“Here's the review Spencer wrote for you: My family and I just visited to celebrate my grandsons birthday- we like to get a bunch of plates and share family style and this menu was perfect for that. You have to get mezze and extra bread (must try the kubane). We also ended up getting three orders of the shishbarak for the six of us, it is way too good! I got the salmon for my entree which was cooked to perfection and beautifully seasoned. Spencer our server recommended the silan and the cheesecake for dessert so we shared those and boy were they something special- I can’t pick a favorite! He brought us a candle and we got some great pictures. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough.“

“The best Albanian food in NY😋👌“

“I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant!!! Their food tasted SO good and tasted like it was homemade food. It was made with so much love, and the food was so flavorful and seasoned. Every thing I got, hit. I got the curry chicken platter, and I cleaned my plate. The mint lemonade tasted so fresh and refreshing. The baklava was really good, as well. The customer service was excellent and so homey, as well!“

“Kitchen 46 is a hidden gem in the heart of New York City’s Theater District, offering a fresh and flavorful take on modern Mediterranean cuisine. Led by Executive Chef Guy Kairi, the restaurant blends classic dishes with creative touches, all served in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Guests consistently rave about the grilled octopus, salmon tartare, and vibrant salads, while the friendly service and cozy vibe make it a perfect spot for a pre-show dinner or a relaxed night out. Kitchen 46 delivers a consistently satisfying experience—and it’s a place you’ll want to return to again and again. Highly recommended.“

“Hands down the best Turkish food in NYC. The owner-operator, Mike, is always on-site, adding a personal touch that makes the experience feel both welcoming and elevated. The food is clean, healthy, and notably free of seed oils — a rare and refreshing standard. The chicken chops are excellent, the chicken shish is top-tier, and the mezze selection is absolutely fantastic. Every dish reflects real care and quality.“

“Every dish exudes the flavor of sunshine and sea breeze, and the soul of the Mediterranean is perfectly presented!😄😄“

Super comfortable spot!“

“After a rather serious medical visit in town, we needed a comfort food lunch and a place to meditate on the day. Cava's menu was perfect and Jonathan at the Winston Salem NC location was super kind and helpful. He had our food ready in no time flat! The outdoor seating provided a quiet atmosphere away from the music inside. We will be back again to enjoy the good food when our hearts are not so heavy and we can enjoy a nice lunch surrounded by such nice staff.“

“Was looking for Mediterranean food for my wife and I on a casual evening out and we were not disappointed. Super friendly/helpful staff, wonderful atmosphere, and a wonderful selection of food. My wife and I got a bowl and we both loved it. If you are looking for a counter style Mediterranean place to eat this is a fantastic choice! All the food is made fresh. My wife ordered pita chips and falafel on the side and both were made fresh when we ordered. The pita chips were thick and super crispy. The falafel was incredibly moist too. Highly recommend!“

“Fantastic Doner, the cuisine is exceptional.“

“I first started trying cava when I started my first year of college and I could not stop getting it. Especially at this location which is perfect for when I’m on the way to school. The location is very ambient relaxing I like the seating arrangements it feels very welcoming and not too overwhelming. The staff and everyone who greets me are great and very patient with me especially because I’m still fairly new to the place.“

“This restaurant is a hidden gem. With incredible service, ambiance, and exquisite
Cuisine. Every dish is crafted to perfect, with incredible flavor. This local spot in Hillsdale has become a favorite spot for me to escape the craziness of everyday and just unwind. It’s a great place for a casual dinner, celebration, and catching up with loved ones. Don’t hesitate to visit this spot, you will not be disappointed. They are BYOB so there’s a perfect excuse to bring a friend.“

“Amizigh Food Truck was hired for our company picnic and everyone loved the food! They had a staff of 3 friendly workers and the line moved fast. I had a combination Moroccan chicken, Shawarma, and Falafel combination bowl that was so good! The burritos also looked great, as did the vegetarian options. So glad my company chose them!“

“The food is awesome and fresh.“

“Every time we come to Manhattan and stay midtown we come back to this restaurant. Invited another couple to try it. Israeli salad ; salmon skewers were delicious. Humuus is fresh delicious. Matzo Ball soup great . Disappointed with the very sweet—-too sweet sorbet. They forgot to give us the chips we always enjoy. Had to ask for it. This was our forth visit in a year. May skip next time and try some other restaurant during our next trip to NY.“

“food was simply delicious and well served👍❤️❤️❤️ the stuff was amazingly friendly and professional❤️❤️❤️will definitely go back there❤️❤️❤️💐💐💐“

“I found an oasis in the busy city as well place to spend time while my wife is at art class. The atmosphere is very calm and relaxing, extremely clean. With most things in life, it’s the people working there. The staff in the owner are funny, helpful, and just there to give everyone a good time. The food just simply blows me away. It taste so good.“

“Amazing service and amazing food! Highly suggest the spicy lamb as well as the chicken shawarma platters. Pita, hummus, rice, and all of their sauces were the bomb. Our server was extremely friendly and we were even given a free baklava sample.“

“Please come. It’s family owned I believe. Very nice people. Very homey and to the point joint. We asked about the different beverages and they explained it so well. Got Mixed meat for 2. The long sausage was by far my favorite. Chicken was tender and juicy. The kidneys were so good. And finally the Sweetbreads( Beef pancreas) something I’ve never had before. I had to call them to get the name. My first time having that and Bosnian food. Both such a great experience. Every was fresh, everything was hot, even the pita bread, it was clearly made in house and was so fresh. I’m not sure who’s the chef here but they get down! The Cockta which was recommended was so good I had to buy another. I will be back!“

“Highly recommended ,we have been several times here. Awesome servis, very friendly and all foods are delicious .“

“Great place, decent portion size for the price, delicious and scrumptious flavorful food. Highly recommend the lamb and chicken sandwich, you get a great mix of flavors. Relatively filling but not too much, just the right amount. Roughly 1.63 Big Macs in size but obviously much higher quality. Better than a Big Mac 100%. Great service as well, they are very friendly and nice. A small area to sit if it’s not busy, but easy to eat the sandwiches to go as well. Would definitely go again and try something else.“

“Excellent food and service Good environment.“

“Great restaurant new to the east side. It’s said to be related to Mariam located on the west side and has a very similar menu.

You want leave disappointed, every dish is both interesting and flavorful drawing from Mediterranean, Israeli and Lebanese/eastern like dishes.“

“Love the food“
