Brought to Bay Ridge by Abdul Elenani and his wife, Ayat Masoud, this is a small spot that shows mighty care and pride in its cooking. Housed on a busy avenue, a glass façade with vines and strung-up lights sets it apart; inside, the space is basic but well maintained, and oozes with all the neighborhood vibes. Picture walls covered in murals and a long counter where guests can watch flatbreads being formed on the dome-shaped saj and shawarmas rotating on a spit. Orders are typically placed at the back and the food is delivered to your table. This Palestinian menu features dishes made with heart and soul. While the classics are indeed represented, the real draw includes such specialties as mansaf and maklouba, showcasing solid product and ace execution.
