I dined with my husband one busy day and the restaurant was packed. Most of the customers are in the retirement age, and fascinating to observe these people. The restaurant is small but homey and super clean (including their counter and kitchen). We were greeted with a server but never led us to our table. We were asked though for how many persons but left us to choose which table to use. We were given the menu but did not explain their specials (it's our first time to dine here). They gave a complimentary appetizer, and I had chicken and my husband fish. It wasn't as tasty as I was expecting (I had a kebab a day before from another restaurant and they were better than I had here). The chicken was chewy and the vegetable was burned. The fish was bland, nothing greeky. We had tasted better food than these folks.Maybe we ordered the wrong food, I don't know. We won't go back.

This is small, virtually undecorated establishment. They have closed direct access from NJ 4, so getting in was a little tricky. Ask ahead. Å full lunch at around $10 with generous portions was a real bargain. But the quality was uneven. Pita bread and hummus were excellent. Swarma with beef was tasty. I know Middle Eastern usually is lamb, but I and many others prefer beef in the US. Baklava really seemed to have been made by grandma. But a felafel plate was horrid and was not finished. If you stick with the good dishes, you-and your wallet-will enjoy this place.

All I can say is wow was this delicious, well-price, and satisfying! The hummus and shwarma are amazing! The service is really good: the waiters are very friendly and attentive to you. The outside patio is also an added bonus too! I would definitely go there again.

Came here twice so far. Once with neighbors and last time with boss. Fabulous place. Eat in or out. Always busy. Sometimes long line to get in. Depending on how far your willing to walk. You can’t skip the “looking for parking on the Blvd” and walk there. Great great food!

Reviewed By Layla F

I have been here several times through out the years. This place is nicely decorated and the menu has a nice variety. The only problem is i think the main dishes are a bit overpriced for the portion. But the food is good. I tried the liver and it was great. Used to be more flavorful before. But still good. Rice pudding is awesome. Deserts are a must here. I wad also very much impressed by the service. Very attentive servers. I will be back again.

Excellent gyro. For 6 bucks, enough meat and other good things to feed 2. And delicious. Spicy but not burning. Order your meal at the counter and they bring it to you at your table. A lot better and fresher than pre-cooked burgers. Have a gyro and be stuffed until you go to bed.

Toros Turkish Restaurant in Clifton is the original of this four location restaurant and our favorite. Authentic Turkish menu with all types of lamb, chicken, beef, seafood items. Full bar and valet parking on weekends make this a pleasurable go to place. Wonderful, friendly staff.

Oceanos Restaurant

This is the story of the Panteleakis family and their dedication to what they know best - what they share most - what they love. Ask anyone who has been here.They will tell you about the home made bread, rolled and baked by the hands of Peter, the owner.

We recently discovered Oceanos. The food is fabulous. Roasted Beets with Almond Garlic sauce is amazing. The Tuna Tartar and Salmon were spectacular too. However the service was slow and inattentive. Our server added extra drinks to our bill and refused to remove them. Be forewarned check your bill carefully. Be prepared to be overwhelmed by the chef and underwhelmed by the service.
