Fodor's Review:

Tiny Baraka may be atmospherically challenged, but after a few bites you won't care. Chef-owner Alia Rejeb was born in France and raised in Tunisia -- a fact reflected sharply in her menu. Imagine a smoky, creamy dish of peppers awakened with mint, oregano, and cheese (mechouia) or a spice-laden deep-chocolate cake, redolent of star anise. Make a meal from the selection of small plates or try an entrée of couscous or marinated vegetables. No alcohol is served.
