Andrea H.

In a city that has food trucks on every street... this is hands down the best one. I was told that if you are on Madison Ave, this is a must and I 100% agree. At lunchtime there's a long line but you can order ahead and pick up. If you aren't in a time crunch, go after 2. 62nd & Madison is in the heart of some of the city's best shopping and businesses, so you will see all types of people lined up to eat some of the best Mediterranean food around. It's so close to the park, you can walk over, grab a bench and have lunch outside on a nice day. Only open until 6:00 on weekdays and 5 on Saturday, plan your stop accordingly. Chicken Pita was fabulous! Tons of flavor. The warm pita was just crispy enough to hold the generous amount of fresh chicken, tomatoes, and onions with one of the best Tzatziki sauces on top. Mediterranean Chicken Pita is also stuffed with delicious grilled chicken breast, lettuce, tomato, onion, and adds olives, feta and a nice vinaigrette on top. Portions are big, but don't be surprised if you finish the whole thing because every bite is so good, you wont want to stop. Plenty of choices on the menu, if you haven't been, you must ty this.

Pork soulvaki

This is hands down the best food cart. I have tried numerous food carts. Tony's dragon grille is one the best I have tried. No wonder there is always a long line for the order. On weekday at around 1pm. I saw more than 10 teams ahead of me. Took about 20 minutes to order and 10 minutes to recieved the order. If you go during their peak time, be prepared to wait a while. Parking around there is not convinient. All the adjacent roads are for commercial parking only until 7pm. If you drive, you might have some hard time finding a parking. The ticket polices are very active in this neighborhood. (I got a ticket). I ordered 3 bowls, steak and chicken bowl, pork soulvaki and grilles shrimp greek salad. Rice- very flavorful and tasty. Rich in herb. soft. Portion is a lot. Meats- used to be bigger in portion.. Chicken- well cooked. Mix of dark and white meats. Very tender. Goes well with the white sauce. Steak- it was little dry without the sauce, but great with white sauce. Kind of lean meat. Seasoned well Veggie- very fresh. Loved greek salad with bit of citrus taste. Shrimp- nothing too special. Very tender Make sure to ask for the lemon sauce! Goes well with any meat

Baby roach next to lettuce

Found a baby ROACH at the bottom of my rice bowl. And you know what that means? That means I didn't make this horrific discovery until *after* I made my way through all the food. That's right, I found this after I ate everything. To make matters worse I shared that bowl with my partner, who had never had Tony's before. Ironically we were even talking about how good the food was when suddenly I went still over the discovery. As if all of this wasn't enough, my experience in picking up the food was lackluster as well. I had ordered ahead for pickup since I came during the lunch hour on a weekday, and had a meeting to attend when I got back to work. In spite of this my order came out after my coworkers', who had stood in line. I didn't end up getting to eat the food since I got back to work when my meeting began, which was the whole reason I ended up sharing it later in the evening with my partner. Came here three times, never coming back again. I don't care how much we all know that NYC is crawling with roaches and rats - I should never see one in my food.

There's tomatoes stuffed in my chicken, lettuce wrap, and I'm allergic.

This place is great for lunch or dinner however, they do not listen. I come here on my break to get a chicken wrap with lettuce and onions. Every single time I have to head back to the location to return my meal due to the fact that they always place tomatoes and I'm allergic. I believe this is unacceptable because I specifically tell them I'm allergic and it seems like they don't care. I totally get it. I'm black on Madison Avenue where Tony dragon grille and his team are more attentive towards white customers. It's sad because I spent $15-$20 every day to get bullshit service. Listen, it is what it is for now on when I purchase I'm going to open chicken lettuce wrap in front of them. I don't want no surprises, especially if I'm allergic! Please do better!

Headed over here on a Saturday afternoon for lunch in the neighborhood. Surprisingly open despite it not being the usual work crowd, with no line in front of the truck to order. Plenty of options to choose from here regarding meats, platters, sandwiches, salads, and the like. Settled on the Pork Souvlaki Pita ($9) and a Snapple ($2); ready within several minutes of placing the order. Pita is warm and soft, but toasted outside in order to keep firm over all the ingredients. Inside is a generous amount of chunky pork, tomatoes, and onions smothered in tzatziki sauce. Meat is really juicy and the tzatziki is enough to balance out the pita without being too soggy. Only complaint is that the spice level is lacking, so wish I had ordered a sauce as well (believe this is extra). Perfect place to grab a meal on the way to the park.

Tony Dragon's Grille is a staff favorite. We often order group lunch from Tony's and we even send our customers to the truck.

The food is incredible and the service is top-notch in a setting that immerses you in Albanian history and hospitality. The menu is extensive and I found it helpful to ask the friendly servers their recommendations and suggestions. I really enjoyed the sesame baked cheese, mantia and sausage dip as appetizers and saved plenty of room for their mixed grill platter, which is generous and filling; ordering a salad along with their bread will complete any meal and you will leave more than satisfied by the taste and authenticity of all the dishes. Not just a meal but an experience!

It feels like you stepped into a rustic little house that a family lives in. We really appreciated that they were playing Albanian music. The food is so filling and heavy so pace yourself. My husband and I shared the pepper dip and the baked cheese appetizers, which come with freshly baked bread. Seriously delicious. For entrees, I got the tava kosi, which is an egg dish with two pieces of lamb. Honestly I didn't love it. It's a LOT of egg. The lamb pieces were delicious, but I was already so full that I could only have one piece. I wish it had a bit less egg and a bit more other things, but I know this is their national dish. My husband got the qofte shari. It was perfect. Cooked so well, the meat was spiced uniquely, even the fries were great. I think I just ordered the wrong thing! I would seriously love to return and try another clay dish. We finished off the meal with Albanian coffee, which was like Turkish coffee, but smoother and better. All in all, left so happy and full. Service was so attentive, too. Go here for a unique meal in the cutest little restaurant.

The staff was extremely warm, kind and welcoming and a special shoutout to Irem who was amazing, gave us some great recommendations and took care of us throughout. I went for the $39 prix fixe brunch which is honestly such a great deal and comes with quite a spread. I had the muhammara, hummus, shakshuka and dessert and thoroughly enjoyed my coffee too. We also ordered the tuna Niçoise salad, which is by far the best I have had ever. One of my friends was accidentally served the wrong order and they immediately replaced it with the right one and made her meal completely complimentary, which was such a nice gesture and something we really appreciated. We also loved that nobody was rushing us and we could just sit, chat and enjoy our brunch. Great food, beautiful ambiance, wonderful hospitality and even the restrooms were spotless and very well maintained. Overall such a positive experience and easily a 5/5 for me.

We started with the Hummus with Lamb, which was wonderfully creamy and complemented by the flavorful spiced meat. The Arnabeet Mekle (fried cauliflower) was another highlight, with a delicious combination of textures and flavors. The freshly baked pita bread was a great accompaniment to the appetizers.We also tried the Duck Shawarma, which was enjoyable and paired nicely with the creamy dipping sauce. The only dish that didn't quite work for me was the Mekanek (lamb sausages). While the sausages themselves were good, I found the pomegranate molasses sauce a little too tangy and sour, with the sharpness overpowering the other flavors. This was more a matter of personal preference than anything else. We finished with the Knafe Bil Jibneh, a lovely way to end the meal! Overall, a very enjoyable experience with beautifully presented Lebanese food and plenty of delicious options.

It was a very nice interior, with a trees and stained glass. We ordered the htipiti dip, za'atar flatbread, octopus, brussel sprouts, and shish taouk. Our favorite was the brussel sprouts. They came in a delicious lemon and yogurt sauce with pomegranate, and were very crispy. The octopus was also a standout. It was so tender, and not chewy like other octopus I've had. They told us that it's a 3 day process to make it. The htipiti spread was also very good. I liked the red peppers in it, and it went well with the warm pita and the olive oil and molasses. The flatbread had good flavor but was a bit too cheesy and oily for my liking. I also wasn't a huge fan of the shish taouk. There wasn't much that stood out about it, and it had very strong onion flavor. It was my birthday, and they had also moved us to another table halfway through the meal. As a result, they brought us two free desserts. The olive oil cake was delicious with the strawberry, mint, and whipped cream. The greek yogurt was also very unique, with fig and wine flavors and a sorbet on top. Overall, had a great birthday experience here!

Although I can't comment on the quality of food that I didn't eat, I will say that all of the dishes at the table were incredible simple and didn't feel particularly comprehensive or well thought out. For example, if you ordered an omelette you got a place with an egg on it. If you want potatoes that's extra and if you want sausage that's even extra. It just felt like every plate was not a full meal, it was just one item and you had to build your meal and pay extra if you wanted that. I am not interested in paying these prices and then I have to build the meal myself. My French toast was fine I guess. I order sausage and paid $9 for a singular sausage link on a plate with absolutely nothing special done to it. I can literally buy two packs of the same sausage for the same price. I don't recommend this place, I think they do the bare minimum.
