"Rooted in Middle Eastern flavors and cooked over an open flame, this eatery hums with spice and smoke; large archways frame a clear view into the open kitchen where chefs methodically prepare fire‑roasted carrots, turmeric‑marinated snapper, lamb kofta, and ember‑cooked eggplant, while warm, freshly baked pita arrives to tear and serve alongside hummus and baba ganoush; housed in a historic Pearl district building, the open kitchen and wood‑fired grill create a lively, kinetic atmosphere." - Lee Escobedo
