Saba is chef Alon Shaya's modern Israeli restaurant on Magazine Street in Uptown New Orleans, the flagship of his Pomegranate Hospitality group (the name means "grandfather" in Hebrew). Known for blistered wood-fired pita and James Beard Award-winning Mediterranean cooking, it opened in 2018 and earned a 2025 Michelin Bib Gourmand. Its beverage program includes a deliberate non-alcoholic offering built around gazoz — a sparkling Turkish-style soda made in house with fresh fruit, house syrups, and seltzer, with flavors that rotate seasonally (recent examples include watermelon basil, cucumber agave, and pineapple shrub). The menu also stocks Athletic Brewing's Upside Dawn non-alcoholic beer, and the zero-proof drinks feature during the Wednesday–Friday happy hour.
