The Spot
Suraya operates as three connected spaces in Fishtown: a full-service restaurant, a daytime market and café, and a seasonal garden. The restaurant serves classical and modern Levant-inspired dishes, from mezze like baba ganoush to offerings off the wood-fired grill, paired with a wine and arak collection and cocktails named for Lebanese poet Khalil Gibran. Reviewers frequently mention the lamb, kebab, yellowtail, and a tasting menu among the standouts.

The adjacent Market functions as a modern-day bazaar, serving man'oushe, salads, sandwiches, and house-made French and Levantine pastries and cakes alongside Reanimator coffee, with a marketplace stocked in spices, olive oil, cookbooks, and housewares. From April through October, the Garden opens as an outdoor space for drinks and meals, with music from classical Arab artists like Fairuz and Farid El Atrash setting the tone.

Suraya was selected in the Michelin Guide for 2025 and was a James Beard Foundation semifinalist for Outstanding Pastry Chef in 2019.
