Sahadi's

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Brooklyn, Sahadi’s is more than just a spot to grab a meal — it’s an immersive experience that beautifully blends a gourmet grocery store, a café, a lively restaurant, and an intimate live music venue all under one roof. Celebrated for its authentic Middle Eastern and Mediterranean flavors, Sahadi’s offers a sensory journey that attracts food enthusiasts, casual diners, and locals alike.

Step inside, and the enticing aroma of freshly grilled meats paired with earthy spices invites you to savor their signature dishes. The Sahadi’s Mixed Grill Platter is an absolute must-try: an artful assortment of succulent grilled steak shawarma, tender chicken shawarma, and flavorful lamb merguez, served with warm, pillowy pita bread, creamy hummus, and refreshing tabbouleh salad. Each bite is a masterclass in seasoning and texture, where smoky char meets vibrant herbs, creating a harmony of flavors that lingers long after the meal.

If you prefer a more focused experience, the Grilled Steak Shawarma and Grilled Chicken Shawarma dishes are equally impressive, boasting marinated, juicy meat cubes that burst with Sahadi’s unique seasoning blend. For those with a sweet tooth, treats like the elusive Pistachio Flan and the exotic Leonessa Dubai Chocolate Bar offer delightful finishes that feel lovingly curated.

Sahadi’s menu also shines with lighter bites like the freshly made Falafel Sandwich and house favorites such as Bacon Wrapped Dates—a perfect marriage of savory and sweet. Even kids are catered for with delicious options like the Hummus Sandwich and Pita Pizza, making it a welcoming spot for the whole family.

But Sahadi’s charm extends beyond the plate. The atmosphere exudes warmth and familiarity—a rare respite from the usual bustle of Brooklyn. As “venturalalala” attests, the service feels like catching up with a caring grandparent, where genuine hospitality is heartfelt and unhurried. Meanwhile, “Julie Thum” highlights the delight of sitting to the rhythm of a live jazz trio, creating a vibrant yet relaxed backdrop that enchants diners during brunch or evening gatherings.

For those who love to explore global flavors at home, Sahadi’s gourmet grocery selection is a treasure trove of culinary gems—from prized Madagascar vanilla beans and exquisite Lebanese olive oil to specialty spices like rose water and za’atar chicken. Food lovers like “Andrew Abi-Mansour” praise the extensive variety of fresh baked goods, dried fruits, and Middle Eastern staples that bring the rich traditions of the region right to Brooklyn’s doorstep.

The beverage program is equally thoughtfully curated. Their cocktail menu showcases classics with a worldly twist—the crisp acidity of a Mango Margarita, the bold warmth of a Manhattan made with Fort Hamilton Double Barrel Bourbon, or a sophisticated Negroni crafted with house-made Forthave Gin and Apertivo. And if you’re stopping by for a lighter moment, the window bar is perfect for grabbing a perfectly poured latte to go, as “Stephanie Cheng” affectionately notes.

With a convivial vibe highlighted by shady outdoor seating beneath Brooklyn’s best breezes, Sahadi’s is a sanctuary of authentic tastes, friendly faces, and memorable moments. Whether you come for a leisurely meal, a quick gourmet grocery run, or a night of live music paired with expertly crafted drinks, Sahadi’s promises a deeply satisfying experience that feels both timeless and refreshingly modern.
