In Short
Moroccan ceiling sconces cast a soft glow over simple, streamlined tables and the long bar, which is lined with green and blue tiles. The menu spans the Middle East, but you won't find falafel. The inventive Mediterranean fare includes grouper baked in tahini, chicken shwarma with spinach and mango chutney, and lamb kabobs skewered on rosemary stems. Similarly adventurous items, like malabi, an almond and rose water custard, and goat-cheese stuffed figs, are offered for dessert.

We ate there last night. The food tasted good, the decor is funky morrocan and the service was fine. They offered half price wine because it was a weekday. Overall it is well priced. It is nothing fancy or expensive. The wine came and the waitress screwed off the top. I found this surprising . I expected at least a plastic cork. We would go back.

Miriam is the best place to go in the neighborhood for low-key yet interesting brunch and dinner. The wine list isn't so bad either, and the staff is great too.

Miriam has never disappointed in the food department. The hummus, fried cheese, jalapeno cheese appetizers are all favorites. Every entree (I usually order fish) has been inventive and delicious. The wines are interesting, and I can usually find something I enjoy drinking. The service has been mixed... sometimes it's terrific and other times a bit slow/forgetful. All in all, this is one of my favorites in Park Slope.
