Openings: Rakka on 1st Avenue

Rakka debuted last week before the holiday at 156 First Ave. between Ninth Street and 10th Street. 

As we mentioned earlier in the month, this is a return for the quick-serve Middle-Eastern restaurant that had outposts on St. Mark's Place and Avenue B

Rakka continues to serve some staples, including falafel ($6.50) and chicken shawarma ($8.75) sandwiches. 

There are two tables here... otherwise, it's a primarily to-go operation. 

Daily hours: 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
