I had a brilliant experience with Over the Cuse, great food, great service, great communication, great staff, over all 10/10. Mike is absolutely wonderful he catered my team’s senior night and the food was delicious!!! Three large trays and this small container was all that’s left. Highly recommend supporting this local business.

Nice casual spot with a customer service. Kinda noisy b/c they're calling out orders and the place is small so don't knock it. Had the Otto smash burger with house sauce on the side. Sauce was way better than usual "big mac sauce" but burger was perfect without it. Also offered free sample of Halal chicken over rice which was definitely tasty.

The staff here are friendly and courteous. The female staff person that helped me order was brillant and her great attitude was infectious. She treated everyone that came through the door with the same energy that no one is a stranger there.

Great late-night spot! The halal chicken over rice was flavorful and hit the spot. Quick service, nice portions, and easy takeout. Perfect after a long day. Will definitely be back!

Our first time here & it won’t be our last! I ordered the Halal chicken , my husband a chopped cheese & my son a smash burger. We ordered a side of Mac & cheese to try as the menu was overwhelming. The food was fresh, and very very good. The roll held up very well for the chopped cheese & was very fresh. The Halal chicken- it’s a #1 seller for a reason! That garlic sauce is fire. Everyone was coming & going with to go orders and this place was a well oiled machine. Very very clean. The glass on all the cases & coolers sparkled & I saw a girl behind the line cleaning & wiping down everything as she was working. Very friendly, hardworking staff and the best part is they were busy & everyone did their thing!

We were greeted with smiles and great customer service! That’s important for us ❤️ we got three meals just to try different things. It was all so good!! Lamb over rice 10/10 Cheesesteak 10/10 Chicken sandwich 8/10 was missing a sauce or something to add some extra flavor but the crunch and meat to bun ratio was perfect. HUGE dessert menu too!

Such a great place! Where do I begin?!? The food is outstanding! Everything made fresh! Halal chicken, omg😳🧐🥳🥳🥳We were offered a sample. It was a best seller. I know why! It's so flavorful! Best rice I've ever had in my life. Super friendly staff. They know how to get that food out, fast and looking fabulous! 😋 We watched them while we ate. Everyone organized, clean, and working together. I'm a restaurant snob and I have nothing bad to say about this hip place. Definitely coming back. 2 meals and 2 drinks $38 with tip. Super reasonable. Took half home. The dessert selection, huge omg! We didn't get any but will get dessert first next time! Any kind of drink you could want, they have a whole wall of them! Huge portions! Live an hour away, but would make the drive to go back and try more things on the menu. Highly recommend this place!!! Will be back every time im in Cuse! A+

We came in on Christmas Eve to celebrate my brothers birthday, we were super excited that one of his favorite spots was open after we all got out of work. The food was so good and the staff was so kind, they checked in to make sure we had everything we needed and even offered us a sample of a new item! The entire restaurant was so clean and well stocked, the employees were all super professional and efficient with all of the orders, the playlist they had was super fun and had lots of familiar favorites! We can’t wait to come back again soon!

Phenomenal food! Each time we visit Syracuse we make a point to go here. The service is incredibly kind and they keep the place super clean. We take our three small children and they love the food too. The rice and lamb and rice and chicken are our favorites. They also have burgers and these wraps that I really want to try but my goodness the rice dishes are so good I always get them. Their desserts are delicious too. We get the cookies for the kids and my favorite dessert is the chocolate, strawberry and pistachio cup. The food is so fresh, rich and tasty. I highly recommend this place.
