Tucked away upstairs near 5th Ave this was a revelation! I won't bother mangling the names but the eggplant appetizer was amazing & definitely order extra bread. We could have shared 1 entree, with such generous portions. We both had a different chicken dish, one with chicken in the rice with loads of pomegranate seeds & pistachios decorating the plate & the other bone in chicken in a delicious sauce with saffron & basmati rice (I recommend the cucumber, mint yogurt side to accompany the chicken). So delicious! We will return again! Thanks for a wonderful meal.
