"Shuka is one of the best spots in the neighborhood for a big group lunch. Everyone can share better-than-average Middle Eastern dishes like bright pink beet hummus, thick labne, and kebabs that come with fluffy pita. Plus there are plenty of vegetarian options, and almost everything costs less than $25. The dining room is surprisingly spacious, despite being located on a charming street where we assume every apartment is 400 square feet. The catch? Tables fill up fast, so make a reservation or show up right when they open at noon." - Kenny Yang, Bryan Kim, Carina Finn Koeppicus, Willa Moore, Sonal Shah
