A solid casual Mediterranean grab-n-go place! Definitely a good deal for the amount of food you get. If you work in healthcare, don't forget to show your badge/ID for a 15% discount! You have the option of picking between a bowl, a wrap, or a salad with one protein option. I got a bowl with a mix of their traditional rice and quinoa. Their juicy and tender lamb meatballs were packed with spices/seasoning. There are options to add more protein with an additional cost. For toppings, the toum dip was creamy with strong garlic flavors. The baba ganoush nicely seasoned but a little too liquidy for my liking. The hummus and feta were appropriately seasoned with a nice thick texture, perfect for pairing with their complimentary pita bread. Vegetables were fresh, although I wish they at least had one cooked veggie topping option. Service was quick on a weekday just after lunch hours. Staff were pretty nice. Limited standing tables with maybe one or two tables outside.

Beef Shawarma with a very minimal rice base (and not that much shawarma either) Still hungry

Gorgeous upscale dinner spot in midtown! We came as a group of 7 and were seated comfortably, lots…read moreof room within the restaurant. Great place to share several food items with a group. It was a little hard to hear and converse at times as it gets crowded, but the food was delicious and there are really unique items on the menu. Food: The duck shawarma was one of our favorites! The lamb and scallops were also flavorful and tender. The dips were delicious with the pita, but I wish the serving size for the dips were bigger. The fries were great - well seasoned! Also recommend the milky pudding, it was a nice refreshing way to end the dinner. Service: Our server was super helpful in letting us know what items are more shareable and his suggestions for cocktails. Definitely try some of the arak based cocktails. Vibe: Gorgeous interior, the mirrors and lighting really elevates the space and makes it a lovely spot for group dinners or dates.

The cocktails were also really interesting and delicious. I highly recommend the lamb shank, fries, and octopus but I can't imagine there is any way to go wrong. The lighting inside the restaurant was cozy and relaxing. My family and I had a great time. Our server was super helpful with our order and very nice to talk to. Highly recommend. Really delicious.

My friends and I arrived fairly early on Friday to dine in for brunch/lunch. We were greeted warmly…read moreby the cashier who told us to sit. The seating area is fairly small, which surprised me. We ordered the crispy garlic rice, the Piri Piri chicken sandwich, and the famous knefeh and chicken pancake. The server was so nice, she offered us a sample of the seasonal lemonade, which had rose water and turmeric. It did take a little bit of time for all the food to come out. We chit-chatted while we shared the garlic rice (a little crunchy, very mild) and the chicken sandwich. The PiriPiri sandwich came with a huge piece of fried chicken that was spiced and fried well. The chicken was juicy and not super dry. The little bit of pickled cabbage helped keep things from becoming too greasy. After a bit of wait, the pancake was served. It was such a fun experience with the crunchy kadayif noodles and the cheese hidden underneath a super fluffy pancake. The salty and cheesy flavors of the pancake went well with the rose maple syrup. The spice from the chicken added another note to the dish that made it such a great combo of flavor. I could not stop picking at this huge pancake. It's definitely meant to be eaten by at least two, if not three. If we had known, we probably wouldn't have ordered the other chicken sandwich. Overall the contrast in the chicken and knafeh pancake alone was enough to want me to visit again. The textural crunch, the melted pull of the cheese, the sweet syrup against salty and spicy flavors of the chicken. Not only was the whole presentation beautiful, but the dish itself tasted amazing. I would visit Hen House again for the experience.

All I had heard about Hen House was their cozy, innovative dishes and was excited to go. They're…read moreknown for their falafel and other creative flavors and I went with the staple shawarma plate. It was served with lackluster presentation, standard ingredients, and lack of creative flair I was expecting and heard about.

Fattoush is one of those rare restaurants where you can truly taste the care, love, and integrity…read morein every dish. Every ingredient feels intentional and high quality. The fig hummus is something special. Smooth, perfectly balanced with tahini, and unlike anything I've had before. My brother called it the best hummus he's ever had, and honestly I licked the plate clean! The falafel plate deserves its own moment. Warm, crispy on the outside, perfectly moist on the inside, and just the right amount of richness. Paired with the sauce, fresh salad, and rice, it was easily one of the most memorable meals I've had this year. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and thoughtfully put together. Truly some of the best falafel I've ever had. What really took the experience to another level was the service. After we paid, our waitress noticed I had blisters from breaking in new shoes and brought me two bandaids without me even asking. That kind of attention to detail is rare, if I could give 6 stars I would! They are also incredibly accommodating with dietary needs. When the waitress heard my brother was gluten free, she immediately brought out a new plate with double salad instead of rice. Fattoush goes above and beyond in every way. An unforgettable meal and experience. I cannot recommend it enough. I will absolutely be back to try more. Also a beautiful & quiet place to sit with friends or family. We made some very special memories here and laughed into the night.

Solid Lebanese food, started off with the Hummus and Pita which were nice. I like that they grilled…read morethe pita and had a bit of char on one side because I just love food with a good bit of char. Hummus itself was really smooth and tasty. Got the Shish Tawouk for the main and the chicken was very very tender. With the toum especially it was delish, plus the grilled veggies and the bed of bread. It was supposed to come with rice though and I asked about the rice twice and it still never came so I just gave up on it but whatever it was still good.
