"This Moroccan-inspired restaurant has been a gem of the foggy Outer Richmond for some years. (It's in good company with other neighborhood fave Fiorella.) A recent refresh has brought new life to it, with vibrant tilework and soft lighting that channels a Marrakech riad at sunset. A one-page wine list offers a curated selection of wines from around southern Europe: carricante from Italy, assyrtico from Santorini, syrah from France. Plus, a few California blends for good measure. Start with the roasted prawns, bathed in spicy harissa and garlic. The basteeya—a traditional savory pastry filled with chicken confit and spiced almonds—is a must. The short ribs with shakshuka and pickled beans are enough to feed two, and well-worth the calories." - Kimberley Lovato, Jenna Scatena
