The one-time kosher restaurant Sababa Grille, on Durango Drive at Desert Inn Road, has closed its doors and will be replaced with an oyster bar.

Sababa once was a go-to spot for quick-casual kosher cuisine in the Desert Breeze Park neighborhood. The restaurant’s website is no longer active, redirecting to its Facebook page, where the most recent post is from December 2017.

A visit this week to the former Sababa location found renovations underway on the interior and a sign on the door advertising that a new concept, The Legends Oyster Bar & Grill, is coming soon.
