Went with a large group of people to Shukette. Definitely make a reservation for weeks in advance, because this place is always booked! The bread is so fresh, hot, tasty and I’m not a bread fan but I’m a fan of this bread. The lamb was a very small portion, most portions are small here, but the lamb tender perfect seasoning. The shrimp was tasty, not a big enough potion for me. There was also a beautiful kale dish that came with pistachios and a nice sauce. The rice was very good. Again small portion. Everything here is a la carte. The ice cream wasn’t doing anything for me and I doubt if it would do anything for you. There was a mix of tahini gelato with caramel nuts and some raspberry something that was so off. It’s a no for me on that. The price is pricey and you’re going to need to order a lot of stuff to feel “full” or satiated due to portion size. Great for large groups, date night. Ambiance is nice but a bit loud. And the spaces are tight.

If you come to NY and you don’t visit Shukette, you are truly missing out. I love sitting at the bar and watching them cook while I eat. The food is absolutely incredible. The drinks are fresh. I have never eaten at a better Mediterranean restaurant in my life. I’ve been here twice now, about 18 mo apart and both times the food was INCREDIBLE.

A wonderful dinner at one of my favorite NYC restaurants, Shukette, lead by Executive Chef, Ayesha Nurdjaja.
It’s always difficult to choose from their amazing seasonal menu of sharing plates. Tonight we had:
- Smoked arctic char with smoked onion-garlic aioli, dill, red onion, lemon; - Toum, whipped garlic - Boureka with halloumi, spinach, mozzarella, and cilantro-garlic butter - Chickpea flaxseed crackers - Grilled zucchini with garlic scape pistachio pesto, charred red onion, mint, basil - Ras el hanout lamb with hummus, charred broccolini, spring onion, herb charmoula and crispy chickpeas. - All accompanied by a Feudo Montoni’s Catarratto from Sicily.
We sat in the back, near the kitchen, which was a blessing and a curse. We got to observe Ayesha working but it was hotter than hell - and loud! Next time, I’ll eat outside!

Had a last-minute reservation on a Sunday early evening and lucked out with seats at the counter right in front of the kitchen — arguably the best experience. The atmosphere is definitely on the louder and more intense side, typical of many trendy spots in the city.
The food was fantastic, and the service was quick. The staff was super friendly and helpful throughout the meal.
Highly recommend sitting at the counter if you’re a party of two — it’s immersive and fun. For groups, a table works best for up to four people. This isn’t the place for large parties or business dinners.
We ordered the frena, babagaboush, crispy shrimp, lamb kebab, and the fish in a cage — all delicious. The only slight letdown was the fish in a cage, which had been highly recommended by the waiter. Next time, I’d opt for a different dish.

Luckily i got two seats by walk-in. It is a bit loud to have a conversation and quite small in portion. But the foods taste good!! Prepare enough budget if you want to explore different dishes.

I hope you’re hungry.. for nothing. TBH this was the worst Mediterranean food I’ve ever had. It was hard to get down. I am shocked that they have such long lines to get in. The steak was gamey and gross and the chicken tasted like it was marinated in almond soap. Pleaseeeee save yourself the $200 tab.
Everything about this place is 5 star. Thank you for a phenominal experience.

Shukette is amazing, there really isn’t anything else to say. You just want to keep ordering more and more, the frena and labneh is to die for, but so are all the breads and dips. The steak kebab was my favorite protein, but honestly i could go and be satisfied just eating bread, dips and their amazing fries all with the white harrisa and toum sauces. You have to go here, it is worth everything.

Got violently sick exactly 6 hours after my meal. Sat at the counter and watched the cooks dole out greasy sauces that were out for hours near a hot flame. Watched a cook take out his phone while wearing gloves, text someone, and proceed to continue touching all the food. Either that or the constant dripping moldy AC condensation falling onto the food…real shame because everything was so tasty but NOT worth the pain.
