A cozy Upper West Side basement spot loved for its exceptionally creamy hummus and fresh, light falafel.
Description



Operating since 2004, this neighborhood fixture is located a ten-minute walk from Central Park. The kitchen focuses on a certified Kosher menu that is mostly vegan and gluten-free, preparing fresh Mediterranean classics daily. Diners can order a hummus platter to sample different varieties, including a popular mushroom version, alongside sides like grape leaves, tabouleh, roasted eggplant, and carrot ginger soup. The small, warm space accommodates both sit-down meals and quick takeout orders of pita and hummus, with Turkish coffee and baklava available for dessert.
