Boutros - Broad Channel

Went here because of the good reviews. Had high expectations. Was really disappointing. Not bad in itself, but don't expect Lebanese food. Small portions, high prices and not really refined. Pita was fine.

Came here for brunch and everything we ordered was delicious!! We got the berry smash and mezcal cocktails—both very good and the mezcal drink came to the table on fire. Fun! We shared the mushroom hummus and the labneh appetizer. They were so good and the pita that cane with it was amazing. We both got the short rib shawarma sandwich. Highly recommend!!! The restaurant itself is also very pretty. Will absolutely be back.

I love so many things about Boutros. Being a Cobble Hill native, originally from Yemen, I was so happy to see a middle eastern fine dining establishment open on Atlantic avenue. The fatoush is probably the best version I’ve ever had phenomenal. Their take on felafel and batata harra very notable. The service has been lovely each time we visit. The one thing that I didn’t understand, however, was the overpowering use of cumin (and perhaps touch of fenugreek? in the hummus dishes. The hummus was missing bite (garlic, lemon, salt, sumac something we tried the short rib, mushroom and plain hummus dishes. All with the same cumin profile. Brunch there was equally tasty (though I will say my omelette was completely unsalted it was, however, very herbaceous . All in all, very inventive and thoughtful menu will definitely be eating here again.

Provides credence the the principle of simplicity over variety. Boutros has a menu that's on the shorter side but everything they do is done very well. You can't go wrong, but would particularly recommend the Labneh and chicken.

This place has really upped its game—worthy of a Michelin star.
