The ramen was ok. I wished the broth was hotter and that the meat was more tender. As for the ambience, there was no music and the place seemed very plain. All you could hear was the sound of plates being cleared and light chatter from other customers. I came here for the convenience as it's located near lots of places of interest and trains but there are places with better food and service.

Besides Milos, I never expected Hudson Yards to have such a fantastic Mediterranean restaurant!…read more The Dip Tower was definitely the MVP. Every single dip was so delicious I wanted to take some home. The layers of flavor were amazing, and it was impossible to stop eating it with the freshly baked pita! The Yellowtail was rather ordinary. Although it contained a lot of spices, the fishy taste was still noticeable, so I wouldn't recommend it. The other dishes--North African eggs, steak, and Brussels sprouts--were just okay. The biggest surprise was the dessert--Lemon Frozen Yogurt! It was so delicious I wanted another serving!! The acidity was just right, refreshing without being too sweet. A bite after the meal was incredibly soothing. I must say, Mediterranean people really know how to make yogurt; they can make even a simple frozen yogurt look amazing.

A lively, upscale-casual…read moreMediterranean restaurant in a somewhat unexpected location, but they more than make up for it with atmosphere, energy, and some seriously memorable dishes. Not every plate was a hit, but the standouts were SO good that we'd absolutely return. We made a 6:30 PM Saturday reservation to celebrate our sixth wedding anniversary. I'll admit, the location initially threw me off. It has a somewhat corporate feel, tucked between buildings near the Lincoln Tunnel Expressway on Manhattan's West Side. But once you're there, the buzzing patio and lively atmosphere win you over. Great for date night, dinner with friends, business meals, large groups, or a pre-event meal. A wide age range and a crowd that feels like it's hitting on all cylinders. Bonus points for a thoughtful anniversary card waiting for us when we sat down. Such a sweet touch! We skipped cocktails after a full afternoon of drinking, but more than made up for it with the food. The menu is designed for sharing. What we ordered: * Fattoush salad | 3/5: A creative spin on the classic, topped with pita, thinly sliced Honeycrisp apples, and candied pecans. The apples and especially the pecans overwhelmed the dish for me. I'd love to see more vegetables and fewer sweet toppings. Prefer a traditional fattoush, but this was fine. Need 1/4 the amount of pecans given * Tuna tartare | 1/5: Unfortunately, the one miss of the evening. The description with cucumber, figs, and cardamom sounded incredible, but the dish fell completely flat. The cucumber purée had an almost gel-like texture, and the tuna didn't taste fresh to us. We sent it back. More acidity, spice, and sumac could help, but the freshness and texture were the bigger issues. * Octopus carpaccio | 5/5: STUNNING. I usually gravitate toward a cooked octopus tentacle, but this preparation with fennel absolutely won me over. One of my favorite dishes of the night. * Pita: Thick, soft, and delicious. We went through two baskets! An excellent vehicle for the dips and appetizers, but honestly good enough to enjoy on its own. * Little gems | 3/5: Served with za'atar crumbs and roasted grapes. The grapes initially threw me off, but the combination worked surprisingly well. A creative salad I really enjoyed, but $19 for some leaves, breadcrumb & grapes is pushing it * Manti | 5/5: Little wonton-like dumplings stuffed with spiced beef, served over garlicky labneh with oven-dried tomatoes. Absolutely delicious. A must-order for us. * Crispy latkes | 5/5: Everyone should order these. Perfectly crispy with a lovely thyme finish. An excellent side that deserves its own spotlight. * Charred broccoli: A very generous portion served with cashew harissa that packed some heat. So tasty that I accidentally ate the entire side myself... oops. Bottom line: Zou Zou's is worth a visit for the atmosphere alone, and do need to return to have actual entrees. The tuna tartare was a miss, and the fattoush wasn't my favorite, but the octopus carpaccio, manti, latkes, and broccoli more than made up for it. Add in thoughtful service touches and a lively, versatile setting, and we left happy.

Every time we go in, really nice folks that run the place! Service goes the extra mile to make sure you have a great meal! Inside it's small but clean....sometimes we eat there, sometimes we take it to go. Getting hungry just thinking about it and sadly I live on the west coast, so I have to wait about 6 months to get this again! Anyone who loves writing a 1 hour drive to Manhattan...I'm jealous!

We came here on a Wednesday night around 8pm and waited for about 30 minutes. I think it's also nice that you can grab a spot in the area to sit and eat afterwards. We ordered the spicy chicken over rice & lamb over rice since they seem to be the popular items here. The portions are HUGE for a reasonable price and I completely understand the hype now. The food is delicious, but it's super rich & heavy so it's not an everyday kind of meal...at least, not for me. It definitely hits the spot when you're craving for legit halal food though.

Get both the green sauce and the spicy red sauce--they elevate the entire dish to another level. The portions are HUGE, there's plenty of meat, and the prices are incredibly affordable for how much food you get. The combination of flavorful rice, juicy chicken, and those sauces makes this seriously satisfying street food. I can't wait to go back and try their lamb! Service is quick, but be prepared for a looooong line. We went around midnight and still waited about 30 minutes, which is apparently a relatively short wait here! It's a classic NYC halal food stall, with no-frills street-food vibes and food that absolutely delivers. Come hungry, get both sauces, and don't let the line scare you off!

We ordered the chicken sandwich with everything and the beef platter with yellow rice, and OMG... it was incredible! These guys are clearly commanding the halal food scene, and after finally trying it, I completely understand the hype. The food was flavorful, satisfying, and exactly what we needed at that moment. There's something about eating a great late-night meal straight from NYC food cart that just hits differently. I will say, my sandwich was VERY spicy.
