Everything was fantastic in such a warm, welcoming atmosphere. I sat at the counter and enjoyed watching the cooking right in front of me. It’s pretty amazing how they crank that much food out so consistently delicious. The service was attentive and friendly with plenty of recommendations. Thank you!
Loved the food here (and attentive service to boot). The middle eastern spices made the food so delicious. The dips were so creamy and tasty on the Frena (or any of their breads). The chicken wings were our favourite. Can’t fault the crispy squash blossoms, Adana (lamb & beef) on tzatziki & baby artichokes. The small (2) selection of desserts were also good. Overall a great dining experience. Will be trying their other sister restaurants.
We had the BEST experience at Shukette. The ambiance was impeccable (loved the music). Service was welcoming and friendly and so generous. We sat at the counter which was absolutely perfect for watching the amazing chefs do their thing and chatting with other guests. We were given small plates of food from the chef to try that were on the house and we shared with the people next to us so everyone could try. Things we probably would’ve never ordered on our own, but WOW— it was worth it when the chef said “just trust me”. We tried half of the menu and each dish was better then the next. Our favorites were the dips, breads, cherries and the wings. I will be dreaming about this meal until the next time we are in NYC. I’d truly come to the city just to dine here. We had the best time and left so happy!
I knew this restaurant was going to be good, but wow, every dish was outstanding. The beet dip was to die for, so flavorful, and the labneh with strawberries was impossible to stop eating. Everyone at the table kept going back for more. The frena was incredibly fluffy with the perfect crispy bottom. The pea dip was also delicious. Peas are not usually my favorite, but this dish completely changed my mind. The asparagus with the green goddess sauce had the perfect texture, and I could honestly eat that as a side dish with every meal. The grilled fish was the best I have had so far in New York City, and the jeweled rice was the perfect complement to it. The steak kebab had amazing flavor and was the favorite dish for everyone else at the table, but for me, the chicken completely stole the show. It was so juicy, tender, aromatic, and flavorful. Paired with the garlic fluff, I was honestly speechless. The service was just as incredible as the food. I do not remember our server’s name, but she was so attentive and friendly, always making sure we had enough water and that we were enjoying everything. I completely understand why this restaurant made the list of the top 100 best restaurants in New York City in 2025, and I am 100% sure it will continue to deserve its spot.
Definitely worth all the stars! We went a couple minutes before it opens and were able to be seated at the counter. When we left there was a line, so either grab a reservation or go early. There are plenty of counter seats. Every dish is fantastic. * The Frena is MUST. It’s fully and soft like cloud with crispy bottom. * Hummus was the best I’ve ever had. * Squash had this great contrasting texture between the caramelized full-of-fiber skin and the soft, sweet, juicy inside. * Beef kebab was juicy and tender * Fish was marinated with lemon and some herb so it’s lightweight tender and refreshing * we had the ice cream with apple and tahini twist together. I’d prefer it to be all tahini.
