Hummus Kitchen
Victoria N.

My boyfriend and I came and we got the Mezze Trio and a Shawarma Wrap. The waitress was really nice and took great care of us. The hot apple cider was amazing. We tired it both with and without wine. I also love the little leaves in the vases.

Valentine's dinner that really didn't hit as well as it should've. All my food looked tasty but it wasn't quite the flavor that I'd expect. Sometimes hummus has that bitter aftertaste. Not all restaurants have that but this is sadly one of them. Like Mamoun's Falafel. I got the hummus kitchen plate with four different hummus (chicken, beef, garbanzo beans, and plain) but it all tasted fine. Could use more oil I think. The beef was my favorite. The senya shakshuka was creamy and good but again could've used more flavor. The French bread was just ok. We got the cauliflower appetizer and that also had a bitter taste. A little burnt taste it felt like. The service was exceptional. They were super friendly. They threw in fries for us (which were my favorite dish of the meal). Super salty, flavor, and hot. They even gave us a complimentary shot but we don't drink. Very thoughtful.

Shawarma Platter
John-Carlo B.

Went to Hummus Kitchen on the Upper East Side with my cousin and mom; had a really nice time. I ordered the chicken shawarma on pita and a Mosquito cocktail during happy hour. The food was fresh and filling, and the half priced cocktails were a great deal. Service was quick, the staff were friendly, and the atmosphere felt relaxed and comfortable. Definitely a spot I'd come back to.

Salmon lunch special.
Dona F.

Small kosher Israeli spot with a few tables outdoors if you choose. Salmon lunch special was perfect . Salmon was cooked as requested (rare) with creamy humus , rice and delicious assortment of grilled veggies. I had the mazze trio (pick 3) - babaganoush, Israeli salad and grape leaves which were a bit different than I'm used to. These had meat and were sprinkled with pomegranate seeds. Very good and tasty. Side of pita. A small on the house desert tasted like vanilla soft serve - also delicious. Friendly service. They have a few locations around NYC. I'd go back!

seni'ya tacos
Carol S.

I went for dinner and ordered the charred eggplant, falafel taco, and seni'ya taco. Overall, the food was okay, but not worth the Google ratings hype. I also didn't think that the price matched what was served for the charred eggplant ($17) -- it was mostly a ton of tahini poured over a small charred eggplant and about 6 pita chips spread throughout the dish. I thought the tahini was overpowering and the 6 countable pita chips too few to eat the eggplant; especially if the pita chips are supposed to be the vessel to carry the eggplant. You get two "tacos" per order. They are like two small pita pockets. The falafel looked dry, whereas the seni-ya (ground beef and lamb) was flavorful. The space is small/ intimate and the service is okay. They bring you small ipads to look at the menu.

Chickpea Hummus and Pita
Patrick Z.

I got the Chicken Kabob Platter for dinner which was kinda standard. The chicken I felt like didn't have that classic Mediterranean Kabob flavor and texture to it, but it was fine. I liked the red sauce that came with it. The rice on the other hand was amazing and very fragrant. I absolutely loooooved the Hummus here. It was so light and smooth and generally balanced with a little tang to it, and the chickpeas were very soft. The pita was great as well and dipped well in the hummus yummmm I just need to get one of the larger hummus dishes next time.

Shakshuka Brunch, French Toast Brunch (recommend both!)
Michelle C.

Pretty good brunch deal for $22, includes entree and small appetizer. We shared the shakshuka which had a great flavor, slightly spicy, and the French toast with halva, fruit, date honey was delicious. Service was nice but my only complaint was the restaurant is pretty cold inside (in winter).

Salmon lunch special; $22
Meredith R.

Strange to write an update less than a week after my initial review. Our first visit was for dinner. Today's was lunch with a friend. A number of restaurants generate business with lunch specials. Hummus Kitchen is no different. Check out my photo; you choose a main which comes with hummus, salad, rice and pita, served together on a segmented plate. My friend and I each ordered salmon. I was a little concerned cause I prefer mine medium rare and she does not. "It'll come out overcooked," I thought to myself. But NO! Both orders of salmon were prepared as requested, and simply delicious. Hummus is creamier and infinitely better than the packaged kind most of us are familiar with. The salad was great, grilled vegetables and beets a good touch. The rice .... well, not everything's a winner. I like this little restaurant, and will most assuredly return.

Hummus platter

I've been here like 12 times for the lunch special and it never disappoints. This place serves the absolute best Mediterranean food in the UES. You'll be so happy you came. Especially after the dessert.

Red Mediterranean chicken
Austin K.

Got new things coming back here, still my favorite hummus place - Mediterranean chicken: this came with the freya bread and so tender. The sauce said that it was spicy, but didn't think that was the case. It was much more tomato based than I expected, similar to shakshuka - The shakshuka senya was still good, and came with a bread I didn't recognize. Not my favorite but certainly the portion size was Plentiful for everything.

Shawarma Pita Taco (Beef taco) w/ Mazze Mediterranean Chopped salad & hummus
Rakema V.

I told u I been really enjoying trying different hummus. I try the falafel flat bread with hummus on the side and pita bread. I know carbs but it's delicious. I order online so I didn't get to visit the franchise but my food was package welled. Everything portion correctly. Overall 8/10

Chocolate mousse

We ordered a hummus, schnitzel, and Mediterranean salad. All came out quickly and was delicious! Our server was attentive and the chill music made it a fun experience. We finished the meal with a chocolate mousse slice that was decadent.

Is there a time limit for the unlimited drinks for brunch? For instance, is it the typical 1.5 or 2-hour deal, or does it end when entrees have been finished?

No time limit! It's amazing!

The quality and taste of the soy sauce was better than average. The salmon and tuna tacos were made exceptionally well, with super fresh raw salmon and raw tuna, and extra crispy taco shells. The nikkei acevichado sauce blends beautifully with the avocado, lime, pickled radish, and cilantro. This entire combination complemented the raw fish, and brought it to the next level. I had a glass of the drappier carte d'or from the sparkling wine list and it paired perfectly. The drink was light, very sparkly, and refreshing. It balanced the rich avocado and the fatty fish very well. The restaurant has a bar area and a main dining area. It has the ambiance of a standard upscale Midtown restaurant.

We started with mushroom and truffle empanadas and then had the sushi rolls - everything was fresh and delicious. One downside was the condition of the ladies room - to put it nicely it was disgusting. My sister changed her mind about using it after going inside. Other than that I would recommend giving them a try.

Cocktails are a little heavy on the sweetness, but the food is delicious and dessert is insane. Never had key lime pie like that in my life. Pro tip - would go duck breast over duck confit, although both were fantastic. The rack of lamb was also divine. Only criticism is that service could use some improvement, a few of our appetizers were incorrect & we felt rushed to leave at the end. But otherwise no notes, would highly recommend that anyone check this place out.

Passed hors d'oeuvres included beef carpaccio, ahi tuna tostadas, short rib gnocchi, and patatas bravas. For dinner, we were given a choice of three appetizers: roasted caufliower, lamb riblets, or brussel sprouts with lamb bacon; a choice of four entrees: duck confit risotto, ora king salmon with coconut curry, tournedos au poivre, or cote do boeuf. The three dessert options were apple streudel, affogato "al caffe", and key lime pie. I ordered brussel sprouts, duck, and key lime pie, and Eric R. got lamb riblets, ora king salmon, and apple streudel. I think he regretted offering me a lamb riblet because it was ridiculously tender and melted in my mouth. What is truly amazing is this is a meat restaurant, so the ice cream, risotto, gnocchi, and other dishes that we think of as dairy-based were non-dairy, and still completely amazing! It was definitely the fanciest kosher restaurant I have even been to in my life. The restaurant was so packed that we could not hear most of the speeches, which were given into a microphone attached to a small speaker near the bride's and groom's family's table. I do not fault the restaurant for its popularity though! The menu is really fun so I think it would be cool to return here for a special occasion. It is also located in midtown Manhattan which is very convenient for transportation. B'teavon!
