New York Cafe Inc — Restaurant in Los Angeles

What a pleasure all around! Nvard and his wife were wonderful hosts and Nvard is a fantastic chef! The restaurant itself is nicely appointed and very clean and comfortable!

It was great to finally be able to get my daughter authentic fresh chicken shawarma, unlike the dry chicken curry masquerading as shawarma at California Adventure two weeks earlier! The chicken shawarma here is made with the freshest ingredients! I even ate the tomatoes, and I don't even like tomatoes! 🍅 The cucumbers had just the right amount of crunch! 🥒 It was so delicious, I ate the whole thing in one sitting!

My son's large pepperoni pizza was just as delicious! He ate half all by himself!...then polished off the rest when we got home! 🍕

Nvard's wife even offered us peppermint Lifesavers as we were departing! We will definitely be back! Thank you for a wonderful meal and experience!...

So this place has new owners and although they are super nice, the food is NOT the same. I remember coming in once hearing the new owner say the food is the same but it's really not. The guy that used to own the place just prepared the food soooo much better. The sandwiches are now half the size and not as good. The salads are also not as good as before. .I really miss that Chinese chicken salad and chicken sandwich. It's just not the same. One thing I can say was pretty good was their smash burger. So if you ate at this establishment when Nelson owned it just be prepared cause it's definitely not what...

Man seemed cold with a bit of attitude... don't know if it's a New York thing ... but wasn't greeted at all .. asked if he had coffee cause I saw it was empty and said of course all snappy and just brought sugar and no cream or milk... i was extra nice saying thank you for every interaction..and he's all ... ehh!🧐

White folk come in and so happy go lucky .. black and Mexican come in ... noticeably...
