Au Za'atar

Foursquare tips did not do us wrong -- kebabs are great, cauliflower is great. The pita & hummus & olive oil you get right after you sit may be the best part tho. a bit pricey . I bet brunch is killer

Brunch here spans from classic French to classic Middle Easter cuisine. Menu includes shakshuka , kafta benedict, and an "Au Za'atar Breakfast ," served with eggs , pita , & a selection of mezze . Read more

Robert Sietsema's 2 star review: "One of the most delicious things on the menu is arnabeet mekle ($7), an oil-moistened heap of fried, copper-colored cauliflower with fronds of flat-leaf parsley ." Read more

Get a taste of the traditional Arabian French vegetarian dishes . Have the fatteh al-betenjane ($13), eggplant topped with toasted pita bread & smothered with garlic yogurt sauce and sautéed pine nuts . Read more

Don't miss the cauliflower (the one without tahini !), the makanek (gorgeously fatty and meaty lamb sausages ), or the lamb tartar . the mujadara is also great if you have any vegs in tow.

Amazing place! Loved the pita with zaatar they bring. Hummus was good. Loved arnabeet mekle (cauliflower ) - a little lemony. Fattoush was really good! Hubster found his chicken Kabob to be dry.

Picked up a take out order. Delicious salmon salad , moussaka , and chicken kebab . Will be back

I walk by everyday and am glad I finally gave it a shot. Table favorites: falafel , hummus , fattoush salad , cauliflower w/ yogurt tahini , grilled halloum, and filet mignon . Fun for a group!

French to classic Middle Easter cuisine. Frisee aux lardons salad and brioche french toast , shakshuka , kafta benedict, and an "Au Za'atar Breakfast ," which is the restaurant 's "greatest strength."

We came for the chicken shawarma and it was delicious ♥️ make sure you are hungry as it’s so big it can feed up to 3 people.

This is one of the best Lebanese restaurants I’ve been too outside of Lebanon. Fine, delicate flavors. The baba ghanouj is Smokey, as I like it, the arnabeet divine, the meat heavenly. Mouthwatering.

The veggie mezze platter was incredible and enough for two! Also must get the dessert with pistachio banana and honey !

"falafel Benedict with spicy tomato sauce , or house-made hummus with shawarma . Or just keep it a la cate with chili shakshuka baked eggs or a croque monsieur "

The most amazing and sweet service - the food is otherworldly, and getting a bottle of champagne to share is definitely the move

The Bitches say: B. The offerings at Au Za’atar are flavorful and fresh. While the service has some kinks to be worked out, this is a good option for groups seeking casual brunch fare. Read more

We have been to Au Za'atar twice for brunch and dinner . Top of our list of amazing food service ambiance. Reservations recommended. Definitely 10 out of 10!

The chicken shawarma is the best I’ve had in New York, it can feed up to four people easily.

Brunch ! It's French and Arabian cuisine so everything sounds really interesting. Great service and take group reservations ! Good food but nice atmosphere mostly.

Grab 3+ people and go to town on the mezzes (especially the fried cauliflower ). Wine list includes a generous list of some very reasonably priced bottles.

Shawarma is wonderful, a sufficient entree for two persons. Great spot and super welcoming waiters .

Come here for brunch , they do a delicious take on eggs Benedict , with a spicy sauce instead of the usual. And the cauliflower is delicious.

Great shwarma available for large parties. Even though they say this feeds 2 people, don’t be fooled we were 6 and there was leftovers!

Food and service was great! I loved the dip sampler and lamb kebabs !Entree portions are big, you can definitely split one between two people.

Omg so good. I don’t like rice and theirs is amazing. Lamb was so tender and juicy. Riz Bi Haleeb was so light and delish.

Restaurant is usually empty but don't be scared! Nice staff , great Mediterranean / Moroccan food . A bit pricey but still good.

Great food, gyro machine right to ur table super service food is beyond delicious

Great food and service. Love the cauliflower , couscous , hummus - the complimentary dip is the best!

Amazing quality and selection. Very close to home cooking . Love the service, the sweetest people!

“The kebabs are juicy, and the eggplant-based saltet al raheb, a spicy-smoky condiment, is good enough to eat by the spoonful.” Read more

Definitely try the Lebanese Reds, the second one on the menu was great! + the best falafel I’ve ever had and lamb+hummus is a great mix.

Outstanding food. Omelettes and kabobs are awesome.

Great prices, excellent food! The owner was a sweetheart and served us complimentary baklava after a wonderful meal.

Fantastic wines . Everyone sits closely in here and enjoys the great food together. Terrific vegetarian food options too!

Lamb hummus is fantastic, but not an entree. Great to share between 2 people for an app or meze !

Greatest showarma in my life time, kind staff , cozy place

Service was great.. We had Shawrma it's amazing but kinda expensive 78$?

Great Lebanese ! Would definitely go back to try to the table side shawarma .

Definitely get the cauliflower ! Good babaganoush . Cute atmosphere and good service .

Grilled halloummi salad is unlike I've ever had before. Delicious

Stuffed grape leaves (with pomegranate reduction!?!?!), kebee, fries , and everything

Mezze platter is great, baba ganoush and toum were noms

Great food. Great prices. Nice staff . Recommend it!

Humus was good. Skip the mussels in wine souse with fresh tomatoes . Not filling even a bit

7.5/10. Hummus and sujuk flatbread are awesome.

Baba ghanoush was top notch- nice citrus flavor.

Everything is great! Service was excellent

Large portions , great hummus , delicious food

The mixed grill platter slowed down our entire table’s service by an hour.

Falafel and humus

The mussels are delicious!
