6.8/10Middle Eastern

AI-generated summary

The salatim is the meal, unlimited dips, , and people say fill up on it. Add the , regulars call it some of the best in the city. The skewer is where people feel shorted, one small piece of meat on a roughly $50 prix fixe. The eggplant gets better reviews than most of the meats, and the rooftop view of Manhattan is the other reason people go.

  • Biggest letdown of the trip. The salatim looked gorgeous but most of them didn't hit the mark for me. The hummus was too bitter. The pita was just alright. I've had much better pita at other Middle Eastern restaurants. The much-hyped fries tasted pretty mediocre.

  • I think it looked better in pictures, but regardless I still loved the restaurant atmosphere. The salatim was good, but I kept munching on the warm pita and hummus, which were so pleasant. All the meats, whole branzino, and french fries were so fresh and hearty. I liked the food more than I thought I would.

  • I adore Laser Wolf. Everything about it. The only problem was the insufficient size of my stomach. The salatim was fantastic.

  • It's decent. But 90 percent of what you're going to eat is the unlimited sides they give you. The mains are comically small and the desserts are nothing special.

  • but man I love the unlimited hummus and salatim, the steak is so perfectly tender, the rice is god damn delicious, and the fries are some of the best in NYC

  • replying to u/MurrayPloppins: If you’re open to Israeli food, Laser Wolf in Williamsburg is easy to get to from Manhattan, has an amazing view, and fits your price range. And the food is excellent.

    Maybe unpopular opinion but I think LW is soooo overrated. Like they just fill you up with bread and dips and then bring one literal skewer for the main course. Wtf??? Don’t get me wrong, the food is not untasty, but I felt robbed when I realized I paid as much at LW as i did at Cote.

  • It was one of the better meals I’d had in the city. The hummus and baba was very good and the amba wasn’t too cumin-forward which I appreciated. Salatim was great overall.

    It was one of the best eating experiences I've had in NYC. The cocktails were great, the pita and dips were also amazing and unlimited, and grilled meats were fantastic.

  • replying to u/gormar099: i think laser wolf is good, but it's definitely not so good to merit the fact that it's (maybe) the hardest reservation to get in the city

    one skewer is not that much meat, and if you want a second you pay for prix fixe again. Also, they justify price with the Salatim, but no hummus and pita is worth an effective 40 dollars.
