Master Critic Review

Dagon 8.8
Upper West Side (Central)
Modern Israeli restaurant on a prominent Broadway corner serving mezze, breads, and wood-leaning mains with Levantine flavors. Locals use it for date nights, celebrations, and nights when they want serious cooking and a buzzier room than most of the neighborhood.
Must-Try Dishes: Kubaneh, Crispy Roasted Lamb, Shishbarak

What makes it special: Levantine-leaning Israeli cooking with house breads and mezze worth planning around.
Who should go: Date-night diners and groups chasing modern Middle Eastern flavors.
When to visit: Prime dinner hours for full energy; early evenings for calmer.
What to order: Kubaneh with spreads, Shishbarak dumplings, Crispy Roasted Lamb.
Insider tip: Build a table of mezze and breads before committing to heavier mains.
