Ayat has quickly become one of my favorite neighborhood spots; It only opened a few months ago, and it’s already packed most days, but it’s 100% worth it. Come hungry because the portions are generous! So far I’ve had the grilled halloumi & watermelon salad, Fattat Lahma Platter, Pizzawarma, and the shawarma sandwich, and every single dish has been amazing. The kibbeh are an absolute must! I order them every time. And don’t skip the mocktails! The Hibiscus Margarita and the Limonana are both S

My husband and I came to New York for a few days on vacation, and during our trip we ended up visiting this restaurant three times because we absolutely loved it! Every meal was delicious, and we tried a variety of dishes—everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. We honestly couldn’t find a single thing we didn’t enjoy. The restaurant is very cozy, beautiful, and has such a welcoming atmosphere. A special thank you to our waitress, Daria, who was incredibly kind, friendly, and

Guy at the counter was nice. Place seemed clean. Gotta be the worst beef kofta I've ever had though -- texture of rubber, smelled like shrimp, taste was not very good or specifically beefy. Rice also tasted a bit odd. I didn't try a burger or shawarma, who knows, could be better 🤷

I came here on a Saturday 11 am peak time on mother's day weekend and it was amazing! We were seated immediately and our server was so nice! The atmosphere was also great I could talk it wasn't loud or crowded inside and our food came quickly! I got the jacks breakfast and it was immaculate the skirt steak was cooked amazingly so tender and the eggs were scrambled so we'll! We also paired with the duck bacon witch had a rich and smokey flavor but not dry it kept the juicyness of the fat! All aro

I had a wonderful lunch and thoroughly enjoyed the $59 Wagyu lunch set. I chose the Wagyu Meat Sushi, the 7oz Wagyu Filet Mignon, and the San Sebastián Cheesecake following Claudio’s recommendation. Every course was beautifully executed and absolutely delicious. The tasteful music also added to the enjoyable atmosphere. What made the experience truly memorable, however, was the exceptional service from Claudio. His warm hospitality and genuine attentiveness stood out throughout the meal. He reg

I’ve been coming here since they opened back in 2012. Great place for breakfast! I also love love their dessert. 🍮 🍨 really good variety. Lava cake is one of my favorites.

Loved the food here (and attentive service to boot). The middle eastern spices made the food so delicious. The dips were so creamy and tasty on the Frena (or any of their breads). The chicken wings were our favourite. Can’t fault the crispy squash blossoms, Adana (lamb & beef) on tzatziki & baby artichokes. The small (2) selection of desserts were also good. Overall a great dining experience. Will be trying their other sister restaurants.

LOVE IT HERE! The vibes were immaculate. Our server Heaven was literally that, a slice of Heaven! She was amazing, she gave us great recommendations for our first time here. She was very attentive and made sure everything was good for us. The food was pretty good, the drinks were fire, and the hookah was always a vibe. I feel like we got everything we needed out of this place. 10/10 would highly recommend and will be back. Ask for Heaven!

Had a great experience at Au Za’atar in East Village—the food and overall vibe were just amazing. We started with the hummus with sautéed mushrooms and pine nuts, and it was honestly one of the best hummus dishes I’ve had—rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. Also tried the sumac fries, which were super addictive—perfectly crispy and lightly tangy from the sumac, with a nice fresh touch from the parsley. The shish tawook was cooked just right—juicy, well-marinated with lemon and herbs, and

The place is ok. We placed a big order and the food was ok. Some of the grill chicken was actually over cooked and a bit burnt. The portions are ok. The place is not set up for dinning in as there are no settings or tables. You have to order out. The good part is that they have a dedicated parking area on the side of the store which is a bless in this area. Overall, compared to other similar fast food places this is just on the ok not the great side. The staff consists of friendly young adults o

The Halal Guys is one of the most iconic food stories in New York City, and that legacy is real and earned. What started as a humble cart at 53rd Street and Sixth Avenue in the early 1990s built a following so devoted that it eventually grew into a national franchise -- and the food that made them famous is still recognizable in every bowl and platter they serve. The signature white sauce remains the star: creamy, tangy, and completely their own. The chicken and beef gyro platters over seasoned

The funny thing is that I hadn't even realized that this building had been renamed! I still think of it as The Time Warner Center! At any rate, it's still great. I didn't notice any other changes besides the name. It's a fun and cheerful mall and looks very festive at this time of year. You should go!!

TLDR: I haven't even eaten there but wow was it good. Definitely will be returning, the baba ghanoush and both the lamb leg/stews were insane. Had this delivery at a friend's place and wow - everything was so tasty. Each order comes with this huge toasty pita that's perfect to mop up the sauces and plates. The baba ghanoush was the first thing I tried and I loved the texture. Not overly whipped or too smokey. Kinda of like rice pudding without the grains, that's just how it felt as I dragged t

Wonderful Afghan meal, will definitely be back! We visited Zaitoon Kitchen yesterday with the family and had a fantastic experience. The staff was incredibly sweet and welcoming. They even gave us a complimentary mocktail on the house – such a nice touch! The food was delicious and portions were generous. We tried the kofta and the grilled tikka, both served with perfectly cooked brown rice, caramelised carrots, and raisins– absolutely delicious. The salad was refreshing, and the baklava was a

I had an outstanding experience at this Mediterranean-inspired restaurant. We ordered several mezze to share, and honestly, they were probably the best I’ve ever had. Everything was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and perfectly executed. The bread alone was amazing. The service was impressively fast — we were served in under ten minutes — without ever feeling rushed. We started with wine, then had coffee, and I finished with a cocktail, which was excellent as well. Every part of the experience flo

The falafel is legendary, and it lives up to it — perfectly prepared. I'm honestly not sure how they pull it off. Most places like this give you burnt edges and an uneven interior, but every piece here was flawless. You can tell they've been doing this a long time. We got the McDougal and the West 4th sandwiches. Tastewise they're pretty interchangeable, but that's no complaint — both are stuffed with huge portions of well-prepared lamb, sliced into thin strips that are perfect for eating out o

I had the mixed feteer and it was amazing. The portion size was huge and definitely more than enough to share. It came out perfectly crispy on the outside while still being soft and flavorful on the inside. Every bite tasted fresh and well made, and the mix of ingredients worked really well together. Overall, it was delicious and definitely something I would order again. BRING ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY HERE!!!!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love this establishment! The staff is friendly, welcoming, and provides wonderful service from start to finish. The food is always freshly prepared, delicious, and served in a clean, sanitary environment. The shish kebab was especially outstanding—perfectly cooked, flavorful, and clearly made with quality ingredients. You can tell they take pride in both their food and customer experience. Highly recommend Memo Shish Kebab to anyone looking for great food and great people!

I’ve tried this place three times now and I just don’t like it. I know Mamdani loves and I and I like almost all his favorite places but this just doesn’t do it for me. I’ve had the chicken adana laffa, sausage laffa, mixed shwarma pita, and eggplant. The laffa sandwiches are definitely better than the pita sandwiches. Still, the flavors just don’t really do it for me. The spice mix on the chicken and sausage is off putting; the shwarma meat is a little burned; the sandwiches are all way too ove

We had a wonderful dining experience at Ravagh Persian Grill. We ordered the Barg Kabob, Chicken Sultani Kabob, Babaganoosh, Persian Ice Cream, and a Persian Martini. The food was absolutely delicious. The beef kabob was tender, juicy, and full of flavor, while the chicken was perfectly grilled and incredibly tasty. The rice deserves special mention – soft, fluffy, and light as clouds, exactly how authentic Persian rice should be. The service was fast, professional, and attentive throughout th

I had the Eggs Benedict and it was absolutely delicious. My friend ordered a halloumi dish, which was also very good. The mimosa was excellent as well, and the prices were reasonable for the quality of the food and overall experience. The only issue was that although we had a reservation for three people, we were seated at a table for two because our third guest had not arrived yet. I don’t think that was the right approach and it felt a bit disappointing. Other than that, everything was great.

This was such a beautiful evening we had a group of 17 people and 3 kids and the service was so good , friendly everything so tasty and delicious ! People should go and check this place out !!!

Wow. Dining at Al-Andalus was an incredible experience. As someone who loves meat, this vegan meal was genuinely one of the best I’ve had in a long time. All 6 dishes we got were perfect, but some standouts were the patatas bravas, mushroom shawarma, and Dubai chocolate tart. Both were so flavorful and truly had me at a loss for words. The atmosphere is so cozy and simply beautiful and the prices were great. The service was top-tier—Adam and Sonia are the best! They were so attentive and friendl

If you are looking for a dining experience that perfectly balances traditional flavors with modern execution, look no further. We had a party on Mother's Day and chose Nargis Cafe. This restaurant is a masterclass in hospitality and authentic cuisine. The Service: What truly elevates this restaurant is the staff. Thank you, Laziz, for your kind smile and pro service! You made us feel welcomed from the moment we walked in, ensuring every detail of our meal was perfect. The Food: The meal started

Truly a hidden gem! One of the best hookahs I’ve had in a long time. I ordered the Love 66 flavor, and it was made perfectly. It lasted a long time and tasted amazing. As someone who really enjoys hookah and knows it can be hard to find a spot that makes it well, this place is it. If they do not have a particular flavor, feel free to tell the hostess or owner and they will make sure to try to have it for next time you come. What really stood out was the hospitality. The staff, especially the own

🌟 Phenomenal Mushroom Pita at Miznon (Chelsea Market) If you are looking for an incredible plant-based bite in Chelsea Market, Miznon is an absolute must-visit. The food, the energy, and the staff make it a standout spot every single time. 🍄 The Star of the Show: The Wild Mushroom Pita I ordered the Wild Mushroom Pita, and it is genuinely so good. What blows me away is the pure simplicity of it—there are no heavy sauces or extra gimmicks piled on top. It doesn’t need them. The mushrooms the

We had such a nice dinner at Chama Mama. It was one of those meals where you order a few things for the table and just enjoy tasting everything. We started with stuffed grape leaves, then had khinkali, the big Georgian dumplings with broth inside, which were really fun and delicious. We also tried two different stews, including one with chicken, and both were rich and comforting. The khachapuri with egg and cheese was probably one of my favorite parts :) the server mixed it at the table, and it

I had a great experience here. The vibes were really nice and the service was excellent, the staff kept checking on us and everything came out quickly. The food was phenomenal. We ordered the lamb kibbeh nayeh, and it was incredibly fresh and flavorful. The grilled cheese was also really good. We tried the grilled quail as well; the quail itself was tasty, though the rice wasn’t my favorite since I prefer the fluffy aromatic Middle Eastern style. One small suggestion: it would be even better if

Assalomu Alaikum everyone! We’ve been in this restaurant today. I just wanna tell you why you have to do ur parties here is because the atmosphere and service. Service is best( can’t complain about) Atmosphere also nice! Especially Aziz aka and Sister are best duo singers ever in New York🔥 Come and see with ur eyes for real! You will love it👏🏻

We ate here around 9pm on a Friday night. It wasn’t packed, however the live music had groups of couples on the dance floor! First of all, loved the atmosphere. It’s like you just entered Uzbekistan! The walls were beautifully decorated. I loved the silverware and donkey on the table…the only thing I would say is get rid of the paper napkin holders & replace with cloth napkins to match the table settings. The staff were friendly & treated us well. We started with their old style pizza. Then I t

I loved this place. First of all it was super clean. That’s a big sign for me. The portion was amazing. I had to divide my order in two to eat it within two days. Tasty, warm food with white and red sauces. Literally there nothing better to eat. You have your rice, your choice of protein (I chose lamb) and of course the salad. Highly recommended !!

Firstly, this place is amazing. Me and my friend were hungry after school and we wanted to try somewhere new so we went here. We got 30 piece tenders because we wanted to spend our money and boy, did we get our moneys worth. Firstly, the server was amazing. His name was Nino and he made the atmosphere great. He let us get the food 15% off because we were students and that was great. Now, I can’t stress this enough, this place is great value. We spent ~$55 and got 30 tenders, 2 seasoned fries, 13

My friends and I came in for lunch last week and we had a ton of great food while in Astoria, but this was hands down the best place we had eaten at all week. The hummus was insane and our food portions were so generous. The staff were incredibly kind, patient, and helpful. I’m sitting about 5 days out from this meal and I am still thinking about it. Can’t wait to go back to Queens just to eat at this place again!

Overall my experience at Sami’s Kabab House was good, but could have been better. The food was good, I ordered the salad, mantu , and family style plate with kofta, chicken, and lamb chops. Everything was great, but the chicken was a little dry. The kofta and lamb chops were flavorful and juicy. All the sauces are also great and enhance the food well. The server took a long time to get to us though and also we had been finished eating for about 10-15 minutes before our plates were taken out of t

This place is a vibe. Happy Hour is a must! Great music.Angie was great hostess. Green tea shots, mojitos are top tier

Wow, what an amazing establishment in Astoria Queens. The food was out of this world best falafel I’ve ever had. I could eat 10 of them by themselves. I ordered the beef Shawarma and the kebab sandwich. Just absolutely spectacular and the pickled onions were superb. I highly recommend anyone and everyone to come to this establishment. The service was out of this world I believe it took us about less than 10 minutes to get our food from the time we ordered it. They weren’t too busy, so maybe t

I really loved the atmosphere and the food. Everything was so good that I completely forgot to take pictures. It was also a pretty exciting day for me. Next time I go, I’ll definitely share some photos too. Turkish food is simply the best cuisine in the world.

One of the best bang for your buck eats out there in NYC. The veg platter comes with 3 falafel balls so we added 2 adding to make it 9 balls total, got sauces on side and extra pita bread to make it a full meal for 2 people all under $20. The platter comes with enough hummus, baba ganoush, tahini and salad to make atleast 3 full pita sandwiches on your own. Quick service, helpful staff that give you water when needed and more sauce if needed as well. Downside? Food here doesn’t look pretty. T

Came here for lunch with friend and wow, this place is now on my regular list lol Right by Central Park The Mezze Platter is the move. Hummus, Ezme, Patlıcan Salatası, Haydari, Fava, all served with warm Pide bread. We were fighting over the last bites lol. 每一口都有惊喜。 I had the Lamb Shank and it literally fell off the bone. The broth soaked into the rice was so good. Honestly reminded me of my mom’s 红烧 braise. 入口即化。 We also got the Chicken Sauté, super tender and flavorful, great to share alongsid

Amazing spot. Stopped by with a friend to get some work done, eat and watch the game. Our server Mo was unbelievable. He even flipped out seats to get a better view of the projector for the Knicks game. The chicken Kabab was delicious too. Highly recommend and will definitely be back in the future.

I’ll be very clear, I was not checking for Living Room Lounge at all. I’m 40 plus, I like my hookah smooth, and I’m not into overly loud, chaotic environments. They open at 11am daily which I love because I am a afternoon hangout kinda person and want to be home rubbing my feet together on the late night! After reading reviews and trying Red Oak Restaurant & Lounge, I decided to give it a shot and I’ve been five times in two weeks. That alone should tell you everything. It’s a vibe. A real one

We really enjoyed both the food and the atmosphere at this restaurant. It offers a wonderful sense of Yemeni culture and tradition while you dine. The bread is exceptionally fresh, the soup is rich and flavorful, and the salad is well prepared. The rice and meat dishes are cooked perfectly, and the meat tastes fresh and high quality. The customer service is also excellent. However, the prices are a bit on the higher side. We were able to find street parking nearby.

This place was pretty good to eat at. I came inside and already felt the vibe of a typical Bengali restaurant. There was a large menu in the back of the register with a Long Island table for multiple orders to come through. The freezer on the right side providing drinks such as laza, yogurt, sparkling water, etc. The kitchen in the back with the constantly working staff with steam all up in the air you can see while you’re eating your meal which took about 10 minutes to come. The waiter himself

Excellent and tasty food, reasonable prices. Their hummus is a must try - a very unique and flavorful approach to a classic Middle Eastern staple. I had the grilled sea bream, a small side of hummus and chocolate mousse. All delicious.

Overall Impression: A high-energy hookah lounge with a nightlife feel, made more enjoyable by standout staff—especially Bella. Atmosphere: The venue has a club-style ambiance with dim lighting and upbeat music. It gets lively and crowded at night, making it ideal for groups but less suited for quiet conversations. Hookah Quality: Hookah performance is reliable with a wide flavor selection. Sessions last well, though consistency may vary during peak hours. Service (Bella Highlight): Service ca

The food is amazing: the fresh bread, the well marinated lamb kabob, rice and salad. I enjoyed everything I had that day. Will have to leave room for dessert next time, but I’m sure it is just as good. Friendly service, and it wasn’t a fancy restaurant but more homey and I loved it and will definitely go again.

We ordered for take out and the wrap is huge. Definitely worth $12.99. Generous amount of meat. The chicken gyro kebab small plate $15.99 was also a decent amount, which comes with white sauce, hot sauce and a side of bread- which was delicious. Great turkish spot! If you dine in- they have a small parking lot, not to be confused with the Wendy’s parting lot.

Some of the best Turkish cuisine in New York City! Staff is very attentive & accommodating. The food is so perfect & delicious. We got mix gyro plate, chicken adhana kabab, grape leaves & some phyllo dough stuffed with fresh mozzarella. We then took even more food to go. Everyone should try Truva at least once.

A beautiful and very peaceful Turkish restaurant. The food has an authentic Turkish flavor that makes you feel as if you are in Turkey, with the lovely decor, music, and delicious dishes, all in the heart of New York. The service was excellent and highly professional. The food was delicious, the portions were generous, and the restaurant was exceptionally clean. They also have a very nice outdoor seating area. A special thanks to Oyku and Cem for their outstanding hospitality and professional
