  1. So glad I discovered this place.

    Great selection of freshly prepared homemade foods. Flavors range from Moroccan and French, to some borderline Italian. Lots to choose from… and it's ALL good. The BBQ Pulled Pork is one of my favorites.

    The coffee is excellent. They also offer espressos and lattes which are as well. My favorite thing to get here are the smoothies and juices. The "Superfood" smoothie is my favorite. Tastes like green apple, but there is a bunch of healthy stuff in it.  🙂

    There is a nice selection of imported olives and olive oils for purchase, as well as some olive spreads.

    Parking can be a pain. This street is the biggest ticket-trap I've ever seen,  as nearly half of the meters are non-functional and the cops drive up and down and issue tickets non-stop. The city must make literally thousands of dollars per day from this street alone.

  2. I've been eating at places in Rockaway for longer than I can remember, and Claudette's is by far the best option. Yes, better than the tacos. Everything is ridiculously fresh, she runs everything herself, and has family staffing the place. They also have coffee and juice bars, as well as good stuff to grab and take to the beach or on the train. All around great option.

  3. Lovely family run place right next to the beach.

    All the food is homemade by the mother of the family in the back, and her very sweet sons serve it up in the front.

    Vegan and vegetarian friendly with a fully stocked juice bar.

    There are lots of homemade takeaway options.
