Ayat BUSHWICK

The best service I’ve had in a long time. The food was fresh and so good! The atmosphere was beautiful and love the attention to detail including the menu which gave us some historical facts. The prices were amazing! I left with extra food. Def coming back.

Ayat had amazing service and food. Rahim was our server for the night and was very accommodating. The place itself is beautiful and plenty of seating is available. The food was amazing- we ordered the pizzawarma, chicken kebab and beef kebab. The artwork and presentation is very thoughtful. I would recommend this to everyone who visits New York.

I came here alone on Saturday night to try the restaurant out. Luckily I was alone so there was no wait and was immediately taken to my seat right along the open kitchen. The service was amazing as was the food. The chef was so kind and although he was busy he took the time to engage with everyone seated around him. He came over to my side and I asked what fish he recommended and he recommended the branzino, and let me tell you it did not disappoint! He even gave me a dessert and hummus on the house. My first experience dining at this restaurant and it will not be my last. The food was so fresh and tasted so great and the portions were very generous. There was beautiful live music playing throughout the evening. 10/10 recommend! Thank you 🇵🇸 for such delicious food!!

Went for lunch with a coworker and had a wonderful experience from start to finish. The restaurant is spacious and bright, the decor is beautiful, and the roaring wood fire oven is enticing on a cold winter day. I had the spicy chicken kebab plate which had great heat to it and had a delicious creamy & fluffy garlic yogurt sauce. We also had the fried cauliflower appetizer and the spinach and cheese cigars, and received two baskets of piping hot, fluffy pitas at the table. Our server Ronan took excellent care of us throughout our stay and brought us baklava on the house at the end, which had a beautiful hint of rose water and tasted divine. Highly recommend for a warm and filling meal with amazing textures and flavours .

Absolute 10/10 experience. The food was INCREDIBLE and the service and atmosphere was very welcoming. Such an amazing meal we will definitely be back.

Small venue nestled in Bushwick that seems to always be busy. Prepare to have a reservation on hand or fight to sit at the bar. All good signs. We got two Limonanas and the Cold Appetizer platter. Bill came out to be around $79 after tip. Not bad for NYC. A lot of the dishes are heavy comfort foods so one entree can feed two people quite easily. The drinks are also very delicious and refreshing. Highly recommend this place.

I love everything about Ayat and am so glad I stopped in! The atmosphere is great, Rahim is wonderful, and the food is so good! I ordered Beitenjan as an appetizer, and it actually melted in my mouth. I could eat that forever. Especially with the piping hot, soft pitas they served us! I ordered the Araby Chicken Shwarma, my friend ordered Lamb Kebab, and both were fantastic. I'm already planning my next meal there!

There was no seating available when we went and they found space at the bar for us. The staff is incredible, hospitable and extremely friendly. I already can’t wait to go back and the food was delicious, good portion sizes for everything. Also, if you’re looking to get dessert hands down the tres leches is the way to go. I’ve had many tres leches and this one goes in the top 3 category. In addition, I got the spicy chicken kebab platter and it was perfect. Thank you for everything!
