    The Israeli breakfast is delicious. All components of the dish (eggs, pita, labneh, Israeli salad, hash browns) go together really well. The hash browns are especially great - don't order it w/o them.

    This is one of my favorite brunch places in the area. Brunch is served till 4pm everyday (Try the Eggs Florentine). You get free refills on regular coffee! The restaurant is open & very homey.

    Trendy atmosphere and delicious food. Start with the hummus for sure. The chicken shawarma comes on a flatbread with spinach and tomato. Great place for a date or just a nice dinner with some wine.

    Sabich Bowl and pita was excellent! Loved that it was served with amba! Nice outdoor seating! Halloumi salad was decent but probably wouldn’t order again. Service was so warm and friendly!

    Best Israeli brunch in NYC (or a close second to Café Orlin) - worth a decent wait on 5th Ave. Burekas are not to be missed. Don't be afraid to opt for a pita sandwich like the Sabich (pictured here).

    Super tasty brunch in Park Slope. Get a Gorilla coffee a block away while you wait. The Mediterranean Crispy Dough with scrambled eggs, tomato, and spicy harissa was massive and tasty.

    Incredible menu, I took a picture of it to recreate the plates but who ever gets around to doing that when they know it won’t be as good. I loved the shakshuka, my boyfriend loved the Bureka plate.

    Free refills of la colombe coffee, try the falafel, Israeli breakfast. If you don’t want to wait, sit at the communal table up front, it’s a beautiful spot for morning people-watching.

    Starring all your brunch favorites: shakshuka, potato pancakes, Israeli breakfast, etc. My friend wouldn’t stfu about the Norwegian Eggs (in a good way). Table Labneh and Hummus, of course.

    Some of the best burekas, though I’ve had better Israeli salad. Came at 12:30 and was surprised they could sit my party of 6 immediately. Unlimited coffee is nice but shouldn’t every brunch have this?

    Great food. Great service. Everything is fresh and delicious. Norwegian eggs Benedict- to die for. Brunch -7 days a week. Very busy on weekends. 1 hour wait. Highly recommended!

    Amazing Mediterranean food! Maybe the best I've had. The fried cheese, fried zucchini, hummus, Mediterranean salad, and chicken schnitzel were all unbelievable.

    The host suggested the crispy dough with scrambled eggs. Didn't disappoint. Harissa that came with it was super spicy, yum! Incredible, wish we got 2 orders! The burekas were okay-not wowed.

    A reliable place for brunch, obviously, but also dinner. The small dishes are very flavorful and you can't go wrong with a few, 3 per person. The meatballs in pomegranate syrup are very nice.

    Went for brunch but this is what a brunch place should be- a big variety of many different choices. May not be the best choice for a "boozy" brunch but there are options. Staff and food are great.

    Miriam is the holy grail of brunch, whether you want your usual french toast and benedicts (get the burekas). The environment is homey but lively. If you’re looking for a party, get a pitcher sangria.

    I had the Israeli breakfast today and the combination of flavors paired well together. Next time, I'll go for the sabich (not a brunch item)—looked fantastic even though not on the brunch menu.

    Middle Eastern eatery Miriam does wonders with Mediterranean plates, and from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. daily, you can score mezze dishes for half off, provided you sit at the bar. Read more

    Smittened. A lot of middle eastern breakfast choices. My new Brooklyn fix. No need to trek to cafe Mogador or Orlin in east village when Brooklyn has it all and without the tourists.

    Perfect food for a snowy night. The beef stew on a cold day is perfect. The chicken and cous cous is a no-brainer, although I wish they were served in a tagine together

    Overall good food, good staff and good environment. You get a complimentary coffee with breakfast which is nice. A little loud and always very crowded so get there early or prepare to wait.

    Brunch served 10a-4p. Full bar, cozy atmosphere. Expect a wait during Sa/Su 11a-2p. Delicious authentic middle eastern cuisine. MUST HAVE: Israeli Breakfast.

    Far and away one of the most popular places for shakshuka in the city. The zippy tomato sauce is allowed to shine through, with sweetness from onions and peppers. Read more

    Very good and fairly authentic Israeli/middle eastern food. Definitely get the Burekas and Mediterranean Crispy Dough (Malawach for those in the know)

    The potato pancakes with labneh yogurt is delicious. I have a hard time ordering anything else--though it's all quite good.

    Mezz platter is easy for two to share and easily vegetarian. Skip the mushrooms though.

    You find yourself dejected, or more just resigned. Wandering. So you wander in. You're alone no more. The Mediterranean salad asked for your hand in marriage. You will say yes.

    Great happy hour at the bar 5-8, 2-for-1 wine and all appetizers are half off ($2.50 each). Delicious and cheap! Staff was super friendly too.

    The herb eggs are amazing as they should be at $3 an egg. The other goodies that accompany the eggs are no less delicious.
