Master Critic Review

Village Cafe 8.4
Gravesend (East)-Homecrest
Azerbaijani restaurant tucked off Coney Island Avenue where hearty platters, noodles, and kebabs can be ordered à la carte or as part of per-person banquet spreads. The multi-course format feels like an Azerbaijani tasting menu, moving from qutab and soups into grilled meats and rich noodle dishes.
Must-Try Dishes: Qutab flatbreads, Lulya kebabs, Guru hingal noodles
