By far the best of its kind in New Paltz, and in fact, the entire area. Just try their chicken or beef schwarma on a sandwich or with bulgar. Always fresh, tasty, great value for your money.

The waitress was very helpful in helping me what I can pick from being vegan and on a Lyme Disease diet. The food and atmosphere was enjoyable.

Very fast food, well prepared. Take out available. Large portions. Baklava not runny or gooey. Friendly staff. Clean place. Choices of sides with sandwiches: fries, soup, salad (no iceberg lettuce; it's mixed greens). Small table seating inside. Credit cards accepted.

Excellent vegan menu. You may have to request it as it’s a separate menu entirely with over a dozen options (!!!). We had a veggie burger like no other- it’s house-made and so authentically flavorful, complete with all the toppings and a crisp salad. We also had 2 platters of finger foods and dips for our warm pita which we enjoyed; actually we were so happy with the creaminess of the hummus that required no animal products! I wanted to request the recipe!! Maybe I’ll just have to go back...

I work locally and on a regular basis we try to order lunch from this restaurant with no success. Either they don’t answer the phone or they aren’t open. This is very inconvenient due to the food being good and usually the whole office is in on the order. I would like a more consistent schedule of when they are open sometimes it says 11 sometimes 11:30 and sometimes they aren’t open at all. Communication is not a plus at this restaurant!!

When I was a teen I used to come all the way up from Putnam County just to eat the delicious Cuisine at Moonlight Cafe back in the 80's. They still have the best Falafel of all time in my opinion . The quality of their food is as fine today as yesterday. The recipes origin are from Egypt and the owners carefully adhere to the traditional recipes and spicing when preparing the cuisine. You can enjoy the buffet and taste many of the fine dishes Moonlight Cafe has to offer.

This unassuming Mediterranean restaurant offers casual fare at reasonable prices.I ordered a falafel wrap on my recent visit, which proved to be fresh and delicious.The service, however, leaves a lot to be desired. From what I could tell there were only two, or maybe three people working, with only one server to cover a half-dozen tables.This arrangement might work during off hours, but during peak dinner time it was less than efficient.While trying to make the best out of a bad situation, my server neglected to bring me basic condiments after several requests, and my attempts to get more water went unanswered. Based upon this experience, I feel like moonlight Cafe would greatly benefit from hiring an additional server so that customers may enjoy the food for what it is.

Not so happy with this experience. We came in, ordered and paid. 30 minutes later, after half a dozen others came and went, we finally got our food. Major complaints were styrofoam containers, unwanted plastic utensils and a plastic bag. No mask, no gloves, either. The two stars are for the food, which was quite tasty.

Good food. Good service. Clean restroom. It's surprising to find middle eastern cuisine in a small town upstate New York, but it's certainly a good addition to variety of cuisines one can find there.

We just ordered from here for dinner first time ever eating their food. I have had plenty of gyros and hummus and falafel before. Which was amazing . But tonight I don’t know what was wrong with the food. We got a hummus with pita appetizer, we also had 2 falafel pitas and a gyro and a beef shawarma.... the hummus tasted like it had something burnt in it. As well as the sauce on the falafel and the shawarma . The gyro was amazing I think it’s something with the tahini that was bad. The French fries and the gyro were amazing. But every thing else we got was just not good due to the tahini sauce they used: I’m so upset I was looking forward to enjoying this food but now I need to go eat something else as we were unable to enjoy it . So sad

Best Middle Eastern food around, hands down. I have had Sharwama in numerous Middle Eastern countries, and cities around the world and theirs is still my favorite. Recommend to anyone looking for a good meal that is not like what you will get in most places.
