Rustic Table

Incredible place for a breakfast or a brunch in New York! We went there twice during our short stay and both times it was very tasty and good! I tried the Balkan Croissant and I totally recommend, just try it. Actually, everything looks very tasty, but I couldn’t try it all :) Will be glad to be back and in the meantime I recommend, hoping that when i am back there will be available seats 😉

Loved the food and the overall vibe of the restaurant. The waiters and host were very nice and accommodated every need. However, the space itself feels a bit cramped due to the size of the place and the fact that this restaurant is so popular. Also, older people may feel that it is too loud and overbearing (at least, that's what my mom and grandma felt). The bread and drinks are especially tasty. I ordered the banana and date smoothie with soy milk and was not disappointed even though it was about 8 dollars. The tartine and jam/butter was an affordable and delicious side. We also ordered the avocado sandwhich, shakshuka, farmer's breakfast, and a couple croissants which were very delicious.

A little too congested if you get one of the back tables like we did. Like, anyone and everyone walking by or being seated near you will end up being trouble. Also, we were sharing a 6 seater table with a random group of 4. Ughhh. So we got the Turmeric Latte, Cafe Au Lait, Shakshouka, Early Lunch and Zaatar Scone. The coffee or latte weren't as good as we hoped it would be. The Shakshouka and the Early lunch were great. The Zaatar scone was alright. Oh, and the complimentary pita bread was to die for - the softest and tastiest - EVER. Loved the ambiance, service was good. Food was amazing.

The moment you walk in, you feel the positive and calming vibes! I honestly was only looking for a quick bite before I hop on the Big Bus, and the Rustic Table was the closest to me in terms of distance, I had no idea that I am going to a place where I would be having the BEST coffee (Lavender Latte) in my life, ever!!!!!! I have never written a review for a cafe before, but you guys deserve it!!! I enjoyed the Farmers Breakfast Platter too! Thank you, thank you, thank you! And Vita was Awesome.

The waiter asked every single customer that if this is his/her first time here, which made me think there might be lots of tourists coming to the Rustic Table. I tried the house baked Nutella Rugelach. Somehow I always thought it should have the same texture as croissant, but apparently I was wrong. The dough itself might be too hard for me, but I did enjoy the Nutella:)

I was here for brunch and it was awesome. I never had Mediterranean for brunch but I will again! Everything at such good flavor. The Shashuka came highly recommended and rightfully so - the combo of the tomato and the garlic the cheese the eggs-oh my God-it was delicious. Other dishes at the table-the mushroom and cheese omelet and the beef/egg skillet we’re also delicious. The elderflower mimosa was so unique and tasty and although I did not have a pastry, they looked unbelievably scrumptious. Loved the open kitchen plan to see all of the deliciousness at work and the old cans as a vessel for the silverware. I will 100% be coming back here and will make a reservation online (something I did not do resulting in waiting 35 minutes for a table but the wait was well worth it!).

The food there was extremely delicious, going into some territory that I haven't ventured into yet when it comes to Mediterranean food. My friends and I shared a few items on the menu, me having a smoked salmon omelet while another had a roast beef platter topped with an egg and avocado. The waiters were extremely nice and welcoming to us being new there. I would def go again

It’s a small space and the wait is long to get a table as well as the food to come out. We came on a Sunday for brunch. I ordered the omelet dish and the pita bread and the butter went well with the dip. The salad was also really good. However the omelet was lacking flavor and was a bit bland. We also got the banana smoothie and that was really good too. Lastly, great music selection.. mostly oldies rock

We were sat very quickly, even on a Sunday morning, which was a great start. We had a dirty Chai, dirty Turmeric Latte, and dirty Hot Nutella, all of which were tasty. My husband got The Veggie which he enjoyed, and I had the Early Lunch. We also ordered an almond croissant to eat later on the train. Neither of us was blown away by anything, but we enjoyed all of it well enough. Our server was attentive and friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed.
