About Mombar

Watch Mombar on TikTok

Mombar is an African spot in Astoria, and a decades-long art installation that also happens to serve homemade Egyptian food. Regulars point to the lamb shank and the hummus. Expect a mid-range bill. It was picked from The Infatuation's Why We Love NY guide, so it is open and worth the trip.
