Top 5 Mediterranean Restaurant in New York City

149 Broadway, Brooklyn, NY 11211, United States

“Nice atmosphere, good service. The menu changes regularly. I thought the appetizers were better than the mains. The pasta appetizer was outstanding and one of the most perfectly cooked pasta I've had. The chicken roulade was so moist and juicy. The duck could have been rendered a bit more. Overall delicious and creative dishes.”

“We had the spanikopitas/spinach pies to start. I had the green soup which was yummy. Hubby had the Greek lasagna. Our friend and I both had the moussaka/eggplant casserole. Dessert was a homemade vanilla yogurt with nuts and honey.”

“Pylos was the perfect choice for a large gathering of friends and family! The service was outstanding, shared appetizers wowed everyone, lamb shank won the night, and the desserts left us deeply satisfied. All the reviews I read were right - the best Greek food in Manhattan!”

“This was perfect for a late dinner in the neighborhood after a show. It has a great atmosphere with a nice open kitchen and the servers were all really nice. The food was all wonderful - traditional Italian with fresh ingredients and well prepared. I started with the rollatiini - sliced eggplant stuffed with ricotta and topped with tomato sauce which was excellent but the star was the pasta with pork cheek, which has a wonderful texture similar to pork neck, and was incredible. I finished with the tiramisu which was one of the best I’ve had in recent memory. I’ll return.”

“The service was terrible last night took over 45 minutes. So slow. The food was good but you would need at least two drinks to kill time to wait for food. They definitely need to work on this especially considering it was not full. All the food was tasty except I would skip the octopus next time and only do the calamari. Too small and only decent. The ambiance was delightful and vibe was good. Better spot for a drink and an app.”

“Reasonable prices, friendly staff, delicious brunch! Got the breakfast pide without the sausage. Wish it had more egg on it, and less chives, but otherwise great! We came at 1pm on a Saturday with no reservation and didn't have to wait for a table.”

“Great food, solid service and a fun environment. Fun DJ on the weekends gets guests up from the seats to dance. The team working were all having fun and truly enjoy being there. If looking for something different than a stuffy restaurant this is the spot. Also try the pizza, so thin and crispy, Amazing!!”

“For us, it's the best Italian restaurant in NY, and probably the best one globally. We first ate here years ago, during a visit to NY, and loved it so much that we returned the following day. We had dinner there this week, during a visit to the city, and the magic remained just the same. Simple, but super tasty food, creative but not presumptios, a great and friendly team, led by the owner, Jorgos (Greek name, that I'm probably misspelling). Don't skip this place!”

“We had the brunch set menu and it was fantastic. Very classic Italian service (attentive, ladies first). The set brunch came with high-quality mimosas and coffee at the end and the coffee was truly excellent. Warm, homey atmosphere with photos of stars who have visited and an original Al Hirschfeld drawing! A little on the pricier end, but definitely worth it, especially the frittata with spinach and goat cheese.”

“Oh My God, if I could give a higher rating, I would. This place was so incredible! The pasta was perfectly made. The drinks were tasty and delicious. Overall a very enjoyable dinning experience. By far the best meal from our weekend away in the city.”

“I've been visiting Bice since their 54th and Madison location and have always had great italian meals here. Today's experience was no different. While the restaurant inside is a little smaller now, this location has a great outdoor dining setup. Highly recommended!”

“Very good diner in a very classy neighborhood of NYC (Lennox Hill) good food and their coffee is great. I would recommend this place for dining after a museum outing of after a movie. They're open from 8AM to 8PM daily.”

“If you are a fan of Greek food this place is the one ! Amazing food and outstanding service, Elena and Nino are very nice and professional. We loved every single thing we tried from Dips platter to grilled calamari, chicken gyro lamb souvlaki and lamb shank. The wine , the beers and the sangria are also delicious. I would recommend this place to everyone. Thank you Symposium for an amazing dinner.”

“It's a cute family spot for Italian food on a street packed with tourist traps, a recommended place if you're thinking about going to a show nearby. The restaurant is small and cozy, nothing splashy and the service is very attentive and friendly. The menu is extremely small and limited, so make sure you check it before you go so you have options. The food is nothing to write home about but it's okay, you will most likely enjoy it, just won't be impressed. I have to highlight the mussels appetizer, they were juicy and the sauce was absolutely tasty (I mopped it out with the bread). The bolognese pasta was cooked perfectly al dente and the sauce is also pretty good. If you're a fan of calf liver (like I am) I can assure you you'll like this flavorful and tender one (it's hard to find a place that does it justice). In an area that is flocked with tourists and people going to theaters, it's a place good enough to have an okay dinner at a reasonable price.”

“I always wanted to visit, but I was always busy and didn’t see the urgency based on the reviews. But I finally got the chance too and it was amazing, Marco our waiter was very charming and knowledgeable. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the white linen tablecloths the pictures and lights on the wall an Italian story was about to be told I was definitely I was ready to listen. The music was at the perfect level so I can actually have a conversation with my partner which I really loved. They was many choices on the menu to choose from, I decided on crab cake and it’s definitely a must have, everything we order was delicious! I also choose the pasta special which includes shrimp, mussels and scallops. I had an amazing dining experience, and I will definitely visit again..”

“Such a spectacular hidden gem of a restaurant! Service was impeccable, servers and waiters were always there to take plates and refill drinks, I was thoroughly impressed. The food was extremely delicious, I got the salmon which was cooked perfectly and placed over an incredible light mustard sauce. The chicken and veggie plate were great too! The restaurant served many complimentary small plates, which was greatly appreciated, that included a bread basket, mini charcuterie, green beans, carrots, and biscotti. I can’t wait to come back again!”

“Really enjoyed dinner at this Israeli hotspot in a chic Williamsburg hotel. Food quality was superb - had the Tunisian Tuna Crudo and the Arabic Salad for starters. The tuna was good for 2 and salad was fresh. Entrees had similar middle eastern spices. The Persian Margarita was tasty! Service was friendly and prompt.”
