I recently revisited this gem and felt compelled to update my previous review because words alone can't capture the sheer culinary delight I experienced. Their food is authentically fresh, bursting with flavor, and transports you straight to an Israeli eatery *chef's kiss*.
When they sing "Ooh Heaven is a Place on Earth," they must be referring to this restaurant. You know that sensation when something is so delectable your eyes close to fully appreciate each taste? Imagine flavors pirouetting on your palate; each bite is a dance of taste that leaves you craving more. I challenge you to try their knaffeh and not feel that way! (And that's coming from someone who typically isn't a cheese fan.)
It may have a cozy, homestyle ambiance, but their dishes pack a flavorful punch. This is undoubtedly one of Brooklyn's finest hidden Middle Eastern Kosher gems. Here, you won't find oil laden dishes. Instead, you'll savor homemade deliciousness infused with love in every bite.
Don't walk - run to this place and indulge in a piece of heaven! We had the shakshukah and knaffeh, and I'll definitely be returning for more.
Delicious food! The best falafel and Hummus in NY!!

Taste of Akko is such a gem in the heart of Brooklyn. You can really tell it’s a family-run place with a love for food because everything we tried was so good. The falafel balls (from the falafel plate) were honestly the best I’ve ever had.
We also got to chat with the owner and his wife, and they were so friendly and welcoming. Can’t wait to come back!

Haven’t had falafel like this since I was in Israel. Come here for any meal, you’ll feel like you’re eating at home. Well priced, super tasty, wouldn’t change a thing.

A gem of a restaurant that was a lifesaver when you're craving vegetarian Israeli cuisine like I do. I had the hummus with fava beans on top. They serve two pita breads, zhug, tahina and pickles on the side. Went out full and happy. Very sweet owners (family business). Will come back and urge you to check it out when you're in the area!
An amazing experience. Delicious, clean, high quality, healthy and nutritious. Israeli feeling there in the small pocket many other Israeli restaurants in Israel. Highly recommend. Must try the falafel balls!!!

If you haven't checked out this place yet, you’re missing out. I’d give it a solid 10/10. Definitely order the Hummus Ful. It's not just good, it's amazing. The exact recipe, prep, taste, and consistency is something you'd normally need a plane ticket to find. Thank me later
