One of the best Middle Eastern restaurants. Fatoosh is one the best Middle-Eastern restaurants I've ever been to, across several states. They have a huge selection of salads and platters at decent prices, whether you want a sandwich or a combo platter. They have warm, fluffy, whole wheat pitas that just can't be beat anywhere. Excellent falafel, moussaka, a perfectly seasoned lentil salad, and a heavenly cauliflower dish whose name I don't know. Always just the right blend of spices, chewiness, and crunchiness for everything - and I've tried everything.

The service is impeccable and the staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. They bring your order out to you family-style, with everything neatly arranged. My friend and I ordered everything off the menu between the two of us, and they came out and pushed two tables together and chuckled at our enormous spread. It really couldn't have been a better experience. On top of that, they also deliver and is great for take-out.

The space itself is trendy and clean, with nice tables and tasteful wall decor. I love that it has a huge window front overlooking busy 5th Avenue; life doesn't really get much better than people-watching while enjoying a great meal. Finally, they have canned diet ginger ale and diet Sunkist in the cooler - rare finds these days!
