AI Summary

Shane Delia's subterranean CBD room. Middle Eastern soufra banquets in an intimate, moody space.

Dark, moody and subterranean with gold-flecked decor and an intimate, almost nightclub-like feel. reviewers describe it as electric and transporting, though the low lighting draws recurring complaints about reading the menu.

A hidden underground dining room, a complimentary spice bag and lavender hand-rinse ritual, sommelier-guided wine and non-alcoholic pairings, candle-on-dessert touches for celebrations, and a rotating seasonal lunch bowl series reflecting different chefs' heritage.

A modern, chef-driven reinterpretation of Middle Eastern cuisine; most reviewers feel transported, though at least one reviewer with Persian heritage felt a dish billed as Persian didn't reflect that cuisine.

Expensive, with set menus from roughly $85-$190pp plus a Sunday surcharge, but most reviewers feel the quality, presentation and service justify the price; a minority found portions or execution didn't match the cost.
