Great place tucked in the corner of the building. Food and service are always wonderful. Very authentic and there is something for everyone. Enjoy!

The food is great. I recommend trying the crabcakes or the calamari. For appetizers. The chicken Dijon is highly recommended . dinners are prepared to order. Don't be in a rush. Sit back and relax.

I don't know how Garlic Lovers slipped off our radar for years, but my wife and I returned for dinner this evening and enjoyed it immensely. The owner was gracious & welcoming, service was excellent, and the food was amazing. The dolmas are the best I've had, and our entrees were beautifully prepared - generous portions full of great flavors and textures. We just left and are already looking forward to going back,

Met cousins here for lunch. She had the lamb kebab, which is apparently her favorite thing on the menu and she's had it before. Another cuz had the bedouin chicken on pita, w feta and hummus; I had the same. My husband had the falafel on pita. That was 3 falafel balls over a bit of greens on a flat pita rather than a sandwich. You have a choice of side, either a salad or fries. 2 of us had the salad, nice portion of basically mesclun, with a cucumber dressing which you can have on the salad or on the side. Two of us had the caloric splurge, lol, and those were some really crispy fries! Three of us had driven up from NJ to see the gal we met at the restaurant. If I'm in this neck of the woods again, I'd come back. If you're upstate, near Albany, give it a try!

I was gifted a gift certificate here and the restaurant is always empty when we've ordered takeout. That being said, the food is decent! And the owner and waitstaff are friendly. We will continue to order when our gift certificate runs out!

Delicious -- seriously delicious -- Mediterranean food prepared with care and attention and genuine hospitality in a casual, pleasant interior. Casual restaurant setting clean though a bit cavernous at lunch hours I want to shout to the masses eating at 1-2 star fast food places dotting route 4: Drive a couple miles north to Defreestville and eat well! I appreciate places that pay careful attention to food, even if casual. Also ordering from the owner meant I could ask to have a salad instead of fries. Of course, here are your choices of dressing including cucumber mint (!)

I've been here a few times over the years but it's been a while. I came tonight with my mom and we were blown away. We shared the Mediterranean plate appetizer and the vegetable curry for dinner. The falafel was perfect. Nicely seasoned and crispy. The vegetable curry was delicious. Not too spicy, just right. Even the house made cucumber salad was so good. We were shocked there weren't more people dining. Also the waitress was great. Attentive and pleasant, never too much.

Love the atmosphere quiet, cozy and personable .. The Hummus platter is to die for fresh and delicious ! Salad is fresh and plentiful and our dinner was amazing . Worth a try if you want something different. Not cheap but worth it .

One of the top meals of my life! I used to LOVE this place and had lunch there often. Then came Covid (which means "mess up your life" in Latin) which forced me to stop for over 2 years. I dined there last Tuesday June 28 with my wife and son. The place was really empty (only one other couple was there) and the owner took great care of us. I am a big fan of a good red wine and was concerned that if business was really slow, any wine sold by the glass might be a little corked. So I asked the owner for the freshest Cab or Merlot he had opened most recently, explaining my concern. He opened a new bottle of J Lohr just for me (it was great - I had 2 glasses). We shared a Med Plate for an app and it was as spectacular as I remember. The pita tasted fresh out of the oven (or off the grill or however the heck you make pita - I don't know) and the hummus, baba ghanoush, and tzatziki were fabulous. The falafel was the best I have ever had (it always is) and I have had falafel in Tel Aviv several times. So yeah... don't go to Israel for falafel, go to North Greenbush! My wife had the garlic shrimp florentine and my son had the moroccan chicken stew. Both were fabulous. I asked them to make a gyro pita for me (from the lunch menu, not available on the dinner menu), which they did. The meat was delectable, veggies were fresh, and it had a healthy smattering of that same to-die-for tzatziki. We tried all three of their desserts and argued about whose was best. The chocolate bomba won for best presentation (thus the photo). And both my wife and son took home leftover portions from their dinners which made a delicious lunch the next day. Service was at the right pace, always attentive, and always accurate. The bill was reasonable (in post Covid and Putin inflation scale). Everything was really perfect. We couldn't think of any way to improve it, even in a minor way. REALLY PERFECT. Hopefully they can find staff to open for lunch again soon.

Garlic Lovers Corner makes great tasting food. I was a bit disappointed that the online menu didn't accurately reflect the prices (for take out), August 2020, but overall I was satisfied with great tasting food and plentiful portions on the entrees. Definitely order the Mediterranean appetizer - but also get extra pita! The Seafood diablo was delicious and filling and this place makes great go
