Tanoreen Bay Ridge

Just went for restaurant week and it was great! The food was delicious and plentiful. Loved the fried cauliflower. It was tender in the inside and crispy on the outside. The sauce was also very flavorful and creamy. I ordered the lamb shanks was tender and paired very well with the yogurt dip. Finished it off with the infamous kunefeh. Very cheesy, hearty and super filling. Ate a bit but had to take most of it home. Very large portions. Thumbs 👍

A delicious dinner in a neighborhood gem! The service was welcoming and friendly and the decor was the right mix of casual, homey AND elegant. That second part is harder to achieve than you think. Food was delicious. Half our group had the mint iced tea and the other half had the hibiscus iced tea (I can vouch that the hibiscus was great - both are unsweetened FYI). We started with the fried cauliflower steak appetizer (must get) and the special fried haloumi and watermelon salad (very delicious). We shared the Kibbie Jazariyyeh (a beef and carrot stew with kibbe - phenomenal!); chicken Fetti (like a pilaf and my favorite entree. The portion size on this could feed three easily.); and the Baked Kafta Tahini (ok...unanimously our least favorite entree of the evening). Definitely get the labeneh if available or the yogurt side - elevated every dish. We ended with the knafeh which was solid. It's far out, but worth it!

The best kanafeh in NYC - worth the trek to brooklyn - you should go! Other dishes that were great include the grilled meats, Fetti with extra harissa, and musakhan. Get the labne it's also so good! But the cocktails are not it - but really this is a Palestinian restaurant...they're not cocktail experts.
