CELEBRATE
WITH FRIENDS, FAMILY OR WORK COLLEAGUES
PICK UP OR DELIVERY
The restaurant is housed in a ground floor corner of the Limestone clad Aga Khan Centre building, designed by world renowned, Pritzker prize-winning architect Fumihiko Maki. A stones throw from Coal Drops Yard and Granary Square, Kings Cross, the outside terrace faces the grassy meadow of Lewis Cubitt Walk and the hotly anticipated Persian-inspired Jellicoe Gardens by award winning landscape architect Tom Stuart-Smith.
Perch at the bar or counter dining seats to watch our chefs at work and linger over a Levantine-inspired cocktail or soda, hunker down in one of our banquettes or gather around our communal dining table for a middle-eastern inspired feast. We’ll be serving our vibrant array of colourful meze and small plates, flatbreads from the clay oven and grass fed meat and day-boat fish from the charcoal grill. Our doors are open from lunch through to dinner, drop by any time and join the hubbub.

We have implemented a number of enhanced health and safety procedures to keep our teams and guests safe.
