Taïm (taïm Mediterranean kitchen), is an American fast casual restaurant chain that serves bowls, pitas, salads, and mezzes. It was founded in (insert year) by Einat Admoni. In (insert date) taïm opened up their first location, which quickly became an NYC staple. In (insert year) taïm Mediterranean kitchen was acquired by (insert description of untamed) Untamed Brands. Since then, taïm has grown to over 13 locations in New York, New Jersey, Washington D.C. and Maryland.

Zagat's reported that Taïm had 'sublime' falafel (deep-fried chickpea balls), rated "'best in NYC' – and maybe 'the USA'".[2][3] The falafel comes in several flavors, such as green (parsley and cilantro), red (roasted red peppers), and spicy. Home-made harissa spices it up, and the falafel is kosher and gluten-free.[1][2][4][5]

The menu also includes tabbouleh, homemade French fries to be dipped in saffron aioli, salad with lemon-mint dressing, smoothies, and hot toasted pita brushed with olive oil and a mixture of sesame, salt, and the herb za'atar (grown on a mountain near Jerusalem).[2][4][6]

The chef is Einat Admony, from Bnei Brak, near Tel Aviv, who co-owns it with her husband Stefan Nafziger.[2][4][7][8]

Decor

The restaurant is small. Its decor was described by Zagats as "almost 'literally a hole-in-the-wall'".[3]

Reviews

In 2012, Time Out described Taïm's falafel as "wildly popular."[1]

In 2013, Zagat's gave Taïm a food rating of 26, and a decor rating of 10, and ranked it the # 1 Israeli restaurant in New York City and the # 2 restaurant in NoLita.[3] The same year, Fodor's described its food as "delicious."[2]

Other establishments

The owners opened trendy offshoot restaurant Balaboosta (the name balaboosta means "the ideal or perfect housewife" in Yiddish) on Mulberry Street, immediately north of Spring Street, in March 2009, which they also operate together.[9][10][11][12] They also have a food truck called Taïm Mobile, which opened for business in 2011.[13][14]
