Worth it

  • From my guide, updated October 2023.

Shoo Shoo is a charming Mediterranean restaurant serving a Tel Aviv-inspired menu with incredible dips. Opened in 2018 the restaurant offers organic grass-fed fare and some of the best falafel in NYC. The menu consists of shareable plates designed to foster a communal dining experience, encouraging folks to order multiple dishes.

Local’s Tip: To the side of the restaurant you’ll notice a passageway headed towards the basement of Shoo Shoo. This is actually a speakeasy! Make sure to check it out after eating some of the best falafel in NYC.

Worth it, says Antonina. Been? Say if you agree.
