    Shawarma Lamb & Turkey
    Vivienne C.

    One of my friends swears by this place so I was very excited to try it out. After looking at the menu, you order by the side desk and then they will call your number to build your shawarma, sandwich, etc. When we went on a weekday night, there was quite a bit of people which I was very surprised about. I ordered a lamb + turkey laffa with every topping. I was surprised at how big the laffa was as it could've lasted me 2 meals. I appreciate the pickles as they were able to cut through the meaty and saucy-ness of the dish. I felt like the rest of the meats and toppings were pretty basic. I will say that because it is Kosher, the price is quite high - $22 per laffa - and if you don't eat Kosher normally not sure if it is super worth it. Overall, not a bad eat on UES but unfortunately because of the price, I'm not sure if I will be back.

    Grill Point is so delicious! I am sad I have not come here sooner, but happy to have found my new go to lunch/dinner place. Don't sleep on Grill Point- they're my new FAVORITE middle eastern restaurant in Manhattan! You choose your protein (lots of options for vegetarians and meat lovers!) then choose if you want a sandwich (pita or laffa) or as a bowl. Bowls can have a base of salad, rice, cous cous etc., The green falafels smelled amazing so I chose the falafel bowl. My friend had the young chicken shawarma , she said she doesnt even like shawarma but loved theirs after trying it off of her husband's plate. While your protein cooks, you choose your salads, The vegetables are also SO fresh and very well seasoned. There is no limit on how many you choose and no extra charge- so try them all! My favorites: fried eggplant, cabbage, beets and the Israeli salad! Bowls come with a fresh warm bread- choose between homemade laffa bread or pita. The falafels are very good, with a perfect garlicy flavor. It was a huge portion and I will definitely be back for more. They have a cooler with drinks to choose from, water, soda, juice and tea. I appreciated that they had peach snapple both diet and regular. While there are only two counter tops for bar seating inside, they also have an outdoor cabin and additional tables out front for outdoor dining. I will be back to try the chicken and laffa! I will say I had enough leftovers for lunch tomorrow and the flavors taste just as delicious cold as they so warm and fresh! Every bite was better than the next, my actual question is where are they sourcing their produce? Seriously the freshest sweetest tomatoes and onions I've had in a loong time. Really kind customer service, the owner Albert came by to check to see how everything was! When he thought I hadn't been given bread, he rushed to grab me some so quickly I barely had time to tell him that I has wolfed it down warm! Will be a struggle not to come back tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday - can already tell this falafel bowl is about to become an addiction.

    Grill Point on Lexington is very new. I went in to check it out one day when I saw someone sitting in the window. It turns out she was the receptionist and she immediately got up to greet me. I told her I wanted to photograph and check out the menu and she was receptive. This place has everything modern and sanitary. There's a unisex restroom and modern check out registers. You can sit at the windows on a stool or dine in the outdoor enclosed shed on the street. I found the menu moderately priced. There's plenty of variety and they are family conscious offering a kids menu. I thought the kids menu was pricey. The food is fresh and the cooks hard at work. They're not busy in the morning during the week. While I'm not familiar with many of the food items I intend to return to experiment. Until then I'll stick with the Avocado Smash and side salad.

    Marissa S.

    Had a bowl with schnitzel and some really delicious sides - like hummus, grilled vegetables, israeli salad. I was pretty impressed. only thing i didn't live was the laffa, which seemed kind of bland. I'd go back if i was in the mood for shawarma. probably wouldn't get the schnitzel again.

    Lilly R.

    Delicious! So much fun to eat at and the staff members are the sweetest! The chicken was crispy and the pita was warm and fully! Highly recommend if you're in the area!

    I have never had such a delicious shawarma before... Grill Point on Lexington has an amazing Mediterranean Israely food. I truly felt like being teleported to "Shook Hatikvvah" The food here is amazing. Every Pita is loaded, generous portions, great ingredients, fresh, delicious. Couldn't have enough of it. Totally and whole heartedly recommend

We ordered a bunch of appetizers to share and Mix Grill entrees for our party of 7. I would say it's a pretty simple and standard order. No deviations, substitutions, or anything out of the ordinary. Despite that, our drinks took ~20 minutes, the appetizers took 30+ minutes, and our entrees 30+ minutes after that. The Mint Lemonade was so small and tasted artificial. For ~$9, I expect more. The only appetizers worth trying are the Hummus Baba Ganouj, and Falafel. Everything else sadly missed the mark. The Fatoush & Tabouleh were promising but pretty sad. It lacked dressing (lemon and olive oil), flavor, and there were way too many unnecessary lettuce leaves on or around the bowl. I did enjoy the Zikrayat Mix Grill. The meats were tender, well-seasoned, and juicy, the rice was light and fragrant, and it was filling. I found the appetizers to be overpriced and along with the extremely slow service, I didn't leave feeling like it was worth it. I don't think I'll be back.

The food has always been freshly prepared, in large portions, and cooked quite well. I'm thankful that has not changed much. On my most recent visit, we got a Mix Grilled and Vegetarian Plate to share between four people. There was so much food that we did not have dessert next door as originally planned. Prices are higher nowadays, but you are receiving great value for what you pay. Both chicken shawarma and the beef kufta from the Mix Grilled tasted great, especially with the provided zesty white sauce. I also added hot sauce to mine, which made it more satisfying. The chicken kebab was not bad, it had a nice char, but slightly dry. All of the accompanying humus (a bit salty), salad, rice, and garlic pita were excellent too. For the Vegetarian Plate, though good, I would like the falafels to be fluffier. The best things I enjoyed on the plate was the fried eggplants and baba ghanosh. It also comes with cous cous, which was good. Fresh middle eastern cuisine, made with quality ingredients and care, this restaurant may not be my first choice in Astoria because it's not as sexy as some of the other offerings, but I'm glad that they are still around when I just want a quality meal at a reasonable price.

The kufta kebab was delicious, the accompanying salad was as well -- if I had any nitpick it was that I didn't necessarily love their house sauce and the combo of pita bread + french fries is perhaps a bit too many carbs for my liking. Besides that, this is a great neighborhood gem.

Right when we got seated, the manager brought us freshly prepared, piping hot pieces of Falafel. Very good and well prepared. Very nice of him. Then So I ordered myself their chicken shawarma. The chicken was a little dry but it was still flavorful and delicious. A little hint of Sumac. What I would recommend is management to take a little more precautions on their customers. We ordered their famous Mixed Feteer, which is basically like their house pizza. And it took about 20 minutes to make and I totally understand that it gets a little busy but we have to prioritize the first customers all the way to last. But I would love to give my love and appreciation to management for serving a complimentary plate of their house sweets. It was heaven! We had their Kunefa and chocolate baklava. Mouth was watering to the extreme. I would definitely say that giving Levant in Astoria is well worth the drive if you're coming from out of town like myself but they offer really high quality Lebanese and Egyptian cuisine.
