About Grill Point: Upper East Side
Tucked into Lexington Avenue, Grill Point brings authentic Israeli-style grilling to the Upper East Side. This location stands out with a well-curated menu that reflects the flavors of a traditional Middle Eastern grill.
Inside, the space balances casual ambiance with a warm neighborhood feel. It’s ideal for both quick takeout and low-key sit-down meals. At the heart of the menu are the signature grilled meats—chicken shawarma carved fresh to order, baby chicken skewers grilled over an open flame, and crisp, golden schnitzel served in pillowy laffa or soft pita. Portions are generous, and diners consistently note that the meats are well-seasoned and tender without being greasy.
Sides are far from filler. The Israeli salad is crisp and vibrant, matbucha has a slow-roasted depth, and the homemade hummus delivers creamy texture with just the right touch of garlic and lemon. Popular plates include the build-your-own bowls, where shawarma or schnitzel are layered over rice or couscous and topped with an array of fresh salads and sauces.
The falafel, which is freshly fried to order, gets frequent praise for its balance of crunch and soft interior. The grilled vegetable mix adds a welcome, smoky contrast. Many customers highlight the variety and value of the Friday Shabbat specials, which include dishes like mini steaks, lemon schnitzel, and couscous-based entrees ready to bring home.
Grill Point on the Upper East Side has quickly earned a loyal following among locals looking for something fast and flavorful. With its independent approach and emphasis on freshness, it’s more than just another outpost—it’s a neighborhood staple in the making.
