Bowery Bungalow

Originally from Silver Lake, Los Angeles, this outpost brings unconventional comfort cuisine inspired by the Levant, North Africa, and Anatolia to the SoHo Cast Iron District. The kitchen serves lamb kofta and a complex Palestinian chicken. The rustic, paneled room is quiet and easy to converse in, with a bar in the back. While the intimate setting is generally praised, some diners find the room too dark to easily see their food, and service can occasionally slow down during peak hours.
