Description

The venerable Fly Trap received a gustatory jolt when Hoss Zaré moved in, bringing his Persian-Mediterranean fireworks. Check out the pistachio meatballs with harissa-honey glaze, the roasted marrow bones with bergamot preserves, or the squash stuffed with quince, orzo, and cinnamon. The Mediterranean wine list features bottles from Israel, Lebanon, and Corsica in addition to all the usual wine regions. The Fly Trap side of the equation is reflected in the venue's vintage pressed-tin ceilings, burnished woodwork, and classic San Francisco drinks. At lunchtime, Zare offers an inexpensive, innovative menu of Persian wraps, soups, and salads.
