Naya might be one of the few places worth (most bang for your buck) getting at the Brookfield Place food court if you went there to eat. They give you a good decent sized portion and comes with pita bread. I believe the price was about $12-15. Service is fine, but it can be loud and they might not hear you when giving your order. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance is casual as there are seats nearby to enjoy your meal[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Forgot to take pictures but you can find them at the very end of the food hall. read more

NAYA - Location of place - Mediterranean Near Me - New York, New York

Naya delivers solid food for decent prices. The new menu items like the roasted lemon chicken and pomegranate tahini keep the selection interesting. Service at this location is usually fast and on time for online orders, though an influx of tours can sometimes cause delays or mistakes to happen as they do get overwhelmed a bit with long lines and times orders. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Seating at Brookfield food court is thankfully ample though one might need to wait for a table a little while.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Really enjoyed this place. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This location is in beautiful Brookfield place with a bunch of other eateries on the did court level.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Order your protein, base and then as many toppings as you'd like. Ordered chicken shawarma with rice and a variety of toppings. Everything was fresh and tasty, except for the falafel which was gritty and dry. Serving size was huge. A win for lunch in NYC that didn't cost an arm and a leg. read more

Ordered delivery, good quantity 10/10 for the price, taste was good 7/10 as well (little too salty) and their pita was not fresh but still a good place to get quick food on the go. read more

Overall the food is solid and brings a lot of interesting elements. Only downsides are that it's a tad expensive for what you get and sometimes the wait is really long. Definitely give it a try! read more

If you're going to eat in the Food Court adjacent to the Winter Garden, NAYA's Lebanese customizable bowls are a great option. My reco would be choosing the Kafta Lamb Kebab, as I did, (also containing beef) with its tasty combination of fresh herbs and spices. Given how flavorful it was, I'd order that again! Along with that, I enjoyed my selected seasonal greens and grains, hummus, baba ghannouj, toum garlic whip, pickled turnips, Lebanese pickles, cucumbers, olives, feta, sumac onions, and lemon tahini dressing. The bowl also came with a small pita bread. The meal definitely was better than something from The Halal Guys, albeit pricier. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The Food Court's seating area has a great view of the marina, Hudson River's final mile before New York Bay, and the Jersey City waterfront.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] All that being said, there are other relatively nearby downtown eating options, e.g., in Chinatown, that may provide more bang for the buck than NAYA. read more

An employee lied about not having any more of an item just because he was lazy and didn't want to go to the back to get it. Really lame. But also just terrible customer service. I asked the cashier for the item and she went to the back to retrieve it. NAYA, do better. read more

paid 18 dollars for a bowl with little chicken. I have the photos. they are very stingy with food.

I ate here and really enjoyed my food. I had the chicken kebab. The chicken was cooked nicely. The veggies were fresh. The service was quick. [[HIGHLIGHT]]My only critique was that there is not enough seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

"Bang for your buck" might not be a phrase uttered often at the Brookfield Place food hall, but you will be saying it when talking about Middle Eastern NAYA! It's a popular option; sometimes the line can be daunting so visiting at a less busy time is the way to go. But the courteous employees are efficient and get you through swiftly. The best part of NAYA is how you can get all the toppings your food-fancying heart desires, from spreads like hummus and baba ghannouj to veggies like sumac onions and Lebanese pickles. They aren't stingy with the meats and grains either. The chicken shawarma is my current favorite, with the bowl costing $14.14, what a steal! read more

I work in the Financial District and get Naya everyday from the one in Brookfield. The people couldn't be nicer and the food is always so fresh. read more

I just LOVE the food at Naya. The portions are pretty great and the food tastes delicious. The chicken is very tasty and the sauces are so good! I usually get the brown rice, chicken, lettuce, feta cheese and pretty much all the sauces. The staff is friendly and professional. I truly recommend this place if you visit Hudson Eats. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]A great build your own meditation spot that's like an elevated Cava.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I enjoyed the beef shawarma bowl and the meat had a very flavor unique taste that I really enjoyed. The rice was also very tender and flavorful and they had quality toppings they didn't skimp on. I got a side of falafel and I really like the slight crunchy texture it had and of course also great flavor. Was a good spot that I didn't have to feel guilty about. read more

When it comes to lunch places this is one of the most affordable places in the financial district, and you definitely get your money's worth. It's insane how cheap the bowls are compared to lunches in this area especially considering that you're getting protein as well (around $13). If you download the app and order through there you can get rewards which could ultimately get you a free bowl (which is awesome)! The food itself is great tasting, and you get amazing portions of what you ask for. However, if you have allergies beware! There are MANY times where I would receive my salad and it would have chunks of things I did not choose (e.g tomatoes , pickles). Thankfully I chose not to include these out of preference and not allergies, but the lack of awareness for cross contamination is concerning for those that have allergies. Also, every single time I order a salad ahead of time and ask for dressing they never place the dressing with the salad for pickup and I have to literally go to the front counter to ask someone for dressing. Sometimes I don't look into the bag and end up at work disappointed with no dressing, because I don't want to hit a trip back. Another thing to keep in mind, is that this NAYA gets busy. When I order on the app I usually order 20 minutes in advance and still end up waiting to pickup my food. You can also wait on line if you don't use the app but it's always CRAZY long around lunch time (12-2) Mondays - Fridays. read more

Consistent execution of their food! Trying to stay on the lighter side of options NAYA never fails to hit the flavor meets balanced meal. We have been getting NAYA bowl delivered recently and the quality has not gone down which is surprising as it often does for other chains. Everything tastes so fresh and I make sure to get the pita with the meal. Just perfect to sopping up the final bites of sauce and dip! read more

Got the falafel bowl today with the usual toppings, thoroughly unimpressed. I know people love their falafel but I wasn't feeling it at all. Felt unpleasantly hard on the outside and dry on the inside.! Their pita was still as good as ever and service was friendly, fast, and efficient. As far as ambience, the view is still very sweet and eating over a field of tulips is a dream. read more

The girls here are very nice. There is one guy that started working there that is quite rude. Wanted to upcharge me for asking for a little more rice (sorry I don't like pita). Normally good service but I'll be turning back every time I see that guy there. I would have made up for any "upcharge" with a generous tip, as I normally tip now there's the option to, but for a few grains of rice they lost tip and a regular customer. Stingy for no reason and bad customer service. read more

Food is very good here if you want middle eastern food. It's one of those chain restaurants where you grab and go. You can pick any sides and mains. They have a variety of mains and I usually pick the brown rice. Unlimited sides which is what's so good about this place. Service is fast and quick! They give you a free naan with your meal. Another good thing about this is they are very generous with their portions. They always fill it to the top! It's a must! read more

NAYA - Mediterranean Near Me - New York, New York

Walked to Hudson Eats for a quick dinner takeout and decided on NAYA. I've had NAYA around Midtown before and remembered it to be quite good. There was no wait around 4:30pm. Half rice/salad and half chicken/beef shawarma (4/5): The bowl consisted of a good amount of food along with a piece of complimentary pita for $14. I liked the chicken shawarma better than the beef one. Salad and all the toppings tasted fresh. Maybe I'm a teeny bit biased, but if I'm ranking based on cohesiveness of flavors, I think Cava might be up there in terms of overall taste. Regardless, still an enjoyable meal. read more

Subtracted a star because the line had to be the longest in the food court. But good things are worth waiting for and Naya did not disappoint! And you know it's a good thing if the line is long. Unlimited toppings is a big bonus! So my bowl turned out like I wanted it to. Delicious! read more

Naya is the chipotle of meditterean food. The falafel was delicious with a crunchy exterior and flavorful inside that isn't overally spiced. The chicken was on the dryer side. The hummus is silky and a nice starter. I really liked the parsley salad that accompanies the meal. Could eat a tub of that. Can't go wrong with Naya. read more

We found it on Yelp, and it had a 5* rating. That piqued my interest. At first I thought it was an independent venue. It took us a while to find it. It was actually part of a food court on the 2nd floor in Brookfield Place. We both ordered the same dish: 3*Kafta lamb kebab bowl: Decent & healthy cheap eats. The 5* rating must be reviewed by friends; it was good, but nothing fancy. I would go back, but not go out of my way. read more

I can say with incredible confidence that I am NAYA's biggest fan. It has actually never been bad. In fact, it shocks me every time how good it is. Falafel and cauliflower is always exactly what you need it to be and more. All the ingredients are so fresh - in the way that Cava gets kinda soggy and weird, NAYA remains fully in tact and delightful. read more

I wasn't going to write a review so fast, but these burps are pushing me to! I kid you not, I ate this for lunch and hours later, I am still burping this. Naya has been on my radar ever since I saw it as a popular spot in Hudson Eats. If it's your first time, definitely order from the app to save $5 off your first order. Pick ups are towards the back by the windows. I had requested the Spicy Green sauce to be on the side on the app, and they kindly obliged! My Naya Bowl (originally $16) consisted of Chicken Shawarma, with extra Falafel, and they really went ham on the "extra". I got a whopping 5 balls. Maybe that was why I was STUFFED by the end of it. But portions aside, the bowl is a Middle Eastern Chipotle, with shared ingredients like tomatoes and lettuce. But the sauces are the key prominence here. Sauces and dips like Hummus, Lemon Tahini, and Toum Garlic Whip coat the other ingredients to become a party in your mouth. The Onion-Parsley Sumac Mix was also a great addition to the usual Lettuce Tomato stack. The Pita bread was also soft and easy to tear apart! You can basically skip dinner after eating this. I am so so grateful for their generous helpings, though I'd note to self to just stick to one protein next time. If you're looking for a value meal that's flavorful, delicious, and filling, Naya is that fast convenient option! read more

Super delicious & healthy lunch! I recently tried Naya for the first time and absolutely loved the chicken shawarma salad. All toppings are yummy - definitely recommend adding the hummus, tzatziki, and green sauce! I also appreciate the addition of fresh jalapenos, which lends a nice spicy kick here and there. The pita is super soft and a MUST with the order! Highly recommend ordering ahead (either through the app or website) as Brookfield lines can get LONG during lunch. Even then, the line at Naya moves relatively quickly. Order ahead maybe an hour in advance - the time slots fill up fast! read more

I loveee naya! Vermicelli rice is always so good along with the chicken and all the toppings!

The fact that my review was taken seriously by the mgmt and they did reach out to discuss further, is a testament to their dedication to provide consistently good customer experience. In my reviews I pay a lot of emphasis on customer service and this goes a long way for me. Hoping they are able to plan and resource for the weekday rush hours. read more

If you're going on a lunch break for work, this is a pretty good nearby option! The food seems relatively more nutritious than other options and tastes good. They offer standard quality Mediterranean bowls. I recommend the Chicken Shawarma over the Shish Taouk, its a bit more flavorful and they give you a little more meat! Service is alright depending on the time of day you go. In terms of ambiance, this business is in the Brookfield Place food hall, so it's pretty standard, you do get a view of New Jersey with some of the seating. read more

Naya is my new go to lunch when I have to go into the office. I get the chicken shawarma platter which is amazing! The chicken is so tender and flavorful, yum! I always get the hummus and baba ghanoush on the platter with tzatziki and the green sauce. I haven't tried anything else here but may try their falafels one day read more

I got a wrap from NAYA for a snack/late lunch. It was pretty good. They employees were really nice and friendly. There was no line when I went in the afternoon, and I also remember it was weird that there was no option to tip. There are plenty of really good food options in the mall so I'm not sure I would come back though. read more

It was my first time ordering from this place. I was hungry so I finished everything in that bowl. It was pretty good. The picking process of what I wanted was quite simple. Since it was my first time there I had some questions about the difference between the different meats. The person behind the counter was nice and explain to me what each stuff was. I would come back to eat if I wanted a quick bite. There is seating around so that's a plus. read more

There is usually a ridiculous line for this spot during lunch hours, so that tends to steer me away. I just happened to have taken my lunch break around 4PM and there wasn't a single soul in line, so I took that opportunity to try this spot out. NAYA is also a Chipotle style concept, where you pick your base, protein, and ending with an array of toppings. The server was very welcoming and kind enough to walk me through the menu as I explained to them it was my first visit and did not know what to expect. I got a NAYA bowl with Freekeh as my base, Chicken Shawarma ($13.50) as my protein, and then a bunch of random toppings the server suggested. I also got a piece of pita bread, which appeared fresh as the plastic bag it came in was steamy. Overall I enjoyed my meal. Definitely a nice change to Just Salad or Chipotle. I can see why there's a crazy line during lunchtime in front of this place. read more

healthy & saucy vibes!! a good meal that will leave your body feeling energized, full, & refreshed. (like chipotle) you can choose what goes in your bowl. I got the salad which was pretty fresh & the toppings were all cold. comes with a prepackaged pita which is SO SOFT, CLOUD-LIKE, I'd love to meet the chef. the grilled chicken protein option gives you 6 big pieces of meat, which didn't seem like a lot but those pieces hold more weight than they seem!! read more

I work in Brookfield and this is my goto lunch option when i crave something healthy and tasty. I generally get their bowls. Falafel, cauliflower, chicken all are delish.
