Reviews for Balade Your Way in New York, NY
Overall taste was good, however don't expect great service. Employees were not friendly and forgot 4 of my items. Falafel... sandwich was good, however the falafels were falling apart. Cheese Manouche was good but was expecting the vegetables that Iordered to be added to the sandwich itself, not just placed on the side. Cheese Rakakat were pricey but generously filled (theywere extremely oily though and the box was also drenched in oil). Expected to receive crunchy Rakakat but instead got soggyones. Read more
Tonight I had the grilled lamb, and some of the juicy Tawook chicken, on a bed of brown rice and salad. . . . Hummus, baba... ganouj, cucumber and tomato completed my feast. . . I could have asked for all the toppings, at no extra charge. . . . It wasthe best! I have dined here more than 400 times! Every meal has been excellent! FIVE STARS! Read more
Cool place to have some tasty, but standard Libanese food. It?s fast and has a nice interior. So it?s a good place to calm down... after visiting the chaotic time square. Also the juice options are good to charge up on some vitamins. Read more
Came here for lunch. Appreciated the quick service during a busy lunch rush in the city. I got a pita wrap and a friend got the... salad. Both were flavorful. I also got the baklava which was tasty. Read more
All the meats are so dry it's unbelievable! I understand that in order to keep any shawerma juicy you gotta cut it from the spit... for each customer which is obviously not convenient, but it's so dry it's inedible without the sauces. The appetizers are verydelicious. Read more
Delicious Lebanese food! The food has so much flavor. The Muhalabieh dessert was delicious. Glad they didn't forget the rose... water. They have other fresh goodies like baklava and pita chips. Read more
We did a pick-up order from Balade - Your Way via Seamless and the process went smoothly. The decor is modern, bright and cozy... but with limited indoor seating. The direction on the menu is clear and easy to follow: choose base, protein and additionaltopping if needed. We had one rice bowl and one salad with Shawarma & falafel to share between 2 people as a quick fixdinner. The food was pretty solid with reasonable price. We would recommend people who work in the neighborhood to have lunchthere. Read more
I ordered a takeout: zaatar manakish (thyme with sesame seeds) with tomatoes and mint. Pretty tasty! The dough is not too thick... and not too thin, just about right. I recommend you try this with labneh (strained yogurt). I also sampled the sfeeha,samboosek, falafel, and spinach pie (ftayer). I recommend going for the samboosek and sfeeha, with a lemon squeeze on top. Theywere absolutely delicious. The ftayer was ok, and while the falafel is not like the Lebanese version, it's not bad either.Finally, I tried the fattouch and grape leaves. The fattouch comes with olive oil / lemon/ molasses pomegranate dressing(yummy!) while the grape leaves are stuffed with rice and tomatoes. The food is excellent here, if you want real Lebanese food,this place will not disappoint. Read more
