Super disappointed. My advice is to stick to the Hudson Yards location because their menu is at least consistent and the food is actually really tasty. I dont think the food at this location is worth it for the price and portions. Maybe it might be better for couples. But if youre going in a group of four like we did, then each of you will only have a bite of each dish if you all decide to share. At least the vibes are nice!First off, I get that they were trying to be cute with their menus by replacing the item with a testimonial from a customer. But it was totally distracting and it made it really hard to choose what you want since you cant compare it with what you see in photos. So we decided to get recommendations through our waitress. The waitress walked us through the menu but she literally recommended everything on there so it wasnt all too helpful. She really hard sold us on how everything was worth trying and the best dish ever. So we went with the Lahmajun, the tomatoes, the Branzino, the mushroom pasta, and the egg plant.The first thing that arrived was the tomatoes. Im not sure what we were expecting but it was literally sliced cherry tomatoes covered with olive oil and a little salt. It was fine honestly but really underwhelming given that the waitress highly recommended it.Next was the egg plant. It was mostly fine but it tasted way too charred and under seasoned. I think they were trying to give it a smokey taste but it was too much.Lahmajun was actually pretty tasty. But its like a mini mini pizza. Id say probably the size of a pita.Branzino was okay. It was tender and kind of cool how there was still a fire when setting the dish down. But nothing outstanding and definitely not the best Branzino ever as the menu described.Mushroom pasta was also pretty good. Maybe my favorite item? But honestly you could get it at any Italian restaurant.We were a group of 4 and we ended up spending $140 for 5 dishes. Im not really the type to complain about costs especially if I find the food and experience worth it. But that wasnt it. The size of the portions werent very large and none of us left feeling very satisfied. Although the waitress recommended we order one more item, we decided to hold off and to order more if necessary. Im kind of glad since I dont think there would have been a dish that would make up for our experience.
The portions are minescule and the prices are very high. When the food is ready, they bring it right out. I have no problem with this, but they said you can share the appetizers. The only thing is that appetizers were so small they were unshareble! The beet Carpaccio was good & this we could share. Everything else was a challenge. We made a mess of the table. I ordered the halibut for a main course. It came in a huge plate to make it look bigger. It was bits of halibut in a dill salad with some sort of hot sauce. There was hardly any halibut! It was like they had leftovers & were trying to stretch a meal out of it. The staff however were very friendly and professional. This was the best part of the experience. I know I wont go back to this restaurant. If you do decide to dine here, make sure you eat before.
Disgusting service; bad food; unbearably loud and outrageously overpriced.Took nearly 2 hours to serve 4 people a meal that could have been ordered and eaten in about half an hour.Thumping disco music so loud we couldnt hear each other speaking. Asked to please turn down a bit. Ignored.Waiter suggested all dishes be shared by table. Took 20+ minutes for food to begin arriving--which came in dribs and drabs.Eggplant: was two green lines on a piece of cardboard which needed bread. Foccacia bread: came 15 minutes later-a circle less than 5 in diameter.General salad: another 10 minutes waiting, was tiny pile of berries, raw carrot and apple that couldnt satisfy a single 3 year old.Mushroom pasta: served 15 minutes later, was 10 noodles with spicey chopped mushrooms. Share??Kebab: 20 minutes after that, 4 small ultra-spicied meatballs served next to a big spicey roasted pepper.Lamb Steak: about 10 minutes later, was 6 thin slices in sauce, each slice the size of a quarter, four were grizzle and inedible. The sauce was passable but just. Nothing else on plate.We ordered no dessert.AND ALL THIS FOR $300.Getting the food took so long and we were left so hungry, we ran out to get dinner.
Anything Eyal Shani does is purely genius. North Miznon is always a delight for the senses...their use of vegetables, which are elevated with little fuss is a delight. Although the menu does change constantly, there are some resident items that make you go back again and again.
Since day one, I really wanted to love this place. I work in the meatpacking district and Miznon has a location in the chelsea market, that I was never able to go too because of the line. When I saw that this location was opening, i thought it was my chance....I agree with the 5 stars reviews... Miznon is one of the best Israeli restaurants in the City. Flavors are amazing, the spices, the cauliflower. Yes Yes Yes.But.... my number one complain is that this place is totally unreliable. Often closed for private events... sometimes its half empty but you cant get a table because of reservations... Also portions are tiny, so good for a girls night out, but not enough if you are with big eaters.For these reasons, I took it off my go-to restaurants in the UWS.
Great please to dine right before a show! This is an Israeli restaurant that focus on creating yummy healthy dishes that is not only tasty but guilt free. Service is excellent as the staff has a unique way to make you feel welcome and definitely order their signature cauliflower tripled cooked appetizer.
Shout out aloud for North Miznon and its hospitality spirits!Our waitress Rebecca is AMAZING! She’s welcoming, attentive and knowledgeable. She not only helped us with our food order (getting signature dishes with good balance of heavy and light dishes), but also shared Miznon stories and the food preparation with us, which definitely made us appreciate more about all the dishes.As the menu said - if I am not wrong, it’s the best Branzino I ever ate, the roasted one - YES! This is a must have dish if you love fish roasted with butter, tomato, onions and scallions. The presentation is also interesting, coming out with a burning fire. Their sourdough is great too, crispy outside and chewy inside. It goes well with spicy dips (roasted eggplant and tomatoes is my favorite, but the babaganoush was incredibly creamy). It’s also amazingly delicious if dipping it into the fish dish. The world famous cauliflower- I don’t think I need to say to much about it. It has been extremely famous in their Chelsea location, but here you can just cut it and mix with those sea salt spilled on the table paper - love it as always!At the end of the night, we left the restaurant tipsy and satisfying.
Very small portions , not good for bigger parties (6-12) food does not arrive together .Second floor sitting area very old and run down .The service was great. The food is tasty But make sure to eat well at home before you go😃
One of my Jewish friends recommended this place to me as her favorite UWS restaurant. The Rotisserie Broken Chicken Pita here is some serious deal were talking about. Ive never tasted this level of delicate balance between chicken and scallion other than that from Japanese jidori udon. The chicken is very tender, flavorful, and amazingly-seasoned. Generous portion and quick preparation time, too.
Its Tel Aviv on the Hudson! I was very excited to finally try celebrity chef Eyal Shanis UWS outpost. Unlike the 3 Miznons in Tel Aviv and the one in Chelsea Market, its a waiter-service, full-service restaurant, as opposed to counter-service. Like all of his restaurants, theres the signature roasted whole head of cauliflower served in parchment paper - its caramelized and your knife goes through it like butter! Theres a range of interesting dishes from lamb to chicken to fish. The pan-fried branzino was recommended and with good reason! It comes out flaming - literally - see my pictures. Its a fun, if not loud and chaotic atmosphere - it was a Sunday night and we saw 2 birthdays. I was thinking that it would be a good place for my own...
Thanks for elevating - or more precisely bringing back to the quality level it should be - the flavorful Mediterranean cuisine. Its fresh, its colorful, its full of spices and whole ingredients, its comforting and healthier than you think, its a renewed treat. Great vibe, busy without being too loud, energizing, a sense of happening. Our waiter was funny and efficient.
A welcome expansion of the Miznon eatery, with a larger kitchen, bar and counter, and plenty of table seating spread across two levels. Service is utmost friendly and patient when I asked about the particularities of the menu. Food is nicely prepared and is tasty! Will certainly go back for more deliciousness.
Wow! The food at North Miznon is absolutely incredible. As someone who is celiac, they were very aware of my gluten allergy and almost everything is already gluten free or can be modified to be gf! We had the tahini eggplant, braised octopus, whole roasted branzino & seared lamb. Everything was BEYOND delicious! Will be returning to try everything else on the menu 🙃
Best schnitzel I’ve ever had in NYC no doubt. The staff is friendly, the new location is beautifully designed the new dishes are delicious and me and my friends really enjoyed the visit. Definitely going to come back again and highly recommended
Found!This new location is a bit more serious (table service!) than the first fast-casual location at Chelsea Market. Nonetheless, they bring a similar Tel Aviv menu of simple food expertly prepared. I am forced to acknowledge that a good chef lets the food do the heavy lifting rather than the preparation. The fish, schnitzel, mezze platter and of course the grilled cauliflower are all excellent! The vibe is lively and casual and a great addition to the Upper West Side.For more great reviews visit TheLoupe!
Loved all the different plates until the end (dessert pictures) the course starts with vegetables, to fish and chicken as well as beef carpaccio and many other delicious dishes. Their group menu is exquisite!
Amazing place! Finally the great celebrity chef eyal shani opened 2nd location and its just as good as the Chelsea market location. Wonderful! Lovely stuff friendly. Delicious food. Great vibe! Must go spot.
Food was absolutely delicious! We’ve ordered folded hamburger and lamb kebabs. Pita was the best I’ve ever had in my life!! Quick service, nice terrace.
I was really disappointed with the NYE event at North Miznon. The staff allowed people into the restaurant without masks, and guests to dance between tables (also maskless). My partner and I left before finishing the meal because we felt completely unsafe in the environment that the restaurant staff clearly didn’t have under control.Beyond the general sense of insecurity, hot plates arrived to the table completely cold and the waitstaff was totally uninformed on the plates offered.I understand we’re facing difficult times and I empathize with the restaurant industry right now, but this event was totally unhygienic and irresponsible.
Oh WOW! We had a great time in the Miznon.Everything we had was just amazing! See for yourself:)Ill definitely go back next time Ill be in NYC
Amazing restaurant. Today the service had some delay but they were so kind and caring that compensated the wait. The place is very well located close to the metro station. I reccomend to order the Branzino. Really really good.
My wife and I got severely sick after our last meal there...She puked a few hours after her meal and I woke up in the middle of the night feeling horrible, passed out, fell and broke a rib as a result...
Great place with amazing food! The vibe is really nice, great energy all around. The staff is super friendly and super professional. The lamb is amazing (they cook it in multiple different styles, just try it!).
Everything came out great and the server was accurate on portion sizes. Recommend sharing multiple things! For reference I tried the Bronzino, focaccia, and mushroom pasta
I’ve been to North Miznon 4 times and each time it’s been amazing! I will be back!
The food is wonderful but the portions are tiny. The prices are obscene. $28 for a small portion of pasta. $27 for a single skewer of octopus and vegetables w 5 bites of octopus. They kept on trying to clear our dishes before we were done. We didn’t want to spend more money on dessert ($24 if we’d each gotten a dessert) so left hungry after 4 dishes. Sitting in the front of the restaurant on a cold night is unpleasant as the cold air blasts in each time someone enters or exits.Estiatorio Milos is so much more elegant. Qanoon and Miss Ada are at least as delicious at a much lower price point and similar casual atmosphere.
Incredible freshly prepared food both for veggies and meat eaters with charming, professional and sometimes raucous staff, all makes for a welcoming, electric ambiance. Highly recommend!
Great food in a fun atmosphere. Delicious menu that works for all diet restrictions - vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, dairy free, and just yum!!!!Love the eggplant rails with tahini, the octopus is divine. And if you are a bread eater definitely get the focacia - made to order, so order early and often. Eats fast and so good.And doesnt hurt that it is my mothers favorite restaurant.
Great place to stop by for amazing food! The golden chicken was amazing along with the salad spread we got. Family friendly and spacious bathroom. The service is a bit slow but the food makes up for it.
Love the food here, menu names are a bit quirky but dont get dismayed.The ambience and service is fun.
Best lunch on the UWS!!! Love coming here for lunch really nice staff that i can talk to when j come alone, always fresh ingredients plus a signature dish that actually got me to like cauliflower
As advised, a farm to table restaurant, so menu changes alot due to supply chain issues. Having said that, our food was delicious with interesting items, and servers very helpful.
Great service, and delicious food!They used to serve Pita here, but they changed their menu recently. Try the Kebab, it’s super delicious!
Portions were small and expensive - they ran out of a few signature dishesWaiter was impressed by himselfNot what it used to be - would not recommend it going forward
North Miznon is an absolute gem of a restaurant and a true New York experience. The food is decadent and served to the precise standards of Chef Victor and his incredibly talented staff. The vibe is similar to the high energy of a Thanksgiving dinner, buzzing with activity and excitement while remaining intimate and familial. The restaurant is set up with an open kitchen concept blurring the lines between creation and consumption and invites patrons sitting at the bar to interact with the beating heart of Miznon: the staff. Best seats in the house are therefore at the bar, and if youre lucky to get them prepare yourself for shots (if you dont like black licorice, pass on the Arak; it is an acquired taste).I would recommend the lamb chops, the 7 cloud ricotta pasta, and the branzino paired with the whiskey cocktail. Plates are typically small but rich; for three people we ordered the above with 3 vegetables which was the perfect amount of food. The staffs recommendations are worth following, but it will likely cost $50-80 per person on the meal, which is understandable for the quality but still steep. We went on a Tuesday night and were able to use Resy to get a reservation with ease. The restaurant was about 90% full when we arrived at 8PM, and slowly trickled down until the close at 10PM.Side anecdote: if a dish isnt to their liking, they refuse to serve it because they prioritize their reputation and the experience of the customer over the financial or tactical costs of throwing out an item. Everything is made in house and with passion - you can see it in every member of the staff. I think we all wish restaurants had this commitment to excellence, but very few do it with such zeal and sincerity. Count me as a huge fan.
Had a terrible experience mainly due to restaurant reception staff. Extremely poor service and inconsiderate approach for family dining.Reserved the table for outside dining at 5 pm on a Saturday for 3 to attend with my wife and 20 month old toddler in a full size stroller.The restaurant would not honor the reservation despite empty curbside tables and the maître d informed us they have decided to seat us in the first floor patio which entitles climbing a flight of 25 stairs with a baby and full size stroller (No Elevator).After keeping us waiting for 20 mins and when we were about to leave, a manager approaches from the back of the restaurant and ask us to stay telling us he will arrange for the staff to carry the stroller upstairs.The patio turned out to be an open space covered by a tent creating a hot house effect on an 80 degree NY summer day. They had to provide an electric fan to ease the discomfort.Waitress service was friendly. We tried the eggplant appetizer, Octupus, Bronzino fish and Entrecôte steak. All dishes were certainly on the salty side. As far as overall dishes the cooking is mediocre but the ingredient is fresh.Stay away from the octupus shishlik. It was as tough as a sun soaked leather in the Israeli dessert (simply inedible). Bronzino was by far the best dish we had.As for value it is definitely Over Priced. Entrecote was a 16 oz strip steak with no sauce and side of green for $52 (pretty under whelming). We paid $240 for a simple meal for two (incl 3 drinks total) which we shared with our son without dessert.The final insult to injury was when we wanted to leave and everyone refused to help us with bringing down the stroller. The bus boy simply turned away and disappeared after our request for bringing the stroller. The maître d approached my wife telling her she should get the stroller from upstairs. When my wife (5’1 110 lbs) said she is not able to carry the full size stroller for 25 stairs, the maître d became visibly agitated turned her back and started waving her hands in the air in protest all in front of our stunned eyes.I guess the restaurant expects lunch with heavy labor for $240.Needless to stay Miznon will not be our family’s go to restaurant, For families on the Upper Westside, I recommend the family friendly and always excellent service The Smith at Lincoln Square as an alternative.
Great Israeli style, and fun, dining experience. Food is served in smaller size tasting portions so if your hungry, you’ll probably be ordering a lot. Would deff recommend!
Overpriced, bad experienceWe ordered several dishes, all of which arrived with shug (very spicy condiment), with no warningI couldnt eat a thing. How is that even seasoning?The food took forever to get to us, portions are ridiculously small, they suggest family style but there is barely a bite for each personWe got the dinosaur for 99$, they said its more than enough for 3 people - it was not even enough for 2Its ok if your portions are small - but tell us in advance! Dont convince us to share and show up an hour (!!) After we ordered with tiny dishesThe only good dish was the baranzino fishI do not recommend visiting here, we left hungry and unsatisfied after ordering a lot of dishes
OMG where do I start? My husband and I had the best meal here.We sat at the bar and it was such a scene! SO much fun watching the staff as theyre cooking and getting to know them, and even more fun throwing back shots of whiskey and arak with them.The food was incredible, everything we had was fantastic. I loved my arak mojitos. The sabich sounded awesome and I was so upset when it was sold out, but the eggplant on tahini was mindblowing and made me forget it entirely. The hamachi was good, the whole branzino was perfectly cooked and is not to be missed.I cant wait to come back!
Tiny portions, incredibly overpriced, super slow service, mediocre food
Love Miznon! Amazing pita. Try the minute steak or the cheeseburger. Dont forget the cauliflower! Uws vibe is different and more quiet than the chelsea market one. They need to figure it out... Eyal, good luck.
I really wanted to be able to give this place more than three stars, but I couldnt do that and give an honest review. In truth, I vacillated a bit between giving two and three stars before deciding on three. Heres why:When we ordered, our waitress suggested that we share our entrees, because the food comes out as its prepared and wed each be getting our meal at a different time. Well, no. Its up to your kitchen staff to start preparing our meals in such a fashion that theyre all ready at roughly the same time. I shouldnt have to give up half of my entree because you cant get my buddys meal on the table in a timely fashion.As promised, our meals arrived at widely different intervals. Two of us were essentially done before the other two entrees arrived.My lamb shish kebab was quite good, and a friend that ordered the branzino was happy as well. Our friends that ordered the eggplant and the hamachi were disappointed with the size of their portions, and I cant blame them; there really wasnt much food on either of their plates. When we commented on this, the waitress was ready with what seemed to be a canned response, and offered to bring back the menus if we wanted to order something else. I got the impression that this was not the first time shed heard this particular complaint. We ordered a second focaccia (wed gotten one as an appetizer, and it was pretty good). Thirty minutes later we asked about the focaccia (Its coming!). Forty minutes later, we asked for the the check, which included the focaccia that had never arrived. Waitress: Itll be here soon!. Me: We wont. Take it off the check. Leaving an item that never arrived on the check is pretty ballsy, in my opinion.Id like to come back here, because the food was quite good. But the small portions, spotty service and operational issues made this a less-than-pleasant dining experience.
Excellent venue for a birthday. Overflowing with food and service. Amazing Israeli salads and delicious mains. The desert table is a must have!
This is a great Mediterranean restaurant in uptown Manhattan. Had been earlier to the one in Chelsea and quite liked their food so decided to go to this location, being there in the vicinity. It was an amazing and fun experience. Sat at the bar counter as the place was full. The whole staff in this place is such an amazing and fun loving staff, so full of energy that it just flows. The drinks are good and and the food is excellent. Had the roasted cauliflower - was good. The lamb kebab was flavourful & tasty and the salad accompanying it was just so good that it complemented it perfectly. The perfect icing on the cake was the dark chocolate mousse. If anyone in New York knows how to make the an amazing mousse then it is these guys. It is beyond excellent. Words cant do justice to the taste of their chocolate mousse. The whole experience of the meal there was festive, fun and satisfying. Love this place and the amazing staff.
The restaurant was very nice and very lively. The flat bread was fantastic, but it was a small portion. We wanted to get a kebab and heard that there was an amazing shnitzel, but the shnitzel was not on the menu. Also, we were informed that there was no kebab left. The lettuce in the bag was delicious, but a little expensive. The wait for the food was quite long -- maybe because of COVID complications. We sat outside on the terrace and it was mostly quiet, but there was very loud music inside.
Everything we had was absolutely delicious. Personal favorites include the LEEK, focaccia and cabbage! Omg so incredible! Highly recommend this place for a casual, but sophisticated meal
Food here is some of the best on the upper west side - especially if you enjoy Mediterranean food. I prefer the lunch menu over the dinner one but you can find great stuff on either. I don’t give 5 stars only because the service is slow. I know with the pandemic it’s for good reason - but even before the pandemic I felt like the time from when you order until your food arrives is not to NYC standards. They also only have beer and wine which (for me) is not ideal if I’m going to be waiting a while. This said - I’m a fan of this place and recommend it to folks just with the small caveat
Have to amend my review as neither chicken pitas nor cauliflower (my favorites) are on the menu any more. The restaurant is searching for new identity positioning itself as a more upscale choice, which is unfortunate because the hostesses are extremely and curiously unfriendly. Wait service, to the contrary, is eager and energetic (only in mood, expect long wait for your order).
They run out of food real fast. Other than that pretty good.
Highly recommend North Miznon restaurant. Warm atmosphere. Food is so delicious, especially i liked enveloped fish. Stuff is very friendly and pleasant☺️
Very very noisy, not a place for relax dining experience over a nice conversation, good quality food but the prices a bit high.
Simply one the best places to eat dinner in NYC. Relaxed but lovely atmosphere, friendly host and service. We started with the amazing vegetable crown and tahini, and for mains had the lamb and root vegetables, as well as the kebab on focaccia. The champagne was paired perfectly, as was the Beaujolais. Just superb.
The baby cauliflower was delicious, but the ratatouille pita was a little greasy and soggy but overall taste was great! My brother had the lamb pita and said it was really well spiced and tender.The place itself is nice, airy and the staff are all super friendly and attentive. prices are pretty high for the type of food and restaurant setting. Neverless, this is a great addition to the neighborhood!
Clearly the focaccia is a single serving size. Dont share.
The best restaurant in the Upper West Side? I’d say so! Everything was delicious and simple in this rotating menu. I’ll be coming back again and again!I do suggest eating family style so you can taste as much as you can from the menu
North Miznon was delicious! The freshly baked bread is such a great start to the meal and something not to be missed...make sure to save room for the rest of the great menu though! I was with a large group so was lucky to try a lot! All of the vegetable dishes were amazing, especially the cauliflower (of course!) and the green beans were also a big hit. For mains the schnitzel was by far my favorite, and I also really enjoyed the cod. Would highly recommend everyone checking out North Miznon!
Highly recommend the intimate stew, the pita was so warm, soft, and the perfect thing to hold for the deliciousness inside. Will return!
Absolutely terrible. An “eccentric Israeli chef” means nothing that is listed on the menu is actually available to order, and that you can’t decide the order of the dishes (that aren’t available anyway, despite being on the daily menu.)The only good thing: I finally know how the Hebrew word “Faltzan” translates to English: Eccentric.Stay away.
Amazimg Israeli/med food. Great service. Reasonable prices for quality of food and service. Loud but fun soundtrack
First, let me say that the pita bread is unlike any other pita you have tried. Supremely soft and spongy and thick, this is a gourmet pita. The fillings are awesome, my favorite being the Intimate stew, but you will want to come back several times and try them all.This place is always crowded and with good reason, so be prepared for a pleasant wait and be patient with the cheerful and helpful staff. It is an open kitchen plan so tell the chef what you think of the food, make his day...
Went for dinner with 2 friends. We shared the brazino fish and the steak, both superb. The cauliflower is a must as well. The atmosphere is beautiful, it was not too loud and I enjoyed the unique way the put food on the table on a piece of paper, sometimes without a plate underneath. Only complaint was that it would have been nice to get more than one piece of bread with the spicy dips
Very good and innovative Israeli food. The food would get five stars. The service is not great and it is a noisy room downstairs. Downstairs also gets pretty cold in the winter every time someone opens the front door. If you want a calmer and warmer environment ask for a table upstairs.
Ordered ribeye pita sandwich for delivery on seamless. I live a block away and was feeling lazy to pick up in person. The order arrived cold 45min later and the pita was soggy all over from sitting out too long. It was distasteful and impossible to eat. I tried to find a dry area to bite into but there was none. The pita was bloated and dripped liquid like it had sat out in the rain. I called the restaurant and they were sorry but wanted me to understand they have no control over third party delivery system. Told me they will try to refund me—but this never came through and I was still charged close to $20 for a soggy sandwich I could not eat. A very disappointing experience for both the restaurant and seamless. Pretty sure I will not try again—even though I am only a block away.
Terrible neighbor. Drunken high-decibel parties on rooftop until 2am. Families in nearby buildings can clearly hear every word spoken by guests despite the tent. Miznon, come on —you know these hours aren’t legal in this zone, and your profit is at the expense of your neighbors’ sleep. (Food also overpriced, oversalted.)
I was very excited to finally try Miznon after hearing great things about this restaurant.Upon arrival, both entrees i had planned on trying (from checking the menu online) weren’t available.Then, the dessert I decide to order was also out, and the mint tea, as well.More than half the options on the menu weren’t available, and I was rudely reminded that it was a Sunday night and that fresh products would only be delivered Monday when the restaurant is closed.Very disappointed about the restaurant specially the service
North Miznon isn’t like the other Miznon locations. Same style but different menu. No pita but WOW it’s so delicious. North Miznon is an incredible addition to the neighborhood. If youre looking to come for drinks or to dine, you really can’t go wrong. Beautiful space with fun and friendly service. The chefs here are extremely talented and the tastes of each dish will have you coming back for more.
Very good restaurant! Wonderful atmosphere, terrific service, creative and delicious food and a great location. The outdoor seating is very nice and the indoor decor and energy are fun. Highly recommend!
Great food, service and Israeli atmosphere:)
Was appalled at the food. Either too salty or no flavor. Could not believe this restaurant was actually crowded and people seemed to like the food. Did they have a different chef? The sole was flavorless. The hummus pizza was a mess of chickpeas on top of a pita so salty you could not eat it. The lamb kebob was chopped lamb, I think, mixed with so many spices (not necessary for good meat) molded in a log on top of bread. The salad of vivid vegetables as also very salty. The sweet potatoes were fine. Greys Papaya would have been more satisfying.
A bit pricey though the food is exquisite. All unique combinations, very fresh prime ingredients and tasty:)
The whole cauliflower is the star of the menu here. Everything else is good-to-great - Id recommend the schnitzel, the chicken pita, the meatballs, or the branzino - but what you really want is a second portion of the cauliflower, drizzled with tahini and schug (hot sauce).Drinks are decent, too. Service is not particularly attentive.
Not sure what all the hype is about. Food was not particularly flavorsome. We were seated upstairs and had to chase down the waitress for everything we needed. I complained that there was no hummus on our platter and the waitress seemed to disbelieve me. We asked for items like bread and tehina several times before they came. Desserts were delicious and the space is very attractive.
After visiting Miznon in Chelsea Market, we couldnt wait to visit North Miznon. We went last night and it was delicious. We ordered the dips, salad in a bag , bread salad, octopus, bronzino,lamb and artichoke pasta . Oh and we ended the evening ordering all of the desserts as we couldnt make up our minds. All were fantastic. The cheesecake was my personal fav..Our only mistake of the evening is that we didnt order the chicken which looked great. Cant wait to return soon!
The food here is admittedly very good and the service is friendly but not overbearing. The cauliflower is amazing and perfectly done. The prices however absolutely insane. I know it’s expensive to run a restaurant in New York, but charging $6 for a slice of bread is really balsy and just not cool. Maybe it’s perception but a $29 lamb kabob and $21 4 oz minute steak seem overpriced to me as well.
We went to the Miznon on two different occasions - once for a quick lunch at the bar and once at a festive dinner. both times had a great time. This place has a great atmosphere. The food is special and varied and the service was professional and courteous. Dont leave without trying their great desserts too.
Wouldve given 5 stars if they just had french fries😋😉. Ordered the famous cauliflower and a ratatouille in pita for take-away. It was very tasty. Pita was as good as I had hoped. Cauliflower was a little small but enjoyable. The staff was very friendly. It was a fun bonus being around Hebrew speakers, having lived in Israel and not having visited for 2 yrs now. Nice casual place for a tasty treat and something different than standard American fare or other ethnic options.
Super amazing friendly staff and amazing food. Everything we ordered from the menu is something that wed order again. This location is a more refined version than the Chelsea location with more upscale seating and lighting. Theres 2 levels of seating and the upstairs even has a nice garden patio.
Lost it’s luster. The staff is great but the menu changes are pretty devastating and honestly silly for a restaurant that makes such good food. Totally got away from Israeli delicious offshoot food in lieu of “cool” food (and lots of noise). Had a “fun” dinner there but there wasn’t any pita bread (they made the best pita bread in nyc, why get away from that?)— in lieu of sourdough and white bread. For my Tahina. That’s when you know something has changed for the worse.
Had been coming here at least once per week since it opened. Loved the pita sandwiches and casual vibe. Now, menu is entirely unpredictable, pita non-existent and light fare hard to find. Why would I want to go somewhere (or take others) where the menu (and cost) will be a surprise. Love affair with my former local love has ended, sadly.
Had very high expectations for this place and had been wanting to try it for a while. I have to say i was disappointed, especially with the food. The Filet Mignon was too saucy for the price they charge, I could barely taste the meat and the cauliflower app was burned and had no other taste. The branzino that my friend ordered was pretty good. As for the service it was mostly good except for the fact that the last beer I ordered took a while cz they ran out of the beer glasses and had to refill mine.
Terrible food. Ownership worse. We asked if food was spicy. They said no. My kid went nuts because it was so spicy. They just shrugged their shoulders. Stay away.
Delicious Israeli food uptown! My favorites were the cauliflower, sourdough bread, minute steak, and cod — all eaten with tahini sauce that I want to slather on everything. Do NOT miss the dessert. Can’t wait for my next visit back!
Amazing crew and delicious flavorful food. And the pita is to die for! The cauliflower melts in your mouth and the babaganoush is lovely.Updated review. The food is amazing but i came again and usually Tiana serves me but she is no longer there and the service was a mess. My food came out too quick and the service was very unorganized. They didnt even check in on my table to see if we needed anything
I liked it the first time, but not this time.Service was sub-par for the price. Our appetizers came out 5 minutes apart and main courses out *at least* 10 minutes apart. When you go to dinner with one other person and you dont get your food at the same time, you take turns watching each other eat. It makes for an uncomfortable dining experience. In addition, the first main course came too soon after the appetizers.While we were eating our appetizers, they put another table right next to us. That cut off access to our table, so our waiter had to hand me my main course (I had to reach over the back of the person sitting on the table next to me). When I finally got my filet mignon handed to me, I didnt get a steak knife so I had to use my dirty butter knife.The price for 2 appetizers, 2 main courses, 1 side dish, 1 beer and 2 tonics was $130 before tip. Just not worth it for the uncomfortable experience.The rib-eye steak was excellent and the other food was good to average.I had really high hopes for this place, but I dont think Ill go back.
I cant believe this place is now only a few minutes away from my apartment. Great food and vibes, kids friendly, amazingly fresh and kind service
Went there for brunch. Im not sure what happened but this place used to be great and now its just terrible. Not only is it insanely expensive but the food is just not good at all. A 21 dollar mezze is basically a scoop of mediocre hummus with a raw tomato, an onion and a bunch of olives. Its a joke. Same with the hummus basar. I ordered two and for each the meat was gross, overcooked and mostly just fat. The menu said it was supposed to be beef and lamb but it was just beef. Avoid this place. Seriously. The only upside was the waitress who was awesome.
Eating here at Miznon felt like a true Israeli/Mediterranean experience. The atmosphere is quite bare but lended itself to a real welcoming and relaxed experience. I had the Lamb Kebab plate which consisted of two large skewers of minced and wonderfully spiced lamb that were moist yet still grilled to a perfect char alongside a charred and deconstructed tomato and onion. Yummy meal! Give it a try!
I went to North Miznon for dinner on a Friday night and LOVED it! The atmosphere was incredible - I felt like I was in Tel Aviv. Highly recommend the Kebab and spicy dips. I also hear they have a great brunch, can’t wait to go back!!
We came here as a group of 4 on Saturday night. The appetizers were mediocre, but the branzino was delicious. In addition to the mediocre appetizers, the two start rating comes from the terrible service. Our waiter brought our wine after most of our food got to the table and when we said something about this he was extremely rude and stormed away mid sentence. We spoke to the manager who was nice about it and gave us the bottle on the house.Rudely, at the end of the meal, he just dropped off the check without offering any dessert or coffee/tea. We asked him for a dessert menu and he said they ran out of dessert. On a SATURDAY NIGHT!!!!! Even so, he never said anything about it or offered coffee/tea.Overall, food was mediocre (other than branzino) and the rude waiter made it all worse.
Stay away from this restaurant. Waste of money and your time. Super expensive for a very small and salty food. Even the receptionist was not welcoming and nice. Bad experience from the beginning to the end. Wasted our weekend and money in this restaurant.
Went there for Saturday’s lunch- 2pm.The food was good but most of the dishes are small and not clear if a dish is the entree or appetizer.We where outside and the tables are not a good fit for ‘no plates serving’ like this place. Everything was dripping on my pants through the table top.BTW- no pita bread at all
Had such a fun time here with friends! Food was delicious (alll the veg), energy was great even on a weeknight, and staff was awesome and went out of their way for us. The tahini was a particular highlight, as was the minute steak, and the desserts. Guess that’s everything?Just a heads up, we went on a Tuesday and it was busy, so I’d definitely make a reservation in advance next time.
Shockingly disappointing experience given this places reputation.The touted roasted cauliflowers lovely char on it belied the fact that it was served room temperature at best. Are these things charred ahead of time and then microwaved to serve? Our Mezze platter was a bunch of roughly chopped raw veg with one sad (albeit delicious) falafel in its midst for some unreasonable amount of money. But the clincher was the menus best fish you ever had dish that was swimming in what seemed like a cup of olive oil. So greasy and heavy.To top it off, the service was amateurish at best. You know youre dealing with pros when youre repeatedly asking for something and their seconds-long blank stare ends with an oh sorry - I just spaced out.Two stars because some of the bites were genuinely tasty... will not go here again.
The only restaurant I visited twice in my trip to NY!!!Ive been to so many restaurants in New York, some were delicious and some were less...I always try to go only to the top and most recommended restaurants on my visits to the big apple (cause there are so many good places), but this restaurant was something else… the food was way beyond my expectations... the chef there need to get a Michelin star if you ask me, or at least to appear on their guide. The crew and the atmosphere were also superb... really REALLY recommend this place
We have Rib Eye Minute Steaks. It’s flavorful and yummy. The service is very good. The first time we tried Miznon that was in Chelsea Market the chefs is friendly and the staff.
Such a disappointment compared to original Paris location. The change of the format from casual affordable counter service to contrived, ridiculously expensive entrees served by a semi competent wait staff is a terrible move. The food already paled in comparison to the original but at least it came close. Now theyve taken a unique concept and sterilized it a uniquely American way. If you are in Paris definitely check out the original location. Skip this location. Also the decorative tomatoes are stupid and a waste of food.
Beets thinly sliced with flakes of salt on top, perfectly cooked lamb, and an almond berry tart that I still dream about... North Miznon is a hidden gem in the Upper West Side. Words cannot do it justice.
Terrrrrible experience.Ordered a minute steak pita sandwich and a freekeh with herps and sheep yogurt.I told them about a sesame allergy in the ticket and said no tahini, proposed multiple alternative sauces common in Israeli food (Amba, Garlic paste, a yogurt that came with another dish) we can add and made clear I did not want to eat it dry. I get there and the sandwich is completely dry. They told me there were no possible sauces they can add without sesame. Sandwich came out dry, middling, and $20.The Freekeh with herbs was a grainy salad with some raw vegetables that was very lightly dressed. They either forgot the sheeps yogurt or they put so little it was untasteable.I also asked them for a sauce on the side, the same yogurt sauce, so that I wouldnt have to eat my $20 sandwich completely dry. I offered to pay extra for it. It was a sauce that should have come with my freekeh, but didnt come there either.He refused to go back and get it because they were closing. Somewhat understandable, but especially when I didnt even have my first sauce, it was quite disappointing. Total ticket was ~$38 and I can tell you spending $9 for this would have felt excessive.Plenty of great Israeli food in NYC. These guys are not one of them.
This the pita you want! Super tasty and highly recommended.
I recently went to North Miznon for brunch with a few girlfriends. The ambiance was lovely & the staff were friendly & helpful. The challah french toast was to. die. for. (seriously, dont leave w/o trying the french toast!) The eggplant shakshuka was also a big hit at our table. The 3 spicy dips w/ fresh sourdough is also a must try to start. Great brunch option for a date or small group. I recommend sitting at the bar so you can watch the chefs in action.
Look, the cauliflower is great but this place is a shadow of the original in Paris. Three times the price with a much more limited food selection and a totally sterile ambiance. Honestly this place makes me sad as I was very excited to see that one of my favorite Parisian places was coming to NYC; however unlike being anything like the original it’s just a sanitized American version with none of the charm and, again, like three times the price.
We went here a few times when they first opened and loved the pitas and the whole menu. We just went back for the first time since the summer and they’ve changed the menu to remove the pitas and move to a more expensive, entree based menu. I was really disappointed with the menu in general and what I ordered specifically. I really miss the pitas and i heard every other table that sat down around us asking for them as well. Won’t be going back.
WORDS CAN NOT DESCRIBE THE GENIUS OF EYAL SHANI! Everyone must tast this food. Highly recommended by me is the signature cauliflower and any of the fish dishes. The pita is fire flames!! My husband loves the folded cheeseburger in a pita. Just go and try it for yourself, try anything. The staff is also like family! Love them all.
Amazing experience!! Great food, everything was so fresh and tasted delicious!! I had the mezze which had falafel, Baba Ganoosh and Bulgarian cheese assorted with fresh veggies. My friends had the Kebab and loved it. Cool staff and awesome vibe, great for a night out with friends as well as for a date since its not too loud.
Shameful service. Mean to curious toddlers. Walked in excited to order a falafel sandwich, something Miznon is known for offering and was told “we don’t do that here”, dismissively. Very dissatisfied with the overall service and staff. Not returning to “The North” location, where they clearly do not know how to do Customer service! A different Miznon, one not worth visiting.Luckily, the food is still good but will be returning to the positive, energetic vibe of the Chelsea Market location in the future.
Just had the worst experience at Miznon North. It honestly felt like the staff and the manager could care less about customer service.We were greeted well and promptly seated but 20 mins in, no one had come by to even offer us water. We had to walk up to the waitress and ask to be served.10 mins into ordering (30 mins in), we still dont have water and had to go up to the waitress again asking to be served.Over the next 15 mins, 3 out of the 4 dishes we ordered were served and the waitress gave us some pita apologizing for the wait.Fast forward another 30 mins, everyone has eaten and were still waiting for the 4th dish. When we call for the manager, we get a pretty basic apology saying they are transitioning to a full service restaurant and everyone is adjusting to the change. We asked her to please get us the 4th order as soon as possible and the check since we just wanted to leave at this point.We get the check and 10 mins later a to go box saying heres your order to go on the house. Which is a nice gesture except they gave us the wrong order. When we let the manager know on the way out, she told us that they ran out of the dish we ordered for the night. Its just crazy how it took them over an hour after we ordered to let us know they dont have the dish we ordered.My entire takeaway from this experience is just how little they care about customer service, and how much they care about giving us excuses in their defence. Never going back and dont recommend anyone to either.
Stumbled on this gem. Food is made fresh daily and was excellent!
If I could give Miznon North less than one star I would. This is a restaurant that charges exorbitant prices, and does not offer seating to everyone who orders food--and, mind you, several of their dishes cannot be carried out. My family and I left a $50 meal behind, uneaten, because we could not get a table. The staff was overwhelmed and, although friendly, overall unhelpful. You could not pay me to return to Miznon on the UWS. The worst, most nightmarish brunch experience imaginable with children in tow. Everyone in the place looked haggard and defeated and exhausted--no one wants to fight for a table to eat their overpriced cauliflower!
I checked the menu for fun again and even more changes were made!!! No take out now and the prices are absurd. The beef stew for lunch is $31. Laughable. In a pita it used to be $14!! Thieves. I was there at least once a week. The four star rating is prob fake. Scroll down more on yelp. I see you lost a lot of regulars.
I think it just opened, so Ill cut them a little slack, but I found the wait frustratingly long for 2pm on a weekend. There was only one person behind the cash register taking orders, which suggests to me they might have been a bit understaffed. I thought the cauliflower was delicious but was disappointed to see that my Ruben Pita was covered in mustard despite that not being an ingredient listed on the menu description. They should list everything because you never know when a customer, like me, will be disappointed by an item thats there but not listed.
Replaced the suddenly-closed Aroma on 72nd Street. Like Aroma, they have a large menu and counter service. Unlike Aroma they dont have a readable menu writ large on the wall - you gotta grab one from the cashier. Food, which is basically pita sandwiches, hits the spot, not too small and most assuredly not too large. Better than Aroma? Jury is out on that. Still more convenient and quiet than Starbucks for having a job interview on your phone? Dont know about that because I havent tried that yet. Will miss the chocolate with every cup of coffee though.
The chef who comes up with their recipes is a true culinary genius. The rotisserie chicken pita is out of this world, the recipe is world class high cuisine, every bite is heavenly. and Im not even starting to mention the other items on their menu.
Incredible meal. Really everything you want when you’re in the mood for Mediterranean or just good food in general. Make sure you get the sourdough with crème fraiche, the spicy platter and beetroot carpaccio. The whole branzino was one of the best i have ever had. It comes Out on a firey cast iron platter with vegetables all roasted and then charred to perfection. I loved this place so much I’m going back a night later to make sure other people experience it.
We came to this place after trying their Chelsea Market location. Our experience here was horrible. The food came after 30 minutes and the missed half of my partners order. The food was bland. The waiter was trying his best and comped one of our appetizers. I would not recommend this place.
Beef stew and cauliflower was very good and different. The loud music (they turned it down when asked), the long wait for the food, the draft from the entrance door and the non existent thank you from the wait staff will make it unlikely we will return.
Still a new place, one on UWS - needs improvement, had wine but was kinda watered down, needs more passion by the chef/s for veg options. I am a vegetarian but Im not just gonna eat a huge cauliflower, world famous or not, please. And just a huge pepper, same, not gonna eat it, I didnt have it sent it back, my suggestion to chef/s - need to put in some creativity and sophistication if you are on the UWS. Service is ok, staff seemed overwhelmed, had to keep asking for everything including paper napkins, water.
Wish they had more consideration for their neighbors.The back terrace is so loud you can hear the noise from several buildings away. Absolutely NO social distancing going on. No masks. Loud, drunken parties every night, plus weekend brunches. Miznon, get an overhead awning to help contain the noise!. Have some respect for the neighbors who cant live in peace. Its SO loud.Super inconsiderate!! No peace from the obnoxious non-stop noise, drunken singing & laughter. Avoid this awful place.
Very chaotic service. Diddnt get our order right. Brought stuff to the table that we diddnt order. Food ok but very pricey.. disorganized mess.. for what it is gave us a check that wasnt ours..for $$$ more than our bill.... too bad because the uws needs some quality restaurants..
Love this place. Literally every thing on the menu is Michelin star worthy! Isaac, the spinach was to die 4! Keep up the good work! And Rotem you are the best bartender ever ❤️ stay classy 🤩🕺
Good placeThe food delicious
Inventive and delicious! Entire team has such a cool vibe, which added to the whole experience. Can’t wait to come back!
Schnitzel Schnitzel Schnitzel is a MUST TRY HERE ... P.Sz it feeds two people
My boyfriend is an Israeli go loves Israeli food and drags me with him.I can honestly say the second place in Chelsea is much better.Some of the dishes came out room temperature where is the other place you get them freshly hot.Last thing we got for dessert is the chocolate banana, they said it’s with Israeli chocolate Nutella, but there is no such thing, it’s a chocolate spread that for some reason Israelis grew up on that doesn’t even have cacao.
Love this place!! So happy that they opened one here and I don’t need to go all the way to Chelsea Market. The ingredients are soooo fresh and the prices descent. The folded cheeseburger is one of the best that you can fine in the city!
Was as good as all the other miznons until they changed the menu and turned it into just another vaguely Mediterranean joint with insane prices. Why would you build a multinational empire on pitas and get rid of them? I wont be going back to this location. Disappointed that Eyal Shani would sully his name by signing off on this. The UWS desperately needed a good pita joint, but if you were ever going to price gouge people using a name that stands for quality and affordability, this is the neighborhood.
Honestly the worst service I’ve had in years in New York - Not only the worst waiter but they were also out of almost everything on the menu and the food we did have wasn’t even good. Don’t waste your time going here
We had a wonderful birthday dinner at North Miznon. The food was tasty in generous portions and the service was friendly and efficient.The sourdough bread was warm and very fresh with a side of a thick and precise tahini sauce.The ratatouille was also good and went well with the bread.The zaatar chicken was huge, very tender and flavorful. The large pita it sat on absorbed the chickens juices and flavors and was delicious.Last but not least, the cheese cake was absolutely divine. One of the best I ever had.Thanks for a great evening!
We made an order for 4 dishes, did not receive a fork knife and spoon, the food came cold, forgot to send us the sauces, we called and left us on the line for 47 minutes and finally hung up the phone !! Shocking service, do not recommend at all !!
An outstanding place. Atmosphere is extremely good. Food is Amazing by Eyal Shani. Mix of tastes and cultures. Simply come to relax and enjoy it all! Service is terrific. overall - WOW.
Authentic food, carefully thought-through choices, spot-on ingredients and presentation . The mix in concept is clear, unapologetically direct & all-around delicious extraordinary service and attentiveness to customers & their wishes, needs, comments. Amit and his high-energy team impressed us with their unpretentiousness, can-do attitude, generosity & proactive attitude. Will come back for sure, to try every single item on the menu.
We had such a blast there we actually came back two days later. You can tell they really care about the ingredients - everything’s super fresh, full of flavor and handled with the utmost care. The mezze is really fun to start with and the branzino is out of this world!If you’re in the UWS this place is a must!
The service was great; the food was disappointing as we had expected the pita sandwiches that were so addicting! Food now seems a bit overpriced, craving those pita sandwiches downtown in Chelsea
Do not order !!!!! The worst service I have received in my life, the pitas come with a lot of tahini and less vegetables and meat, regarding the cheesecake, we ordered 2 pieces they came burnt with a bitter taste, do not order from them, expensive and not worth the money, it is better to order from elsewhere And do not get burnt food!
The food was excellent and the atmosphere there was amazing! The branzino dish I ordered there was the best I ever eat my life. I think this is the best place in the upper west! highly recommended 🥇
Portions insultingly small, dishes not done as well as their Israeli counterparts. The menu is that of Shanis Abraxes North, not Hamiznon. Service, while very friendly, was too slow.
Delicious food with disappointing service. We told the waitress several times about food allergies at the table and she still brought out a pasta with cheese and never returned when we asked to check if we could replace it.
Beautiful food. Packed full of happy people with happy bellies. The branzino is a must. Delicious. Perfect pre or post theatre dinner. Not too fancy or too casual
I didnt get a chance to eat at the restaurant,but I was able to talk to the chef and he seems very passionate about producing amazing food for patrons.
Had the ratatouille and the lavan (cauliflower) sandwiches. Unusual and delicious. The Folded Cheeseburger in a Pita was also really unusual and delicious wrist-dripping experience.
Great food. Outstanding service. Socially distant outdoor seating. Will definitely go again.
Terrrrrrible service, looooong wait for food, painfully loud — but food was good when it finally came after 90 mins. 30 mins to get water and menus. You get the idea.
The Flatbread was amazing and I ate two, unforntualy my entree was very gamy and pricey as well
Delicious dinner! Top quality ingredients, unique and careful Mediterranean touch, and an overall fun and casual vibe. We will go back!
Great food, fun vibe, they messed up a few things with our order thus 4 vs 5 stars.
This is hands down the best restaurant in the uws. We finally have some good food!! Get the branzino and the beets. You will thank me! The lunch is especially delicious.
Great staff and food but a little bit expensive for the this type of dishes.
Amazing food! Great vibe!
Terrible service. Spent 2 hours there and most food that we ordered never arrived including all of our main courses. Took some stuff of bill but left the place hungry as they couldnt sort it out. Will not be going back here
Amazing spot. As an Israeli, thats great to see how the vibe and atmosphere can be exported from Tel Aviv to NYC :) good food, great service, good days!
Worth your time! Professional and easygoing staff.
Good fresh food, but in the location on upper west side NYC, the Israeli flavor starting to disappear. I hope they will not forget the origin..
Its not a regular miznon but a different format, more expensive and none of the original street food dishes in a pita. Sad they changed to a regular mediocre yet overpriced restaurant
The food is super fresh and delicious , the vibe so relaxed. Go!
A great place the broken chicken pita was amazing
Went here for a birthday. Terrible service. Food we ordered never came. Promised to make it up with drinks and dessert which never happened either. Would not go back here
Good vibe, perfect food, good portions.
The food was ok, not great, and needed salt and acid. The pita got a bit soggy and should have been toasted.
The best kept secret on the UWS💓
Had a wonderful experience. Food and drinks was the best we had in the city.Thank you Rotem and Yoni for great evening!Will definitely be back.
Top quality food and service.One of the best places to be in new York.Chef Nadavs hands is pure gold.
Love this place vibe. The food is excellent. I wish the portions were slightly bigger.
Delicious, fresh food. Nice menu. TERRIFIC, friendly wait staff. Especially ELI!
Incredible food. Unique, light, healthy. Kind service as well. Superb addition to the upper west side :)
We felt like we were back in Israel.
Delicious healthy inventive food. Very good casual & friendly service. Too loud. A bit expensive.
Awesome staff FOH/ Bar and service
Wonderful restaurant with a personal approach. Food and wine is excellent. Staff is lovely.
I love this place and really missed the burger with baked cheese... please bring it back to the menu!!! :)
ExcellentExcellentExcellentThe food the service the atmosphereThe music all come together in a great place
Amazing service, we had just he best server, the food was great, wonderful atmosphere, you must go..
Unfortunately, not the same as the Chelsea market Miznon...great staff, but the food was too expensive, and not as good as it once was
Great change from pita menu to dining menu.Feels like home with the “Abraxas north” style
Food is outrageously good. Get the cauliflower. Excited to come back and try other things.
Everything we ordered was good, except salt was missing in every dish
Great food!! Our server has very helpful and the place has a great vibe
Loved this Israeli restaurant! Would recommend the Tatami desert
The new menu is trying to be so cute its distracting but the food is delicious and wonderful.
Lovely and lively! Oh yea, They also have good food 🕺❤️
Love it! Authentic Israeli food, perfect flavor of the Mediterranean
Relaxed atmosphere, delicios food. I liked it.
With an open kitchen you can see what is going on in the kitchen and tonight there was a lot of talking and laughing going on back there and a lot of waiting going on in the front of the house.
Great food, very friendly service. Perfect for celebrating with lots of friends
Ate the cauliflower plate it was a yummy but small dish
Amazing food and ambiance, especially for Saturday brunch!
Eyal Shani’s restaurants are always delicious
Very disappointing. OK food, high price and service that still needs improvement.
Slightly unconventional upscalish casual vegetable forward Israeli cuisine.
Delicious. Delightful outside seating and friendly staff
Delicious n friendly

2022-05-06Service was great and the outdoor upstairs patio is a wonderful atmosphere. Mixed reviews on the food. Really liked the focaccia and the okra dish. The rest were just ok. For many of the dishes I would get big pieces of coarse sea salt which threw me off. It was either too salty or it felt like the salt wasn’t fully incorporated into the flavors of the dishes.

2021-12-28Been there a number of times, and can say that North Miznon is one of the best Israeli restaurants in the city!Food is fresh, authentic with an Israeli twist, staff is absolutely incredible- and the overall experience is just awesome!!We just keep coming back there !!Shout out to the Chef and restaurant manager Nadav Greenberg, for making such great food, creating such a great environment and who’s always making sure we’re having the best time!Thank you guys at North Miznon 🤙🏼

2022-06-20Good food, nice atmosphere and super friendly staff. All plates are supposed to be shared but honestly they were too small and a bit expansive. Branzino fish and eggplant were super tasty!

2021-12-29A perfect location if you have an opera or ballet to catch at Lincoln Center, since restaurants are always fully booked. I can understand the negative reviews of this place and vice versa. I thoroughly enjoyed our dinner, but it was very expensive for the portion size of the dishes. We ordered our meal tapas style. I love sharing dishes because you get to taste a variety of foods, but all of us were very hungry, and it felt we weren’t really full from our dinner. I have figured it out delicious dinner without breaking your budget.A meal for four diners: Fresh golden Focaccia, envelope burning leeks, mushroom pasta, the best branzino, lamb shawarma ( a special that night), lamb ragu pasta and a piece of cabbage cake melting into veg stock. We all shared this and you would think it’s a lot of food, but it wasn’t really.My advice is not order tapas style. I would definitely get the cabbage cake and you can share the branzino if there are two diners. The lamb and roots is something I would have ordered, but they didn’t have the portion for 4 people. If it is available, I would get that and just the cabbage. Trust me, the cabbage is out of this world. The mushroom pasta and envelope leeks are too expensive for what it is. The leeks are delicious, but the portion was small. The cocktails are delicious. I ordered the Malka Whiskey. We had room for dessert, so we each ordered our own. My BF had the chocolate mousse and I had the lebanese nights. I loved the lebanese nights, and pair it with coffee because I needed a little pick me up for the ballet after dinner.

2022-01-30My husband and I have enjoyed many meals here now and our meal last night was no exception.We sat at the bar and had such a wonderful time, and the food was just perfect!Some of our favorites are the beetroot carpaccio, the branzino (of course), and our absolute number one, the melting cabbage. All of this and a nice glass of wine or a cocktail makes for a perfect date night.We also love the music and atmosphere, it is playful and fun, a perfect mix for a night out.

2022-02-16Cozy Upper West side restaurant serving modern riffs on Israeli and Middle Eastern food. Sat at bar.Staff is warm, friendly and most importantly very competent.The food is excellent. They take a very elevated approach on many communal and peasant food. The results arent a mind-blowing sensation but instead makes you feel the dishes were done right, with lots of love.Also the amount of food you get is hardy and leaves you very satisfied.Perfect place to go with a small group so lots of dishes can be ordered and shared.

2021-10-26For the food they serve and the price they charge, I wish this resto would match the service and atmosphere. For an Israeli restaurant, its off putting to be hearing backstreet boys and Shakira all night. For the prices they charge for tiny portions of food, I expect a lot more sophistication than cardboard plates and clumsy servers.The servers kept coming back to our table all throughout the night asking did you order the 7 clouds? did you order the branzino? did you order the lamb? The dishes came out one at a time, spaced out so far in between each other that one person would be done eating by the time the next dish arrives. It would have been great to eat together. Tables and chairs were cheap too.Dont get me wrong - food was AMAZING. Everything was cooked well. Just expect to pay high end prices with a fast food restaurant experience.

2022-03-05I don’t have enough good things to say about this place. After trying their location at Chelsea market and being blown away me and my husband decided to book dinner reservations at this location. Although many things were sold out by the time we were there that didn’t stop us from trying all the other options and everyone was to. Die. For. Five stars cool dishes and every one was delicious!

2022-06-24I think the food here is always very strong. The spices and freshness of the food is what makes this a staple for me. My only complaints are that sometimes the menu changes or they don’t have certain dishes i want on the menu. Other than that, the service is great, the vibe is cute, and YOU MUST get the zatar chicken!!!

2022-04-01This restaurant should be embarrassed. The servings are insultingly small at prices that are eye popping. A salad they charge $21 for - literally, 3 spoonfuls of cut up radishes and cucumbers - that they claim can be shared. Service is gruff and abrupt.Total came to $320 for food that is served on cardboard, over salted and poor portion sizes. This was for a few “salads” and 2 glasses of wine (total amongst 3 people)We eat out a lot - don’t eat here - it’s pretty shameful and best to avoid.
