Nuba
Tucked under the landmark Dominion Building, this hopping subterranean Lebanese restaurant attracts budget noshers and cool hipsters in equal measure. If you’re not sure what to go for, have the good-value falafel plate ($9), heaped with hummus, taboulleh, salad, pita and brown rice. It’ll make you realize what wholesome, made-from-scratch food is supposed to taste like. More substantial fare – grilled lamb, Cornish hen etc – has been added to the menu since the eatery moved from its hole-in-the-wall site across the street, and there’s also regular live music. Excellent service.

Sanafir
A beacon among Granville St’s grubby sex shops, this loungey, Bedouin-themed eatery is dripping with North African style. But it’s not all about looks. The menu’s small plates are designed for sharing and range from wine-braised short ribs to Indian-spiced scallops. Head to the decadent mezzanine level where you can lay down and feed like royalty. It’s packed on weekend evenings, so you might have to sample a few cocktails at the bar as you await your table.
