“Awesome food, very authentic. Our server was very friendly and professional. We had a great time. Favorite dishes were baba ghanouj, hummus with meat and the cauliflower steak. Red wine was so good. We sat near a sunny window and there was fairuz music so the atmosphere was perfect for a lebanese.Kid-friendliness: They have high chairs. My toddler liked the food.“

“Not only does Yafa offer really wonderful food + drink, and a lovely interior— the folks who work there are so kind and helpful. I’m a regular and was a big fan already, but today something glitched when I put in my online order and it didn’t go through. Once they looked into it and realized, they offered to cover the same order and pack it up for me to go. Can’t recommend Yafa highly enough. Thank you guys!!“

“Kind responsive staff serving delicious breakfast.“

“Delicious , great service“

“Easily one of my favorite spots for Middle Eastern eats in the city -- every single thing we had here was so delicious. The ambiance was really lovely and the servers are great at recommending dishes. This restaurant is perfect to share dishes family-style. The Labneh here is so special, truly one of my favorite I've eaten. I cannot recommend it enough, am definitely coming back soon.“

“Great service and delicious food. Try chicken vegetables soup it's yummy. Also chicken Mediterranean bowl is our favorite. Decor of the restaurant is also very charming perfect place for a date night. Beer selection is good something to choose for everyone. Highly recommend one of the best places to chill and eat in Williamsburg. You learn a thing or two bout Egypt. ?“

“Amazing food! Great atmosphere and fantastic people.“

“Very small place, yet the flavor is very big. You can have the best hummus and falafel in Brooklyn. The home made bread baked daily on site makes the flavor even more intense.Parking: It’s Bay Ridge, so don’t expect to find parking that fast.“

“I have eaten alot of falafel, shawarma, and other sorts of middle eastern cuisine. This is THE BEST falafel ive had in my life. Literally everything here was great. I had the baklava aswell, it was also the best I've ever had. This is a must visit for anyone in town“

“Drawing its roots in the noble tradition of Yemeni coffee, this coffee house first serves fabulous beverages: especially taste the Sanaani, cardamom coffee ($10 for a pot of sharing coffee), or a classic "pour-over" ( $8 for the large model) to appreciate a beautiful expression coming from high-class Arabica coffee beans, processed with respect for the product. The typical pastries, Khaliat Alnahl and Sabaya, or even the coconut Basboassa are really all very tasty. Delicious !“

“Stopped by Holy Pita for a quick bite before dinner. We ordered a few appetizers including the falafel, sumac fries, Moroccan cigars and wings. The fries were my favorite. Nice and crispy, packed with flavor. The Moroccan cigars were a pleasant surprise. I wasn’t sure what to expect but I trusted the recommendation given by the cashier and happy we gave it a try.“

“I love the food, ambience and service.“

“We were looking for Israeli food for my dad's birthday dinner. We got a table for 8 and were sat in the back room. It was pretty tight in there. While our waiter was nice, the restaurant was super full and I don't think it could handle all the groups of people well. We each ordered drinks and the drinks didn't come out when we got our appetizers. Waited even longer for them. For appetizers, we shared a bunch of dishes. The hummus really is delicious and the warm pita bread is great. We asked for more pita but unfortunately the pita was brought out when we got our main dishes and we no longer needed it. The restaurant forgot my chicken schnitzel dish so I just shared the burger with my husband. They also ran out of fries for the night and it was only 730pm.. the restaurant has lots of potential but needs to figure out a better system for food and service. They were super apologetic and did comp the pita bread and dessert for my dads birthday. The babka dessert is absolutely a delicious chocolate heaven!“

“very good atmosphere, service amazing!“

“Best breakfast i had a long time ago all the plates were amazing, i highly remcimmended the eggs with tomato o cant remeber the name but we almost finished the plate. My kids really enjoy the toast also the big plate with all cheese and honey and olive was amaaaazing, the turkish coffee is greatThe staff are sooooo welcome and helpfull really they explain everything and recommend the best and it was so fast.Thank you for making this breakfast special“

“I love a spot that has consistently good food and you know what you're getting- that's Ayat! I always start with their mezze filistini which is served with their fresh hot outa bread! Their mixed platter for the main course has been a hit with anyone who I have brought here. It can get pretty packed and I think they have reservation options. In the summer they have a rooftop- deff make reservations for that. Be sure to end your meal with any of their desserts and their tea They have multiple locations now so there are plenty of options to find one that's close you!“

“Just a lost soul visiting from japan. I happened to be in that neighborhood that day and stumbled into this place. When you step in you are acknowledged with great energy.Food was delicious. Fresh and generous. Nothing was left of the lamb kebab.“
