If you’re in Bayonne and craving flavor, Gypsy Grill Halal is the spot. Egyptian-owned and award-winning, it’s the kind of place that locals swear by — and once you visit, you’ll get why. Their Story
Egyptian cuisine goes back over 5,000 years to the time of the pharaohs. The pyramid builders lived on onions, garlic, coarse bread, and beer. While beer has mostly disappeared from the table, those other essentials remain — now joined by tomatoes, okra, eggplant, favas, lentils, pasta, and rice.Meat has always been used sparingly in Egypt, with dairy and farmer-style cheeses playing a bigger role. Even today, dishes like stuffed pigeon remain favorites. At Gypsy Grill, these ancient traditions inspire the menu, bringing authentic Egyptian flavors into a modern, comforting dining experience.

Why You’ll Love It

Unique dishes: Don’t miss the Hawawshi — baked pita stuffed with lamb and beef — plus falafel, spinach-feta rolls, grape leaves, and creamy dips for variety.
Sweet endings: Their baklava and grandma’s rice pudding seal the deal with comfort and nostalgia.
