The man working there is incredible! I had a problem with my order and he went above and beyond. The customer service was very personal. I am coming back just because of that. I wish I asked for his name! The food was 10/10! I got the signature chicken shawarma plate. The meat was juicy and flavourful! The toppings were delicious and they weee generous with the sauce! Thank you!! Read less

Tasty food, place is slightly crammed though. Falafels are delicious

Sadly, Taïm has noticeably gone downhill in the last year or so. I previously wrote a 5 star review, but after a recent visit, I was quite disappointed. When the menu first got revamped, allowing for more customization, I was incredibly impressed. The falafel bowls were really delicious, and I felt like you got a lot for your money. I’d been away for most of the last year, and was excited to have Taïm soon after arriving back in New York. The bowl has been reduced to a rather small plate, and the price has increased quite a bit as well. I understand that price increases are happening everywhere, but the serving size being significant reduced as well is an issue. THE BIGGEST ISSUE is how small the falafels have gotten. The ones I got seemed to be 80% crust and 20% filling. I’m really disappointed because Taïm used to have the best falafel in the village. Another thing that really bothered me was how poorly cooked the couscous was. A lot of the pearls were so hard to the point that I could’ve chipped a tooth if I bit down hard enough. I personally think this is a product of their fairly rapid expansion, which has clearly made quality control difficult to manage. With some new competition in the neighborhood, I really have no reason to come here anymore. Read less

I have worked in the West Village for years and have consistently seen the quality of this location’s food decline while the prices rise. The latest order I placed today will be my last! Ordered a falafel bowl with half rice and half hummus. There is barely any hummus and the rice is dry and stale, not how they used to make it. I dunno why their quality just gets worse since they are a popular lunch spot. Oh and now they charge for a pita on the side of a bowl. Fortunately the falafels are still good, but this isn’t worth the $17 bowl for me any more. Read less
