Delicious middle eastern food with a modern vibe.
Came back to Bavel for another dinner. Had a couple cocktails, along with figs, baba ganoush, butter lettuce salad, mushroom skewers, and sweet potato flat bread. Everything was spot on as usual. Will definitely be back again!

Took my friend here and it was her first time.
She lovedddd the food we ordered. 0 problem with the food. We were sitting in the corner of the counter and it was pretty crowded. Servers were going back and forth in the little alley way and it was quite toasty in the area. Service was ok. A bit an
I'm still thinking about the meal I had at Bavel.
It's truly one of the best I've had in LA or anywhere else, and I'm already looking for an excuse to go back again. The space is cool, the staff are very friendly and knowledgable, and the service was really excellent overall. They w

Flavors that hit deep and plating that hits the 'Gram.
I finally made it to Bavel and now fully understand the hype. Every dish was beautifully composed and even more beautifully layered in flavor. The lamb was tender and smoky with just enough brightness from the green sauce, and the dips? Unreal. The b

This is a busy and beautiful restaurant! The food was spectacular with standouts being the Baba Ghanoush, Butter Lettuce, Grilled Octopus (special), and the Roasted Lamb Shawarma. The restaurant is open with a direct sightline to the kitchen, which w
Bavel - A Hidden Gem in the Arts District
Bavel is such a hidden gem in the Arts District, definitely not a tourist trap. The vibe is amazing great music, good energy, and the kind of place that feels special the second you walk in. We werenโt sure what to order, but the hostess guided us

Emily was our server and Pablo was our busser.
They were very attentive and maintained a clean table. Emily helped with the menu since we had allergies. The manager came by to say hi and the staff was always smiling at us. Cute decor. Fun music! And the food was insane! I recommend the cheesecake

I enjoyed the dishes at Bestia a lot more. The appetizers were better than my entree. Cocktails were just okay as well nothing on the menu sounded interesting. Service was very good though. Seems like an okay place to just come and share some appetiz

When it comes to dining out, I have always relied more on the kindness of strangers, namely restaurant critics, than on word of mouth from ordinary folk like myself (Yelpers and what not). Chefs/spouses Ori Menashe and Genevieve Gergis have 3 restau
Absolutely bang on
Quite simply the best place we are in LA. The theme here is cooking on a fire with mostly North African Arabic influence. Everything is amazing but my favourites: Duck Nduja hummus Lamb chops Flame grilled mushrooms Flatbreads Could go on really.

Dropped in for dinner with my boyfriend on a Tuesday.
We were able to get seats at the bar with only about a 20-minute wait. Our bartender/server was outstanding - she was so much fun. The food was great, as always. We started with a cocktail for him and a hot tea for me. The drink - the Aria (Tropical
Came here for a friend's birthday.
The interior of the restaurant was nice - if not, a bit crowded. The music was pretty loud so it was difficult to talk with friends. Street parking. Ordered the oyster mushroom skewer, prawns, bread, baba ghanoush hummus, celery root, and the dorade
Exceptional food, service and ambiance.

This is one of the most disgusting restaurant I have been to, their servings are way too small they make up their own Types of food that are creative but gross I would definitely not recommend eating here.

Duck hummus- 5/5 the best way to start this meal! Not only was the hummus great, the pita was also warm, soft, fluffy and oh so good! Prawns- 5/5 the perfect spice level, and perfect amount of tang. Paired wonderfully with the tzatziki sauce. Lamb-

Disgusting
They serving Arabic food and they are claiming that itโs Israeli. Food and culture appropriation at its worst form. not good.
Gorgeous, Delicious Food with Plenty for Vegetarians
We were lucky enough to score a table for 2 at Bavel ahead of a nearby event. We don't live anywhere near downtown so it's not an area we'd typically be dining in. Our experience at Bavel led me to the conclusion that it'd be worth heading downtown,
Expensive disappointment
Completely let down on this one - I was so excited to plan for a date night at Bavel during our vacation to LA! We arrived for our reservation for two on a Saturday evening, the restaurant interior looked stunning. To my surprise, the host seated us
Great Experience
Fantastic beautifully prepared food with an Israeli twist. Beautiful restaurant with both indoor and outdoor seating. Be sure to make a reservation.

My favorite restaurant in LA.
Amazing food and service. Great vibe. Can't go wrong with any of the food options but the MALAWACH is a must.
Hands down my favorite restaurant in LA at the moment.
This has been one of the hot spots for quite some months now, and it's totally worth it. That said, definitely book a reservation in advanced to secure a table!Bavel is Bestia's sister restaurant (same chefs), and serves Middle Eastern food. And just

Connect with users posting reservations for Bavel Los Angeles
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Bavel Los Angeles. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Bavel Los Angeles at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Bavel Los Angeles page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* PerceptiveWash44, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* PerceptiveWash44 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to PerceptiveWash44 for any questions Peter may have as PerceptiveWash44 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* PerceptiveWash44 now uses their connections at Bavel Los Angeles to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If PerceptiveWash44 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, PerceptiveWash44 receives the $200 reward which is credited to PerceptiveWash44's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Bavel Los Angeles!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
