took a star off bec table was small and a/c hardly worked. the food was fantastic. had the meat hummus platter. waitress got a huge tip bec i was so impressed with how graciously she handled the heat. she kept making sure we had what we needed. i never saw a restaurant where the waitress is also the busboy and sweeping floors. would have expected to see a busboy in such a busy establishment. would i come back? if i was in the area yes. but for a business lunch meeting definitely no

This place is a GEM, and I don’t say that often. It is a cute little cozy place in Englewood with scrumptious dishes. To start, my family decided on the Appetizer Combo, for which you choose three appetizers for just $ 13.75. We ordered the kibbeh with tahini dip, stuffed grape leaves, and my personal favorite of the appetizers, the roasted eggplant that made my mouth yearn for more. For my meal, I got the Falafel Sandwich. First off, I am very picky when it comes to falafel balls, and this one DEFINITELY passes. The atmosphere was super-friendly, and the serving size well exceeds the price. And of course, their hummus is very decadent, creamy, and tasty, living up to its reputation.

Love love love this place. We had the falafel platter and the Schnitzel which were both really really good. This was one of the best falafel I have ever had. The staff and prices are good too.

Nicely located in downtown Englewood, this is a small cozy place and one of our most favorite places in town. the menu has a variety of options and everytime we have tried something we have liked it. This time we tried the hummus sabich platter and the chicken kebab sandwich. Both were awesome! The food is really filling and hence perfect for brunch! Bring your friends here for a lovely treat! Wish they were open even for dinner all days!

I love me some falafels and have been scoping out hummus elite for quite some time now. Being I work in the area it was only a matter of time before I would get the chance to see what they are all about. My coworker and I ordered the lunch special which they have going on Monday — Friday up until 4PM, and they give you two options(vegetarian or meat lunch special) I decided to order the vegetarian lunch special which consists of you choice of a sandwich plus an appetizer and soda and my coworker got the meat lunch special. The falafel sandwich was served in the most delicious soft pita bread and served with fries, some type of cabbage slaw that added a nice crunch to the sandwich and tahini. I wish I remembered that there was going to be tahini in it because I have never been a fan of it but the flavor wasn’t over powering. The falafel were large and flavorful and I really enjoyed them. The hummus that I got as my appetizer was very smooth in consistency but I wish I got something added to it like meat. could of used a little extra flavor to make it really good. Also wish they sent more than one pita for my hummus. The delivery was pretty quick and the food was nice and hot when it got here. I will be back to try out some more of what they have to offer.

There are days when I am craving Hummus Elite for its Humshuka Platter. I am absolutely in love with this dish! The over easy poached egg along with a stew made of tomato, peppers, and onions over perfectly flavored hummus is to die for! I always end up ordering an extra warm, whole wheat pita to scrape the residue off my plate. I give Hummus Elite four stars. Although the food is satisfying, the service can be better.

Hummus Elite is by far the best Mediterranean food I have ever tried! The waiters were so friendly, greeting us at the door and checking to make sure we were comfortable and happy. The service was quick which was perfect for my business lunch. I have tried hummus from different restaurants and always thought I never liked it, but the hummus here is unbelievable. The kebabs, salads, and hummus tasted so fresh and authentic. It is always a disappointment when you go to a restaurant and eat food that tastes like it has been sitting there for a while. But trust me, Hummus Elite will not disappoint. I am excited to become a regular at this establishment !!!

Best shawarma, hummus and falafel ever. You can tell everything is so fresh and homemade since the first bite. Stuff is nice and they make your time there so comfortable. If you are lucky and you find their short rib sandwich in the specials don’t have any doubt about to order it, AMAZING. It was our second time there and it will be a third one

Until coming here, I thought hummus was just a little side dish for dipping crackers or veggies. But here, it could satiate as a stand alone meal. It has spoiled me for all other hummus. Store bought brands simply do not compare. And that’s just the start… the lamb, the chicken, the rice dishes, the pita, everything is really appetizing. Great ambiance, kid friendly, and super strong service all around. I’ve made the trip from Brooklyn several times and it is well worth the distance. Already recommended friends, and they loved it too.

Hummus Elite is such a great place for a quick lunch. The restaurant is a small cozy place with only a small amount of tables. Maria, the waitress, is super sweet and personable. We always get their homemade soups(which are to die for) and their shawarma sandwiches on whole wheat pita. Consistently good food.

The ambiance is great in here. Although a tad bit small, and a cold draft comes in every time someone open or closed the door and us freezing for a good 10 seconds every few mins, the food is great and the servers are very polite and happy to take suggestions. Just came here on our lunch break and happy to go back again to try the lamb next time!

STAYAWAY! Food is a 3.5. Service is poor. The staff are very rude and the owners as well. In Israel where poor service is common this place would be great. By US standards this place sucks. They tried to heard three of us into a table for two while the place was empty. They said they had to hold the bigger tables for parties of four. They charge a delivery charge uncommon with any local eatery for delivery. Also they generally get the order wrong on the phone. They never smile and the staff all look a bit depressed.

Went here for lunch on a recent business trip and really enjoyed the food. I’m not a hummus person, so I can’t speak to that, but I thoroughly enjoyed my grape leaves appetizer(some of the better ones I’ve had) and the salad I chose that had roasted beets, apples, walnuts, and raspberry vinaigrette was tasty and light and hit the spot amongst the heavier meals I was indulging in. The restaurant is small, and the staff were friendly and attentive. Nice little place!

I ordered for a beef kebab with rice and the kebabs are still raw on the inside that’s why I wasn’t able to finish all of it and then the sauce that goes along with the kebabs didn’t really matched that’s one more reason why I didn’t enjoy the lunch and the reception is not that warm or as accommodating and you feel like you don’t belong in there but I really wanted a Greek dish and have tried other restaurants in this area, I should’ve stick to my go to Greek restaurant in the area. The serving portion justifies the price but they need to improve their condiments and make sure that it matches the dish.

Love, Love, the food!!! Only one person was serving us, but was very nice and did apologize for the wait which wasn’t long but the fact that she was very considerate made me happy. I only had apps… You’ll understand why I didn’t order an entrée. Live and learn. Lol. We had the –Hummus –Eggplant appetizer –Organic boiled egg –Falafel It was a lot and my eyes were hungrier than my stomach. Hehehe… It was so good by far the creamiest and great tasting hummus I’ve had and it wasn’t hot. I like it hot. Great little find while I was in Englewood, NJ again. Thanks again. Apologies for the half eating plates. Lol just remembered to take a pic while half way in devouring this meal. Enjoy peeps.

Was very impressed with the food and service here. Came in on Christmas Eve and there was a lot of bustle, yet the service was on point. We order the big plate of hummus with seasoned meat. VERY tasty, but the meat was a bit too well done and kinda tough. Turkish coffee wasn’t as strong as I know it to be, but it was yummy. Pita was super warm and fresh. And they have this house spicy chili paste… to DIEFOR! I am impressed with you. I definitely plan on returning with a bigger appetite and a bottle of wine.
