    Finally

    I love the simplicity of this place, just twelve tables and good food. No blaring music, no lighting, or mirrors, just good food at a fair price. What a concept!

    Not a Russian place, although the name resembles Russian comic tale of XXth century

    They have few Russian authentic dishes of medium quality. Very odinary place for NYC

    Can't accommodate ANY substitutions!

    The food at 12 chairs is great, and it's a cute little spot, but they are 100% unaccommodating about substitutions! I'm not talking about the "I'm going to rework your whole menu" type either, I'm talking about the Food Allergy type where you're willing to be charged extra rather than be nervous about what you're getting - they absolutely won't allow it! Geeze, learn to bend a little!

    I wanted to love this place...

    So cute from the outside, a good menu, reasonably priced, and the food is actually pretty good -- sabich sandwich in particular is great, as well as the spreads served w/the complimentary bread, but the service was poor! This was the kind of service that ruins your night. The kitchen wasn't slow, just took forever for the waitress to acknowledge us, then forever to bring menus, same w/break etc, all the while you can see the waitress chit chat-ing or doing other tasks in a super inefficient way. Was incredibly frustrating. So perhaps do take-out?

    Great Hummus & pitas

    Perfect pita! Israeli, middle eastern and some eastern European comfort food. Easy no rush atmosphere.

    YUMMY Israeli

    Walked by many times, but first stopped to eat there this evening. Wonderful find! The restaurant itself small, intimate and casual. Very friendly and knowledgable waitstaff. Hummus appetizer is a must. Israeli salad has great flavor and very generous portions. My husband had the Lamb meatballs small plate, and was very happy with his choice. Easy going, mellow, perfect night at 12 Chairs for us. We look forward to returning soon.

    Great Find!

    It was nearing 3:00 when my mom and I stopped at 12 Chairs for a late lunch. So, naturally, we were famished. The atmosphere is really simple and comfortable, nothing over the top. Because of the off-hour, the place was pretty much empty, and all of the service was immediate. Free rustic bread basket was great. We ordered the brie sandwich and the goat cheese salad to split between the two of us. Both huge portions, salad had a generous amount of goat cheese. Overall, a winning experience.
