"Reunion looks like a coffee shop, but it’s actually an Israeli cafe that does breakfast and lunch every day. There’s some nice sidewalk seating when the weather is decent, and if you stop by on a Saturday, most of that seating will probably be occupied. Don't let the brunch crowds that deter you from putting your name in for a table. This is one of the best weekend-afternoon spots in the neighborhood, and the shakshuka is worth a little effort." - bryan kim, carina finn koeppicus, will hartman, sonal shah

"The outdoor tables at this Israeli cafe are open from 9am-9pm every day, which means you can dip challah in shakshuka at breakfast, eat a lamb burger with tzatziki at lunch, or decide how to build your DIY Israeli bento box at dinner." - matt tervooren

"Walk by Reunion Cafe on a weekend morning, and you’ll see a bunch of people loitering around the entrance, waiting to get a table. This Israeli cafe is one of our favorite brunch spots in Williamsburg, but if you can’t make it for brunch, it’s great for lunch and dinner as well. Get a table on the front patio when it’s nice enough to eat outdoors, and be sure to eat some hummus, shawarma, or shakshuka, no matter what time of day it is." - bryan kim

"If you figure out a way to get eggs and pancakes in the park, please teach us. In the meantime, the next-best option is eating brunch at Reunion a couple blocks away. This Israeli cafe serves breakfast options like avocado toast and shakshuka, as well as heavier dishes like chicken shawarma and a schnitzel sandwich. Ask for one of the outdoor tables, and if there’s a wait, grab a coffee and walk around the McCarren Park Greenmarket down the block." - matt tervooren

Can't miss brunch place everything we had a homerun. We started with top shelf drinks Bloody Miriam a little spicy rimmed with Za'tar but delicious and pomegranate mimosas and do not pass on Hummus. Our server insisted we go with traditional and was spot on. I enjoyed the chicken shawrma pro tip order it with a fresh hot pita and ask for spicy. Our group jumped on Shakshuka with the mini challah was money. Small complaint 5$ for feta a little rough but would have balanced and completed the dish we passed. Lahma'ajun tasty as well those who love a little lamb in their breakfast. Will have to return to tackle their dinner next time in area.

SO GOOD. Totally worth the price. Service was exceptional. We had a wonderful time. The food was fantastic. So full of flavor and so unique and thoughtful. We had the pancake, coffees, hot cocoa, and a plate. They have oat milk. I love the outdoor seating. It was made beautiful with vines and lights. Our toddler was having a rough time, but our server was so kind to us and to him. Completely understanding.

We dropped by the restaurant on a sunday afternoon and they still had the brunch menu. We sat outside but they had the cutest indoor decorations. It’s a perfect brunch date spot. It was not busy so we could get seats right away. I thought the food was very good. My personal recommendation is the schnitzel sandwich.

I highly recommend Reunion! Let’s start with the atmosphere. It’s a small restaurant with a cozy upscale vibe and great music playing. The cocktails were super good. We got the espresso martini and the earl grey martini. The food was also delicious!

Everything is perfect, from the ambiance to the food to the service. We ate brunch here and loved it. My bacon egg pita was a thing of beauty and delicious as well. The mochas were perfect. Absolutely recommend!

Lovely Mediterranean restaurant. The dips are on the smaller side. We got the mix dips which went well with the watermelon feta quinoa salad. My favorite was the Yemen pancake but it's slightly sweetened with sugar so not for those who can't have refined sugar. The ravioli was nicely flavored too.

Okay middle eastern food but nothing was a Wow. The shawarma (3.5/5) was nice but lacked strong flavor and the shashuka (3/5) was okay but did not have very much flavor in it. The service was also okay - they seemed super rushed. Prices were okay but I don't think I'd return here.

I went here for a brunch and everything was delicious. Shashuka and watermelon salad were my favorite thing, a must try. Service really good, food came up fast, my iced chai latte were good, then I had a watermelon juice and I love it. This place is perfect for a israeli brunch.
