Meet our Navajo Fry Breads, an homage to the ancestral traditions Chef Louie carries forward.

🤎 Navajo Bison Fry Bread — ancestral flatbread, golden and pillowy, layered with tender ground bison and smoked salt.

🤎Navajo Calabasitas Fry Bread — that same golden flatbread, filled with summer squash, roasted corn, and herbs. Grounding, bright, and made with care.

Did you know we pour wines made by African and Indigenous producers? 🍷

From Zulu-owned vineyards in South Africa to Indigenous-owned estates in Santa Barbara, every bottle on our list was chosen with the same intention as everything on the plate.

Come in for dinner tonight and ask your host about our selection!

Zimbabwe has one of the most vibrant food cultures in the world, and this Sunday, Chef Kuda Grace is bringing it to Hollywood Blvd. 🇿🇼

Chef Kuda has been cooking since she was nine years old, learning traditional recipes from her mother and aunts in Zimbabwe. Now in Los Angeles as Chef Fellow at Flavors from Afar, she’s bringing that same heritage to the table.

Join us for the Zimbabwe Brunch Experience on Sunday, April 26 from 12–4 PM at Flavors from Afar. Expect a full afternoon of Zimbabwean flavors: sadza, magwinya, malva pudding with baobab ice cream, and the kind of warmth that makes you feel right at home.

Seats are limited — grab yours through the link in bio.

The Indian-Spiced Lamb Tartine is the kind of dish that makes you think about how far food travels.

An open-faced sandwich layered with toasted cumin yogurt, onion chutney, and housemade quick pickles — each element rooted in a culinary tradition that has moved, adapted, and evolved across continents and kitchens.

Come find it at the table 🧡

Some dishes carry a whole world in a single bite. Our Kenyan Coconut Tilapia is one of them — tilapia simmered in a fragrant coconut-tomato broth with garlic, ginger, and warm African spices, served on a bed of cilantro rice. Light, creamy, and deeply comforting. Come find it at the table. ❤️

Our kitchen is now open Monday through Thursday until 8pm, with global wine and NA beverages until 9pm.
