Food is pretty good and the service as well. It's just if you take your leftover food to go MAKE SURE to ask for a sealed container instead of the foam cheap open all around thing that they provide. That is if you want to avoid a hefty dry cleaners bill along with losing your food and gaining aggravation.
I need a couple of glatt kosher meals. Do you deliver to the Chicago area near anshe meet temple? Would you deliver the meals on Friday? I'm having a mitzvah and 2 of my guests need a glatt kosher meal. Thank you.

I realize you posted this 3 months ago but Glatt Kosher applies to meat, not dairy. This is a dairy place, not a meat one.

Day five on Coney Island ave wow !!!
A great cozy place to have one of the best meals I've had in a long time
Sushi was good but my favorite dish was the tuna pizza if you live in California it's worth a plane ride
And I'm not a big fan of fried foods but was forced into trying the fried Oreos all I have to is OMG!
Bravo to the owner and chef plus being in the business for over 25 years I have yet to meet a more qualified manager Ari a big plus to this establishment

Best dairy kosher restaurant- they have excellent food and excellent service! It is just an overall wonderful dining experience!
Awesome place, awesome food, good service Great neck needed this.. I hope it can make it and stays around for a long time. Be generous to your customers and they will be generous back to you.. the open salad bar rocks! 10$ min per salad bar plate sounds fair. The kid menu is great and the right price.. another reason I will go back
Enjoyed several dishes from Estihana. Each dish was authentic and flavorful. My compliments to the chefs!

Consistantly well prepared and fresh offerings at this pretty place. Even though we have enjoyed dining here numerous times, the menu is expansive enough not to be bored. Keep up the great service and yashar koach to the chef who definately knows what he ( or she) is doing.
went here lastnight great food great service the bartender was very kind and attentive along with our male server jeremy the steak was out of this world

My grandson said it was the best meal he ever had! Really nice staff!!!.... and very patient with the kids!!! Can't wait for our next trip
My daughter and I were in Mexico City last week and had dinner at the restaurant. The food was great - especially the empanadas - and the staff was wonderful - the chef Israel, the waiters and the valet parkers. As a matter of fact, on Christmas Day when it was impossible to get a cab, one of the men at the stand drove us to our hotel himself. We went back just before we left and had another great dinner and were welcomed by each and every employee once again. We HIGHLY recommend the Gaucho Grill to anyone in Mexico City.
If there would be a ten star rating this Orchidea would get it. We just made a Sheva Brochos for 60 people and from the food to the service was first class. Ofer, went out of his way to fulfill everyone's request. 10 Stars!
This is the best sushi in the world! I come here every day(literally my parents own it). Try the day 5 fries, crispy rice, tuna pizza and delicious desserts!
We were at your restaurant in august and had a great meal. The kids loved their choices and so did I. When we go to LA again we would revisit. The menu is extensive!

We were in LA in august and we went to your restaurant two or three times. It was amazing! The brunch was so tasty and the servers were some of the best I have had ANYWHERE! The tomato dippy thing that you serve when you just come in was unforgettable. I have tried to recreate it but I think it has to do with the outstanding tomatoes that you can get only in California. My family loved the pizzas and the cheesecake. I had a salmon salad that was a little over cooked, however. All in all, it was a great experience away from home, Thanks so much for everything.
B'H hola shavua tov estaremos en buenos ayres para ele Shabat de december 20 y me gustaria saber q clase de comidas listas ustedes puden disponibilizar y si es necesario reservaciones. a q horas abren el viernes??? que nos recomiendam hacer??? atentamente melany torres
Menu looks fantastic. Should get rid of fifty cent charge for dressing on burger and fifty cent charge for mixing iceberg, romaine, and mesclun as opposed to being served a single type of leaf. Looks like a promising addition to Great Neck.
i ordered the galaxy sushi and OMG it was amazing. the sauces the size portion the everything was amazing! highly recommending the sushi to my friends.
Fumio Grill & Sushi
Nina Levinson- 12/07/13 Although a little hidden, Fumio provided my family and I an exceptional Kosher dinning experience. Their menu was very creative, incorporating off the grill entrees and tasty out of the ordinary sushi options they've successfully managed to include a little something for everyone. (A little pricey but the portions were HUGE!!) The manager, Abie. was very welcoming and down to earth. The staff was charismatic and helpful when deciding what to order. If I had to leave a complaint it would be the that the food took s little long to be prepared. DEFINITELY make a reservation before showing up. It wouldve made my dinning experience all the more fantastic. All in all if you're looking for a wonderful experience and delicious Kosher food Fumio is the place to be. (It's also conveniently located near the short hills mall, perfect for a nice dinner after some heavy shopping)
Fantastic food. The tapas are exceptional, authentic, and clearly conceived by a well schooled chef! Congrats. He uses the Spanish and Latino ingredients beautifully. Now, let me mention the design. That too is a WOW -- the Diego Rivera paintings for one, not to mention the really fine cocktails, and elegant but not snobby service. Go!
Loved Pardes. Original dishes, well constructed and well conceived. Delicious. The service is excellent. Dishes are explained and everyone working there has a positive vibe. A great addition to the area.
The food is absolutely the best... superb! However, the service is slow. Last time we were there, it took an hour to get served. Needs improvement.
Green rainbow sushi
Judi- 10/22/13
My sisterhood hosted a trip to NY this Sunday and we ate lunch at Estihana in Manhattan. Lunch was delicious! One of the items on our menu was Green Rainbow Sushi. Normally, I'm not much of a sushi eater, but this was incredible and I would love to know the ingredients used in this dish. I know that the top was thinly sliced cucumber, but what went into the sushi roll? Thank you, Judi
Owner Avi Cohen has outdone himself with the newly opened, La Brochette. Beautifully appealing architecture and ambience lends its way to the deliciously tasty French cuisine served up at this upscale steakhouse in the heart of midtown Manhattan.
Upon entry you will be warmly welcomed by the friendly and knowledgeable staff who will seat you at your table and floor of
preference – as there are three levels to choose from. White tablecloths and napkins grace the warm mahogany tables which are decked out ever so elegantly with fine china, flatware and clean cut glassware. The artfully designed menus are loaded with decadent dishes to choose from. Steaks are juicy and seared to perfection and their sushi is par excellence. Every bite off of every dish is bursting with fresh flavors and the presentations are inspiringly creative.
On “live nights” enjoy being serenaded by violinists or saxophonists which definitely adds some joie de vivre. So when looking for a night out on the town La Brochette is the ultimate dining experience!
The best place to eat. The food is great and the service is awesome. Jacob and Shoshana Ben-Shitrit are such great hosts and I really enjoy coming to eat here. It is worth a drive from anywhere.

Levy's Kosher Italian
Shana M. - 10/14/13
We moved to the area a couple of months ago and started to keep a Kosher home. We were so thrilled that the food was really good. This is now our "go to" place.
Reply #1 submitted by: Debra Levy on 12/07/13
I'm so glad you're enjoying the food! Welcome to the neighborhood!
I think it is great to have a Kosher Chinese restaurant, but they shouldn't promote it by saying it is "reasonably priced".If you order an appetizer, soup and any dish you could easily go to well over $60 a person without adding for drinks and dessert and tax and tips. To me that is not reasonably priced.
Reply #1 submitted by: Elan Kornblum, Publisher on 09/25/13
For Manhattan standards and pricing that is almost reasonable.
The finest and tastiest Sushi anywhere. It is so good that you don't want to swallow. For the translation of "betampt" try any of their special sushis. The finest employers, my finest customer, and perhaps the most ehrlich businessmen in the food industry. We wish them continued success in ruchnius and gashmias this year.
The food was fabulous! We like the new look. We were regulars at La Carne Grill and missed it terribly. This is a really great place. Service was outstanding. Only one criticism, the musician (which is a nice idea), really didn't play for us. He played for two minutes and then went out to smoke. He also kept running back and forth without playing anything. We were the only ones in the restaurant. Just to be clear we loved the restaurant and hopes it succeeds!
wow is all I have to say me and my wife just went our for are 20th annversery at Haifa and the service was 5 star and so dynamic ive never ever incountered great service like I did at Haifa wow................. and the food was so dynamic and tasty and the owner came out to make sure we were treated great im so very impressed and me and my wife will be back............
excellent sushi rolls and fresh salads...highly recommend!
Kosher restaurant in Warsaw
Dave- 08/26/13
INCREDIBLE! Glatt kosher restaurant, with sofisticated delicious food! I couldn't belive... Galil - new restaurant located in the old building, near Warsaw synagouge... What I can tell more - it was amazing dinner . I regret that they are not in the neighborhood...
I work in the neighborhood and had enjoyed the lunch buffet several times. The price was good, the food excellent, and the service great! I brought colleagues as well who are used to spending time in NYC dining in varied and high end places and they were impressed with the cuisine. Because Orchidea is elegant while at the same time warm and friendly, it occurred to me that it may be perfect for my son's Bar Mitzvah. From the moment Ofer took on this celebration, I was in good hands. He listened to all the details of what I wanted, added his own ideas, completely took care of everything. The Bar Mitzvah was beautifully arranged, the table setting elegant, the food delicious and artfully presented. Each place setting had a personalized menu with a bar mitzvah them and my son's name on it. The menu was generous and included salad, soup, main course and dessert. The guests were very pleased with the service and the ambience and my son felt that his day was a very special one. We had small children and they were accommodated without issue as well as a very last minute guest list, which created no challenge at all for Ofer. The waiters were fantastic, even pitching in to help with pictures. My son couldn't decide which table he wanted and they switched the head table 3 times without the slightest appearance of being at all put out. Ofer baked a beautiful large challah specially the morning of the bar mitzvah. The day couldn't have been better and we thank Orchidea staff and management for the personalized attention, the attention to detail and for delivering on the ask. A special thanks to Ofer Kohen! Thanks, Ofer!
Finally a good kosher restaurant near Disney. I went to some of the kosher restaurant with my family but none can compare to Voka rest. The waitress was all smiles and very helpful and dinner was amazing. Everything was delicious. So much that we went twice. Best steaks ever.
Fabulous Falafell
Jerry diamond- 08/17/13
Pita Plus on Sterling Ave in Hollywood Beach has one of the best falafels I have ever tasted
Food was excellent ... but be aware that the local police set up a radar speed trap on Corlies Avenue for anyone going over 25 mph, even though the limit on identical street in neighboring town is 40 mph! Police recognize the absurdity of this hateful, politically motivated trap. I would avoid Allenhurst. Sodom and Gomorrah had pretty good food too, but it was a place to avoid.
Gluten-free
Hope- 08/17/13
Any recommendations for gluten free in Five Towns?
The food was wonderful. I had the grilled water melon salad (surprisingly delicious) and the spicy/peppered steak, indeed spicy, very savory and cooked perfectly "medium". We are happy that, finally, there is a kosher restaurant to eat a proper restaurant meal when we visit Disney.
The food was good, service was pleasant. But $4.00 for a can of coke??? Oh, and they added the tip already onto the Bill which is fine except that the bottom of the Bill has suggested amounts for the tip so if you are not paying attention you will end up adding on an additional amount and unknowingly tipping 30-35% instead of the usual 15-20%.
Purple Pear Monsey
Allen Samuels- 08/12/13
Having a birthday lunch tomorrow for my daughter. I came in from New Orleans and we are so looking forward to being at the Purple Pear in Monsey The menu looks great and I want to try everything!!!! and its all kosher!!! Happy Birthday Philyss Samuels Seidenfeld, love daddy
Purple Pear Monsey
Fast foodie- 08/12/13
The place is pretty nice for a sit-down lunch or dinner. It usually gets pretty crowded, being the only dairy 'restaurant' in Monsey, (Al Di La deserves mention here, but for some reason Purple Pear is frequented much more). The food is great, it has lots of taste and the service is good. I had the French onion soup, and would not recommend it to anyone, however the fish items were great.
Love the place, service is quick - the way fast food ought to be. The menu is very extensive (although they dont always have everything availble). The food that imtried so far has been really tasty, evem the chinese dishes are made quick. One down side, The Schwarma guy is nasty, perhaps they should consider getting a nicer fellow.
