Fast casual restaurant serving delicious shawarma! I tried the chicken shawarma sandwich, which was a bit pricey, but the portions definitely make up for the cost. It was filled with chicken, a light salad, and the perfect amount of garlic sauce. Will be coming back to try other items!

Authentic Lebanese and middle Eastern cuisine. Chicken rotisserie is one of its kind. Everything here is delicious. The chef kept similar quality of his dishes to the first day I discovered it. Please try their chicken rotisserie and falafel dipped in Tahini. Oh, dont forget the wide variety of oriental desert.

The Food was absolutely delicious. Having been to Beirut once in my life, I can say the atmosphere is reminiscint of it. The food was delicious and brought me back to when I was younger and eat Lebanese food more often. Definitely recommend.

I've been coming here for almost 25 years ever since I can remember with my mother. This place is hands down my favorite Lebanese restaurant. Never fails 10 out of 10 for sure 🤩

The first time I ate from Karam, I was six years old. I am now 21 and still enjoy it as much as I did in 2010, maybe even more. The guys at the counter are always kind and make their customers feel special. I've moved to another state, but still visit family every year. When they ask me what I want to eat, I will always ask for a chicken shawarma from Karam :)

My family has been coming here for decades. Their shawarmas are UNMATCHED. So delicious! Their prices have increased over the years, but it’s always so worth it. Their sandwiches are large and filling, and their stuffed grape leaves are to die for—best I’ve ever had. Please come here for the best authentic Lebanese food

Highly recommend! Ordered the mixed shawarma sandwich after the proprietor/manager very generously offered me a taste of both. It was delicious - moist, flavorful and generously portioned. Far exceeded my expectations and I will certainly return to try some other items.

The wraps are packed with flavor. Whether you’re craving a quick bite or a satisfying meal, Karam delivers both in taste and quality. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy genuine Lebanese fast food!

I had such a fantastic experience at this restaurant! The food was absolutely awesome, and the prices were very reasonable. The staff were incredibly sweet and helpful, making the meal even more enjoyable. The qatayef here are so good—seriously a must-try! The lemonade was refreshing and delicious, and the chicken was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back!

5 stars just for the absolutely amazing food! We literally just moved here yesterday and I was craving some really good shawarma a d this place looked like it might deliver so we decided to check it out. Starting off, just looking through the window I knew I was going to like the food. They had 2 of the vertical rotisseries of meat going as well as some whole chicken's roasting. They had a case full of different savory pies, including my favorite, za'atar. Employees were polite but straight to the point which I really appreciated. Hubby and I both got the beef shawarma wrap and a za'atar pie to share. I was back in the Middle East with my first bite of food. The flatbread was soft and perfect and the toppings and fillings were so flavorful and delicious, I seriously wanted to cry. Been in New York about 24 hours and we already have a go to place.

The old timers. Tried and true. Excellent chicken shawarma and Lebanese classic dishes. Guys are friendly here and it fun to listen to them yell the details of the order. Also lots of exotic drinks and baklava.

Tasty, casual Lebanese joint. I had some sort of kebab, hummus and the tomato & onion pie. The tomato pie was a bit cold but I wasn't sure if that's how you eat it. I had a nice lunch here.

The restaurant in the Bay Ridge section of Brooklyn has Lebanese/Mediterranean food. I ordered the zaatar pie, shawarma combination with a small salad, fried cauliflower and lentils. The food was average in taste. The portion size was average. The restaurant has two separate sections-one is for takeout and the second is for dining in. However, if you dine in they call you that your food is ready. The customer is expected to pick up the food and then take a seat at an available table. Customer service could use an upgrade. Workers handling food wash your hands after touching and wiping face.

If you pay by card you are forced to pick a tip minimum 15%. They don't even bring you the food. The portions aren't good for the price. The large shawarma plate for 28 dollars was small in portion. The chicken they gave was a small amount. The chicken had little flavor. The hummus was bland.

I’ve been ordering from this restaurant for over 10 years, and I’m really disappointed with how things have changed. I recently ordered three lamb gyros and was charged $51, even though online the price is listed at $13–$14 each. The meat was dry, and the overall quality has declined — it mostly tastes dry, overcooked and lacks the flavor it used to have. $17 for one sandwich is not what you’d expect for takeout. I used to love ordering from here for my family, but sadly, the quality and pricing no longer make it worth it.

No flavor or seasoning, their hot sauce tasted like nothing. If you like unseasoned food, this would a be perfect place to come for that. It was also around $17 for one shawarma... I'm never coming back here

I spent $35 on this order and it was extremely disappointing. The lamb sandwich and fries arrived completely cold, dry, and not fresh. The meat was so hard and chewy that it was almost impossible to eat, and it felt like it had been sitting in the fridge for many hours. The fries were also cold and inedible. This is not the first time I’ve had this experience with this restaurant. It seems that when you order late in the day, they do not serve fresh food — instead it feels like they use items that have been sitting since earlier in the day. If you are going to order from here, I would only recommend going in person so you can make sure the food is fresh. If you order online, I strongly suggest calling first, because my order arrived completely cold. For the price they charge, customers deserve fresh, warm, and properly prepared food. I am posting this review so others are aware of my experience and so the restaurant hopefully improves the quality of what they are sending out.
