Salma 7.9
East Village
Vibes: Family Friendly Favorites Comfort Food Classics Group Dining Gatherings Hidden Gems Heaven
A neighborhood Lebanese grill with a straightforward menu of charcoal skewers, house-made dips, and family-style platters. The cooking leans traditional—bright tabbouleh, garlicky toum, and well-seasoned shawarma. A cozy, low-key option that feels local rather than scene-driven.
Must-Try Dishes: Mixed grill platter, Fattoush salad, Stuffed grape leaves
