Al Badalwi offers a unique dining experience in New York, blending a homey atmosphere with artistic decor featuring murals and greenery. The restaurant's outdoor heated sidewalk seating allows guests to enjoy their meals while people-watching. The service team is attentive, especially during busy hours, ensuring guests have a memorable experience.
The food is a highlight, with generous portions that often leave diners with leftovers. Guests can start with dishes like Baba Ghanoush and Salata bi Tahina, which excite the palate. The Falafel Platter is well-received for its perfectly spiced falafel and fresh salad drizzled with pomegranate molasses dressing. The salmon kebab and mezze platter are also popular choices, though some found the hummus grainy.
Desserts like mint tea and baklava are exceptional, with the tea described as bright and flavorful, setting a new standard. Overall, Al Badalwi is recommended for its delicious food, inviting atmosphere, and attentive service, making it a must-visit for anyone in New York. Guests are reminded to bring their own beverages to enhance their dining experience.
