Saba

Didn’t think I was a fan of Israeli food until eating here. The pita is next level!! We came with a group of 8 so had to do the feed me menu. We were definitely fed… sooo much food. We were seated by a somewhat private table but the restaurant was not thrilled when we were standing up and chatting at the beginning and end so maybe not a great spot for a large gathering.

This may be the best meal I've ever had. Words cannot express how amazing every single item was. The tastes, textures and freshness were perfection. Mane........ Salatims: -Ikra: Smoked trout roe and baby herbs. -Lutenitsa: Bulgarian spread of roasted peppers, eggplant and tomatoes. -Pickles: Cabbage, turmeric cauliflower, citrus fennel, Israeli cucumbers and watermelon rinds. -Roasted beets: sumac pickled onions and dill. -Moroccan carrots: Chermoula, lentils and coriander. Brussel sprouts Hummus: shabazi onions, black garlic and pickled jalepenos. Salmon Malawach: labneh, cucumber, chermoula, and smoked trout roe. Shakshuka: local summer vegetables, chilli and soft cooked eggs. Fresh baked pita bread.

This is such an amazing restaurant! As an Israeli I wasn’t expected to be amazed by the food in an Israeli restaurant in the US, but this place definitely wowed me! Everything was extraordinary but the thing that surprised me the most was the pita - most places in the states does not have a decent pita bread (at least from an Israeli perspective), but this place had the best pita I had in my life! Despite being a but pricy, this place is highly recommended 👌🏽

A few months ago I visited Shaya and was told I should definitely try Saba, so I did. Walked in and was greeted and sat immediately, sometimes reservations are best. Took a booth seat and was greeted by my waiter Andrew, who was amazing by the way. Ordered a sweet tea (got unsweetened but it was still good), mushroom hummus, falafel plate, grilled cabbage and lamb plate. The mushrooms humus had types of mushrooms, one oyster and the other I forgot. The bread was simply, OMG! The green falafels came in a 5 count with Tahini sauce on the side. Though they were a little more crispy than I like, they had a great flavor. I highly suggest baking or frying not so hard. The lamb was very tender and flavorsome, served over humus and red, sweet onion sauce. The grilled cabbage had just the right amount of char, topped with sprouts and roasted hazelnuts, onions and tomato paste that seems to have some type of refreshing fruit flavor in it. Over all, the experience was awesome and the food was great. Enjoy dinner inside or outside under a covered patio. Definitely won't be disappointed!
