I had a lovely dinner here on a Thursday night! The food was delicious, the service was above and beyond, and the space was elegant and welcoming. My friend and I shared the following.: 1)...

A Yiddish term that means the perfect housewife and mother. She’s the fearless emotional center of her family, who makes sure her table is not only full of gorgeous food, but also full of friends, love, laughter. Chef Einat Admony opened Balaboosta to share her vivacious personal food, full of sun-drenched inspiration from Israel and her family’s Persian and Yemenite background. A reboot of the original Balaboosta, this new incarnation (now at 611 Hudson Street,) is the next expression of Admony’s modern Israeli concept. Partner and husband Stefan Nafziger presents a curated list of top-notch wines from the region’s most ambitious winemakers. Beginning with Taïm (serving arguably the city’s best falafel at their five locations,) and now with Balaboosta and their new North African couscous restaurant Kish-Kash, the couple brings the best of Israeli spirit from their hearts to your table.

My friend and I were walking around the west village and we came across this bustling restaurant. We liked the menu, the staff were friendly, and we decided to sit at an outdoor table to people...

Everything we ate was incredible. The skirt steak was cooked to perfection. The salad was amazing. The mint lemonade was refreshing. Desert was the best. Wow! Service was exceptional.

Walked in and snagged a seat out front. Everything was delicious, service was friendly. The creme brûlée with halva was an excellent recommendation.

Was able to grab reservations for a Saturday evening the day before, which was nuts to me. We got a table in the wine cellar, which was a regular room with a wall of wines haha, nothing cellar...
