If you're craving a unique brunch experience, Radio Star offers an array of Mediterranean-inspired dishes that truly impress. One highlight is the SMOKY PORK GRIDDLE SANDWICH, which features flaky Yemeni flatbread that resembles a Taiwanese scallion pancake, filled with savory pork belly, a mayo-based sauce, and vibrant purple onions. Another delicious option is the DOUBLE STRAINED YOGURT (labneh), served with a generous portion of strawberries and blueberries, along with crunchy sesame seed granola that provides a delightful texture contrast. While the menu might not seem filled with sweet options, the yogurt can be a refreshing start to your meal. The ambiance is equally delightful with a charming outdoor seating area that enhances your dining experience. Although the service received a mixed review, it's worth noting that some recommendations, particularly the sandwiches, truly shine. For those seeking a fulfilling brunch in NYC, Radio Star promises a memorable experience with both tasty dishes and an inviting atmosphere.
