Ordering via kiosk is quick and easy. Loved the fresh and tasty bowl, especially with their standout sauces. The warmed pita bread is a nice touch. Great seating options both inside and out!

I love good food and taim never disappoints! The food is always freshly prepared and the flavors are always on point. I love the Chicken Shawarma over hummus and super greens and look forward to the dish each week. The service is great as well and whether it’s Zyair, Briana or anyone else on their team, you’re sure to feel welcomed. This place is worth the visit!

I thought this was place was really good, and honestly I was doing my best to not compare it to CAVA, def a bit on the pricey side but it is also in Princeton. Food was good! The whipped garlic and the fries were awesome. The person working the front was unbelievably cheerful which was nice. I’d come back again.

It’s delicious, tasteful, the right price, and a lot of vegetarian options. I also love the music and the location is also nice. They have a rewards that accumulate and you can get free food items when you buy. I have to redeem mine to get a free pita bread..

Every time, Taïm has come through! The ingredients are fresh, especially the vegetables, and the meat is well-seasoned (but not salty). I get the bowl every time. I think the price is fair for the quantity (especially here in Princeton ).

I usually review places after a few visits but my first visit here was a one and done. The customer service was almost non-existent and the food was awful. Upon entering, not one employee greeted me. After standing behind a couple, I realized that I had to place my order on the kiosk. The young lady with a black and white doily looking scarf on her head didn’t bother greeting customers. When customers engaged her she seemed irritated. One guy came in who clearly looked like he had questions and was waiting for someone to take his order, no one said anything to him. He stood there for a few minutes before he walked out. The young lady never looked up to acknowledge him or ask him if he needed help. It wasn’t clear that orders need to be entered on the ONE kiosk, no signage, no verbal communication, nothing. Had someone who wasn’t technologically savvy walked in, they would have been confused. The fries were greasy, limp, and flavorless. It was a glob of greasy fries stuffed into a container. On top of that, if you choose the option for both sauces, there is an additional $1.25 charge… for a tiny container of sauce! They were probably the worst fries I’ve had. Even after getting home and draining the grease, putting them in the oven, draining them again, they still were terrible. The falafel was okay. You receive eight miniature balls of falafel that in my opinion are not worth the price. I was interested in trying other items but after the experience I had, I have no plans of patronizing this business again. Had it not been for the young man with the braids who provided GREAT customer service, by being pleasant and making eye contact, the one star would have been too much. The young man with the braids should probably be up front dealing with customers instead of being behind the counter prepping the food, and the young lady with the black and white scarf should probably not be the person who is the most visible. Maybe she was having an off day, which we all have; it was just off-putting. I hope the owners take this and use it as an opportunity to train staff on customer service and serving quality food.

This was a real treat. I’ve somehow gone my entire life without tasting baba ghanoush, it was excellent. I had a pita sandwich with chicken shawarma, marinated tomatoes, cucumber, babaganoush, tzatziki, olives, feta and avocado, and tahini sauce. It was absolutely one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. I haven’t been back to Harrison St. in several years and it’s very cool to see a new great restaurant. I was really blown away, it was my birthday dinner and it was awesome. It was so so good and I’ll definitely be back probably too often.

It is like a Chipotle for Mediterranean food. I had the greek salad with chicken shawarma. It was just OK. The highlight was the gentleman who brought the food outside to the table. He had a big smile and made sure to call the name outside. This allowed you to sit outside at a table to wait while the food was being prepared.

Ordered delivery, so I’ve never been to this location. Pitas are excellent w/ fresh ingredients and strong enough not to fall apart, which is a pet peeve.
