Josh Katz cooks in Technicolor. [There is an] interplay of smoke and cumin and paprika; of sugar syrups and rose and pomegranate; of great cuts of meat, and sturdy vegetables surrendering themselves to the fire. -- Jay Rayner * The Guardian * The tray I consumed of smoked short-rib with date glaze, cauliflower shawarma, and beets with whipped feta was so delicious, I woke up the next day considering a house move. -- Grace Dent * The Evening Standard * We were particularly taken with the 'cauliflower shawarma': served whole, halved or quartered as if it were some particularly hardcore cut of offal, bathed in meaty exhalations from the grill, charred to a nutty crispness, suffused somehow with rosewater, slathered with tahini and strewn with pine nuts and [...] pomegranate seeds. -- Keith Miller * The Telegraph * The cool factor and quality of Berber & Q still marks it out from the crowds. -- Guy Dimond * Time Out *
