“Not my first time there and won’t be the last.

Staff was knowledgeable and displayed the middle eastern warmth and hospitality.

Chef Soroosh gracefully sent us some complimentary items to perfectly pair with our dishes.

From the menu to the service. Everything was on point.

Thank you Sawa!“

“Want to make your pallet dance? Of course you do! Boutros is the place to go from their tantalizing cocktails to their original baba ghanoush and falafel you’ll be simply amazed. Old school, traditional recipes with a twist of new flare. Mikey is a wizard for creating his cocktails. I had the pleasure of trying two of them that he created after thinking about them for 12 years and I highly recommend them the Garlic Gibson and the Bitter tree, both are amazing. Allen, who is the chef and owner and named this quaint little place after his dad will delight you with his specialties my Sister and I had the mushroom hummus. The short rib wraps are beautiful salad and baba ghanoush to name a few. Hurry up, you won’t be disappointed!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Lebanese food served in small plates. Really enjoyed the options they had. The labne plate and pita bread is so fresh and delicious. The batata was crispy and excellent. The rice dish flavor was good it’s just we had some very hard pieces of rice mixed in- not sure if it was because of being reheated too much or being a little stale.“

“I’ve been going to the Tripoli since I was a child (1975, so I was 2 years old). At first, the draw was their authentic pastries (their Birds Nests are TOP NOTCH!!!). To this day, I love their traditional Lebanese cuisine (their humus, babaghanouj and tabouli are AMAZING as is their shish-kabob and chicken shishtaouk). If ever you find yourself on the border between Brooklyn Heights and Cobble Hill Brooklyn (NYC), I can’t recommend them enough!!!“

“Finally checked out Fatima's Grill and wow, the fusion concept is super creative! Everything is halal and the portions are massive — we got the shawarma crunch wrap (basically a loaded Crunchwrap Supreme with tender chicken shawarma, fries, and sauces) and a Hot Cheetos asada burrito. The crunch wrap was fun and crunchy, with good spice, and the burrito had that bold, cheesy kick from the Cheetos dust — definitely unique and Instagram-worthy. Also tried the chicken over rice platter; the rice was flavorful and the chicken juicy, though I wish the overall seasoning was a bit stronger/more consistent across the dishes.“

“Have you walked past this place and thought about trying it? The smells, the look, and the staff all seem to invite you in but you haven't made up your mind yet? Well this is your formal invitation to take that step. The food is delicious, the burgers flavorful, the lamb soft with a hint of common Halal food cart notes but with a twist that raises it to another level of culinary experience.

Remember when it used to be a fried chicken spot? The new place has not been lost in terms of service and comfort food. Trust me. There's still a lot of fried tasty foods for those nights when you want to stay in with a movie and appetizers.

They have platters for dinner nights or lunch dates.

The hummus and lentil soup are some of my favorite lighter things to order.

I buy olive oil from them for my house.

I'm making this review because a lot of people ask me about this place. They're mainly skeptical to go in because it's still a friend chicken spot in their hearts but they're always curious to know how good the food from their new menu.

Hands down, no bs, it's amazing.
Same owner. Different menu. Trust me, go in and order something 😁 try their drinks, they have some fun looking bottles that are sooooo good 👍“

Alsalam

Alsalam Lebanese • $
7206 5th Ave, Brooklyn

“The quality of the meat from the butcher in the back is outstanding—everything tastes incredibly fresh and flavorful. I especially love their sujok, the spicy beef sausage. It’s perfectly seasoned with just the right kick, and you can usually find it in the freezer section, available in different levels of spiciness.

After the recent construction, the place looks fantastic. The new layout is clean, modern, and well-organized. It’s clear that a lot of thought went into enhancing both the food offerings and the overall atmosphere.

Don’t miss their manaeesh—they’re absolutely delicious. Whether you choose za’atar, cheese, or a mix, each one is baked fresh and bursting with flavor.“

“First time at a NAYA! Very similar to a Cava / Mezze with bowl + wraps. Stopped by on an early Sat afternoon and there was ample seating. I decided to get a Chicken Shawarma bowl bc it seemed basic enough. However, I did ask the server what protein they preferred and they said the Lamb, so they generously added a piece of Lamb at no extra cost! l also trusted the server choose the toppings and sauces to add + it didn't disappoint! I got the side of pita to round out my first time.

Overall, the bowl was great! I Will say, similar to other fast casual bowl spots, after 1/2 way through, all your bites start to taste the same. Not in a bad way, it's just the nature of everything getting mixed together. Service was a bit slow bc there were mobile orders coming in, but shoutout to the friendly staff overall! I wish there were outlets for me to charge my phone lol Decent location in the heart of Downtown Brooklyn with a huge plaza right outside to enjoy the nice weather.“
