Excellent falafel bowl with salad: the falafel are freshly made and the consistency is a perfect mix of crunchy on the outside, and soft (but still a bit chunky) on the inside. Lots of options for veggies in the bowl, babaganoush and hummus as a standard on the bowl, and the tahini is super super delicious. Maybe the best falafel on UWS!
Best food and best people. The cook and the older gentleman taking our order love their jobs and really took care of us. Both the chicken and beef shawarma were cooked to perfection, with the right amount of juiciness and charred flavor. Even the bread was great. The man taking our order was very welcoming and hospitable. Perfect neighborhood halal spot.
Iโve been looking for a Bereket replacement for two decades now. Still looking.
This is the only option for middle eastern style shawarma/ kofta kebob sandwiches in the hood. The average to poor, halal trucks donโt count.
The sandwiches are decent. The chicken is always way too dry and flavorless, can you say under seasoned ? Stick with beef and lamb, and alway get it spicy (3.5/5 level of heat).
The star of this spot is the falafel. Itโs superior on multiple levels. 4/5. The tahini it comes with is water downed and lacks flavor, ask for garlic sauce, aka toum. Youโre welcome.
Little $$$ for what you get but itโs all we got so thereโs that.
The falafel here is just so good - unbelievably moist and flavorful and perfectly fried. Definitely my new go to in the neighborhood. Don't sleep on the pickled veggies.
I ordered lunch at this restaurant on Too Good to Go and thought it would surprise me, but I didn't know it was a disappointment! The food is scarce, the taste is mediocre, and the vegetables are not too fresh. Considering that I have had a bad experience ordering on Too Good to Go several times, I have decided to delete this app and no longer use it
