Seven Hills Mediterranean Grill

I went here yesterday around lunch time and it was rather empty. As you walk in, there is a staircase to a theatre, and then the bar. Past that is an abundance of seating. The interior is pretty nice- and would be a decent date/dinner spot. I got a sangria which was rather large and lemon-y. I was very happy with it. Bread came for the table. For an app, I got the lebneh. The person I was with enjoyed both more than me, but it was good. I then got the shrimp which was very flavorful. I was thoroughly happy with my choice. The person I was with got the lamb and it was piled on the plate. They couldn't eat it all. They said it was very good too.

I have started a quest to find the best shwarma but also willing to try gyro. Oddly enough, loved several great dishes at Seven Hills, but not the gyro. The quality and quantity of the meat was there it wasn't gristly, or overcooked or too fatty like other places. But the meat also had very little flavor. Ask for extra sauce with it, it helps. The rice and salad that came with it were quite good. The pide bread was great with sesame seeds. A step above regular pita or other Turkish pides in the nabe. The lentil soup, lebni and imam biyaldi were on point fresh, flavorful, and greaseless (which is an accomplishment with turkish eggplant). The falafel and tahina were meh, no real flavor. Of course, why would I order falafel from a Turkish resto? Serves me right. So, I will def order from here again....but NOT the gyro or falafel.

Delicious and laid back family run restaurant. We went before the opera at Lincoln Center. We had small Mezze plate- delicious and crispy okra and zucchini pancakes. The crispy okra was amazing. They suggested two wines and we tried both my sister liked and I liked the other! Perfect! We liked the opera but we were still talking about the crispy okra when we got home! A wonderful neighborhood restaurant!

Best lamb chops and best service in town. You gotta try their coffee and kebabs!!! The owner Eda Is so sweet and the ambiance is the best.

Ordered delivery yesterday. Mixed experience. Octopus and grape leaves were very good. Rice and salad were very not. Shrimp were not jumbo as advertised. Humus and baba were acceptable. Pida pizza was light on toppings/fillings.
