Very fun spin on Syrian and Korean foods. I enjoyed my falafel kimchi bowl. It was fun to see how the flavors would interact! I will be coming back. read more

SYKO is an all around worth-it foodie experience. The food is split into 3 menus: Syrian, Fusion, Korean. I was interested in the fusion food, so the co-owner's wife recommended we try the Labandu (pork dumplings covered in crispy chili oil over labne) and the Half Falafel Half Shawarma pizza (the pizza dough is actually a scallion pancake). Amazing recommendations - that Labandu dish is making us want to relocate to Brooklyn the fusion flavors work so well together. You can pinpoint the Middle Eastern flavors from the Korean flavors - the fresh labne from the spicy chili - and somehow they come together in a way that makes SO much sense. We walked in on a Saturday afternoon and were immediately immersed in what felt like a Middle Eastern and Korean grocery store. The walls are lined with items you'd only see if you were in a predominately Syrian or Korean populated area. There are 10 indoor seating spots and when it's nice out, 8 outdoor spots. Despite how busy the restaurant was, we were able to find a spot for our group with ease because a lot of people were getting take out. An all-around foodie experience, in a great part of Brooklyn, and TRUE fusion restaurant. As if the food wasn't fusion enough, the co-owner pointed to his Tri-lingual half-Syrian half-Korean boys and called them SYKOs looking forward to returning to try more items on the menu! read more

I think Syko used to be a bigger restaurant and market, but it feels like they've combined the two now? Don't quote me on that. I just loved this spot. After a long, exhausting walk around the Prospect Park loop, I was starving and wandered into Syko. We had no idea what to order, but the friendly cashier told us we couldn't go wrong with the chicken shawarma platter. He was absolutely right: It was a perfect sharing plate, so we added fries and hot sauce on the side. We decided to eat in, and honestly, it was the best food I have had in a while. The hummus? Chef's kiss. Who knew a Korean-Syrian mash-up could be this good? I didn't pick up any of the packaged foods or products from the market section this time around, but they had a great selection. I'll be back for sure. Maybe I'll pick up a few ingredients and attempt to try making my own chicken shawarma and hummus at home. read more

Syko - Shawarma Hummus Platter with Chicken - Syrian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Love the concept of the restaurant, which is Syrian and Korean fusion. We had the chicken shawarma platter, chicken Mandu, and the chicken shawarma hotteok. The rice and hummus for the shawarma were amazing; the chicken was good but needed a little bit more seasoning but it was still enjoyable. The Mandu was great, I wish I tried the beef ones. The habanero sauce the shawarma came with was so delicious and perfectly spicy. The hotteok was a little hard to eat as it was falling apart a bit but it was loaded and there were a bunch of different flavors and textures. I mostly tasted citrusy notes, but would have liked to taste more prominent Syrian and Korean flavors. There's very limited seating inside and it acts as both a grocery store and restaurant. The owner was kind and knowledgeable about the menu. I'd go back to try other items. read more

Syrian-Korean fusion near Prospect Park! Super casual spot, it's just counter service with a few seats (we lucked out and got the only big table inside). This is a combo I never thought to exist but it was yummy! Portions were big and you could probably split a lot of their items unless you're super hungry; it was a lot of food but the bites were pretty balanced and didn't feel too heavy. So many options for food (they have just Syrian, just Korean, and then Syrian-Korean fusion) but I would recommend the fusion stuff for something new. I got the shawarma hotteok -- hotteok was crispy and Loaded with shawarma and all the works. And then we got the bulgogi kimchi hummus and bulgogi muhammar for the table; they give you pita to dip. Solid dips (the muhammar was my favorite) and really big portion sizes, one is prolly good for 3-4 people to split as a side/appetizer. My friend spoke highly of their fatboy sandwich but they were out when we came (so I guess there shall be a next time). Citron honey slushie was also really good! read more

Place some of the best fusion Syrian and Korean food I have had. Unbelievably flavored fries. They are so crispy so crunchy and so delicious. I don't know what sprinkled on them but there's this purple seasoning that is so flavorful. Some of the best fries. We got Lamandu and sojak sandwich. They were recommended by the worker. The first is a tzatziki dumpling fusion recipe. So good to dip the bread and fries from the sojak sandwich. So creamy and thick. The sandwich was on some bread I've never tasted before. Fries were the hero for me. So many fun dipping sauces. All served hot. read more

In my experience many fusion restaurants don't quite nail it, but Syko does! I never realized that Syrian Korean fusion was missing from my life until I tried this. I really liked the shawarma pizza (although I will say it was a bit too loaded to eat like a normal pizza). The flavors were great, and I hope to try more items from their menu! read more

Unique and delicious! The place is really takeout but there are a few tables and chairs inside. The service is fast and you can watch the food being prepared. The menu is interesting, some Syrian dishes, some Korean dishes, and a fusion section, street food style. Everything is outstanding, lots of flavor, contrasting textures, and so tasty. Highly recommend this place! read more

A unique spot that has both Syrian, Korean and fusion of both on their menu. The food is delicious and I never expected to find something like this in Park Slope. I got the sujok sandwich which was great. Portions are huge which makes up for the price. Seating options are limited though and there are only 3 small areas to sit inside, they also have a table outside as well. Be warned there is no bathroom in this place, its more of a takeout spot. read more

The food looked and smelled so good we forgot to take a picture before diving in. Their fusion menu is fantastic. We recommend the Box Sampler. Note that this is definitely a take out place. While they have some seating, it is limited and we didn't see a restroom available for customers either. That said, you must try SYKO! Very delicious and unique. read more

Korean-Syrian food? Never heard of it and had to try it! Note this is more of a takeout place rather than sitting and dining - there is only one 3 person table inside and outside only 3 bar chairs. Like most, when I first saw the prices I was a little shocked. Two fat boys sandwiches paid in cash was $40! But once I got the food - oh boy they are LARGE portions. One fat boy can easily feed two people - so if you're trying to save money just buy one and split it between the two of you. I am also sure their pizza and combo plates could easily feed two as well. As a vegetarian, I appreciated all the vegetarian options. I got the tofu kimchi fat boy which consisted of outside being a thick scallion pancake and filling inside being fried tofu coated in cornstarch batter, kimchi, yellow pickled radish, lettuce and rice. It was extremely flavorful! And I loved the sauces that went along with it - if you love a little spice get the habanero sauce on the side (it's not just spicy it has almost a creamy element that I enjoyed greatly). It also came with gochujang sweet sauce and a more almost Chinese based chili oil sauce. I do wish the scallion pancake was more flaky (it's a little thick for my taste) but dipped in sauce was quite yummy. My husband got the beef bulgogi fat boy and loved it. You do save about 12-13 cents per item if you pay in cash, but they do accept card. Parking metered all around. read more

Now, for the "grab and go" reality check. The service is fast, so fast you might get whiplash from the sheer speed of your order being taken and fulfilled. You can even watch them whip up your food right there at the window, which is either fascinating or slightly terrifying depending on how hungry you are. But here's the kicker: the line. It can get long. We're talking "forming a small, hungry village" long. And once you've got your delicious bounty, don't expect to sprawl out in a plush armchair. There are very few seats, so embrace the "eat standing up like a sophisticated scavenger" vibe or plan to picnic on the nearest park bench. read more

Love this spot! It's a perfect fusion of two of my favorite cuisines. I tried the shish tawouk wrap and the crispy chicken kimbap. While the shish tawouk took some time to prepare, it was worth the wait--delicious with garlic sauce, seasoned fries, and pickles. The kimbap was just as good, and I really enjoyed it. Overall, a very good experience! read more

I stopped here while biking around Prospect Park and was looking to fuel up for an uphill ride while also checking off a spot on my bookmarks. list. This little Syrian Korean fusion spot really works with their limited space. They have only one indoor table and sometimes an outdoor table in decent weather months, but generally I'd say don't expect to dine in. The husband-wife owners are Syrian and Korean, and started with separate menus featuring each cuisine but have come to create fusion items that combine elements of both cuisines to make really delicious and creative dishes. Their fried chicken kimbap is a standout, with nicely crispy chicken wrapped in rice and seaweed which enhances both components. I also enjoyed the falafel wrap which featured pickled onions and really bright flavors. Solid falafel. Prices do seem a bit high for this small operation but I think the portions are big enough that the cost feels kinda justified. You can taste the love in the preparation that you don't get from mass produced food. They recently opened a market next door that's also worth checking out while you're there. Really appreciate places like these in NY that showcase different culinary heritages in a thoughtful way. read more

Amazing food! The fusion is so different and pair so well. I honestly had doubts. The pizza is definitely a must! The chicken poppers were great too! One of the owners was there and he was super nice and gave us his recommendations and even free chicken poppers! It is worth the trip to Brooklyn from literally everywhere. The place is small. Better for take out. Definitely will go back! read more

What can I say - this place is amazing! It satisfies the meat lovers but also the vegetarians. You have to come try it out yourself. I love the innovative Syrian + Korean fusion concept. The menu is divided into a Syrian side, a Korean side, and in the middle are the fusion options. The place is small and casual with 3 seating tables outside. We ordered: 1. Shish Taouk pita sandwich (fries inside) 2. Vegetarian platter (3 piece of falafel with 3 dip of your choice, fried cauliflower, grape leaf) 2. Syko shawarma pizza Everything was so good. What I love about the shish taouk sandwhich is they use this thin pita bread and it's toasted to such crispiness. I actually prefer this over the thicker softer pita. The vegetarian platter is every vegetarian's best friend. You can to pick 3 dips (I got the hummus, baba ghanoush, and spinach salad) as well as potato salad. The baba ghanoush is more on the smokier side which I like. Everything tasted very fresh. Now onto the highlight - the enormous Syko shawarmas pizza. My partner had ordered an entire pizza for himself despite the owner kept warning him it's a very sharable size. We certainly were amazed at how loaded the pizza was - you could barely even see the green onion pancake used as the pizza base crust. I love the crunch of the green onion pancake paired with the flavorful shawarma meat and refreshing pickled vegetables. If I wasn't watching my calories I will definitely eat one whole pizza on my own because it was so delicious. Honestly you can easily share this pizza with 4 people and all would be full. Needless to say, we had plenty to take to go for a second and third meal. What are you waiting for !? Come support this amazing establishment! read more

Had an amazing meal here yesterday. Really unique and incredible fusion. I love Syrian and Korean food. They had a pita type sandwich but instead of pita it was a Korean pancake. It was sooo delicious. All the sauces were home made and you could tell. The ingredients were also fresh and they put a good portion of meat in there. Also had some lentil soup which was delicious and not too salty, like many soups I've had. It was a little pricey, but that's the world we live in now. I don't mind it being a little pricey if you can really tell the ingredients are quality and they are making almost all the components in house. That takes time. Wish I lived closer, but this will be a go to spot every time I'm in the neighborhood. read more

My Husband and I accidentally found this place one day when we were looking for their other restaurant. I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!! Great atmosphere. The gentleman assisted me in making some choices on the things they have to offer, and I was not disappointed. Will definitely go there again. read more

Come on man, SYrian/ KOrean fusion? That's a first one for me. But the inside joke is that I thought the place was a lot more spacious, because when I walked in , I saw one table and another table against the wall with barstools and had to ask the owner "do you have another location ?", and he mentioned they have a market around the corner (which we went to right after the meal). So my 2 buddies and I ate off this small table with 3 chairs and managed to fit almost everything on the table (okay , there was no room for the drinks, napkins, plates ...just what we ordered haha) So what did we order ? We did their pizza , and couldn't make our mind on the shawarma or felaffel pizza so the brother gave us half and half and we couldn't be more please. Added the bite sized chicken in kbbq sauce and had the Muhammara... everything was absolutely bangin and they were really tending to our needs , getting us utensils and napkins as plates fell on the floor , some of the popcorn chicken casualties... it was one delicious hot mess and we loved it! If you're looking to dine in here, make sure NOT to order too much because it won't fit on the table but do order a lot if you're ordering take out...the fusion really works here ! read more

Syko was amazing! The chicken shawarma was juicy and full of flavor, and the lemon mint sushi was so refreshing. My boyfriend and I were glad we got to try it before the slushy machine gets put away for the fall, as the owner shifts to sundubu (Korean stews/soups) for the colder season. The baba ghanoush was creamy and delicious, and the sujok with cheese manousheh was packed with flavor. We were also given two dipping sauces--one garlic and one spicy--which paired perfectly with both the shawarma and the sujok. The owner was awesome--he gave great recommendations and kept checking in to make sure we were enjoying everything. The restaurant has turned into more of a deli/grocery setup, but there are still seats for dining in, which made the experience even cozier. Overall, it was such a great meal, and I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Ordered takeout from SyKo and wow, what a find! The Fatboy was out of this world. It's bold, savory, and super filling. I also tried the labneh sandwich and it was so fresh and tangy, the kind of flavor that makes you instantly happy. Pickup was quick and easy, and everything traveled really well, by the time I got home it was still hot and delicious. I love that you can get both Syrian and Korean dishes here, it feels like two amazing restaurants in one. Definitely a new favorite in the neighborhood. read more

Really good halal fusion spot -- Syrian + Korean! Sandwiches are a good size, and the service was great. If you're tired of the same old halal burgers or platters, this place is a nice change. A little pricey, but the flavor makes up for it. read more

The owners were so nice, so attentive, and so helpful. The concept of Syrian Korean fusion is genius. One of the owners was sure to let us know we could do half half on our scallion pizza and when we weren't too sure about if we'd like the falafel, they other owner offered us some falafel and hummus to try before we made up our minds. Safe to say, we ended up going halfsies on the scallion pancake pizza. It was HEAVY with all the garnishing and meats and extras. If you're sharing with a friend or two it becomes a very affordable meal. We also got one of the burritos which was LOADED. These guys do not skimp. Truly a special place! read more

I... really wanted to love Syko. To begin, the service was kind and exceptional. I love the story of the fusion of Korean and Syrian cuisine and how this restaurant came to be, and appreciate how the restaurant organizes its menu. Syko is definitely a take-out restaurant, and there is very limited seating inside and has a few seats outside. I wouldn't come here with a big group unless you were planning to do take-out. I really wanted to love the food and researched what to order before visiting, but left disappointed. I got the Fat Boy bulgogi wrapped in a scallion pancake (on the Korean menu), as well as the Shawarma Pizza (on the fusion menu). Fat Boy 3.5/5: It is a really great concept but I found elements of this order lacking. The scallion pancake wrap was a bit overcooked or possibly stale, and at certain points was hard to physically bite through. The bulgogi was good, though it could have been more flavorful. I enjoyed the pickled yellow carrot and thought that added great acidity and wish there had been more of that. I was perplexed and did not enjoy the rice that was included in the wrap, as the scallion pancake was already very thick. Shawarma Pizza 2/5: Visually, it's a beautiful looking pizza pie with lots of different colors. Unfortunately, I could not tell that the meat on the pizza was shawarma, as it felt overcooked and flavorless. I also don't know that the pizza really combined Korean inspired ingredients and Syrian inspired ingredients in the most thoughtful way. It had a lot of visual impact but wasn't as enjoyable for me overall. read more

Got the chicken poppers, chicken shwarma sandwich with fries, and crispy chicken kimbap. Total came up to about $80 which feels like a lot considering the portion sizes. The chicken poppers were our favorite, the sauce was and they were very crispy. The sandwich was a bit dry but it came with a sauce on the side that made it a lot better. Service was fairly quick considering how busy they were and the food was all very hot read more

The grocery part of this store has interesting quality products. But be ready for surprises at the cash register, as it's common to be charged higher than the cash/credit prices listed and be told "Apologies, the prices have gone up." They need to do better at updating the posted prices. read more

Small, mainly takeout spot serving up some big flavors. Came here on a weekday after a run with a friend. One of the owners was nice enough to walk us through the menu, and explanied the Syko stands for SYrian and KOrean. Given that, we opted to get something fusion, as well as one of the Korean dishes. Even though the bulgogi fatboy was labelled as Korean, it definitely is a Korean American fusion. It's 2.5 lbs of a hulking sandwich, with rice and bulgogi encased in a scallion pancake. The fusion dish we tried was the falafel pizza, which was a crispy scallion pancake as the base, topped with homemade labneh, cucumber kimchi, and homemade falafel. While we thought the fatboy was big, when we weighed the pizza we realized it came out to over 3 lbs! Both of the dishes were delicious and full of flavor, although my friend and I both agreed we gave the pizza a slight edge. The prices are a little on the higher side, especially for a takeout place, but it felt pretty fair given the huge portions. One dish alone could easily feed two. Definitely stop by here if you're craving either Korean or Syrian, or just looking for something new. I can see this being a great spot in the summer as well, so you can takeout to Prospect Park. read more

Delicious Korean Syrian fusion food. Very big portions that will fill you. I always share an entree with my boyfriend and we are FULL. Love the sauces they give as well. Great service but typically at least 20+ minutes wait so order ahead on their site! Only outdoor dining or takeout available. read more

Right by prospect park, this spot is a must try! They do take out only but they do have a small outdoor dining area to eat if that's what you'll like. First time coming here and I decided to get the Bulgogi Fatboy which was a korean pancake with bulgogi as the stuffing wrapped together with radish, rice, lettuce and sauce. Our chef absolutely PACKED it, that he could barely even wrap it and had to double wrap. And needless to say that it was a delicious meal! I was basically stuffed eating just half of the wrap. 100% a must try if in the area and myself will definitely be coming back to try something else! read more

My friend brought takeout from Syko, and it was quite a memorable and tasty meal. The falafel pizza was unlike anything I've had before. Very dense and messy. You're going to need to use a fork. Pieces of toppings were quite large, so it was clumsy at times. I dig the crust! More traditional, the shawarma hummus was very good and flavorful. I wish it had come with pita, though. The fatteh cauliflower is big! Brown pieces and lots of chickpeas. Also very good. Everyone loved the fried crispy chicken kimbap. Great textures and flavor. Chicken bulgogi, served in lettuce cups with rice, was surprisingly hearty. I'd eat all my vegetables this way. We topped it off with Syrian shrimp. Very good though not as mind blowing. Definitely check this spot out! read more

not only is the food phenomenal, but the concept of it being Korean, but also Syrian and fusion is a huge part of why I love this place so many things for both sides of the menu have the fries are great and so are the dumplings get you're going to have a great meal. The service was just amazing to be honest. I might wish the restaurant was slightly bigger, but it just is so good and I promise I'm not overreacting. Even the atmosphere is great hands-down recommend read more

Syko has a very uneven mishmash of flavors. Some fresh, some stale, and mostly very, very, very heavy food. It's greasy. I wish they would balance better with the fresh or pickled elements and have a lighter hand on the bulked-up rice and starches. Some people like huge portions but I would settle for more finesse and less food. Some of these so-called "Elite" reviews have a very fake ring to them. read more

Great neighborhood spot made by the neighborhood! I first went in the summer and loved the seasonal nangmyun cold noodle soup. The brine of the icy broth was just what I needed in the hot brooklyn sun. I recently returned this winter with my friend visiting from Seoul and we split the fusion falafel bowl and baklava. The hummus and falafel were good and really paired well with the fresh cucumber kimchi. The family running SYKO are very friendly. There is not really seating available, better to grab your food and go have a picnic in prospect park! read more

This is a really wholesome hole in the wall that has both Korean and Syrian food. Such a great addition to the neighborhood. Japchae - very light and refreshing taste. A little oily, but does not have any heavy taste to it at all Korean pancake - on the oilier side but fresh, crispy, and super tasty Kimbap - filled up! Really filling because they pack it so much, but also a little oilier than most Kimbaps I've had Muhamara - just what im looking for when im craving the dip! It's light, refreshing and savory. Goes well with their pita bread read more

It is a tiny place. I keep coming back for bulgogi kimbap. It is best to take takeout because it is not much place to eat inside. Although during the summer I think they have some tables outside.

Syko - Bulgogi Kimbap - Syrian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Wow. This was amazing. The chicken poppers were phenomenal. The portions were HUGE. Really delicious food.

Very good and unique dishes. I had the beef bulgogi kimbal and it was great. Would definitely recommend.

After wandering around the streets of Brooklyn aimlessly for a couple miles, I decided it was probably best to grab a bite before catching my flight home. I searched to see what's nearby and Syko immediately caught my attention, so I made my way towards the nearest subway station to get to Windsor Terrace. At first I thought Syko offered fusion Syrian-Korean food, but once I entered the small shop and looked up at the menu, I realized that this place serves Syrian and Korean eats separately. Nice - no complaints here. The two guys behind the counter greeted me. I asked the Asian guy for recommendations on Syrian fare as I sheepishly commented that I already had a Korean meal the previous night. He pointed to the other man saying he handles all the Syrian dishes and after asking me a few questions, they both exchanged a few words before suggesting a sandwich for me. I agreed without even thinking twice. We chatted for a bit and I quickly discover that he opened up this restaurant with his friend, turned brother-in-law and now business partner. Seriously, what are the odds - that's too awesome. Goodness, I just love hearing these types of stories. Chicken Labne Sandwich - a generous portion of chicken, pickles, labne aka "yogurt cheese" essentially strained yogurt with a cream cheese consistency all rolled nicely into a wrap and grilled to perfection. This is a very hearty sandwich chock full of flavor. The acidity from the pickles was a welcoming addition to the savory chicken and tangy labne. I was actually not super hungry, but managed to devour the entire sandwich. It was just that delicious. Za'atar Pie - this was one of the specials of that day and I considered ordering it at first, but changed my mine when I saw the size of the flatbread. I was watching the Syrian guy make this. He took a round flatbread, smeared za'atar (an herbal spice mixture with sumac and sesame seeds) over it like spreading tomato paste on pizza dough. Then he topped it with some fresh cucumber sticks, sliced tomatoes and sprigs of mint. I remarked that it looked good and he said, "This is my breakfast". Mind you, it's 2:45 pm, but I believed him and exclaimed, "Oh my gosh, you should definitely eat then!" because I figured when you're in the restaurant business you just don't have time to eat at regular intervals. He proceeded to cut the pie like a pizza, scooped half of it into a container and then handed it to me with a grin. I looked at him quizzically, but he continued to extend his arm further and said "Try it" so of course I had to accept with a very grateful heart. This is a delectably light appetizer - flatbread with the dynamic blend of ingredients that evokes a multitude of flavors and textures, accompanied by refreshing toppings. Syko is still fairly new having just opened in the latter part of July this year (I visited in late September). Closed on Mondays, their hours of operation are Tuesdays to Sundays from 11:00 am to 9:00 pm. There are two small tables with chairs outside, but I had my meal inside at the short counter facing the window (wide enough to fit two to three stools). The left side wall contains an aesthetically pleasing mural depicting Korean and Syrian culture as well as a bit of history on when both groups arrived in NYC. Seeing the variety of trinkets and wall décor made me fondly reminisce about my stint in Korea 10 years ago. So, come one, come all to check out the friendly duo's neighborhood eatery. No time to wait on their made-to-order food? Grab some Binggrae (producer of the popular Korean banana milk) or Laziza (Lebanese unfermented aka non-alcoholic malt beer) to go with your japchae (Korean stir-fried glass noodles) or muhammara (Syrian red pepper and walnut dip). You won't be disappointed with either the Korean or Syrian cuisine here. Seriously wish I had another stomach just to try their Korean home fries or even the Korean spam sandwich. I can't wait to come back with my partner - that's literally what I told these guys before I left. read more

After spending a few months wondering when I was going to next be in the area, we finally ordered delivery from Syko for dinner on a recent rainy evening. I could have easily gone overboard with the food but limited us to two dishes: the Falafel Pizza and the Crispy Chicken Kimbap. The pizza was definitely the stand out for me. The fusion of flavors was surprising but delicious. I would have preferred just a bit less labneh (saying this as a labneh super fan), only because the weight of the toppings did impact the pizza's integrity. That said, I just grabbed a fork and continued on. As for the Crispy Chicken Kimbap, this was also very good but not incredibly crispy - likely my own fault since I do live a few neighborhoods over. I'd try it again if I'm able to pick the food up on my own. I also can't wait to try the Spam Sandwich next time I order. If you're looking for a unique dining experience, Syko is definitely worth a visit. read more

EAT HERE!! So much of the fusion food in NYC are just less-than-great versions of whatever cuisines they're fusing together, but not SYKO! This is maybe one of my top spots in Brooklyn at the moment. I've been wanting to try Syko for months now, but I live across the park making it difficult to get to transit wise. IT WAS SO GOOD! We got the tea (it's free and delicious and amazing), the falafel pizza, and kibbeh. Every single bite was fresh, delicious, and flavorful. The owners are so sweet, and I really enjoyed speaking with them and learning more about how they're growing the restaurant. I will be back again, and again, and again (I ate here yesterday & currently plotting if I should go back again today). read more
