Never really noticed this place until today, and WOW! The food is great. This is my first time trying a chicken gyro and it certainly won’t be the last time! Very flavorful and portions are generous. I was a bit confused on ordering, but the lady at the counter was very helpful! Service was quick. I definitely recommend this place!

One of the best Mediterranean places I’ve ever had at a mall. It was real filling food, not the cheap stuff you might find at other malls. Alex was a very kind individual and you can tell he’s been doing this for years. I had the gyro dinner plate and the serving was very big. It came with a small salad, hummus, rice, and lots of gyro meat. Would definitely go back to Alex’s over a lot of places in the mall. A great choice for a filling meal!

I had a falafel Gyro from here. Crazy delicious! Good amount of hot sauce, white sauce and all the fixings! Falafel had a crispy outside with a soft center. Honestly wish more people gave them a try. I would even go as far as to say better than Halah Guys.

Highly recommend checking this place out if you're in the area. I had the falafel in a pita and really enjoyed it. The falafel was made to order and well seasoned. I will agree that, compared to other food court options the menu is limited, however it's important to note that Alex's isn't a chain. The small menu allows them to focus on a few things and do them well. It's, in my opinion, becoming rarer to see non-chain options in mall food courts, so I always try them when I find them. I'm so glad I did!

It may be in the mall but its one of the best middle eastern restaurants outside of Paterson. I don't think you can get falafel with this kinda texture anywhere else in Central Jersey.
