Nobody’s Baby

Middle Eastern$

A southside bar for playful cocktails and crunchy-fluffy falafel.

A crew of northside pros from Joe’s Shoe Store have jumped the river with this dark den named after a Nick Cave tune. A one-page wine list covers exciting and established names and left-of-centre cocktails include a parmesan-washed vodka martini and a “Baby Brulee” with a frothy caramelised top. The current kitchen residency from Rocco’s Bologna Discoteca brings its hallowed meatball sub to the south.
