toum to slather across everything. The rice is full of more garlic, and a lot of butter, and could not be more decadent. Each piece of meat is marinaded and grilled quite well.
Pros:1. Food is very good2. Friendly staff3. Incredible ambiance. Very well done4. Great place to bring a date.Cons:1.Mixed grill platter very small compared to other restaurants in the Clifton/Paterson area with similar prices2. No masks at all (Not our waiter, not the bus boy, not the hookah guy, host, or the owner)3. No social distancing at allIf you dont mind #2 & #3, you should give this place a chance. Hopefully no one reports them.
My all-time favorite spot been going there for years. Food is amazing and the atmosphere is very pleasant. Staff is always welcoming specially Karem with the big muscles ;) he never leaves us waiting for more charcoal and hookahs are always on point. I highly recommend the slushy lemonade (perfect for a hot summer day). Hands down best food and hookah in town.
We just ordered a nice sampling for delivery and everything was fresh and delicious!! Order came quickly too. Will definitely try to go there next time for the outdoor patio.
Service was really good and fast. Food taste was ok for me but my friend loved it. The portion was small compared to the price. And hookah was ok. The atmosphere is nice as well.I would recommend the place for hookah and some drinks but not for food.
The food was great. The venue is beautiful. The service is bad and the manager( shorter bald man) is useless, we caught his eye several times when we wanted service and he didn’t acknowledge us. The wait staff, except Hanin, doesn’t come around and when we asked for olive oil( a staple of Lebanese food) we were told no. Hanin was a good waitress and eventually got us olive oil and gave us attention so that we could enjoy our meal.
Middle eastern food and the atmosphere here is very good. Looking forward to coming back with my friends. Prices were decent. Ambience reminds me of Colorado Springs area.
Kamils mix grill is by far one of the best platters Ive had anywhere. You get one lamb chop, one kefta, chicken cubes and meat cubes, served with rice or fries. The prices are unbeatable. You have to try the mint slushy.
I enjoyed Kamils best of all the atmosphere. Very relaxing time for a group of friends wanting to enjoy the night. Never too packed to accommodate people. I was sat instantly. I loved the food, I had the quails in garlic sauce.
I loved coming here! Went with my husband and prior to corona virus i went with my co workers for a meeting ! Love the food and the ambiance
Food was incredible and hookah was even better! Service was great even when they were busy!! Highly recommend. Prices are also great.
My first and last visit wasnt positive. Cold night, out with family and went there after calling them how seating works. By the time i reached, They were loaded and asked me to wait outside in cold with kids or wait in car, but no system to handle waiting people. Thy said i have to keep coming and checking if table is available or nah and when i asked what if m outside waiting and some1 after me comes and gets a table so they replied yes,Whoever is at the door and tables get free, we give it to them, i said why u asking me to wait in car? such a brainless logic with no waiting or seating system. Atleast take peoples contact number and tell them nicely to wait and whenever your number comes in waiting we will call u and simply give them estimated time of waiting in case if they wana leave or still wana wait for your so called out of the world food.Secondly its nah for kids. They serve Hookah as thier name says too, but they have no specific area for non smoking customers. I guess mostly people go there to drink (i guess u have to bring your own) and smoke hookah. Small place with lil ventilation and smoky as 20 people blowing hookah in small area so avoid taking family dinners with kids.Third I only went for Halal food and Food was ok. Quantity wasnt alot according to prices but ok for single serving. In reviews no one explained anything specific about environment so am writing long review to share what i have experienced, after all i drove 30 mins to enjoy my day with family.Stay safe and GL
Ramsis is a nice guy, and the young guy and girl also know their job pretty well, nice place overall.
Very nice hookah place, quiet and secluded. Its a byob which is nice. Really recommend this place.
I ordered 8 Mixed Grills for a party of 15 and had it delivered to good friends home. The owner paid special attention to their order and delivered it in a timely fashion. The family said the food was very tasty. I cant wait to try it when I am in the area.
One of my preferred locations for tasty Middle Eastern food. i look forward to a return trip. kinda of like a restaurant in los angeles i loved to visit.
Worse customer service... it took them 45 minutes to take order for drink and starter and an hour to bring it on table with missing items this whole thing clearly explain that why they charge 18% tip automatically in bill ..
Kamils Restaurant is the place to be if you want to feel that you are right in Lebanon. The food and price was amazing and the portions were just right . I loved the atmosphere also loved the quick service and felt welcomed.
The big Staff member I don’t know who he think he is but I won’t never go there again layalina gave me best customer service ever an it was right in front of Kamis
Love this place! My go to spot. Great food, hookah & atmosphere. Best part, it’s BYOB!
A fav location for delicious Middle Eastern food. food was so delicious. menu is like a place in san francisco i liked.
Nice social distance setting and relatively quick service Karm and Haneen all the stuff doing a great job quick service for how busy They get .Best food and great hooka.
Cool place, offers out door dining and nice atmosphere... Could talk for hours here smoking hookia and eating
The staff does not wear masks which was very different than other places I have been to eat. Otherwise we had a good time.
Always a delicious place to get some food! The shish kebabs are good and so is the rice. The hummus and babaganouj do not disappoint.
My colleague told me about this place and I recently had dinner here with a group and it was great that they had outdoor seating and Great atmosphere good food service was excellent I was very pleased with the experience
I have ordered from Kamils through GrubHub at the beginning of the shelter in place. They had us at the first order! It arrived earlier than expected at the food was hot and delicious! Ordered several times after. Will definitely go dine in once things are better. Everythng was delicious but my favorite is the chickpeas dish.
Nice social distancing seating and relatively quick service for how busy they get. great for hooka and food, byob place.
Best hooka and best service from the muscle guyAlways treats me and my friends as family
Ordered some lebanese classics to introduce my friends to Lebanese food! It was a success story! The taste took me back home!Strongly recommend it !
The food was delicious and I love the atmosphere of their outdoor dining. Cannot wait to go back.
I love this place..specially their service is really good.
First time eating at Kamils, also my first time eating Lebanese food. I can honestly say that it was an amazing experience. The staff were super friendly, polite, well professional, and the atmosphere were very calm and smooth sailing. The food were super-scrumptious. And the Lemonade/mint smoothie was soooooo refreshing.
This place never disappoints, today i even ordered for a delivery, slightly skeptical it might not be as fresh as eating there...it was delicious...absolutely love this place
Amazing food and the place was great! This was my first time here and I didn’t make a reservation! The place was packed, I was ready to leave but the owner made space for me and my friends to sit! The staff was exceptional!!!! Def a great place to eat and hangout with friends! A+++ rating!
Been to this spot multiple times great food atmosphere and hookah.
For a food lover not only am I extremely satisfied with the food , the flavors , but the service is always excellent . I have been coming here for years growing up and it is very much consistent ! Quality 10/10 you will never be disappointed . If there are any negative comments then you must be either really picky or really entitled . I have tried multiple Lebanese spots both in nyc and the Bronx but by far this one is my number one go to. You definitely get your money’s worth, the owner is always there Very attentive to his customers ! You dont really see much resteraunt owners socializing with their customers and ensuring they are very much satisfied ! The enviornment is outstanding ; amazing place to bring a date , family, and/or friends. Good vibes and beautiful scenery. The hookah is unbeatable! This is the kind of restaurant that once you have it you’ll always feel the need to go back for more!
Ambience is great for outdoor seating. Also the food is really affordable
Last night was the first time in this magnificent restaurant. But It is definitely not the last time. We passed a splendid evening with the attentive service, with the great meal and booze and with the modest cost. We will no doubt return there in a short time.
The food used to be good. Not any more. Tabula is cut randomly and with no taste. Humus wasnt tasty. Arayis were dry and tasteless. Grape leaves extra salty. Spinach pies were microwaved and tasted bad. This used to a nice restaurant that now morphed into a hooka joint. Very disappointing.
Food is cold amd smells bad. I ordered meat Arias and shish Kabob
Expensive but good hookah, food is average like other mediterranean places
First time here we sat in the patio. The food was amazing and the price was just right. They were a little busy but our waitress was nice and gave excellent service. We will definitely be back here again !!
I love this place!!! They have heaters in the patio. Very cozy and romantic. They even decorated for Valentine’s Day . Food was AMAZING!!!!!! Our waitress And the other staff there were very welcoming and gave fast service that made me feel at home!!! 100% recommend for a taste of the Lebanese food
Everything about this place was nearly perfect except the space its not that spaciousFood 8/10Customer service 6/10Environment 6/10Drinks BYOBHookah 10/10Parking 5/10Music 5/10
Good service, good food., Thank you guys
Love love love everything! The food is delicious they are fast and friendly. They have Hookah. Which is awesome. ..So FYI if you dont like smoke go in the warmer weather when you can sit outside with no smoke.
Dope place and the food was amazing. The only negative thing was the mosquitoes ate me up something terrible over there.
Worst staff ever the guy with muscles there very rude, was yelling at us for no reason , worst place setting and he lost a big business of 2000 $ because that what we paid 15 mins later when we find a very nice place with a friendly staff , actually you should close your place because your staff will close for you .good luck with this rude staff , by the way I already filled a complaint , please customers dont go there.
Two stars only because the food was somewhat ok and hookah was amazing but the service was terrible... she was lucky because tip was included because she would get 2% for the service provided... I get that she was maybe busy but we really aren’t needy so the 2 times she actually decided to approach us a little bit of kindness would’ve been nice. I’m talking about a bit chubby waitress whose name I don’t know but she really needs a serious work on her people skills.
The food was great. The customer service was even greater. I love the fact that they have an outside patio because Im not a smoker. I. Not into that hookah thing. I wanted middle eastern food and I sure enough got it with this location. The atmosphere was great for a late night. The hospitality was awesome. I went there a few months ago. I need to get back there soon.
If you want a taste of Lebanese food than look no further. Food is always great, staff is friendly. The summer is the best as you sit outside under the shade of grape leaves/vines they way one might in restaurants / homes in Lebanon. If you take hooka also, then this place is the best in the area. Go for a lemon mint or orange mint!
Great little BYOB spot with good food, music and hookah
What an amazing place. Small and quaint but everything ordered was phenomenal!!! And the staff is awesome!!! Definitely a place I will be coming back to many more times!!!
Decent food. Good hookah
Amazing food,atmosphere, and great ambiance in Clifton, NJ! Would definitely recommend. Just wish they had a better phone system in place we were calling for 20 min to place an order. Definitely worth it!!!
Great ambient excellent food!
The food was mediocre at best. Pretty blend, especially small items like hot wings and fries. Barely any salt on the fries. The prices are okay but def not worth it. Also the gratuity 18% is a bit ridiculous... no option to circle with or without the gratuity. Most people like myself didn’t even notice it at night because it just said “total” which included the gratuity. I don’t mind tipping because I left a tip on top of the gratuity but the shady method of putting it on the bill without giving clear options of (yes/no) is rather disappointing. With all that being said, their employees are very nice but the food is definitely not worth the price.
Order uber eats food is delicious . Meat taste so tasty and fresh . New customer
The best hookah and best food in the town and all New Jersey
I love this place! Great service....great food....and great hookah! You can sit outside even when its chilly, they have heaters on the patio.
Been here a few times now. It’s a very nice spot for hookah. They’ve good choices or flavors for hookah, and they keep introducing new flavors too. During our latest visit, we tried the blueberry one and it was amazing. Their Lebanese food options are also excellent. The pitas, hummus, egg plant options are too yummy. Their service is also super friendly. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.
Wonderful restaurant to visit. Food is good hookah and fun time
Amazing food and customer service !
Best place in jersey and best service
Phenomenal food. Chicken chops highly recommend. This place is BYOB, so pricing ends up being very moderate.
Beautiful place, delicious food and excellent service
This place has really authentic food i came with my boyfreind the other day and he went nuts about the food , staff is great!!
Love this place ! Very nice workers
My friends treated me there I must say was great. Mostly customer service was great that’s the only reason I am giving a 5 star. The food on the other hand wasn’t that well. They put way too much salt in the fries.
Very good food
Good hookah, hookah guy did not change my charcoal and ended up with no smoke me and my friend, I couldn’t find him either to tell him. Tabouleh was really bad and I left most of it on the table. The fatteh makanek and hummus and baba ganoush were great! The girl waiter was also really nice and it was quick service.
His the best I love it
My husband and I love finding treasures of authentic cuisine without leaving NJ. The owner is glowing with pride and with a good reason. Food is absolutely delicious. Hookah is done right. Place is clean and service was excellent!!!
Nice staff & chill place
Been coming here somewhat often recently.Parking is relatively easy although there is only street parking. Ive never struggled to find a spot though.They have 3 sections of the restaurant: a completely outdoor section which is partially covered and obviously not open in the colder months, a covered porch like section, and the actual restaurant. Ive always preferred either the outdoor or the porch area.The service has always been very good. All of the waiters and waitresses have been accommodating and helpful.Food here is pretty good. Whenever we have come we like to order these sandwiches they serve which are the perfect size and very delicious.
I love the food here, however the personal is not kind at all. 2 times when dining inside I’ve seen people smoking regular cigarettes and nobody said anything about it. That’s just not acceptable for me. Last time they didn’t want to let my kids eat the bagels I brought for them. I left the place and don’t think I’ll come back. We went to Yasmeen Restaurant, a little further down the Street and had a wonderful time instead!
Amazing food and great service
Delicious good and wonderful atmosphere
Amazing food clean spot nice music and the hookah so clean and nice flavors
Very comfy. The Dolmades were TOP NOTCH. Very very good hummus. Solid falafel. Looking forward to try other menu items.
Food is great, but the service is always pretty slow.
Good food. Very good service.
Food is decent. Place is pretty old looking which is fine but the fact that they automatically add 18% gratuity on your check no matter how many people is not a good practice.2 things to look out for..1. Automatic gratuity2. Bringing bottled water without asking.
Israel is the type of proficiency in customer service to manage to be a manager :) attention to the owner
Best Arugula salad ! Yum, love it
Marvelous food. They even let you bring your own drink
The decor, food and service were top notch. The food was fresh and made to perfection. Highly recommended.
