NAYA Mezze & Grill

The best halal restaurant in Manhattan, the stuffed grape leaves are amazing, the molokhia is made in the Egyptian way also soo delicious 😍😍😍

Loved it! The decor, the food, the service - all amazing. Great spot for a date. We had the spicy hummus appetizer, then the Wednesday special zucchini with minced beef, and the chicken shawarma. All perfect, and the beef especially was so soft and warm with the curry. Then, we had the baklava and Lebanese coffee. The service size for the hummus and the entrees is huge, so we got lucky that we were both starving. Even the baklava dessert came with 4 different pieces. With taxes and tips, came to around 40 per head which isn't too bad for a great evening in Manhattan.

Stumbled upon his restaurant by chance. The mixed grill is amazing and the portions are really big. Could have totally split his with a friend but instead have leftovers. Everything was really good. Cool atmosphere too.

This place was delicious and so authentic!! The tabouli, baba, muhamara, and chicken kebab plate were especially good. Will definitely be a regular.

I was not too familiar with Lebanese food, but what a fabulous first experience. The restaurant itself is very well designed, the seats are comfortable and the atmosphere is romantic. We got a couple appetizers and an entree to share, which were all delicious and very interesting, flavor-wise. I especially recommend the kibbe naya (lamb tartar) and kibbe labniye. The jellab drink was also delicious and very refreshing. We were full by the end, but just had to try some of the interesting desserts they had. Milk pudding was excellent, as was the kanafe. Service was attentive but not overbearing. We are looking forward to the next time we will go back.

I appreciate the easy ordering process, and food is not bad given the price point and speed

Great food, delicious wine, this little spot is a great time for dinner with friends or a date. Reservation is recommended, since the place is small and popular. Will be back for some mezze goodness!

Hands down one of the best meals of my life. Best Lebanese food in the city. Broad menu without being overwhelming. Something for everyone. Staff was fantastic. Highly recommend!

Absolutely outstanding food. Have to go there everytime I am in NYC. Just take a look at this piece of Branzino

I ordered the chicken shish taouk, this was my second time ordering, first time dining in. The food was really good as it is plated, but my suggestion is to pour the ‘green sauce’ (I forgot the name) over the chicken 😶 And also try the garlic spread - you won’t regret it 😋😋😋 This place has definitely been added to my restaurant rotation ✨

Top notch authentic food, amazing friendly service. Very modern decor, feels like you're in a space ship.

The place and food are wonderful. The waiters are amazing. Medo & Abdelrahman, keep it up guys!

One of the best in New York I like everything in this restaurant

The most cost effective lunch spot in this neighborhood. I have been ordering a salad bowl with chicken ($14) for my lunch. If you use their app to order, you can get your food relatively fast (usually under 10-15 mins) and accumulate their rewards. You can dine in but the sitting area is pretty tight. People usually stand around the dining area waiting for their food. I would recommend take-out.

This was my first time trying Lebanese food and it was wonderful! First, the service was great. Second, the food was fantastic (Also, I heard that the food was very authentic). Lastly, the ambiance was lovely. The restaurant was small, but set up very well. If you are ever looking to try Lebanese food, I highly recommend this place!

Naya has become my "Go To" source for Mediterranean "fast food" here in New York City. Their ease of ordering via their app and attention to quality and detail not only for their food but in the packaging and delivery (or pick up) is stellar! I love Naya!

AMAZING! I was visiting NYC for a couple of days and ordered takeout through uber eats and I am so glad I did. This is as authentic as it gets to Lebanese food. The tender meats, crisp vegetables, and fluffy rice all combined to create a culinary masterpiece that I will not soon forget. Thank you for the superb quality guys, really. The quality, freshness, authenticity, I am beyond happy. This is the best Lebanese restaurant in the US, period! Just as good as the stuff you would get in Lebanon. My only regret is not ordering more food items!

Fast delivery. Food was amazing. The way that you can customize a roll, etc., is great. They're opening one at 70th and York and I will be taking out from there at least once a week.

We love this little take out place! The food is always fresh and delicious. I usually get a bowl or a salad which is enough for me to have leftovers for lunch the next day.

Loved this place-tiny narrow restaurant. Felt like you're the elite dining on a luxury airplane or bus. Food was excellent and beautifully plated. Reasonable prices and generous portions. Excellent service - we had two waiters helping. Great for date night. Def will be back to try other dishes.

Amazing place, I've never been to a Lebanese place before but the food was amazing. Rich with many different flavours and many different options. The staffing where helpful and patient. It is a very skinny restaurant but it's set up do well you don't notice. Probably best for 2 people, although I think they have some 4 seat tables. It's in-between fancy and relaxed so no need to dress up but it also doesn't hurt. Great place for a date.

The food here is absolutely delicious and made with high-quality, healthy ingredients. While this location is mobile order and pickup only, the food doesn't miss a beat. There's no traditional counter service, but the team members who brought out orders were incredibly friendly and helpful when I needed assistance finding mine. This has quickly become my go-to lunch spot in the area. Naya is fantastic!

Each dish reflects care and attention to flavor. I make this a regular stop because it's always good. They serve typical items for this type of place. The service team showed real warmth. This restaurant earned my recommendation.

The food here was very good. I thought the lamb was especially tasty. I’ve never paired it with tomato but it was fantastic. I highly recommend it. I thought the wine was very good here too. I would recommend that also. The ambience was great and the staff is very nice. A bit expensive but worth it. I will be coming back to try other dishes. Rating 4.5

Solid middle eastern lunch spot in midtown. Sauces taste zesty, meat quality is decent, and portions are big. I personally prefer Cava, but they aren’t on the delivery apps, and Naya is, so it serves its niche well.

Very nice place to go and eat. It’s a small but very cool lebanese restaurant. Had a dinner here last week: fresh and tasty food, I loved the hommus and the falafel! Great service

This is a good middle eastern restaurant but the service could have been improved. The hostess gave my partner and I the impression that she did not want to work that night. We went September 18th.

Very Narrow layout with a modern, space ship like ambiance but incredibly fast service and wonderfully nice staff. Pictured is the hummus with beef, falafel and mixed grill platter.

A bougie Middle Eastern food spot. Rarely see that combo but the food was actually pretty legit. Their yogurt sauces where so good.

The workers at this location are so nice. There isn't an option to tip so I tried to tip them in person and she wouldn't take it. I took a star off as they're automatically throwing in plastic utensils whereas under NYC law, they're required not to unless you ask as those contribute to plastic pollution.

Compared to regular store of Naya this took way too long. Usually my order takes 3min with a check out. Spent 15 here….with no line. No way to customize your order in the computer and no one to talk too..

hit or miss depending on the dish. same with the service. some dishes priced nice, some overpriced

This restaurant took my $140 order and the food NEVER CAME! Absolute crooks, stealing money from people as they do a “renovation” . Totally pathetic. Don’t order from them. Edit: I am editing my review as the food came after 2 hours. I had to call almost 15 times before getting someone on the phone. I was told my order had a mixup and they had to remake it. When I got the food, it was cold and soggy, the cardboard delivery boxes were beginning to wither away. I live about 6 min bike from this restaurant so I’m not sure how this would happen unless my original order was just kept sitting in its bag for the full 2 hours. Overall changing my review from 1 to 2 stars as the food is tasty but the poor delivery experience means I will not be going back as this is all they offer.

Food was so subpar. The rice blend was taught to chew. The falafel was also quite tough and not as soft in the inside. I say if you want a better meal, go to Omar's a few blocks away. Authentic and tasty every time.

Repetative incident of expired packaged items and put in my take out bag (tabbouleh and baba ghannoj with few days past the best by sticker). I do not trust the quality anymore

I don’t know why this place has the same name as Naya, but their food is completely different. Worst pita absolutely ever. So thin your sandwich will never hold. Chicken Schwarma tastes like nothing, extremely disappointing experience. Will not be back.

What is this? Fake pictures, awful Naya location

It’s a digital order and they don’t put in half the things you order. Ordered a salad bowl and picked out what I want: got no tomatoes, olives, cheese. Lettuce they use is older as well. Would not recommend going here. I usually go to the location at Times Square and it is so good.

commercialised Lebanese food doesn’t taste authentic. It’s also over salted and spiced.
