The People Love Us

Wessam
Abu Zayn is hands down one of the BEST local dining experiences I've ever had! We went for lunch, and from the moment our group walked in, the owner, Omar, welcomed us like family.
Samir Nawaz
New Egyptian spot in Long Island. Small location with limited seating, about 5 to 6 tables, so it definitely gets packed (which means food is good) Place got a nice vibe, good decor and EXCELLENT customer service.
Rifat Islam
Abu Zayn has quickly become one of our favorite spots on Long Island. This was our third visit since it opened, and every time the food and experience get even better. It's such a treat to finally have authentic halal Egyptian food nearby
Courtney Stern
The best Egyptian food on Long Island. 💕🙏❤️ The marinated Shawarma meats on hanging skewer were so flavorful. We tried the chicken and beef Shawarma platter, eggplant side, Egyptian salad, and fries. All the flavors blended so nicely.
Torri Serv
This was my first time trying a chicken shawarma bowl, and I'm glad I tried it here. The chicken was tender, rice perfectly cooked, and everything tasted really fresh. The price felt reasonable for the portion and quality.
Sewdat Ramgoolam
Mixed grill and humus were the best we had around. Lots of flavor and very tender. Can't wait to expolore the rest of the menu.

Spot by for lunch with my girlfriend and I was very surprised. The food was delicious and for the price the portions were massive. The chef who I found out is the owner made me feel very welcomed and like we've been friends for a while.

Best Egyptian food I've had in NY hands down. My wife and I loved the mixed grill platter and for dessert we had Umm Ali and creme brulee. The owner's hospitality is off the charts and we will be coming back Insh'Allah.
