Taboonette is one of the most beloved quick-service restaurants near Union Square in New York City.

About Taboonette NYC
Taboonette was born out of Taboon Restaurant, a wood-fired Mediterranean kitchen that opened in 2004 in Hell’s Kitchen, Manhattan. Chef Efrain Naon built Taboon around a signature cuisine he called “Middleterranean” — a blend of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean flavors cooked over a real wood-burning oven. That same philosophy of bold, clean, fire-kissed cooking carried over when Taboonette opened as a fast-casual spinoff in 2012.
The name “Taboonette” is a nod to the taboon — the traditional clay oven used across the Middle East for centuries to bake flatbread. At Taboonette, that same spirit shows up in every pita that comes out warm and pillowy, every slow-roasted protein, and every sauce made in-house. In 2016, Moshe Yom Tov joined the team to lead operations, and the restaurant has grown its reputation steadily ever since.
The setup is counter-service. You order at the back, grab a seat at one of the communal tables or window stools, and pick up your food when your number is called. Students get 10% off with a valid student ID. Expect to spend around $15–$22 per person for a full meal.

What’s the Best Thing to Order at Taboonette?
Based on hundreds of Yelp and TripAdvisor reviews from regulars and first-time visitors, here’s what to order from the Taboonette menu:
If it’s your first visit: Order the Chicken Shawarma Pan ($18.50). It’s the most ordered item at Taboonette for a reason — free-range chicken thighs, hummus, tahini, Israeli salad, tomato coulis, and pickles all on yellow vermicelli rice.
If you want the most unique item: The Sweet Potato Falafel ($15.00/$17.50) gets mentioned in more reviews than almost anything else on the menu. Chef Efrain’s signature chickpea and sweet potato fritter with arugula-herb salad and tzatziki is unlike any falafel you’ve had before.
If you want the best vegetarian meal: Get the KRUVEET Cauliflower Pan ($18.50). Taboon roasted cauliflower, fried eggplant, spaghetti squash, hummus, and tahini. Fully vegan and completely satisfying.
If you’re on a budget: The Sabich at $8.00 is one of the best-value bites in all of NYC. Fried eggplant, hardboiled egg, chopped salad, tahini, tomato coulis, and amba — all for $8. Order it as a snack or pair it with a side salad for a full meal under $16.
If you want the best hummus experience: Order the plain Hummus Bowl ($12.00) with a side of fried eggplant ($5.00) and a side of warm pita ($2.50). Total cost: under $20 for one of the best hummus experiences in New York City.
Best drink pairing: Order the Lemonana ($5.50) with anything spiced — the fresh mint lemonade cuts right through the richness of shawarma or lamb.
