Nestled in the heart of Los Angeles’ Arts District, Bavel is a culinary gem by celebrated chefs Ori Menashe and Genevieve Gergis, the duo behind the acclaimed Bestia. At Bavel, they pay homage to their Middle Eastern heritage, offering a modern, elevated take on traditional flavors. The menu showcases a vibrant array of dishes inspired by countries such as Israel, Morocco, Turkey, and Egypt. Signature dishes like the lamb neck shawarma, slow-roasted as it soaks in bold spices, and the silky hummus topped with duck ‘nduja, highlight their unique approach to the cuisine.
The ambiance is equally captivating, with lush greenery draping the industrial-chic space, creating a warm, inviting setting that feels worlds away from the bustling city. Complementing the dishes is an expertly curated wine and cocktail list, with drinks that draw on Mediterranean ingredients to enhance the dining experience. Whether you’re looking for a romantic night out or an indulgent meal with friends, Bavel is a must-visit destination for adventurous food lovers.
