Avocado Eatery, Sushi And Gyro House(HALAL) — Restaurant in Paterson

Truly a breath of fresh air for halal food considering the Hispanic theme with their food. We ordered the following: Salchipapas - 8/10. The chicken sausage had a good amount of spice and salt (texture is a bit firmer than a hotdog). The fries were nice and crispy, well seasoned. The cheese is an add-on, and it boosted the flavor.

Shaolin wrap - 9/10 if you love sushi and want a fusion (Hispanic-Japanese), this is perfect. I’ve never had something like this, so the uniqueness makes it standout. The flavor was exceptional - Kano salad was nice with a bit of spice from the spicy mayo, and the crunch from the shrimp tempura was phenomenal. By far the best thing I’ve had here. This will probably be my go-to wrap if I’m around.

Avocado wrap - 6/10. It was good for what it was, but I felt like this was something you’d make at home. Good seasoning on the chicken, somewhat flavorful.

Overall, I was happy with the food and service. Very comforting and delicious. I will definitely return for that shaolin wrap!

Side note: some of the food is $1 more than what is...

We came to this place during the pandemic, for dine in, the lady stacked on a 25% fee… horrible service, but the food was amazing. This time around, we decided to do take out to avoid fees. Granted we always tip, but something about being forced to tip is ridiculous. The sushi was great, but not what we ordered. I’m assuming they were out of certain things so they just came up with something close to what we ordered. They were still great, so no complaints. The yarao, on the other hand, was nothing like when we ordered the first time. It was a fast food feel plate with nacho cheese and fries. It stated it came with maduros and we didn’t get any. For the sushi, ok. But if you’re looking for authentic Dominican food go...

Make sure you read your receipt!! I paid with my debit card. They gave me the first receipt with 18% gratuity included. The second Receipt requiring my signature had a 2nd tip included of about 12%. In that receipt, they were asking me for additional tip SMH. In addition, they charged a credit card fee.

In regards to service, the waitress was friendly and accommodating. Food was ok but pricey ($5.50 for each lemonade). We had la caleña, Paterson, and heart attach sushi, Plus 1 order of wings (4 pieces), and 2 lemonades ($70). We sat outside, where there were flies and bees constantly flying around us.

I will NEVER return nor...
