    Really solid place. Very clean, extremely nice staff, and food was good. I got the Shawarma wrap and I was very happy. Also convenient location

    Chicken Shawarma pita
    Jina P.

    Came here upon seeing the rave reviews. Upon entering, you are hit with a strong aroma of grilled meats. I got a chicken schwarma pita sandwich and it was super delicious. There are also many tables in the back for seating. Would definitely come back for a quick, affordable meal!

    Lamb, mixed vegetables and hot sauce.

    I didn't know what to make of the multi-genre approach on the sign, as I can have Everclear-esque skepticism of being everything to everyone, but my lamb dish was so good that next time I'm confident that picking anything randomly would work. The mixed vegetables provided a way better than usual side dish, and it's always great to find a new variety of hot sauce. Service was quick and friendly. Subway-adjacency was helpful on this frigid night.

    Incredible rice and lambs too. Everything there is fresh the place is super clean and I also got spicy fries with it and it was the best portion where I had lunch and dinner with one plate. I came again the next day and I don't know what's up with the Yelp and not letting me put up another review but I ended up getting some more food and take more pictures

    Kemo's is a Yemeni deli and grill about a block away from Atlantic Terminal and Barclays Center. They serve typical deli sandwiches, burgers, and wraps, but also have shawarma freshly sliced from the spit, and lots of other typical Middle East staples like falafel, tabbouleh, and hummus. The main attraction here though is the Yemeni cuisine, some of which is served from a steam table and some made to order. The options are pretty extensive here, including lamb haneeth, lamb kabsa, fahsah, and chicken mandi. They even have Yemeni breakfast items like lamb liver. When I walked in there were several tables with Yemeni folks eating a variety of delicious-looking dishes. The interior is very clean and the staff are super friendly. Excellent option for some quick and tasty food before or after a game or concert at Barclays or a trip from Atlantic Terminal.

    Chicken Shawarma H3 . Hummus With Chicken Shawarma

    The first thing you see when you walk in is fresh ingredients. We ordered the chicken shawarma bowl and the hummus platter with chicken shawarma which came with warm pjta bread. Upon looking at the rest of the food, we were temped into getting the spaghetti (which did not disappoint). Overall, food was 10/10! Price was reasonable and the establishment was clean. Would love to come back here again and try the lamb next!

    Just started taking the food out.

    Friendly staff and a great spot if you want to eat or have a smoothie! You can sit in the back to relax and wait for your order. You can also eat there as well. It's comfortable too. I ordered a Tribeca smoothie and a Summer in NYC juice! Both were excellent!

    This was a local spot that was a mix of local and modern with quality authentic kebabs. I had the chicken shawarma with the pita the chicken was so tender and perfectly seasoned. The veggies are crisp and fresh and add a perfect balance of tartness and freshness to the heartiness of the chicken. The pickled red cabbage and pickle cucumbers were great veggie options that were rare options that are not normally offered. The interior offers ample inside seating and is painted very hip and asthetically pleasing. This place is very obviously family run so go support them and get some great eats.

    This is everything vegan food should be - creative and satisfying…read more Bold flavors, a thoughtfully curated menu, and ingredients that are allowed to shine. The bowl was packed with flavor and made with some of the best, freshest ingredients. And the mac & cheese? Creamy, delicious, and completely vegan. It lacked absolutely nothing except, you know, the animal products.

    Aunts et Uncles: Vegan food that doesn't need a disclaimer…read more Baby, that loaded baked potato?! One of the best things I've eaten at a vegan restaurant. Period. A strong 9.5/10, and I don't hand those out casually. The peanut butter cauliflower was a close second--absolutely delicious, just a little pricey for the portion. The lasagna was a solid 8/10. Flavorful and hefty despite its lighter ingredients. Unless you're skipping appetizers, prepare for leftovers. Fair warning: it's saucy and doesn't travel particularly well. I also noticed an aftertaste I couldn't quite identify, but nothing that ruined the dish. The mac and cheese? A 6/10 for me. The flavor fell flat, though my dinner companions thought it was decent for vegan food. They also loved their burger and the gorgeous steak-style sandwich with chimichurri and avocado. The sandwich looked delicious, but the portion didn't quite justify the price for me. Now, the sorrel cocktail? A 9/10. Easily. What would make it a 10? A bit more alcohol. I couldn't really taste any. It gave mocktail. My girls did enjoy their wine, though! Service was very warm and friendly, although the packed crowd meant extended waits once we placed our orders. The space is beautiful, cozy, and elevated, but cramped in many areas. Between counter ordering and table service, expect people moving around you. Some patrons could use a gentle reminder that their behinds are not a complimentary side dish. The aesthetics are beautiful, the bathroom was cute and clean, and there's a small outdoor patio out front. They even had a DJ bringing block-party energy during our visit! I could easily see myself returning for breakfast, brunch, or a little café workday. What I love most, though, is the community-centered spirit and how the owners' partnership and love story are woven into the space. My final word: I judge vegan food by the same standards as everything else. No participation trophies just because it's plant-based. My ultimate test? Would I order it again, and would I return to the restaurant? Aunts et Uncles didn't need a vegan consolation prize or watered-down standards. Some dishes could use tweaking, and the portions don't always match the prices, but the standouts absolutely hold their own against non-vegan food. I'm already plotting my return. That loaded potato and I have unfinished business.

    The place has character for sure! Seating inside or out. I arrived early - around 8 - so it was…read morebusy but mostly to-go orders. I'm sure with a later time, it would be busier. I ordered an avocado bagel on seven grain. It was all delicious. There was lettuce and cucumber that was not listed on the menu, but that's ok. The whole thing had a lemony flavor that normally I don't like, but it went well with the other flavors. The egg was over medium, which they didn't ask me how I wanted, but I'm sure they'd change it if you asked. They were very responsive, polite, and quick.

    Cafe Madeline is a fun brunch spot with a cozy atmosphere but it defs can get super busy. If you…read morecan, come early to beat the brunch rush. The setup is a little different from a full-service restaurant. You order at the counter, let the staff know if you're dining in or getting your order to go. If dining in, then find a table and wait for your name to be called. If you're seated farther away, they'll usually bring your food to you. For drinks, it's best to stay near the baristas towards the front of the store since those are typically called out separately. I ordered the Madeline omelette without the jalapeños. It was good overall but it could have used a little more salt. I also tried the matcha latte (which tasted a bit too milky) and I had to add extra sweetener, so I'd probably try a different drink next time. The pastries, especially the apple strudel and Boston cream donut, were both really good. Highly recommend the apple strudel.
