" My experience at The Korner was quite mixed. While I absolutely loved the shawarma, it was flavorful and moist, the service didn't match the food quality—my order took longer than expected, and I encountered some communication issues. They were polite but seemed overwhelmed. The atmosphere also felt a bit too casual for my liking. That said, I'll return for the food alone and hope for a smoother experience next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Not overly fancy, but that’s what I love about The Korner. It feels like a local hangout where you can enjoy delicious food without pretension. The shawarma was delectable, and the prices are very fair. I will be returning soon with friends to try more of their offerings. Fantastic find in Brooklyn! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing great things about The Korner, I decided to check it out, and I'm so glad I did! The food was just as amazing as everyone raved about—the flavors were authentic, and I genuinely felt like I was enjoying a home-cooked meal. The falafel was some of the best I've ever had. The staff was friendly, but the atmosphere was a bit plain—clean but could use some character. However, the food made up for it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sensational! I couldn’t believe how good their shawarma was! I went there on a whim, and it turned out to be one of my best dining experiences to date. The staff were friendly and the vibe was relaxed. I’ll definitely bring my friends next time and suggest the platter for great value! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a truly wonderful experience at The Korner! I ordered the chicken shawarma and couldn't have been happier with my choice. The portion sizes were generous, and everything was cooked fresh. The staff treated us wonderfully and made excellent recommendations. I’ll be back for sure—I'm already craving that delicious food again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Excellent food! The flavors exploded in my mouth! The shawarma was juicy and tender. I have tried falafel in many places, but this one stood out as being especially crispy and fresh. I was amazed at the generous portions. Service was friendly but could use a bit more speed, as we waited longer than expected. Overall, a great dining experience that I would highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" The Korner never disappoints! I've been a regular for years, and their menu keeps getting better. The new owners have put their own touch, which I really like. The grilled chicken is to die for, and paired with a fresh salad from their bar is perfection. The staff always remembers my name, which feels nice. If you want authentic Israeli food, this is the place to go in Brooklyn! " (*Curated Review*)
