"Walk into Ayat and you’ll immediately be tempted by the spits of shawarma and deli case full of hummus and tabbouleh. All of these things are worth your time, but this Palestinian restaurant’s signature platters are the main event. The portions are huge, so you’ll need a group to help get through the six layers of meat, rice, chickpeas, tahini, almonds, and mint in the platter of fattat lahma. Decked out in faux flowers, Ayat's breezy dining room is perfect for a group dinner or casual summer celebration. They now have multiple locations all over the city, but this is the original. " - neha talreja
