    In a city that has food trucks on every street... this is hands down the best one. I was told that if you are on Madison Ave, this is a must and I 100% agree. At lunchtime there's a long line but you can order ahead and pick up. If you aren't in a time crunch, go after 2. 62nd & Madison is in the heart of some of the city's best shopping and businesses, so you will see all types of people lined up to eat some of the best Mediterranean food around. It's so close to the park, you can walk over, grab a bench and have lunch outside on a nice day. Only open until 6:00 on weekdays and 5 on Saturday, plan your stop accordingly. Chicken Pita was fabulous! Tons of flavor. The warm pita was just crispy enough to hold the generous amount of fresh chicken, tomatoes, and onions with one of the best Tzatziki sauces on top. Mediterranean Chicken Pita is also stuffed with delicious grilled chicken breast, lettuce, tomato, onion, and adds olives, feta and a nice vinaigrette on top. Portions are big, but don't be surprised if you finish the whole thing because every bite is so good, you wont want to stop. Plenty of choices on the menu, if you haven't been, you must ty this.

    This is hands down the best food cart. I have tried numerous food carts. Tony's dragon grille is one the best I have tried. No wonder there is always a long line for the order. On weekday at around 1pm. I saw more than 10 teams ahead of me. Took about 20 minutes to order and 10 minutes to recieved the order. If you go during their peak time, be prepared to wait a while. Parking around there is not convinient. All the adjacent roads are for commercial parking only until 7pm. If you drive, you might have some hard time finding a parking. The ticket polices are very active in this neighborhood. (I got a ticket). I ordered 3 bowls, steak and chicken bowl, pork soulvaki and grilles shrimp greek salad. Rice- very flavorful and tasty. Rich in herb. soft. Portion is a lot. Meats- used to be bigger in portion.. Chicken- well cooked. Mix of dark and white meats. Very tender. Goes well with the white sauce. Steak- it was little dry without the sauce, but great with white sauce. Kind of lean meat. Seasoned well Veggie- very fresh. Loved greek salad with bit of citrus taste. Shrimp- nothing too special. Very tender Make sure to ask for the lemon sauce! Goes well with any meat

    Baby roach next to lettuce

    Found a baby ROACH at the bottom of my rice bowl. And you know what that means? That means I didn't make this horrific discovery until *after* I made my way through all the food. That's right, I found this after I ate everything. To make matters worse I shared that bowl with my partner, who had never had Tony's before. Ironically we were even talking about how good the food was when suddenly I went still over the discovery. As if all of this wasn't enough, my experience in picking up the food was lackluster as well. I had ordered ahead for pickup since I came during the lunch hour on a weekday, and had a meeting to attend when I got back to work. In spite of this my order came out after my coworkers', who had stood in line. I didn't end up getting to eat the food since I got back to work when my meeting began, which was the whole reason I ended up sharing it later in the evening with my partner. Came here three times, never coming back again. I don't care how much we all know that NYC is crawling with roaches and rats - I should never see one in my food.

    There's tomatoes stuffed in my chicken, lettuce wrap, and I'm allergic.

    This place is great for lunch or dinner however, they do not listen. I come here on my break to get a chicken wrap with lettuce and onions. Every single time I have to head back to the location to return my meal due to the fact that they always place tomatoes and I'm allergic. I believe this is unacceptable because I specifically tell them I'm allergic and it seems like they don't care. I totally get it. I'm black on Madison Avenue where Tony dragon grille and his team are more attentive towards white customers. It's sad because I spent $15-$20 every day to get bullshit service. Listen, it is what it is for now on when I purchase I'm going to open chicken lettuce wrap in front of them. I don't want no surprises, especially if I'm allergic! Please do better!

    Headed over here on a Saturday afternoon for lunch in the neighborhood. Surprisingly open despite it not being the usual work crowd, with no line in front of the truck to order. Plenty of options to choose from here regarding meats, platters, sandwiches, salads, and the like. Settled on the Pork Souvlaki Pita ($9) and a Snapple ($2); ready within several minutes of placing the order. Pita is warm and soft, but toasted outside in order to keep firm over all the ingredients. Inside is a generous amount of chunky pork, tomatoes, and onions smothered in tzatziki sauce. Meat is really juicy and the tzatziki is enough to balance out the pita without being too soggy. Only complaint is that the spice level is lacking, so wish I had ordered a sauce as well (believe this is extra). Perfect place to grab a meal on the way to the park.

My husband and I shared the pepper dip and the baked cheese appetizers, which come with freshly baked bread. Seriously delicious. For entrees, I got the tava kosi, which is an egg dish with two pieces of lamb. Honestly I didn't love it. It's a LOT of egg. The lamb pieces were delicious, but I was already so full that I could only have one piece. I wish it had a bit less egg and a bit more other things, but I know this is their national dish. My husband got the qofte shari. It was perfect. Cooked so well, the meat was spiced uniquely, even the fries were great. I think I just ordered the wrong thing! I would seriously love to return and try another clay dish. We finished off the meal with Albanian coffee, which was like Turkish coffee, but smoother and better. All in all, left so happy and full. Service was so attentive, too. Go here for a unique meal in the cutest little restaurant.

The staff was extremely warm, kind and welcoming and a special shoutout to Irem who was amazing, gave us some great recommendations and took care of us throughout. I went for the $39 prix fixe brunch which is honestly such a great deal and comes with quite a spread. I had the muhammara, hummus, shakshuka and dessert and thoroughly enjoyed my coffee too. We also ordered the tuna Niçoise salad, which is by far the best I have had ever. One of my friends was accidentally served the wrong order and they immediately replaced it with the right one and made her meal completely complimentary, which was such a nice gesture and something we really appreciated. We also loved that nobody was rushing us and we could just sit, chat and enjoy our brunch. Great food, beautiful ambiance, wonderful hospitality and even the restrooms were spotless and very well maintained. Overall such a positive experience and easily a 5/5 for me.

We were lead upstairs to a table. There were 7 of us The seating was cozy but not cramped. We started with 7 family style small dishes: Hummus with Falafel Pops (chickpea purée, tahini, falafel, olive oil), Spring Burrata (roasted cherry tomatoes, toast, basil oil), Hamachi Crudo (passionfruit vinaigrette, citrus zest, cucumber, mint, sesame tuile), Scallops (carrot puree, serrano pepper, brown butter sauce), Tenderloin Skewer (zaatar chimichurri, fresh herb salad), and Shiitake Stuffed Grape Leaves (tomato coulis, yogurt foam, herbs). Everything was delicious. The hummus was well seasoned the falafel had a nice crunch. It went well with the warm puffy gyro bread that came to the table. The burrata was wasm and creamy. I love the vinaigrette on the fish. I ended up eating most of it. The scallops were the sweetest, most tender ones I have ever had. The tenderloin skewers were tender and well seasoned. I liked the grape leaves but the rice consistency was very soft almost mushy and you can barely tell there were mushrooms. There was barely any mushrooms flavor. Next we all chose an entree. I got the duck breast, my husband and daughter each had the beef tenderloin. The duck breast was smaller than i expected. The skin was nicely seared and very crispy but boy did it give my jaw a workout. It was done medium rare. It was juicy but tough. The small beef tenderloin was tender and smoky. The waiter poured the sauce over the tenderloin for added flavor. Finally dessert was a fruit plate with ice cream and pudding. The fruit was fresh and the flavors of the ice cream and pudding unique. It was a nice end to a good brunch. The price was a little expensive at $85 a person.

They also gave our group free baklava at the end I think just because they felt a little bad they had to rush us, which wasn't even their fault and was super appreciated. Also, the interior decoration is fantastic. The restaurant feels super classy and elegant. Great vibes for a date, a business dinner, or just a fancy dinner. Overall, easy 5 stars. Great food and amazing service. Oh and the wine was delicious too.
