“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.“

“Worth it! I got very lucky and was able to go two nights in a row and both nights were amazing. The staff is so friendly and the servers are fantastic (shoutout Mia & Dave)!! Food is amazing. Get the Cabbage - it is phenomenal!!! Also the Ricotta Toast!! Ambiance is also great 10/10.“

“Casual, friendly atmosphere,eclectic menu, looking forward to my next visit“

“The fluke ceviche is a miracle. The pomegranate and fluke combination simply explodes in the mouth. The Basmati rice a triumph. Who knew crispy scallions could do this? The dirty chai crème brûlée orgasmic alongside the coconut sorbet... incredible!!“

“We passed by this restaurant last week on our way to Irish Rep Theater and decided to give it a try. What a wonderful find! It is a charming restaurant with an attractive open kitchen and nice counter to watch the action. Tables are well spaced and comfortable. From the moment we sat down our server, Milos, could not have been more hospitable. He knew the menu well and was helpful with suggestions on both food and wines. He was professional and efficient and welcoming. The food was outstanding. They have a happy hour with delicious oysters and a nice variety of spreads and other small plates. A meal could easily be made at happy hour. The food was beautifully plated and delicious and of note the sauteed shrimp were perfectly cooked. There is much more on the menu we would like to try. We will be returning with a larger party next time to share many delicious plates. A wonderful addition to our NYC favorite spots.“

“Amazing food and warm, friendly staff.“

“Cozy atmosphere and fine dining“

“Delicious food and cocktails“

“Food was amazing for my cousins birthday. I only wish that the steak portions were a bit larger for the cost.
Hangersteak did take an hour half to be plated. Seated at 530 steak came at 715.
Salmon was a little under for my liking and was taking off the bill with no issues. Friendly waitress same girl that did my anniversary dinner there.
Hands down some of the best food around“

“Melissa and James create soul food with modern twist -- with big flavors! I visited P&C multiple times already, with family, friends and work colleagues and highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to eat modern American with a lot of love. 🍷🍸🍹Their cocktails are equally amazing and delicious, they also have a fantastic wine selection and their freshly baked Pita is a MUST! Please do go and visit P&C to also support the local restaurant community -- they deserve it! 🥰🍾🥙“

“Amazing food and great atmosphere. The grilled kebab was very flavorful and perfectly cooked, and the fresh salad and grilled vegetables were delicious. Everything tasted fresh and high quality. The staff was very welcoming and friendly, making the experience even better. Definitely a place I would come back to again. Highly recommended. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Everything was great! The lamb chops are fantastic!“

“Yemeni Restaurant hit all the right spots — full 5 stars! The food was outstanding: tender, perfectly spiced mandi chicken, rich saltah stew, fresh haneeth lamb, and the best honey-drizzled malawah bread. Everything tasted homemade and full of flavor.
Service was warm and quick — friendly staff who explained the dishes and kept everything flowing smoothly. Atmosphere is cozy and casual: simple décor with welcoming vibes, great for a relaxed meal.
Perfect authentic Yemeni spot — great value and generous portions. Highly recommend for anyone craving real Middle Eastern comfort food in the city!“

“Came here for brunch a couple weeks ago and loved everything about it. The food was delicious, portion sizes large and quick service. I will for sure be back to try the entire dip offering but truly you’re not going to go wrong with whatever you order here.“

“I came here with my family, we were a party of 15 people! The service was great - thank you Noya and all the other staff! The food was delicious and the vibes were vibing!
The timing of everything was great, the staff came around often but we’re not overbearing at all, it was the perfect balance of coming around when we needed them and giving us our space to enjoy ourselves. Definitely worth every penny. My family is very picky and not one complaint.“

“Hart's has quickly become one of my favorite spots in Brooklyn. I arrived right at opening (5:30pm) and was seated at the bar immediately. It's super convenient if you're coming off the A/C. The playlist was great and the vibe was calm and unhurried.

The food is where Hart's really shines. The roast oysters with vermouth butter and horseradish were the standout of the night, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of kick. The savoy cabbage with serrano ham and borlotti beans was homey and comforting. The clam toast with pancetta was deeply savory and something I'd come back for on its own. The seafood rice was the one dish that didn't quite land for me. Not bad, just the least memorable of the bunch.

Highly recommend“

“5 stars always !!!!!“

“Went today for the first time, wonderful staff and the food was incredible. Great size portions, every part of our meal was delicious. Cannot wait to go back again. Well worth the ride from Ramsey. NJ“

“Nice Mediterranean spot, might want a reservation as it is a bit small. Excellent dessert selections and pastries. We enjoyed the calamari, hummus, and the mixed grill and decided the lamb chops were the best part. All of it was delicious but I would order just lamb chops next time, the mixed grill is a nice way to try several meats. The hummus and pita were very good as was the calamari and the sauce it was served with was very nice as well.“

“This is the best restaurant in Nolita—hands down. The atmosphere is warm and stylish, the food is outstanding, and every dish is made with care and attention to detail.

Mehdi and Salim are incredibly hardworking and truly put their heart into everything they do—you can feel that in every aspect of the experience. The service is friendly, attentive, and welcoming.

Definitely a must-visit whether you’re local or just in the neighborhood.“

“I’ve been in the restaurant industry for 6 years and have eaten at countless places, and rarely am I ever impressed. However this place blew me away. Everything tasted so fresh and flavorful to the point I kept eating way after I was full. The service was also incredible and the staff was super sweet! The prices were also great. I’m unfortunately from NC but i would drive all the way back to eat from here again.“

“We had a great experience at Dar. The lamb was incredibly tender and literally fell off the bone, making it one of the highlights of the meal. The lentil soup was also very tasty—rich, comforting, and full of flavor. The paella was excellent as well, perfectly cooked and very satisfying.

Our server, Cece, was attentive, friendly, and helpful throughout the meal, which made the experience even better. The service overall was great, and everything came out in a timely manner. I would definitely come back again for both the food and the service.“

Thanks Marcos!!!!!!“

“I went to Ella Social for the first time on Friday, December 19, 2025. The food was superbly seasoned and delicious! The service was top notch and the ambience was great.“

“Cute spot for an intimate dinner or sitting at the bar. I had bread with arahova feta butter, which was good. For the main, I had the cavatelli with pesto, which had nice strong notes of basil. My husband had the tagliolini al Amalfi limone, which had bright notes of lemon balanced with saltiness from the cheese. For dessert, we shared the dark chocolate mousse, which was delicious — rich, not too sweet, and ample portion for sharing. The cocktails are also good.

Service is very friendly.“
