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.

Great restaurant for authentic lebanese food! The service was fantastic, the food tasted amazing, and the restaurant had a really nice vibe. Their Za'atar, olives, and olive oil are all imported from Lebanon. I'll definitely be going back next time I'm in the city!

True lebanese food.Every time I order food I love it more, the spinach pie( fatayer) remind me of my mom’s, crispy, thin and filled with good amount of spinach . The kebbe! The shawarma, the tabouleh.. if you are looking for true lebanese food you should go there, worth every penny!

OK, seriously what an incredible place. It's probably one of the cheapest and best bangs for your buck Med. food I've had in the city (that's not the street meat carts). Portion sizes for the dips are huge, 100% recommend the muhammara and the hummus! The real star is the atmosphere and the setup. A very contemporary style with a unique seating experience. Suggest making reservations though, as there is limited group seating (only 3 tables for parties of 5 or more). Staff are extremely friendly as well. Overall an incredible experience.

Great vibes, great food, and even better service.4 of us got dinner and ordered:Chicken Shwarma: Pita Panini greatness. Get the side of cucumber yogurt, it's huge & a great dip for everything on the table.Chicken Kebob: Grilled chicken n veggie w/ riceBeef Serloin Fried Pastries: Delicious mini empanadasFalafel: crispy goodness. Tastes a tad dif than your typical falafelString beans: Decent side dish. Vegan optionBaklava: Softer than your usual, which makes it even better!Spicey Shrimp: Outstanding flavor. Must order vegan appetizerWaiters were amazing all night. Very accomodating. We had a few of the Levanese beers, they were great and we got the chilled glasses. Money moves

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.

Went here for lunch and we got there just when they opened so it was empty and we had to wait to be seated, which wasn’t an issue. Finally got seated and I got a salad(forgot what it’s called) with chicken on the side and it was pretty darn amazing. I would definitely recommend going here if you’re looking for a low key place and some amazing food.

The seasoning on the Chicken was awesome and went well with the garlic sauce. The gyro meat and cheese rolls tasted great with the Tzatziki. The sauce for the beef Kabob is delicious. Prep and delivery time with no issues. Delivered directly to my room. I apologize for the dimly lit photos.

I love the environment very classy and clean. Really good customer service. The food cant complain, excellent quality. As a lebanese man this restaurants makes me feel like home. Keep it people. The price is a little high up there but for the quality of food you get it makes it up.

Had a wonderful time at Naya that started with a wonderfully warm hostess chatting to us about the menu while we waited for a table to open up. We ended up going with her suggestion (mixed grill) and couldn't have been happier. The only sour note were the Lebanese wine and beer we ordered--we didn't finish the glass of either.

I went there with a credible recommendation and guidance from my friend and I am really happy that I did. The restaurant is modern and stylish, would make a good stop both for business lunch and date night. The superb quality of foods and their service come almost without saying. Definitely worth the price.

Naya is an exquisite restaurant. The food is delicious. I came here for an early mother's day dinner and was not disappointed in my selection. Our party tried many dishes. The falafel were some of the best I have ever eaten. The lamb chops were very good. The potatoes were amazing. My friend enjoyed his lentil soup quite a bit. The prices are what they are, it's a nice restaurant with a wonderful aesthetic and phenomenal food. Not unreasonable by any means. A worthy spot to visit.

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

Fantastic food for a reasonable price. I know the cuisine well and can confirm that it is very well executed. Far from sticking solely to the typical middle Eastern restaurant dishes they have ventured into the dishes you would actually eat at home such as the Kibbe Labnieh and others. We had the Hummus with beef shawarmaArayess LahmeFatouche saladeKibbe labniehBaked eggplants We really liked all of them with the fatouche and Kibbe standing out. Highly recommended. The location is a narrow space however well designed with glass to give a more spacious impression.

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.

Love the food and the service but very disappointed in my last experience there. I accidentally left my iPhone there so called several times to ask if someone turned in my phone and they said no. When I finally got access to Find My Phone app it said it was in the restaurant. When I went back there to say my app said its here they kept saying no until they went into the kitchen and miraculously found my phone. I'm very disappointed to know that a restaurant at that level will have untrustworthy workers working there. I cant see myself going back there.

Great service. Authentic food, and I can say that since I am first generation American born to two Lebanese people 😁 I would like a little more spice to the kebbeh nayah but that's my preference. Mulakhaeh was extremely tasty. They even have arak to finish out the great meal 💕

NAYA Mezze & Grill is a great addition to New York scant yet growing Mediterranean options! We walked in and the chef greeted us and was very sweet, as was the server who helped us all night. Amazing food, can't beat the price or service! Highly recommended if you're in the area and craving great Mediterranean food!

Waited for 1 hour, and no food served. The waiter blamed us didn't order appetizer, hence we needed to wait that long. I don't know what to say about it. So we left. BTW it was my birthday, and we picked this restaurant, expecting a nice dinner. But I guess it is just a wrong choice. So we went to Ravagh which is several blocks away. Why not? It is the same food, also it has better/spacious seating place, nice waiter, and super fast service and fantastic price/quality food. It saved my birthday dinner.
