Reviews for Fasil Mediterranean Restaurant in Boonton, NJ

I love turkish/mediterranean food and was excited to try this restaurant based on all the great reviews. The restaurant is... located in a large shopping plaza so parking is not an issue. It wasn't busy when we visited but we were greeted right away andoffered seating either indoors or outdoors. The menu was as I expected in terms of what they offered. They had a lunch specialfor $19.99 that included a soup or salad, 1 cold appetizer, and an entree. The whole meal experience built up to a high notebut quickly tapered off. The soup of the day was chicken or lentil. The chicken soup looked interesting almost like Elmer'sglue. It tasted like chicken but lacked seasoning. The lentil soup was the better of the two. The best part of the meal was thecold appetizer and pita. We chose hummus as our appetizer. It was creamy, garlicky, and paired so well with the pita. I couldhave had a whole bowl of hummus and pita. For entrees we chose chicken adana and chicken kebab. The kebab looked reallydelicious but sadly the adana was the better of the two. The kebab was made with white meat. Although tender, it lackedseasoning and had a weird bitter after taste. Perhaps its a seasoning they used? The portion size was just ok forlunch. Overall, the meal was just mediocre but service was good. Next time I'd skip entree and just order the hummus. Read more

What a treat! Traditional, family run, authentic food. These folks know how to do it right. Delicious choices from an excellent... kitchen. Front of the house staff is welcoming and top notch professionals. Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Read more

Came here for first time today. Nice little outdoor seating area (especially for a strip mall- you’d never know because they... have it decorated very tastefully). Food was delicious with great portions all served with delicious warm pita. They have whatlooks like amazing weekday lunch specials so we want to come back for sure. Waiter was very nice and attentive always makingsure our water glasses were full on a hot day. Going to come back to post food pics. Forgot to take them today ????. Read more

Delicious as always! Mixed cold app, the white bean salad and the chicken yogurt kebab (the hidden pieces of bread are great)... made for a perfect meal for two with leftovers. Read more

Nice variety, especially lamb. Great ambiance, good service. A bit pricey. Go and try it.

Food was very tasty and it was a nice experience. Went with a large group. Had 4 appetizers (2 large Shepards salads & 2... hummus), entree, tea or coffee and 2 deserts to split. I had the chicken kabobs. Everything was fresh and tasty and it was a funexperience but I thought it was pretty pricey for what it was. Read more

The food was good, I really enjoyed it. However the service wasn’t pleasant enough. Also, the server made an Angry Bird like... face after I tipped him 18% of my bill and his behavior was like I caused him a terrible pain. The owner or the manager shouldtake this review into the consideration and take appropriate action against him. Read more

I can’t understand why this place has 4.5 stars. The picture attached is the falafel kebab that costs $21. The rice is over... salted and the falafel is so dry that eating this, is pure punishment. Where do you get off charging $21 for this? The redlentil soup tastes like aspirin. Save yourself some money and go literally anywhere else. There are so many good Mediterraneanrestaurants in NJ this is not one of them. Read more
