Kavitha Sagi: Chicken soup is awesome, I'm gonna try to make this part of my regular repertoire at home! Service is great. Get the dark chocolate baklava that is not on the menu
Allegra Starobin: The grilled octopus appetizer and moussaka are both wonderful!
Village Voice: The restaurantâs signature dish is its rich moussaka, but the baked lamb shank in a clay pot, Melitzanosalata (eggplant dip), spanakopita, and tzatziki are all recommended. Read more.

john laskow: This is not Carnegie deli. No pastrami here. This is an awesome food cart with great souvlaki in a pita
Luis Avila: The combo patters are great, the shish kabobs remind me of the spot over on steinway and 31 in Astoria which makes sense since John is an Astoria native. Personal favorite : Chicken sandwich, drool
The Corcoran Group: If you're looking for a nearby alternative to Le Parker Meridien's Burger Joint, look no further than Carnegie John's incredible $4 cheese burger.

Zoheb Khan: Had the hottest gyro sandwhiches ever. Yumm
Midtown Lunch LA: Our favorite is the Chennai roll. (Sweet + Sour + Spicy) And just as a warning, the lamb is just generic gyro meat. Read more.
AJ Singha: Chicken n lamb Kati rolls are the bomb; biryani is pretty solid. Try the sampler combo of Kati roll, samosa n chicken biryani

Theodore Kim: Head straight to the grill in the back to find some of the only Korean food served in the Theater District. Bibimbap, udon, bulgogi. What a Midtown surprise.
Grace S.: Favorite deli-style spicy veggie udon! Get extra zucchini, scallions, mushrooms, dried tofu, and seaweed.
Christa Hoegler: They make your food quickly. Then they take your money quickly. I've never waited more than 30 seconds to pay for food even with 10 people in front of me in line.

Anastasia Bezverkha: Very good Russian home food, & live Music! I feel at home. Pickled platter==== must order two plates next time!
Zina Яkovleva: Best place for a get together or after work party. Live music sets the right mood, staff is amazing especially the bartender Pavel who is the core of a guaranteed fun night!
Cat Cat: If you like tea- you must order the tea and stir in the cherry preserves it's AMAZING- especially paired with some of the cranberry infused vodka (my fav).
