From the OpenTable editors: Of Ori and Genevieve Menashe’s three restaurants, Saffy’s is the most laid-back—but still has a laser focus on technique. Dig into shareable plates like wood-fired lamb and beef shawarma, hearth-grilled lobster tail skewers, and 18-hour spiced short rib in a gorgeous dining room that pays homage to mid-century Morocco. Playful cocktails and a Mediterranean-focused wine list add to the always-lively vibe.

    Every bite was a dream. This place (from the owners of my favorite LA restaurant, Bavel) is like the cool younger sibling of Bavel. It's not as grand, but the food is almost just as good, and it's a lot more loud and fun. Great night all around.

    Jess, our server was a gem! The food was quite good, but the noise level was difficult. We had not seen each other for several years, so "getting caught up" was the priority. Having said this, we were the oldest people there. Folks in their 20's and 30's didn't seem to mind one bit. Appreciated how kind the staff were. Loved our beef skewers and the humus dip with the toasted Challah.

    Again, Saffy’s overdelivers! WONDERFUL food, thoughtful cocktails, professional and gracious service, and a lively dining room. Over and over, Saffy’s is serving some of the best restaurant meals in Los Angeles.

    The food at Saffy’s is always spot on. We love all of our regular dishes as well as the new seasonal ones. The snapper is my absolute favorite. And the banana cake is such a delicious way to end our perfect meal.

    We’ve been to Saffy’s about 7-8 times since it opened and it hasn’t lost a single step. We took our family this past week and were blown away by the food and the service.

    Having been to Bavel many times, it was nice to try Saffy's. While there are some similarities, I loved the uniques food -- the Saffron Muscles, Humus choices and kabob's are a must-- the less noisy and smaller sized restaurant was appreciated. The menu offered wonderful choices. The vibe was casual and it felt like a neighborhood place rather than a must be seen restaurant. Highly recommend going to Saffy's.
