Ambiance (4/5): The restaurant is located a little farther from the street, almost inside a parking lot, within a small homey dining lodge. I felt like I was inside someone’s home and felt welcomed and comfortable. Not loud and well lit.
Service (5/5): We came at an off hour during the weekend around 1:30pm there was still around 6 parties dining in. The staff provided good recommendations and good service. When asked for water without any lemon slices, they provided bottled water at no extra cost!
Food: (4/5) – rated New York Times top 100 Best Restaurants in New York City in 2025
Every dish came with a small cup of sour cream / Tzatziki based sauce that went with every dish. This was a must and this was mastered very well.
Kutaby with chicken and lamb (4/5) – we ordered one each but the lamb was far superior than the chicken.
Guru Hingal (4/5) – served in a warmed bowl with a lid in a bed of soft pasta and minced lamb. The pasta reminded me of chow fun (Chinese rice flat noodles) and then some seasoned minced lamb. While overall there were flavors in there, it was still lacked flavors and required to be drowned in the Tzatziki sauces or perhaps a order of table hot sauce.
Finally we got the Lamb Lulya Kebab (5/5): this was by far the best dish of the meal! The meat was so wonderfully seasoned throughout, juicy, and complemented well with the rice, onions, and tomato based dip. The wraps themselves were way too small to enjoy using hands so we definitely reconstructed on our plates and attempts with our hands.

First time to try this place, beautiful setting, great atmosphere, and delicious food. They offer everything from Shish-Kebab to soup and dessert! The Azerbaijani cuisine there is unique and tasteful. The lamb dishes especially the fried lamb liver are flavorful, I tried it, but it wasn’t as advertised in their photos in terms of portions and looks, That’s why I dropped the rating one star. But the Turkish bread is a must-try. The staff is friendly, and the service is prompt. Also, Get the black tea pot, it’s worth every drop of it.. Definitely, this place in general worth a visit!

We had an amazing experience at Village Cafe, enjoying authentic Azerbaijani cuisine that truly took us back home. The service was fantastic – friendly, attentive, and welcoming.
We tried dushbara, kutab, chicken shish kebab, and eggplant salad, and everything was incredibly delicious! The flavors were rich and authentic, just like homemade Azerbaijani food. The only downside was the rice that came with the kebab—it was a bit dry and could have been better with saffron and maybe different type of rice.
Other than that, everything was fantastic, and we’ll definitely be coming back for more! Highly recommend this spot for anyone craving traditional Azerbaijani flavors 🙂

The food at Village Café was very good, and the service was excellent. However, the portion sizes don’t justify the prices. You leave feeling like you paid too much for too little. Worth visiting for quality, but the value needs improvement. We won’t be back!

I try to be objective in my reviews. So now I’ll write everything as it is. A cafe with a hint of rustic style could still look a little more “interesting” in terms of design. Just nails driven into the wall are definitely not the only thing that should remind me of my native village… The food and table setting seemed quite contrasting to me. There are dishes that were prepared perfectly – beef shish kebab, fried liver, very tasty bread, decent vegetable salads… Grilled shrimp – the cook burned it. Fried potatoes with mushrooms are not for everyone… The cutting looked strange – for a table of more than 10 people there were 4 pieces of each type of meat on the plate… However, all the nuances of the interior and cuisine are smoothed out by the friendly and positive cafe workers. Big respect to the staff in the hall. To summarize, I want to say that the impressions of the evening were definitely not spoiled, everything was good, but this cafe definitely has something to work on to improve the situation as a whole.

First time trying Azerbaijan restaurant. The place is super cute and price point is great.
I really like kutaby. It is. Like a soft pancake with filling. Simple but very delicious. I ordered lamb and green filling.
I also ordered piti, which is a lamb soup. Very flavorful. Kompot, a boiled fruit drink, is also great. Last two items I ordered were kebab and pilaf. You can’t go wrong with kebab. Pilaf is a bit sweet for my taste. Overall 10/10 would recommend.

Whenever I visited New York City, this place used to be one of my go-to spots because of the food quality and reasonable pricing. Unfortunately, my most recent visit was a major disappointment.
I went with my family and a friend, and we ordered three Lula Kebabs. Without asking us, all the food was served on a single plate. Because of that, the portion of rice was noticeably smaller than what is normally provided. Paying $17 for a very small Lula Kebab plate with barely any rice, $7 for a single 0.5-liter drink, and $15–$17 for house fries felt extremely overpriced and unjustified.
What made it worse is that we actually left the restaurant still hungry. We then went to Opera Cafe Lounge, where we had an excellent experience—great food, a lively atmosphere, and plenty of guests enjoying themselves. In contrast, there were no other customers dining inside your restaurant when we arrived, which now makes sense.
Unfortunately, due to this experience, you have lost my business.

Village Cafe is a true treasure for Azerbaijani cuisine lovers. From the moment you walk in, the warm decor and rich aromas transport you straight to the Caucasus. The menu is packed with authentic Azerbaijani dishes that are both flavorful and beautifully presented. Dishes like kebabs showcase the region’s bold spices and traditional flavors. The service is friendly and attentive, making it an ideal spot for both casual diners and those wanting a taste of Azerbaijan’s culinary heritage.

Once you walk into this place. You feel like you’re in a village in Middle Eastern Europe. Food was very good. We had the Greek salad, Turkish bread, liver, lamb kebab, Mother in Law Chicken, and the Lamb Kotleti. The liver was cooked perfectly and it went so well with the soft Turkish bread. The lamb kotleti was like a big juicy lamb meatball that melts in your mouth. When you cut into the big lamb meatball the juices gushes out onto the plate. This dish is the bomb!!! Will definitely clone back to try out the other dishes.
