Rising Stars Chef Michael Rafidi and Sommelier Brent Kroll Will Open a Restaurant and Wine Bar in Navy Yard
PUBLISHED ON NOVEMBER 19, 2018
The 76-seat restaurant will be centered around a charcoal and wood-burning hearth, where Rafidi will turn out a seasonal, vegetable-heavy menu. Flavors will draw from the Levant region of the Eastern Mediterranean, which includes Lebanon, Israel, Syria, Jordan, and Palestine, where the majority of Rafidi’s family are from.
