This place is amazing! The pita and boo tan bread was incredible! The falafel was so authentic and insanely delicious (watch out though the hummus from the hummus bowl is spicy!) The Labneh was delicious! Highly recommend

I’m still thinking about the taboon bread. It was pure magic - it’s like a pillowy soft sourdough that’s hollow in the center and super thin and crispy on the outside. And the falafel was even more crispy I heard it from across the table. We ordered nothing but mezze, and still left happy and full.

We went during a weekday and was able to grab a seat right at dinner hour. The food were well seasoned, prepared, and presented. Portion is great for one-person or sharing with a group. Great service as well. Will return to try different dishes!

This was an excellent restaurant and is going on my list of favorites on the Upper West Side, and maybe even New York. Every item we got was excellent, the type of meal that is worth going out for. The service was great, a bit noisy by I could still hear my friend. I loved the experience and cannot wait to be back.

My friend recommended this Mediterranean delight as a place where I as more of a plant-based eater can enjoy a satisfying meal. Well I can say he was right. My favorite was the Smoky eggplant carpaccio which although it is supposed to be an appetizer served as my main course with a lot of hot bread. We also got some olives and whipped feta. I have to admit the pink drink that I got with elderflower and gin was just a touch underwhelming, but the food as well as the ambience was so excellent I am still going to go ahead and give this place a five-star.

One of our favorite restaurants in the area. Kebab Halabi and chicken Musakhan are both delicious. Also, the cauliflower appetizer is great. They also brought us a complimentary "Indian tahini" dip, which we loved. Drinks are also nice, we especially loved the "Persian lemonade". Service is also great.

Probably the best Mediterranean and Israeli food I had in Nyc!! Amazing fresh baked breads and hummus. So many great vegetarian options! Falafel, Roasted Cabbage and Eggplant carpacio were delicious! What a great place!

We went on a rather cold night , even though we had no reservation they seated us at the bar the atmosphere was fabulous. I had the Burrata and Kebab Halabi. Beautifully served inside warm bread and filling. Presentation and the dishes were phenomenal. Could not be happier.
A place highly recommended.

It feels like home. The staff is generous and sweet plus the dishes don’t disappoint. I felt more and more satisfied with each bite. How is that possible bustan ? The level of freshness and thoughtfulness of design makes each dish complete. We ordered:
-hummus: I loved they served a herbed oil and chick pea chunks on top. Their house bread is delicious and made to order
-baked fish- in a clay pot with chick peas and tahini, this was amazing.
-baked chicken served on bread: the tenderness ???? it was def marinated with lots of love
-baked sweet potatoes- comes with seasme seeds on top and of course, baked to perfection.
The level of execution with each dish is top notch. They know what they are doing. Will be back.
