Modern Israeli cooking arrived in New Orleans with chef Alon Shaya, whose restaurants brought wood-fired pita and Levantine spice to the uptown dining scene. Shaya, uptown, is the flagship of that movement, with Saba, also uptown, carrying the same hummus-and-pita repertoire in a more casual room.
Shaya in New Orleans is the Magazine Street modern Israeli room that won James Beard Best New Restaurant in 2016, now under BRG Hospitality.
OrderThe wood-fired pita with hummus. Then the lamb shawarma.
TipFounder Alon Shaya now runs Saba up the road at 5757 Magazine; both rooms are worth a visit.
Saba in New Orleans is Alon Shaya's 2018 Magazine Street follow-up to Shaya, a modern Israeli room at Nashville Avenue with the whipped feta and whole.
OrderThe whole roasted cauliflower with whipped feta. Then the lamb ragu hummus.
TipBrunch on Sundays runs the shakshuka and matzo ball brioche French toast; book a fortnight ahead.
