Excellent Lebanese eatery with lots of authentic middle eastern choices. This place is best known for chicken shawarma that is always a available here. The staffed grape leaves are excellent! Worth a visit if you are in this area of Beooklyn.

A neighborhood staple. This joint has been around for a generation. One feels right in the street of Beirut, Lebanon with all the hustle and castle of a street food parlor. And their Chicken Shwarma sandwich is amazing. Excellent stuffed grape leaves, Baba Ganoush and...hummus. If you are in a mood for an authentic Lebanese / Middle Eastern cuisine, you can not go wrong with this neighborhood staple.More

$15 for for the above title is nonsense and they should invest in a new chicken cooker device and not hid the the chicken as if it was their prized possession .

Last year during my visit of New York, we went at Karam Restaurant first time but this year I asked my son to go there again for dinner and especially to eat Baklava which is speciality of Karam. Last year it was small restaurant with...seating capacity for very few people but I am surprised to see now with double of seating space by adding adjacent shop. Food is delicious as already noticed.More

They have outstanding lahamjian(afganni/lamb meat pies). Chicken pies, meat pies, Zatar and other ethnic specialties. You need to closely watch them however as they often screw things up and either leave items out or just give you something else. I would not eat in as...it does appear a good dining experience as it is noisy and crowded. But the food is good and fair priced. The gruff counter people apparently line their regulars although. They seem to sell plenty to others. Open early and closed late open seven daysMore

We visited Karam for dinner and it was nice experience in Brooklyn. Space is very small but food is excellent in taste. Grill platter, Flaffals, Shiwarmas, and very hot and spicy sides are very delicious.

One of the best Mediterranean food I have ever had. You would love this place if you get water in your mouth when you hear words like, Shawarma, Hummas, Roasted chicken, Taboli, kuta, Kibbey and so on. This place is super busy always have very...limited sitting ( almost no sitting) best if you carry out . Good portion and tasty food.More

I discovered Karam many ago and every time I’m visit this neighborhood I always end up buying a few shawarma sandwiches that are simply mouthwatering. Their "Kebbe" also very tasty, as well as their great variety of salads. Prices are very reasonable.

This is the kind of food all the street vendors in Manhattan TRY to serve, but can't. When you have that hungry place in your stomach while out shopping on 86th street, turn the corner and stop in for a falafel or (even better) a...chicken shawarma. Few tables, so you might not find a place to sit, but the food is absolutely worth it!More
