Middle Eastern Restaurants in Brooklyn, NY

“One of the best Palestinian food around 10 stars“

“I have visited the Allentown location several times. The food is always great, but what’s even better is the feeling of warmth the staff and owners emit. Everyone has always been so incredibly kind and attentive. Excellent food and service!“

“Don’t let the racist comments deter you from having some of the best food of your life! Will eat here every time I’m in town!“

“Fantabulous Ambience. Lively and lovely staff. Great food. Loved everything.“

“Great food with native Yemeni ambience and flavors.“

“placed an order for over 200.00$.The booklet that was attached to the bags says:; delivery is free within 3 miles with an order of 25$, but I was charged 5.00$ delivery fee Food is good, we got utensils but no plates . So I would rate just 3... Sorry“

“Had the falafel sandwich like many times as a vegan, but this was soooo good. Crispy outside, soft moist inside. Your choice of “salads”/pickled veggies to add into it. I had baba ghanoush, Julienne pickled carrots , and a cubed roasted eggplant, onion, and tomato. So flavorful without being overpowering w any one ingredient. Eddy makes everything homemade by hand. Everything! The falafel, hummus, baba ghanoush, the pickles, the pita. Pita so good. Large thick and soft. My friends had a beef kabob sandwich and chicken plate. They said it was delicious.

“I came here after my body building show after I got a recommendation from another friend that the food was phenomenal, after I’ve tried the food, I was star struck from how delicious the food was, the chicken over rice salad and pickles with the lamb shawarma sandwich sent me to heaven and back. Thank you for your great hospitality Alaqsa“

“Visiting with family. I was asked to choose any type of food and I decided to try Palestinian. The atmosphere was great, very welcoming. An ample menu to choose from. The food arrived very hot. Gorgeous presentation, and scrumptious spices and flavors. Very ample portions. I highly recommend others to eat here. 🤗“

“3 Falafel plates, 1 Spinach pie plus drinks for $50.

The food is AMAZING!!!!!!

I can't stress enough how good it is here.

If you live locally and don't come here, well I think your mad.

If you are visiting Manhattan and don't come across the water to eat here. Well I still think your mad.

This is how Falafel and Hummus is supposed to taste.“

“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!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I Highly recommend Al Noor Halal Deli. I been coming here for over 10 years. You get lot of great crispy freshly cooked food. Brother at the front is a wonderful person. Chef magdi has magic in his hands.“

“My girlfriend and I stopped by Fire Kabob and WOW! This place is great! Clean dining area and SUPER friendly staff. We ordered 2 plates, chicken and Lamb and then a side of eggplant burani. The food is fresh and delicious! The rice and homemade sauces are excellent. It also came with a side of bread and salad. Can't wait to try out all their other items, we will definitely be back. I would post pics but we scarfed down every bit of it. It's a must try! Chicken and Lamb - Tender and cooked perfect. Eggplant Burani - a must try, unlike anything I have ever tried. Rice - seasoned perfect and you get a lot of it. Def try the sauces that come with it.“

“😊 An excellent taste 🙏🙂🍀👍“

“I called the restaurant just to make sure if the places still open. The person answer the phone call I said was what time do you open next thing you know he hanged up on me so rude and that’s not business like with a customer that’s on the phone. I give you zero stars.. Who ever answer the phone 4/18/26 at 8:30. very rude n the phone. I'm pissed off right now..“

“🔝 Notch middle eastern cuisine, Hands down the best, Highly Recommended“

“We love this place. The food is superlative, the staff are attentive, cant think of anywhere netter for milescaround.“

“Absolutely delicious food made and served by kind and caring people.
The lovely people working here take the time to go over every ingredient with us so our food allergy toddler can get her favorite eats here. The chicken or beef over rice is SO good. The wraps and zatar bread are amazing. The fries are really good too. We can't get enough.
Big portions, affordable, healthy with tons of great vegetable options. Authentic and fast!“

I called the store to thank him when I got home and saw my order but no answer. This is what you call customer service 👏🏾“

“The food at Kemo’s Kitchen was incredible—everything was extremely flavorful, and you could really taste each individual ingredient. My wife and I even agreed that we enjoyed it more than our usual Pakistani and Indian cuisine. It had so much depth and flavor without depending entirely on heavy spices to make it taste good.

The masala fries were especially delicious! We believe the waiter gave them to us as an extra after seeing our daughter, which was incredibly thoughtful and kind of the brother. That small gesture made our experience even more special. Amazing food, warm hospitality, and genuinely kind people—we’ll definitely be back!“

“This restaurant is definitely one of my favorites! Not only is the food so flavorful and delicious the staff and service is also so wonderful. And when I say the food is delicious I mean literally everything! There is not one thing I wouldn’t recommend. They never disappoint. Even the atmosphere and seating is just so beautiful. The prices are also unbelievably affordable for such good food! This is a restaurant I would recommend to anyone even if they didn’t like Mediterranean food because they have something for everyone and nothing is neglected. Such an amazing place that’s worth many visits not just one.“

“One of the vest restaurants in NYC. The food is amazing and we are keep coming back over Andover.“

“WOW. We came in here not knowing what to expect and tried only 2 dishes… The Fattoush salad and the Lamb Ouzi Royale platter.
Boy, oh boy, were we pleasantly surprised!!! A little too much on the fried pita chips on the salad but I loved their dressing…a sweet and tangy flavor. Now the Lamb with rice was a hit. You have to try this lamb, it has great flavor…it’s absolutely delicious. The lamb was super tender it fell off the bone 🍖 We will be back!!!!!“

“I live upstate and I drive 2 hours just to come here and get lamp chops and rice best place ever I will never stop coming here no matter how far I have to drive“

“Bedouin Tent is a fantastic spot in Brooklyn for an authentic Middle Eastern meal. The food is high quality and delicious; I highly recommend the Chicken Plate, which comes with fresh salad and perfectly seasoned rice.

The atmosphere is what really sets this place apart, especially the back area which makes you feel like you are dining inside an actual tent. With outstanding customer service and a welcoming environment, it is the perfect place to experience great Middle Eastern vibes. Highly recommended!“

“Great food with native Yemeni ambience and flavors.“

“I have ordered form here several times and everytime it’s been AMAZING. My go to is their chicken shawarma combo that comes with fries and coleslaw. Very filling and tastes so so good, always fresh and hot. I didn’t even know it was a women owned business!!! I haven’t visited the restaurant in person yet but will soon! Keep it up, you got a customer for life 🤍“

“I visited Yummy Tummy bakery for the first time today, with five other friends of mine to support a Black-owned business during Black History Month. The owner Melissa and Kaylan made the entire experience a delight. The two of them made sure we got all of our treats in a timely manner and treated us with such care. The sweets themselves were absolutely delicious. The fruity pebble cupcake particularly was the perfect amount of sweet, moist, and airy. If you’re in the neighborhood, I’d definitely recommend you stop by!“

“i order from here often and their food is so good & it’s halal! everything i’ve eaten from here has tasted fresh & well seasoned. They close around 2 am and always add new stuff/combos to the menu. Just picked this up before they closed. They are also very nice & have always had great manners. Me & my dad go here all the time lol“

“This place exceeded all my expectations! The staff were genuinely friendly and made us feel so welcome. Every dish we ordered was absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. I was also impressed by how reasonable the prices were—you get amazing quality without spending a fortune. Great atmosphere, outstanding service, and fantastic food. I can’t wait to come back and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great dining experience!“

“I went here for lunch yesterday and had the Hanger Steak on Whole Wheat Pita (it was on the specials menu) and it truly made my day. So flavorful with sautéed onions and a delicious side salad. I HAD to write a review to help spread the news, the food was fresh and unbelievably good and the service was top notch. <3“

“I love the food, ambience and service.“

“Really excellent! I had the appetizer with stuffed grape leaves and tabbouleh, and it perfectly walked the line - deliciously seasoned meat, but just the right portion that, in combination with the whole grains and vegetables, the whole thing felt healthy and clean.

No A/C, or at least it wasn't working while we were there.“

“If you’re looking for authentic Lebanese and Mediterranean cuisine, this place is a must-visit. Every dish is fresh, flavorful, and prepared with high-quality ingredients. You can truly taste the care and attention that goes into every meal.

The service is always warm, friendly, and attentive, making every visit enjoyable. The restaurant has a welcoming atmosphere that makes you want to come back. Thank you very much 🙏🏼 Unfortunately, no photo.“

“Service is very attentive. A wide variety of Arab cuisine very well prepared including appetizers especially, entrees, sandwiches and desserts. Wait staff is very friendly. Cash only but prices are inexpensive and portions are generous! Two of us split a dinner as seniors.“

“Please call for reservation“

“Got a chicken burrito with pinto bean, brown rice, Monterrey jack cheese, pico de gallo and sour cream. The burrito was so good, very well seasoned. I couldn’t eat the whole thing because it was so much, so I took the rest to go. Overall the service and food was a 10/10. I would definitely go eat here and go back for lunch.“

“The Lights of Baku was an excellent choice for our wedding celebration in Brooklyn.

Throughout the planning process, Tarik was extremely helpful with both the menu selection and table arrangements, making everything organized and stress-free. Roma and the entire team created a warm and welcoming atmosphere from start to finish.

The food was outstanding — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The service was equally impressive: attentive, professional, and well-coordinated throughout the event.

A special mention also goes to the singer Volodya, whose captivating voice and wide repertoire added a wonderful touch to the evening.

Highly recommended for weddings, family celebrations, and special events.“

“The best sandwich I ever had in NYC the mama schnitzel was insane the Shawarma was so juicy no sauce was needed and meatballs soft and flavorful And the best Kabab I ever had like in my childhood in Israel .The service by shining was superb and warm.You can’t be in the neighborhood and not stop for a meal.

Vegetarian options: Sabich cauliflower humus and more

Kid-friendliness: Small burgers schnitzel hot dog“
