Zatar Cafe & Bistro Bushwick

Food was amazing, delicious, service was really good and friendly. I had the croissant with feta and Apricot jam- might be the best croissant I've had in the United States, not even kidding. I also had a Pistachio Iced Latte, delicious, strong espresso. Chicken Shwarma was huge portion, amazing value, flavorful and savory. As far as atmosphere, I sat outside and there's only so much they can do about the noise. it has a wooden trellis above to shade you from the sun, but hearing the train and being so close to the street isnt the best. Inside is a very very cute vibe. Dont be confused, I will be back its local, family owned and worth every penny- I'll just be dinig indoors from now on haha :) They have brunch, lunch, dinner and a large selection of middle eastern desserts and pastries. Perfect spot for a night cap.

I've been here a few times over the years. They have expanded in between visits but the food is always very good. I love the fresh pita bread and the servers are consistently friendly. I think the prices and portions are decent especially with the prices of food going up everywhere.

This is honestly my spot for a quick and tasty meal. I live for the salmon or chicken kebab and the lamb - and the zaatar nachos are also a fan favorite. The interior is no frills and not the most inviting - but quite and typically empty with the except one or two other parties. On a good day, Zatar is a solid 5. On a bad day, eh - I guess it just depends on who’s in the kitchen.
