Last time I was there on a Friday night we had a reservation but every table was booked. My recommendation is the steak. Any steak. I've had the ribeye and the strip steak, both exceptional. I took half the ribeye home and it was just as good the next day. I should have taken half the strip steak home but it was so good I ate the whole thing (but my stomach regretted it later). French fries are also outstanding. Drinks are very good. Desserts are standouts too. I like the chocolate mousse and the creme brulee cheesecake. Service has been really great as well. Very friendly and professional. Top notch, in my book. Only downside is that when it is packed, it is super loud, esp if you have a table of folks who are pounding the drinks.

Update: We went back almost immediately because we couldn't stop talking about the first meal, and…read moresomehow it was every bit as amazing. The lamb shank was absurdly tender, the baba ganoush was smoky and rich, and yes, the ezme, beets, and pita remain mandatory ordering. But what really sets this place apart is the heart behind it. On a hard night for our family, a simple unexpected dessert brought genuine comfort and a smile when we needed it most. They don't just feed your stomach here. They feed your soul. I would go to war for this restaurant. An absolute gem, genuinely some of the best food I've had in the area!! I don't write glowing reviews lightly, but this place absolutely earned one. From the moment the food hit the table, it was obvious this was something special. Every single thing we ordered, from the mezze sampler to the drinks to dessert, felt like the best version of itself it could possibly be. Not one weak note. Even the pita bread was memorable. Warm, soft, fresh, lightly charred, and worthy of praise in a meal FULL of standout dishes. The mezze sampler was EXTRAORDINARY. The beet and goat cheese was one of those bites that makes you stop mid-conversation. The goat cheese was fresh, creamy, rich, and perfectly balanced by roasted beets that were unbelievably sweet and luscious. Honestly, they were almost candy-like. I don't know what they did to prepare them, but they were incredible. The spicy vegetable dip, Esme, was bright, vibrant, and bursting with flavor. Fresh, zippy, and balanced with just enough heat. The eggplant dip was equally impressive, with a silky texture, subtle tartness, mellow tomato notes, and that gentle pleasant bitterness that makes eggplant so satisfying when it's done well. The hummus was ridiculously creamy and rich with tahini, giving it a deep nutty flavor that made it one of the best hummus dishes I've personally had. We also ordered the Turkish manti, and they were fantastic. Little handmade parcels topped with cool yogurt and warm spiced oil that brought everything together beautifully. We didn't even manage to take a picture because by that point we were so completely absorbed in the meal that all manners disappeared and we just devoured them immediately. No photo. No pause. Just instinct. That might be the strongest endorsement I can give. The mint lemonade was perfect for a warm day. Bright, refreshing, tart, cooling, and mint-forward without being overly sweet. It tasted clean, balanced, and incredibly refreshing. Dessert completely sealed the deal. The Turkish revani was unbelievably soft, soaked through with milk, and had that luscious almost tres leches quality that makes every bite melt away. The fresh berries and raspberry sauce gave it just enough brightness and acidity to balance the sweetness beautifully. I had a cup of black tea with it, and the combination of cake, berries, and tea was one of those simple little moments that feels kind of magical. The restaurant itself is beautiful. Tasteful decor, warm atmosphere, and thoughtful design that feels welcoming without trying too hard. The service was friendly, attentive, and genuine. More than anything, the whole place feels like a labor of love. What blows my mind most is that this restaurant has apparently been here for over two years, and we somehow only just discovered it. We were legitimately mad at ourselves thinking about how many meals we could have had here already. Now we're just trying to make up for lost time!! For roughly $80 for two before tip, the value was outstanding. At first glance, the menu might look a little upscale, but once the food arrives, it makes perfect sense. The quality more than justifies the price. I've had good Mediterranean food before. This is operating on a completely different level. Without question, this is some of the best Mediterranean food I've had anywhere in the area, and I can't wait to go back.

We went for dinner at 6 pm on a Saturday, we thought we were the only ones there, again because of the empty parking lot. There were a few people already seated. We didn't have any reservations, and I thought - Why would we? We started with the appetizers, babaganoush and calamari. Both were good. My wife and I had the mixed platter for two. All the meats were tasty, seasoned well and weren't dry. For dessert, I tried the affogato, espresso over ice cream and that hit the spot. Overall, we were impressed. People did start coming in after 6 so it's best to reserve a table especially if you have more than 4 in your party. The don't serve liquor so it's BYOB!! For some, that might be the important thing to note .

The mini market is a random mixture of middle eastern food. Right behind the cash register is a menu of middle eastern food, such as sandwiches, plates or other food - typical chicken over rice, falafel, gyro, etc. I had the chicken over rice and falafel. It comes with rice, lettuce, onions and tomato. The box looks small but it is a lot of food and they give you a lot of chicken. It tasted very good and flavorful. Prices are reasonable. No seating inside. Parking lot on the side. I went here purely due to yelp reviews and it was a good find!

It's easy to miss Almadinah if you're not purposefully looking for it - it has somewhat of an inconspicuous exterior that blends with its surrounding businesses. The interior tells a different story - they have a small selection of Middle Eastern groceries, and a menu of hot food to take out. It wasn't crowded when I arrived, but there is a good amount of space so that even if there are a few people shopping and ordering it's not overwhelming. I was here for their hot menu, so I drew my attention towards that; the selection is similar to other Middle Eastern and Halal spots I've been to: chicken, beef, and lamb over rice or in a wrap, falafel, baba ghanoush, and a selection of apps. I decided to get the chicken and rice, the dish came with lettuce as well and I had it topped with white and hot sauce. The dish was great - fresh, warm, and full of flavor. They didn't skimp on any of the components, and all the flavors worked really well together. The dish also included some pita which was a nice touch. Service was fast and friendly, and overall I had a great experience at Almadinah. I'll be honest, I had low expectations of this place since my experiences at eateries in Northern Westchester have been mixed, but they really exceeded my expectations and provided a delicious lunch. I would have no qualms returning if I'm in the area again.

For my main dish, I ordered the linguine loaded with clams, mussels, shrimp, and even a lobster tail, all served in a slightly toned-down fra diavolo sauce. Every bite was fresh and flavorful. My wife had the pan-seared branzino, made specially gluten-free, and it was perfectly done. What impressed us most is that every dish is made to order and served hot -- nothing feels pre-made here.
