I started with the saffron shrimp, had the lamb shank for my main and ended it with the warm brownie for dessert. I also tried their torshitini cocktail which was on the savory side but very delicious. Saffron shrimp was great and I loved the bread to help finish up the sauce. My lamb shank fell off the bone which is always a positive. While I did like it I didn't feel it stood out for me. The brownie at the end was great and helped close the meal nicely. Overall it was a great experience, the service was excellent and it was a fun and lively dinner spot

They've been around for decades, and were renowned for their falafel sandwiches. Fast forward to 2026, and sadly, the Mamoun's I used to love no longer exists. Same location but now terrible falafels! Just awful!! My Falafel sandwich was made with what seemed like a hard supermarket pita pocket, loaded with a ridiculous amount of iceburge lettuce, with 3 half falafel balls which I could barely see or taste. It only cost $6.50 but you're basically paying for a lettuce pita sandwich! I wish I had remembered to take a photo to show you all, but I was so distracted & disturbed by my lettuce sandwich, that I forgot! What a disappointment.

Their shawarma is honestly some of the best I've had in NYC--juicy, well-seasoned, and wrapped or plated in a way that feels very satisfying without being greasy or heavy. What makes the place even better is the variety on the menu. You're not limited to just wraps; there's a good mix of platters and rice-based dishes too, which makes it easy to go back and try something different each time. The biryani is a pleasant surprise--fragrant, well-spiced, and not overly oily--and the kofta with rice is especially good, really tender and flavorful with a nice balance of spices. Overall, it's a solid go-to for consistently tasty, authentic comfort food.

This is officially my new go to spot and I'm going to be telling everyone about it. I got there right at our reservation time, but the uptown trains had completely stopped and my friend had to walk all the way from Canal St to the East Village. It took her about 30 minutes to get there (), but the staff were so kind about it. They never made me feel uncomfortable or pressured to order while I waited, which I really appreciated. I did end up ordering a couple things so there would be food on the table when she arrived. We got the za'atar fries and the falafel with tahini and pita. Delishhhh For our mains, my friend got the chicken kebab which looked fantastic, and I got the veggie couscous bowl. It was unbelievable. It tasted exactly like the couscous my mom and safta made when I was growing up, even down to the broth being served with it. Eating it honestly made me feel like I was six years old again. This was one of my favorite meals as a kid and I haven't had it like that in so long, so I was so happy to find a place that does it this well. The vegetables were perfect with zucchini, butternut squash, cauliflower, and chickpeas, and I loved the addition of raisins and onions. Everything was also really reasonably priced for what you get. The energy in the restaurant was great and I loved that they have hooks for coats so you're not crammed at the table with jackets and bags. Overall just such a fantastic experience. This is easily my new favorite restaurant in the city and I cannot wait to come back.

Getting a Cable without a reservation can be a long wait so, I highly recommend making a reservation. So many dishes that I love.

The schnitzel has great flavor and it's not greasy. The eggplant (matbucha) so yummy. The hummus, the real deal, flavorful and seasoned just right. Falafel with tahini - Great falafel and delicious tahini. Perogies - So good with the sautéed onions. Yum! I look forward to coming back again and again.

The bowl of what I guess was Greek salad was tasty. The bartender who waited on me did a good job. My stomach rumbled a lot for 8 hours after too. So all in all I'm not sure I'll return.
