Steward About Saba:

Saba, meaning "Grandfather" in Hebrew, is the flagship restaurant of Pomegranate Hospitality, located in the vibrant Uptown neighborhood of New Orleans. Saba is more than just a dining experience; it is a journey through the rich culinary landscape of Israel, guided by the heritage and personal stories of Chef Alon Shaya. At Saba, we draw inspiration from the diverse influences of the Middle East, Europe, and North Africa, offering our guests a unique taste of this ever-evolving cuisine. From the moment our guests step in, they are immersed in the warmth of our wood-fired pita bread, baked just steps from their table, and the bold flavors of dishes that celebrate the rich culinary traditions of Bulgaria, Yemen, Syria, Morocco, Turkey, Palestine, and Greece. At Saba, we are committed to sourcing the freshest seafood, meats, and produce from local farms around New Orleans, LA. These ingredients are transformed into family-style platters that are both comforting and innovative, served in a setting that reflects our deep respect for the cultural intersections that have shaped our menu.
