What started as a hipster craze seems to be going mainstream. Falafel and hummus are the new sushi and Izia Grill is embracing the trend. It’s a loosely Jewish-themed restaurant on the site of a much-loved Italian place, and while the new décor is hardly revolutionary the change in cuisine is striking. Aside from the falafel, a wide range of hot dogs also get a thumbs-up. Most dishes come in snack-sized portions, but usually have snack-sized price tags attached. It’s sit-down street food rather than fine dining, but it works well as a neighborhood café. Also at Sushchevskaya ul. 27/1 (metro Mendeleevskaya).
