Ilili - Broad Channel

As good as a restaurant gets. Food was insane, and the service and ambience are perfect. Loved the duck shawarma so much

Fantastic Mediterranean food. Recommend the Duck Shawarma!

The strong baba ghanoush is only bested by the even stronger cocktails.

Traditional Middle Eastern restaurant in NYC. Great service with delicious food. Must try the lamb shawarma

I always ask NYC cab drivers from around the world to recommend me authentic restaurants from their countries. This may be the best recommendation I have gotten so far. Needless to mention that the food is fantastic, but the interior decor is also a work of art. Wait staff are all so friendly and nice. I go there for good food, but also to impress friends and clients. And I work in the design field.
