I’m a Cava and Naya fan but this place have definitely take the first position as my favorite one, everything is perfect, fresh ingredients, nice presentation, great customer service. I can’t describe how satisfy I am with this place that I want to have it every day. Thank you Tamam for offering such a great experience!!!

Always delicious, always fresh falafel, house made hummus, and lots of food for the money! So glad they have whole wheat pita every time I come and that you're all vegan! Every time I'm within 15 blocks I go there!

Both the falafel and the eggplant sandwich were absolutely perfect! The eggplant was beautifully cooked, golden and crispy, and the falafel was delicious too. The portion sizes were just right for the price. Quick and friendly service too.

Vegan, fresh, healthy, and delicious! I got takeout, and remembered to take a a pic only after I dug in hours later. I got the eggplant platter and it had such a unique, tasty medley of flavors. The employees are super friendly. Tamam has a bright and fun vibe.

I have been to many Mediterranean restaurants, and this one isn't a large place; it's mainly for grab-and-go or a quick bite. With only three dishes on the menu, however(!) they've nailed it! I recommend the falafel with cauliflower (its a $3 extra but it worth ut!) it's a great mix. Don't put anything on the bottom so your pita won't drip. ;) I think this is one of the better falafel pitas in NY.

I got sabich platter with everything and it was really yum!! The portion was very fulfilling and I'm glad I got platter because hummus bowl seems too heavy for one portion (total around $18). The fried eggplants were very good. There are outside tables and 2 inside tables but no restroom. I would recommend this place!

Delicious Israeli style Mediterranean food. Conveniently located, well priced, and absolutely delicious. The portions are gigantic and the staff is very friendly. The only downside is that this “plant based” eatery is now serving chicken after marketing itself as vegan for years. The switch is disheartening and means there’s some false advertising on their menu and materials. Still worth it for the vegan options, just know that they serve meat now.

While the food is pretty good, the service, atmosphere, and price lead this to be a 4-star review. First, the food is really tasty. Everything is very mildly spiced but fresh ingredients make this taste good. The warm pita bread they serve plates with are also extremely delicious (soft and flavorful). Service is ok - staff aren’t friendly, just terse. Atmosphere is also ok - not much seating and not the cleanest. Lastly, price is way overinflated from what it should be. A pita sandwich is very small and shouldn’t be $13 ($16 after tax/tip). And the bowls start at $17 ($21 after tax/tip)! Both of these prices need to drop at least three dollars before it is reasonable compared to other restaurants in the surrounding area.

Ordered eggplant pita & falafel platter. It’s decent, fine for a quick lunch or dinner. Not much seating inside. Very quick service which is great. Wouldn’t order falafel platter again. Definitely get the eggplant pita.

The service and food are great! We got 2 falafel platters, which come with hummus, falafel, tahini, pickles, sauerkraut, pickled cabbage, israeli salad and rice/quinoa. It was delicious! There isn’t much room inside to sit (only 3 tables), but during the warmer months they have outdoor seating as well. The owner is very nice!

Tamam used to be my favorite spot on the upper east side. The restaurant is still labeled a vegan restaurant here on Google, but they are not vegan anymore. They have added carcasses to their menu. I asked the woman making my bowl the other week if the chicken was vegan chicken and she said yes, and gave me some to try on the side… Luckily, I could tell by the smell it was not vegan. I will not be going back. Just another cowardly restaurant adding meat to the menu and attempting to appease omnivores. But the real impact is that vegans will stop eating here.
