Lev Kitchen

My husband and I shared:
- Za'atar Chicken Malawach
- Haloumi Malawach
- Mushroom Schnitzel

The Haloumi Malawach was definitely my favorite. The cheese was delicious and paired perfectly with the sweet spread. I wouldn't get the mushrooms again. I love mushrooms but they didn't really have any flavor.

There were several other menu items I wanted to try so I'd gladly come back.

Some of the most awesome food and drink! Amazing wines and ciders and the team at Lev was amazing. We had such a great time and they’re honestly a gem - with an amazing focus on sustainability. Thank you so much!!!

Lev Kitchen is a new gem on the Ithaca Commons! Owners are very friendly and their recommendations are worth listening to! My chicken malawach for lunch was so good that I even brought friends before dinner for a little appetizers (fries) and some happy hour - btw, their drink selection is huge (both alcoholic, featuring local ciders and interesting international wines, and non-alcoholic). Next time I will definitely want to try more of their vegetarian options. Lev should definitely be added to your list for quick to-go eats or a nice sit-down Commons meal.

Stopped in for a quick snack! Loaded fries were really good, and I appreciate being able to pair it with a local brew! This brings a lot of great personality to the Ithaca Commons.

This place needs to be on every list of must-visit Ithaca eateries. The malawach sandwiches are SO good - crispy and bursting with flavor. And save room for the dessert of fried caramel malawach (or don’t save room and eat it anyway).
