Order: - Falafel & Tahini (4/5) - Pancakes w/Fresh Fruits (4/5) - Arayes (5/5) - Sweet Potato Fries (5/5) - Freshly Squeezed Orange Juice (3/5) Pros: - Great tasting food with Middle Eastern options and classic brunch options - Large menu - Able to get a seat without reservation Cons: - Very busy with tight seating both inside and outside - Food can take a while to come out - My "freshly squeezed orange juice" tasted very much from a carton and was very warm - Hard to get servers attention - Pricey Overall: Great tasting food but overpriced and service wasn't the best
Let me preface this by saying that I truly do love this
Let me preface this by saying that I truly do love this restaurant. I've been here many times and also the Soho location as well. I went last night for my husbands birthday and to say that I was thoroughly disappointed in the service was an understatement. I ordered the Arayes, which are my favorite, and he ordered the lamb burger medium rare. We get our food - his burger is cooked probably more medium to medium well (not complaining on the temperature on his, it tasted perfect tbh) and mine was severely undercooked. I took a bite and something felt off, and I compared the meats between mine and his as mine was incredibly bright pink and my husbands was totally opposite of mine. Anyway, the waiter came over and I told him that I think my dish was undercooked and he takes it back to the kitchen. He comes out a few minutes later and tells me "that's how it's supposed to be and the reason why the color of the meats is different is because of the spices they put in the burger." So.. I'm like okay fine I guess I'll buy it even the texture of the meats are different... Then I cut open another one and the dough is still pulling from the meat as in the dough of the pita for the Arayes was not cooked through and it was raw dough. So I call him over again and I said "I know I'm not going crazy here, I've ordered this a million times - this dish is undercooked" and his response "Well, we can overcook it for you" .. it was such a rude obnoxious response that it left such a nasty taste in my mouth. How hard is it to say "let me get you a new one or we can fix this" and just do it without making your customer feel like an idiot?? I sent it back, ordered something that I knew I wouldn't have an issue with. Finish the dinner, I asked for a box to go. We were going to order dessert but couldn't because the waiter didn't even ask if we wanted anything else, he just put the check on the table. WTF with this rudeness?? Word to management/owner: perhaps you should have a customer service training session with your waitstaff.
I used to work right by the SoHo location and previously I
I used to work right by the SoHo location and previously I didn't care for this place much and hardly ever went. But now I frequent their Brooklyn location quite a bit, because I love their labneh here. It's so good and paired with that warm pita is heaven. I could eat entire tub of the labneh. The place is a bit crammed and can get a bit crazy, so that's something to consider, but I still come to get my fix. I get the following: Freshly squeezed oj - can't go wrong with this. ARAYES Grilled pita filled with minced lamb, served with a spicy cherry tomato salad and tahini - I get this, but I only eat the filling, because I don't care for the pita, since it is hard as hell. I don't get why they can't have it be softer. If they changed that aspect, I would be able to eat the entire thing. SMOKED SALMON SCRAMBLED Soft-scrambled eggs over toasted challah bread, served with smoked salmon and capers - I recently ordered this and I was specific about the salmon not arriving on the same plate because it reminds me a really bad brunch I had in UES, where the hot food "cooked" the smoke salmon and changed the taste and texture. This is why I never ordered the dish here, but it was good.
WOW! Authentic, delicious, friendly, good service, and
WOW! Authentic, delicious, friendly, good service, and amazing flavors! In town visiting family, first time at this place and had to recommend. Flavor Bomb!!!
Lots of hype for bad service and meh food.
The schnitzel was dry and that was the best thing we ordered.
delicious food, great service, cute atmosphere.
12 chairs has it all. i tried the pita sabich and it was an incredible blend of flavors. ive never had anything like it before. so delicious!! and everything is reasonably priced for the amount you get.
To start: the food is absolutely delicious.
The chicken is juicy and cooked perfectly in the grilled chicken sandwich and pita schnitzel. The Israeli salad compliments the dishes very well and is light and refreshing. I highly recommend the meat hummus in comparison to regular plain hummus because the flavors of the meat and mushrooms are to die for. The downside of this place is it seems to be very disorganized and slow with seating/taking orders/getting the check and overall service. Waitress wasn't very attentive and had conversations with friends for a while before taking orders or providing water but I guess that's just the relaxed vibe of this place. I'd for sure come back for the food though (just probably at a random non-busy hour).
If you love sabich, you know how impossible it is to find.
12 Chairs sabich sandwich just elevates it to a whole other level--the perfect combination of flavors and textures: light, crispy eggplant; crunchy vegetables; creamy, tangy dressing; soft but not too doughy pita. Just savor it.
Did not love this place.
Probably would not return. We were sat down 15 mins after saying our table is almost ready. Not a big deal, but it looked like they gave our table to a different party. They charged us twice for a side of egg, and we only found out because we asked for a receipt. Still very kind, i'm sure they would have removed the charge had we asked. The atmosphere was very hot outside & a little unkempt. There were flies everywhere, and we had to ask them to turn the fan on. The food was mediocre. It was just standard middle eastern food. My favorite was the labaneh, but i've had a lot better before. The malabi isn't bad, but I don't recommend if you're not into jelly like textures.
Best middle eastern restaurant in the city !! Especially
Best middle eastern restaurant in the city !! Especially the falafel & sabich!! Highly recommend and I'll be back!!
If you want a classic new york city bustling (but cramped)
If you want a classic new york city bustling (but cramped) exciting dinner, this is place. It's such a vibe to grab and share plates with friends, have a few drinks, and hang out before going out. I went with one of my friends and we ordered a few things to share. We got the hummus plates, a couscous dish, and the schnitzel. It was all pretty good. The service was relatively good. Given the space is cramped, it's hard for people to go back and forth but besides that it was lovey and the staff was nice.
If u can't make it to Tel Aviv this is the closest you'll
If u can't make it to Tel Aviv this is the closest you'll get! Lots of Israeli love by diners. It's packed. Dance on tables with tambourines! Eat the best eggplant, Lamb and Israeli Hummus. No haters here! Enjoy
the food tasted great!! my favorite part of the meal was
the food tasted great!! my favorite part of the meal was definitely the hummus and the pita bread! the pita bread is so delicious. they gave us refills of the pita bread too!! the service was good! we sat outside and we were not forgotten about. the servers were fun and energetic. the vibe was nice too! i would definitely recommend this place
Everything was delicious.
Aside from what's pictured (hummus, falafel, tabouli, beets, labne) we got the schnitzel salad and Malabi. Jachnun was already sold out. Service seemed but short handed but staff was really nice all around. Labne was absolutely perfect if I could have it every day I would. 10/10
12 Chairs is the perfect weekend brunch spot! I love
12 Chairs is the perfect weekend brunch spot! I love posting up in the outdoor seating section.
Great Israeli brunch spot.
Food was yummy and the wait staff was friendly. Would come again.

Tons of hype around 12 chairs and was excited to go on a saturday night to catch up with friends but honestly one of the worse experiences I've had recently. Food: Food was nothing to write home about. A bit overpriced, even for NY, and not nearly at the level i was expecting after hearing every person recommend this restaurant. We ordered both babaganoush (comes w pita) and hummus (comes with pita) and were given 3 pitas total??? For four people? A) not nearly enough pita for the amount of dip and B) i feel like since both items came with pita it should have been more than 3 pieces total? My friends were obsessed with the hummus, the falafel could have been better and cocktails were fantastic, probably the best part of the whole meal. Service: Service was overly attentive and we felt rushed and unwanted. There is no entryway so we squeezed in while we waited to talk to the host. This resulted in standing behind a door and having a server literally shove the door open onto us. Was then asked in a condescending tone if we had a reservation. We did (7:30) and were 10 mins early. They weren't ready for our res and had to combine two tables to make a four-top for us. They also told us in the most pretentious way that our res was ONLY 90 minutes and we had to clear by 9pm (btw, at 9pm there were three other large tables open so were rushed out for nothing). They asked our drink orders within 35 seconds of sitting down, said we needed a minute and then were given about 35 more seconds before being asked again. When the remainder of our group arrived we were again asked every minute if we were ready to order. Every time we said we weren't ready they gave us such an annoyed look (btw we put our full order in within 15 minutes of sitting). When clearing our food (which they also asked several times if they could do), they accidentally hit me in the face (and my glasses) with silverware! Ambiance: Good music (Israeli music) but far too loud to hold a conversation. I lost my voice trying to talk to my friends. Small restaurant but tables are much too crowded (even for NY, especially for Williamsburg). Chairs have rounded backs so nowhere to hang your bag/scarf/earmuffs and tables are too tiny to set anything on the table.
The food is good but I ordered a side of tuna to go and
The food is good but I ordered a side of tuna to go and this is what I got. Like.. wtf. It's literally straight out of a can and they charged me for it. (They make a tuna salad, which is what I ordered.)
Food is good but the music is SO loud.
The bass makes your table rattle. Wont be coming back
If you haven't tried mediterranean food before i would
If you haven't tried mediterranean food before i would totally recommend you to come and try it for the first time at this place, it's a joy in williamsburg i been there like 4 times before, try the hummus with the pita and the olives! Also our server was super nice to us and they make the best hugo spritz i had ever try in brooklyn. Thank you so much!

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
