Zaffron Bloom is a family-owned business, and the staff were friendly and kind; they even brought us a complimentary Shirazi salad and appetizer.I look forward to going there again to try more of their delicious food, as they have many options on their menu.“

“Drawing its roots in the noble tradition of Yemeni coffee, this coffee house first serves fabulous beverages: especially taste the Sanaani, cardamom coffee ($10 for a pot of sharing coffee), or a classic "pour-over" ( $8 for the large model) to appreciate a beautiful expression coming from high-class Arabica coffee beans, processed with respect for the product. The typical pastries, Khaliat Alnahl and Sabaya, or even the coconut Basboassa are really all very tasty. Delicious !“

“Located north of Radio city hall, there seems to be a new competitor coming up for Adel's famous halal. This place is run by Afghans and they are really warm and welcoming people to their food truck also the service is quick while the food is served hot and fresh.After reading some reviews here, I opted for a chicken chapli kebab platter. Chapli kebab is basically a ethnic Pashtun dish from the border region of Afghanistan-Pakistan. The minced chicken was good while adding the right amount of spices to give a succulent taste, for the first time, I had cumin rice and it tasted good and was a welcome change from the regular saffron rice available elsewhere. These people provided fries alongside salad and topped it with white sauce which had the right amount of thickness while their mint sauce was a welcome addition to this. I don't usually go for the spicy sauce as I'm not a big fan of it.Overall it's a great experience to try something for the first time apart from halal guys and adel's. The big advantage of the food is that it lacks food coloring like adel's and whatever prepared is done in the right way while also the wait time is very less compared to adel's and halal guys.“

“Stopped by for an early Mother’s Day dinner and honestly, their service was incredible! As for Food my favorite dish had to definitely be the Branzino, but their Chicken Shawarma was also great. Thank you to Edwin for making us feel at home! ✨“

“Delicious Palestinian food! We were blown away from the moment the appetizers were served. Highly recommend the hummus to start and lamb makluba!The service was phenomenal as well! Next time you’re in the area, be sure to check out this restaurant!“

“I know this place just opened, but I extremely highly recommend. A few of my friends came to eat here and so I decided to give it a try. Walking in, I was surprised how there was literally no one there but a ton of workers which I guess was great for me as they were super attentive. I was a bit surprised by the prices were pretty high for something that was supposed to be take-out, but the minute they start making the shawarma, I knew why it was more expensive. I ordered the Chicken Shawarma platter and it was delicious! Perhaps one of the best shawarmas I've had in the city. First of all, they gave us a platter just for all the toppings, did I mention that they are unlimited, that they had. Sometimes the toppings don't have that much flavor, but each one was very complex and flavorful. The chopped salad was light and fresh which balanced out the finely chopped pickles which added a sour taste. The red cabbage slaw which was slightly savory and slightly sour balanced out the onions that had a slight charred on it. I was so delighted by all the different toppings, which is where I think the place definitely shines. The chicken itself was okay, tender but not crazier than normal. Overall, I had an amazing experience and especially with the portion sizes, the platter could easily feed a family of 4 with additional leftovers. I think it will take me at least 6-7 meals before eating it all but I did add some of my own rice to counteract the bounty of flavors. I will say that they don't automatically give you the rice or the fries so big reminder to ask them for that when you come.“

“Great food great atmosphere great service“

“Went here today, in absolute awe over how beautiful this restaurant is in the inside. Food was 10/10 and service was 10/10“

“This is my favorite Middle Eastern food spot. I always get pick-up, but the vibe seems nice there. It's a little small inside though. The lamb pitza is to die for. You must try this place, and don't forget to order their freshly-made hummus; it's the best I've ever tasted, and several of my friends agreed.“

“Delicious , great service“

“I love this place, it offers a few varieties of traditional cuisines I had the mensef and I have to be honest. It was absolutely AMAZING and phenomenal, service is amazing , and the ambiance is amazing as well! I highly recommend this place for everyone to come by and try it! I will definitely be coming here allot more.“

“Intimate restaurant with great vegetarian options. Halloumi, labne, crispy cauliflower and veggie curry were standouts. Also shoutout to the bartender for the gold rush cocktail (no longer on the menu, but just as good as we remembered).Dietary restrictions: Waiter was knowledgeable about ingredients and helped me navigate a nut and sesame allergy.“

“Wow this was the best middle Eastern food I've had at a restaurant. I wish I had a chance to meet the owner because I have so much respect for the multitude of levels her dishes had. I had one dish that could be tasted in 5 different ways with the variety of sauce combinations available on the plate alone. The prices to me were well below what they deserved to be. Whenever I go back to New York I will definitely be back here. It also hit close to home for me because my Sita used to make kibeh and it was a joy trying an elevated version of what she used to make from the pistachio baklava to the kibeh itself. So happy this place exists.“

“Alright! Where do i begin?! There were 4 people behind the counter and when i walked in, all four greeted me. The manager greeted at the ordering station and didnt overwhelm me to order my food as this was the first time being there. He asked me if id like any suggestions and we landed on the chicken platter with spicy chickpeas rice and cole slaw. Everything about this bowl was immaculate. The chicken was well seasoned and spiced, the chick peas were tender and savory, and the rice was such a great compliment to the protein. I also ordered their fries because why not!The portion size was generous but not overbearing. They had the mexican coke glass bottles which was a great choice to wash the food down with. I got the brown to top it all off and it was amazing. Chipotle, Qdoba, Halal Guys even have nothing on Juicy Platters. I definitely will be coming back with the family!“

“Bustan is a must if you are looking for delicious middle eastern cuisine. It’s authentic and sophisticated with rich flavors. Our favorites were the kebabs, Moroccan fish, gem salad, cauliflower, hummus, labneh, and the pitas were perfect. The malabi and chocolate cake are also excellent. Definitely come here or even order from here!!“

“Outstanding! Super comfort-chic vibe and great ambiance all around. Management, servers, et all were A plus. Passover pre fixe and A la carte were just perfect. Matzah hall soup and gefilte fish app platter were superb! A definite go to again!“

“Good hole-in-the-wall falafel place. Simple, no frills, good food. Macdougal street is really cool, a few other nice spots for cheap food......used to be look better before they added the outdoor tents, they really break up the vibe. Maybe if they disappear once the weather improves. Falafel was solid, but a little too messy and the hummus was a bit too runny.Overall: 3.5/5“

“Visited American Dream Mall and decided to find some good food to eat! Came across this delicious Turkish restaurant. I had the chicken Adana kabob and my family members had salmon lamb chops lanb Adana, which was all wonderful. THE LENTIL SOUP, one of the best I have had!! Great portions, about $20-$30 a person. I am stuffed! Deniz was the gentleman who helped us and was super attentive! He recommended some yummy Turkish sodas and desserts. Great service, would definitely come here again!“

“This place is cozy and has an amazing variety of Mediterranean cuisine. Excellent service!The pita is perfectly soft and goes very well with their homemade hummus and baba ganoush. Every dish is authentic and delicious. From their fresh mint lemonade to their dessert, everything was wonderful. I hope they stay around for a long time because we’ll be eating here more often. Thank you!“

“The beautiful, intimate atmosphere and absolutely top notch comfort food would be worth it alone - BUT the service was also awesome. After we were graciously seated without a reservation (try to book ahead because you really won't want to miss this place), the staff was so kind, friendly, and attentive. Absolutely everything we had was wonderful but the knafeh actually brought a tear to my eye. ❤️ Absolutely would recommend 5 out of 5 stars.“

“Best food we ate in NYC, especially because we can't get it in San Francisco. The $10 price point makes it even more delicious and worth the hour wait in line. Portions are perfect for post-show munchies and you can tell the meat is so fresh. Always ask for extra white sauce!“

“I love it nice food friendly ppl thank you“

“Really good food and service. Falafel and garlic is sauce is out of this world.“

“Stumbled upon this place while in the area and was beyond pleasantly surprised. All the ingredients were delicious and fresh. I got the chicken shawarma bowl and it was amazinggg. The service was also very good! They were very patient and explained all the ingredients.Dietary restrictions: Very healthy options“

“I came to ABA with my daughter while visiting college campuses and the food was very yummy- Turkish people can be very critical about Turkish food when it’s cooked and served away from homeland but We couldn’t find anything to criticize here @ABA, they deserve 5 stars ?“

“Pretty good falafel pita and chicken shawarma pita. A bit pricey but understandable since this is an student area to hang out. Very chill atmosphere, free water although the outside seats are not very sturdy. Overall, recommended for a quick bite.“

“Delicious and friendly. Been coming here for years and bringing friends who visit from out of town.“

“Been eating At this lovely restaurant for years.. it’s about time to give them the review they deserve.. absolutely amazing and highly recommended to anyone who’s into authentic Mediterranean food.Shout out to Rayan and his brother for incredible services.“

“We’ve had Middle Eastern/Lebanese food in Paris, San Francisco, Montreal, Miami, London and other cities and this place probably takes 1st place out of all of them. Delicious food most importantly but also great service and ambience. Falafels are top notch, so is the hummus.“

“Very nice and clean place to eat from and respectful service“

“I found this place on yelp and decided to give it a try because I was in town on business. The atmosphere was very inviting. My server was pleasant, knowledgeable, and very helpful in many recommendations. I ended up with the lunch special kebab. It came with the most delightful salad featuring best flavors! The main course was a generous portion of chicken, rice, and another salad. I would definitely make it a point to visit here again!“

“It is the best persian food I have tried in New York. The staff was friendly and professional.The owner is very kind, also he is the former goal keeper of Persepolis soccer team of Iran.“

“We dined in a couple days ago, and it was excellent.The restaurant is nicely decorated with fresh flowers, chandeliers, and paintings. Moreover, the variety is great, and the food is delicious but a bit salty.The food is marked-up by $2-4 if you choose to dine-in and there is an additional fee to pay by card. However, they seem to make up for the cost by providing more sides and bread. Plus, the portions were large and still well priced for the amount.Overall, I would go back, but I would do take-out instead.“

“Amazing Falafel sandwiches, authentic as it gets, and as clean as it gets!Vegetarian options: Vegetarians will love this place, king of falafelKid-friendliness: Staff is super friendly and the inside is very cozy, your family will feel at home“

“Visited Ali baba restaurant recently, Absolutely Amazing, the warm hospitality is like no other. The food is amazing, made to order with the best quality ingredients.

Highly recommended, definitely will visit again. Thank you Alibaba.“
