Best Middle Eastern Restaurants in East Flatbush

Sherif was really great and the staff who seemed to work with him were caring, attentive and great at their jobs. Balade really went far to make people feel happy at Christmas. The only challenge (often in small restaurants on holidays) is the outrageous number of undisciplined kids, out way too late, and dogs now. It's too much and next time I won't go there on a holiday. If I have a dog sitting next to me, I'll graciously ask for a check after the first drink and go. I love dogs, but they do not belong in restaurants unless it is outdoor seating and people put restaurants on the spot with this act of absolute self-involved entitlement. This is the rude world we live in now however. My only concern and it didn't ruin our meal only because the staff was so completely great and I was distracted with the wonderful vibe.

A wonderful find in SoHo. We ordered the falafel platter and hummus to start which was so good. It was a perfect amount for four of us. The lamb was perfectly cooked and the ravioli was super yummy. Kate was our server and bartender and she was great! Very attentive and made a mean espresso martini ❤️

I went for my birthday and had the best time, would go back for another special occasion. Beautiful decor, very clean and detailed all throughout the restaurant. I would recommend calling for your reservation to ensure better seating but everything was seamless about the reservation process. As for food also amazing, HUGE portions and STRONG drinks so definitely worth the price. I don’t remember the names but our servers but they were amazing and attentive as well as their in house photographer who took gorgeous pics. For a party of three the total came to be around 475 including tax and tip so with everything considered, it turned out to be a great value for the time that we had. 10/10

Our experience was amazing all the employees are friendly and professional the food is absolutely fantastic, thank you Chef. The service, food, drinks, music, and the atmosphere are all spot on. The food is the winner here. Highly recommended.

I really enjoy dining at Mera, everyone is so friendly. The ambiance is amazing and the vibe is chill, cocktails are as amazing as the bartender who makes them! Food is great amazing selection to choose from will be returning (If I don’t go I call for carry out)
