Casbah Description:
Features Mediterranean and North African cuisine in Shadyside. The bar offers a particularly extensive list of wines by the glass.
This Mediterranean restaurant and wine bar runs a serious, creative kitchen. Its attractive décor utilizes local artists in metal, ceramics, leather and glass. Well-dressed East End ladies lunch here. Young professionals meet at the end of the business day to tap into premium martinis. There's an extensive list of wines by the glass, as well as fine cheese sampler platters. Dinner caters to smart casual couples and small groups of all ages. The daily-changing, market-based menu draws flavors from Italy, France, Spain, Greece, Turkey and North Africa. Expect sophisticated preparations of pastas, salads, seafood and duck. Mussels appear in different guises, as does Elysian Fields organic lamb. You can order a steak or something more adventurous such as sumac-crusted seared sea scallops with baba ghanouj and preserved lemon oil. Vegetarians have good options. House-made desserts are variations on a comfort theme: crème brûlée, warm bread pudding, and ice creams and sorbets. Sunday brunch mixes the traditional with innovative items.
