Went for lunch. Cute place with nice vibe, had to wait a little to get seats at a very wobbly table. Staff was nice and friendly. Part of the reason we came was because we knew they had a gluten free menu,...Read More

Great place and good Israeli menu. The Shakshuka was surprisingly good and served hot. The Malawach was also pretty tasty and served with tahini and tomato sauce (needed more for this size). The falafel was hard and not great. Service was a little slow. Service Dine in Meal...Read More

One of my favourite spots in Harlem. The food and vibe is on point, with the music downstairs as an added, brilliant, bonus. An easy routine is dinner upstairs followed by a few drinks with live music downstairs. Can’t go wrong. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $30–50 Food:...Read More

Love the food but pricey. They do a great job to explain the food and also take some customization. The staff can take a bit of effort to be more friendly or smile:). Ambience is great especially in the evenings. We order and eat in...Read More
