Delicious delicious Deeeeeelicious. Ordered the Arayes and was waaaaaaaaay better than I expected. Wish I ate inside and told the cashier how good it was but had to run for work 😭. Otherwise. Recommend coming here and will come back in the future.
This restaurant was sooooo good! The service was some of the best and the food was the best I had on my whole trip. They were all so helpful and accommodating!! Would 100% come back on my next visit!
Received food boxes half opened, same with sauces. Food spilled out. And inside the box, the food is so mixed together. See pictures. Aside from all that, the only flavor comes from the extra sauces, not the actual food.
My friends and I came in for lunch last week and we had a ton of great food while in Astoria, but this was hands down the best place we had eaten at all week. The hummus was insane and our food portions were so generous. The staff were incredibly kind, patient, and helpful. I’m sitting about 5 days out from this meal and I am still thinking about it. Can’t wait to go back to Queens just to eat at this place again!
Your food is absolutely great, You just have to cut down on the salt. Everything is too SALTY! Customers can always add more salt but they cannot take it out if it's too much. Think of people with some health issues. Although I gave you five stars, lets try & cut down on the salt. Thank You
food was delicious! we ordered the mixed grill plater plus the mango passion fruit drink -off menu but a MUST, it goes perfectly with the food!!! the platter was amazing! you get a little bit of everything in one bite plus a bit of sauce on the pita!!! delicious!!!!! 11/10!!!
Wonderful atmosphere! Anna does her job really well, along with the cooks and other workers. We are blessed to be able to eat here. The chicken shawarma and the chicken schnitzel were fantastic! All the sauces were great! Falafel is a great snack as well :)
One of the best meals I have eaten in New York. I’ve been here multiple times and love the chicken shawarma and schnitzel! Anna, the manager, has been so friendly and has great service. I would recommend Duzan to everyone!
The food was amazing and fast! The service was amazing, nice staff, little wait time for the food. The place was clean and felt cozy. I would recommend the mix shawarma platter!
Ordered takeout and the bag they packed the food in completely ripped a few blocks away. Called the store to explain what happened and they basically took no responsibility since the bag was intact when I walked out of the store. Said I’d get a call from the manager and I never did. IMO if you’re offering takeout service you have the responsibility to securely pack the food. This was not acceptable to me.
I've been a regular customer at DUZAN in Astoria for over a decade, and it deserves five-star review.<br>The service is consistently great—friendly, attentive, and welcoming, making you feel right at home whether you’re rushing in for a quick lunch or settling down for dinner.<br>The restaurant is always impeccably clean, which speaks volumes about their commitment to quality. Most importantly, the food is exceptional.<br>The quality of the ingredients is evident in every dish, and everything is always fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared.<br>After ten-plus years of visits, I can confidently say that DUZAN is a must-try. I highly recommend it for both lunch and dinner. If you're looking for fantastic food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere in Astoria, this is the spot.
Duzan is one of my favorite places, it’s very affordable and tasty. I always get their pita sandwiches, pictures is their chicken schnitzel. A great mix of chicken and veggies. They also have great juices. I will always return here
The chicken shawarma platter with hummus and salad is SO DELICIOUS THAT I DAYDREAM ABOUT IT!!! It is healthy, flavorful, and so, so good. It comes with pickles, pita, and delicious garlic sauce. I’m told that I’m a harsh food critic but this place is a 10/5!!!! Absolutely amazing! Friendly employees, and nice ambiance. They have a sit in area.
I ordered two chicken shawarmas and fries. The shawarma was packed and very tasty. It was filled with tahini, thinly sliced shawarma chicken, salad, and their unique white sauce. The fries were also good and were served with white sauce and the special Duzan sauce on the side. The workers were very respectful and the place was welcoming. The shawarma was fulling and exceeded my expectations. Overall, Duzan is a place I will definitely visit again.
