Why they're an Icon
Executive chef: Ori Menashe and Genevieve Gergis
MICHELIN Plate
2022
From the OpenTable editors: Bavel, with its bright, cavernous space outfitted with tons of greenery and stunning Middle Eastern fare from Ori and Genevieve Menashe of Bestia, is an escape in the heart of the Arts District. Dredge blistered housemade pitas through spreads like duck ‘nduja-topped hummus and baba ganoush made with aubergine and beets before moving on to beef cheek tagines, and you won't be disappointed.
