This place....Too good. Best hummus I've ever had - gotta get the lamb one! Everything else was delicious! Weird cocktails but I enjoyed the experience of trying new things!!

I loved the curried cauliflower hummus so much on my first visit on a Sunday night that I went back Tuesday for lunch just to order that dish again!! The bread is also amazing!

We plan trips to N.O. just to dine here. Everything is so good; you really cannot get an unsatisfying meal here.

I am a former chef and I have lived in Israel and New Orleans. I'm also Jewish....And this is some of the best food I have ever had! The hummus is amazing with the fresh traditionally baked pita, the matzoh ball soup was delicious, light and fluffy, cauliflower to die for, and the lamb was falling off the bone and amazing! We actually had some leftover and made an amazing omelette in the morning. The restaurant itself is fun and intimate at the same time. Mazel tov Chef Shaya, we'll definitely be back!

I took my elderly mother there for lunch. The hubs and I have been twice for dinner. The service, food and experience were amazing. You must get the lamb ragout hummus. We had the mint tea and it was delicious. The lamb kabob was great.
