Food was good here! But the ordering was a bit complicated. I ended up just going through the app to select the items I want because theres a limit for the number of toppings you can get. Flavors were all good and bowl was quite filling! This location has seating and which was clean and nice.

The food and customer service is amazing at the 11 Hoyt St location in Bk! Theyre fast at preparing the food too. Trust me, I've been going here for 2 years now and their bowls and Pita sandwiches are the Bomb. My favorite is the OG Falafel Pita sandwich. I also love their fries! They know my face because I order fries almost all the time Definitely come visit this location!

Food : 8/10 I usually get a bowl which consists of green and harissa falafel which is always tasty, turmeric jasmine rice and super greens with toppings(cucumber , tomatoes, almonds, shallots and hummus Service : cashier & supervisor were very thorough. Staff for the most part is friendly and efficient. Def give this spot a try if you enjoy Mediterranean food like I do. Ambiance : always clean, has a bathroom which is only for customers which I enjoy. You can dine in and or take your food to go which I like. You can't sit and just have that alone time with yourself after a long day. They do play music which is a factor if you want peace and quiet you'd best take it to go. Harissa Falafel

My love for Taim has spanned a decade,* so when I found out they were opening up steps from my building, I rejoiced. Then I forgot about it for two months, until I received a coupon in the mail. And what a coupon it was! It got me to walk in the doors of this beautiful new eatery tucked into the new 11 Hoyt development (entrance on Livingston). It's bright, with high ceilings, plenty of seating, and all the high-tech ordering touchscreens you could ask for. (They also take online orders, and I believe have an app as well.) They also have a lovely staff who will also just take your order the old-fashioned way, if you like talking to people. All the other things aside, this new Taim location serves up the same high quality eats I've always loved. I rocked a chicken shawarma bowl, with as many toppings as they'd give me. As expected, their food is all packed with bright, fresh, flavorful ingredients, and it's a lunch I'm going to revisit entirely too often. Happy to have you in the hood, Taim. _____________ *Unfortunately, it is thus far unrequited. They never take me up on my offers of midnight assignations, or exotic holidays together.

I stopped by on a weekend afternoon for a quick bite. I got a chicken Schwarma bowl with the main positives being fresh ingredients, lots of choices and colorful. On the negative side, the chicken was dry. Space was clean. Ordering can be on on app, kiosk or old school with the cashier. This is not a typical dump and go meal place (like chipotle) as all the food is prepared behind the cashier, out of of sight. Seating was aplenty and space was clean. Pricing seemed fair and portions were larger than expected. Bowl allows for 2 bases, 1 protein, 8 toppings and a sauce. Located on Livingston st as part of the 11 Hoyt living residences

I am a longtime CAVA fan, but when it comes to falafel, I have to admit Taim takes the cake. Their red and green falafels are both fantastic options, and so hot and crispy out the fryer. I stopped by on a Thursday evening before my solidcore class (conveniently located next door) for some dinner. Like their other locations, there are two self-order kiosks where you can choose a pita or bowl. There are several tables and the space is quite big and clean so you can choose to sit down and eat or take it home. My food arrived fairly quickly and was brought to me by a staff member. Overall, a solid spot for some Mediterranean in the area!

This place is my actual favorite food in all of New York. Absolutely delicious, and the most helpful and friendly staff in the world. Vinny is the GOAT and will take the best care of you if he's there (if you see him tell him Atlanta girl sent you). An absolute MUST VISIT if you're ever in New York. Literally cannot say enough good things. Very chill vibe and extremely clean.

Dee J.

Awesome service at Taim Easy kiosk ordering station but you can always ask staff questions Hard work staff looks like they work in an organized environment Mint Lemonade taste refreshing Did take out service so will.inform.in food later Clean clean clean Will comeback if the food is good

Have I mentioned I LOVE, repeat, I LOVE, Taim . So when I got a notification that they were opening a new location in Downtown Brooklyn, I made a note to eat their delicious falafel ASAP! I've been to many Taim, yep, was at the grand opening on 7th Avenue in Park Slope via Yelp Elite Event and frequent the Flatiron location. Why? The falafel is to DIE for! You can order harissa falafel or regular falafel or BOTH! You can schwarma it, pita it or place it in a big bowl. End result? Yummmmmmmmmm! They also offer mezze with their delicious Zaatar seasoned pita, crispy cauliflower, eggplant and other delicious Mediterranean fare. I haven't eaten falafel in a while thus today I went all the way... green falafel in a pita with seasoned chickpeas, pickles, beets and crispy shallots and added some whipped garlic. Added to that was their famous fries and refreshing ginger mint lemonade. The new space is next to soon to open 11 Hoyt luxury apartment building. The interior is light, spacious, airy and very warm. The entire staff is professional, kind and very accommodating. My lunch was delicious and I made it a point to communicate to all. I told the staff once the apartment building opens be prepared to make falafel after midnight cuz us Brooklynites LOVVVVE our falafel! This Taim is steps away from Macy's and Citipoint. It will be my lunch destination when I visit Trader Joe's. Taim, Shalom and welcome to Downtown Brooklyn. Please open in Bay Ridge next!

Tiger L.

Love the food! I've been to the other location but I like this one Best so far! The chicken Shawarma is delicious and the fries are great! Also, service is excellent. The two guys working today are super nice and would check up on me to see if there's anything else I need. Want to let management know they have good people working here. I highly recommend this location and the Pitas here! I got the falafel the other day and recommend the harissa falafel. Plus, this place is CLEAN! Definitely check this place out! The Crave Combo gives you a good amount of food for just $10! And if you sign up for the App, you can get a $5 reward to use (which is what I did). Tip: I asked for the hummus on the side instead of in the pita. It's easier to eat it that way so I don't overload the pita. Would like to try the cauliflower shawarma next time!

I tried twice there and both got wrong protein. Last time they missed falafel even if I paid for the addition. This time they missed chicken but added falafel as I added it as side. If you order it, make sure you open it up and check if they put all proteins. My friend also got a falafel bowl without falafel. read more

A cute neighborhood coffee shop. They have good pastries. My favorite is their maple latte. The…read moreflavor is so good. I have been disappointed with their matcha latte's, they are very inconsistent. It's a small narrow space so when it's very busy during the weekend, I feel like a packed sardine waiting for service. Baristas are friendly.

I've given Bittersweet a couple tries, but have left disappointed most times…read more I appreciate that their prices are reasonable, and its proximity to the park, but drinks and food haven't been great. Their espresso drinks are little too acidic/burnt tasting to me and the chai latte is SO watery. It barely has any chai flavor.. not sure if it's because I substituted milk for almond milk? But I don't think that should matter I've also tried their jalapeño cheddar scone which was quite dry. Their sandwiches seem to be popular which I'm still open to try, but I'd definitely skip on the drinks

The workers were sweet and professional - asked me if I had any questions right as I went up to the register and the drinks/food came out in a timely manner. The tables are a little small for 2 people, but great if you're going solo. The wifi worked well. I do also like that they reserve tables "without laptops" which can be more enjoyable for people who want to eat/drink/socialize rather than work. Overall, would revisit!

I came here on a Saturday where it was supposed to be open till 5pm. When I got in and ordered they didnt mention anything about the updated closing time. They kicked out all customers exactly at 3.30pm. Everyone were clueless. I would've gone elsewhere had they just given a head ups. It's not great when you charge me over $10 for a small cup of coffee and then kick me out 1.5hrs before closing time on a chilly day.

People have left some odd reviews of this place, including a one-star review for the restaurant…read moreapparently being highly politicized--a vibe I neither felt nor could visually identify within or without the establishment. I ordered a single burger and a Sudan spiced peanut butter latte, for ~$15! That's pretty inexpensive for New York City. I note this as some consider it overpriced. I suppose the food is fairly inexpensive, the lattes slightly higher than average. The "burger" comes wrapped in a homemade pita with diced cucumber, onion, and tomato, plus a few crispy, thick-cut fries and a yummy house sauce. It was a cool twist of the traditional burger and had a nice flavor. The sauce was like a slightly Mediterranean version of Big Mac sauce. The girl working as the barista and cashier was very nice and friendly. She had a nice presence and warm smile, made suggestions, and even gave a stranger free utensils when they popped on to ask. I think it's definitely worth checking out, and it's a good place for a cheap & simple meal that's still quirky and fun.

Perhaps I should have anticipated that, or my mistake in ordering. I also ordered a Moroccan egg salad sandwich which was substantive but surprisingly bland--sparse with the advertised capers and pickled red onions to give it more punch. I've always loved the look of the spot and the vibe--funky decor, outside and indoor facing counters to order, with some outdoor seating for people watching on Dekalb or heading nearby Ft. Greene Park. I see they are renovating and rebranding a bit and adding some burger component. While I didn't love it, I'd definitely give it another shot.

Taim truly exceeded my expectations in every way possible. From the moment I stepped in, the ambiance was inviting and the staff greeted me warmly, making me feel instantly welcome. The customer service was beyond exceptional - attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about ensuring every guest had a fantastic experience. Now, let's talk about the food. Each dish was a masterpiece, bursting with fresh flavors and crafted with such care that it felt like a culinary journey. The falafel was perfectly crispy on the outside and tender inside, accompanied by the most delicious sauces that complemented every bite. The hummus was smooth and creamy, a true testament to their dedication to quality ingredients. What impressed me the most was their attention to detail. They not only met but exceeded my dietary preferences without compromising on taste or presentation. The recommendations from the staff were spot-on, showcasing their expertise and enthusiasm for their menu. Overall, Taim is more than just a restaurant; it's an experience. It's clear that everyone from the chefs to the servers takes immense pride in what they do, and it reflects in every aspect of the dining experience. I can't wait to return and explore more of their incredible offerings. If you're looking for a place that combines exceptional food with unparalleled customer service, look no further than Taim. read more

I recently had a great experience at Taïm restaurant. The cozy atmosphere and delicious smells made it a special meal. Fady, was friendly and helpful. He guided us through the menu and made our dining experience even better. The falafel was crispy outside and moist inside. The hummus was creamy and flavorful. The shawarma platter with grilled chicken, rice, and salad was delicious. For dessert, the homemade baklava was a delightful treat with layers of crispy pastry and sweet nuts. I want to thank Fady for his excellent service. He made our visit even more enjoyable. Overall, Taïm restaurant offers a fantastic dining experience. The cozy atmosphere and tasty food make it a must-try for anyone who loves Mediterranean cuisine. Thank you, Fady, for making our visit special. read more
