Unique take on Middle Eastern breakfast food. Good food but small portions for the price.

Came for brunch. Food & service were good, presentation was great. I'd recommend the shakshouka & pancakes but not the omelette.

The pancakes are beautiful, & the garnishing is a lovely touch. Unfortunately, their taste does not match their appearance - they were too dry & had a distinctly floury taste/texture, which was disappointing. If you're on the hunt for the best pancakes, I'd recommend trying Arthur's instead. Shay does redeem itself in its ambience & excellent service. Their lamb reuben is both a unique brunch offering & well-made; perhaps a savoury dish is safer to order at Shay? Still, given its inconvenient location & price point, I wouldn't consider Shay worth returning to. But I don't regret our decision to try it: it's worth checking off the list if you got it there!
