Au Za‘atar – A Flavorful Lebanese Feast in NYC! 🌯🔥

Just tried Au Za’atar in Midtown East and wow — it’s a delicious dive into Lebanese cuisine that I didn’t know I needed. If you’re looking for bold flavors, warm spices, and dishes made for sharing, this is your spot. 🧀 Arayes Kafta (Beef “Pies”) THE STAR OF THE NIGHT! Spiced ground beef stuffed inside grilled flatbread — crispy outside, juicy inside, with fresh herbs and onion. Tastes like a Middle Eastern upgrade on a classic stuffed bread. A must-order! 🐟 Dorade (Grilled Mediterranean Sea Bream) Perfectly charred, tender, and seasoned with zesty Middle Eastern spices. A whole fish — impressive and full of flavor. Watch for small bones! 🥟 Lahmeh W Jebne Sfiha (Mini Lamb “Pizzas”) Savory lamb topped on soft dough — tasty, but not as unforgettable as the beef arayes. 🍛 Bemieh Bi Lahme (Okra & Beef Stew) Aromatic and light, with a unique tea-like fragrance. Served with creamy, fragrant rice — comforting and original. We walked in without a reservation and had a fantastic experience. No regrets, just great food and great vibes. 📍 1063 1st Ave, New York, NY 10022 #AuZaatarNYC #LebaneseFoodNYC #MiddleEasternEats #HiddenGemNYC #EatLikeYouTravel
